Chapter 82

Yang Chen said indifferently, and with a casual toss, he threw the tall man's bulky body directly onto the nearby Passat car!

The thick steel plates of the German car made the tall man extremely uncomfortable. The violent impact was like a heavy hammer, causing him to spit out a mouthful of fresh blood!

"Captain!"

The other few men in suits were shocked to see the tall man easily defeated, with the opponent completely unharmed. They hurriedly ran over to check on the tall man's injuries, looking at Yang Chen with a mix of fear and hesitation, unsure of what to do.

The tall man took several deep breaths, looking at Yang Chen not far away with a mix of fear and unwillingness. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said shakily, "Let's... go first!"

The subordinates felt a great relief and quickly opened the car doors, getting in and driving away from the villa as if fleeing for their lives.

Yang Chen didn't chase after them in his car. After all, there was still Aunt Wang, who had been frightened, at home. Moreover, these people clearly had unusual backgrounds. Unless it was absolutely necessary, Yang Chen didn't want to cause a huge commotion. Over the years, through all the ups and downs, Yang Chen deeply understood that although he could accomplish many things that others deemed impossible, the consequences might harm the people around him. He didn't want to see that happen, so he had learned to "tolerate."

Of course, human tolerance has its limits.

When he entered the villa, Aunt Wang was indeed sitting on the floor, wiping her tears. Seeing Yang Chen come in, she stood up and grabbed his hand, "Son-in-law, are you okay!?"

Seeing Aunt Wang's tearful, worried eyes, Yang Chen felt a warmth in his heart, "I'm fine, but I made you worry, Aunt Wang. I'm sorry."

"Don't say that, Son-in-law. Those people were clearly being unreasonable. Whatever the matter, they could have talked it out calmly. They acted like they were the lords of the world, and it made me angry too."

"Don't worry. If they come again, just ignore them and call me directly. They won't dare to do anything," Yang Chen said firmly.

Aunt Wang sighed with a smile, "I can bear a little委屈, but I'm worried about you, Son-in-law. Did you accidentally offend some big shot? They looked like they were from the government. When the old lady was still around, she always said, 'Ordinary people shouldn't fight with officials.' How can ordinary people compete with officials? If you really have trouble, you can talk to the young lady. She knows some influential people in the government, and they might be able to help."

Yang Chen shook his head, "I didn't offend anyone, and I don't know why they came. Don't tell Ruoxi about this. I'll handle it myself."

Seeing that Yang Chen didn't want to say more, Aunt Wang went into the kitchen to prepare dinner. Life must go on.

Yang Chen walked a few steps in the living room, pondered for a moment, and finally dialed a number...

The call was quickly answered, and Zhang Hu's familiar rough voice came through, "Mr. Yang, it's rare for you to call me, haha."

Yang Chen wasn't in the mood for jokes and said directly, "Zhang Hu, I need your help this time. I need some smart and capable brothers to protect a place and a person for me in secret."

Zhang Hu on the other end of the phone paused for a moment and then said hesitantly, "Mr. Yang, Miss Rose wants to speak to you..."

"Rose? She's with you?" Yang Chen was taken aback and immediately showed a bitter smile. He had specifically chosen Zhang Hu to avoid Rose, but he hadn't expected to run into her!

Rose's voice was still as lazy and alluring as ever. Even though Yang Chen couldn't see her, he could imagine her smiling triumphantly like a woman who had caught her lover in a compromising situation.

"Husband, why didn't you ask me directly for help? Why did you think of asking Zhang Hu?"

Rose's words were straightforward, leaving Yang Chen speechless and somewhat flustered, "I didn't want to trouble you, Rose, since I heard you've been busy with the Western Alliance. I thought it was a small matter, so I didn't want to bother you."

"That's not the right way to think. As long as it's your matter, I'll make time no matter how busy I am. Tell me, what do you need the people for?" Rose asked playfully.

Yang Chen knew this woman was too clever to be fooled, so he said, "Recently, some trouble has found me. They even came to my current residence today. I want you to arrange for a few smart people to keep an eye on my place and make sure no one gets hurt. Of course, the most important thing is to be able to contact me at critical moments."

"Oh? Is this the place where you live with the Empress? You never told me where it is before. Where is it?" Rose asked.

Yang Chen thought about whether he should tell her, but he had no choice. He figured she would find out eventually, so he said it straightforwardly.

Rose giggled, "Only important people in Zhonghai can live in Longjing Garden. After what you said, I feel the pressure of being a mistress."

"Stop teasing me. I'll introduce you to her when there's a chance, but not now. I'm afraid I'll be sawed in half at midnight..." Yang Chen said helplessly.

"I don't want to meet her. It would be embarrassing." Rose rejected it outright, "I'll meet her when I want to. This is a matter between women, and men are not allowed to interfere."

Yang Chen worriedly said, "Rose, you won't use your underworld methods, will you?"

Rose burst out laughing, completely losing her composure. She must have been laughing uncontrollably on the other end of the phone, "Husband, you're so funny. How could I dare? At most, I might try to get a little space from the main wife, but I'd be too afraid to make a move. If I did, you'd divorce me..."

