Chapter 593 The Puppy's Exposed!
Lin Chen was focused on discussing the contract and was completely unaware of the danger approaching.
In an instant, everything went black before my eyes, and then the world spun around me. When I came to my senses again, I found myself with my head covered and thrown to the ground.
At that moment, Lin Chen had only one thought in his mind.
Kidnapped!
As the new heir of the Lin Group, he may not be able to control everything in Haiqi and make countless enemies, but he is still a figure who can be considered influential among the top wealthy families.
Their social status and position speak for themselves.
Moreover, the Lin family is quite wealthy and has a substantial fortune.
It is not impossible that someone might be trying to extort ransom or force the Lin family to make other sacrifices.
In fact, every scion of a wealthy family receives special training from a young age on how to deal with a kidnapping, specifically to prepare for such a low-probability event.
In that brief moment, Lin Chen had already thought of his bargaining chips and offers for the negotiations later.
In any situation, the safety of life should always be the top priority.
Lin Chen had no intention of confronting the kidnappers head-on. The modern-day corporate slave boss, hardened and disciplined by society, just wanted to quickly and efficiently pay the ransom so he could rush back to the company for an evening meeting.
With the handover of power at the Bai family and Haiqi about to undergo a major reshuffle, he still has a ton of work to do!
You all assume there are impromptu meetings after get off work, but who knows what kind of people the boss is battling with before those meetings?!
You guys don't understand, all you care about is whether there's overtime pay!!!
Thinking of this, Lin Chen sighed silently and made plans in his mind.
The Lin family's available cash flow, the funds they can currently allocate...
I've gathered five or six of them, but no more than that.
Market capitalization, fixed assets, and cash flow are completely different things!
Although Lin Chen thought a lot, it was just that his mind was working fast; in reality, less than a few seconds had passed.
Perhaps because this "kidnapper" was not very professional since it was his first time doing this, Lin Chen moved his wrists and found that he was not restrained or physically silenced, which made it easier for him to negotiate.
"Name your price," Lin Chen said, attempting to negotiate and gauge their intentions.
Just then, he heard a man's soft chuckle coming from above, mixed with the sound of a car engine.
Immediately, Lin Chen felt the car begin to move slowly and knew something was wrong.
He was being led away from the Lin family's underground parking garage.
Not discussing price? That means there's something else going on...
Just then, Lin Chen's vision lit up again, and he saw that the hood on his head had been removed.
Lin Chen squinted, enduring the uncomfortable light, and the first thing that caught his eye was a pair of military tactical boots.
military……
Lin Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then a voice sounded above his head.
"My men are all roughnecks and don't know how to handle things properly. They have offended me greatly, Young Master Lin. Please don't take offense."
Seeing Lin Chen staring at him in a daze, Qin Lingzheng raised an eyebrow, leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and said with a self-deprecating tone:
"What, Young Master Lin, have you forgotten me?"
Hearing the other person's familiar tone, Lin Chen's heart tightened immediately.
The threatening yet hostile tone, the self-deprecating yet warning manner, the chilling feeling that sent shivers down his spine…
At this moment, long-forgotten memories awaken.
I recognize it, of course I recognize it!
Depend on!
Lin Chen remembered, he remembered everything.
Qin Lingzheng!!!
What followed was a sudden, thunderous shock in my heart.
As expected, Qin Lingzheng's next words were:
"Young Master Lin, has the message I asked you to convey reached you?"
He was clearly in a stern and unsmiling manner, ready to interrogate them!
It instantly transported Lin Chen back to the year he first met Qin Lingzheng.
Back then, it was the year Bai Yuan first came to Haiqi. Her own mother had made inquiries beforehand and finally "accidentally" met Bai Yuan and Qin Lingzheng, who had just finished their college entrance exams, at a high-end restaurant in Haiqi City.
While her own mother was trying to match her up with Bai Yuan despite their age difference, she also couldn't forget about the young master of the Qin family and regretted not having a daughter of the same age. At that time, she was under immense pressure, feeling like she was sitting on pins and needles under Qin Lingzheng's sharp gaze.
During the meal, he was cornered in the restroom by this young master of the Qin family, who verbally abused and warned him.
After declaring that he would never have any designs on Bai Yuan or any overly intimate relationship with her, Lin Chen remembered making a solemn promise...
Seeing Lin Chen's expression of impending doom, Qin Lingzheng slowly grinned, a cryptic smile playing on his lips:
"Young Master Lin, you've finally remembered?"
Come on! ! !
Lin Chen felt like dying!
I had promised to make arrangements in advance within the circle to convey Qin Lingzheng's instructions and tell Hai Qi and his group to stay far away from Bai Yuan!
The results of it?
Bai Yuan had only been in Haiqi for less than half a year when she got together with Pei Jin. At the time, it was just for show, but now it's said they're preparing for their engagement. Qin Lingzheng obviously already knows about it...
Lin Chen felt goosebumps stand on end, and when he looked at Qin Lingzheng, he huddled in a corner like a chick seeing a big old man, trembling with fear.
What should I do? !
Lin Chen felt utterly wronged!
No matter how capable he is, he can't control the eldest young master of the Pei family's arrogant personality and decisions!
Fortunately, there's always a way out. In a flash, Lin Chen had a sudden inspiration and seized upon a glimmer of hope. He immediately spoke:
"Young Master Qin, it's not that I didn't do a good job, but there's more to the story!"
Qin Lingzheng disagreed.
Keep making things up.
But I didn't interrupt him; instead, I gestured for him to continue.
He wanted to hear what this man had to say.
Lin Chen immediately expressed his heartfelt gratitude:
"To be honest, I've already made the announcement, and I've taken care of everyone beforehand. We all know the rules, and we wouldn't dare to cross the line even a little bit..."
It's as if no one racked their brains or used their special skills to create a chance encounter with Bai Yuan, trying to steal the spotlight and show off like a peacock displaying its feathers when she rarely showed her face.
Lin Chen gritted his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, and said:
"As for Young Master Pei... uh, no, I mean Pei Jin, it's all a misunderstanding!"
"Young Master Qin, all you know is that Pei Jin is getting engaged to Miss Bai."
"Do you know that this was all a scheme orchestrated by Pei Jin to get revenge on Bai Yuan?"
"Pei Jin never intended to get engaged to Bai Yuan from the beginning! He never wanted to be with her!!!"
What he really wants to do is—
"Dump her."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Chen felt his heart pounding in his chest.
Even if he doesn't die at Qin Lingzheng's hands today, he'll still be killed by him for prematurely exposing Young Master Pei's brilliant opportunity.
But things have come to this point, there's no time to worry about anything else!
After a moment, pondering the meaning behind Lin Chen's words, Qin Lingzheng finally put down his crossed legs and revealed a hint of interest.
"Oh?"
"Tell me the details."
