Chapter 340: Don't Believe Your Own Lie
Shi Tu knows this look, this woman is definitely angry and will not calm down unless she takes her anger out on something.
In this current situation, the best Shi Tu can do is keep up with her and fulfill all her desires if he wants to survive.
Unfortunately, Shi Tu cannot always choose the most effective decision because it is not always the right decision.
Shi Tu forced a bright smile on his face and said, " Dear Alice, how are you? I haven't seen you in eighty years, how have you been until now? "
Shi Tu spoke to Alice quite normally and seemed to have put a barrier between them.
Despite the intimacy of his words, Shi Tu's tone sounded like he was treating Alice as an outsider.
" Shi Tu!! " Sun Jie yelled beside Alice angrily, " Is that the first thing you say to Sister Alice? Are you a human? "
" What are you talking about? Isn't it polite to ask how ' old friends ' are when we meet after a long separation? "
" Old friends? You "
" Enough "
Alice waved her hand to keep Sun Jie silent.
Alice's smile did not disappear from her face and looked at Shi Tu.
" Is that all you have to say? You won't even try to act anymore? "
The smile disappeared from Shi Tu's face, and he said seriously, '' No, I have nothing to tell you. "
Shi Tu shook his head and said, "I told you all that had to be said in the letter I left for you. "
" I see, it looks like you need to be disciplined. "
Alice smiled and said, " Maybe I should tell my brother that you are bullying me. I heard that my brother is here in the Yin-Yang World. "
Shi Tu's expression became serious.
If Alice complains to her brother, that bastard will never forgive Shi Tu and may end up cutting their relationship.
" You don't seem to get it, huh" Shi Tu shook his head in disappointment.
" Do whatever you want. But I advise you to try to know the consequences of your actions. "
Alice sneered and said, "what consequences? At most you will cut ties with my brother, right? "
" Are you pretending to be stupid? "
Shi Tu looked at Alice seriously and said, " You don't seem to be pretending. It looks like you were really spoiled in the Golden Crow Clan. "
Shi Tu's face showed cruelty and said, " Even without that, knowing me, what do you think I would do? "
Alice's face sank dramatically, " He is your brother! your brother who has fought with you for countless years. You will kill him just for this? No, are you going to kill us only for this? "
" Because he knows a lot and he is not the dear brother that I killed. I'm used to it " Shi Tu answered simply.
That's right, Alice's brother knows a lot of Shi Tu's secrets. If the two of them cut off their relationship, Shi Tu would not hesitate to kill both of them to silence them forever.
The knowledge they possessed could pose a danger to Shi Tu, not to mention their own strength, so Shi Tu can't allow such a threat.
" A rational man always uses his mind before his feelings, huh."
Alice calmed and said, "It seems that what your servant told me is true. "
" My servant? I don't have such a thing. "
" Really? It doesn't matter. The important thing is that he told me something interesting, too . "
Alice smiled with a hint of anger and said, " I heard you sent that man to the Vortex of Samsara. "
Unexpectedly, Alice showed some anger towards Shi Tu for what he had done to her father.
Shi Tu was not surprised and said, " Although it is not a complete success due to the presence of some intruders, it seems that the effect of your blood on you has largely faded. "
Shi Tu looked intently at Alice and seemed to want to examine the side effects of this unexpected event.
" Shouldn't you thank me? If I don't remember wrongly, haven't you always wished that ghost to die a terrible death? "
Anger flared up in Alice's eyes, and she said, " Sister Sun Jie is not a burden. It seems to me that you are not even trying to hide your thoughts right now, huh. "
" Your sister? "
She frowned and said, " Although I brought her to be your friend, but... aren't you too close to her? "
" What did I teach you? "
" My sister is not just a tool!! "
Alice cried angrily, her patience on the verge of running out.
Sun Jie looked at Alice with affection, not knowing what to say.
Previously, Alice broke her arm because of Shi Tu and she was even excited to meet Shi Tu before but now she's yelling at him like that for her.
Shi Tu shook his head in disappointment, " Too childish, are you really his sister? Are you really his daughter? It's okay to make life-or-death friendships but .. it's better to differentiate between tools and people. It's good to make tools think they are real people but you shouldn't believe your own lie."
Alice clenched her fist tightly, " Why? Why did you put so much effort into helping me then? "
There were tears in Alice's eyes, she seemed to be struggling to stop herself from crying.
" Don't seem to have any use for me or any benefit in helping me. You could have just left me and you wouldn't risk offending him. So why? Why?! "
Alice couldn't hold back her tears any longer.
" I was stupid because I believed your words in the letter. I longed to see you but looking at you now, it must be a lie to let me hold on to life. "
Sun Jie approached the crying Alice and helped her wipe her tears.
" From the beginning, I had no choice. All your words, all your actions are just lies to lure me into doing what you want me to do. "
" I've felt this all the time. But... but... I wanted to hold on to one last sliver of hope. "
Alice's expression gradually began to change to decisive.
" You don't even hesitate to get rid of your brother if opposes you ..."
