Chapter 759: How Much Are You Worth?
When Lin Tian drove to the outskirts of Luoyan Dock, he saw an off-road vehicle parked by the roadside with a training zone license plate.
Clearly, this was a car from the Security Management Institute, and Chen Moxiang must be inside.
Lin Tian parked his car on the side of the road, then directly got into the passenger seat of the off-road vehicle.
Chen Moxiang was sitting in the driver’s seat, tilting her head to look at the man beside her, her bright eyes scanning him up and down like a curious child.
"What are you looking at?" Lin Tian asked, turning his body to the side.
"Looking at your face, it’s really different from before. Your eyes are smaller, your nose is flatter. If I didn’t already know it was you, I wouldn’t recognize you," Chen Moxiang sighed, "You’ve just become uglier."
Lin Tian rolled his eyes and said grumpily, "Forget about that, how’s the Xu Family’s situation now?"
Chen Moxiang ignored him, glanced down at the time, and said irrelevantly, "Hmm, it usually takes two and a half hours from your house, you made it in one and a half this time, quite a rush."
Lin Tian felt like he was going to collapse, just about to speak when he heard Chen Moxiang say, "How did the vixens from the Xu Family charm you? Look at you now, you’ve almost lost your soul."
"Sister, now’s not the time for jokes, saving people is urgent!"
"You want to know the Xu Family’s current situation, right? I just happen to know some news, I heard that this time they’ve committed such a big crime, the Alliance decided to kill them all!"
"What?!" Lin Tian was so startled, he almost jumped from his seat, catching his breath, he asked, "When did this happen?"
"Just this morning? Hmm, maybe the bodies are still warm."
"Damn it!" Lin Tian clenched his fist, his face full of hostility. Chen Moxiang was sure that if the culprit was in front of him now, they would have their neck snapped without hesitation!
"Hey, don’t be angry, I was just kidding with you." Chen Moxiang patted Lin Tian on the shoulder, saying, "They’re all fine now, I was just joking with you..."
"A joke?"
Lin Tian suddenly turned his head, frowning tightly as he looked at Chen Moxiang’s clean face, "You didn’t say that just to comfort me on purpose, did you?"
"How could I be so bored? It’s true!" Seeing Lin Tian’s expression wasn’t right, Chen Moxiang realized her joke was a bit too much and quickly said, "Not just the Xu Family, the Wang Family and the Yue Family are fine too. But now their target is you, so you have to be careful."
"Me? What do you mean?"
"Didn’t you steal a truckload of medicine? They want to retrieve these medicines within a month, otherwise, the consequences will be dire. So you’d better be careful, the Wang and Yue Families won’t let you go easily. As for the Xu Family... I can’t say for sure."
Lin Tian lowered his head, pondering, "Are you trying to say that the Xu Family might also cause me trouble?"
"I already told you before, the Xu Family is very complicated. Others avoid them as much as they can, yet you approached them yourself. I think you should be most careful with the Xu Family, you never really know a person’s mind!" Chen Moxiang advised earnestly.
"Hmm, I understand. I’ll be careful."
"You... sigh..." Chen Moxiang sighed softly but ultimately said nothing more.
He could see from Lin Tian’s expression that this guy hadn’t listened to him at all. That answer was just perfunctory.
Lin Tian felt the Xu Family people wouldn’t make things difficult for him, nor were they as insidious as Chen Moxiang said, you could see that from last night. If they didn’t care about his comfort, they would have left already, and may have had time to fix the array, avoiding all the subsequent trouble.
"You think the Xu Family is mysterious and dangerous, how much contact have you had with them? How do you know all this?" Lin Tian tilted his head and asked.
Chen Moxiang took a light breath and said, "I’ve never had contact with them. What I know is known by everyone from the kids to the old folks at Luoyan Dock. Everyone thinks so, isn’t that enough to raise your vigilance?"
"I only believe what I see. Don’t worry, I have enough discernment."
"Alright, let’s hope it’s as you think. Now let’s go back to Luoyan Dock. You should change your name, changed face, changed identity, you should also change your name, right?" Chen Moxiang said.
Lin Tian shook his head, "Forget it, since the Xu Family is temporarily fine, I won’t go there. I have other things to do back home."
As he spoke, Lin Tian was about to open the car door, intending to get off.
"Stay put!" Chen Moxiang reached out, grabbed Lin Tian’s clothes, and pulled him back. "I didn’t sleep all night because of your problems and have turned into your special driver. Now that you’re fine, you plan to leave without even a thank you? Isn’t that a bit too much?"
Lin Tian sat back down, rubbing his nose with a smile, "We’re so familiar; saying thank you would be too formal, wouldn’t it? I said I’d treat you to a meal before, when you’re free, I’ll take you to the Celestial Dragon Hotel, order whatever you like, it’s on me!"
Chen Moxiang proudly raised her clean little face, disdainfully saying, "Don’t think I don’t know, that hotel belongs to your ex-lover’s family, and you have shares in it. Being treated to a meal there is so insincere!"
"Then you say, where shall we eat?"
"Can you cook? If you can, then you be the chef. Whatever I want to eat, you make it."
Lin Tian smiled bitterly, "Alright, no problem."
"Alright, now let’s discuss the invisibility cloak and expandable backpack I lent you, aren’t you willing to return them after using them?" Chen Moxiang placed her fair small hand in front of Lin Tian in a debtor-lady stance.
Lin Tian turned his head to look outside the car, "Next time... I’ll give them to you next time we meet, I didn’t bring them out this time."
"Lin Tian!"
"What?"
"Why don’t you dare look me in the eyes when speaking? Did you lose them?"
"Lose them? No, I didn’t lose them... just that the invisibility cloak has a few holes now," Lin Tian chuckled.
Chen Moxiang slapped her forehead, feeling a headache, "Holes again... this is the second one..."
"No problem, I’ll compensate, alright?"
"Compensate? With what? The invisibility cloak, the entire Security Management Institute only has a dozen pieces, do you think it’s that easy to compensate?"
Lin Tian stroked his chin and then smacked his lips, "The invisibility cloak was borrowed from you, and I’ve damaged it. How about I compensate with myself? However many nights you want, that’s how many nights I’ll stay."
"Get lost! You? How much are you worth?"
