Chapter 146: Chapter 132: This Comrade Lin is too much! (Please subscribe)_3

Waiting outside for Lin Chuan wasn’t just Xia Qingqing, there was also another heavyweight figure.

Director Zhang Biao.

Dressed in a white shirt, Director Zhang approached Lin Chuan when he came out and patted him on the shoulder with a chuckle, “Lin Chuan, I knew you’d be fine.”

Lin Chuan was startled to see Director Zhang, “I didn’t expect to alarm you, Director Zhang.”

“You’re a talent and a hero of Anling. The fact that you’ve been shaken up this time means I must find the person behind this and give you an explanation.”

As Director Zhang led Lin Chuan to the police car, he gave Lin Chuan a dose of reassurance.

Lin Chuan’s heart stirred, and he nodded in thanks, “Thank you for your concern, Director Zhang.”

One by one, the police cars began to leave East Street.

A few officers stayed behind to handle the subsequent matters.

Accompanied personally by Director Zhang and Hu Daqiang, Lin Chuan returned to the Anling Police Station to give a full statement on the incident’s events.

After completing his statement, Director Zhang offered to arrange 24-hour protection for Lin Chuan.

Lin Chuan declined.

The reason for refusal was simple.

If the instigator behind the scenes couldn’t get to Lin Chuan, they would target those close to him instead. Lin Chuan would actually prefer they come after him!

If it wasn’t a top-notch assassin, Lin Chuan wouldn’t care.

For example, the ten thugs tonight didn’t put particular pressure on Lin Chuan.

At that moment, his only concern was the Little Landlady by his side.

He was worried that with their overwhelming numbers, someone might slip past him and harm the Little Landlady, something he absolutely wouldn’t allow to happen!

Night had fallen, and like ink, the darkness quietly spread over the entire city.

All was quiet, the clouds above had dispersed, and moonlight spilled onto the ground, draping Anling in a faint veil of silver. On the road, Shen Qianqian was driving the Mercedes GLC with Xia Qingqing, taking Lin Chuan and the Little Landlady back to Happiness Community.

A police car followed them.

Sitting in the car with the window down, Lin Chuan let the cool evening breeze, carrying the fragrance of grass and trees, wash over his face as he took a deep breath.

“You two also be careful on your way back,” he said as he got out of the car at the entrance of Happiness Community and gave Shen Qianqian and Xia Qingqing a word of warning.

The two police officer friends both nodded with a smile, “Don’t worry.”

Lin Chuan watched as Shen and Xia left.

Inside Happiness Community, the streetlights shone lonely, casting a warm yellow light and outlining Lin Chuan’s figure, with the Little Landlady beside him, tightly clutching his arm.

“It’s okay now,” Lin Chuan said softly, patting the back of the Little Landlady’s hand in reassurance.

He knew that even though he wasn’t worried about the ten thugs, the Little Landlady beside him was surely worried.

“I’m not afraid,” said the Little Landlady with a genuine smile, hugging Lin Chuan’s arm, feeling inexplicably secure.

Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow, “You’re that brave, huh? You weren’t scared of all those people?”

“With you here, I’m not afraid,” the Little Landlady said, lifting her face and affectionately nuzzling Lin Chuan’s arm like a kitten.

Laughter bubbled on Lin Chuan’s face, “Time to go to sleep.”

“I sleep alone…” The Little Landlady showed a hint of trepidation on her face.

“Don’t worry, I’m here,” Lin Chuan reassured her.

“Ah?” The Little Landlady was startled.

“Let’s go,” said Lin Chuan with a smile, pulling the Little Landlady up to the rented apartment on the sixth floor.

The Little Landlady’s mouth pursed ever so slightly, a blush of embarrassment across her pretty face, but her rich theoretical knowledge gave her a great deal of courage, “Chairman, I brought a few special outfits.”

Lin Chuan was taken aback for a moment but then laughed, “I only meant for you to sleep in my room. You won’t be in danger, I didn’t mean for you to sleep with me. What are you thinking?”

The Little Landlady pouted slightly, looking a bit disappointed, “I thought we’d sleep together.”

“Well, that’s not urgent,” Lin Chuan replied with the corner of his mouth twitching.

Blinking playfully, the Little Landlady teased, “Is there anything more urgent than that?”
