Outside the metal door, the police heard the intense commotion inside and instantly rushed in to separate the two of them.
Yi Kun tidied his collar proudly. There was no longer any warmth on his face. “Do you think she died because of this? You’re too naive.”
“What did you say?” Yi Che gritted his teeth and wanted to rush up to him to ask him. However, the police had already taken Yi Kun away to avoid an accident.
Yi Che was the only one left in the reception room. He stood rooted to the ground and replayed the last sentence Yi Kun left in his mind in disbelief.
If this was not the secret her mother had discovered, what did she know that Yi Kun would kill her so cruelly?’
In the Blood Oath Base office, Liu Ran knelt on the ground with a plop. Her face was pale. “Master, I’m sorry. Please forgive me for acting on my own for the past few years.”
Yi Zheng leaned lazily on the chair and played with Shi Man’s fair and slender hand with his well-defined fingers. He glanced sideways at the woman kneeling on the ground. “Get up. I didn’t come to talk to you about this.”
Liu Ran looked at Tang Zhe in surprise. After seeing him nod at her, she stood up nervously and stood rooted to the ground.
Shi Man retracted her hand that he kept fiddling with and rolled her eyes at him speechlessly. When she looked at Liu Ran, she put on a pleasant smile. “1 know why you stayed by Yi Che’s side. 1 called you here today to tell you about my decision with Yi Zheng.”
She told Liu Ran how Yi Zheng had decided to compensate her and let her regain her freedom.
Liu Ran stood quietly on the spot and listened. She shook her head with a lonely expression. “No, I don’t need these compensations. 1 want to stay.”
She raised her head abruptly and looked at the two of them pleadingly. “I still want to stay. I won’t expose my connections to Blood Oath with Yi Che. 1’11 keep my mouth shut and not cause trouble for Master. I just hope that you won’t send me away.”
Shi Man seemed to have expected her to say this. She silently took out a bank card from her pocket and placed it in front of her. “Take the money here first. If you regret it in the future, at least there will be enough money for you to settle down.”
“I…” Liu Rail’s eyes gradually turned red, and the hand holding the bank card trembled slightly.
After being by Yi Kun’s side for a long time, she was already used to the darkness of the human heart. She was already a dirty person. She had never thought that she could be treated so gently.
Shi Man sympathized with her, but she was helpless against her decision. She could only persuade her softly, “Yi Kun has fallen. Although Yi Che is in charge of the company, he might not be your best choice. 1 hope you can consider your future carefully.”
“I’ve thought about it. I want to stay.” Liu Ran bit her lower lip firmly, her eyes filled with anticipation for the future.
Shi Man couldn’t persuade her anymore. She smiled helplessly and said, “Alright, in that case, from now on, you have nothing to do with Blood Oath. Everything you do in the future isn’t for Yi Zheng. Do you understand?”
The blood on Liu Ran’s face receded in an instant. She knelt on the ground in shock and begged, “Master, are you blaming me for taking matters into my own hands, so you don’t plan to want me anymore? 1 can still do many things for the Blood Oath. I don’t want to leave!”
Shi Man stood up and helped her up helplessly. She patted her shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. 1 don’t mean to let Yi Zheng draw a line with you.”
Hope reignited in Liu Ran’s eyes. She grabbed her hand urgently and said, “Don’t chase me away, okay? Blood Oath is like my home. 1 don’t want to be homeless.”
“You’ve already said that Blood Oath is your home. How can we bear to use you to do those things again?” Shi Man sighed and made things clear. “What I meant just now was that you’ll be a free person in the future. You don’t have to do anything you don’t want for anyone else, but if you need it, Blood Oath and 1 will provide you with the help you want at any time.”
Liu Ran widened her eyes in disbelief. She turned to Tang Zhe, hoping to see the answer in his eyes.
Tang Zhe also felt sorry for Liu Ran’s encounters all these years. He touched his nose and said seriously, “Madam doesn’t mean that she doesn’t want you anymore, but she wants you to regain your freedom and have a way out at any time.”
“This is a real home, isn’t it?” Shi Man hugged her shoulder and her magnetic and seductive voice exploded in her ear. “You don’t have to be burdened anymore in the future. You can do whatever you want. If you need anything, you can come and look for me.”
Liu Ran held her hand back and her eyes turned red with gratitude. “Thank you. Don’t worry, I will never do anything to let Blood Oath down. I will live as a Blood Oath member and die as one.”
“Alright, you just have to remember that you can be with Yi Che as much as you want now, but you can also leave him at any time.”
Shi Man was only worried that she would jump into another fire pit, so when she came out of Yi Che’s office, she secretly slipped her a note and asked her to meet them..
