Chapter 389: 146, you are Chen Shanhe, I am Lin Mo!!_2
After a mont of contemplation, Qian Sheng said with a face full of eagerness, “Elder Wang, we’ve all indeed heard about it, and to sacrifice for you is their honor.”
They say that one could simply call him Elder Wang, but who would dare take it literally?
In any case, Qian Sheng didn’t have the guts.
“Those are all empty words.” Chen Shanhe shook his head, saying straightforwardly, “No one wants to die; they didn’t want to die either. Yuanbai didn’t even believe. right up to his death, that I would abandon them.”
“But what I did, I have a clear conscience about, do you know why?”
Qian Sheng shook his head, puzzled.
“Because in that situation, saving them would have ant harming them.”
“If I hadn’t killed them and they’d fallen into certain people’s hands, how many more would have beco involved?”
Chen Shanhe put on his sneakers, stretched his limbs, and said, “The more people that beco involved, the faster our Chen Family will fall. What then of their families?”
“As long as I’m here, I can provide their surviving parents with the best elderly care, their partners with the most respectable jobs, their children with the best schools, and their families with the best dical care.”
“If I were gone, who would ensure all this?”
If these were just grandiose promises never fulfilled, surely no one would believe them, nor would anyone give their lives for Chen Shanhe.
The key was that everything Chen Shanhe said was true; even now, when he had been reduced to a fugitive, the treatnt of his loyal followers hadn’t diminished in the slightest.
Simply comparing employee benefits, Chen Shanhe truly didn’t fall short of any corporation.
His own lifestyle was not extravagant; his commute was always by ordinary business car, he didn’t indulge in gambling or won, and his favorite hobby, fishing, wasn’t a costly sport.
At least for him, the expense of fishing was almost negligible.
And the money he saved was all spent on maintaining his network of connections and looking after his elite n.
Chen Shanhe understood deeply one principle: if he took care of both superiors and subordinates, then as long as they didn’t fall, he would never fall.
This was indeed the case.
Even with such a significant incident occurring, the number of people willing to follow him hadn’t decreased at all.
Chen Shanhe looked at Qian Sheng, smiled slightly, and asked in a friendly manner, “If one day, you too might have to sacrifice for the group, but your sacrifice could exchange for your family’s everlasting happiness and stability, tell , would you be willing?”
Qian Sheng suddenly knelt on one knee, his expression as devout as an ancient loyal warrior: “Elder Wang, please be assured, everything I have now is because of you; whenever you need , I am willing to go through fire and water for you, without hesitation.”
Chen Shanhe nodded in satisfaction and smiled, “Jinghua has made friendships with remarkable people who share life and death earnestly. Good, I have indeed not misjudged you all.”
“However, rest assured, unless it’s absolutely necessary, I can’t bear to abandon any of you, my most loyal soldiers.”
“Stand up.”
“I’m going out for so exercise. Continue with the original plan, keep an eye on every entrance and exit of Northern Sea City; there is a high chance Lin Mo will show up these next few days.”
Qian Sheng got up and said respectfully, “Elder Wang, I’ll find soone to accompany you on your morning run.”
“No need, I’ve disguised myself; it won’t be so easy for people to recognize .” Chen Shanhe pushed open the room door, turned his back to Qian Sheng, and said with a laugh, “From now on, if you see outside, just treat as an ordinary old man.”
Having said that,
Chen Shanhe left the room, arrived at the elevator door, pressed the down button, and started to flex his joints.
After all, he was getting on in years, and although he had a good routine, so minor ailnts had started to bother him.
Ding.
The elevator doors opened, and Chen Shanhe stepped in. He had gone down just one floor when the elevator doors opened again, and standing at the door was a man in his thirties, tall and trim, with fair skin, who was also dressed in workout gear.
As a coincidence, the colors of their clothes were quite similar; at first glance, looked like father and son heading out to exercise together.
They looked at each other and sized one another up.
Chen Shanhe was sowhat surprised; it was still very early, and most people wouldn’t get up at this hour to exercise.
Under Chen Shanhe’s gaze, the young man stepped into the elevator, nodded slightly, greeting him in passing.
Shortly, the elevator doors closed.
Chen Shanhe said, “Young man, going for a morning run?”
The young man entering the elevator was none other than Lin Mo, who was out for so activity and planning to buy breakfast and local products.
Noticing the man in the elevator had co down from above, Lin Mo also couldn’t help but wonder.
When he had bought the flat, he made sure to inquire thoroughly, and he knew that the floors above were usually unoccupied and that the owner was a middle-aged man in his forties nad Qian Sheng.
So how co there was soone there now?
However, even if Lin Mo was incredibly clever, he could never have guessed that the elderly man standing before him was Chen Shanhe, the sa man who was determined to kill him and whom he too was determined to kill.
Lin Mo smiled and nodded, “Yeah, just going out for so exercise. Do you live upstairs, elder? I thought the place was vacant. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before.”
“Yes, you haven’t, I’ve just co back,” Chen Shanhe responded politely, “I’ve been doing business in Mauritius, and now that I’m older, I’ve co back to retire.”
Lin Mo smiled and nodded, not saying anything further.
Chen Shanhe didn’t speak again either.
They were strangers, and even though they were neighbors, a greeting was enough; there wasn’t much else to talk about.
Besides, they both had secrets to keep, after all, both were out in disguise.
