Chapter 1072: The Death of Lin Jin
by xennovel“I’ve become Superman now.”
Huo Xiao put down the coffee table, her face full of disbelief.
After injecting the genetic serum, Huo Xiao couldn’t wait to experiment.
She lunged at Xu Shaochen’s head, kissing his cheek, “Little Dad, I love you to death.”
“Alright, get off me. You got slobber on my face.”
Xu Shaochen pushed her away, glancing sideways at Huo Ying.
Huo Ying rolled her eyes.
Xu Shaochen chuckled awkwardly, hurriedly changing the subject, “What shall we eat later? I’m a bit hungry.”
“I’ll check the kitchen to see what’s available. You play with Xiaoxiao.”
Huo Ying said, straightening her skirt as she headed to the kitchen.
“Little Dad, where did you get such good stuff? You even got undiluted original serum.”
Huo Xiao shamelessly cuddled into Xu Shaochen’s arms, her eyes filled with admiration.
“I’m a rich man, after all. I’ve got money superpowers.”
Xu Shaochen laughed, playing with Huo Xiao’s long hair draped behind her.
Huo Xiao pouted, “I’m Superman now too.”
“Haha, youth.”
Xu Shaochen sneered, thinking that no Superman could rival his money powers.
“Lately, some enemies have targeted me. Be careful and watch out for strangers.”
Xu Shaochen’s face turned serious.
His change of mood was so fast that Huo Xiao could only nod dumbly.
“Alas, being handsome is such a pain. Everyone envies my unparalleled charm.”
Xu Shaochen sighed, speaking a plain truth to lighten the mood.
“Pfft—”
Seeing him flaunt shamelessly, Huo Xiao couldn’t help but laugh, whispering in Xu Shaochen’s ear, “I want to watch a movie tonight and not go home to sleep.”
This wasn’t a hint anymore; it was an outright declaration.
“Xiaoxiao, why do you always crave me? You are cheap.”
Xu Shaochen shivered, feeling like a spiritual monk, with all the female demons wanting him.
Huo Xiao rolled her eyes, biting her teeth, “If you don’t crave me, you’re a eunuch.”
She couldn’t believe her first time throwing herself at a man could fail!
“I’ll tell you a secret,” Xu Shaochen said mischievously, “I actually like men.”
“So what? I like men too,” Huo Xiao pouted.
Xu Shaochen: “……..”
What kind of twisted logic is that?
9 PM.
Compared to the day, the hospital was much quieter.
In Lin Jin’s VIP single room, even doctors and nurses walked quietly, ensuring there was no noise.
At 9:05 PM.
A male doctor, wearing a white lab coat and a mask, holding a notebook appeared at the corridor’s end.
He nodded to other doctors and nurses he met along the way.
He made his way unhurriedly to Lin Jin’s room.
“Knock, knock, knock…”
He gently knocked on the door, speaking softly, “Mr. Lin, are you resting?”
“Not yet, come in.”
Lin Jin’s voice came from inside.
The doctor opened the door and entered, closing it behind him.
“What’s the matter?”
Lin Jin asked.
“Mr. Lin, the hospital doesn’t recommend discharge for your condition, but it’s up to you.”
“Still, I must perform a final check on your arm before you leave.”
The doctor spoke gently while moving to Lin Jin’s bedside.
“What a hassle, do what you need.”
Lin Jin grumbled but knew it was for his good, so he didn’t refuse.
“Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Lin.”
The doctor nodded, opening his notebook to reveal a small scalpel.
“Hurry up, stop dawdling.”
Lin Jin impatiently urged, turning his head away.
“Alright, Mr. Lin, I’ll be quick.”
The doctor nodded, bending over with the scalpel in hand.
“You —”
Lin Jin waiting, saw no action, was about to speak when his eyes suddenly widened.
“Slice—”
The scalpel slid across the neck, blood splattered on the notebook.
“You… ah—ah—”
Lin Jin tried to speak, but his throat only let out wind, no sound.
Finally, he unwillingly took his last breath, eyes wide open.
The doctor tugged the cover up over Lin Jin with gloved hands.
Having done everything, he leisurely left.
Just like his arrival.
Walking calmly in the corridor, nodding to nurses and doctors.
Exited the hospital, boarded a dilapidated black Lingdu, removed his lab coat and mask showing Zhang Yuan’s unremarkable face.
His face was full of sweat; inside, he wasn’t as calm as he appeared.
After all, it was his first time doing such a thing.
“Phew—”
Zhang Yuan exhaled deeply, gripping the steering wheel.
After a moment, the dilapidated Lingdu sped away.
From this moment, he was truly changed.
Twenty minutes later.
Lin Hao and Lin Wei arrived at the hospital to take Lin Jin to the airport.
“Still sleeping at this hour?”
Pushing open the room door, looking at the thoroughly covered Lin Jin, Lin Hao frowned.
He lifted the cover, instantly stunned.
“Jin’er, my son!”
Lin Hao instantly burst into tears.
No matter how bad Lin Jin was, he was his own son. Recall how he’d rather cripple Lin Jin’s hand than let him die.
But now, Lin Jin was dead.
“Xu Shaochen! Xu Shaochen! We are at odds now!”
Lin Hao shouted hysterically.
He immediately put this on Xu Shaochen’s head.
As Lin Jin’s actions were enough to incite Xu Shaochen to kill.
“Dad, mind your words.”
Lin Wei’s face changed but secretly felt relieved. Lin Jin was finally dead.
“I hate it, I hate it!”
Lin Hao hated Xu Shaochen but was helpless.
The dead were gone, but the living must go on.
Lin Jin was dead; he couldn’t let the entire Lin Family be buried with him.
Although he suspected Xu Shaochen, he kept it inside. When facing Xu Shaochen, he’d act as if nothing happened.
Without strength for revenge, he’d keep this hatred deep inside.
