Chapter 15 Remember him
Facing my questioning, the man put away his arrogant expression for the first time, stood still for a moment, and said, “I am Lin Chen? Who are you?”
I sneered and without saying a word, I rushed over.
Is this the person that Irene kept thinking about until the end? The person that she couldn’t let go of? The answer that this person gave Irene was that she wasn’t one more? It didn’t matter to bring her along?
I didn’t understand love before, but after experiencing it with Ruoxue, I realized how difficult it is. I really feel that it’s not worth it for Irene to be trampled on like this.
My fist slammed into Lin Chen’s face. I didn’t hold back at all. Lin Chen took a few steps back, and then his nose started bleeding. I guess he was also a proud person. He didn’t even ask why I was hitting him, and he rushed over angrily and started fighting with me.
As soon as we started fighting, I realized that Lin Chen was also a martial arts expert. At least he had practiced internal martial arts since childhood to strengthen his body. His fists were as fast and accurate as mine, and every punch I felt the strength of the blow entering my body. The pain was indescribable.
However, judging from his expression, he wasn’t feeling any better.
Just as we were fighting, a foot appeared from nowhere and kicked Lin Chen in the stomach, knocking him to the ground and leaving him gasping for air.
When I looked back, it was Master Hui who had done it.
“Don’t bully a monk who doesn’t know love. You’re the one who deserves a beating,” said Master Hui, standing beside me with a majestic air.
For the first time, I thought that this uncle Hui, who was as lewd as my master, was really handsome.
“Heh heh heh…” Lin Chen laughed a few times on the ground, then stood up. His proud face looked very disheveled after fighting with me.
He stood up, touched his face, and said, “Do you want to bully the weak with the strong? Otherwise, let’s go out of the village and move our hands and feet? I came alone to take Irene away. Do you think you will strike when you get the chance? Tell Irene to come out and talk to me.”
I didn’t even bother to talk to him, and Master Hui didn’t bother to answer him either. He stood aside with me.
At this time, Irene’s brother stood up. He was holding Irene in his arms, who had already died. Everyone had heard Lin Chen’s words, and Irene’s brother was no exception.
Her brother said in grief, “You want to take my sister away? My sister is like this, do you still want her? You’d better not let me know that my sister’s death is related to you, otherwise I will kill you even if I have to die trying.”
Eileen’s brother did not hear the name that Eileen had mumbled at the end, so he could not yet judge that Eileen’s death might really be related to Lin Chen, but only that Lin Chen’s arrogant words had provoked him.
I naturally won’t talk about this. The dead are dead. With death, all grudges come to an end. I guess Irene chose this way because she wanted to completely let go. I can’t use these things to provoke the living.
Lin Chen froze. He saw Irene, but it was already a dead Irene. I saw his face twitch twice, then he walked toward Irene’s brother, step by step, in a daze.
Someone stopped him, and he shouted angrily, “Get out of here.”
He looked like a beast about to choose someone to devour, and the next moment he was going to go crazy. The people who stopped him subconsciously retreated, and he seemed to be unable to see anything, just walking step by step towards Irene’s brother.
My heart was slightly relieved. From Lin Chen’s behavior, no matter how much he loved Irene, at least he didn’t have no feelings for her.
Lin Chen walked up to Irene’s brother and asked in a trembling voice, “Is she dead?”
Eileen’s brother said, “Can’t you see for yourself? My sister has already gone.”
Lin Chen reached out and touched Irene’s bloodied face, his face full of disbelief. I stood aside and heard Lin Chen mutter to himself, “How dare you die? Did I say I wouldn’t come? Did I say I didn’t want you? You’re stupid. You must be someone who can’t let go of this village. You’re so stupid! I’m not here to pick you up? Why are you dying? Why are you dying?”
Lin Chen said, his emotions seemed to be out of control, and he reached out to grab Irene’s body. Irene’s brother was no match for Lin Chen, and he was about to be overthrown by Lin Chen, carrying Irene’s body…
I once again wanted to rush over, I would not allow Lin Chen to take Irene like this, but at this time, a hand grabbed Lin Chen, and when I looked, it was my master.
“You go down. Just as you said, we will move our hands and feet outside the village. You are not allowed to take Irene away.” My master said this.
Lin Chen looked at his master with a cold stare and asked in a low voice, “What makes you think you can?”
Master Lin Chen did not pay any attention to Lin Chen at all, but just said, “The dead are gone, and I don’t want to say anything else. You are not qualified to take her away.”
I guess he sensed my master’s anger beneath his calmness, and I guess Lin Chen was a little afraid of my master. He didn’t attack, but took a deep breath and said to my master, “She is not my only woman, but she is the woman I care about the most. This was unexpected at first. Let me take her away. She also wants to go with me.”
My master shook his head and said, “If she wanted to go with you, she wouldn’t have chosen to commit suicide. Leave. Otherwise, you’ll stay here forever!”
I don’t know what arrangements and plans my master has. These days, I’ve been too sweet to care about anything else, but it seems that my master and the others have already made some arrangements, and they don’t want to fight Lin Chen here.
But my master is just like me, a passionate person at heart. We both have impulsive personalities, and if we aren’t careful, we might do things on our own accord. My master is warning Lin Chen that if he doesn’t leave, he will die here.
Lin Chen looked at my master with anger and hatred, and suddenly burst into laughter. He laughed wildly, then turned and left, and his wild voice drifted into everyone’s ears again: “Let Irene stay with you for a while. I’ll wait for you at the foot of the mountain. I’m taking Irene away.”
Master sighed and then said to Irene’s brother, “The girl has already gone. You should prepare for her funeral. Don’t leave her alone on the road to the underworld. We’ll go and take care of some things, and then we’ll come back to burn a stick of incense for her.”
I felt sad. That lively, passionate girl was about to ask me to burn incense for her. At the same time, I despised Lin Chen. How much love is there? In the end, it is more important to be yourself.
If I were a fool like Xue, I would probably give up my life and take my lover with me, even if it was just a corpse.
However, I am crazy, and Lin Chen is more normal.
I stood there in a daze, thinking of Ru Xue and Irene. How can love be so bitter? But if love has a little sweetness, people in this world are still willing to trade ten times the bitterness for a little sweetness.
This is the only thing in the world that people don’t care about the gains and losses, because of love.
The master sighed and walked over to me, saying, “Chengyi, remember this Lin Chen. Maybe you’ll get entangled with this organization in the future. This Lin Chen is much more powerful than Xiao Chengqian. He will be your sworn enemy.”
Is Lin Chen also from the Shan family? Is he more powerful than Xiao Chengqian? Then why isn’t he given the surname Cheng? I had too many questions about that organization, but this was obviously not the time to ask.
The people had already dispersed, and Irene’s family had taken Irene’s body back.
At this time, the bloodstains left by Irene on the ground were so glaring. Is this the splendor of love at its peak? It was so heartbreaking. I had a vague realization in my heart, and I was also moved by my master.
He did not say one thing in front of many people, especially Irene’s family, and that is that Irene may be a traitor in this village.
Maybe Master knew it all along, but he never said anything until the end. This was the best way to show his respect for Irene.
I then understood why Master kept calling her a silly girl.
Damn love, I sighed, and at the same time, I felt sorry for the rationality of me and Ruixue. But in the face of love, in the end, was Irene right or was I and Ruixue right? I was afraid that there would be no answer even after a thousand years.
Seeing me in a daze, the master didn’t say anything, but took the lead and said to me, “Follow me. We’re going down the mountain.”
