You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

2:30 a.m., within the Second Ring Road of Beijing.

An Audi RS7, like an elegant yet swift cheetah, silently glided into the depths of a quiet alley, finally stopping in front of a vermilion gate.

Lin Chen turned off the engine, but did not get out of the car immediately.

He leaned back in his chair and let out a long sigh, slowly letting go of the thrilling underground battle and the surging power brought by the system reward.

Outside the car window, the deep night of Beijing unfolded, peaceful and serene.

Inside the car window was him alone, a man who had just emerged from a mountain of corpses and a shocking conspiracy.

This stark contrast gave him a feeling of being in another world.

"go home."

Lin Chen muttered something softly and opened the car door.

The moment he stepped into the courtyard, a warm atmosphere, completely different from the outside world, rushed towards him.

The lights in the courtyard were all on, their warm yellow glow illuminating the entire courtyard as if it were daytime, dispelling all darkness and cold.

There were many people in the living room.

Before Lin Chen could even change his shoes, a fragrant breeze carrying a sob suddenly rushed into his arms.

"Brother Lin Chen!"

Su Ke'er hugged him tightly, burying her head against his chest as if she were using all her strength, afraid that he would suddenly disappear. Lin Chen could clearly feel the petite body in his arms trembling slightly.

He looked down and saw that Su Ke'er's eyes were red like a rabbit's, clearly she had just been crying.

"I...I called you but you didn't answer. Qingge said...that you went to chase after that big bad guy alone. I'm so scared..."

Su Ke'er's voice was thick with nasal tone, filled with lingering fear and grievance.

Immediately afterwards, three other figures quickly surrounded them.

Ye Qingcheng was still dressed in a smart business suit, trying her best to maintain her aloof CEO persona. However, her tightly clenched hands, with knuckles turning white, and the undisguised worry in the depths of her eyes, had already betrayed her true feelings.

"It's good that you're back."

She simply said five words, but her voice was a few degrees hoarseer than usual.

Jiang Tingxue, the aloof forensic doctor, was completely devoid of her usual coldness at this moment.

She strode forward and, without a word, grabbed Lin Chen's hand, her slender, fair fingers quickly examining his wrist and arm as if she were inspecting "evidence" just brought back from a crime scene.

"Are you injured? Is anything bothering you? Do you need a full medical checkup?"

A barrage of professional questions came out of her mouth, and the anxiety and concern in her eyes were more direct than any words.

Finally, there's Su Qingge.

As the only one who knew the whole story, her worries were actually the deepest.

She watched Lin Chen dance with death in the underground maze through the surveillance cameras, and the feeling of her heart pounding in her throat still makes her feel suffocated when she thinks about it now.

She didn't say anything, but silently walked to Lin Chen's side and gently helped him take off his slightly dusty coat, her movements as tender as if she were handling a rare treasure.

Four women, four different ways of expressing themselves, yet they all share the same deep love and concern.

Lin Chen's heart was instantly filled with this warm feeling.

He had remained unfazed when facing Chen Yuan and a ton of explosives, but now a feeling of tenderness welled up inside him.

He activated [God-level Micro-expression Control], completely suppressing the trace of ferocity left on his face from the fierce battle, replacing it with a gentle smile that could melt an iceberg.

He stretched out his arms and embraced the four stunningly beautiful women, each with a distinct style, in a way that was both domineering and tender.

A tight hug.

"Alright, alright, you're a grown man, why are you still crying?"

Lin Chen gently patted Su Ke'er on the back, then glanced at the other three women.

"I'm perfectly fine, aren't I? I told you they were just a few clowns jumping around; they couldn't even touch the hem of my clothes."

His voice wasn't loud, but it carried a reassuring power that commanded respect.

The four delicate bodies in his arms gradually relaxed.

"Don't do that again!"

Ye Qingcheng said in a muffled voice in his arms, her tone carrying a hint of command, but it sounded more like she was being coquettish.

"Exactly! You have to take me with you if you go!"

Su Qingge couldn't help but agree, her eyes filled with determination.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen couldn't help but laugh.

He released his embrace, and then, with lightning speed, kissed each of the four women on the smooth forehead.

From Su Ke'er, to Ye Qingcheng, then to Jiang Tingxue, and finally to Su Qingge.

The rain and dew are distributed equally, leaving no one out.

This incredibly skillful act of balancing the situation instantly made all four women blush.

The tense and worried atmosphere just moments before suddenly turned into something romantic and shy.

"This is punishment, punishment for your lack of faith in my abilities."

Lin Chen was talking nonsense with a straight face.

"you……"

Ye Qingcheng was so embarrassed that she wanted to retort, but she didn't know what to say.

Just then, the curtain to the inner room was lifted, and Lin's mother, Shen Manyun, and Lin's father, Lin Zhiyuan, came out.

The elderly couple wore identical smiles of satisfaction, clearly having witnessed what had just happened.

"Ahem, brat, it's good that you're back."

Lin Zhiyuan coughed, breaking the awkward silence, but the pride in his eyes was impossible to hide.

"that is!"

Ms. Shen Manyun was much more direct. She smiled broadly, holding one of her daughters-in-law (in reserve) in each hand, and praised Lin Chen repeatedly.

"My son is really something! Come on, don't just stand there, I made you some pork rib soup, it's almost cold, drink some to warm yourself up!"

Seeing this warm and harmonious scene before him, Lin Chen's smile deepened.

This is everything he is willing to risk his life to protect.
