Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 320: Chapter 320 Heaven and Earth Net

Chen Kang truly admitted defeat to Lin Chen this time. In terms of combat power, even ten of himself tied together wouldn’t be a match for Lin Chen, and as for background, one only had to look at the expressions of the three policemen to know that the person he sought help from was much more powerful than his own.

Lin Chen smiled, ”Actually, I was really looking forward to competing with you fairly.”

Chen Kang shook his head, ”Forget it, you can’t force feelings. Were you the one who saved her on Five Spirits Mountain?”

Lin Chen nodded, and Chen Kang gave a bitter smile, ”She only has you in her heart now; it’s very difficult for anyone else to squeeze in.”

”It’s not that exaggerated, is it?” Lin Chen was stunned for a moment. The girl had just been saying that she didn’t like him at all, calling him a womanizer.

”Actually, Su Rui is a tough girl on the surface but very fragile inside. You must treat her well, or I won’t let you off,” Chen Kang said as he punched Lin Chen’s chest lightly.

”I’ll do my best,” Lin Chen said, shaking his head helplessly. He had no time to think about these things now; the most important thing was to help her recognize her father.

Chen Kang continued, ”Lin Chen, let’s find a place. I want to have a proper chat with you, can we?”

”What’s there to talk about? Haven’t we already opened up about the matter with Su Rui?” Lin Chen said with a smile.

Chen Kang shook his head, ”I’m not talking about Su Rui, but about the Chen family and the Lin family.”

”Okay,” Lin Chen nodded.

On the banks of the Li River, Lin Chen and Chen Kang sat by the river.

”Lin Chen, I know our Chen family has wronged the Lin family. The thing our family head regrets the most is that when the Lin family was in trouble, not only did the Chen family not lend a hand, we even added insult to injury,” Chen Kang said.

”Is talking about these things still meaningful?” Lin Chen said blandly.

Chen Kang continued, ”Lin Chen, at that time, our family head was in seclusion and knew nothing of what was happening outside. Chen Ling, the old man, was in charge of the Chen family. By the time the family head came out of seclusion, the Lin family had already been wiped out. He was so furious that he vomited blood, and his cultivation has remained stagnant to this day.”

”The reason the Chen family didn’t pursue you for causing havoc and killing Chen Ling and so many other experts last time was also the family head’s will,” Chen Kang said.

”What are you getting at?” Lin Chen asked blandly.

”The old Lin family head was our Chen family head’s lifesaver. Without the Lin family, there would be no Chen family today. The Zhou family has been rampant in the Capital City over the years. When Chen Li was in control of the Chen family, they colluded with each other, and we couldn’t do anything about it. But now that my father is in charge of the Chen family, and I will be the Family Head, we are willing to help you deal with the Zhou family, to make amends for the past,” Chen Kang said.

Lin Chen smiled faintly, ”Just by your few words, why should I believe you?”

Chen Kang smiled, ”We have a piece of intelligence that proves the Zhou family has connections with foreign powers, and this matter is related to Su Wentian.”

”What did you say?” Lin Chen exclaimed, startled.

Lin Chen was inwardly alarmed. He had always been vigilant against overt assassination attempts from the other side but had overlooked their hidden attacks.

”We received intelligence that an aide of Su Wentian was caught by the intelligence agency of M country not long ago and has now defected. Soon, he will reach out to Su Wentian to lure him out and eliminate him. Aside from the M country’s intelligence personnel, the one in charge of this assassination operation is also Zhou Yuan, the Zhou family’s old butler,” Chen Kang said with a smile.

”Is your intelligence reliable?” Hearing this information, Lin Chen was taken aback. He had been waiting for an opportunity to catch the Zhou family slipping. Although he had some evidence from last time, it was not fatal enough for the Zhou family. If he could catch them red-handed this time, combined with the information he already had, it could really hurt the Zhou family.

”Okay, if the information is accurate, then we can work together in the future, and I can also ensure that past grievances between the Chen family and the Lin family are wiped out,” Lin Chen declared.

After bidding farewell to Chen Kang, Lin Chen hurried back to the hotel.

”How did it go, any leads?” Seeing Lin Chen, Su Wentian asked anxiously.

Lin Chen nodded, ”I’ve found her already, she now goes by the name Su Rui and has been raised by an elder.”

”Su Rui, the elder!” Hearing Lin Chen’s words, Su Wentian’s complexion changed.

”Mr. Su, I think you should know who kidnapped your daughter by now!” Lin Chen said with a smile.

With a bitter smile, Su Wentian said, ”So it was him; I should have known it was him.”

Back in his youth, Su Wentian was known in the aristocratic circles as a handsome man who garnered much admiration from the ladies of the elite, including a girl named Jin Qiaoqiao who had pursued him relentlessly.

But then, Su Wentian fell in love with Qin Fengyun from the Qin family, and after being spurned, Jin Qiaoqiao was so devastated that she eventually jumped from a building.

Jin Qiaoqiao, having lost both parents in a car accident as a child, was brought up by her grandfather Jin Ran. Her death deeply saddened the old man, who then vented his anger upon the couple.

Unexpectedly, in the end, Jin Ran, driven by vengeance, kidnapped the child of the couple and raised her himself.

After hearing Su Wentian’s story, Lin Chen felt a wave of sympathy.

He had not realized Su Rui harbored such a heavy burden in her heart.

”Where is my daughter? I want to see her right now,” an agitated Su Wentian demanded.

Lin Chen shook his head, ”Mr. Su, Miss Su Rui has just learned of this and hasn’t been able to accept the reality yet. Give her some time to calm down.”

Su Wentian sighed deeply, ”Both of my children have suffered so much, I’m such an irresponsible father!”

Lin Chen chuckled, ”It’s alright, your daughters have grown up now, and they will take good care of you.”

Su Wentian nodded, then suddenly seemed to remember something and said, ”Mr. Lin, I need to go out and take care of something tonight. Could you accompany me?”

Lin Chen smiled, ”If I’m not mistaken, it involves one of your old subordinates, right? And he has important intelligence for you.”

Taken aback by Lin Chen’s words, Su Wentian asked, ”How did you know?”

Lin Chen sighed, ”Your subordinate has already turned traitor. This time he is specifically aiming to lure you out in order to kill you.”

”Impossible, Lu Shan has been with me for decades, how could he betray me?” Su Wentian shook his head in denial.

Lin Chen relayed what Chen Kang had told him to Su Wentian.

After listening, Su Wentian sighed, ”I didn’t expect Lu Shan to betray me.”

Lin Chen smiled, ”People change, Mr. Su. I would like to take this opportunity to remove a thorn from the side of the Dragon Group.”

”How will you do it?” Su Wentian said, eager to act.

Lin Chen explained his plan to Su Wentian.

Su Wentian nodded, ”Alright, we’ll do as you say. But could you leave Lu Shan alive? Despite his betrayal, I believe he must have his own reasons.”

Lin Chen nodded, ”Don’t worry, I won’t kill him.”

Lin Chen then made a call to Elder Long, sharing his plan. Elder Long was also excited upon hearing the news; the spies lurking within the Dragon Group had long been rooted out by Lin Chen and Elder Long through their careful planning.

The last time Su Wentian stayed in a hotel, Elder Long told eight trusted individuals Su Wentian’s room number independently. Initially, when examining rooms 601 to 608, Lin Chen discovered a secretly installed camera in room 608; thus, the individual told of room 608 was the mole.

A Heaven and Earth Net was already cast, just waiting for the Zhou family to jump right in.
