Chapter 689 The Game Begins
Lin Yilan was lying on the sofa, looking at the ceiling helplessly. Huo Juncheng next to her found a towel soaked in hot water and applied it to Lin Yilan's sweaty forehead.
"Just you? Can you catch my master?" Lin Yilan sneered and was about to hang up the phone.
Huo Juncheng supported Lin Yilan worriedly, then touched Lin Yilan's belly with his other hand, trying to calm her down, fearing that the fetus in her belly would not be able to bear it.
Lin Yilan also noticed Huo Juncheng's worry, so she sat up, held her waist and took a few deep breaths.
But Chen Xiang still smiled as usual and said, "Mrs. Lin, don't disbelieve me, I have arranged for people to plant explosives underneath the venue where your master is competing."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yilan suddenly jumped up and asked in disbelief, "Explosives?" He could clearly tell where the master was... could it be possible?
"Miss Lin, there's no need for me to lie to you. Besides, I like you so much, how could I lie to you? It's real dynamite, the kind that can raze the ground to the ground with a bang when it's lit! Hahahahahahahahahaha." After saying that, Chen Xiang laughed loudly.
She was already suffering from Chen Xiang's words during her pregnancy. Now, after hearing the news that there were explosives under the place where her master was competing, she could no longer hold back and anger attacked every part of her body.
Huo Juncheng put down the towel in his hand and gently stroked her head and back. With his other hand, he took out a tissue from his pocket and wiped the sour water from the corner of Lin Yilan's mouth.
"What's wrong? Are you scared? Is Miss Lin so timid? Why don't you come into Brother Chen Xiang's arms?" Chen Xiang said without hesitation.
"Shut up! Stop disgusting me! You're just a nobody, and you think too highly of yourself! I'm afraid of you!
"Oh, you're so tough, but you have to understand, you don't know the location right now, and I can easily kill your loved ones. Don't be so angry, otherwise I might just shake my hand and make them activate it."
Chen Xiang laughed at them as he spoke. Even though Lin Yilan didn't see his face, his cunning expression had already appeared in her mind.
After hearing this, Lin Yilan clenched her fists.
But on second thought, he was indeed in a weak position right now, and any rash actions would only make the situation more embarrassing.
So she swallowed her anger and followed Chen Xiang's wishes and said, "Okay, okay, since that's the case, I have no choice but to follow your advice. I am willing to be friends with you, but now is not a good time, right?"
Huo Juncheng, who was standing by, also saw what Lin Yilan was thinking and just stood there quietly without saying a word.
Chen Xiang was a little confused as to why Lin Yilan suddenly came to her senses, but he still said in a lewd manner: "Okay, okay, I'll hang up first. Bye, Miss Lin. Do you take me for a fool?"
But it was too late for him to say the next words, and Lin Yilan hung up the phone immediately.
Lin Yilan breathed a sigh of relief at first, but then became nervous again. After all, her master's safety was still in danger.
"Lin Yilan, I think Chen Xiang hung up the phone so easily. He must have been prepared. We should proceed with caution. You have to listen to me." Huo Juncheng said vigilantly.
Yes, he was threatening me at the beginning, but in the end he just hung up the phone so easily...
Lin Yilan nodded in agreement, then asked, "Juncheng, what should we do now? We can't find Chen Xiang, and we don't know where the bomb is buried. How can we save Master?"
Huo Juncheng thought calmly for a moment and replied, "Let's ask your third senior brother for help. He's a top internet hacker, so he can definitely find Chen Xiang's exact location by phone."
After hearing this, Lin Yilan remembered that her third senior brother was an internet hacker, so she quickly turned on her phone and called her third senior brother Taohua J.
"Hello, hello, hello! Third Brother, something bad has happened. Master's life may be in danger! He, he..." Lin Yilan kept talking after answering the phone, causing her speech to stutter and be incoherent.
The third brother on the other end of the phone shouted, "What? Junior sister, speak slowly. Don't be anxious. Don't be anxious."
Lin Yilan took a few deep breaths, sorted out her words, and said, "That Chen Xiang just called and said he buried explosives under the ground where Master was competing. What should we do now, Third Brother?"
After listening to this, Taohua J comforted Lin Yilan: "It's okay, it's okay. Senior brother has a way. Please tell me his phone number. I can use it to find out where he was recently."
As soon as she heard that there was a solution, Lin Yilan gave the phone number as requested by her senior brother, and then the third senior brother hung up the phone.
Lin Yilan hugged Huo Juncheng and shouted, "There's a way! There's a way to save Master and those people in the duel!"
Huo Juncheng was startled by this action and frowned: "Lin Yilan, be careful. You have a baby in your belly. You can't be so reckless."
…
Three to five minutes later.
Taohua J called and said, "Junior sister, we've found him. He's in an apartment in the city center."
"Okay, okay. We'll pick you up from your place later and we'll go look for him together."
"Okay." Taohua J replied.
After saying that, Lin Yilan hung up the phone, then got up and put on her shoes.
But Huo Juncheng didn't seem satisfied. He said seriously, "Lin Yilan, don't go. I'm worried about you. You're pregnant, so don't follow me. Just stay at home and wait for news, okay?"
"No, no matter what I have to do now, I have to go. This not only concerns my master's life, but also the lives of so many people in the competition. He holds them in his hands. Even if you don't let me go, I will find a way to follow you!"
Lin Yilan put down the shoes in her hand and looked at Huo Juncheng with a firm look.
Alas! There is no way, Huo Juncheng really can't control Lin Yilan. Simply put, Huo Juncheng is the henpecked husband.
So the two of them immediately drove to Taohua J's home and took him to find Chen Xiang. The car was very quiet along the way, no one spoke, and everyone was worried about the innocent person.
After arriving downstairs of the apartment, Taohua J found that there was only one room with lights on. After counting, he found that that place was Chen Xiang's home.
Although she was a little scared, Lin Yilan still insisted on following. Then the three of them came to the place where the lights were on. As soon as they entered the door, they found Chen Jie sitting inside.
But at this time, Chen Jie was not just sitting there. He was tied to a stool with ropes all over his body!
Lin Yilan asked in confusion: "Chen Jie? Why are you here?"
When Chen Jie saw the three people outside the door, he kept shaking his head and muttering something, but since his mouth was also taped, he had to tell them not to come over by shaking his head.
But Lin Yilan didn't want to care about these things at all. She just wanted to know where Chen Xiang had gone.
But at this moment a mechanical voice suddenly sounded.
"The game begins!"
