Chapter 271: Chapter 291: The Nest Is Emptied Out, They Really Think Highly of Me_1

After work, Lin Chen had dinner at a street food stall with two or three security guards, as usual, and then strolled around to find a taxi.

Before he had walked far, the shrill sound of an argument from a nearby alleyway caught Lin Chen’s attention.

There was a man and woman at the entrance of the alley, arguing intensely.

The man yelled angrily, "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking, flirting with that pretty boy all day long, as if I’m dead!"

The woman, quite pretty, screamed back, "How am I flirting? I can’t even have a normal conversation with someone anymore? Why don’t you just chain me up with an iron chain instead!"

The man growled, "You’re still pretending? Where were you yesterday?"

The woman replied, "I went shopping with a friend, didn’t I tell you? I’m a person too, and I have my own freedom..."

"Freedom my ass!"

The man cursed and slapped the woman, knocking her to the ground. Still angry, he kicked her.

"Wang Mingda, you bastard! Always suspicious, if I really had someone, I would’ve had them by now! No need to wait for now! I want to divorce you!"

The woman screamed, followed by painful cries from the beating.

Lin Chen couldn’t bear to watch anymore and stepped in, shouting, "Stop!"

The man stopped and glared at Lin Chen, "I’m disciplining my own wife, what’s it got to do with you? Get lost! Or I’ll beat you too!"

Lin Chen coldly said, "If you can get through this, then do so. If not, get a divorce. What kind of a man are you, using your strength to hit a woman?"

"A dog meddling in a rat’s business!"

The man cursed and lunged at Lin Chen, trying to grab his collar.

Lin Chen reached out, grabbed the man’s arm, and twisted it gently.

"Ow, ow, ow!"

The man appeared strong, but in front of Lin Chen, he was as weak as a frail little chick, with no strength to struggle.

Lin Chen gave him a light shove, and the man stumbled back, landing on his butt.

Lin Chen didn’t plan to do anything more to him, after all, it was a domestic matter between husband and wife. If Lin Chen really gave the man a thorough beating, the first to accuse and blame Lin Chen might be the beaten woman.

The man looked fearfully at Lin Chen, then pointed at the woman, "This isn’t over!"

After saying that, the man stormed off, not even bothering about the woman sitting on the ground.

Lin Chen asked, "Are you alright?"

The woman gratefully said, "Thank you, sir. If it weren’t for you, I don’t know how badly I would have been beaten today..."

The woman tried to tidy her disheveled hair, attempted to stand up, but suddenly cried out in pain, sitting down again with a pained expression on her face.

"My leg hurts so much, I can’t use any strength..."

Lin Chen took out his mobile phone, turned on the flashlight, and examined the woman’s leg. There was a large bruise on it. Lin Chen checked the leg, no broken bones, but she wouldn’t be able to put any weight on it for the time being.

"Your bones are fine, do you need me to call the police or an ambulance for you?"

The woman hesitated and declined, "Thank you, but no need. As long as my bones are okay, I’ll just go home and rest."

She looked left and right, then asked with difficulty, "Sir, can you help me and walk me part of the way? My home is just inside, two or three hundred meters away. I’ll give you money, one hundred yuan, is that okay?"

Lin Chen shook his head, "No money needed, let’s go."

Lin Chen supported her arm, and the woman stood up using Lin Chen’s strength. She limped forward, gritting her teeth and wincing in pain, her leg genuinely hurt.

The dim streetlight didn’t provide much illumination, and the road was rather dark. Lin Chen maintained his distance from the woman and slowly made his way forward.

Lin Chen looked around, his eyes a bit more vigilant.

Although there were residential buildings not far from the alley, this stretch of road was quite empty and devoid of pedestrians, appearing dark and dense.

Lin Chen glanced at the woman beside him; she was gritting her teeth and limping along, not appearing to be faking.

Lin Chen took out his phone and sent a message to Han Wei with one hand while turning on his location sharing.

Soon, he received a message from Han Wei, put his phone away, and continued walking.

As she had said, the woman’s home was about four hundred meters inside the alley. Lin Chen helped her into the building and eventually ushered her through her front door.

"Thank you, sir. You’re such a nice person. Here’s some money, you should take it."

Lin Chen declined the money she tried to hand him, walked out of the building, and stood at the entrance. Instead of leaving immediately, he took out his mobile phone, sent a message, and casually lit a cigarette.

He didn’t leave!

After smoking half a cigarette, an elderly man with white hair and beard who looked at least eighty or ninety years old emerged from the hallway behind him. His skin was taut and his face rosy, giving off an aura of an immortal

simultaneously, from the darkness on both sides of the entrance, two other elderly men in their seventies emerged. The three men approached Lin Chen from three different directions.

Lin Chen took a puff from his cigarette, grinned, and said, "Three grandmasters. The Chu family really values me, this is an all-out effort..."
