Chapter 314: Chapter 310: Nanrong Hao Gets Injured

"Trouble?" Ling Chen’s expression tightened, and he asked hastily, "What happened?"

"Mr. Nanrong had a conflict with someone."

"Haozi?" Ling Chen immediately relaxed. It wasn’t that he didn’t care about Nanrong Hao; it’s just that Nanrong Hao is a man, and it’s quite normal for him to experience setbacks and pain. What he’s most worried about is Nanrong Wanqing. As long as she’s alright, nothing else is a problem.

Upon returning to Wealthy Manor, Ling Chen went straight to the villa. After entering, he realized that both Nanrong Wanqing and Su Lin were not there. It was only after asking Nanny Wang that he found out both women had run off to Nanrong Hao’s villa.

Inside Nanrong Hao’s place, Ling Chen caught sight of Nanrong Hao sitting in a wheelchair, his arms and abdomen wrapped in bandages and his face bruised and swollen, looking just like a mummy. This drew an unfeeling grin from Ling Chen.

Hearing the laughter at the doorway, Nanrong Wanqing, Su Lin, and Nanrong Hao all turned their heads to look at Ling Chen as he walked in.

With a frustrated face, Nanrong Hao said, "Chen, I’m like this, and you’re still laughing."

Ling Chen quirked a smile. "It’s fine. You’re a grown man; it’s okay to get hurt. It doesn’t matter if you’re disfigured; you’re not handsome anyway." After teasing him, he couldn’t suppress his curiosity and asked, "By the way, who did this to you?"

Although Nanrong Hao was no expert, he had trained for so long with Ling Chen after all. It would be difficult for four or five ordinary guys to get close to him, so Ling Chen was rather curious.

"Ah," Nanrong Hao sighed and said, "let’s not talk about it. It’s embarrassing."

"There are no strangers here, what’s there to be embarrassed about. If you want me to stand up for you, then spit it out."

"So, here’s the thing..."

Nanrong Hao then explained his ordeal.

After hearing the story, Ling Chen frowned slightly, a trace of coldness in his eyes.

Recently, Nanrong Hao had been busy with Jiang Hao and Zhao Zhengxiong, working on setting up a courier company. They had already notified Qi Jianhui of the Green Tiger Gang, intending to open five courier branches in his territory. All started well because Qi Jianhui, knowing Nanrong Hao’s background, did not dare to easily provoke him, and the two sides coexisted peacefully.

But lately, for some unknown reason, Qi Jianhui, as if emboldened by a surge of ambition, openly went against Jiang Hao and his group. Not only did he send people to cause trouble at their courier companies, threatening them to pay protection money, but he also beat up their couriers, causing significant losses to the company.

Because of this, Nanrong Hao and Jiang Hao and the others were furious and wanted to teach Qi Jianhui a lesson to make him back down. But Qi Jianhui, far from being subdued, stepped up his hostility, even smashing two of their companies.

In the underworld, only those with stronger fists have a say.

After much thought, Nanrong Hao and the others decided to gather their power, call for reinforcements, and directly take over Qi Jianhui’s territory.

Zhao Zhengxiong was cautious, having dealt with Qi Jianhui in the past. Before making a move, he thoroughly investigated Qi Jianhui’s background and accurately counted the numbers of the Green Tiger Gang. To defeat the Green Tiger Gang, Jiang Hao had gathered twice as many people as the opponent.

With so many people, none of the three from the Nanrong family ever thought they could lose.

Last night, the trio split up, each leading hundreds of subordinates, prepared to siege the stronghold of the Green Tiger Gang. Everything went smoothly at the start, Nanrong Hao and his two companions easily took down the Green Tiger Gang’s stronghold, leaving Qi Jianhui with no way out.

But at that moment, an unexpected force emerged. Although outnumbered, they were all skilled and not weak by any means. It wasn’t long before Nanrong Hao and his men were effortlessly defeated in the clash, both Jiang Hao and Zhao Zhengxiong suffered injuries, and with Nanrong Hao covering the rear, he was even more seriously hurt, sustaining a dislocated arm and a stab wound to his belly. Fortunately, the vital organs were missed, and he escaped with his life.

"Do you know who they were?" Ling Chen asked.

Nanrong Hao shook his head, "Not sure for now. Hao is looking into it, but what we can be sure of is that those people were not Qi Jianhui’s men."

"What’s your plan?"

"Do I even need to say it? Once I’ve recovered from my injuries, I’ll make sure those jerks pay. If we don’t settle this, how can we ever mix in the circles again?"

Watching Nanrong Hao furiously talk, Nanrong Wanqing couldn’t help but stand up and say, "Ling Chen, come out for a moment, I have something to tell you."

Seeing Nanrong Wanqing walk out, Ling Chen winked at Nanrong Hao, smiled slightly, and quickly followed her steps. In fact, without saying much, Ling Chen could guess what was on her mind.

Once outside the villa, Nanrong Wanqing turned back, looked at Ling Chen who was grinning, and chided, "And you’re laughing. I left my brother in your care, hoping you would help him grow. Look at what he’s become now, just yelling about fighting and killing, no different than a street thug. If he continues like this, how can I trust him with the Hongyu Group in the future?"

Ling Chen corrected, "That’s not right. Actually, what Haozi is doing right now is not fundamentally different from running the Hongyu Group. At least now he’s sort of a big brother, managing quite a few people under him. As a boss, he has to think about how to make money and ensure his subordinates aren’t going hungry, while also regularly bonding with them to win their hearts. If something happens, he has to negotiate with others. Honestly, don’t think those bosses have nothing to do and just enjoy life; they work harder than you, a chairman, with everything being hands-on. Once he becomes a competent boss, I believe he’ll have the necessary ability to manage the Hongyu Group."

Nanrong Wanqing gave him an annoyed glance and said, "Your reasoning is twisted. Okay, enough joking, I’m not interested in what he wants to do; I’m just worried about his safety. You know the current situation at the Nanrong family is unstable; if someone has it out for him..."

"Don’t worry, I’m here. I won’t let anything happen to him," Ling Chen grinned and said, "After all, he’s going to be my future brother-in-law."

Hearing this, Nanrong Wanqing’s face blushed, feeling sweet inside, but she retorted coquettishly, "Nothing is set in stone yet, don’t speak so early."

"Is that so?" Ling Chen smiled mischievously, reaching out with both hands, he wrapped them around Nanrong Wanqing’s slender waist, and then gently pushed forward, pressing her delicate body against his strong chest.

Nanrong Wanqing’s face turned red as she said, "What are you trying to do?"

Ling Chen leaned into her ear and whispered, "Didn’t you just say nothing was decided yet? How about we make that first stroke?"

"No." Feeling the warm breath of Ling Chen tickling the sensitive spot behind her ear, Nanrong Wanqing’s body trembled slightly, overcome with embarrassment, she quickly pushed Ling Chen away, her face bashfully frustrated, "It’s broad daylight, no touching."

Ling Chen chuckled, "So you mean it’s not okay during the day, but it’s okay at night? Fine, I’ll come see you tonight."
