<h4>Chapter 1109: Chapter 1116: Old K</h4>


    "Alright." Ling Chen changed his tone, responding fearlessly, "Since you want to y, I’ll y along, but you should at least tell me your name."


    "Mr. Ling, there’s no need to slyly ask my name. If you need a name, you might as well call me Old K. Well, I’ve said all I need to. Mr. Ling, a reminder, the second explosion is connected to your friends. If you can’t find out within three days, you can just say goodbye to your friends, haha!"


    Amidst Old K’s wildughter, the call was actively hung up by the other party.


    Putting down the phone, Ling Chen turned to Hu Fei and asked, "Fatty, how is it, did you locate the position?"


    "No, that guy is too cunning, the signal keeps changing, so it’s impossible to urately lock it down. If I had ten more seconds, I could have pinpointed his location, but s..."


    Ling Chen nodded, it seems the other party knows his abilities very well, which is why they hung up ten seconds earlier. Someone who knows themselves well, it indicates the other party knows him quite well.


    Interesting! Ling Chen squinted his eyes, the enemy hidden in the shadows might be an old acquaintance.


    After pondering, Ling Chen put aside thoughts about the man’s identity. Now, he had no energy to dwell on these issues. Just now, Old K’s words were still swirling in his mind. The second explosion is rted to his friends, this is definitely not a joke. He has so many friends, who knows which one the other party might target.


    "Fatty, call a few professionals, and let’s move immediately."


    "Alright."


    Leaving the base, Ling Chen separately called Liu Xiyao and Tang Shiyun, among others, telling them to stay home obediently and go nowhere.


    Honestly, Ling Chen wasn’t sure whether Old K’s warning was true, but when ites to friends’ safety, he can’t stand idly by. Even if it’s false, he must carefully check once and never gamble with everyone’s lives.


    Arriving at Liu Xiyao’s house, Ling Chen brought several professionals to thoroughly search inside and outside the house. Over an hour passed with no findings. After inquiring about some circumstances, Ling Chen spoke, "Yao, if you don’t mind, why don’t you stay at my ce for the next few days."


    "Go to your ce?" Liu Xiyao was slightly taken aback, not expecting Ling Chen would make such a request, "This... this doesn’t seem very appropriate, right?"


    "It’s perfectly appropriate. Yao, this situation is rather troublesome, that guy called Old K might be a threat to you, even though we don’t know if it’s true, we can’t be careless. Moreover, living in this ce, if anything happens, I won’t be able to reach first in time. For your safety, it’s better to stay at my house." After speaking, without waiting for Liu Xiyao’s refusal, Ling Chen had already made the decision for her.


    Going separate ways, as Liu Xiyao headed to the vi, Ling Chen took others directly by car to Tang Shiyun’s house.


    Simrly, Ling Chen didn’t say much, just told Tang Shiyun there might be danger, asking her to stay at his ce for the time being. Tang Shiyun happily agreed to Ling Chen’s invitation. Although Xu Hong was concerned about the implications, she couldn’t reject Ling Chen’s serious depiction of the situation.


    Therefore, both beauties were ’prompted’ into Ling Chen’s house using the same method.


    Besides Tang Shiyun and Liu Xiyao, Ling Chen had quite a number of friends, including Xia Mutong and Nanrong Wanqing, who could be targets of Old K.


    Xia Mutong is a police officer, and Ling Chen knows Xia Mutong’s skills well. Since Xia Mutong underwent modification by the God Organization, her strength is several times more potent than ordinary people; even skilled experts may not be her match. However strong Xia Mutong is, he ought to remind her to stay cautious, lest any ident happens.


    Right away, Ling Chen called Xia Mutong. Ling Chen understands Xia Mutong well, if he reports the facts, Xia Mutong surely will dig deeply. Besides, Xia Mutong has never known what danger is, and this is undoubtedly the greatest danger.


    This call, however, aroused suspicion in Xia Mutong. Being skeptical is a normal thing for a police officer. Moreover, Xia Mutong knows Ling Chen well. Even he being so careful indicates something very important.


    After much persuasion, Ling Chen managed to convince Xia Mutong to abandon her pursuit.


    Furthermore, after epting several unequal terms, Xia Mutong eventually agreed to stay at the police station dormitory. There, no matter who they are, no matter how much daring they possess, no one dares to cause trouble at the police station, unless they are seeking death.


    Xia Mutong’s side was resolved, yet the biggest issue remains with Nanrong Wanqing.


    Ling Chen felt a headache; his rtionship with Nanrong Wanqing is known to most. Although Nanrong Wanqing announced their breakup during an interview, breaking up doesn’t mean cutting all ties, the mastermind behind the oil truck explosion might target Nanrong Wanqing.


    Getting Nanrong Wanqing to his home is an impossible task now. If it were before, it would have been simpler. But now, he had already broken up with Nanrong Wanqing, and his home currently also has Liu Xiyao and Tang Shiyun, knowing this would likely upset Nanrong Wanqing further.


    Forget it!


    Put aside thoughts of Nanrong Wanqing, find a way to solve her problemter.


    Zhu Xiaozhu... Indeed, ever since rescuing Zhu Xiaozhu, they had never contacted each other, not knowing her current situation. That day, due to live news coverage, everyone witnessed his intimate gesture with Zhu Xiaozhu. Therefore, Zhu Xiaozhu might also be a target.


    Thinking of this, Ling Chen called Zhu Xiaozhu. Unsurprisingly, Zhu Xiaozhu was still in East Sea City, as the hospital had a batch of interns, preventing her return to Beijing.


    Learning Zhu Xiaozhu was staying at the hospital dormitory, Ling Chen immediately invited her to stay at his ce for a while. At moments like this, other matters can be ignored; protecting their safety is all that matters.


    Regarding Ling Chen’s invitation, Zhu Xiaozhu felt odd, her heartbeat even quickened.


    Being asked to stay at his ce, what... what does this imply? Could it be... For reasons unknown, Zhu Xiaozhu’s heart suddenly harbored a trace of anticipation. After much hesitation, Zhu Xiaozhu eventually epted.


    This is a rare opportunity, she doesn’t want to miss it.


    By evening.


    After a busy day, Zhu Xiaozhu took a taxi to Ling Chen’s home entrance.


    Pressing the doorbell, carrying luggage and several bags of fruit, Zhu Xiaozhu stood outside waiting for someone to open the door. Knowing Ling Chen lives with his family, she specifically brought fresh fruits to pay her respects to the elders.


    Soon, the door opened, and Zhu Xiaozhu’s mouth opened, expecting Ling Chen to answer it, ready to call his name. But before she could speak, Zhu Xiaozhu froze.
