Madman!

This guy is a madman!

At this moment, the men following Xu Fei and Xiao He had not a single thought of resistance left; their hearts were filled with endless fear.

You have to know that even though Xu Fei isn't a direct descendant of the Xu family, he still has the blood of the Xu family.

In all of Huaxia, just mentioning the Xu family name is enough to make anyone tremble with fear.

Yet, this guy didn't just disregard the Xu family, he even broke Xu Fei's leg.

Tap, tap, tap!

Lin Chen's gaze, carrying a chill, slowly moved towards the bodyguards who had come with Xu Fei.

"Glug!"

The other bodyguards swallowed hard. If Hei Feng and the four King Kongs were no match for Lin Chen, then these minor characters were simply courting death.

As they saw Lin Chen drawing nearer, their faces turned deathly pale, and their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Lin... Mr. Lin, we were just responsible for protecting Xu Fei; the matter of capturing Miss Xiao has nothing to do with us, please let us go!" a middle-aged man said, his face showing fear and panic.

Although there were still seven or eight of them, each one was so intimidated by Lin Chen's ruthlessness that they were sweating profusely; they simply lacked the courage to confront Lin Chen and could only beg desperately for mercy.

Seeing this scene, the people from Huamei Group were dumbfounded.

There were many in the Huamei Group who had heard of the Xu family name. Usually, an ordinary Xu family bodyguard would be arrogantly domineering outside, but now, these people were begging like grandsons in front of Lin Chen.

Lin Chen looked at these people and snorted coldly, "Go back and tell the Xu and Xiao families that the Xiao sisters are my people. This is just a small warning; next time, whoever moves against them dies."

Boom!

The hall fell into silence.

Lin Chen was too arrogant, too domineering. 'Whoever moves against them dies'—was he challenging the Xu family?

The corners of those Xu family bodyguards' mouths twitched involuntarily. Lin Chen was simply too mad; he even dared to threaten the Xu family.

Xiao He's face turned even paler upon seeing this. Initially, he thought that by relying on the Xu family, an immense tree, he was guaranteed glory and wealth, even the right to rule supreme in Shanghai. But he ended up encountering Lin Chen, the madman, who had directly crippled his leg.

If Xiao He had known Lin Chen was so formidable and ruthless, he wouldn't have come even if killed.

Although filled with regret at this moment, he still felt a sense of relief as if he had survived a great disaster.

Lin Chen's gaze turned icy as he ordered the men, "You have half an hour to get rid of this trash and clean the floor."

As his words ended, a chill went through the men's hearts. They hurriedly carried away the injured and cleaned up all the traces of blood from the floor.

Everyone left, leaving only the Xiao sisters in the room.

Xiao Zixuan looked at Lin Chen with a hint of tenderness in her eyes, "Lin Chen, you've saved us sisters again. How should I thank you?"

Lin Chen offered an awkward smile, "No need to be polite, wasn't my task to protect you sisters?"

Xiao Zixuan's face flushed with a hint of red, "Seeing as you've done well, I'll give you two hours off. You can come back later after work."

Two hours off?

Upon hearing Xiao Zixuan's words, Lin Chen was taken aback, not understanding what tricks this girl was up to now.

Did he intentionally make himself come back late, just to allow both sisters to express their gratitude by offering themselves to me?

The more Lin Chen thought about it, the more plausible this idea seemed to him.

Both Xiao Zixuan and Xiao Ziting were exceptionally beautiful, and the thought of them both attending to him, one on the left and the other on the right, was, indeed, perfect!

After work, since Xiao Zixuan had asked Lin Chen to come back later, he didn't drive home but took the subway instead.

Upon arriving at the subway station, he saw a young man running ahead with a yellow shoulder bag, chased relentlessly by a policewoman in uniform.

A cop chasing a thief? Lin Chen smiled faintly, but his expression froze when his gaze landed on the policewoman, who turned out to be Wu Shitong.

Goodness, is this girl pretending to be a cop again?

Lin Chen vividly remembered the last time Wu Shitong pretended to be a cop to catch him, how she had grabbed him firmly 'there'. Even though Lin Chen had joined the 118 Bureau, they had not contacted him since, and unexpectedly he bumped into Wu Shitong here today.

In the instant the thief crossed paths with Lin Chen, Lin Chen lightly raised his foot, causing the thief to thump down to the ground.

Wu Shitong, who was behind, rushed over quickly, twisted the thief's arm, and cuffed him immediately.

Looking up with a smile, Wu Shitong said, "Thank you so much!"

However, seeing Lin Chen, Wu Shitong was taken aback, "Lin Chen, what are you doing here?"

Lin Chen smiled, "Playing cop is addictive, huh? You're in uniform again."

Wu Shitong huffed, "Who says I'm pretending to be a cop? I'm a real, bona fide policewoman."

With that, Wu Shitong flipped her arm, and a police officer's badge appeared in front of Lin Chen.

"You're really a cop?" Lin Chen was stunned.

"Of course, so your assumption that day was wrong," Wu Shitong said with pride.

After handing the thief over to the patrol officers who had rushed over, Wu Shitong said with a smile, "Come on, to say thanks, let me buy you a cup of coffee. I've got something to ask you."

In the coffee shop, Lin Chen sat across from Wu Shitong. For some reason, the sight of her in a police uniform kept bringing back memories of their ambiguous encounter.

Stirring her coffee, Wu Shitong smiled and said, "We from the 118 Bureau all have our regular jobs, just like ordinary people. But once there's a mission, we're called together—and that includes you."

"So that's how it is!" Lin Chen nodded, no wonder the 118 Bureau hadn't been in touch recently; he had thought he was forgotten.

Wu Shitong gazed earnestly at Lin Chen and said, "Lin Chen, I hear the 118 Bureau will be selecting some elites to enter the ruins soon."

"Oh!" Lin Chen nodded, his eyes on Wu Shitong, but he said nothing.

"If possible, I hope that you can choose me to join your team," Wu Shitong said seriously.

"Hold on, I choose you? I've just joined the 118 Bureau; I don't have more seniority than you, do I?" Lin Chen asked, puzzled.

Wu Shitong looked helpless as she said, "I've got wind that for some reason the higher-ups have decided to make you the team leader for this operation, and you can freely choose the team members. It's a done deal; it just hasn't been announced publicly yet."

"I see, so you're looking to pull some strings," Lin Chen said with a smile.

Looking intently at Lin Chen, Wu Shitong affirmed, "It's not about pulling strings; you have to choose me."

Lin Chen smiled faintly, "Choose you? You're the classic 'all brawn and no brains'. Why should I choose you?"

At Lin Chen's words, Wu Shitong's face turned bright red with anger.

Lin Chen had expected Wu Shitong to explode, but surprisingly she was extraordinarily calm, not only refraining from anger but also looking at him with a pleading expression, "Lin Chen, please, I want to find my father!"