Yang Chen smiled awkwardly and didn't say more. After discussing the matter of protecting Aunt Wang with Rose, he promised to visit her at ROSE after these two busy days and then hung up.

As for the hospital, Yang Chen wasn't worried. Regardless of whether these people knew about his relationship with Lin Ruoxi, even if they did, they probably wouldn't dare to act rashly. After all, Lin Ruoxi was a well-known female entrepreneur with connections in the government, not someone to be trifled with easily.

...

The next day, around noon, at the West Train Station in Zhonghai, the train whistle sounded loudly, and an old-looking train slowly pulled into the station.

On the platform, Yang Chen, looking calm, formed a stark contrast with Chen Bo, who was full of anticipation.

Yang Chen, with a cigarette in his mouth, squinted his eyes as if he were sleepy, sitting on a wooden chair. He asked Chen Bo, who was standing beside him, "Is this the train you mentioned? You didn't get it wrong, did you?"

"I didn't get it wrong. I wouldn't dare to," Chen Bo said excitedly, "This is my sister's first time traveling far from home. Our family is very worried about her, so I wouldn't dare to get it wrong."

"Does your sister also study in Sichuan Province?"

Chen Bo answered somewhat sadly, "My sister originally got into the Law University in Beijing, but she stayed in the province to take care of our parents. She gets scholarships every year and has excellent grades!"

"You and your sister are both very studious," Yang Chen said with a smile, "Unlike me, I never went to school."

Chen Bo asked in confusion, "Didn't you graduate from Harvard, Yang Chen? How can you say you never went to school?"

Yang Chen smiled awkwardly and didn't explain. He couldn't say that the degree was given to him by the female principal to please him. If he really wanted that degree, he could have a truckload of them.

After a while, the train doors opened, and passengers began to disembark with their luggage, looking around and heading toward the exit of the train station.

Chen Bo stretched his neck, searching for his sister's figure, feeling very anxious. When most of the people had left, he finally showed a relieved smile and said, "She's finally here!"

"Brother!" A clear voice, filled with genuine joy, came from a nearby carriage.

Yang Chen stood up and turned to look. He saw a girl with a ponytail, slightly messy hair, wearing a yellow thin cotton shirt and brown linen pants, carrying an old cloth travel bag, running over.

As she got closer, he noticed that the girl was slender, very similar to Chen Bo, with fair skin and a delicate face.

Because of the heat, her small face was covered in fine sweat, and she smiled innocently, exuding a natural and pure charm that was refreshing.

Chen Bo gave his sister a warm hug and then asked about her journey and home affairs, talking for about half an hour before finally stopping.

Suddenly realizing that Yang Chen was still there, Chen Bo said awkwardly, "Sorry, I got too excited. I haven't seen my sister for over a year."

"You two look very similar. Are you twins?" Yang Chen thought that if Chen Bo were a girl, he would be a charming pair of sisters.

Chen Bo lovingly touched his sister's beautiful face and said proudly, "Relatives and friends say the same thing, but I was born a few years earlier. We're even closer than twins."

"Brother, who is this big brother?" The girl looked at Yang Chen with a bit of shyness and asked cautiously.

Chen Bo quickly introduced him, "This is my friend and colleague, Yang Chen, Big Brother Yang."

"Hello, Big Brother Yang. I'm Chen Rong," Chen Rong said, her face blushing, unsure if it was from running or shyness.

"Don't be nervous. I'm just here to drive you today. I'm your brother's friend, not his boss. You don't need to be so respectful; I can't give you a red envelope or a raise," Yang Chen said with a smile.

Chen Rong giggled, "I'm very grateful that Big Brother Yang came to pick me up."

Yang Chen's humorous attitude made the little girl relax, and the three of them chatted and laughed as they slowly walked out of the station.

Not far away, Yang Chen's peripheral vision caught a familiar figure standing on the platform, wearing a blue dress, standing elegantly and gracefully. It was his boss, Mo Qianyi.

Mo Qianyi didn't seem to notice Yang Chen and the others, looking preoccupied as she waited for someone.

Since he still had to take Chen Bo and his sister, Yang Chen didn't plan to go up and greet her. He glanced at her and then didn't think about it anymore.

In the car, Chen Rong looked at everything inside with a bit of fear, curious but not daring to touch anything.

However, she didn't have much energy to focus on these new things. The hard seat on the train was tiring, and the long journey had made her very sleepy. After a few minutes, she fell asleep on the back seat of the car.

Yang Chen saw this in the rearview mirror and asked Chen Bo softly, "What kind of job does your sister plan to find in Zhonghai?"

Chen Bo looked lovingly at the sleeping Chen Rong and said with a bitter smile, "We'll look for one slowly. I'm also looking for a part-time job. There are fewer and fewer jobs that don't require a degree. I don't want Chen Rong to work in the same place I do. I want to find her a safer and cleaner place."

Yang Chen thought for a moment and said, "I have a place to recommend for your sister. The salary might not be high, but it's absolutely safe. Are you willing to consider it?"
