Chapter 911: The Will
Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

At this point, Xia Ling was fairly clear about what had happened.

Her fans were probably unhappy with Xia Yu and found all means and ways to torture her, eventually to her death.

She gasped internally, realizing how Xia Yu had paid her price after setting others up her whole life. “Is no one in prison bothered about this?” Xia Ling asked.

Gu Lin sneered. “Who’d bother? Your fans are among the prison wardens, too. We could count ourselves lucky that they didn’t find trouble with us, but they’d probably be happy to know that we’re being tortured! Let me tell you, your fans are beasts! A whole pack of them! When I’m released from prison after my serving time, I’ll get Dad to take revenge on them!”

She was getting agitated again.

Xia Ling looked at her haggard face and suddenly pitied her—such a rich and pampered missy being tortured so horribly with no one to come to her rescue, it was a miracle she hadn’t gone insane. Xia Ling toned down as she continued asking, “Based on what you’ve said, this isn’t Li Li An’s first time finding trouble with others. But why did she go overboard this time, to actually torture Xia Yu to death? They have the guts to kill someone in prison?”

Gu Lin shook her head and quietly said, “They’ve never killed anyone. At least… not in their records.”

That was strange. Xia Ling simply could not figure out why they’d take such a risk to kill someone who’d be facing the death sentence the following day? Was there…

Some other reason?

She looked at Gu Lin. “Nothing strange happened in the past few days?”

Gu Lin shook her head and remained quiet.

Seeing that she was not getting anything more out of her, Xia Ling sighed. Part of her suspected that this had something to do with Pei Ziheng, but if it really was the case, this man was just too deep and scary.

“Is there anything else you want to ask?” Gu Lin said.

“That’s all for now.” Xia Ling said, “Now, as my form of repayment, you can request something. As long as it’s within my means and not against my principles, I’ll do it for you.”

Gu Lin fiddled with the corner of her top. After a while, she finally swallowed her pride and whispered, “Can you ask Li Li An and the rest not to find trouble with me anymore?” Ever since she entered prison, life had been a living hell. They’d even knocked out some of her teeth, this was unbearable.

But this request was an easy one.

Xia Ling opened her red handbag and took out a pretty little notepad. It held lyrics, musical notes, and little doodles from when she got inspirations while on the go. She tore a piece from it and used an eyebrow pencil to write the words “For Li Li An” before signing under it. It was beautifully written, and that little note seemed like an art piece. She handed it to Gu Lin, saying, “Pass this to Li Li An, tell her it’s from me. Ask her not to make things difficult for you anymore.”

Gu Lin received the note with trembling hands.

She’d suffered beatings and watched Xia Yu die before her eyes. After Xia Yu’s passing, the gang had turned to torturing her for entertainment. What good could this slip of paper do to such a ruthless gang? Gu Lin was uncertain this would not work, and yet, she was full of hope.

Xia Ling did not share her worries. She simply grabbed her handbag and walked out of the interrogation room.

A prison guard was waiting for her outside.
