The puppets' stage play

Chapter 156 Justice, Conflict and Temptation

Lin Dao actually always felt that Gong Shoucheng was very strange. He kept talking about innocent thoughts all day long. What was even more surprising was that he took action on it, which really puzzled him.

He originally started from the lower class and was taught by teachers since he was a child, so some of his ideas are somewhat different from ordinary people. He believes that there are only good and bad people in this world.

So even if the friend he grew up with tried to deceive him and betray him, he didn't feel strange when he took his hand out of the other person's chest. Although he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he understood that the other person was just a born evil.

This made him even more sure that only by eradicating the evil people in the world can good people live in peace, and this is what he has always done. Eliminating the notorious people is the best gift to the world!

Until he met Gong Shoucheng...

He couldn't understand how such an innocent person could survive in this world. The world was so cruel to good people, and he could only follow one path to move forward. Why did he want them all?

There seemed to be no evil people in his sight, just ordinary people who had gone the wrong way. Lindao was very unhappy. He felt that it was such pedantic people who allowed bad people to take over. He looked down on him from the bottom of his heart.

But as time goes by, Lin Dao's thoughts have also changed. Gong Shoucheng is not a fool. He is just sticking to his ideals. This cannot be questioned by others. This is a dreamer who knows the hardships ahead and keeps moving forward. .

He felt a little ashamed. Although he didn't change his attitude on the surface, he still picked on Gong Shoucheng from time to time, but he recognized him in his heart.

Of course, Gong Shoucheng often laughed at his cynicism. He felt that he should learn from the strengths of others and could not just rely on his own strength to force others to recognize him.

At that moment, he felt that his heart had been sublimated, although he actually thought it was very handsome!

Yan Wudao's narration sounded in his ears again. Lin Dao came to his senses and sighed in his heart. It's a pity that such a person is dead.

"A year has actually passed since the day we met again. After a period of time, everyone gradually became familiar with it..." Yan Wudao had memories in his eyes and a smile on his lips.

Qi Xiu glanced at Lin Dao, who had a heavy face, turned his head quietly and continued to listen.

"In this year, my father gradually gained power, and my status naturally rose, while the Bai family fell into the clouds. Therefore, good people often ridiculed Yiyi, calling her shameless and clinging to the son of an enemy."

"...Gong Shoucheng beat them. This was the first time he was punished by the elders in the family. After he came back, he didn't care at all. He said that Bai Yiyi was one of theirs, so naturally he couldn't be bullied by others."

"It was during this year that the situation of the Bai family became increasingly difficult. People kept trying to step on the former lord of the city. It was under such a situation that Le Ling came to Haizhou City. The Bai family naturally moved in eagerly in an attempt to seek asylum."

Yan Wudao shook his head, his eyes a little cold.

"They heard rumors about Le Ling being a womanizer. Bai Furen, the head of the Bai family, Yiyi's biological uncle actually sent her to her door in person, saying that he would let her do whatever he wanted and only wanted to protect the Bai family once."

"At that time, all the heads of the Bai family were exiled. The head of the family at that time, Bai Jingtao, entrusted his daughter to his younger brother, hoping to save her life. The adults did not bother to do anything to a little girl."

"So nominally Yiyi is the biological daughter of the current head of the family, Bai Furen, and naturally has the right to handle it. Le Ling sent a message asking me for my opinion. What can I do, so I had to persuade her to comply with the Bai family's request."

Yan Wudao sighed, his eyes helpless.

"Perhaps you don't know that Kong Leling came here to marry Wu Dao. The Kong family valued Yan Sheng, who had the power in the land, so they sent their own daughter and heir Kong Leling here to cultivate a relationship for a period of time before completing the wedding. "

Lin Dao interrupted, causing Qi Xiu's eyes to move, and some doubts in his heart were immediately explained.

"Le Ling is actually not a person without opinions. She actually just asked me to test my father's true attitude. Although this approach made me unhappy, I also felt that this woman was somewhat extraordinary."

Yan Wudao sighed with a sigh of relief.

"My father does not want to wipe out the Bai family. His relationship with the Bai family is actually not as tense as it seems to outsiders. Mr. Bai and my father have been friends for many years."

"It wouldn't have come to that point, but the situation at that time was extremely complicated. The "help" in the past was forced in turn. The hyenas who had tasted the "fresh meat" were unwilling to give up. Other major wealthy families who were originally watching the show were also adding fuel to the fire."

"The final result was that the Bai family withdrew from the stage, my father took power, and the academy began to become powerful. Its reputation was even heard among ordinary people. Everyone knew that the academy was the real one in power."

"As far as I know, Kang Tainian temporarily took over as the dean three years ago. Hey, there may not be a connection." Lin Dao sneered and told the information he had.

"...No one knows the truth, don't make wild guesses." Yan Wudao looked slightly sideways and gave a slight warning, but his tone was not serious. Obviously he also felt that this was probably a real situation.

"Let's not talk about these troublesome things. Speaking of Kong Leling, I remembered one thing. She actually had long black hair when she first came to this city. She had a cold face all day long. She mocked this and that every day. It was annoying!"

