Chapter 266: Chapter 286: Lai Yiliang, You’re Doing So Well? _1

This swing was very fierce, with no restraint at all.

An ordinary person would instinctively stretch out their arm to block, which would result in the arm being directly broken; or rather, this swing was aimed at breaking Lin Chen’s arm.

If it wasn’t blocked, it would have resulted in a bloody head injury, and a hospital visit would be required.

Lin Chen casually reached out and directly grabbed the steel pipe that was swung down.

As soon as the steel pipe fell into Lin Chen’s hand, it became completely still. The leading man’s face changed, and he tried to drag it away, but the steel pipe seemed to be welded in place and did not move an inch.

With a casual tug from Lin Chen, the man could no longer hold onto the steel pipe and had to let go. The steel pipe then fell directly into Lin Chen’s hand.

Lin Chen swung it effortlessly, sweeping it past the forehead of a man who was rushing towards him. The man was taken by surprise and jumped back in fright. He lost his balance and fell on his buttocks, instantly losing his ferocious momentum.

The leading man stared at Lin Chen, who was blocking his path like a door god: "Brother, you don’t seem to be from around here?"

Lin Chen chuckled, and with a casual flick, he sent the steel pipe flying. It embedded itself into a nearby brick wall with a cracking sound, splattering bricks and leaving a hole in the wall.

"Let’s just negotiate peacefully. We shouldn’t use violence. Can the elderly men and women’s bodies withstand your way of doing things?"

The leading man glanced at the steel pipe embedded halfway into the wall, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and knew that if they were to fight, their group wouldn’t stand a chance against this man. He softened his tone and said, "Brother, we’re just doing someone’s bidding for money. How do you want to handle this? Just say a word."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "I have nothing to say. You guys go ahead and negotiate. Just don’t get violent, I don’t want to have to visit my friends in the hospital."

The leading man breathed a small sigh of relief. Fortunately, the only condition was not to hurt people.

"Alright, I’ll talk to the person in charge."

The leading man walked to the side and made a phone call. Meanwhile, the bustling crowd quieted down.

Wang Zimin came to Lin Chen and gratefully said, "Thank you, Brother Chen. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know how many of us would have ended up in the hospital..."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "They never intended to negotiate with you in the first place. Everything today was set up for this very purpose: sending the most active protesters to the hospital, and scaring the rest into signing."

Wang Zimin angrily said, "These people are inhuman! They’re ruthless! Brother Chen, what should we do now?"

Lin Chen laughed, "Wait. If they can’t settle it themselves, they’ll either send someone tougher or loosen their negotiation terms. If they resort to violence, I can shield you today. If it comes to negotiation, you’ll have to handle it yourselves. I won’t be involved, and don’t ask my opinion."

As for the compensation, too many interests were involved. Considering his friendship with Wang Zimin, Lin Chen was willing to protect them from violence, but he would not help with anything else.

"Thank you, Brother Chen!"

Wang Zimin went back to negotiate, and Lin Chen still sat on the side, smoking calmly.

A black Mercedes-Benz emerged from the night, and two people got out: a steady middle-aged man and a young man wearing glasses, holding a briefcase.

Lin Chen looked at the two and was momentarily stunned.

Lai Yiliang.

The young man holding the briefcase was actually the assistant of the boss of Pingjiang Black Bamboo Company, who later, due to Lin Chen’s words, broke the leg of the young master of the Lei Family and was forced to flee to Linhai - Lai Yiliang!

He’s quite capable.

After changing location, it seemed like he was still doing pretty well for himself.

The leading man just now went to greet the two, talked with them for a while, and pointed at Lin Chen who was sitting in the intertwining shadows of light and darkness.

Lai Yiliang and the man next to him exchanged a few words, then walked over.

Lai Yiliang stopped three meters in front of Lin Chen and said with a clear voice, "Brother, I am Lai Yiliang, the Chairman’s Assistant of High-energy Real Estate. If you have any demands, you can mention them to me."

Chairman’s Assistant?

This kid is not bad.

Lin Chen couldn’t help but laugh inwardly, but casually replied, "I just couldn’t stand to see them beating people, that’s all. I have no demands, and this matter has nothing to do with me. You can go ahead and negotiate with them."

It was getting dark, and Lai Yiliang couldn’t see Lin Chen’s face clearly. His voice sounded somewhat familiar, but he didn’t give it much thought. He nodded and said, "Alright, I’ll go talk to them."

Lai Yiliang went to the back to talk to Wang Zimin and the other representatives, while the man who came with him approached Lin Chen.

"Friend, where are you from?"

Lin Chen laughed, "I’m not part of any group. Wang Zimin is my colleague. I only stepped in because I saw your people beating others. I don’t care about your negotiations, just don’t hit people."

The middle-aged man said solemnly, "You’re a cultivator. You should have heard of the Eight Great Cultivation Families in Linhai, also known as the Eight Great Families to ordinary people, right?"

Lin Chen nodded, "I’ve heard of them. What’s the connection between this matter and the Eight Great Families?"

The middle-aged man coldly said, "High-energy Real Estate is related to the Chu Family. Chairman Chu Songhui is one of the core figures of the Chu Family. I advise you not to interfere."

Lin Chen’s eyes lit up, and he suddenly became interested, "The Chu Family?"
