Chapter 132: Follow Me

Xu Fengbin left, but Chen Zhiyuan and Qi, who had come to pick him up, both had dark expressions. They simply didn’t believe Xu Fengbin had lost. Therefore, Lin Jian must have used some other means to force him into a compromise. As for what those means were, the two hadn’t figured it out yet, but they fully intended to interrogate Xu Fengbin thoroughly once they got back!

However, no matter how they pressed him, Xu Fengbin refused to answer. It was as if he was practicing Silent Meditation, which frustrated Chen Zhiyuan and Qi to no end.

Meanwhile, by the time Lin Jian returned to his car parked downstairs, it was already 8:30 AM. Lin Jing had already left for work. He took out his phone and opened WeChat. To his surprise, the avatar labeled "Ke with Long Legs" showed two unread messages.

Curious, he tapped it open and immediately saw a new selfie! It was a selfie of her long legs, seemingly taken while lying in bed. One of her hands was also in the frame, flipping the middle finger! The second message read: "Building A, Sunshine Coast... Guess where?"

Those were the only two messages, and they had been sent around 3:00 AM today. Clearly, she hadn’t gotten home until three in the morning!

Lin Jian’s eyes lit up. He hurriedly drove out of East Lake Imperial Garden District. After taking three turns, he spotted Sunshine Coast. The straight-line distance between Sunshine Coast and Donghu Imperial Garden was less than a thousand meters. Of course, driving there still took about seven or eight minutes.

Sunshine Coast District was a high-end residential community with strict management. Vehicles belonging to non-residents were not allowed entry. Thus, Lin Jian parked his car in front of a shop outside the community. By the time he opened the car door, he had already used Invisibility.

A moment later, he smoothly slipped inside Sunshine Coast District and began looking for Building A. About ten minutes later, the high-rise Building A appeared in his line of sight. The entire building had five units.

For anyone else, finding Ke with Long Legs would be extremely difficult without a specific unit or apartment number. But for Lin Jian, there was no difficulty at all! He simply stood downstairs, cast a glance upward, and instantly locked onto the east apartment on the fifteenth floor of Unit Two. It was a layout with two apartments per floor, and the floor plan was well over 150 square meters!

At this very moment, Shen Ke, the woman with those long legs, was fast asleep in bed. She was completely naked—actually engaging in Level 1 Sleep—with one leg thrown over the blanket!

Lin Jian merely took one glance and found his nose erupting. His nosebleed was gushing out like a fountain! Her legs weren’t her only impressive feature. If Ye Ziqiu was considered the ultimate catch among women, then the long-legged Shen Ke was an absolute Little Demon. Furthermore, it was obvious that her pristine meadow had never been explored.

Lin Jian felt a sudden urge to rush upstairs, but he gritted his teeth and held it in. He had only come over to identify where she lived. It was only because Shen Ke was home at this hour that he could accurately locate her apartment.

"Besides... she seems to live alone. There isn’t a second pair of slippers or any signs of anyone else living here!"

Lin Jian wiped his bloody nose in complete satisfaction. Meanwhile, the people walking past looked strangely at this lecherous-looking man standing downstairs, vigorously wiping a nosebleed!

Lin Jian turned and left. As he walked, he pulled out his phone and sent a message: "Just you wait tonight. I’ll definitely sneak into your house, and we’ll fight three hundred rounds!"

Previously, Shen Ke had always wanted to spar with Lin Jian and give him a good beating. However, after the crematorium incident, she had never mentioned it again. It was obvious that Lin Jian’s martial arts were vastly superior to hers. If she really fought him, he would beat her to the point where she doubted her own existence.

But if Lin Jian was going to her house, the best excuse would be a challenge to a fight. "Fighting three hundred rounds" meant an actual spar, not a session of rolling in the sheets! Shen Ke didn’t reply immediately. This Little Demon had stayed up all night and still remembered to send him a selfie when she got home, so who knew what time she had actually fallen asleep.

