Chapter 319: Chapter 315: The Sealed Villa As the two fists were about to collide, Ling Chen made an unexpected move. Instead of moving forward, his body suddenly stopped, then he pushed off the ground with both feet and quickly retreated backward, causing Jiang Yunkai’s punch to miss. At the same time, Ling Chen changed his fist to a claw, grasping Jiang Yunkai’s wrist with one hand and pulling his body backward. Jiang Yunkai didn’t expect Ling Chen to suddenly change his tactic, causing him to lose his balance and lurch forward. However, those who have the courage and confidence to challenge a master from the Tiger List are certainly no ordinary fighters. In the face of danger, Jiang Yunkai didn’t panic. He jumped up, his body suspended in the air, twisted his waist, and using the momentum of his body turning, he managed to free his wrist from Ling Chen’s grasp. Such strong adaptability! Ling Chen silently praised, and without waiting for Jiang Yunkai’s body to land, he quickly moved closer, jumped up, performed a front somersault over Jiang Yunkai’s head, and landed steadily behind him. The moment Jiang Yunkai’s feet touched the ground, Ling Chen suddenly turned around, extended one arm, aiming directly at Jiang Yunkai’s neck. He was mere inches away from touching Jiang Yunkai’s skin. Seeing Ling Chen’s halting movement, Jiang Yunkai knew he had lost. Defeated by a single move. "Tiger List masters are indeed formidable," Jiang Yunkai took a step back and said while cupping his fists. Ling Chen grinned and said, "You’re being too modest, you’re not bad either. If you’re willing, your name could be on the Tiger List anytime." He was speaking sincerely. Jiang Yunkai’s skills were very strong, not inferior to his own. In terms of skill alone, they might be evenly matched, but Jiang Yunkai lost in terms of experience. He was a man who had climbed up through numerous life-and-death battles. Experienced people have a unique ability, which is to anticipate. Anticipating the opponent’s next move and then reacting accordingly. During the spar with Jiang Yunkai, it was precisely this skill that allowed Ling Chen to make an accurate judgment at the critical moment and defeat his opponent with a single move. "Come on, let’s go for a drink, my treat," Jiang Yunkai said generously. Although he lost, there was no sign of disappointment on his face, instead, there was a faint smile. True masters always possess a broad mind and do not care about winning, losing, or vanity. A rival of equal caliber is like a confidant. At this moment, that’s how Jiang Yunkai saw it, and so did Ling Chen. After several bottles of liquor, with his face still unchanged, Jiang Yunkai asked, "What do you want me to help you with?" "No rush, I’ll tell you later. Right now, I only have a rough idea, it’s not yet fully formed. I’ll contact you once I’ve sorted it out." "Alright, you have my number, just contact me anytime." They drank until midnight, and a slightly tipsy Ling Chen drove back to Wealthy Manor. Upon reaching the villa, Ling Chen saw that the light was still on in Nanrong Wanqing’s room. It’s so late, why hasn’t she gone to sleep? he muttered to himself, glancing mischievously towards the second-floor balcony. With a cunning smile, he shifted his eyes, then climbed up the balcony using the exterior water pipe, ready to steal a kiss. However, when he reached the balcony, his expression suddenly changed, and his gaze turned sharp. In Nanrong Wanqing’s room, through the glass window, he saw a man’s figure from behind, vaguely familiar. Zhu Hong! Yes, him! How did this guy get in? At this moment, Nanrong Wanqing was lying on the bed, wearing a thin and sexy nightgown, with her delicate shoulders slightly exposed and her soft, fair arms outside the blanket, breathing steadily, already fast asleep. Zhu Hong quietly admired the beauty in front of him, with a hint of fervor in his eyes. After examining her for a few moments, he couldn’t help but lean down, lightly brushing his hand over Nanrong Wanqing’s forehead, touching her smooth, creamy skin, and savoring the faint scent on her body. "Wanqing, wait for it, you will soon be mine," Zhu Hong murmured to himself, his lips curling up slightly. With that, he took out a small bottle from his pocket, unscrewed the cap, and brought it close to Nanrong Wanqing’s nose. After a while, Nanrong Wanqing’s head tilted slightly, as if she were dead asleep. Seizing the opportunity, Zhu Hong lifted Nanrong Wanqing’s delicate body, turned, and walked towards the balcony, jumping directly to the ground floor. Throughout this, Zhu Hong never noticed that Ling Chen’s back was tightly pressed against the bottom of the balcony, his hands gripping the water pipes on both sides to support his body. Seeing Zhu Hong carrying Nanrong Wanqing and leaping from the balcony, a look of surprise flashed across Ling Chen’s face. When had this guy become so strong? Without time to think further, seeing Nanrong Wanqing being taken away by Zhu Hong, Ling Chen immediately followed. While Zhu Hong was in the room earlier, Ling Chen had a chance to stop him. However, after a moment’s thought, he decided to see where Zhu Hong was planning to take Nanrong Wanqing. Perhaps by following him, he could discover Mr. Yun and their secret base in East Sea City. However, to Ling Chen’s surprise, Zhu Hong did not head towards the enclosure wall but went directly towards the wooden villa in the backyard. Nanrong Wanqing had once told him that the villa was her parents’ former residence. Since her parents left, it has been sealed by Nanrong Yong, and no one was allowed to enter. Zhu Hong not taking Nanrong Wanqing away from Nanrong Family but bringing her to her parents’ villa left Ling Chen utterly baffled. Pushing aside the doubt in his mind, Ling Chen stealthily followed Zhu Hong, keeping as low as possible to avoid being detected. Upon reaching the villa, Zhu Hong pushed open the door, carrying Nanrong Wanqing, and stepped inside. Ling Chen got to the door, listened for a while to make sure the footsteps inside had faded away, then gently pushed the door open, following behind. The villa was pitch black, blindsided to the point where not even moonlight could penetrate. Maybe due to being sealed for too long, the ground had accumulated a thick layer of dust. Ling Chen pulled out his phone, using the faint light from the screen to carefully move forward. Fortunately, the floor was covered in dust, leaving plenty of footprints from Zhu Hong. Following those footprints, Ling Chen arrived at a narrow door next to the fireplace. Looking at the footprints on the ground, Ling Chen pressed his ear against the door, listening to the sounds inside. After a moment, confirming no one was behind it, he pulled open the door. Behind the door was a staircase leading down to the basement. Seeing the lights on in the basement and the neatly arranged equipment around, Ling Chen’s heart tightened, and he quickly realized: Mr. Yun’s secret base was actually in the Nanrong Family. Tsk tsk! Had to admire Mr. Yun, not only bold but also smart. Probably no one would have thought that Mr. Yun would set up a secret base at the Nanrong Family. Also luckily, since this villa was never entered before, otherwise, this secret would have long been exposed.
