<h4>Chapter 947: Chapter 952: Massive Compensation (1)</h4>


    The mission assigned to Ren Qing by the higher-ups this time was simple: to capture Ling Chen and bring him to justice. Before executing the mission, Ren Qing specially requested resources from Mr. Zhang, including a Tiger List expert and a security teamposed of special forces soldiers.


    Having witnessed Ling Chen’s skills, Ren Qing made thorough preparations and arranged many capable subordinates.


    That night, after Ling Chen escaped, Ren Qing immediately set her sights on the Nanrong Family. Information gathered from various channels indicated that Ling Chen had a close rtionship with the Nanrong Family, especially with Nanrong Wanqing; the two were already publicly known to be in a rtionship.


    Therefore, Ren Qing believed the Nanrong Family must know Ling Chen’s whereabouts. To quicklyplete the task assigned by her superiors, Ren Qing wasted no time. Once everyone had gathered, she immediately led her subordinates to the Nanrong Family.


    However, what initially seemed to be a simple task ended up in a tense standoff. Now, not only were they in conflict with the local police, but guns were also drawn against each other, inevitably causing great trouble.


    At this moment, hearing Ren Qing’s order, a group of men in suits looked at each other and reluctantly lowered their handguns.


    "Disarm!"


    Upon seeing the actions of the men in suits, Xia Mutong shouted coldly, and more than a dozen police officers immediately swarmed in to confiscate all their handguns.


    "You." Xia Mutong pointed at Ren Qing among the crowd and said, "You can make a call now."


    Xia Mutong was a smart person. Each of these individuals was carrying a gun, and unless they were special government personnel, no one would dare to be so bold. After all, this was Huaxia, where gun control is very strict. Moreover, Xia Mutong noticed these people were well-trained; they must be elite soldiers from the army.

    However, the injuries and their disheveled appearance made Xia Mutong want tough. Nanrong Hao indeed had skills, managing to deal with these elite soldiers using just a group of punks.


    By this time, Ren Qing had finished her call. Less than two minutester, the ringtone on Xia Mutong’s phone rang. Taking out the phone and seeing the caller ID, Xia Mutong became even more certain about the identity of these people.


    The call was from the police chief; it was without a doubt rted to Ren Qing’s earlier phone call.


    Answering the call, Xia Mutong exchanged a few words with the chief, saying: "Yes, I understand. Please rest assured, Chief, I will release them soon and cooperate with their work."


    After speaking, Xia Mutong put away the phone, signaling to her subordinates. Shortly, a group of police officers returned the confiscated guns to Ren Qing’s people.


    "Miss Ren." Xia Mutong walked straight up to Ren Qing and saluted, saying, "I apologize for earlier. If I’ve offended you, please forgive me. I was just doing my job."


    Ren Qing sized up Xia Mutong before her, and spoke coldly: "Since you have confirmed my identity, shouldn’t you cooperate with my work?" Her identity had been confirmed, so there was no need to be polite with this officer. As a government specialmissioner, her rank was far above that of local police, and even the city bureau chief would be respectful and dare not offend her.


    "No problem." Xia Mutong nodded and said, "If Miss Ren needs any help, just give the order. I will do my best to assist."


    "Very well. Now, surround the Nanrong Family; no one should be allowed to enter or exit without my permission. Also, keep an eye on the Nanrong Family members. If they dare to act rashly, arrest them immediately; don’t show them any favors."


    "This..." Xia Mutong hesitated. Although, due to Ling Chen, she and the Nanrong Family could be considered friends.


    "What?" Ren Qing looked coldly at Xia Mutong and said, "Do you have a problem?"


    "No, none. Rest assured, Miss Ren, my people will fully cooperate with your work." Xia Mutong didn’t think much and quickly made a decision. She was a police officer, and police officers should follow orders. Moreover, overseeing Nanrong Wanqing and others herself was better than Ren Qing sending her own people to watch them.


    Shortly, under Xia Mutong’s arrangement, more than a dozen police officers surrounded Nanrong Wanqing and others in the center, prohibiting them from moving. Meanwhile, Ren Qing led her subordinates in, heading toward the Nanrong Family to search for Ling Chen’s whereabouts.


    However, after half an hour of searching, Ren Qing almostbed the entire Nanrong estate but found no trace of Ling Chen.


    Leaving the Nanrong estate with nothing found, Ren Qing looked visibly displeased. She nced at the controlled Nanrong Wanqing and Nanrong Hao, walked a few steps up to them, and coldly asked, "Tell me, where exactly is Ling Chen?"


    Nanrong Hao shrugged and said, "I already told you, I don’t know. Chen isn’t legless; he can go wherever he wants. Although he is the security we employed, we have no authority to restrict his freedom. Miss Ren, now you should believe we are innocent, right? Please don’t me the Nanrong Family for Ling Chen’s matters in the future. Our Nanrong Family might focus on business, but we’re not so easily bullied."


    "Hmmph!" Ren Qing scoffed and said, "Do you think I’ll believe your lies? You definitely know Ling Chen’s whereabouts; you’re just unwilling to tell me. Fine, I’d like to see how long you can shelter him for. Remember, don’t let me catch anything against you, or I won’t be polite."


    Hearing this, Nanrong Hao was indifferent and said, "Miss Ren, I will note your warning. However, let me remind you that this time the Nanrong Family is cooperating with the government’s work. Next time, if youe uninvited and run wild in our territory, you’ll regret it. Remember this: it’s both a reminder and a warning."


    Ren Qing frowned, blurted out, "You..."


    "What do you mean ’you’?" Nanrong Hao interrupted before Ren Qing could finish, "You’re not the only one with connections. Also, earlier your people were rummaging around our Nanrong property; I don’t know if anything was broken, but be warned: Our Nanrong Family has a collection of priceless antiques. I’ll have someone check it thoroughlyter. If anything is damaged, don’t me me for causing you trouble."


    Ren Qing dismissively said, "Don’t worry, I’m not interested in any of your junk, and if anything did get damaged, I’llpensate you."


    "Fine, that’s your word."


    As Nanrong Hao finished speaking, Zhong Wei and Liang Zhao Hui suddenly ran out, holding a blue and white porcin vase. The vase had exquisitely crafted ears on each side, though one of them had already been broken.


    Seeing Zhong Wei and Liang Zhao Hui approaching, Nanrong Hao’s gaze immediately locked on the blue and white porcin vase. Looking at the broken spot, Nanrong Hao frowned and asked, "What’s going on?"
