The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 287 You think you're a grandmaster?

Lin Chen knew that the Chu family was involved in real estate, but he didn't expect that just two days ago he had met Chu Jiayi and made a small profit off the Chu family, and today he would run into the Chu family again.

Linhai City is so big, how could we keep bumping into each other like this? It really is a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road.

Since the Chu family was involved, Lin Chen's interest immediately grew.

He wouldn't mind provoking the Chu family a little more.

Recently, things have been peaceful in the Chu family, and no one has come to cause trouble for him. This makes Lin Chen feel uneasy, as if there are always treacherous people trying to harm him.

"I didn't intend to interfere. I said, you should negotiate properly and not resort to violence. This matter is none of my business. Even the Chu family should be reasonable. They have lived here for generations. If you want to take their house, you should at least provide sufficient compensation. Isn't there an official guideline? Just follow that, right?"

The middle-aged man was slightly surprised. He hadn't expected that after mentioning the Chu family's name, the young man would still not back down, but instead act as if he was in the right and feared nothing.

"So, you're planning to keep controlling me to the end?"

Lin Chen shrugged: "Looks like you need to go to the hospital to get your ears checked. I've already explained it very clearly, but you still don't understand. Oh, maybe you should see a neurologist too."

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes slightly: "Are you mocking me?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Anyway, I've said what I wanted to say. What you think is your business."

The middle-aged man stared coldly at Lin Chen, but Lin Chen was not afraid at all. He met the man's gaze calmly, and his face still wore that lazy and confident smile.

"Friend, you seem quite confident in yourself. Tell me your background, and let's see if the Chu family can afford to offend you?"

Lin Chen smiled and asked, "What is your surname?"

The middle-aged man frowned: "Chen Tao."

Lin Chen sighed: "You don't even have the surname Chu, so it seems you're just a henchman trained by the Chu family. You keep talking about the Chu family, so it seems the Chu family has treated you well, and you all consider yourselves members of the Chu family."

Chen Tao's face suddenly flushed red. Lin Chen's words were like a knife, stabbing hard into his heart and twisting it tightly.

"If you take someone's money, you have to do their bidding. The Chu family provided me with what I needed, so I did their bidding. It was a mutually agreeable arrangement."

Chen Tao stared at Lin Chen with a mocking look: "Do you expect me to take the Chu family's money but not help the Chu family, instead helping outsiders?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That makes sense!"

Lin Chen seemed to agree with Chen Tao's words, but Chen Tao still felt that Lin Chen was mocking him, which made him very irritable.

"Since you refuse to reveal your background, let me test you and see just how much confidence you have to be so arrogant!"

Lin Chen looked to be only twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, while Chen Tao was already forty-five, having cultivated for almost twenty more years than Lin Chen. Therefore, he didn't take Lin Chen seriously. Regardless, he'd deal with him first.

The boss said that we need to remove all obstacles and that the construction deadline is approaching, so we must finalize the demolition agreement tonight.

Lin Chen laughed and said, "We have no grudges against each other. I advise you not to make a move. You are no match for me."

"Not your match?"

Chen Tao sneered and stepped forward, his five fingers like hooks, grabbing directly at Lin Chen's throat: "So young, yet so arrogant, do you think you're a grandmaster!"

Lin Chen reached out, and the two exchanged blows in mid-air. Then, Lin Chen closed in and punched Chen Tao in the chest, breaking two of Chen Tao's ribs.

Chen Tao was in excruciating pain and lost his composure. Taking advantage of the moment, Lin Chen's hand gripped Chen Tao's throat like an eagle's claw. Lin Chen grinned at the terrified Chen Tao, revealing eight white teeth.

"You're right, I am the Grandmaster!"

Grandmaster!

A master in his late twenties!

Chen Tao was taken aback. Before he could admit defeat, Lin Chen threw him sideways with force. To avoid having his neck broken, Chen Tao had no choice but to follow Lin Chen's force and rush to the side.

"boom!"

Chen Tao crashed into a broken wall, causing another section of the wall to collapse. Chen Tao himself then fell face-first into the pile of bricks.

The commotion immediately attracted Lai Yiliang, who was negotiating with Wang Zimin and other residents. He turned around and saw a person lying face down in the bricks and stones. He shook his head and reminded him, "Brother Chen, go easy on him, don't kill anyone."

Lin Chen was amused by Lai Yiliang's words; this guy thought he was the one who had been defeated.

It's not surprising, considering he's now part of the Chu family, which is incredibly powerful in Linhai. He brought along the expert cultivators sent by the Chu family, so he naturally didn't think he couldn't win.

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Lai Yiliang, it's been a while since I last saw you. You've been doing better and better. I underestimated you."

Lai Yiliang was stunned for a moment before realizing that although the figure standing there was in the shadows, its build did not look like Chen Tao's.

Was it Chen Tao who fell into the pile of bricks and stones?

Who is the remaining person?
Why does that voice sound so familiar?

As Lai Yiliang watched the figure emerge from the darkness, a shadow suddenly flashed into his mind, sending a shiver down his spine and causing cold sweat to pour down his back...
