Chapter 697 - 702 Ling Kun’s Whereabouts
Ling Chen furrowed his brow and said in a deep voice, "Lin Guodong, if you think you can use this matter to threaten me, then I advise you to give up that idea. Don’t forget, your background is not clean, and I can have someone take you away at any time and make sure you never escape from prison for the rest of your life."
Lin Guodong, unbothered, smiled and said: "Ling Chen, do you think I really care about that? I know you have some leads, but those leads are evidence to you, yet they mean nothing to me, they don’t pose any threat to me. Of course, if you want to play, then I will play along, let’s see who has the last laugh."
After speaking, Lin Guodong sipped some red wine, then stood up from his chair, patted the shoulder of the middle-aged man next to him, and said, "Mr. Ling, I’ve said my piece, I’ll give you one day to consider it. If you agree to my offer and release Lin Jiawei, I guarantee your woman won’t be harmed in the slightest. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."
After finishing his statement, Lin Guodong put down his wine glass and turned to walk outside.
Seeing Lin Guodong approaching the room’s entrance, Ling Chen shifted his body, hesitating and contemplating whether to make a move. Just then, Ling Chen felt a buzzing from his pocket—a text message alert.
Pulling out his phone, Ling Chen glanced at the message and his eyebrows raised instantly.
"What’s the matter?" Nanrong Wanqing beside him asked.
"It’s nothing," Ling Chen replied, then put his phone back in his pocket, withdrawing his gaze from Lin Guodong’s departing figure, no longer focusing on him.
After they left, Ling Chen didn’t stay much longer, taking Nanrong Wanqing with him and heading straight to the research base.
Upon their arrival, already informed by a phone call, Hu Fei was waiting at the entrance. Seeing Ling Chen holding Nanrong Wanqing’s hand, Hu Fei hurried over and eagerly asked, "How did it go, did you catch Lin Guodong?"
