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

The night is getting darker.

After the daytime hustle and bustle fades away, the courtyards of Beijing appear exceptionally tranquil and peaceful under the bright moonlight.

Under the old locust tree in the backyard, on a large wicker recliner, Lin Chen looked up at the deep night sky studded with glittering stars.

A gentle breeze carried the fragrance of tuberose, bringing with it a rare sense of comfort and tranquility.

Having witnessed Chu Tianxing's madness and the hustle and bustle of the day, this moment of tranquility seems especially precious.

"Honey, do you know?"

Su Qingge broke the silence first, playing with the small sandalwood safety buckle carved by Lin Chen himself. Her voice sounded particularly gentle in the quiet night.

"Every time I go on a mission and encounter danger, just touching it makes me feel incredibly safe. It's like... you're always by my side."

This safety buckle was given to her by Lin Chen a long time ago; the warm wood had long been nourished by her body heat, making it glossy and shiny.

He cherished the gift Lin Chen gave him as if it were his own life, and never parted with it.

Hearing their words, a warm feeling welled up in Lin Chen's heart.

"Buzz—"

The special effect of [God-level Sculpting Skill] is activated!

The insight of [God-level Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine] is activated simultaneously!

In an instant, a wondrous scene appeared in his mind.

He "saw" four barely perceptible energy threads, emitting a faint golden light, extending from his body, each connecting to one of the four amulets.

The four amulets, like four miniature hearts, radiate a gentle and pure energy, slowly and subtly nourishing their bodies.

From his perspective as a "god-level expert in traditional Chinese medicine," their physical conditions were crystal clear.

Their skin is as delicate as the finest mutton fat jade, with almost no flaws. Their blood and energy are abundant, their meridians are unobstructed, and all their bodily functions are in a state of perfect health that far surpasses that of ordinary people!

It turned out to be the case.

Lin Chen understood.

He used [divine carving skills] when he was carving these amulets.

"Fools."

"This amulet is more than just a calming charm."

"It can nourish your body, keep you free from all diseases, and keep you young forever."

"It can also protect you from disaster. If you encounter real danger, it will shatter and take a fatal blow for you."

"From now on, even if I'm not by your side, it will protect you in my place, at all times."

Tears of emotion silently streamed down my face.

They didn't speak again, but nestled even closer to Lin Chen's broad and warm chest, listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat.

At that moment, they felt like the happiest women in the world.

The stars are shining brightly, and the night is gentle.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment, becoming eternal.

The next morning, as the sun rose, golden rays bathed the entire courtyard.

In the open space in the center of the courtyard, Lin Chen was slowly practicing a set of boxing techniques.

His movements looked slow and leisurely, like an elderly person doing morning exercises in a park. Every move was full of the "relaxation" and "softness" of Tai Chi.

But if a true martial arts master were here at this moment, he would be shocked to discover that every move Lin Chen made was in accordance with the ultimate truth of heaven and earth!

His seemingly slow pushing hands and cloud hands actually integrate the power of Bajiquan, the refinement of Xingyiquan, and the agility of Baguaquan from the [Grandmaster-level Fighting Mastery] within a small space!

He wasn't boxing.

He was communicating with this world.

As he finished his last "closing" movement, he slowly opened his mouth and exhaled a long breath of white air.

The white vapor lingered in the morning air, shooting several meters away before slowly dissipating.

This is precisely the manifestation of internal martial arts cultivation reaching an extremely high level, where one's body is thoroughly cleansed and impurities are completely eliminated!

Just then, a series of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the courtyard.

"Brother Lin! Brother Lin! This is fantastic news!"

Li Mingyu, dressed in a police uniform, rushed in excitedly without even knocking, his face beaming with excitement and admiration, holding a gold-embossed letter in his hand.

"What's wrong? Why are you making such a fuss?"

Lin Chen took the towel Shen Manyun handed him, wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead, and asked casually.

"Brother Lin! Interpol! It's an official letter from Interpol!"

Li Mingyu was so excited that he was incoherent. He handed the letter to Lin Chen, pointing to the badge on it, his voice trembling.

"Because you single-handedly and completely destroyed the 'Butterfly' organization, which had been entrenched in the deep web and wreaking havoc globally for ten years, the impact of your actions has shaken the entire world! Interpol headquarters has given you the highest praise! And... and they want to... formally hire you to their European headquarters as their 'Global Special Operations Advisor,' to guide them in solving long-standing international cases!"

Global Special Operations Advisor!

This title is absolutely earth-shattering!

This means that Lin Chen's fame has completely broken out of China and gone global!

It has become an entity that even the highest international law enforcement agencies have to look up to and seek help from!

Li Mingyu felt that this was the most glorious moment he had ever witnessed in his life!

He could already imagine Brother Lin standing on the European stage, pointing out the world's top detectives—how majestic and domineering that would be!

However, faced with this supreme honor that would drive any police officer crazy, Lin Chen's reaction was as calm as a still well.

He didn't even take the letter; he just glanced at it and smiled faintly.

"Go to Europe?"

He shook his head, his tone as relaxed as if he were discussing what to eat for lunch.

"Not interested."

"what?"

The ecstasy on Li Mingyu's face froze instantly. He opened his mouth wide, thinking he had misheard.

"Brother Lin...that's Interpol! It's..."

"Wouldn't it be better to live in a courtyard house in Beijing?"

Lin Chen countered with a question.

"fragrant……"

Li Mingyu answered instinctively.

"Aren't my wives' cooking good?"

Lin Chen continued to ask.

"tasty……"

Li Mingyu looked like he was about to cry.

Lin Chen patted his shoulder and smiled:

"That's fine then. Don't bother me with these kinds of public appearances anymore."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the gate of the courtyard.

He stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the bustling streets outside the door and at the clear blue sky above, a sky belonging to the capital.

His gaze was deep and far-reaching, as if it pierced through the barriers of time and space.

He knew that there was never true peace and tranquility in this world.

Wherever the sun doesn't shine, evil will grow wildly like weeds.

The system in his mind called "Sin Buster" could issue another mission at any time, dragging him into a new storm.

Go to Europe?

To conquer the world?

That's just children playing house.

He, Lin Chen, is already the true uncrowned king standing at the pinnacle of this world.

A king doesn't need to prove himself to anyone.

The king only needs to protect his own kingdom.

And his kingdom lies behind this door.

"Honey, dinner's ready!"

A sweet, charming shout came from behind.

Ye Qingcheng, Su Qingge, Jiang Tingxue, and Su Ke'er, four peerless beauties, were just smiling as they carried plates of exquisite breakfast out of the house. Their eyes reflected his image, filled with love and longing.

The deep and cold expression on Lin Chen's face melted away instantly.

He laughed loudly, turned around, opened his arms, and rushed forward to embrace the four stunningly beautiful figures that would make the world pale in comparison.
