"Isn't this house rented by you? If you don't want to rent it anymore, you can stay at my place."
Qiao Cheng immediately noticed Lin Yuan's disdain.
He's now trying every possible way to curry favor with a powerful patron.
If he could be with Lin Yuan, his life would be safe.
"Alright, let's go."
Lin Yuan thought so too.
Although he had performed a cleaning ritual, he really didn't want to live in the house anymore.
Moreover, this place was originally an empty house.
He and Jiang Rushi had already emptied the store of all the supplies when they left.
Even if Lin Yaran and her group are kicked out this time, as long as they don't die, they will come back to cause trouble again in the future.
Although he is now strong enough to easily defeat these people, he still doesn't want to waste time on them.
Hearing this answer, Qiao Cheng was also somewhat excited.
The two got into the car and headed to another villa area.
Halfway there, Lin Yuan deliberately found a grove of trees for him to stop.
Then, in the dense forest, they released Jiang Rushi and openly led her into the car.
Although he was curious about Jiang Rushi staying in the dense forest, Qiao Cheng was a smart man and knew what he should and shouldn't ask.
When the three arrived at Xia City's most famous wealthy district, roadblocks had already been set up, and there were people guarding it.
"Who goes there!"
Upon seeing the car approaching, the patrol team immediately stepped forward to stop it.
"I'm a resident here, and I just came back from Beijing."
Qiao Cheng lowered the car window so that people outside could see his face clearly.
If the patrol team here is from the property management, then they will definitely recognize you.
Sure enough, someone stepped forward with a smile when they saw him, "Mr. Qiao, you're back from the capital?"
"Yes, what is this place?"
Qiao Cheng smiled and nodded at him. He was still very friendly to people who could confirm his identity.
"Isn't this all because of that damn mirage? Xia City has been in chaos lately, with monsters appearing from time to time. For safety reasons, we've set up roadblocks here, and no outsiders are allowed in or out except for residents of this community."
Xiao Wang is now considered a squad leader, so his words carry some weight.
"Then I'll have to trouble you."
That makes sense.
After all, setting up a patrol team and roadblocks to ensure one's own safety is not an exaggeration.
Even an ordinary person might think of such a method.
Not to mention the exaggerated alarm and defense equipment at the Qiao family's old residence.
The car was quickly allowed to pass, and Qiao Cheng drove towards the residential area.
Along the way, we would see a roadblock every now and then, but because the people in front had let us through, the people behind would only ask a few simple questions and then let the car pass.
After finally arriving at the entrance of the residential area, things got a bit complicated at the guard post.
They wanted to take photos and register the information, and they also asked Lin Yuan and Jiang Rushi to show their identification.
Only after all that was done were they allowed in.
The three of them finally arrived at Qiao Cheng's villa, only to be stopped by several people.
"Old Joe, you're back? You didn't get stuck out there, did you?"
"I thought you'd been fed to a monster; I haven't heard from you in so long."
"Hey, you actually brought someone back with you. You didn't go out to pick someone up, did you?"
Several men and women dressed in casual clothes walked briskly over.
Although they were making light of things, the worry in their eyes was quite obvious.
Lin Yuan glanced at them briefly and knew that these people were Qiao Cheng's friends and posed no danger.
Jiang Rushi blushed slightly in embarrassment but remained silent.
"You lot, watch your mouths! These are honored guests I invited with great difficulty. If you offend them, I won't plead for you!"
