At that critical moment, Lin Chen instinctively raised his hand to block the rapidly approaching arm. Everything seemed to freeze at that instant; the two disproportionate arms were frozen in mid-air, forming a bizarre scene.
Although Yang Kun was initially somewhat apprehensive, the alcohol emboldened him, and besides, he was a muscular and strong man. In contrast, Lin Chen had never exercised much; he was thin and appeared to have no strength at all. However, reality was different from what he had imagined.
"How can someone have such strength?! Am I hallucinating from drinking too much?" Yang Kun was utterly shocked. He never imagined that this seemingly frail young man would possess such astonishing strength.
His arm could barely move forward an inch, and Lin Chen's hand was constantly increasing in strength, as if he could easily crush his bones.
"Is this really just a weakling? I feel like I'm the weakling..." Yang Kun's thoughts echoed in Lin Chen's mind, making Lin Chen feel both amused and exasperated. He looked at his own hand, yet had a strange feeling, as if the strength in his hand wasn't at its maximum at this moment, and he could continue to increase it!
Just then, a scream shattered the silence in the carriage. Yang Kun yelled, "Brother Feng, Brother Feng, help! This kid's got skills! My hand's been grabbed—!!!"
However, Lin Chen unexpectedly let go of him. Lin Chen himself was completely bewildered, astonished by the sudden surge of power he had unleashed.
Upon seeing this, Brother Feng frowned. He knew his brother's strength, but judging from the situation just now, this seemingly young Lin Chen possessed strength surpassing that of his brother.
Their strength was roughly equal. This piqued Feng's interest in Lin Chen, but also made him feel uneasy.
However, Lin Yiming's orders still needed to be carried out. Feng Ge took a deep breath and finally made his move. He threw a simple left hook at Lin Chen—remember, he had once knocked someone into an idiot with a single punch!
However, Lin Chen's hand once again stepped forward, his small palm directly covering the attack and blocking Feng Ge's strike.
Seeing this, Brother Feng bent his arm, turning his straight punch into an elbow strike, swiftly and accurately aiming for Lin Chen's temple! This strike was extremely ruthless; they wouldn't normally use such a move lightly, as it could very well result in death or serious injury!
However, Lin Chen was clearly not an ordinary person in their eyes, and their goal was to take his life! But once again, the elbow strike was blocked by Lin Chen's other hand!
Just as Feng was about to continue his attack, Lin Chen, who had been on the defensive, suddenly launched a counterattack. As if he had foreseen it, without saying a word, he delivered a powerful kick!
With a crisp "crack" of bone breaking, Brother Feng instantly lost his balance, and his lower body flew up! Finally, he crashed into the carriage with a "bang".
All of this happened in an instant, yet in that instant, a burly man was so easily knocked to the ground. The passengers in the carriage were stunned by this scene; they seemed to hold their breath. However, a buzz of discussion quickly arose in the carriage, and it seemed to be growing louder.
"This young man is so amazing, it's like something out of a martial arts movie."
"Check if there are any cameras around here; this is probably just a staged performance."
"I must have been asleep just now, yes, I'm still dreaming."
"Maybe the beautiful woman next to him gave him the motivation to become a superhero!"
While these people were discussing amongst themselves, Ning Jiaqi couldn't suppress her own doubts. She had seen powerful experts before, like the bodyguard her father had arranged for her.
Therefore, she wouldn't react with the same excitement and loss of composure as an ordinary person; instead, she felt more puzzled and confused. She couldn't understand how this seemingly ordinary young man could possess such astonishing strength.
"Just who are you?" Her voice held a hint of coldness and wariness, her heart filled with doubt. In her world of understanding, this man before her, hailed as the eldest son of the Lin family worth billions, should be as the rumors suggested: frail, sickly, ignorant, and cowardly. However, reality was far different from the gossip…
In an instant, a chilling thought flashed through Ning Jiaqi's mind: Could all of this be a meticulously planned drama? Their real target was actually herself!
Indeed, such a powerful figure wouldn't appear by her side without a reason; he must have some ulterior motive. Why was he approaching her? Was he attempting to kidnap her? Ning Jiaqi's mind was filled with doubt, as if a fog of mystery awaited unraveling.
At this moment, Lin Chen noticed Ning Jiaqi's doubts and couldn't help but smile bitterly to himself, a helpless black line appearing on his face.
"Is this girl being protected too much? Why has she become so paranoid?" he muttered to himself, but couldn't help explaining, "Those people's target was me. You, Ning Jiaqi, just happened to be here. Don't think of yourself as so important, okay?"
He couldn't help but blurt out the last sentence.
"Who are you talking about?" Ning Jiaqi asked angrily, glaring at him.
"I'm talking about myself," Lin Chen replied simply, then lay back down on his lower bunk and closed his eyes to rest. His mind was a jumbled mess; he needed to sort out his thoughts.
Meanwhile, Feng Ge and Yang Kun, who had been knocked to the ground by Lin Chen, took this opportunity to leave in a disheveled state. They originally had two more subordinates, but seeing that their boss had been defeated, they felt there was no need for them to go up and get killed.
The car continued to drive smoothly, as if the driver was also calm and unaffected by the previous commotion.
Ten minutes later, a uniformed policeman arrived late.
"I heard there was an assault on a passenger here just now. Who was it? Step forward. It won't be good if I find out." A man in his forties, not very tall but very capable, flashed his police badge and spoke.
However, no one answered from inside the car.
"Where were you before? You only came after everything was resolved. It's obvious those guys weren't good people! Besides, they were still in the car. The car is only so big, couldn't this policeman see that? Why are you pretending not to know?"
