Chapter 616: Chapter 588 Concerns

"Uh..."

Li Chen looked somewhat awkwardly at An Qin.

He hadn’t expected the man who he had originally perceived as a male, to suddenly turn into a woman.

During their recent encounter, he had not held back much, and it seemed he even kicked her in the... buttocks?

Originally, Li Chen had only thought the man in front of him was somewhat handsome, nothing more. As a straight man who couldn’t be straighter, how could he have any thoughts about another man?

But knowing the other person was a woman, Li Chen felt something was off.

After all, they did not share the kind of life-and-death enmity he had with Li Xinmei; grabbing her chest and kicking her buttocks was not too appropriate...

"Cough cough, you..." Li Chen was about to explain when he saw An Qin charge straight towards him from not too far away.

"Bastard!!" At that moment, Li Chen finally heard the other person’s voice clearly.

That... indeed sounded like a woman’s voice, right?

Boom!!

A fierce kick landed on Li Chen’s chest, and he was instantly sent flying, his body crashing onto the rooftop of another building.

Looking at Li Chen, An Qin was visibly furious, then turned her head and quickly left the scene.

Li Chen watched An Qin’s retreating figure somewhat helplessly.

The other’s strength was not weaker than his, and she was also incredibly fast; he knew that even if he continued the chase, he wouldn’t be able to catch up to her.

Shaking his head, giving up on further pursuit, Li Chen turned around and walked towards the direction of his company.

When Li Chen returned to the office through the window, he was taken aback to find that Wang Qianqian had indeed obediently not stayed in the office. However, she was just standing at the office door. And not just Wang Qianqian, Lin Yi was also there.

With a somewhat helpless roll of his eyes, Li Chen knew that Wang Qianqian was concerned about him. Fortunately, the other party did not seem to have any intention of harming them.

"What happened just now?" Lin Yi came over and, seeing that Li Chen was not injured aside from some dust on him, finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked.

"Nothing to worry about," Li Chen patted his chest and said, "Even if there were any issues, couldn’t your husband handle it?"

Seeing Li Chen’s reaction, Lin Yi couldn’t help but roll her eyes. But since Li Chen didn’t want to talk about it, she didn’t pry further.

Li Chen didn’t want Lin Yi to worry. For her safety, he thought it was better not to tell her some things, because apart from making her worry, there wasn’t much point in doing so.

"However, that woman’s strength..." A serious look flashed in Li Chen’s slightly lowered eyes.

He hadn’t felt any murderous intent from her, yet her strength was shockingly formidable to him.

It should be noted that, by now, his own strength had soared to a terrifying degree. He was confident that he could easily handle his former self.

But this woman he had encountered was able to match him in strength, and that was indeed shocking for Li Chen.

Nevertheless, he still had water from the Cold Pool, and some Silver Elixir left, which gave him a bit of confidence.

"Right, did Zhong Tian come to work today?" Li Chen suddenly turned to Lin Yi and asked.

"It seems he did. I even saw him," Lin Yi paused, then nodded in affirmation.

Hearing that Zhong Tian was in the company, Li Chen nodded, soothed Lin Yi and Wang Qianqian with a few words, and then went straight to find Zhong Tian.

"Senior apprentice brother?"

Zhong Tian was patrolling dutifully when he suddenly saw Li Chen appear, causing him to pause in surprise.

"Zhong Tian, come over here, I have something I want to talk to you about."

"Okay!"

Having found a quiet office, Li Chen’s expression finally became grave.

"Senior Brother, what’s wrong? Did you encounter some difficult problem?" Although Zhong Tian seemed rather silly, his mind was actually quite sharp.

"There is indeed a problem." There was nothing Li Chen felt the need to hide from Zhong Tian, and he nodded, "When you’re at the company, help me keep an eye on the surroundings, and also, help me protect Lin Yi and Wang Qianqian’s safety, can you?"

"No problem!" Zhong Tian replied cheerfully, "I’m now a security guard, isn’t it my job to ensure everyone’s safety?"

"Not everyone, just pay special attention to the two of them," Li Chen emphasized again.

Seeing Li Chen’s serious face, Zhong Tian finally nodded earnestly.

At that moment, a little head suddenly popped out from the ground nearby.

"Yi Ya—"

Seeing Li Chen and Zhong Tian present, the Ginseng Doll called out, then it directly jumped onto Zhong Tian’s head.

Apparently finding Zhong Tian’s short hair a bit prickly, the Ginseng Doll uttered a complaint, then hopped onto Li Chen’s head and started toying with his hair.

"Little guy, how did you get here?" Upon seeing the Ginseng Doll appear, Li Chen’s expression also rarefied, easing up.

This little fellow was a bundle of joy. It was hard not to like it when you saw it.

"Yi Ya Yi Ya!"

The Ginseng Doll pointed at Li Chen’s chest.

"You can smell that?" Li Chen was surprised, he then quickly produced a small water bottle from his chest. Inside was clearly water from the Cold Pool.

"It’s all yours." Seeing the drooling look on the Ginseng Doll’s face, Li Chen smiled and handed over the water bottle to it.

"Alright, I’m off now, but remember to be extra careful recently," Li Chen said to Zhong Tian with a serious expression.

Zhong Tian nodded.

After work, Li Chen drove Lin Yi back to the villa.

Wang Qianqian said she needed to think about moving in, and Li Chen didn’t press her, but in his opinion, at the moment, it still wasn’t very safe for Wang Qianqian to be alone.

"What’s the matter? Something on your mind?"

Once at home, Lin Yi looked at Li Chen and suddenly asked.

Having been with Li Chen for so long, Lin Yi could detect even the slightest irregularity.

"It’s nothing." Li Chen shook his head gently, then his face broke into a smile as he looked at Lin Yi, "I didn’t expect my beautiful wife to be so concerned about me, huh?"

"I don’t care about you at all!" Lin Yi huffed and turned her head away.

"Ouch! I said the wrong thing!"

Li Chen quickly got behind Lin Yi, gently wrapped his arms around her, and laughed, "If my beautiful wife doesn’t care about me, then who would?"

"I’m not, I hope you drop dead!" Lin Yi grumbled.

"Uh..."

Li Chen coughed and then said somewhat awkwardly, "I have profoundly realized my mistake just now. Wife, you’ll forgive me this one time, right?"

"What if I say ’no’?!" Lin Yi still hadn’t turned around, but Li Chen saw a faint smile on the corners of her mouth.

"Then I’m out of options," Li Chen said as he let go of her.

Just as Lin Yi was wondering if she had gone too far and upset Li Chen, preparing to turn around, she saw Li Chen suddenly appear in front of her, his fervent kiss landing instantly.

"Mmmhmm..."
