Chapter 324: Chapter 300: Don’t Even Think About Getting Married!
Looking around at the stunned expressions of surprise, Old Zhao gently huffed, his face brimming with pride. "You didn’t believe me before, so why are you all acting like you’ve seen a ghost now?"
The group debated for a moment, and one person said, "Hey hey hey, Old Zhou, are you done yet? Lend me the binoculars."
"I haven’t finished yet, wait a bit longer."
"What do you mean you haven’t finished? I haven’t even had a look yet, and you’ve been looking for so long," another person added, "It’s my turn now."
"I want to have a look too."
Suddenly, the colleagues started arguing, purely because they hadn’t brought binoculars, and there was only one pair in the entire travel group.
"Let me have my fill first, I want to look too."
This group of people actually started fighting over a pair of binoculars.
Elsewhere, Li Chen, having greatly increased his strength and absorbed a tenth of the Mysterious Energy within him and achieved a breakthrough in his Cultivation Technique, was fully confident in climbing Duan Ya Mountain.
He moved rapidly and before long, he could see the lush trees.
The roots of these trees were all growing in the crevices between rocks and had grown lush and leafy over the long years.
Seeing these trees meant that he was not far from the summit.
At that moment on the summit of Duan Ya Mountain.
That day’s events were smooth sailing, and the head of the Li Family had some maneuvers. Originally, a tourist had uploaded a video online which began to ferment among netizens, but it was quickly deleted.
Overall, the whole affair just faded away.
On the summit, inside a pavilion.
Two elders set up a chessboard and were engaged in a game.
"Hey hey hey, Old Sun, you just moved the chariot, why are you thinking of backing out now?"
"I didn’t see clearly just now, it doesn’t count."
"No, a move once played cannot be taken back, there’s no such thing as it doesn’t count," another old man objected fiercely, "Clearly you saw that I was about to win and now you want to cheat, that’s not acceptable, absolutely not."
"Where were you about to win? Clearly, there are still five Qi steps, and I can see them."
Old Sun and the man started arguing out loud.
Eventually, Old Sun’s opponent couldn’t out-argue him and said, "Alright, alright, if you want to take back your move, take it back, but even then, you can’t win. After today, that Purple Sand Pot is mine."
The old man was quite pleased with himself.
Old Sun didn’t say anything but kept staring at the board, deep in thought, "Can I move here? No, no, his cannon is still targeting there. If I move here, as soon as his knight comes over, I have to move, and if I move, it’s game over."
Old Sun hesitated for a while, originally gripping a knight, but unsure of his next move. The chess skills between him and his opponent were evenly matched. Like in this game, the opponent’s pieces were few, and he had managed to penetrate the opponent’s backline with his chariot and two knights. Unexpectedly, his opponent had set a trap and was about to checkmate him first.
"Old Sun, if you can’t see a way out, just give up."
The man laughed out loud, and at that moment, a hand suddenly appeared at the edge of the pavilion, and then a head popped up.
With a forceful push of his hand, all of a sudden, Li Chen leaped into the pavilion with Lin Xiaoxiao in his arms. However, his movement technique made no sound at all, and since the two old men were also focused on the chessboard, they didn’t notice that two more people had appeared inside the pavilion.
Li Chen walked past Old Sun, glanced at the chessboard, and with a flick of his fingers, immediately, the knight on Old Sun’s side captured the opponent’s advisor.
Old Sun was stunned, and so was his opponent. Both lifted their heads only to find that Li Chen and Lin Xiaoxiao had already left.
"How should we count this?" asked the opponent, while Old Sun, seeing this move, started to ponder. Then his eyes brightened, "What a brilliant move, it’s a hidden killer move."
"Of course, it counts," Old Sun chuckled, his mind now focused on the game of chess, having forgotten all about the incident that had just occurred.
It was as if Li Chen had never come out.
...
Before long, he was back inside the villa.
As soon as he arrived at the villa, Li Chen headed straight for Lin Yi’s room without a word.
Upon checking, however, he discovered that Lin Yi was not there, causing Li Chen’s heart to sink slightly.
That day, he had left Lin Yi on that tree, which indeed saved Lin Yi’s life, and Lin Yi could have been rescued since he still had his mobile phone with him.
If he’s not here, then there is only one possibility, but, it shouldn’t be.
Li Chen furrowed his brows; if Lin Yi truly wasn’t there, then he must have been taken away by the Li Family.
Li Chen didn’t say a word and moved on to the room of Aunt Wang, which was equally deserted.
A foreboding sensation emerged in his heart, and Li Chen quickly dialed the company’s number, but similarly, no one answered the call.
Isn’t Tingting supposed to be there?
The thought grew stronger, and after quickly washing and changing his clothes, Li Chen headed to Lin’s Group, only to find, surprisingly, that the normally bustling Lin’s Group had not a single person today.
Pushing open the door, Li Chen frowned; the receptionist girl was gone, and the lobby was completely empty.
The whole company seemed as if there was no one around.
What’s going on?
Li Chen started to search, finding no one on the second floor, the third floor, nor even up to the ninth floor.
It wasn’t until he arrived at the laboratory that Li Chen finally spotted a figure and hurried over with a surge of relief.
Upon closer look, it turned out to be Wang Qianqian, who was at her workstation, sorting her belongings. At that moment, Wang Qianqian also heard a sound behind her and turned around, utterly shocked.
"Brother Cheen."
Seeing Li Chen approach, Wang Qianqian’s face showed a mixture of shock and joy as she threw herself into his arms.
"Brother Cheen, I thought you had disappeared."
Li Chen held Wang Qianqian for a moment before separating them and asked seriously, "Qianqian, what has happened?"
"Brother Cheen, don’t you know?" Wang Qianqian was startled by Li Chen’s question.
Li Chen shook his head, and seeing Wang Qianqian’s demeanor, a bad premonition seemed to arise.
"Our company is going to be dissolved, at President Lin’s behest. But he seems not to be in Linchuan; he said it over the phone to Tingting," said Wang Qianqian, her voice heavy with sorrow, since she had been attached to the company for so long.
Dissolved?
Li Chen was stunned, then asked immediately, "Why is it being dissolved?"
"Because President Lin is getting married," Wang Qianqian said.
Getting married?
Li Chen, upon hearing this news, felt as if he had been struck hard. Getting married, to whom?
Inside, it felt as if a fierce beast was trying to break free. Yes, it must be the Li Family, but, did you consider asking me? I say I don’t agree, and if I don’t, don’t even think about getting married!
