Although Shen Lin had heard so reasons, he still felt that sothing was not quite real, so he took this opportunity to ask.
"If it were just that the Su Family had offended, I might have been lenient and forgiven them for a while."
A chill suddenly flashed across Su Chen's face as he exclaid,
"But the fact that they dared to lay hands on soone close to is intolerable!"
"Luckily, my friend wasn't seriously injured, or else I would have definitely made the Su Family bleed a river yesterday!"
Shen Lin felt a jolt in his heart at the sight of the frosty chill on Su Chen's face!
He had heard that the incident was caused by that Su Can from the Su Family injuring a friend surnad Yun at a bar.
But he never believed that Su Chen would make such an earth-shattering move just for soone who followed him!
After all, it was too unwise, it simply wasn't worth it just for a so-called friend!
However, it was quite normal for Shen Lin to think this way since he always prioritized his own interests and naturally didn't believe in the concept of loyalty.
But unexpectedly, it was indeed for that reason!
"Mr. Su's noble loyalty towards his friends is truly admirable!"
Shen Lin complinted with a smile.
"Of course!"
Su Chen glanced aningfully at Shen Lin and said,
"If soone dares to harm those close to , I'll definitely make them pay a hundredfold, a thousandfold, making their lives worse than death!"
The reason Su Chen told Shen Lin so much was actually to warn him.
Because he knew Shen Lin was also a sly and cunning person. Although they appeared to be on good terms now, if conflicts arose in the future, it was inevitable that this guy might target those close to him.
And after saying all this today, he surely must weigh his options more closely if that day ever cos!
Listening to Su Chen's ruthless words, Shen Lin indeed retracted so of his thoughts and plans; he did not want to carelessly follow in Su Can's footsteps!
"By the way, did the Shen Family have any reaction to yesterday's incident?"
After taking a sip of red wine, Su Chen asked casually.
"I don't know about the rest, but I heard that grandfather did not sleep at all last night."
Shen Lin shook his head and said,
"Furthermore, Shen Shao has not stepped out of his study since the afternoon."
"It seems that not even the slightest activities of the Shen Family can escape the eyes of young master Shen!"
Su Chen comnted with an insinuation.
In his thoughts, it seed that yesterday's events had indeed had an effect, at least causing a reaction among the other Great Families.
"It's nothing but a few extra chess pieces I've placed; they're not worthy of high society."
Looking at Su Chen, Shen Lin smiled and said,
"Besides, my trivial tricks are far from comparable to Mr. Su's thunderous thods."
After chatting for a while longer and sharing a couple more drinks, they each drove their own cars and left...
....
After leaving First Grade Garden, Su Chen drove back ho, planning to cultivate since there was nothing pressing at the company.
But just when he was halfway there, he noticed a rcedes following him.
"Could it be that these Great Families can't wait any longer and are so eager to eliminate ?"
Su Chen pondered internally.
He had assud that even if the Great Families felt a significant threat and wanted to take action against him, they would need to carefully plan for a while before making a move!
But this was only the second day, which seed too fast!
But at this ti, being followed probably ant that the pursuers bore ill will. Thus, he turned at the upcoming intersection and headed straight for the suburbs.
Su Chen drove for a while, feeling increasingly uneasy because the rcedes following him didn't seem to care about concealing itself at all; it brazenly tailed him as if unconcerned about being discovered.
This was entirely different from what Su Chen had anticipated. He had assud that if the major families were to make a move, their preferred thod would definitely be assassination from the shadows!
Only in a situation with no other choice would they confront him openly, especially considering the strength he had demonstrated was quite remarkable.
Now, the car following him did not appear to fit that pattern, and he certainly didn't think the person tailing him at such a ti was simply terrible at surveillance!
However, Su Chen didn't give it too much thought and continued heading toward the suburbs; he would find out soon enough.
He drove straight to a deserted wilderness in the suburbs, where he parked the car, got out, and leaned against the vehicle, lighting a cigarette and starting to smoke.
The rcedes that had been following him also ca straight over and stopped about a dozen ters away from him.
Two young people, a man, and a woman, got out of the car.
The man looked to be close to thirty, with handso features, dressed in casual attire, and an extrely arrogant deanor, as if he looked down on everything.
The woman, however, had an exquisitely delicate face, as if finely carved by the heavens; her tall and graceful figure revealed her curved outlines in full.
Although these two concealed their presence, they gave Su Chen a very dangerous feeling!
"Su Chen, it really is you!"
The woman, upon seeing Su Chen, suddenly exclaid with surprise, her beautiful eyes shining with color!
When she had first heard this na, she thought it might be soone with the sa na, but now she couldn't believe it was actually him!
"Why is it you?"
Su Chen was equally astonished, not expecting one of the two people tailing him to be soone he recognized.
This woman was the sa one he had encountered in the bar previously, and Su Chen rembered her na was Yan Xi.
"Yan Xi, you know him?"
The man, hearing their conversation, asked in surprise.
"Yes!"
Yan Xi chirped, her face full of excited surprise.
"Yan Xi, don't forget the mission we are on!"
The man, not pleased with Yan Xi's deanor, reminded her sternly.
Upon hearing this, Yan Xi curbed her excitent.
The man then turned to Su Chen, commanding,
"Since you know Yan Xi, we won't make things difficult for you today. Just co with us quietly."
"Where to?" Su Chen asked casually.
"You'll know when you get there!"
The man replied indifferently, his tone oozing arrogance and dominance, and not without a hint of hostility.
"What for?" Su Chen asked again.
He posed the questions tentatively as he had already determined that these two were definitely not from any of the Five Great Families.
"Punishnt, of course!"
The man said coldly to Su Chen,
"You've been causing trouble in Yandu for so long, and we've been patient enough! We sent a ssage for you to stop all actions against the Five Great Families, yet you ignored it completely!"
"Therefore, we have no choice but to take action and te out so punishnt!"
Su Chen had already suspected they were from the mysterious organization behind the Five Great Families, and their words now confird it!
A wave of elation surged within him; one way or another, he had finally managed to flush out sothing from behind the Five Great Families!
