You Are Only an Ordinary Person, Not God
He suddenly changed the subject. "What's the situation with Mai Yatang?"
"She's a very pitiful girl. Please do a good deed and help her."
According to Qin Chuan, her real uncle had sold Mai Yatang away.
That man was so heartless. He had sold her once and it was possible that he would try to sell her again.
Ye Tianxin was afraid that if Mai Ya returned home, her uncle would be up to no good again. She wanted to find someone to help the girl.
If Qie Wenyang was in the capital, Ye Tianxin would be able to ask him to help. She would not need to ask Qie Yiyan for help now.
"You owe me a big favor this time. Next time when I ask you for help, you cannot turn me down."
"So are you here to get me to return your favor?"
Ye Tianxin teased Qi Yiyan playfully.
Qie Yiyan shook his head. "No, but I need your help regarding something."
"Yiyan, you are trying to trick me."
Ye Tianxin knew Qie Yiyan well enough. He would not look her up just to have a chat.
After a long pause, Qie Yiyan spoke coldly. "Qin Chuan still refuses to say anything."
"What? Is he mad? He's already in this state. Is he still hoping that someone will save him?"
Ye Tianxin did not understand what Qin Chuan was thinking.
They had been very clear to him. They would be lenient to him if he confessed to them. If he refused, he would be severely punished.
Up to now, he still refused to cooperate. What exactly was he thinking?
"He wants to see you. He has told us that he would not say anything to anyone, except you."
"All right then, let me visit him. Let's see what he has to say."
Ye Tianxin and Qie Yiyan then made their way to where Qin Chuan was being locked up. As Qin Chuan had been locked in his cell for days, he seemed to have grown fairer than when he was in the desert.
Ye Tianxin took a seat opposite Qin Chuan. "I heard that you asked to see me?"
Qin Chuan looked at Ye Tianxin. She looked a little tired, probably from overwork.
"Do you have a cigarette?"
Ye Tianxin nodded. She took out a cigarette and gave it to Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan took the cigarette from Ye Tianxin who lighted it for him with a matchstick. Qin Chuan took a puff and the smoke permeated the air.
He coughed a little and raised his eyebrow, his lips curling into a secretive smile.
"Ye Tianxin, do you know what was I doing in the desert?"
The smile worked its way across Qin Chuan's and into his eyes.
He grew up in a world of darkness. He had seen so much evil and filth in his world.
"I am someone who was pushed out to the front, to carry out tasks in the open. There is a mastermind behind me, someone very important and influential."
Qin Chuan spoke as he took puff after puff of the cigarette.
"The mastermind was behind everything that I have done. Even the one I took orders from is his puppet."
"Ye Tianxin, I want to remind you that you are just an ordinary person. You are not god. Do not offend this person. Otherwise, not only will you die. Even your loved ones will be implicated."
Qin Chuan turned to look at his shoulder.
There are two long steel nails on his shoulder blades.
Whenever there was a change in weather, his shoulders would hurt so much that he would not be able to lift his arms.
"Look at what happened to me. When I failed in my mission at the desert, he stuck these two nails on me..."
They were two long nails.
The thought of the scene made Ye Tianxin feel like throwing up. She felt thoroughly disgusted by the act of violence.
"Then why are you not cooperating with us? Are you being threatened? Or..."
