<h4>Chapter 1081: Chapter 1088: Asking for a Beating</h4>


    "Miss Nanrong?" Xia Mutong looked at the hurriedly approaching Nanrong Wanqing and asked in confusion, "What are you doing here?"


    "Officer Xia." Nanrong Wanqing asked anxiously, "What’s the situation inside? Is my brother okay?"


    "Your brother?" Xia Mutong was slightly taken aback and immediately understood. She had just received a call reporting that Tianyu Leisure Club was being vandalized, so she brought people over. Now, hearing Nanrong Wanqing’s words, it seemed that the one causing trouble for the Tianyu Club might be Nanrong Hao.


    Still, Xia Mutong felt a bit strange inside. Why would Nanrong Haoe to cause trouble for them? Could there be some conflict between the parties?


    While pondering, an Audi car slowly approached and parked by the roadside. As the car door opened, Xia Mutong looked at the neer and her gaze couldn’t help but freeze.


    Ling Chen? Why is he here too?


    Thinking about it, it made sense. Ling Chen’s rtionship with Nanrong Hao was well known. If Nanrong Hao was in trouble, Ling Chen couldn’t sit still. Besides Ling Chen, Jiang Hao stepped out of the Audi car.


    Seeing the dozen or so policemen outside Tianyu Club, Jiang Hao’s expression slightly changed, silently thinking to himself that this wasn’t good. Initially, he was nning to bring his brothers to support Nanrong Hao, but Ling Chen didn’t allow it to prevent chaos. Moreover, with Ling Chen in charge, it wouldn’t make a difference how many more people they had.


    At this moment, Ling Chen’s gaze was fixed on Nanrong Wanqing. Having not seen her for half a month, it felt like Nanrong Wanqing had lost quite some weight.


    As they drew closer, Xia Mutong proactively asked, "Why are you here?"


    Ling Chen withdrew his gaze and looked at Xia Mutong with a smile, "Officer Xia, I heard there were some minor problems here, so I came to check it out."


    "Really just to check?" Xia Mutong clearly didn’t trust Ling Chen very much. She had dealt with Ling Chen more than once and was very familiar with his way of doing things.


    "Ling Chen, don’t say I didn’t warn you. This is a police matter; it’s best you don’t interfere."


    Ling Chen smiled slightly and whispered, "Officer Xia, can we talk privately?"


    Xia Mutong frowned but still agreed to Ling Chen’s request. They walked aside and began to talk quietly.


    Seeing Ling Chen and Xia Mutong whispering to each other, Nanrong Wanqing lightly bit her thin lips, feeling somewhat ufortable for reasons unknown. Recalling what Nanrong Hao had said to her, Nanrong Wanqing sighed lightly. Perhaps her brother wasn’t wrong.


    Soon, Ling Chen and Xia Mutong returned to Nanrong Wanqing’s side. Nanrong Wanqing tried her best not to look at Ling Chen beside her and asked, "Officer Xia, can you take action quickly? I... I’m worried about my brother’s safety."


    "Wanqing, don’t worry." Before Xia Mutong could reply, Ling Chen had already taken over, "I just discussed with Officer Xia, we’ll go in and take a look first."


    "We?" Unable to suppress the doubts in her heart, Nanrong Wanqing blurted out.


    Ling Chen chuckled, giving Nanrong Wanqing a reassuring look, and said, "Trust me, you all will be fine." With that, Ling Chen knocked on the door of Tianyu Club.


    Soon, the door opened, and Ling Chen led Nanrong Wanqing directly inside.


    In the club lobby, Nanrong Hao was surrounded by a group of subordinates in a protective circle, confronting Liu Wei and his group in the center.


    With the arrival of Ling Chen and Nanrong Wanqing, the expressions on Nanrong Hao’s and Liu Wei’s faces revealed different emotions. Nanrong Hao was pleased; as long as Ling Chen was there, Liu Wei’s two skilled bodyguards would no longer be a threat. In contrast, watching Ling Chen and Nanrong Wanqing walk side by side, Liu Wei’s mouth curled into a mocking smile, especially as Ling Chenpletely disregarded him.


    "Miss Nanrong, we meet again," Liu Wei said with a smile.


    Nanrong Wanqing’s expression was indifferent, ignoring Liu Wei’s words, and continued to stick close to Ling Chen. Even if conflicts arose with Ling Chen, as long as Ling Chen was beside her, Nanrong Wanqing felt exceptionally calm no matter the trouble she faced.


    Perhaps, she had grown ustomed to trusting Ling Chen.


    "Haozi, how’s it going, are you okay?" Ling Chen ignored Liu Wei and his trio in the lobby and walked directly to Nanrong Hao, asking with concern.


    "I’m fine." Nanrong Hao squeezed out a smile, but his gaze swept towards the two middle-aged men beside Liu Wei, gently reminding, "Chen, be careful, Liu has skilled fighters protecting him."


    Ling Chen nodded, smiled, and patted Nanrong Hao on the shoulder, saying, "Don’t worry, leave it to me."


    "Wanqing, take care of Haozi, let me handle the rest." With that, Ling Chen’s footsteps turned, heading towards Liu Wei not far away.


    "Ling Chen, there’s no business for you here; you’d best not interfere, lest you bring trouble on yourself," Liu Wei said coldly, not taking Ling Chen seriously at all.


    Ling Chen’s lips curled in a constant smile, softly speaking, "What did you say?"


    Liu Wei frowned, impatiently saying, "I said..."


    Smack!


    Before Liu Wei could finish, a loud p sounded in the lobby.


    In an instant, everyone’s gaze focused on Ling Chen and Liu Wei.


    Liu Wei covered his aching cheek, looking at Ling Chen in disbelief. He hadn’t expected Ling Chen would dare to hit him. After a brief stupor, Liu Wei quickly regained hisposure, looking at Ling Chen with a cold gaze, grinding his teeth, "You dare..."


    Smack!


    Before Liu Wei could finish his sentence again, another crisp p sounded. With two consecutive ps, Liu Wei’s cheeks were now swollen on both sides.


    "Speak up!" Ling Chen still carried a smile, "Why did you stop speaking?"


    "Courting death!"


    This time, Liu Wei didn’t speak, but the two middle-aged men beside him had already moved, rushing toward Ling Chen. When Ling Chen pped Yang Wei earlier, they had sensed that Ling Chen was not an ordinary person. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been unable to stop him.


    Therefore, for assured dominance, they decided to attack simultaneously.


    Seeing the two middle-aged men charge at him, Ling Chen swayed left and right, his body suddenly bing a blur, disappearing from their sight.


    Huh?


    The two were puzzled. Where did he go? As they wondered, a teasing voice came from behind, "Are you looking for me?"


    Upon hearing Ling Chen’s voice, the two middle-aged men’s expressions changed drastically, quickly turning around.


    Bam! Bam!


    As they turned, they only saw a blur before them, and then a wave of intense pain surged over them, permeating their bodies, almost making them spit out blood.


    Seeing Ling Chen standing quietly as if he hadn’t moved at all, fear flickered in the eyes of the two middle-aged men.


    "Come on, continue!" Ling Chen beckoned provocatively with his fingers.


    "You... are you a Dragon List expert?" one middle-aged man asked in a deep voice.


    "Why bber so much? I’m not here for idle chat. Since you’re not making a move, I’ll switch to my turn."
