Chapter 344: Chapter 340: Mr. Yun’s Visit

After hesitating for a long time, Bai Huanjun raised his head, seemingly determined, and looked directly into Ling Chen’s clear eyes, saying, "If you want me to follow you, fine! But you must agree to one demand."

"Speak." Ling Chen suppressed the joy in his heart and replied indifferently.

"First, give me two million, I urgently need it. After I get the money, I need to leave for a while. When I have dealt with my matters, I will come back to you and fulfill my promise."

Jiang Yunkai slightly frowned and said, "How do we know you will keep your word? If you take the money and run, where would we find you?"

Bai Huanjun glared at Jiang Yunkai and retorted, "Assassins value reputation the most, I do what I say. If you don’t believe me, I..."

"I believe you," Ling Chen interjected, "Although you have tried to kill me several times, I am willing to trust you once. First, take good care of your injuries. Tomorrow I’ll bring the money."

Leaving the hospital room, Jiang Yunkai closely followed behind Ling Chen, asking, "Do you think he can be trusted?"

"I don’t know." Ling Chen smiled faintly, "If two million can test his sincerity, I think it’s worth it." This was his sincere thought; Bai Huanjun was a capable man, and having him on board would undoubtedly be a significant help.

Moreover, two million wasn’t much; the reward from the Nanrong Family would probably exceed this amount.

After dealing with Bai Huanjun’s matter, Ling Chen returned to his car and then took out his phone, dialing a number.

Dial tone...

"Hello!"

A familiar voice came through, and Ling Chen smiled, saying, "Elder Qiu, it’s me. You remember me, right?"

"It’s Ling. What do you need from me, Ling?"

"It’s like this..." Ling Chen then shared the incident involving Dongfang Yu’s appearance the previous night. After listening, Qiu Yong snorted slightly, his voice tinged with a hint of coldness, "Although Dongfang Yu’s disciple is a master from the Dragon List, he’s nothing but scum. Such a person isn’t worth mourning over. If Dongfang Yu seeks revenge, let him come. We siblings are not afraid."

"Elder Qiu, I know you all are formidable, but Dongfang Yu is, after all, a master from the Earthly List, better be careful."

"I know that. But, a mere master from the Earthly List is not worth our attention. Ling, anyway, we siblings thank you for your reminder."

"Don’t mention it, let’s meet up again when you’re free."

After hanging up the phone, Ling Chen drove straight back to the headquarters of Hongyu Group.

Upon arriving at the company entrance, Ling Chen suddenly saw a luxury car parked outside, casually glanced at the license plate, and his expression suddenly changed.

It’s him!

Why has he come here?

Without further thought, Ling Chen quickly got out of the car and hurried toward Nanrong Wanqing’s private elevator. At the same time, he pulled out his phone and frantically dialed Nanrong Wanqing’s number.

However, the call was met with a busy signal, indicating the line was already in use.

Could something have happened? Ling Chen anxiously wondered, watching the elevator numbers changing constantly, his brow slightly furrowed.

Ding!

With a crisp sound, the elevator finally reached the top floor of Hongyu Group.

Ling Chen strode briskly, covering three steps in two, quickly rushing to the door of the chairman’s office. Ignoring the shouting of Secretary Wang Lan, he directly pushed the door and walked in.

Upon entering, Ling Chen immediately heard a burst of hearty laughter. Looking intently, he saw a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes sitting on the office sofa, with two personal bodyguards standing behind him. The middle-aged man had a gentle smile and a refined aura, giving off an approachable feeling. At this moment, Nanrong Wanqing was sitting opposite the middle-aged man, laughing brightly about something amusing.

Ling Chen’s sudden intrusion immediately drew everyone’s attention. The two suit-clad bodyguards standing behind the middle-aged man saw Ling Chen appear, their expressions changed slightly, and they immediately reached for their waist, watching Ling Chen warily.

Nanrong Wanqing did not notice the unusual behavior of the two suit-clad bodyguards. She walked up to Ling Chen, smiled lightly, and said, "How come you’re here? Let me introduce you, this is Mr. Yun. Mr. Yun is an overseas Chinese running a large enterprise abroad, and he’s here in East Sea City to discuss cooperation with our Hongyu Group."

During her speech, Mr. Yun had already stood up from the sofa, fastened the button in front of his suit, and strode towards Ling Chen, extending his hand with a smile, "Hello, I’m pleased to meet you."

"Mr. Yun, this is Ling Chen, an employee of our company’s security department," Nanrong Wanqing introduced.

Ling Chen stared at Mr. Yun in front of him, shaking his hand with a faint smile, "I’m also very pleased to meet you."

Mr. Yun seemed not to notice the sharpness in Ling Chen’s eyes, turned his head to look at Nanrong Wanqing, and said, "Miss Nanrong, I still have matters to attend to. Let’s find another time to have a good chat and discuss business."

"No problem."

"Then, I’ll be going first."

"I’ll see you out."

After leaving the chairman’s office, Ling Chen and Nanrong Wanqing, along with Mr. Yun and his two suit-clad bodyguards, walked into the chairman’s private elevator. However, when Nanrong Wanqing was about to enter the elevator, Ling Chen stopped her, giving a slight smile, "You go ahead with your work, I’ll take them down."

"Okay." Nanrong Wanqing nodded gently, not insisting, "Mr. Yun, take care, and you’re welcome to visit Hongyu Group again."

"Sure thing," Mr. Yun replied with a smile.

The elevator doors slowly closed. At the moment when Nanrong Wanqing was blocked outside the elevator, Mr. Yun’s two suit-clad bodyguards quickly drew out daggers from their waists, guarded Mr. Yun behind them, and raised their knives, ready to stab Ling Chen.

"Stop!" Mr. Yun shouted to stop them, then pointed at the upper left corner of the elevator, where there was a surveillance camera.

"What are you doing here?"

Hearing Ling Chen’s question, Mr. Yun, still smiling, replied, "Why can’t I come here? As a father, don’t I have the right to see my daughter?"

Ling Chen curled his lips, "I don’t believe you."

"So, what do you want to do, catch me now?"

It must be said, Mr. Yun’s words somewhat tempted Ling Chen. With only two suit-clad bodyguards present, it was the best opportunity to apprehend Mr. Yun. However, seeing the mysterious smile on Mr. Yun’s face, Ling Chen was not very confident.

This man dared to come to Hongyu Group openly; he couldn’t possibly be unprepared. For a moment, he hesitated.

Mr. Yun glanced at the elevator’s floor display, smiling ambiguously, "We will soon reach the lobby, if you don’t act now, there won’t be another chance."

Ling Chen’s brows furrowed, his piercing gaze sweeping back and forth over the two suit-clad bodyguards, still unable to make up his mind.

Ding!

The elevator door opened, and Ling Chen, burdened with too many concerns, ultimately did not make a move. He silently followed behind Mr. Yun, walking straight out of the company’s main entrance.