Lin Dao's eyes were a little impatient, and he waved his hands to stop the topic, and then his expression was a bit mean, and he showed a smile.

Yan Wudao thought for a moment and understood what the other party wanted to say. He couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, turned his head and said to Qi Xiu.

"That was what happened after Kong Leling took Yiyi in and preserved the remaining Bai family after the collapse of the Bai family. At that time, the two adults were pulled together all day long in order to cultivate their relationship, even though we were unwilling."

"Of course I was reluctant and didn't want to pay attention to her, but Le Ling was not without temper. She accused my friends and used her status to pressure them. Li Zhi, Lin Sheng, and Lin Dao suffered greatly from this... "

"Tch, I won't spoil her!" Lindao turned his head to the side, but his movements were a little awkward.

"You are straightforward, but you make us suffer." Yan Wudao didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The other party knocked Kong Leling to the ground and immediately covered him with dust. You can imagine how embarrassing the atmosphere was at that time.

Kong Leling climbed up from the ground calmly, patted the dirt on her body and face, glanced at Lin Dao lightly, turned around and left.

Everyone was stunned at that time. The other party obviously had a grudge against Lin Dao. With the power of the Kong family, how long could Lin Dao resist even if he could fight?

Lindao still looked lawless, with a sneer on his face.

Among the people present, Bai Lian was indifferent, Zhu Qing looked numb, Yi Yi was expressionless, and everyone else had solemn expressions on their faces.

Yan Wudao sighed, took Lin Dao's hand and ran to Kong Leling, calling him to stop.

Kong Leling stopped where she was and turned around with an indifferent expression.

He forced Lin Dao's head down and apologized to Kong Leling. The other party just nodded slightly, his eyes still cold. Gong Shoucheng smiled and stepped forward.

"Both of you take a step back on this matter. Lin Dao, please apologize properly and let Le Ling give her a slap to vent her anger. Le Ling, please just stop it and don't cause more trouble. How about that?"

Gong Shoucheng's smile was gentle, but his tone was firm and unquestionable.

"Brother Gong, this..." Lin Dao was dumbfounded, his expression a little ugly.

"Gong Shoucheng, you are nothing but worthy of my face. I usually only give you two cents of face, but today..." Kong Leling coldly interrupted Gong Shoucheng's words, glanced at Lin Dao, and showed a cruel smile.

Gong Shoucheng's smile softened slightly and his eyes focused.

"I see, I understand. In fact, it's because you look down on someone in my palace at all. Well, today I will let you know what the gap is." He smiled, his expression making everyone feel a little strange.

"Kong Leling, let's compete. Whether it's poetry or martial arts, it's up to you. I won't be able to handle it for you. Otherwise, how about you agree to my request?"

Facing Gong Shoucheng's provocation, Kong Leling showed a hint of interest in her eyes. She had heard of Gong Shoucheng's name for a long time, and today she was going to try it out.

"Okay." She also smiled, her eyes without warmth.

Under the expectant gaze of everyone, the two launched a comprehensive competition. As far as the results were concerned...

The next day, Kong Leling arrived as scheduled.

"Pfft, what kind of hairstyle do you have? It's so stupid, huh huh." Lin Dao didn't regret it, holding his stomach and laughing at the visitor.

Kong Leling glanced coldly at the hilarious Lin Dao, snorted, and walked towards Bai Yiyi, her pink twin ponytails flying behind her head shining brightly in the sun.

"I didn't expect you to put forward such conditions..." Yan Wudao looked at Gong Shoucheng with a strange look, and the people next to him also looked at him strangely.

"It's nothing, it's just a moment of fun. Look, the atmosphere among everyone is much more harmonious now." Gong Shoucheng's face showed no emotion, and he looked a little pleased when he saw this scene.

Yan Wudao thought of the scene that day again.

"My condition is to put down the resistance in your heart and integrate into us. To do this, you need to forgive Lin Dao. By the way... If you can, it's best to dye your hair pink and then turn it into twin tails. Wu Dao likes that best. "

Gong Shoucheng raised his thumbs up and said seriously to Kong Leling, who was showing unwillingness.

Kong Leling was silent for a moment, walked up to Lin Dao, backed away from him, and left with a slight hum.

"Remember, I just lost to you. As long as you are alive, I will abide by this agreement." With these last words left in the air, Gong Shoucheng smiled and said nothing.

"..." The two fell into silence for a moment.

Qi Xiu thought of Gong Shoucheng's mature and steady style, but never thought that he could have such childish behavior. He laughed for a moment and fell into silence. In any case, Li Duo killed the other party out of consideration for himself. .

In other words, it's no different from killing someone with his own hands, it's just the murderer's pretense.

"I'm a little tired of it," Qi Xiu said to himself.

Beep beep, as if responding to Qi Xiu's thoughts, a mission prompt came from the center. Qi Xiu suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart and stood up.

"I have something else to do. Let's go ahead." He briefly explained to the two of them and started to leave without waiting for a response.

A little further away from the two of them, his body twisted and disappeared.

The two of them were silent for a while, Lin Dao's eyes were a little dark.

"Is the test fruitless...?"
