The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 476 Kid, stop pretending to be a ghost and scaring people.

Lin Chen stood on the road, waiting quietly.

Han Xuemei emerged from a large house with blue tiles and rushed over. Seeing that only Lin Chen was at the meeting point, she glanced at Lin Chen's backpack and asked, "What did you get?"

Lin Chen calmly replied, "No."

The miraculous scene he had witnessed was clearly etched in Lin Chen's mind, and he subconsciously tried to hide it.

Although he only found an ordinary ring, he had a feeling that the man's identity must be extraordinary. In addition, since the man had already vanished into thin air, Lin Chen subconsciously concealed the matter.

Han Xuemei sneered, "Three hours and you haven't gained anything?"

Lin Chen said calmly, "You've already taken over all the rich houses with their blue bricks and big tiles. All I've seen are mud-brick and thatched farmhouses. Do you think you can get anything from them? How about I bring you some of those hoes and plows?"

Han Xuemei didn't believe her: "Give me your backpack so I can check it!"

Lin Chen said calmly, "You can come and get it yourself."

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Han Xuemei coldly replied, "I'll take it then!"

Just as Han Xuemei was walking towards Lin Chen, Han Shude and Han Xuehai came over side by side. Han Xuehai shouted, "Xuemei!"

Han Xuemei turned her head and, feigning accusation, said, "I suspect Lin Chen is hiding his gains. He says he didn't get anything, and when I asked him to hand over his backpack for inspection, he refused..."

Han Xuehai walked over, glanced at Han Xuemei, hesitated for a moment, then turned to stare at Lin Chen and said, "According to our agreement, we have the right to know about the items you received..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Chen took off his backpack and threw it at him.

Han Xuehai's remaining words were stuck in his throat. Looking at Han Xuemei who was leaning closer, Han Xuehai finally opened Lin Chen's backpack.

The backpack contained some processed medicinal herbs, neatly packed in individual boxes, as well as a silver needle box and other items. There were quite a few things, but it was clear at a glance that he had brought them with him.

Han Xuehai looked up, but before he could speak, Lin Chen had already neatly turned his clothes and pants pockets inside out.

Han Xuehai sighed, knowing that his actions had offended Lin Chen and further exacerbated the conflict between Lin Chen and the four members of the Han family.

After all, forcibly searching bags is an act of insult.

Lin Chen even turned his back on himself. This wasn't cooperation; it was mockery, a deliberate slap in the face to the Han family.

Han Xuemei said coldly, "Who knows if he found something good and hid it away, just so we wouldn't know?"

"do not talk!"

Han Xuehai shouted, walked up to Lin Chen, and handed the bag back: "Nothing else is meant, don't overthink it." Lin Chen's face twitched slightly, revealing a forced smile.

"hehe!"

Han Xuehai was immediately embarrassed, feeling like he had been caught doing something wrong.

Just then, Han Xuegong returned, and Han Xuehai quickly changed the subject: "Now that everyone's here, let's keep going. We need to reach the central town as soon as possible, otherwise all the good stuff will end up in someone else's hands."

The group set off again. The four of them chatted animatedly about their recent gains, while Lin Chen remained silent, following behind them in quiet solitude.

Han Xuehai noticed this and seemed to want to say something, but after hesitating for a long time, he ultimately didn't speak.

Ultimately, they are outsiders.

There's no need to hurt your own people's feelings for an outsider.

Lin Chen was walking when he suddenly stopped and looked around.

Han Xuehai turned around and asked, "Lin Chen, what's wrong?"

Lin Chen snapped out of his daze, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I have a feeling that something is watching us. Do you guys feel the same way?"

Han Xuehai paused for a moment, then looked at the other three.

Han Shude and Han Xuegong both shook their heads; they didn't feel that way.

Han Xuemei sneered: "Kid, stop playing tricks. If someone is really spying on us, even you, who just entered the Grandmaster realm, can sense it. Do you think we wouldn't?"

Han Xuehai reached out to stop Han Xuemei, looked at Lin Chen and smiled, "Could it be that the surroundings are too dark and you're feeling nervous, so you're just imagining things?"

Lin Chen wasn't sure either; he just wanted to confirm if they had any feelings. After knowing the answer, he didn't argue and smiled, "Maybe I was wrong."

Hearing Lin Chen say this, Han Xuemei's face showed even more sarcasm. In her opinion, Lin Chen was just trying to scare everyone because he had been humiliated by her before.

Han Xuehai looked at the map in his hand and said in a deep voice, "Let's speed up. We can't fall behind, otherwise all the good stuff will be taken."

The five people quickened their pace and quickly advanced towards the town.

Not long after everyone left, a gust of wind suddenly sounded in the dark sky. A black shadow, like a bat, suddenly rose from the forest, flapping its wings silently across the sky and flying towards the town. In the blink of an eye, countless black shadows rose up, following closely behind the first one, forming a dark mass.

Like a massive army!
