Soul Patch

Chapter 136 was already predetermined?

Seeing the two enter the villa, Jia Song followed them.

The villa's gate curved in front of him, and just as it was about to close, Jia Lin spoke:

"Sigh... Jia Nan asked me to too..."

Before he could finish speaking, the door slammed shut.

The unfinished words were left unsaid as the door closed behind them.

Undeterred, Jia Lin rushed up and pounded on the door.

The nanny, An Ran, heard the knocking on the door. She looked at Jia Nan and Mr. Wen, who had entered the house with Jia Nan, and then at the direction of the door. She stood there, somewhat at a loss.

"Never mind, it's Jia Lin."

After saying these words, Jia Nan went upstairs with a cold expression.

Wenjie's face was even more frighteningly cold. He followed Jia Nan without saying a word, and soon their footsteps gradually faded into the distance, disappearing completely with the bang of the door closing.

An Ran retreated to her room. She never asked any questions about Jia Nan's brother.

Jia Nan went straight into her bedroom, and as soon as she stepped inside, she turned around to close the door.

The door jammed Wenjie's heel, making him even more furious, as he was already burdened with worries.

The doubts in his heart finally escaped his lips, bursting from his throat with a violent and aggressive tone: "What happened to my father? Are you sure it's my father?"

Wenjie also felt that the figure looked exactly like his father, but how could that be?

My father has been gone for a long time!

"Killed by me!"

At those words, Wenjie's mind went blank. He rushed over uncontrollably, pinned Jia Nan to the ground, and rained punches on him.

"Ha ha……"

Jia Nan looked at the enraged Wen Jie, a cold smile appearing on his lips, which slowly widened... He burst into laughter.

He laughed so hard he could barely breathe.

It’s so cool!

Seeing Wenjie like this, it would be even more satisfying to kill Wen Tianyi by hand!

"How does it feel to lose a loved one...?"

Jia Nan was pinned to the ground, and Wen Jie jumped up and knelt on Jia Nan's back.

Boom!

A muffled sound!

"Ah... Pfft..." Jia Nan spat out a mouthful of blood, and there was no chance to say anything more provocative.

Wenjie turned Jia Nan around and pinched his mouth shut.

Jia Nan's once stern, sharply defined face was now so distorted by pain.

Looking at Jia Nan in front of him, Wen Jie calmed down.

He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "You're playing me, aren't you? You're trying to provoke me, aren't you! How could you possibly kill my father? My father died when I was five years old."

Jia Nan touched his nose, looked at the bloodstains on his sleeve, and spat a mouthful of bloody saliva onto the ground.

He remained indifferent, showing no interest in answering Wenjie.

Ask me? Who the hell am I supposed to ask? How the hell would I know what's going on?

Wenjie stepped forward and grabbed Jia Nan, who was sitting on the ground, and said, "Tell me, is he really my father?! You'd better tell me! Do you believe I'll kill you?!"

Jia Nan let out another cold laugh, watching Wenjie being tortured was just too cool.

He pulled a keychain from his pocket, slipped the key ring onto his finger, and waved it in front of Wenjie: "Wenjie, if you hit me again, I'll press this button and we'll both die!"

Wenjie looked at the keychain dangling in front of him, with a shiny protrusion on the metal clasp.

Jia Nan held the keychain in her hand, ready to press the detonation device at any moment.

"Go die if you want to!" Wenjie slapped Jia Nan's arm, which was holding the keychain.

With a cracking sound, Jia Nan's arm seemed to suddenly lose its function, freezing motionless in mid-air. It remained there for less than three seconds before the area where it was struck began to lose control, first the forearm, then the wrist, the palm, the fingers…

Jia Nan tried desperately to grip the keychain in his hand, but he couldn't muster any strength. His hand felt limp and powerless, as if it didn't belong to him.

"Snap!" The keychain fell to the ground.

Wenjie bent down and swept his leg, kicking the keychain away.

Jia Nan slowly sat down on the floor, stroking her injured arm with her other hand. Without even looking at Wenjie, she said:

"Wenjie, last time you said you knew what it was like to have a childhood without a father..."

Jia Nan's voice was hoarse, as if it conveyed endless exhaustion. He continued, "Actually, you don't understand... Your father has never left you. He has always been by your side. He may not be here, but his love is always there."

As he spoke, he lowered his eyes, and tears rolled down his cheeks one by one.

Jia Nan wiped her hand with her fingers, staring blankly at the warm, damp liquid on her hand.

He shed tears!

He actually shed tears!

He couldn't understand why he was crying!

"Your father's name is Wen Tianyi. He personally said that a father should pay for his son's debts, and asked me to let you go..."

"No...stop talking! Jia Nan, how could you...take it out on me! How could you kill an innocent person! You actually killed my father!"

My father... my father...

Where is my father's body?

Jia Nan… I'm asking you the hell, where is my father's body?

Wenjie burst into tears. He lunged at Jia Nan, shoving him frantically and yelling at him.

Tears streamed down my face, and my heart was filled with sorrow.

As if all the strength had been drained from Wenjie, he collapsed to his knees, covered his face, and wept bitterly.

His father died trying to save him.

The father didn't even understand why Jia Nan wanted to kill him, yet he resolutely chose to shield him from everything.

He deserves to die; he is the culprit who killed his father!

……

From the moment the sun rose high overhead until it set in the west, neither Wenjie nor Jia Nan spoke.

Each of them felt sorrow and lamented.

Wenjie spoke first, turning to look at Jia Nan with renewed hope in his eyes. His tone was no longer somber: "Jia Nan, my father Wen Tianyi's body wasn't in my apartment... Tell me what happened after that?"

Jia Nan lay on the floor, staring up at the carved patterns on the ceiling for an entire afternoon, until she was completely numb.

His mind was still a bit slow, and upon hearing Wenjie's question, he blurted out without thinking, "Disappeared."

Wen Jie jumped up, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, "Disappeared?"

Jia Nan glanced at Wen Jie indifferently: "Well, I picked up the rope from the ground, and as soon as I tied the knot, his body disappeared, as if it had never existed."

It's gone, it's gone, how did it disappear?

Does my father also have a system?

But I don't think I saw my father's name in the system's carrier directory last time.

Wenjie's mind raced as he muttered to himself and paced around the room.

Father disappeared... which means Father logged out of the system.

Then his father would return to the real world where he was, which was when he was five years old.

The police found the father's body and asked the family to identify it. He saw the butterfly rope buckle on his father's wrist.

That is to say

all of these,

Was it all preordained?
