Chapter 859: Chapter 831 Li Chen’s Arrangement
Seeing the expression on Li Chen’s face, Yang Xin hesitated for a moment but still decided to speak about the matter.
Li Chen drove the car, listening to Yang Xin’s narration, it was then he understood why Yang Xin was so out of sorts.
Before this, he was also quite cautious while driving. Although his attention was somewhat distracted by chatting with Lin Xiaoxiao, it was not to the extent that he would hit someone directly. Just now, it was also partly because Yang Xin herself had rushed over.
Recently, Yang Xin indeed encountered some problems, and they were not small ones.
Her mother’s living area was an old city district, and recently, that old district was undergoing development.
The developer demanded they move, but the compensation offered was so low that it was unacceptable. If they were to move, the compensation would not be nearly enough for them to find a new place to live, and thus the situation became deadlocked.
But that wasn’t the worst of it; the worst part was, upon discovering that they refused to move, the developer started using all sorts of methods to coerce them.
Many people had already been forced to relocate due to not being able to withstand the round-the-clock harassment, and recently Yang Xin and her mother also suffered harassment from people sent by the developer, including threats.
There were even people knocking on doors at night to harass them. Yang Xin, who was in no small amount of distress, recently stayed with her mother all the time, to the extent that she didn’t even go to school.
"So that’s what happened..." Upon hearing about Yang Xin’s plight, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn’t help but express sympathy and said with some remorse, "I’m sorry, Sister Yang, my attitude was not good before..."
"It’s okay," Yang Xin shook her head, "I didn’t take it to heart."
Meanwhile, Li Chen, who was driving, showed a thoughtful expression.
"This matter, actually, is not very troublesome. If you trust me, just leave it to me," suddenly, Li Chen turned his head and said to Yang Xin.
"Ah, leave it to you..." Upon hearing Li Chen’s words, Yang Xin was somewhat stunned and said.
"What, you don’t trust me?" Li Chen asked with a smile.
"It’s not that, it’s just..."
Before Yang Xin could finish her sentence, Li Chen directly interrupted her: "Since you trust me, there’s no need for further words. I’ve got this matter covered."
"Okay." Hearing Li Chen’s words, Yang Xin nodded without arguing any further with Li Chen.
In her heart, she actually trusted Li Chen very much.
It’s just that she felt it was somewhat inappropriate to ask him to do something when their relationship was still unclear.
"Alright, you’re home," Li Chen turned his head and smiled at Yang Xin.
"Oh... Yeah!" Gazing at the familiar scenery outside the car, Yang Xin was once again startled, not expecting to have arrived so soon.
Suddenly remembering that she hadn’t seen Li Chen for a while, she felt somewhat reluctant but still waved goodbye to Li Chen and then turned to leave.
"Brother-in-law, aren’t you going to protect Sister Yang?" After waiting for Yang Xin to leave, Lin Xiaoxiao finally spoke up, "Sister Yang is being threatened by bad people now."
Hearing this, Li Chen couldn’t help but laugh: "Do I look like that kind of person?"
"Ah! Brother-in-law, you already have a plan?" Lin Xiaoxiao exclaimed with surprise.
Li Chen nodded: "I’ll make arrangements later. To resolve this matter is actually not difficult. Tonight, we’ll see if these people take the bait."
Li Chen glanced at the departing Yang Xin, pressed the accelerator, and the vehicle started again.
In the evening, Catherine arrived at the villa and was personally received by Lin Yi.
Although Lin Yi had some doubts about the relationship between Li Chen and Catherine, as the hostess, she still exhibited the appropriate demeanor and chatted with Catherine for a while.
"Alright, it’s time to talk about the matter at hand."
Li Chen walked into the yard, rubbing his shoulder. After a session of cultivation, he felt that his injury had recovered a bit more. He estimated that within two or three days, the injury he sustained at Mystic Star Sect would be completely healed.
Hearing Li Chen’s words, the two women also quieted down.
Regarding Lin Yi, there was nothing much for Li Chen to avoid anymore. Many things were already known to Lin Yi, and it was meaningless for him to continue concealing them.
Moreover, his world was too dangerous. If he didn’t let Lin Yi know more about it, he feared that problems could arise later on.
"How has the situation in Linchuan been recently?" Li Chen asked Catherine.
Upon hearing Li Chen’s question, Catherine actually took out a notebook filled with dense notes from her bosom.
Li Chen didn’t show much reaction to this, as he already knew that Catherine had the habit of planning with pen and paper.
On the other hand, Lin Yi was curious about this.
"The recent situation in Linchuan is relatively stable; no new Martial Artists have appeared. Of course, we cannot exclude the possibility that someone may have sneaked in," Catherine said, "The Martial Artists that initially appeared in Linchuan have been quite obedient and haven’t stirred up any trouble."
"It looks like the battle with Yu Zhe has frightened them," Li Chen couldn’t help but laugh.
"By the looks of the result, indeed it has," Catherine said.
"There hasn’t been any other activity?" Li Chen asked.
"Not at the moment," Catherine shook her head.
Li Chen stroked his chin: "It seems to be happening later than I anticipated."
Before his death, Yu Zhe had given Li Chen a piece of information; Yu Zhe also came from the Enchanted World and appeared to be from a family clan similar to the former Li Family.
At that time, Li Chen guessed that the Yu Family might seek revenge on him, but as of now, there seems to be no movement from the Yu Family’s side.
"Regardless, be cautious. Remember to notify me immediately if anything happens," Li Chen said.
"Understood!" Catherine nodded.
At this moment, Lin Yi suddenly spoke to Li Chen: "If you’re going to do something, remember to notify me immediately as well!"
"Alright, alright!" Li Chen said, somewhat embarrassed.
Catherine, seeing the usually invincible King of the Netherworld being so honest with an ordinary woman, couldn’t help but smile strangely.
Is this what the ancient Huaxian saying means by ’every Jack has his Jill’?
"By the way, where are the people you arranged?" At this point, Li Chen asked Catherine.
"Everything has been arranged. If there’s any activity, I will be notified immediately," Catherine nodded.
Just at that moment, a ’beep beep’ sound suddenly emanated from Catherine’s body.
This was the special communication device they used for contact.
Catherine lifted her wristwatch to look, a smile appeared on her face, and she turned to Li Chen: "It seems, my lord, that the fish you’ve been waiting for has taken the bait."
"The fish has taken the bait this quickly?" Li Chen smiled, stood up: "It seems, tomorrow we can have some fun."
Lin Yi: "Speak human language!"
Li Chen: "..."
