146: Chapter 166: Because It’s You, I’m Not Afraid _1
In the darkness, Chu Jiaxue suddenly sat up straight in bed, turned on the light with a snap, and then stared directly at Lin Chen.
Lin Chen was startled, looking at Chu Jiaxue puzzledly.
Such a big reaction?
Fear?
“What’s wrong with you?”
Chu Jiaxue said calmly: “I turned on the light because I want you to see my eyes, my face, and hope that you can see clearly that there is no fear in my eyes.
And I don’t feel uncomfortable.
On the contrary, with you here, I feel very safe, safer than I have ever been before!”
Lin Chen’s heart suddenly felt very comfortable and a bit touched.
Yesterday, he had killed two people in front of Chu Jiaxue and seriously injured three others.
It was completely normal for ordinary people to be afraid, let alone having the killer lying beside them.
This was a question Lin Chen had asked Gu Yuexi before, and now he was asking Chu Jiaxue again.
The answers from both of them were different, but the essence was the sa.
Because it’s you, I’m not afraid.
Lin Chen also thought of the mont he entered the room, when she saw the blood on his body and asked if he was injured.
She knew he wasn’t injured and didn’t ask any more questions.
It was quite touching when he thought about it carefully.
What I care about is whether you’re hurt.
As for others, I don’t mind because I know you won’t hurt innocent people.
Chu Jiaxue was afraid of being misunderstood, so she even turned on the light herself and stared into his eyes solemnly, telling him that she wasn’t afraid, as if she was concerned that he would be hurt.
Lin Chen smiled slightly: “Okay!”
Chu Jiaxue looked at Lin Chen for a few more seconds before finally turning away, retracting her right elbow that was propping her body up and lying down on her back.
However, she didn’t turn off the light.
“You went after the Zhao family because of , and you went after the Lei family for
too.
I feel nothing but gratitude and indebtedness in my heart.
How could I be afraid of soone who has given their life to protect ?”
Lin Chen nodded: “Actually, today’s incident was just a coincidence.
I got involved in the conflict between the Lei family and the Han family.
Otherwise, at most I would have gone after Lei Yue and Patriarch Lei alone, not with such a big Array as now.”
Chu Jiaxue asked softly: “The Lei family has nothing to do with , right?
Was it Chu Tianyu or Wang Jianbo who instigated it?”
“Chu Tianyu, I guess.”
Lin Chen answered: “I asked Lei Yue, and he said that he did call Wang Jianbo to inquire about my background, but Wang Jianbo didn’t know about their actions.”
Chu Jiaxue said angrily: “Chu Tianyu really couldn’t wait for a day.”
Lin Chen asked: “Are you still going to sell him shares?”
Chu Jiaxue gritted her teeth: “Yes.”
After a pause, Chu Jiaxue turned her head, her eyes pleading: “I’ll contact him as soon as I go to work tomorrow.
You don’t have to go looking for trouble with him anymore, okay?”
Lin Chen said with a laugh: “Alright, I have no grudges with him.
Since you can put your hatred aside for now, I naturally have no problem with it.”
Chu Jiaxue said softly: “Don’t get
wrong, it’s not that I don’t want to take revenge on him.
But Chu Tianyu is highly valued in the Chu family, and I heard he has a very powerful expert by his side.
If you go looking for trouble with Chu Tianyu, you might be in danger, and even if you can defeat that expert, if you kill Chu Tianyu, the Chu family won’t let it go, and they will surely take crazy revenge.”
Lin Chen nodded: “Alright, I can agree not to look for trouble with him, but on the condition that he doesn’t provoke
again.”
Chu Jiaxue felt a little relieved: “Fine, once I sell the shares, we can leave Pingjiang and put all these grudges and troubles behind us for the ti being.”
“Okay, I’ll listen to you!”
Lin Chen wasn’t afraid of Chu Tianyu, but since Chu Jiaxue had decided to let go, Lin Chen didn’t need to go out of his way to make a strong enemy for himself.
The Chu family wasn’t like the Tian family or the Lei family.
They had a firm foothold in Linhai City and were a dominant force, influencing such a large surrounding area.
Their strength was certainly not sothing the Tian family or the Lei family could compare with.
Chu Jiaxue was finally relieved.
She was very worried about Lin Chen getting involved with the Chu family because of her.
Although she was not a cultivator, she knew that the Chu family was very powerful and not easy to deal with.
She was afraid that sothing would happen to Lin Chen, especially after hearing about tonight’s fight, she beca even more afraid.
In a business struggle, failure might an losing everything, but dealing with the Chu family could an losing one’s life, disappearing silently and tracelessly from this world.
If Lin Chen lost his life at the hands of the Chu family for her sake, Chu Jiaxue would probably live in regret and guilt for the rest of her life.
“Go to sleep.”
“Okay!”
As the two of them fell asleep, Chu Tianyu, who had just finished the passionate love-making with his secretary on the hotel bed, picked up his phone.
“What’s the matter?”
Zhou Ping’s serious voice sounded: “The Lei family has been destroyed.”
Chu Tianyu suddenly sat up from the bed, his eyes shocked: “Who destroyed them?”
“Lin Chen.”
Chu Tianyu was dumbfounded, and then his face filled with confusion: “Lin Chen?
Who is that?”
