"Not going, watching TV is not as good as watching you. Hey! Ling, have you ever cooked for other won?" When asking this question, Tang Shiyun’s eyes showed a hint of anticipation.
Ling Chen thought for a mont, and truth be told, he had never cooked for a woman before. Back when he was at the Nanrong Family, he did cook two bowls of noodles for Nanrong Wanqing and Su Lin. However, that didn’t count as real cooking; only this ti did.
"It seems... you’re the first one." Ling Chen replied earnestly.
Upon hearing this, Tang Shiyun’s eyebrows almost turned into a crescent moon.
Not long after, a lunch was served on the table. There weren’t many dishes, three dishes and one soup, two at and one vegetable, but for two people, it was quite a feast.
After serving the rice, Tang Shiyun, slling the aroma of the al on the table, tasted each one, couldn’t help but give a thumbs up, praising: "Ling, your cooking is really good, even better than my family’s nanny, more than sufficient as a chef."
"Enough, stop flattering, hurry up and eat."
After the al was finished, Ling Chen tidied up the dishes and utensils and went away, leaving Tang Shiyun sitting in the living room, watching TV out of boredom.
"Oh... Oh my! Ling, Ling, co quickly!"
It was unknown what kind of shocking news Tang Shiyun saw, but she almost jumped up from the sofa.
Hearing Tang Shiyun’s excited shout, Ling Chen didn’t have ti to think more, quickly putting down the dishes and utensils in his hands and briskly walking to the living room.
"Girl, what’s wrong?"
"Ling, look at the news." Tang Shiyun pointed at the TV.
At this mont, the TV was broadcasting a piece of local news that interrupted the regular program. The fact that a news report suddenly interrupted the program indicated its significance.
"Dear viewers in front of the television, our station interrupts with a significant news report. Half an hour ago, a major traffic accident occurred on Taolin Road in East Sea City, where an oil truck was hit by other vehicles while turning, causing the oil truck to overturn, and the gasoline leakage affects a very wide area. Police and firefighters are currently controlling the scene. The number of casualties remains unclear for now. We advise all citizens to take note and avoid the area to prevent unnecessary trouble and cooperate with the police..."
The anchor hadn’t finished speaking when the TV screen suddenly flickered. A few seconds later, the news reports turned into another screen.
The screen was pitch black, nothing was visible, accompanied by the sound of electrical currents.
After a while, a blurry figure appeared in the darkness. Possibly due to special treatnt, the figure presented in several colors.
Ling Chen frowned slightly, the sudden screen brought a strong sense of unease.
While contemplating, a voice processed by a voice changer sounded from the TV: "Three... two... one... boom!"
As the voice fell, Ling Chen imdiately heard a loud noise erupt from outside, with even the ground slightly vibrating.
This... this is... Ling Chen’s expression changed, quickly rushing out of the room. Looking around, he saw a plu of smoke rising in the distance, very conspicuous.
Explosion!
If he guessed correctly, the direction of the smoke was Taolin Road. Considering the voice that reverberated from the television just now, Ling Chen’s heart could not help but sink. This was not an accident, but soone secretly controlling the situation, deliberately triggering the oil truck explosion.
However, what Ling Chen couldn’t understand was why the other party would do such a thing. A terrorist attack? Impossible, given Huaxia’s crackdown on terrorists, such events couldn’t happen dostically. While pondering, Ling Chen returned to the living room, staring at the blurry figure on the TV.
"This is the first ti." After saying that, the figure instantly disappeared, and the TV screen returned to normal.
The first ti... what does this an? Could there be a second ti?
"Ling, what was that just now?" Tang Shiyun asked worriedly.
"Nothing. Shiyun, let’s go, I’ll send you back first, I have sothing important later, I’ll co find you when I’m free."
"Alright." Although Tang Shiyun wasn’t very willing, she dared not defy Ling Chen’s words. Moreover, from Ling Chen’s tone, she could tell he wasn’t joking.
After sending Tang Shiyun ho, Ling Chen directly drove to the base. Such an event suddenly occurred in East Sea City, as the one in control of East Sea City, Ling Chen must find out who is causing trouble on his turf.
"Fatty."
Upon arriving at the control center, Ling Chen imdiately found Hu Fei to inquire about the latest situation.
"You’re just in ti." Hu Fei’s expression was not looking good, eyes fixed on the computer screen, his ten fingers flying swiftly over the keyboard.
Soon, a screen appeared on the computer.
"This is the surveillance footage from Taolin Road, look, this is the oil truck."
Ling Chen nodded, watching the footage of the oil truck on the screen, seeing police and firefighters surrounding the area to secure the scene and prevent sparks from exploding the oil truck.
"Fortunately, when the oil truck exploded, the police and firefighters hadn’t entered the scene yet, only affected by the air blast without life-threatening danger. However, this incident is very serious, given the television circumstances, it clearly seems deliberate."
Ling Chen asked, "Can we find any clues from the TV footage?"
"No, I’ve had the technicians process it, no useful clues found. The opponent dare to do this, surely thoroughly prepared, won’t let us easily find anything." Speaking of which, Hu Fei’s expression showed concern: "My current biggest worry is the second explosion, judging from that guy’s ssages, he won’t easily give up."
"I think so too. By the way, any news from the police?"
"Not yet, even with our resources, no intelligence was gained, let alone them."
"Anyway, we must quickly find the mastermind behind this." Ling Chen instructed.
Daring to cause chaos on his turf, he definitely won’t let it slide.
Just as Ling Chen was discussing counterasures with Hu Fei, suddenly a phone ringing interrupted.
Pulling out his phone and seeing the unfamiliar caller number, Ling Chen directly answered, saying hello, and asked, "Who is this?"
"Hello, Mr. Ling." Hearing the voice from the other end of the call, Ling Chen raised his eyebrows, saying solemnly, "It’s you?"
"Seems like Mr. Ling has already guessed who I am."
"Was the explosion incident orchestrated by you?" Ling Chen asked. The voice from the other end was very distinctive, just like the voice on television earlier, both processed by special ans, making it easy for Ling Chen to recognize.
anwhile, Hu Fei beside him had already instructed his team to track the phone signal.
"Mr. Ling, that was just an appetizer, there’s a more lavish feast to co, but I need a bit of ti to prepare."
Hearing this, Ling Chen’s heart sank, asking, "What exactly do you want?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to call and inform you that our ga has just begun."
"Sorry, I’m not interested in participating in your ga."
"That’s not possible. Mr. Ling, please rember, the one controlling this ga is , not you. So, whether you want to participate or not, you must. Today’s explosion was rely a prelude, it didn’t cause casualties, but next ti I can’t guarantee that."
