Ling Chen pointed to his own nose and said, "The one your sister likes is ."
Uh... Nanrong Hao turned his head away, struggling to hold back his laughter.
"What’s wrong? Am I not speaking the truth?" Ling Chen glared at Nanrong Hao.
"No no no." Nanrong Hao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Chen, you’re not wrong, my sister does like you, but that’s a different story. You can’t just wrap yourself up as a gift for her, unless..." At this point, Nanrong Hao’s face revealed a sly smile.
"Unless what?" Ling Chen pressed on.
Nanrong Hao leaned in close to Ling Chen’s ear and whispered, "Unless you deliver yourself to her bed. My sister would definitely be satisfied."
Hearing this, Ling Chen ’smack’, slapped Nanrong Hao on the head, reprimanding him irritably, "Is my sister that kind of person?"
Nanrong Hao rubbed his head, muttering, "I don’t know about my sister, but you definitely are that kind of person."
Ling Chen glared at Nanrong Hao. It was pointless to ask him; not wanting to waste his breath, he simply got up and left the villa.
Nanrong Wanqing’s birthday, this was a big deal, and with it being a birthday banquet, there would definitely be many attendees. Being her boyfriend, if he didn’t prepare a stunning gift, it wouldn’t only let down Nanrong Wanqing, but it would also reflect poorly on himself.
Sigh! No choice, all n are creatures that care about face.
The next day.
As expected by Ling Chen, the outside of Wealthy Manor was filled with reporters who had co to interview. Fortunately, Ling Chen had prepared early and had Nanrong Hao arrange manpower in advance to block all those reporters outside Wealthy Manor.
However, even so, news about Nanrong Wanqing and her new boyfriend still flooded all major newspapers and news channels, even entertainnt news covered it.
The most attention-grabbing was still Ling Chen’s identity.
A re security guard actually managing to win Nanrong Wanqing’s favor amazed countless people, even the tale of a sparrow turning into a phoenix was applied to Ling Chen.
And at this mont, the main character Ling Chen, wearing a face mask, was strolling alone in the mall, selecting a gift for Nanrong Wanqing.
Rings, necklaces, bracelets, from tens of thousands to several hundred thousand, Ling Chen looked over each one, but none caught his fancy. In his view, it was not about how expensive the gift was, but its significance.
With Nanrong Wanqing’s wealth, even the most expensive gifts would be considered cliché, and Ling Chen naturally didn’t want to fall into that trap.
In the blink of an eye, the morning passed.
After wandering around for most of the day, Ling Chen found a seat in a fast-food restaurant across from the mall, ready to fill his stomach and continue shopping in the afternoon.
While eating, Ling Chen suddenly felt a whiff of fragrance hit him. He looked up to see across his seat, a blonde girl wearing tight leather pants, draped in a coat, sexy and charming, her figure graceful, walking on high heels towards him, then sat down beside him.
Ling Chen took a brief mont of surprise, then smiled, holding up his cola cup and said, "Do you want sothing to eat? My treat."
The blonde woman brushed her bangs from her shoulder and spoke indifferently, "I really admire you, still having the appetite to eat right now."
"As eating is crucial for survival, as long as the sky hasn’t fallen, one needs to eat; we can’t starve ourselves. Tell , what brings you to ?"
"I think you should be clear on why I’m seeking you out." Kaelina said, "Initially, I made an agreent with Ghost to cooperate and take on the God Organization together. However, a few days ago, I received a notice saying our cooperation is over, with no reason provided, just a unilateral termination of the agreent. Since you’re our go-between, of course I have to co to you for an explanation."
"This matter is not Ghost’s fault. Recently, Ghost had an unforeseen disaster and suffered a heavy blow. As far as I know, Ghost has received orders to disband. From now on, Ghost no longer exists in this world, and their ceasing of cooperation was also out of necessity."
"Why?" Kaelina furrowed her brows.
"Apart from the God Organization, do you think there could be any other reason? The God Organization had long infiltrated the inner workings of Ghost, but we had always been kept in the dark until just recently." With that said, Ling Chen pivoted the conversation and asked, "When you first proposed the cooperation, you told that before Blood Wolf was killed, he gave you so docunts containing secrets about the God Organization. That docunt was your only chip for cooperating with us. Now that Ghost has disbanded, what are you planning to do with that docunt?"
Kaelina picked up a french fry, her bright red lips parting slightly to reveal her pearly white teeth, and the glint in her beautiful eyes betrayed the hesitation within her.
After a mont, Kaelina glanced at the crowded clientele of the fast-food restaurant, stood up, and said, "et at the library downtown in half an hour."
"Alright, I’ll be there on ti."
Having finished eating, Ling Chen glanced at the ti and saw it was almost ti, so he set out for the library.
Upon reaching the library’s entrance, Ling Chen was about to enter when an ambulance suddenly drove up from the roadside. Subsequently, several dical staff rushed towards the library with a stretcher at a brisk pace.
Seeing the ambulance, Ling Chen couldn’t help but feel an ominous premonition in his heart and hurriedly followed the dical team inside.
On the third floor of the library, he saw a crowd gathered at the entrance, all talking amongst themselves, with no one daring to enter.
Without thinking too much, Ling Chen swiftly pushed through the crowd and entered the library. In a short while, between two rows of bookshelves, he found Kaelina.
Seeing the blood scattered on the ground and Kaelina lying in a pool of blood, Ling Chen’s expression changed. He cursed silently to himself, rushed over in a panic, and cradled Kaelina in his arms to check her wounds.
However, seeing Kaelina’s abdon bleeding profusely, Ling Chen’s face instantly contorted with grimness.
Whoever was behind this had very precise moves, clean and to the point, striking a vital area at once. Moreover, the assailant intentionally didn’t deliver a fatal blow right away, instead letting Kaelina slowly endure the tornting pain until death. It has to be said, the perpetrator was incredibly ruthless.
During his contemplation, Ling Chen glanced around, his brow furrowing instantly.
Kaelina was attacked in this place, with no signs of struggle nearby, indicating the assailant’s action was very swift, leaving Kaelina with no chance to defend herself. To easily wound Blood Spider, ranked third on the assassin list, the perpetrator must be far from ordinary.
"Kaelina, wake up!" Ling Chen gently patted Kaelina’s cheek, hoping to rouse her.
But Kaelina, having lost too much blood, had already sunk into a comatose state, her face pale, and she could die at any mont.
At this point, the dical team had swiftly arrived on-scene with a stretcher.
"Sir, please move aside."
Ling Chen glanced at them and said sternly, "There’s no ti for the hospital, she needs imdiate on-site treatnt."
