Chapter 97: You All Are Finally Here!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Inside the surveillance room on the fifth floor of the Millennium Hotel, three security guards could be seen lying on the ground.
Jiang Wenlin was seated inside with his legs crossed. He was holding a box carefully in his hands. Inside the box was a pill that exuded a strong medicinal fragrance.
“I didn’t expect to receive an unexpected surprise today. The medicinal fragrance of this pill is extremely pure. It’s light years apart from the pills in our Jiang family’s collection. This is somewhat interesting…”
The old man beside Jiang Wenlin also said, “Young master, according to the pill patterns, this pill should have been refined within the past ten days.” “Oh? I don’t know where the Jin family got this thing from, but seeing as the old fox from the Jin family was actually willing to take out such a good medicinal pill for the auction, could it be that the Jin family has already secured a channel that supplies such pills?” Jiang Wenlin muttered.
The old man replied, “The possibility of that being the case is very high. Although Jin Lengyan is a woman, she is much more capable than the rest of the Jin family in terms of strength and strategy. There is a reason why the Jin family pushed her into the eye of the storm. If the Jin family has really gotten their hands on such a channel, they’ll definitely surpass the Jiang family by a large margin soon.”
Jiang Wenlin’s eyes turned cold. He turned to look at the man who was checking the surveillance cameras and asked, “Have you found anything about the matter I asked you to investigate?”
The man nodded and handed a tablet over to Jiang Wenlin.
Three scenes were displayed on the tablet.
The first was when Ye Chen first visited Jin Lengyan’s room.
The second was when he looked for Jin Lengyan again during the auction.
The final scene was whe Ye Chen left her room after concluding the auction.
The man continued, “Young master, according to the hotel’s surveillance camera footage, this guy should be the one who stole our hundred-herb cauldron. Even this pill might have come from him.”
Jiang Wenlin immediately stood up; his eyes were filled with killing intent and passion. “What? This person was behind it all? Are you certain?”
The man hesitated for a moment before saying, “The hundred-herb cauldron and the pill are both important matters for the Jin family. Jin Lengyan would most likely deal with such matters personally. I’ve checked the surveillance footage. Jin Lengyan only met this man today, so he is most like our target.” Jiang Wenlin looked at Ye Chen’s figure on the screen and sneered. “You even dare to touch my Jiang family’s things. You really don’t know how the word ‘death’ is spelled!”
“Let’s go! I want to meet this kid and see where his confidence comes from.”
After Jiang Wenlin left the surveillance room, Jin Lengyan reached the surveillance room. She wanted to delete the surveillance footage.
In the past, this matter had always been left to the servants but, this time, she decided to take on the task herself.
However, when she saw the security guards lying on the ground in the surveillance room, her expression changed.
She had obviously been too late!
Moreover, the ones who had barged into the surveillance room were definitely from the Jiang family!
Ye Chen was in danger!
Although Ye Chen had rejected her father’s invitation to dinner, the Jin family had still received a huge boon thanks to his medicinal pills. She could not just leave him in the lurch like this.
“Jin Qian!”
“Miss, I’m here,” a middle-aged man responded.
“Follow Ye Chen and the others. If his life is in danger, save him. It’s also our way of returning the favor that we owe him!”
“Yes, miss!”
Ye Chen and Xia Ruoxue walked out of the entrance of the Millenium Hotel together. Zhu Zixuan followed behind them silently, feeling uneasy.
Ye Chen, who was walking in front, suddenly remembered something. He turned back to look at Zhu Zixuan and asked, “How are you going back?”
“Mr. Ye, I’ll be taking a taxi…”
Ye Chen was stunned. Given the Zhu family’s background, Zhu Zixuan should have a chauffeur waiting for her every time she went out. How did she end up having to take a taxi now?
Could it be that something major had really happened to the Zhu family?
When he first came to River City, Zhu Rende had helped him out a lot. If the Zhu family was in trouble, he would not sit by and do nothing.
“Did something happen at home?” Ye Chen asked.
“Mr. Ye, no… no…” Zhu Zixuan stuttered as she shook her head.
Ye Chen sighed helplessly and extended his hand. “Give me your phone.”
Zhu Zixuan did as she was told.
Ye Chen keyed in his number and returned the phone to Zhu Zixuan.
“If something really happens, just give me a call. I’ll help if I can. That’s all. I’ll be leaving first.”
Zhu Zixuan looked at Ye Chen and Xia Ruoxue’s departing figures and her eyes turned red. Not long after, her phone rang. When she saw the caller ID, her face turned extremely pale.
What she feared had indeed come.
“Ye Chen, why does that little girl keep calling you Mr. Ye? It’s so formal and unpleasant to hear!” Xia Ruoxue smiled.
“She’s just randomly calling me that. Thanks to her, I feel like an old man.”
Ye Chen stood at the intersection and called for a taxi. Just as he was about to get in with Xia Ruoxue, a cold glint flashed across his eyes and he quickly said to the driver, “Mister, we won’t be going after all. You can leave.”
The driver suddenly felt like he had been played. If this kid did not want to go somewhere, why the hell did he call a taxi?
He wanted to curse but, when he saw Ye Chen’s eyes, he obediently closed his mouth. He stepped on the gas and drove away.
Xia Ruoxue’s beautiful eyes flickered in confusion, “Ye Chen, didn’t you say that we were going back? Why didn’t you get in?”
Ye Chen’s killing intent disappeared. He looked around and pulled Xia Ruoxue into a cafe.
“I suddenly feel like drinking coffee. Can you order a cup of coffee for me while I go somewhere?” Ye Chen said.
“I have to sit here and wait? Where are you going?”
Xia Ruoxue’s expression was strange. For some reason, she felt that Ye Chen was behaving strangely right now.
“I’m going to the toilet,” Ye Chen said with a smile.
Xia Ruoxue was dumbfounded, and her facial expression darkened.
How many times had Ye Chen gone to the toilet today? He had not even drunk that much water!
“Alright, I’ll get you some coffee first. Come back quickly,” Xia Ruoxue said softly.
However, by the time she finished her sentence, Ye Chen had already left in a hurry.
“Hey, hey, hey, Ye Chen…! Isn’t there a toilet in the cafe? Why did you go outside?”
The door closed and Ye Chen disappeared from her sight.
After leaving the cafe, Ye Chen’s smile disappeared completely.
It was replaced by cold killing intent.
His indifferent gaze scanned the crowd outside.
“These guys probably don’t know how I operate. I’ll eliminate any threat in the cradle.”
Ye Chen lit a cigarette and headed northwest. There were not many people there and, not far away, there was an alley with a few trash cans.
This was obviously the street’s garbage disposal station.
Somewhere not far away…
“Young master, that kid seems to have noticed us?” said the old man.
“We’ve been discovered? Hmph! So what?” Jiang Wenlin replied coldly.
“Young master, what about the girl in the cafe?”
“This girl is pretty, but we’ll talk about her after we’re done dealing with that kid and have obtained the hundred-herb cauldron and the secret behind that pill.”
Jiang Wenlin headed out. and the others quickly followed.
Not long after, the three of them arrived at the alley. A young man was leaning against the wall, putting out the cigarette in his hand. Then, with a flick of his finger, the cigarette butt flew in an arc and grazed Jiang Wenlin’s cheek!
“I’ve been waiting for you guys for a minute and five seconds. You all are finally here..”
