Chen Lin nodded, not denying it.
Lin Ran was taken aback. So, this was the most formidable person from the Chen family.
The Commander-in-Chief of the Huaxia Military Region.
Lin Ran's frown deepened.
Earlier, he only knew this guy was from the military, but he hadn't expected his identity to be so special. The situation felt increasingly thorny, involving more and more people.
Co to think of it, this Chen Lin was actually a distant relative of his.
Chen Lin looked at Lin Ran and did not avoid their relationship, instead speaking openly.
"Lin Ran, I am your maternal grandfather's younger brother, which makes your elder. Do a favor, put down your weapons. Believe that the authorities will give both sides a satisfactory answer."
Another one asking for a favor. Why does this world always have so many people who think their face is all-powerful?
Luo Yao watched Lin Ran the entire ti. If Lin Ran agreed, she would put down her weapon.
If Lin Ran chose slaughter, then she would massacre everyone.
As for the consequences?
She wasn't afraid in the slightest.
As long as she could be with Lin Ran, even being smashed to pieces would be beautiful.
Moreover, she, Luo Yao, wasn't soone just anyone could bully.
After a long silence, Lin Ran spoke, "Although you are my elder, I do not wish to be controlled by others."
"When they dispatched over a hundred people to surround , you didn't tell them to put down their weapons. When they fired the first shot at , you didn't tell them to put down their weapons?"
Abu opened his mouth but said nothing.
He really wanted to say, "Young Master Lin, it was you who fired first."
But he held it back.
Lin Ran's words continued, "Now that I'm about to win, you tell to put down my weapons? What gives you the right to say such a thing?"
Chen Lin looked at Yu Taiduo on the ground, who was on the verge of passing out, then at the bodyguard behind Yu Taiduo standing on one foot with a pained expression, and his brows knitted together.
Are you sure the other side fired first?
Before his deploynt, Chen Lin had been given orders: ensure no ard conflict occurs on site, handle the matter with minimal cost.
He could even turn a blind eye, with everything aid at securing the scene.
So he chose to give Lin Ran a way out, it was up to Lin Ran whether to take it.
"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, if this incident were exposed, the impact would be too great. For the sake of public stability, the authorities would certainly handle it properly."
This argunt actually swayed Lin Ran.
But he wasn't sure if the person before him was telling the truth.
He wasn't afraid of Chen Lin, but if a perfect resolution was possible, that would be acceptable.
Because he wasn't alone; he also had to consider Luo Yao and their future.
It just felt very stifling; he was extrely uncomfortable inside.
So he turned to Luo Yao, "Yao Yao, you decide. Part of wants to deal with these people, but I'm also worried. I can only leave it to you. Whatever you decide, I'll agree."
Seeing Lin Ran's dilemma, Luo Yao also began to think.
She wanted to finish off all these people because they had bullied Lin Ran.
But she was crazy, not stupid.
If she were alone, she naturally wouldn't fear the consequences. But now that the authorities were involved, if she persisted in having her own way, it might affect her family.
Sohow, without realizing when, Luo Yao had also started to care about family.
Of course, her family consisted only of Lin Ran.
Chen Lin on the other side did not rush them; Luo Yao's response would influence his command.
If it were anyone else, Chen Lin would have already ordered his n to act, arresting all these fanatics, and even using lethal force if necessary.
But everyone present had special statuses; the slightest misstep could cause serious losses to the nation. He had to proceed with caution.
Luo Yao expressionlessly sheathed her dagger, but her tone was icy and piercing.
"Commander Chen, I must remind you, no matter who dares to harm Ah Ran, even if I'm smashed to pieces, I will make sure they have no place to be buried."
Luo Yao's words were not directed at Chen Lin, but at the authorities behind him.
Dare to harm Lin Ran.
If you are one person, I will kill one.
If you are a nation, I will slaughter the nation.
If you are the world, then I will destroy the world.
Whether it can be done or not is secondary; at the very least, the stance is made clear.
Luo Yao was already conceding, which made Chen Lin breathe a sigh of relief. He knew that if Luo Yao went mad, she wouldn't consider the consequences.
"Rest assured, Lin Ran is also a junior of mine. I will do my utmost to ensure his safety."
Chen Lin hated this feeling of being pressured, but to stop this fight now, he had to make concessions.
He couldn't really just gun these people down, could he?
They weren't ordinary civilians.
Lin Ran now stood beside Luo Yao, gently taking her hand.
Feeling her lover's hand, Luo Yao's killing intent finally subsided.
"Ah Ran, I'll rember this grudge for you. Believe , I won't let them off easy."
Lin Ran nodded, "Of course I believe my wife. As for them, I imagine they won't have an easy ti either."
With Luo Yao putting down her weapon, the others were even less willing to resist.
Abu was the first to drop his weapon and raise his hands, followed by Wang Bao and Little Tong.
The people from the Yu, Ai, and Zhang families looked at each other and also put down their weapons.
Seeing everyone had disard, Brother Dao then smiled, threw down his knife, and crouched on the ground with his hands behind his head, his movents fluid and practiced.
The periter personnel secured everyone present. Of course, no coercive asures were taken against Luo Yao and Lin Ran; they were instead escorted to a vehicle.
As for Yu Paoyan, Yu Taiduo, Ai Renqi, and the one whose toes were smashed, they were all taken away by ambulance.
Lin Ran had to admire Yu Paoyan and Ai Renqi. Both had been crippled by Yu Taiduo, yet they could endure the pain to co to the scene.
It showed just how much they hated Yu Taiduo.
Soon, the area returned to silence, as if no one had ever been there.
Such a major incident couldn't be concealed. Many citizens in the capital began to speculate.
The chase video from Shenhe Road was also posted online but was deleted within seconds.
The authorities also issued a statent imdiately.
[Capital Police Bureau: Regarding the large-scale street racing incident on Shenhe Road today, the authorities attach great importance and have detained and fined the main suspects involved. Please be assured, citizens.]
A very simple public notice, making everyone believe it was just a rich person's racing ga.
Because no one believed the authorities would lie.
Simultaneously, the Yi and Chen families also took action.
The Chen family pressured both military and political circles and, unusually, entered the fray of business warfare.
However, the Chen family's approach to business warfare differed from other families. They relied not on capital but on a powerful network of connections.
Though lacking financial tycoons, their official background was formidable.
Those enterprises that had been hesitating and not taking sides, after the Chen family stepped in, also began to align with Luo Corporation, targeting the businesses of the Yu, Ai, and Zhang families in the comrcial world.
