Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 330 Mr. Chen

"Mr. Chen, did you feel comfortable last night?"

Zhang Zhou had a warm smile on his face, his eyes fixed on the slightly pale man in front of him, his smile revealing a hint of flattery.

Master Chen raised his mouth slightly. He picked up the wine glass on the table and raised it gently towards Zhang Zhou. He said with a somewhat satisfied tone: "Very good, last night was really good, thanks to your help, Brother Zhang. This master toasts you a glass!"

After saying that, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, his action showing his carefree attitude.

Zhang Zhou has been dealing with Master Chen for some time, and has gained some understanding of this young man who always looks indifferent.

Although Mr. Chen usually looks cold and aloof, Zhang Zhou gradually gets to know his temperament after getting to know him.

Although Master Chen made some strange requests from time to time, Zhang Zhou often felt confused and puzzled.

However, Zhang Zhou was also a smart man, and he knew very well that when walking on this path, he had to know what to ask and what not to ask, what he should know and what he should not explore.

Only in this way can you protect yourself and reap benefits safely.

Because of this, their cooperation has been quite pleasant over the past period of time without any major problems.

Especially this Mr. Chen, he is a very generous person. As long as things are done to his liking, he will give rewards generously.

In just this period of time, Zhang Zhou's wealth has increased exponentially with the help of Master Chen, and his life has become more and more comfortable. Therefore, Zhang Zhou is grateful and a little in awe of Master Chen.

Upon seeing this, Zhang Zhou hurriedly and politely raised his glass and toasted Mr. Chen, saying some polite words of thanks. The two of them chatted back and forth, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

After a few drinks, Master Chen suddenly seemed to remember something. He put down his glass and looked at Zhang Zhou again. There was still no expression on his face. He just asked calmly, "Brother Zhang, have you ever heard of a half-demon in Leizhou?"

Zhang Zhou is considered an expert in Yanling City. There is nothing he doesn't know about what's going on in and out of the city, in the streets and alleys. Naturally, he has heard about what Mr. Chen asked about.

But when Zhang Zhou heard this, he could not help but frowned, because he knew that Master Chen would never bring up this for no reason.

So he said with difficulty: "I have heard of this, Master Chen, are you... planning to take advantage of that child? I heard that the child is not ordinary, and there are people from the government watching and guarding him. If we act rashly, I'm afraid it will be inappropriate."

Zhang Zhou knew clearly that this matter was not that simple. The people in the government office were not easy to deal with. Once he got involved, it would be like stirring up a hornet's nest. So he didn't want to take this job from the bottom of his heart.

When Master Chen heard Zhang Zhou's evasive tone, he immediately felt a little dissatisfied, his face darkened slightly, and his tone unconsciously became heavier. He said with a bit of displeasure: "Why? Can't Brother Zhang Zhou even handle such a small matter? I treat you well on weekdays, why do you fail at the critical moment?"

After all, Zhang Zhou was a well-known figure in Yanling City, so he had never been scolded like this.

But there was no way. After seeing the power behind Master Chen, Zhang Zhou knew that he could not afford to provoke this master. So even though he was scolded by Master Chen at this moment, he did not dare to show any resentment.

Zhang Zhou shook his head and said helplessly, "Mr. Chen, that half-demon child is a hot potato. I, Zhang, have limited abilities and really cannot take on this job."

"you!"

Master Chen didn't expect Zhang Zhou to reject him so bluntly. He was so angry that his face turned red and his chest heaved violently. He was just about to curse a few words to vent his anger.

Just then, Qian Er led Song Feng and walked quickly towards them.

Song Feng's eyes were very sharp. As soon as he approached and saw the tense situation in front of him, he knew in his heart that something must have happened.

His mind raced, and he immediately smiled, saying, "Hey, what's wrong with you, Mr. Chen? You don't look very happy. Could it be that the woman didn't serve you well last night and made you unhappy? Don't be angry, don't be angry, I'll ask Brother Zhang to find you a more considerate one, and I guarantee you'll be satisfied, haha!"

Master Chen glanced at Zhang Zhou coldly, snorted, turned his head away with disdain, and said nothing. It was obvious that he was still angry and didn't want to pay any attention to them.

Seeing this, Song Feng became more curious and looked at Zhang Zhou with a questioning and puzzled look in his eyes.

Even Qian Er, who was standing nearby, came over and lowered his voice to ask quietly, "Brother, what's going on? Why is Master Chen so angry?"

Zhang Zhou gave a helpless smile, looked around, and after making sure no one else could hear him, he lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Chen wanted the half-demon from Minglei City, and I advised him not to have that idea, and now he's angry."

When Zhang Zhou said this, Song Feng was stunned. His eyes widened and his face was full of astonishment.

The situations of Song Feng and Zhang Zhou are somewhat different. Zhang Zhou usually guards his small piece of land in Yanling City, relying on his little power in the local area to bully others and he doesn't know much about what's happening outside.

As for Song Feng, he was a man who traveled everywhere, so naturally he had a much broader experience. That was why he knew even more about the half-demon in Minglei City that Zhang Zhou mentioned.

Song Feng rarely looked serious. He looked at Master Chen and hesitated for a moment. He still felt that he had to make his point clear, so he said, "Master Chen, I have something to say. I really have to say it. Please don't think I am too nosy."

When Master Chen heard what Song Feng said, he turned around and looked at Song Feng. Seeing his serious face, he guessed what Song Feng was going to say, but he still said coldly, "Just say it if you have something to say. Don't waste time!"

Sure enough, before Master Chen could say anything more, Song Feng hurriedly said, "Master Chen, that half-demon child is now attracting the attention of many parties. He is not comparable to ordinary children and women. If we want to take action against him, it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky. Let's not get involved in this muddy water, so as not to bring disaster upon ourselves."

After hearing what Song Feng said, Master Chen's face became even gloomier. It looked as if water could drip out of it. He said angrily, "Humph, you two are all cowards. With such little courage, it's no wonder that you can't achieve anything great in this life! Forget it, I don't want that half-demon anymore. Zhang Zhou, find me three more children and three more women, and don't make me unhappy again!"

After Master Chen finished speaking, he angrily flicked his sleeves and turned away without waiting for their response.

Seeing this, Song Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, looked at Zhang Zhou, and said with lingering fear: "It's good that Master Chen can give up this idea. If we really provoke that half-demon, we will all be in trouble."

Before he finished speaking, he heard Qian Er muttering quietly, "Old Song, why does Master Chen want someone again? Is he a cannibal? Every time we send someone to a place, they never come back. And I heard that someone has already reported the case to the government office. If we do it again, I'm afraid we'll be discovered, and then we'll be finished."

As Qian Er spoke, he frowned, a look of worry on his face.

Song Feng rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, "Why do you care whether Young Master Chen is a cannibal? As for us, as long as we do things well for him, Young Master Chen will naturally not treat us unfairly, and there will definitely be benefits. Don't think I don't know that you bought a new mansion in Yanling City and secretly hide a beauty!"

Qian Er didn't expect that Song Feng knew all these details about him. He felt a little embarrassed and couldn't help but laugh: "Hey, I'm also worried about our business. I didn't say anything, hehe!"

Zhang Zhou frowned even more tightly as he listened to their conversation. After thinking for a while, he said seriously, "We can't do anything in Yanling City for the time being. The situation is too tense recently. Let's run farther away to abduct people. This way we will be safer."
