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

As evening fell, the afterglow of the setting sun bathed the ancient yet modern metropolis of Beijing in a warm golden glow.

As soon as Lin Chen parked the black SUV, which had been modified by a devil, into the courtyard, he smelled a mouthwatering aroma of food wafting from the main house.

Without a doubt, it must be my mom, Shen Manyun, showing off her culinary skills again.

"You brat, you've been running around all day, so you finally know to come home? Hurry up and wash your hands and get ready for dinner!"

Shen Manyun, wearing an apron and holding a spatula, poked her head out of the kitchen, her voice as loud as ever.

"Alright! You gave the order, and I rushed back!"

Lin Chen chuckled, preparing to sneak into the house to steal a couple of pieces of freshly cooked braised pork.

In the living room, four stunning beauties—Su Qingge, Jiang Tingxue, Ye Qingcheng, and Su Ke'er—were sitting together, chatting away.

Although everything seemed perfectly harmonious on the surface, the subtle, underlying tension in the air still intrigued Lin Chen.

"Hey, everyone's here? What are you chatting about that makes you so happy?"

Lin Chen smiled and moved closer, preparing to unleash his divine skill of balancing water.

However, at this moment—

"Ring ring ring—!"

A sudden, piercing cell phone ring shattered the warm and harmonious atmosphere.

It's Su Qingge's phone.

She picked up her phone and glanced at the caller ID, her delicate brows furrowing slightly; it seemed to be an unfamiliar number.

But out of professional habit, she answered the phone anyway.

"Hello, this is Su Qingge."

After saying something on the other end of the phone, Su Qingge's once dashing face turned deathly pale in just a few seconds, losing all color and becoming ashen white!

Her pupils contracted sharply with extreme fear, and her hand holding the phone began to tremble uncontrollably.

"No...it's impossible...this can't be..."

She muttered to herself absentmindedly, her voice filled with disbelief and horror.

"Clatter!"

The phone slipped from her limp hand and fell heavily onto the expensive golden nanmu wood floor.

"Qingge, what's wrong?!"

Lin Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he rushed over in one stride, pulling her cold body into his arms the moment she was about to collapse.

The delicate body in his arms trembled like a leaf in the cold wind.

"My...my master..."

Su Qingge's lips trembled, and tears streamed down her face like a burst dam. She clutched Lin Chen's clothes tightly, as if grasping at the last straw, her voice hoarse and desperate.

"Old Zhou... there was a gas explosion at my master's house... he's in the city hospital being treated, the doctor said... the doctor said... he's not going to make it!"

Old Zhou!

Lin Chen instantly pictured the old detective who always had a cigarette in his mouth, a wrinkled face, and eyes that were narrowed into slits when he looked at people, yet who always gave Su Qingge the most steadfast support at crucial moments.

That was the master who brought Su Qingge into the industry. To her, his kindness was as heavy as a mountain, and their relationship was like that of father and daughter!

Gas explosion?

Lin Chen's gaze turned as sharp as a knife in that instant!

[God-level Danger Perception] is frantically issuing warnings!

This is definitely not an accident!

"Don't panic!"

Lin Chen's voice wasn't loud, but it carried an undeniable, absolute power that seemed capable of suppressing everything.

He cupped Su Qingge's tear-streaked face in his hands, his gaze fixed intently on her beautiful eyes filled with fear and despair.

"With me here, even the King of Hell can't take him away."

Before he finished speaking, he no longer hesitated, picked up Su Qingge in his arms, and rushed out the door!

"husband!"

Ye Qingcheng and the others also realized what was happening and anxiously followed.

"You all stay home and don't go anywhere!"

Without turning his head, Lin Chen let out a low roar and rushed out of the courtyard gate.

He carefully placed Su Qingge into the passenger seat, then swiftly jumped into the all-black bulletproof SUV.

"Buzz—!!!!"

The engine ignited instantly, unleashing a furious roar like a prehistoric beast awakening!

Lin Chen's eyes were cold and focused, and he instantly activated his [God-level Driving Skill]!

In a mere 0.01 seconds, his brain transformed into a super navigator operating from a God's-eye view, incorporating the entire city's road conditions, traffic light cycles, and even the width of every alleyway into its computational model!

"Hold on tight!"

With a low shout, he slammed the accelerator to the floor!

"boom--!!!"

This steel behemoth, like a black lightning bolt that had broken free of its restraints, roared out of the alleyway of the courtyard house with an extremely arrogant and unreasonable manner, and instantly rushed into the steel torrent that was stuck in traffic during the evening rush hour!

"What kind of car is that? Are you crazy?!"

"Damn it! What is he going to do?!"

The surrounding drivers were terrified by this sudden scene, and a cacophony of honking horns and curses erupted.

However, Lin Chen ignored all of this.

In his eyes, there was only the single optimal path ahead, composed of countless data streams!

Under his control, the massive SUV seemed to transform into the most agile ghost!

With an extremely slight tremor in the steering wheel, the car narrowly and precariously passed between two vehicles at an incredible angle, with the distance between them less than five centimeters!

The traffic light ahead is red, and the flow of vehicles has come to a standstill.

Without even looking, Lin Chen swerved the steering wheel sharply to the right, sending the car crashing onto the sidewalk. Amidst the terrified screams of passersby, the car sped along the sidewalk, then at the next intersection, executed a textbook drift, the rear of the car arcing gracefully as it forcefully squeezed back into the lane!

"Drip drip drip—"

Soon, several traffic police motorcycles spotted the reckless SUV, turned on their sirens, and gave chase from behind.

"Black SUV ahead! Stop immediately! Stop immediately for inspection!"

Lin Chen curled his lips into a cold smile, too lazy to even bother with him.

Instead of slowing down, he accelerated again, made a sharp turn, and drove straight into a narrow alley that could only accommodate one car at a time!

"A madman! He's a madman!"

The traffic police behind were dumbfounded.

Driving this fast in these alleys, what's the difference between that and suicide?

However, the next second, they witnessed a scene they would never forget for the rest of their lives.

The SUV moved through the narrow alley as if it had entered a low-altitude flight mode, weaving left and right, constantly using the walls to perform small side drifts and corners. The wheels sparked brightly as they rubbed against the walls, yet it maintained a terrifyingly high speed!

Running more than a dozen red lights! Driving against traffic! Drifting! Leaping over!

What would normally be a 40-minute journey was compressed into just 10 minutes thanks to Lin Chen's nothing short of miraculous driving skills!

"Squeak—crunch—!!!!"

With an extremely ear-piercing tire screech, the black Vietnamese armored vehicle performed an incredibly violent drift, coming to a precise stop at almost a 90-degree angle right in front of the city hospital's emergency building!

The four tires left four charred marks on the ground, and wisps of white smoke rose up, filling the air with a strong smell of burning rubber.

The entire process was smooth and effortless, and absolutely domineering!

Lin Chen turned off the engine, unbuckled his seatbelt, and turned to look at the passenger seat.

Su Qingge was speechless, stunned by the incredible scene. On her pale face, besides sadness, there was a deep sense of awe and dependence on Lin Chen from the depths of her soul.

"get off!"

Without wasting any more words, Lin Chen grabbed her and headed straight for the emergency room!