Once he was back in his car, Lin Jian opened a ticketing app and booked a flight to Capital City. However, the flight wasn’t until noon the following day. Afterward, he dialed Qin San’Er’s number!

Qin San’Er answered on the very first ring. "Mr. Lin, hello!"

He had found out last night that Xu Yunzong was dead, and he had indeed died by jumping off the Shanghe Trade building! He had even gone over to take a look at the scene last night. Therefore, he was deeply shocked and terrified.

How had Lin Jian done it? Because of this, he was extremely respectful when he picked up Lin Jian’s call again.

"I’ve booked a 12:40 PM China Eastern flight to Capital City for tomorrow. Do you want to go together?"

"Uh..." Qin San’Er fell silent for three or four seconds. "Alright, I’ll book my ticket right away."

"Mm." Lin Jian grunted in acknowledgment before adding, "Shall we grab lunch together?"

"Sure, where?"

"I’ll come pick you up at your hotel. We can decide what to eat once I get there."

"Alright, I’m staying at—"

Lin Jian interrupted him before he could finish. "I know. Just wait downstairs!" With that, Lin Jian hung up immediately!

Sweat instantly poured down Qin San’Er’s forehead. Lin Jian knew where he was staying! At that moment, he felt every hair on his body stand on end as a chill rose from the soles of his feet.

This meant Lin Jian had tracked him, yet he had been completely oblivious to it. It also meant that if Lin Jian wanted to kill him—or if he had harbored any ill intentions toward Lin Jian—he would have already jumped off a building just like Xu Yunzong! This Lin Jian was downright terrifying!

It took him two or three minutes to fully recover his composure. He hurriedly got dressed and rushed downstairs to wait. Half an hour later, Lin Jian pulled up in front of the hotel, and Qin San’Er immediately got into the passenger seat!

"What do you want to eat?" Lin Jian asked with a smile.

"I’ll leave it up to you," Qin San replied politely.

"Let’s go get some noodles then. I’m really craving noodles this afternoon. If you’re free tonight, I’ll treat you to a big feast. You came all the way to Jiang City; as the local host, I ought to treat you to a proper meal, right?"

"You’re too polite, Mr. Lin. Too polite." Qin San’Er thanked him repeatedly, but his heart was in his throat. Lin Jian definitely had an ulterior motive; otherwise, why would he treat him to a feast?

The two found a Shanbei noodle shop, ordered two small cold dishes, and got two large bowls of spicy noodles.

"I heard the Qin family has a Grandmaster?" While eating, Lin Jian asked the question seemingly casually.

Qin San’Er took a deep breath and nodded. "That’s my grandfather."

"I also heard your status within the Qin family isn’t very high?"

CLATTER!

Qin San dropped his chopsticks! How did he know that? His status in the Qin family was low—how could an outsider possibly know? Qin San was stunned, completely blindsided by Lin Jian’s words.

Lin Jian just waved his hand. "Don’t be nervous. I didn’t mean anything by it."

Qin San’Er hurriedly picked up his chopsticks, took another deep breath, and said, "Mr. Lin, if you have something to say, feel free to speak directly."

Lin Jian smiled. "It’s nothing, really. I just wanted to tell you that if you have nowhere to go, Jiang City is a pretty good place. The land is as exceptional as the people who live here. Considering staying in Jiang City wouldn’t be a bad idea!"

Qin San’Er’s heart pounded wildly. At that moment, he felt as if Lin Jian could see right through his soul and read his very thoughts! He wanted to leave the Qin family and hide in the south. He had only told his youngest sister about this, and she would never tell anyone!

Then, judging from Lin Jian’s words, he must have guessed his intentions and was thus urging him to stay in Jiang City! And the deeper implication was: stay in Jiang City and follow him, Lin Jian! Qin San’Er was no fool; he instantly understood the underlying meaning behind Lin Jian’s words!
