<h4>Chapter 1082: Chapter 1089: Courting Death (Part 1)</h4>


    Before the two middle-aged men could respond, Ling Chen tapped the tip of his toes lightly, his body instantly transforming into a shadow and disappearing before their eyes.


    Damn!


    A strong sense of crisis surged from their hearts. The two middle-aged men quickly turned around, casting their eyes around in search of Ling Chen’s whereabouts.


    "I’m here." The voice came and immediately caught their attention. However, when they turned their heads, they found nothing. At the same time, a gust of wind swooshed in, pressing toward their backs.


    Before they had time to turn around, a powerful force suddenly struck, directly blowing the two of them away.


    Seeing the two experts brought by Liu Wei being toyed with by Ling Chen, everyone’s hearts that were in suspense finally settled down. Looking at the two middle-aged men whonded on the ground, Ling Chen sneered, toozy to pay further attention, and directly turned his gaze to Liu Wei, striding over.


    "You... don’te over!" At this moment, Liu Wei was still immersed in the shock from just now, unable to gather his thoughts.


    Impossible! This is impossible! Those two experts were the Liu Family’s elites. Normally, this type of Dragon List expert would not lower themselves to do security work. But because the former head of the Liu Family had shown kindness to these two, out of gratitude, they chose to stay and serve the Liu Family. This time, whening to East Sea City, the current head of the Liu Family, Liu Wei’s father, fearing for his son’s safety on a solo trip, dispatched these two experts to protect him closely.


    Although they were nominally the Liu family’s security, Liu Wei dared not show any disrespect, maintaining an attitude of utmost respect at all times.


    As long as those two were by his side, it was his biggest reliance in his operations in East Sea City. However, he couldn’t believe that an obscure young man could easily defeat them. Moreover, looking at Ling Chen’s manner, it seemed he hadn’t exerted his full strength, merely toying with these two experts.


    "Liu Wei, other than them, do you have any other means? Bring them out all at once, so as not to waste everyone’s time." Ling Chen said lightly.


    As Ling Chen approached, Liu Wei felt an inexplicable pressureing, even making breathing difficult. Stepping back two steps, he tried to widen the distance from Ling Chen, and said in a deep voice, "Ling Chen, don’t be so arrogant. Isn’t Nanrong Wanqing your girlfriend? I warn you, I have incriminating evidence against her. If you dare to harm a hair on my head, I’ll make sure she rots in prison."


    "Is that so?" Ling Chen chuckled indifferently, "So, should I feel scared hearing that from you?"


    Hearing Ling Chen’s words, for some reason, Liu Wei sensed a tinge of ridicule, as if Ling Chen wasn’t taking his threat seriously at all.


    "Ling Chen!" Liu Wei gritted his teeth, ring coldly at Ling Chen, "You better not push me."


    "I don’t have time for your nonsense. The police are outside, why not let them handle this? Haozi, go, bring Officer Xia in."


    As soon as Ling Chen finished speaking, Nanrong Hao hesitated a bit but quickly walked over to Ling Chen and whispered, "Brother Chen, I just went through the information. If we let the police get involved, Sister will definitely be charged, and it’s very serious. Perhaps we should..."


    Before Nanrong Hao could finish his sentence, with one look, Ling Chen stopped him, saying, "What are you afraid of? With me here, your sister won’t have any trouble."


    Seeing Ling Chen’s confident demeanor, Nanrong Hao immediately swallowed his words. He knew well of Ling Chen’s capabilities; since he said so, he must have his ways. Now, Nanrong Hao gestured someone to open the doors of the Tianyu Club, letting Xia Mutong and her team inside.


    Liu Wei was slightly taken aback, not expecting Ling Chen to voluntarily involve the police. Could it be... could it be he truly doesn’t care about Nanrong Wanqing?


    As he pondered, Xia Mutong already entered the lobby, nced around to get a brief understanding of the situation, and looked at Liu Wei and Ling Chen, asking, "Who called the police just now?"


    "Officer Xia, it was me." Liu Wei quickly stepped forward. Thest time Xia Mutong led a team to raid Tianyu Leisure Club, Liu Wei, impressed by her beauty, remembered this woman. He pointed at Nanrong Hao and others and said, "They barged into my ce and injured my people."


    Before Xia Mutong could respond, Ling Chen answered calmly, "Officer Xia, these are just minor issues, no need for much concern."


    Upon hearing this, Xia Mutong squinted her eyes and asked, "Then what would be considered a major issue?"


    "Haozi, show thatpiled data to Officer Xia."


    Nanrong Hao was somewhat worried, as it involved Nanrong Wanqing. However, Ling Chen gave the order, and Nanrong Hao dared not disobey, immediately handing the data Liu Wei provided him over to Xia Mutong.


    As she looked through the contents of the data, Xia Mutong’s gaze grew colder and colder. Even Liu Wei standing to the side could feel the chilling aura emanating from her.


    "Officer Xia, this data..." Liu Wei was baffled by Ling Chen’s intention, handing over such information to Xia Mutong for review. He knew that with the agreement between him and Nanrong Wanqing, all the charges would fall on her head, while he would merely be an aplice, facing minor repercussions.


    "Liu Wei, can you exin what this is about?" Xia Mutong asked coldly.


    Faced with Xia Mutong’s questioning, Liu Wei nced at Ling Chen and Nanrong Wanqing, a secret sneer forming in his heart.


    Hmph! Since you’re courting death, don’t me me.


    "Officer Xia, all these were orchestrated by Nanrong Wanqing. I was forced; the Hongyu Group is wealthy and powerful, especially in East Sea City, and I dare not offend her, hence... Officer Xia, here’s the agreement I signed with Nanrong Wanqing. Please have a look." Liu Wei said, pulling the agreement from his pocket and presenting it to Xia Mutong.


    Before arriving, fearing the situation might slip from his control, he carried the agreement with him. Now, it seemed his decision was correct. With this agreement, he could safely escape the predicament.


    Xia Mutong browsed through the agreement’s content, slightly furrowing her brows. Though not a businessperson, she understood fundamental principles—no one would sign an agreement taking full responsibility solely on oneself as it would undoubtedly be foolish.


    "Miss Nanrong, I’d like to know if this agreement is real?" Xia Mutong asked, looking at Nanrong Wanqing.


    From the moment Liu Wei presented the agreement, Nanrong Wanqing felt her heart sinking to the bottom. She knew that what was meant toe would eventuallye, though she didn’t expect it to be so soon.


    Furthermore, Ling Chen’s stance was perplexing. Knowing Liu Wei had such an agreement, potentially disadvantaging her, yet he still initiated police involvement—what was he truly up to?
