Chapter 320: Chapter 316 Ji Beizhao

Following the stairs, Ling Chen descended slowly to the basement, scanning his surroundings cautiously to prevent anyone from suddenly appearing.

The villa’s basement was huge, nearly covering hundreds of square meters. Ling Chen, with his sharp eyes, noticed several wine barrels placed in a corner and slots on the walls. This place used to be a wine cellar, but now it had been cleared and was filled with computer equipment and devices.

Arriving at a side door on the eastern side of the basement, Ling Chen immediately heard voices coming from behind it. He pressed his ear against the door and instantly recognized the two familiar voices.

"Mr. Yun, could this drug have side effects on Wanqing’s health?"

"Rest assured, the dosage is well controlled, it won’t cause any adverse reactions. She’s my daughter, I care about her safety more than you do. By the way, is the research on that exoskeleton armor she’s wearing yet completed?"

"We’re still collecting data."

"Tell them to speed up; I don’t have much time to waste here. I need to return to the headquarters soon to report the current situation. After I leave, you will be entirely in charge of the affairs in East Sea City. Remember, don’t stir up trouble. Keep Ling Chen untouched for now; he is still useful to me."

"Yes," Zhu Hong replied, though his tone was noticeably reluctant.

At that moment, a new voice spoke, "Mr. Yun, the injection is complete, and Miss Nanrong’s vitals are all normal, without any adverse reactions."

"Good," Mr. Yun spoke, "Zhu Hong, take Wanqing back. Make sure the Nanrong family doesn’t notice."

"Yes, Mr. Yun."

Hearing they were about to leave, Ling Chen quickly retreated and followed the same path back to the villa. Soon, Zhu Hong, holding Nanrong Wanqing, exited and walked straight to the outdoors. Ling Chen secretly followed them, watching as Zhu Hong safely escorted Nanrong Wanqing back to her room.

After Zhu Hong left, Ling Chen hesitated for a moment and then abandoned the idea of intervening. He had just discovered the secret base of Mr. Yun and Zhu Hong and didn’t want to alert them prematurely. For now, they were unaware that their secret base had been exposed, providing him an excellent opportunity.

It’s finally my turn after being manipulated so many times, Ling Chen thought to himself.

...

The night passed without incident.

The next day.

Ling Chen got up early, sitting in the dining area, observing Nanrong Wanqing, who had just come downstairs, watching every move she made.

Feeling his unwavering gaze, Nanrong Wanqing’s cheeks turned slightly red, feeling sweet inside, yet she couldn’t help but coquettishly complained, "What are you looking at?"

Ling Chen grinned and said, "I’m not just looking, I’m admiring. I never understood what a feast for the eyes meant, but now I do."

Hearing his compliment, Nanrong Wanqing’s lips curved into a sweet smile, her eyes filled with shyness and delight.

Just as they were indulging in the tender moment, a displeased voice came from the staircase, "Showing affection so early in the morning, can you choose another place next time? Don’t do it in front of me. My teeth feel sour just after brushing."

Seeing Su Lin stretching lazily, her ample bust outlined and her lazy, enchanting demeanor as she came downstairs, Ling Chen unconsciously touched his nose and cleared his throat, shifting his gaze away. They say a woman freshly woken has her own unique charm, and indeed, it’s true.

During breakfast, Ling Chen looked at Nanrong Wanqing sitting across him and asked, "Wanqing, how are you feeling? Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Nanrong Wanqing thought he was just showing concern and didn’t think much about it, smiling as she replied, "I’m very good. I guess it’s because I had enough sleep these past few days. Usually, I feel tired after a day’s work, but I’ve been very energetic these days."

Ling Chen nodded and said, "That’s good."

Eight o’clock.

Ling Chen dropped Nanrong Wanqing off at the Hongyu Group headquarters and prepared to go to the security department to chat with Wei Jun and the others.

Taking the elevator to the lobby on the first floor, Ling Chen stepped out. Just then, an irate cursing voice came through: "How do you walk, are you blind or what?"

"Sorry, sorry," a familiar voice hurriedly apologized.

Hearing that voice, Ling Chen was slightly startled and looked over, only to see Ji Beizhao bending down on the ground picking up scattered items and putting them back into his handbag. Next to him stood a woman with her hands on her hips, pretty-looking but fierce, dressed in business attire, deliberately unbuttoning two buttons at the collar, revealing a patch of bare skin, seemingly quite adept at attracting men.

Ling Chen shook his head, thinking how such nice business attire is ruined by being worn so revealingly, deducing this woman was probably not a good sort.

He walked over to Ji Beizhao, bent down to help him pick up the items, and asked, "What happened?"

Ji Beizhao, seeing it was Ling Chen, a slight smile appeared on his gaunt face, "It’s nothing, I accidentally bumped into this lady."

While picking up the items, Ling Chen’s expression stiffened as he looked at the items in his hand, feeling a bit awkward. Damn, this woman actually carries something that could be blown up like a balloon, and she even brought five of them, how insatiably fierce.

Caught off guard, the woman also noticed the items in Ling Chen’s hand, her face slightly blushed, hurriedly snatched them from his hand, stuffed them into her upper garment pocket, and indignantly cursed, "What are you looking at, haven’t you seen such things? Pervert!"

Pervert?

Ling Chen immediately felt annoyed, he hadn’t harassed her. Besides, he wouldn’t even be interested in her type.

"Miss, watch how you speak. Don’t just curse people."

The woman, chest thrust forward, looked at Ling Chen disdainfully and said, "So what if I curse you, cursing you is still giving you face."

Ling Chen’s face darkened, if it weren’t for her being a woman, he would have taught her a lesson by now. At this moment, Ji Beizhao, noticing Ling Chen’s displeasure, quickly advised, "Chen, it’s just a small matter, we’re all employees of the same company, no need to blow it up."

Hearing this, the woman scoffed coldly, "You two are such big men, yet have no temper at all, worse than trash, truly a disgrace to men." Saying this, she picked up her handbag from the ground and said haughtily, "A good dog doesn’t block the way, get lost quickly, don’t delay my work time."

"Work?" Ling Chen’s mouth curved slightly, casually saying, "You bring so many indecent items to Hongyu Group, I seriously doubt what kind of work you do."

The woman’s expression froze, coldly saying, "What do you mean?"

"There are two meanings to working, one is working for Hongyu Group, and the second... is working for yourself, like engaging in some kind of indecent service. What do you think, miss?" As he spoke, Ling Chen emphatically stressed the word ’miss,’ the implication clear.

"You..." The woman, clearly understanding Ling Chen’s insinuation, instantly turned frosty, eyes burning with anger, burst out cursing, "You dare insult me."
