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

Wang Tianlong and his gang scrambled away like stray dogs, not daring to utter a sound, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

The docks were quiet again.

The resort's managers and staff looked at Lin Chen and Ye Qingcheng with a newfound respect that had turned into deep awe and fear.

A single phone call caused a company worth tens of billions to collapse instantly.

What incredible, extraordinary methods are these?!

They were even more careful as they welcomed Lin Chen and his party into the island's most luxurious, and only, presidential-level sea-view villa with a private beach and infinity pool.

The afternoon was spent playing in the water and splashing around, while Lin Chen leisurely enjoyed sunbathing.

As night fell and a bright moon rose from the sea, the resort hosted a grand bonfire party on the public beach to welcome the big boss.

A huge bonfire roared, illuminating the entire beach as bright as day.

Melodious Hawaiian music filled the air as dancers in grass skirts danced enthusiastically around the campfire.

On the beach, besides Lin Chen and his group, there were also some wealthy tourists who had been invited in advance to experience the island's charm.

They gathered in twos and threes, holding wine glasses, chatting and laughing, a scene reminiscent of high society.

The party featured a lavish buffet with a wide variety of premium seafood, steaks, and desserts.

However, the most appealing thing tonight is not the exquisite dishes prepared by five-star chefs.

Instead, there was a makeshift barbecue grill next to the campsite.

"Come on, Qingge, open your mouth."

Lin Chen, wearing a comical cartoon apron, was holding a skewer of freshly grilled, sizzling shrimp and offering it to Su Qingge's mouth.

[God-level culinary skills]!

Barbecue is also part of this amazing skill!

Lin Chen stood in front of the barbecue grill, his hands moving so fast they almost appeared as afterimages.

Sprinkling ingredients, flipping the dough, brushing on oil... every movement is precise to the extreme, as if it has been calculated hundreds of times.

He doesn't even need to look to perfectly control the cooking time of each skewer of ingredients.

Whether it's fresh prawns, plump oysters, or top-quality Wagyu beef, in his hands, they are all grilled to a golden-brown, crispy exterior and tender, juicy interior.

That domineering aroma, a blend of charcoal, cumin, and seafood, seemed to have grown legs and unreasonably entered the noses of everyone on the beach!

"Gulp..."

"My God, what is this smell? It smells amazing!"

"It's that young man... What is he grilling? Why does it smell so good?"

Those wealthy people who had been maintaining their elegant demeanor, holding wine glasses and talking animatedly, all involuntarily stopped talking and their eyes were drawn to Lin Chen's barbecue grill.

The overwhelming aroma filled their senses, and when they looked at the exquisite but bland food on their plates, they suddenly felt utterly tasteless, and their mouths began to water uncontrollably.

However, they could only watch helplessly.

Because that barbecue grill has been firmly "occupied" by four stunningly beautiful women with different styles.

"Brother Lin Chen, I want to eat that scallop, with lots of minced garlic!"

Su Ke'er was like a little bird eagerly waiting to be fed.

"I want my beef, medium-rare."

Ye Qingcheng remained aloof, but her phoenix eyes, fixed on the roasted meat, betrayed her desire.

"I'm fine with either."

Jiang Tingxue was the quietest of them all, simply sitting quietly next to Lin Chen, her eyes fixed on him.

Lin Chen transformed into an all-around super dad, effortlessly fulfilling all the requests of his four precious children.

Sometimes he would personally feed Su Qingge a bite of grilled chicken wing, making the beauty blush; sometimes he would hand Ye Qingcheng grilled oysters, watching her elegantly savor them; and sometimes he would magically grill a skewer of marshmallows, making Su Ke'er giggle...

The warm, sweet, and ambiguous scene filled the surrounding wealthy tourists with envy, jealousy, and resentment, making them feel as if the top-quality steak on their plates had instantly turned into pig feed.

Just as this joyful atmosphere reached its peak...

"Ahhhhhh!!! Help me!!!"

A piercing scream, filled with boundless terror, suddenly came from the depths of the dark, dense forest behind the beach!

The sound was so sharp it seemed to pierce one's eardrums!

"Whoosh!"

The melodious music playing on the beach suddenly stopped!

The laughter and cheers of everyone instantly froze!

The entire beach fell into a deathly silence!

Everyone was stunned, looking at each other, their smiles still frozen on their lips.

Lin Chen's eyes sharpened instantly!

He immediately put down the skewers in his hand, and his eyes, which had been smiling, instantly became as sharp as an eagle's!

[Amazing hearing ability!]

The source of the sound is about 300 meters away, in a detached wooden cabin at the edge of the woods!

Something's happened.

He only had time to say one sentence to the four women beside him before he transformed into a black afterimage, like a cheetah hunting its prey, and charged headlong into the depths of the forest!

"Lin Chen!"

Su Qingge reacted the fastest. Her professional instincts as a police officer were instantly triggered, and without the slightest hesitation, she immediately followed!

Although Ye Qingcheng, Jiang Tingxue, and Su Ke'er were somewhat frightened, they immediately stood up and followed closely behind.

After a brief moment of deathly silence, the beach erupted into chaos!

"What's going on?!"

"What was that sound just now? Was it a scream?"

"It sounds like it's coming from the woods! Oh my god, could something have happened?"

Panic began to spread among the crowd.
