At this point, Qin Xiulian immediately realized.
She felt she had figured out Ye Chen's strategy. "Ye Chen is really good at keeping his cool."
"He's clearly playing the long game."
"Now he doesn't ask you for a single penny, and he even shows you concern and care."
"I'll create some romance or surprises for you from time to time."
"Over time, you will become more and more deeply involved and eventually believe in him completely."
At this point, Qin Xiulian became quite agitated.
"At this point, Ye Chen will reveal his terrifying, demonic side."
"He will definitely have ulterior motives towards you, and ultimately achieve his goal of swindling you out of money and sex."
Lin Ruoxi was very unhappy to hear this.
She simply couldn't believe Ye Chen would do such a thing.
Without Ye Chen, the Lin Group would have long since become history, and she herself would be heavily in debt.
"Mom, this is just your prejudice against Ye Chen."
"Ye Chen would never be like you said," Lin Ruoxi said with a hint of annoyance.
"You can't see into someone's heart; you can know their face but not their heart."
"One should not have the heart to harm others, but one must have the heart to guard against others," Qin Xiulian said in a deep voice.
"Mom, if you keep doing this, I'm leaving now."
Lin Ruoxi said with a sullen face, her heart filled with suppressed anger.
"Ruoxi, your mother was just saying it casually, don't take it seriously."
Seeing that the situation was not going well, Lin Sanguo had no choice but to step in and smooth things over.
Seeing this, Qin Xiulian could only remain silent for the time being.
After all, today was the day her daughter was meeting Chen Guang, and she couldn't afford to mess things up.
“Miss Lin, I think Auntie is only doing this because she cares about you.”
Chen Guang said softly, a hint of feigned concern flashing across his face.
"I have worked abroad for many years and come into contact with all kinds of people."
"At this moment, I completely understand how my aunt feels."
"A mother just hopes her daughter can find a good home."
"The concept of 'marrying someone of equal social standing' is one that I personally believe should not be ignored."
"Ruoxi, look how mature and good Xiao Chen's ideas are."
Qin Xiulian immediately smiled, feeling a very good impression of Chen Guang.
"A happy marriage must include sufficient and absolute material resources."
"Ms. Lin, there's no need to jump to conclusions and keep me at arm's length."
Chen Guang gave a forced smile, pretending to be very elegant.
"I happen to have money, connections, resources, and strength."
"If Miss Lin is with me, I will help you develop your career."
"I will protect you like a real man."
It must be said that Chen Guang's eloquent words truly won Qin Xiulian's approval.
Qin Xiulian was all smiles, and Chen Guang was extremely satisfied.
"Xiao Chen, I didn't expect you to have such mature ideas at such a young age."
Qin Xiulian said, her face beaming.
"I completely agree with the points you made."
"Ruoxi, you see? That's why you need to spend more time with Xiao Chen in private."
Lin Ruoxi doesn't deny that Chen Guang might be very outstanding, but she really has no interest in him.
Aside from Ye Chen, she would never be attracted to another man in this world.
"If Ye Chen were here, he would definitely have a way to help me deal with this."
Lin Ruoxi thought to herself, a hint of helplessness flashing across her face.
Before coming here, Lin Ruoxi made several phone calls to Ye Chen.
Because Ye Chen's phone was switched off, I couldn't get through to him by phone.
Seeing that Lin Ruoxi didn't speak, Chen Guang assumed that his words had resonated with her.
He's a little smug about it.
Time passed little by little.
In an abandoned house, Li Du's face was gloomy.
Just then, his phone rang.
Li Du picked up his phone, glanced at it, and then answered the call, "Hello."
"The target is currently eating at a restaurant," the voice announced.
"The other personnel and firearms have all been arranged for you and will be there soon."
"I'll send you the target's current location right now."
As soon as he finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone, and a text message was immediately sent to Li Du's phone.
Li Du opened the text message and read its contents.
A dozen minutes later, several pickup trucks appeared in the abandoned house.
People got off the bus one after another; there were more than twenty people in total.
These people were strong and robust, with fierce and sharp eyes, and exuded a powerful aura.
To be precise, it was a terrifying killing intent.
As the former director, Li Du could tell at a glance that these people's hands were stained with blood.
These people are even more capable than the previous group.
"We are here on a mission to assist you."
“I am Jack, their leader.” Jack looked at Li Du with an icy tone.
“Very good, where are the weapons?” Li Du asked.
Jack gestured to his men, and soon several small wooden crates were brought up.
The small wooden box was opened, and the firearms inside were immediately exposed to the air.
Li Du stepped forward and was immediately astonished.
Li Du held the gun in his hand, his face showing excitement. "These weapons are really good."
"Ye Chen, you're dead this time."
A few minutes later, Li Du put the gun back in the box.
"What is the mission?" Jack asked expressionlessly, his eyes fixed on Li Du.
"The target's name is Lin Ruoxi, and she's currently dining at an upscale restaurant..."
Li Du told Jack about the mission in detail.
Jack nodded, then called a few of his men to head to their destination.
At this moment, Lin Ruoxi was unaware of the danger that was about to befall her.
"Miss Lin, after we finish eating, let's go shopping and then catch a movie," Chen Guang said with a smile to Lin Ruoxi.
