Chapter 579: Chapter 580: General Luo De

Wei Ling’s nose left Lin Chen’s body, and she smirked, ”Come clean, kid, where did you go after leaving the bar last night?”

Lin Chen chuckled, ”Um, just wandering around, met a few friends.”

”Oh really? You have friends in T country? There’s a woman’s scent on you, tell the truth, where exactly did you go?” Wei Ling asked seductively.

Feeling embarrassed by Wei Ling’s probing, Lin Chen’s face reddened. He certainly couldn’t admit that he had gone to a hotel with a young female police officer last night.

Seeing Lin Chen’s awkward expression, Wei Ling chuckled, ”Alright, I was just teasing you. Looks like you had fun last night. But Lin Chen, T country is a world of temptation, and though it may be a haven of joy, it’s also rife with infectious diseases, and a slight inattention can lead to lifelong regret.”

Lin Chen felt a warmth in his heart after hearing Wei Ling’s words, but naturally, he wasn’t worried—Qima was a good girl and most importantly, the plum blossoms on the sheets told him she was a virgin.

”I got it, Ling sister, don’t worry,” Lin Chen said with a smile in response.

They entered the room, and Xu Jiayi, looking exhausted, was dozing off on the sofa.

Upon Lin Chen’s arrival, she opened her eyes.

”Jiayi, you didn’t stay up all night again, did you?” Wei Ling asked with concern, seeing Xu Jiayi’s weary face.

Xu Jiayi nodded, ”There was a mission last night, and I was busy the whole night. Lin Chen, get ready in a bit; we’re going to see the General.”

”See the General!” Lin Chen was momentarily taken aback.

”Why does he want to see me?” Lin Chen asked curiously.

Xu Jiayi calmly said, ”Did you fight with the Ice King again last night? You’ve stepped up twice when the Ice King appeared and also saved the General’s daughter twice, so the General has made an exception to summon you.”

”What? That girl is the General’s daughter?” Lin Chen almost collapsed to the floor after hearing Xu Jiayi’s words.

”Shoot, I accidentally got with the General’s daughter last night, and now her father has come looking for me. Could it be he expects me to take responsibility for her?” Lin Chen was filled with trepidation.

”Can I... not go?” Lin Chen asked awkwardly.

”What do you think?” Xu Jiayi’s face showed a trace of icy coldness.

At that moment, Wei Ling seemed to have an epiphany and softly inquired in Lin Chen’s ear, ”The girl you got with last night couldn’t have been the General’s daughter, could it?”

Watching Lin Chen’s troubled expression, Wei Ling burst into laughter, ”My little brother is truly impressive!”

”What are you two talking about?” Seeing their strange expressions, Xu Jiayi asked, puzzled.

Wei Ling started laughing, ”It’s nothing. Little brother, make sure to perform well when you see the General!”

Sitting in the car, Lin Chen’s heart was in turmoil—Qima had hidden her identity too well. She was actually the General’s daughter.

”What if he insists on marrying us off?” Lin Chen looked deeply troubled.

”Hey, don’t be so nervous. The General is actually very approachable,” Xu Jiayi advised, seeing the expression on Lin Chen’s face.

Lin Chen gave an awkward laugh, not nervous about meeting the General per se, but anxious about having been with the man’s daughter, and now the parent was coming directly to him. Such an encounter was too awkward.

Lin Chen followed Xu Jiayi into the military headquarters building and arrived at an office. Xu Jiayi knocked on the door with apprehension.

”Come in!” A resounding voice came from inside.

Xu Jiayi led Lin Chen into the office.

Within the spacious office sat a middle-aged man with a square face and an extraordinary aura. He exuded the presence of a strong figure, providing an intimidating sense, as if his authority was present without the need for anger.

Upon seeing Lin Chen, the middle-aged man put down the document in his hand and, with a beaming smile, stood up and quickly walked towards Lin Chen.

The General, smiling, approached Lin Chen and extended his hand proactively, ”You must be Mr. Lin Chen. You’ve saved my daughter’s life twice, I really don’t know how to thank you.”

Lin Chen never dreamed that the General would be so approachable, completely different from those in the official circles.

”You’re too kind, General. I was just in the right place at the right time,” Lin Chen humbly smiled and shook the General’s extended hand. He intended to sense the man’s qi, but to his surprise, there wasn’t the slightest fluctuation of qi around him, almost as if he was an ordinary person.

There were only two possibilities for this situation: one was that the person was really an ordinary individual, and the other was that the person was unfathomably deep.

Clearly, the General was the latter.

After exchanging greetings, Lin Chen and Xu Jiayi each took a seat on the sofa, while the General returned to his own seat.

From General Luo De’s expression, it was clear that Qima hadn’t told him about last night’s events, which allowed Lin Chen to breathe a sigh of relief.

”My daughter is just stubborn, wanting to be a police officer when she could do anything else. Ah, it really is worrying,” General Luo De sighed.

”Qima is a good cop, and an honest one,” Lin Chen said with a smile.

”Yes, speaking of which, Mr. Lin Chen, you must keep my daughter’s identity a secret within the police force,” General Luo De said with a smiling face, clearly proud and affectionate towards his daughter.

”Don’t worry, I’ll keep it a secret,” Lin Chen also said with a smile.

”Right, there’s also something I’d like to ask of you, Mr. Lin Chen. Since my daughter tends to be reclusive and rarely makes friends, I’d like you to take good care of her,” General Luo De said with a laugh.

Off to the side, Xu Jiayi was at a loss for words. Wasn’t this meeting supposed to be about official matters? Why had it devolved into chit-chat about personal lives?

Suddenly, General Luo De’s expression became serious, ”Oh, speaking of my daughter, I almost forgot the main issue. Mr. Lin Chen, I invited you here to ask if you would be interested in joining our special team. Would you consider it?”

”Jiayi already mentioned it to me, and I am willing to join,” Lin Chen replied.

General Luo De nodded, ”Currently, the situation in T Nation is unstable, and our team is responsible for maintaining the balance between unusual individuals and ordinary people in T Nation, ensuring the safety of the people’s lives. Mr. Lin Chen, welcome to the team.”

”This is the work ID for the team; with this badge, you can mobilise the armed forces of any police unit in T Nation,” said Luo De as he handed a golden work ID to Lin Chen.

Looking at the gold-glinting work ID, Lin Chen couldn’t help but marvel, ”Just a small work ID carries so much authority, to think it can mobilise police and troops... I feel quite powerful.”

After some more small talk with General Luo De, the two left the office.

Xu Jiayi said, ”Let’s head home first. You don’t need to be in the office every day in our team; someone will contact you when there’s a mission.”

”That suits me well; I like this job,” Lin Chen responded with a smile.

Just as they arrived at the doorstep, they saw Wei Ling hurriedly running out of the house.

”What happened?” Lin Chen asked curiously.

Wei Ling said anxiously, ”A bunch of thugs came to the bar and injured many of our staff. I need to handle it.”

”Thugs? It seems these guys really don’t learn their lesson,” Lin Chen’s gaze hardened. It was likely those were the same people from yesterday.

”Ling, I’ll go with you,” Lin Chen said with a cold look in his eyes.
