Chapter 462: Chapter 288: What did Lin Chuan give her to eat?_2

Lin Chuan just watched her like that, not speaking, his face carrying a faint smile.

After a long while,

Yu Qin couldn’t help but ask, “You, how have you changed?”

Lin Chuan smiled.

This question was Yu Qin’s doubt. As long as she doubted, then what followed became much simpler.

So,

he answered, “Everyone has another side to their face, and you have one too, don’t you?”

“Do I have one too?” Yu Qin was slightly startled.

“Actually, you are the same as me. It’s just that you went the wrong way, or rather, your birth meant that you would walk this path. Have you ever thought, do you really like being an arms dealer?” Lin Chuan asked in a gentle and calm tone.

Yu Qin’s brows furrowed slightly.

Her thoughts were shaken by Mr. Lin, and she couldn’t help but mutter, “Do I like it? I don’t know.”

“If you don’t know, how can you talk about liking it?” Lin Chuan countered.

“What can I do if I don’t like it?”

Yu Qin smiled somewhat helplessly.

“If you don’t like it, you can’t do much about it, nor can it change your current situation,” Lin Chuan candidly told her.

“With my sins, even if I confess to gain leniency, it would still be the death penalty, right?” she asked.

Lin Chuan nodded, “Yes, the death penalty, and the application for the science and technology patent you once used on your sister, converting the death penalty to a suspended death sentence, no longer works.”

Yu Qin raised her head and looked at the empty ceiling, her eyes showing a trace of melancholy, “So, you have now become Mr. Lin, coming to find me, what is it for then? If you really knew me, I wouldn’t disclose any information about the Morgan Group.”

“You don’t want to believe that I am Mr. Lin, but you don’t know that Lin Chuan is the me in dreams,” Lin Chuan picked up her words and continued, “I’ve come to see you today, just to see if my opponent, and also my friend, can find that pure land in your heart at the last moment of life.”

“Pure land?” Upon hearing this term, Yu Qin chuckled coldly, “My heart has long been devoid of any pure land, not to mention finding it.”

Lin Chuan shook his head, “If you don’t yearn for a pure land, why then, in ‘Arms Tycoon’, do you continuously seek resonance, seeking a reason that justifies and rationalizes your actions?”

Yu Qin remained silent.

This sentence laid her heart’s pretenses bare.

Yes.

Every villain constantly persuades themselves that what they do is right, is rational, and in order to do so, they even seek some absurd spiritual anchor.

Be it praying to Buddha or believing in God, or through various other means to prove the righteousness of their actions, all for the sake of a peaceful heart.

If they cannot find the so-called rationality, the correctness, then they will spend their lives in a torment of guilt and self-reproach.

Yu Qin’s way of seeking was peculiar.

Money and benefits could no longer rationalize her actions.

She tried to interpret the rationality and correctness of her behavior through a novel.

But ‘Arms Tycoon’ ultimately did not build the ‘Utopia’ she hoped to see, comforting herself at the time that Mr. Lin didn’t make it, but she could.

Clearly, now in the conversation with Lin Chuan, she had failed.

Failed utterly!

Lin Chuan mercilessly tore through her facade, plunging her into a painful soul torment.

These were intangible things.

But the pain was ten to a hundred times worse than physical pain!

“Do you really want to leave this world with such pain?” Lin Chuan asked again.

“What else can I do?”

Yu Qin’s face showed resignation, and her handcuffed hands unconsciously clenched.

“You need redemption!” Lin Chuan said firmly.

“Bullshit!”

Yu Qin’s thoughts seemed to collide, “I don’t need redemption, and there’s no need to differentiate right from wrong in what I’ve done.”

Lin Chuan poured her a glass of water and pushed it in front of her, “Is that so?”

She stared at the cup of water in front of her, from turmoil to calm.

She knew that in front of Mr. Lin, she couldn’t stand her ground.

Because.

The last outcome for Mr. Lin was not as she wished.

Perhaps she had predicted this day would come, just not so soon.

Lin Chuan didn’t speak anymore.

Yu Qin also didn’t speak.

The two of them just sat there, dry, until Yu Qin’s breathing calmed down, and Lin Chuan slowly stood up, “I think, you’ve found that plot of pure land.”

Yu Qin raised her head and looked at Lin Chuan, heaving a light sigh.
