Big Novel

"You must remember my words and don’t admit it. I'll hang up now." Venus said.
It was hot, but Venus felt chilled to the bone. She couldn't help but shrink her shoulders.
"Miss Chu, why is your face so pale?" John had just returned from an errand outside. He saw her white face and asked with
concern.
Venus shook her head numbly, then turned sharply and ran upstairs to Kerrys bedroom. She had to ask Kerry why he killed
someone when he'd already known it was a trap of Xuan.
"Do all the promises he made mean nothing? Doesn't he fear that the child will be rewarded for all his evil?" Venus thought.
She went to Kerry's bedroom and kicked in the door. Then Venus grabbed a pillow from the couch and smashed it against his
head.
Kerry woke up to the pillow hitting him and rubbed his eyes as he got up from the bed. He was instantly fully awake when he saw
Venus's angry red eyes.
"What's wrong?” Kerry asked and then got out of bed.
Venus growled, "What did you do last night?"
"I went to Jindun Company. That’s what you know." Kerry said calmly.
"What did you do in Jindun Company?"
Instead of answering her question, Kerry asked, "What's wrong? Why are you so angry?"
"Don't change the subject. What did you do after you went to Jindun Company?" Venus asked angrily.
Kerry saw that she was really angry and didn't beat around the bush, he just said, "I interrogated the man. It was indeed Yan or
his colleges who arranged it, but he didn't know the man with the silver mask."
"And then?" Venus asked.
"And then I told him to get out of Sky City and never set foot here for the rest of his life."
Venus got even more annoyed at that and retorted with a smirk, "You mean you let him go?"

"Yeah, why would I keep him?”
"Are you still lying to me? Why don't you tell the truth?" Venus's eyes got wet and her voice got choked up.
Kerry got anxious at the sight of her crying. He got up and walked up to her to hold her hand, but Venus dodged him.
"Why would I lie to you? I'm telling the truth," Kerry said.
Venus's tears streamed down her face, "You say you let the man go, but why did Xuan say you killed him and threw the body into
the sea?"
Kerry heard her words, and then laughed.
"And you still laugh? Are you so cruel? Are other people's lives so worthless to you?" said Venus.
Kerry held up his palms and swore, "You've wronged me. I swear I didn't kill him."
Venus stared at him. She was unsure if she should believe him. He really had too little credibility and there was no need for Xuan
to lie to her.
"I'm serious. I didn't kill him." Kerry spoke firmly.
"But why did Xuan say you killed him?"
Kerry explained, "It's like this ......"
Late last night, after Kerry had asked Jianxing Feng all the questions he wanted to ask. He had been thinking about what to do
with Jianxing. If he let him go, he was afraid that Jianxing would tip off Xuan Chu. He was also afraid that Xuan would take the
initiative to find Jianxing as well. If Jianxing could betray Xuan now, he could betray him then as well, and then Venus's identity
would be known to Xuan.
If he didn't let him go, where would he get him to? Killing him would be the best solution, but Venus wouldn't let him kill anyone.
"Jianxing Feng, what do you think I should do with you?" Kerry picked up the dagger on the table and played with it in his hand.
Jianxing shivered and quickly begged for mercy, "Mr. Ye, please let me go. I will never dare do that again. Please don’t kill me.
My parents are old and they need me to take care of them."

