Chapter 338: Chapter 358: Don’t Ask About the Relationship, Just Friends When Asked _1

The little girl screamed as she fell from the air, and at the same time, a young figure appeared by the railing like a phantom, moving at an extremely fast speed.

However, no matter how fast this figure was, it would not be faster than the falling little girl.

Lin Chen stepped on the ground, rushed out, then stepped on the railing next to him, his body soaring into the sky, just like when he saved Ye Wen that night from falling down the building.

Unlike that night, Lin Chen is now a Great Grandmaster, with stronger strength, and the falling height of the little girl is only about four floors, which is about twelve meters.

Lin Chen soared into the sky, spread his arms gracefully in midair, and embraced the little girl with one arm.

Lin Chen’s movements were gentle, he held the little girl tightly, reducing her downward momentum, securing her body, before he slightly bent his waist, and allowed his body to fall down, landing steadily on the grass below.

Lin Chen looked at the little girl in his arms, breathed a sigh of relief, and just about to turn around, and saw a figure flicker at the corner of his eye. A figure appeared in front of Lin Chen in an instant.

So fast!

Lin Chen’s pupils shrank, looked up, and saw a woman in her late twenties, very beautiful, her eyes fell on the child in Lin Chen’s arms, with lingering fear in her eyes.

"Mom..."

The little girl seemed to be frightened by the scene just now, and when she saw the woman, she stretched out her arms, crying for a hug.

Lin Chen handed the little girl to the woman, who took her and gently patted her back to comfort her, quickly checked to ensure she wasn’t injured before breathing a sigh of relief.

The young woman’s gaze fell on Lin Chen, gratitude in her eyes: "Sir, thank you for saving Ran Ran."

Lin Chen smiled, "No need to thank me, I just happened to pass by... Children this age are very active and have no sense of danger, it’s best not to leave them unattended."

The young woman nodded, "There are railings on all four sides of the platform, I just went to get some water, and didn’t expect her to slip through the middle... Are you here for the meeting, sir?"

Lin Chen nodded, "Yes, to gain some knowledge."

The young woman asked, "What’s your name, sir? Which sect are you from?"

"Lin Chen."

Lin Chen replied honestly, "No sect, no school, my master is Xue Kuangren."

The young woman nodded, "Mr. Lin, please come in for a cup of tea."

Lin Chen glanced at the teary-eyed little girl and smiled as he declined, "No need for tea, you stay with her. She must have been scared just now; I’ll leave first!"

Lin Chen breezily took his leave, turned around, and left decisively.

The young woman looked at Lin Chen’s receding figure, gratitude, and appreciation in her eyes.

He didn’t even ask about her identity, nor did he take the opportunity to establish a connection, but simply walked away nonchalantly. This kind of temperament is quite rare.

Someone should look into him. They can’t just accept his help without any reciprocation.

Lin Chen didn’t think too much about it; he saved a pretty little girl and was in a good mood. After strolling around, he returned to the hotel.

Just about to go upstairs, Lin Chen suddenly heard someone call out his name, "Lin Chen!"

Lin Chen turned his head and saw Zuo Lin, whom he had met before, who was Zuo Yingying’s brother. Standing next to Zuo Lin was a serious-looking middle-aged man and a white-haired old man, who seemed to be from the Zuo family as well.

Lin Chen turned around and smiled, "Mr. Zuo, hello."

Zuo Lin’s expression was somewhat surprised, "Are you also here for the meeting?"

Lin Chen naturally wouldn’t say that his main purpose was to find Yue Yu Sect’s Gao Zhengqiu, and laughed, "Just idle, came for a walk, have you just arrived?"

Zuo Lin nodded, then introduced, "This is my father, and this is my great grandparent from the Zuo family..."

Lin Chen smiled, "Hello, Mr. Zuo, and hello, Old man."

Zuo Wenxuan and Zuo Lingquan both had strange expressions on their faces, since they both still remembered Zuo Yingying’s cold mockery.

If it weren’t for that episode, Zuo Wenxuan would definitely be acting condescending, and even take the opportunity to pressure Lin Chen. However, having been humiliated by Zuo Yingying, they no longer dared to act superior.

A genuine Great Grandmaster!

A twenty-seven-year-old Great Grandmaster!

Zuo Wenxuan smiled and took the initiative to extend his hand, "Mr. Lin, you saved my daughter the other day. I wanted my bodyguard to invite Mr. Lin back to express my gratitude, but I didn’t expect the bodyguard to misunderstand and cause a misunderstanding. I hope Mr. Lin doesn’t mind."

Lin Chen smiled and shook hands with Zuo Wenxuan, "Mr. Zuo, don’t worry. I am friends with Miss Zuo, so helping her is just what I should do."

Friends?

Zuo Wenxuan thought bitterly to himself. It seems that his daughter had seen it more clearly than him; Lin Chen really didn’t put the Zuo family in his eyes.

Calling him "Mr. Zuo" repeatedly, this distance-keeping address, everyone knows what it means.

My relationship with your daughter is our business. If she has any issues, I will help naturally, but apart from that, the Zuo family better not think too much about it.

As for what kind of relationship? Don’t ask, it’s just friends.

Slept together?

Can’t we be friends if we’ve slept together?

Zuo Wenxuan was a local tyrant after all, and his daughter was naturally his precious jewel. But now he felt like a mute eating bitter pills, with bitterness stuck in his throat.

Who let her be willing in the first place?

Just then, another group of people entered the hotel, and Lin Chen turned his head to look, the smile on his face instantly cooling.
