I Don't Want to Be a Charmboy【Quick Wear】

Chapter 242 The Miao Youth is a Proud Male Supporting Character (9)

Lin Shen's eyes secretly wandered over Jin Xu'an. He noticed that Jin Xu'an's face was still pale, no different from the last time they met.

His observation was meticulous and cautious, fearing that if he looked at her for too long he would attract Jin Xu'an's attention.

After a few glances, Lin Shen calmly looked away, secretly alert in his heart, determined not to let Jin Xu'an discover his true identity.

Jin Xu'an finally put down the book in his hand, raised his head, glanced at the people present, and asked, "Is everyone registered?"

The prefect nodded quickly, indicating that everything had been handled according to Jin Xu'an's instructions.

Jin Xu'an frowned slightly and said nothing. His fingers tapped lightly on the table, which was particularly clear in the quiet room.

"Take it back." Jin Xu'an handed the book in his hand to the prefect, who took it respectfully, with beads of sweat already oozing out of his forehead.

He asked cautiously, "Sir, are you looking for someone?"

Jin Xu'an did not answer immediately, but looked up at Lin Shen, with a glimmer of inquiry in his eyes. "Well, find a very important person."

Lin Shen remained expressionless, as if in a daze, and did not attract anyone's attention.

Upon seeing this, the prefect nodded and prepared to retreat with Lin Shen.

Jin Xu'an nodded slightly to show his consent.

Just as Lin Shen was about to leave with the governor, Jin Xu'an's voice came from behind him: "You stay."

The prefect and Lin Shen turned around at the same time, only to see Jin Xu'an's eyes fixed on Lin Shen.

The prefect's heart skipped a beat. He widened his eyes and looked at Lin Shen, but Lin Shen didn't react at all.

Jin Xu'an's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a hint of smile, but his voice was a little cold: "Why? Don't want to?"

The governor nodded and bowed, saying, "Yes, yes."

He looked at Lin Shen, but Lin Shen just narrowed his eyes, thinking to himself: Could it be that he saw through his disguise and recognized that he was the one who assassinated him? Impossible, he had already disguised himself beyond recognition, so he had to see what he wanted to do first.

Thinking of this, Lin Shen nodded. The prefect then breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retreated.

Only Lin Shen and Jin Xu'an were left in the room.

Jin Xu'an's eyes looked back and forth at Lin Shen, while Lin Shen stood there blankly, ignoring Jin Xu'an's scrutiny.

After a while, Jin Xu'an said, "Sit down."

Lin Shen didn't move, but turned his head and looked at Jin Xu'an seriously.

Jin Xu'an felt a little uncomfortable under Lin Shen's gaze. He dodged his gaze slightly and said again, "Sit down."

Lin Shen hesitated for a moment, but since Jin Xu'an asked him to sit down, he no longer insisted.

He sat down slowly, and the two of them sat face to face, with a teapot and teacups on the table.

Jin Xu'an poured a cup of tea for Lin Shen, poured himself a cup, and then began to taste the tea seriously.

Lin Shen didn't drink it. He really couldn't figure out Jin Xu'an's intention. According to the original plot, Jin Xu'an did not leave him alone.

Jin Xu'an's voice echoed in the quiet room, causing Lin Shen to be stunned for a moment.

He raised his eyes and looked directly into Jin Xu'an's eyes. Jin Xu'an's eyes were full of curiosity and inquiry, as well as complex emotions that Lin Shen could not understand, but at least, he did not sense any malice.

Lin Shen pointed to his mouth, indicating that he couldn't speak.

Jin Xu'an was stunned, then he remembered his "muteness". He secretly regretted for a few seconds, then pursed his lips and said, "I'll talk, and you're responsible for nodding or shaking your head, understand?"

Lin Shen hesitated for a moment. Although he didn't know Jin Xu'an's intention, he decided to go along with the other party's wishes and nodded obediently.

Jin Xu'an looked at Lin Shen and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

"Are you really his nephew?" Jin Xu'an asked. Both of them knew who "he" was referring to.

Lin Shen thought about it for a while, then nodded.

Jin Xu'an sighed, still smiling, and said, "What a bad boy! Lying is not right, Fu Shen."

Jin Xu'an's words were like a thunderclap, and Lin Shen's heart seemed to stop beating at that moment.

He pretended not to understand and continued looking at Jin Xu'an.

Jin Xu'an stared at him closely, trying to find any flaws in his eyes, but Lin Shen's performance was too perfect and there was no flaw at all.

Precisely because of this perfection, Jin Xu'an's doubts became even stronger.

Jin Xu'an laughed softly and drank a few sips of tea. The smile on his lips was particularly dazzling in the sunlight. "I didn't mean to kill you that day."

There seemed to be a hint of pain in the man's voice.

Lin Shen frowned slightly, but remained silent.

Jin Xu'an didn't care, he just continued to talk: "Are you feeling better now? You got so many injuries that day, I think it must be difficult to recover."

As he spoke, Jin Xu'an took out a bottle of medicine from his lapel.

"Since that day, I have been carrying this bottle of medicine with me," Jin Xu'an's voice became softer, "I knew you would come back to find me, so I kept waiting and never returned to the capital. I wanted to see you again."

Lin Shen was confused by Jin Xu'an's words. His brows furrowed slightly, and he weighed the current situation in his mind.

Since he had been discovered, he no longer disguised himself and tore off the human skin mask on his face, revealing his true face.

Jin Xu'an looked at Lin Shen's familiar face, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly, and his fingers stiffened for a moment.

Lin Shen's expression was cold. He looked directly at Jin Xu'an and asked, "How did you figure that out?"

Jin Xu'an came back to his senses, took a sip of tea and suppressed the itch in his throat.

Hearing Lin Shen's question, the smile on his face became more genuine. "Your scent and temperament are always unique. I recognized it at first sight, but I was not sure." Jin Xu'an explained.

Lin Shen didn't say anything, wondering what was so special about himself, but he really couldn't smell anything unusual.

Finally, he decided not to dwell on this issue anymore, and turned his gaze back to Jin Xu'an, with a slight smile on his face. "Aren't you afraid that I'll come and kill you again?" Lin Shen asked.

Jin Xu'an blinked, seemingly confused, "Why do you want to kill me?"

There was genuine confusion in his tone.

Lin Shen clenched his hands, his expression turned gloomy, and his eyes were filled with deep hatred.

His eyes were too direct, staring straight into Jin Xu'an's eyes, causing Jin Xu'an's face to freeze slightly. His hands unconsciously clenched the teacup, and the slightly hot tea spilled a little on his hands, but he didn't feel anything.

Lin Shen came closer, his voice cold and vicious: "For revenge."

Jin Xu'an paused. He had killed countless people in his life and had enemies everywhere. He didn't know which grudge Lin Shen was referring to.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt a slight pain in his heart, as if millions of ants were gnawing at him.

Jin Xu'an frowned, trying to find the answer from Lin Shen's eyes, but the deep hatred seemed to come from an abyss that he had never touched.

The atmosphere between the two became tense and heavy. The aroma of tea floated in the air, but it could not cover up the heavy atmosphere.