"You're thinking of your parents now?" Kerry smirked, "What if I let you go and you go to Xuan?"
"I won't. I didn't complete my tasks, he won't let me go. As long as you let me live, I will never go back to Sky City again, please."
Jianxing begged.
Kerry leaned against the table in silence for a long time and said, "I'm in a good mood today, so I won't kill you. In order to
address my worries and make Xuan cut off the idea of finding you, I will find a place on the beach to throw you down. Of course
there will be a small boat under the cliff, whether you live or die will depend on your luck."
Jianxing didn't expect that Kerry would not kill him. He quickly nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Ye."
Kerry went out and talked to the boss about the decision. The boss said, "I'm not going to keep a guy like him anymore. What to
do with him is up to you."
So Jianxing played dead and was put into the trunk. On the way to the sea, Kerry instructed his men to hide a small boat under
the cliffs of the ocean, with three thousand and some food in it.
While arranging all this, Kerry felt he was too kind himself. He didn't think it was like his style of doing things.
When Xuan's men looked into the sea, Jianxing was picking up the boat to catch his breath. It was at night when Jianxing was
thrown off the cliff, so no one saw that he was still alive.
After telling the story, Venus still looked at Kerry with a puzzled look,” You let him go and gave him money and food? Will you be
so kind?"
"I didn't think I'd do that either. Maybe it's your kindness that has given me a sense of compassion." Kerry teased with a smile.
He was actually afraid that the bastard wouldn't survive and come back to Sky City. The money and food would be enough for
him to live in a strange place for at least two months. After two months, even if he ran back to the city, Kerry had solved all his
problems.
Venus snorted, "I know too well what you are. A bad wolf suddenly turns into a kind rabbit. It doesn't even happen in children's
story books."
She said so, but in her heart she believed him.
"You can ask Henry. He was there with me last night." Kerry felt a little pathetic. He used to be so cruel to people that she
distrusted him now.

Venus stared at him and turned to walk out.
"Where are you going?" Kerry turned his head and asked.
"I'm going to ask Henry now."
Kerry sighed and then lay down on the bed.
Henry was a little nervous when he learned of Venus's intentions because he didn't know how Kerry explained this to her. If he
said something that was different from Kerry, he was afraid Kerry would punish him.
"Miss Chu, this matter is what Mr. Ye has told you." Henry tried to muddle through.
Venus glared at him and said angrily, "I'm asking you now. If you don't tell me the truth, I'll fire you right now."
Henry hesitated, not daring to say anything even in the face of her threat.
"Henry, you tell her what happened last night truthfully." Kerry got dressed and came down from upstairs leisurely.
Henry was so relieved. He was about to speak but was interrupted by Venus. She said to Kerry, "Please go out for a walk. Don’t
stay here."
"I haven't eaten and it's so hot out there right now." Kerry said reluctantly.
Venus looked out the window. It was hot indeed.
"Then you go to the dining room." said Venus.
Kerry let out a long sigh, "How little credibility you have with me. Why don't you believe me?”
"Your credibility used to be below zero in my mind, now it's slightly above zero." Venus said truthfully.
Kerry was heartbroken and then he jogged towards the dining room.
"Now we're the only two in the living room. If Kerry is telling the truth and you are telling the truth, you have absolutely nothing to
worry about."
Henry took a deep breath and said, "Last night ......"

Henry narrated it very carefully. He watched Venus's expression as he spoke, and thankfully she hadn't changed much from the
start.
When he finished, Henry set his phone to the dial-up interface for Venus, "I'll call my subordinate at one o'clock to arrange for a
small boat, here's the call log. If you still don't believe me, you can call him up again and ask."
Venus scanned and indeed a call was dialed at one o'clock.
The details of what Henry had said were almost identical to what Kerry had said, except for the part about the interrogation in the
room, since Henry hadn't been in the room at the time.
"So, Kerry did release the man. And what Xuan saw was deliberately staged for him by Kerry?" Venus thought.
At this point she suddenly felt a little embarrassed to face Kerry.
She returned the phone to Henry. And Kerry asked, "Miss Chu, is there anything else you want to ask?"
"No, you can leave now."
"Okay." Henry responded and stalked out of the living room, taking a long breath. He prayed in his mind that she wouldn't come
to him next time to ask about Kerry so as not to offend Kerry.
Venus sat in the living room for a while. She was wondering if she should go apologize to Kerry for the wrong she had just done
to him.
If she went to apologize to him, she felt too embarrassed. If she didn't go, she felt a little guilty. After all, she was the one who
had done wrong.
She hesitated whether or not to apologize to Kerry when Kerry sauntered over to her. He had a glass of water in his hand and a
smile on his lips.
"I'm not lying to you, right?" Kerry asked with a smile.
Venus looked at him with a raised eyebrow, but she never said anything to apologize to him.
Kerry saw right through her. He sat down next to her, put one hand on the couch behind her, and said with a light smile, "You
don't have to blame yourself. I don't blame you for wronging me. I blame it on my previous poor reputation."

His words made Venus feel even more conflicted. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'll try to trust you in the future, but
only if you can't lie to me."
