Chapter 66: Chapter 66 Cheng Shi is a Martial Artist

On the Nanshan Highway, eight cars sped along.

One of them, a black SUV with Qingcheng plates ranked third, carrying Tang Xiaowan and Wang Meijuan, with Cheng Shi driving.

Li Zishen was still sitting in the luxury car he had arrived in.

Since departing, he hadn’t said a word and had been continually typing on his laptop.

Chen Xin speculated that Li Zishen was probably annoyed because Tang Xiaowan wasn’t in this car, so he cautiously asked, "Brother Shen, when we get back to Li Garden, where will Cheng Shi stay, in the villa on the first floor, or go to the Bodyguard Building behind?"

"Next to you."

Chen Xin, "Oh, good, I’ll have company."

Li Zishen closed his laptop and looked towards the black SUV ahead, a slight smile flashed in his bright phoenix eyes, "However, tonight, you might be disappointed, I guess he won’t be going anywhere."

Chen Xin, "?"

What did he mean by not going anywhere, surely he wouldn’t stay in the car?

Could it be that...

"Focus on driving, maintain the distance."

Hearing the reminder, Chen Xin immediately returned to his posture and straightened his back, "Yes, Brother Shen."

Meanwhile, the SUV was lively.

With dynamic music on and an assortment of snacks being enjoyed, Tang Xiaowan and Wang Meijuan were deep in conversation, chatting from Nanshan to Qingcheng City Center, then from Qingcheng University to fashion and clothing, even the usually reticent Cheng Shi joined in with a few irrelevant comments.

"We still have to wait five more days to return."

Cheng Shi, "Lady Tang, anytime you want."

"But I have to attend school!"

Wang Meijuan, "Lady Tang, you weren’t like this before, often feigning illness to skip classes. If it weren’t for your good grades, the school would probably..."

"Was I that bad before?"

Wang Meijuan, "Not at all, what I mean is, you used to dislike school. Do you like it now?"

"Still don’t like it, hahaha."

Laughter erupted once again inside the SUV.

...

In the Eastern Suburb of Jin City.

At 10:30 p.m., the gates to Li Garden opened.

Eight cars orderly entered, diverging around the flower beds, some heading towards the garage and others to the security building behind, only two cars stopped at the main villa entrance.

Fang Yun didn’t stay in Li Garden and got off in the city center.

"Damn, you guys are finally back, the meal had been ready for a while, you all must be hungry, right? Come on, let’s eat, head to the dining room." Li Zihan said cheerfully.

Bai Long, Chen Xin, and Uncle Cai greeted young master Li briefly before hurrying off.

Cheng Shi and Wang Meijuan, under the guidance of Nanny Chen, took two suitcases up to the second floor.

Tang Xiaowan, having snacked throughout the journey, wasn’t hungry, but not wanting to refuse the gracious offer, also headed to the dining room with Li Zishen and Li Zihan.

The meal was completely catered by the Immortal Restaurant, featuring their signature roast duck and eight additional dishes.

They hadn’t been sitting for five minutes when Cheng Shi swiftly approached, said something to Tang Xiaowan that others couldn’t hear, and quickly left after getting approval.

During the entire process, he didn’t speak to Li Zihan and barely even to Li Zishen, only nodding as a courtesy.

His imposing stature and stern features immediately captivated Li Zihan, "Master, no, sister-in-law, who is that guy?"

"Bodyguard."

"Not bad at all. Look at those muscles, clearly a tough guy, wow, so cool."

"Of course, my Cheng Shi is skilled."

"Really? How skilled? If we compare him to Little Black Dragon, who would come out on top, maybe we should..."

Tang Xiaowan’s smug expression made Li Zishen’s jealousy flare, prompting him to interject coldly, "Stop chatting, hurry up and eat. Don’t you have to get up early tomorrow? Do none of you have school anymore?"

Li Zihan, "..."

Tang Xiaowan: "..."

The atmosphere in the restaurant instantly froze, pausing for several seconds before the three people began to move their chopsticks and pick up dishes.

Outside the villa.

With a beep from the remote control, the trunk of the SUV opened.

Three suitcases with floral patterns immediately caught the eye, and in the corner space of the baffle, there was also a black travel bag.

Cheng Shi took it out and then got into the car.

At that moment, in a room on the first floor of the villa, two pairs of eyes were watching his every move.

Bai Long: "Brother Shen is really prescient!"

Chen Xin: "But why, don’t trust us, what’s the mistake?"

Bai Long: "To protect Lady Tang."

Chen Xin: "Afraid of a night attack?"

Bai Long: "Yes, very likely."

While the two were discussing, Chen Xin’s phone rang.

Without looking, he knew it was Lin Ping, so he calmly reached into his pocket and rejected the call.

Before leaving Mei Garden, Lin Ping had already called twice, and Chen Xin was particularly surprised, suspecting that Fang Yun had leaked the information.

The trip to Qingcheng was supposed to be confidential.

In Li Garden, even Nanny Chen and Li Zihan didn’t know, and fellow attendees like Uncle Cai and the bodyguards led by Bai Long were absolutely impossible to contact Lin Ping.

Therefore, Fang Yun became the prime suspect.

However, fortunately, since Lin Ping was devoted to Li Zishen and knew the high danger of going to Mei Garden, Chen Xin didn’t pursue it too much.

Bai Long’s mouth curved slightly: "I am heading back now."

Chen Xin quickly caught up, asking eagerly, "What about Cheng Shi, are we just leaving him be?"

"Whatever, Brother Shen didn’t ask us to watch him."

Just after Bai Long finished speaking and hadn’t even left the room, Chen Xin’s phone rang again, but this time it wasn’t a call, it was a message.

"Good luck!"

Bai Long left these words behind and walked away.

What does this guy mean, could he have known something?

Chen Xin hurriedly chased after him: "Bai Long."

Seeing Chen Xin’s distraught appearance, Bai Long patted his shoulder, evilly smiling: "I’m tired, don’t have time to bother with your trivial matters, handle it yourself, but we’re having lunch together tomorrow, you’re paying."

In other words, Lin Ping and Fang Yun are let off this time, but there won’t be a next time.

The reason for mooching a meal off Chen Xin wasn’t just for the free food, but to reassure him.

The two had known each other for over a decade and understood each other far too well.

"Alright, no problem."

"Leaving now, get some sleep."

Upon returning to his room, Chen Xin took out his phone and checked all the messages, indeed all were from Lin Ping.

"Has Brother Shen arrived at Li Garden yet?"

"Why aren’t you and Fang Yun answering my calls or replying to my messages, did something happen to Brother Shen, didn’t he run into trouble on the way?"

"Talk to me, is it urgent?"

"Why go back to Mei Garden when it’s so dangerous, was it Lady Tang’s idea? She insisted on going back, didn’t she?"

"Please, I’m really worried about Brother Shen facing danger, those people are in the shadows."

Chen Xin originally didn’t want to respond to Lin Ping, but due to her incessant string of messages, he had to reply.

"Arrived, safe and sound, do not disturb from now on, or bear the consequences, goodbye."
