Chapter 683: Chapter 655: Beyond Cure

Upon hearing this information, Li Chen hardly hesitated before turning around and saying to Wang Qianqian, "Qianqian, stay at home; I’ll be right back after a quick outing!"

Before Wang Qianqian could respond, Li Chen had already turned and bolted outside.

For Li Chen, An Qin was now his only chance.

Finding An Qin meant he might have found solutions to many problems; perhaps even Wang Qianqian could be saved.

"Keep her there, don’t let her leave! Oh, and remember to be polite," Li Chen instructed the Nether Army.

"Yes," a voice from the phone responded.

After reporting the location, Li Chen immediately rushed to the place the Nether Army had mentioned.

This time, An Qin had not left.

Maybe she didn’t want to leave after all.

When Li Chen arrived, he saw An Qin casually sipping tea on the side.

"I..."

Li Chen had not finished speaking when An Qin raised her hand to stop him, "I know what you’re about to ask, but I won’t answer too many questions."

With that, An Qin extended a finger toward Li Chen.

"One question, I will only answer one question, so think carefully before you ask."

Hearing An Qin’s words, Li Chen’s eyes reflected deep thought. Soon after, he made up his mind, looked at An Qin, and asked, "I want to know how to save Wang Qianqian!"

At Li Chen’s question, An Qin frowned and then responded, "You mean, the girl possessed by the golden bug?"

Li Chen nodded.

An Qin’s expression grew graver, "You do know how to trouble someone."

"Normally, being possessed by these kinds of golden bugs means there’s no way out, certain death," An Qin said.

Hearing An Qin’s words, Li Chen’s expression darkened even more.

"Is there really no other way?" Li Chen asked again.

"There is!" said An Qin, extending her hand, "unless those four house servants of yours take action, otherwise, there’s no chance."

"House servants?" Li Chen was stunned; he certainly didn’t remember having any house servants. At most, there was just Aunt Wang at home; where did these four house servants come from?

Hm? Four?

Suddenly, an odd glint flashed across Li Chen’s eyes.

Indeed, Li Chen thought of his four grandfathers.

Among those he knew, only his four grandfathers were profoundly mysterious, and coincidentally, there were four of them. As for his own origins, Li Chen himself was uncertain.

"What four house servants?" he pondered and asked An Qin.

However, it seemed An Qin was no longer intent on continuing to answer; watching Li Chen, she simply shook her head lightly and remained silent.

Seeing An Qin’s demeanor, Li Chen realized he was out of options.

If it were before they met, maybe he could have resorted to some coercive measures.

But now, owing his life to An Qin, how could he lay a hand on her?

"That’s all I can say. As for how you choose to handle it, that’s your own affair," An Qin said as she stood up.

Walking past Li Chen, An Qin sneakily turned back and gave him a look that seemed to carry something more.

The next moment, An Qin left the place.

Li Chen didn’t ask her to stay because he knew that even if he did, it would be pointless. If she didn’t want to talk, what could he do?

It wasn’t until An Qin had left that Li Chen finally sat down on the chair.

Outside, the Nether Army kept a tight guard.

Li Chen leaned back in the chair, supporting his chin with one hand, his eyes indescribably heavy.

He really didn’t want to lose Wang Qianqian, but was there truly no chance this time?

Suddenly, Li Chen thought of the four house servants An Qin had mentioned just before.

"Could it really be the four grandfathers? But, they have already vanished from the Relic. Even if I wanted to find them, I wouldn’t be able to find anyone," a trace of helplessness showed in Li Chen’s eyes.

After pondering for a while, Li Chen stood up and returned to the villa, somewhat lonely.

Seeing Li Chen come in, Wang Qianqian looked very happy. What she was most worried about now was that Li Chen would suddenly disappear.

Wang Qianqian was very intelligent. From Li Chen’s series of actions, Wang Qianqian had also sensed something. However, she never spoke of it, not wanting to make Li Chen worry more.

All she could do was to keep Li Chen from worrying, and that was all.

"What’s wrong?" Seeing Li Chen looking somewhat somber, Wang Qianqian couldn’t help but ask.

Li Chen shook his head, not saying a word.

"Was it perhaps teasing some beauty, then getting hit?" Wang Qianqian teased Li Chen with laughter.

Hearing Wang Qianqian’s words, Li Chen was startled, and in his daze, he caught on and couldn’t help but smile bitterly at Wang Qianqian.

He really was a bastard. Qianqian was like this, and he still needed her to console him.

Approaching Wang Qianqian, Li Chen wore a smile on his face, "Yeah, I tried to flirt with a beauty, but she completely ignored me. Ah, Qianqian, won’t you comfort me?"

"How do you want me to comfort you?" Seeing Li Chen coming closer, Wang Qianqian’s face turned red as she spoke.

"However you want to comfort me!" Li Chen brought his face even closer.

Wang Qianqian’s face showed a thoughtful expression, then she leaned forward and gently kissed Li Chen on the face.

"Is that okay?"

Li Chen nodded, satisfied, "Yes, that’s perfect!"

At that moment, Wang Qianqian stood up suddenly, "It’s so hot outside, you must be thirsty too. I’ll go get you a glass of water."

Li Chen nodded, watching Wang Qianqian act like this made him feel more heartache and more reluctant to part with her.

"Why, why does it have to be her!" Li Chen felt as if a giant hand was gripping his organs, squeezing them into a knot, and a pain that was hard to describe spread throughout his body.

"Here! Drink some water."

Wang Qianqian cheerfully handed Li Chen the water, her face showing no signs of anything amiss, as if she was completely unaware.

Li Chen smiled and reached out to take the water.

"Smash!"

The glass suddenly shattered.

Fragments scattered all over the floor, and water spilled everywhere.

Seeing this, both were stunned.

"I’m so sorry!" Wang Qianqian immediately said.

"It’s okay." Li Chen’s eyes carried a hint of sadness. The stronger Wang Qianqian became, it also meant that her time might really not be much.
