Three o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhao Xiruo returned to the villa. The company's affairs had been handled. If all went well, the anti-aging cream would be officially launched after the product launch tomorrow.

Yun Chen had already packed his things, and then the two of them drove to the provincial capital.

Before leaving, Yun Chen said something to Qin Yuelan, and then called Xuan Hongying to ask her to help arrange a hotel.

As his own subordinates, Yun Chen used them without any courtesy.

After more than two hours' journey, the two finally arrived at the provincial capital.

On the way, Xuan Hongying had already sent the hotel address to Yun Chen.

So they drove directly to the hotel entrance. As soon as they got out of the car, Yun Chen saw a familiar figure.

It was Li Cang, the man he almost killed in Longzhou. He still had a bandage on his face, and it was obvious that his injuries had not healed yet.

His attire remained unchanged, he was wearing a black suit and a black hat, but he didn't have his sword.

"Mr. Yun!"

Seeing Yun Chen, Li Cang hurried over with a flattering look on his face.

As he spoke, he couldn't help but glance at Zhao Xiruo who was next to Yun Chen, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

"Mr. Yun is really amazing. There is always a lack of beautiful women around him." Li Cang flattered him.

Yun Chen: ? ?

Zhao Xiruo narrowed her eyes and glanced at Yun Chen meaningfully.

Yun Chen wanted to cry but had no tears.

"What nonsense are you talking about? This is my wife... When did I have a beautiful woman by my side?" Yun Chen's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Li Cang broke out in a cold sweat upon hearing this.

The flattery hit the horse's hoof.

"Ah, look at my mouth, it turns out to be my sister-in-law, I'm just talking nonsense, don't take it seriously."

Li Cang quickly changed his words, his attitude took a 180-degree turn, and he stood respectfully to one side.

Zhao Xiruo: ? ?

Isn't this person's reaction too much?

Is Yun Chen so scary?

Seeing that Yun Chen didn't say anything, Li Cang quickly said, "Let's not stand here. I've already booked a room. I'll take you upstairs."

As he spoke, he hurried to the front to lead the way, and at the same time couldn't help wiping the sweat off his face.

You know, his life is still in Yun Chen's hands.

Zhao Xiruo and Yun Chen followed Li Cang and took the elevator to the third floor, finally stopping in front of a luxury suite.

"It's right here. Mr. Yun, please rest first. I'm next door. Just call me if you need anything."

Having said this, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" Yun Chen suddenly called him.

Li Cang paused for a moment, then turned around and said respectfully, "Mr. Yun, go ahead!"

"I'll come to see you later and ask you something." Yun Chen's tone was indifferent, and no emotion could be heard in his voice.

But Li Cang's body couldn't help but tremble violently.

After all, Yun Chen left too much psychological trauma on him.

"Okay, I'll wait for you!"

After saying that, Li Cang left the room card and turned to go next door.

Yun Chen used the room card to swipe the door lock and walked in.

The room is luxuriously decorated, many times more upscale than an average presidential suite.

"What did he mean by that sentence just now?"

After entering the room, Zhao Xiruo looked at Yun Chen with a scrutinizing expression, raised her eyebrows, and a hint of amusement appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Yun Chen couldn't help but twitch his mouth, and secretly cursed Li Cang for being too talkative.

"It's nothing special. Last time, my eldest sister arranged a woman to protect me. Then Li Cang wanted to kill me, but was beaten up by that woman. Then he surrendered to me." Yun Chen explained casually.

Zhao Xiruo looked suspicious: "Really?"

"Of course, how could I lie to you?" Yun Chen immediately said confidently.

Zhao Xiruo nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

Seeing this, Yun Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"By the way, didn't you say you wanted to ask that person something? Go ahead, I'm a little tired and want to sleep for a while." Zhao Xiruo pointed to the bedroom, then turned and walked inside.

After a long night and two hours of driving, she couldn't take it anymore. "Okay, then you should get some rest. I'll be with you in a bit."

Yun Chen kissed her forehead lightly and said lovingly.

Zhao Xiruo's pretty face couldn't help but change when she heard this: "No, the product launch will be tomorrow, please let me have a good rest."

Yun Chen couldn't help but find her cute when he saw her.

"Okay, have a good rest. When you wake up, I'll take you to the night market in the provincial capital."

"it is good!"

Zhao Xiruo smiled and nodded, then walked into the bedroom.

Yun Chen watched her leave and turned to walk out.

In the next room, Li Cang was waiting for Yun Chen anxiously.

The last time they separated, Yun Chen asked him to contact Xuan Hongying, but he secretly told Xuan Hongying Yun Chen's location.

Although Xuan Hongying and Yun Chen finally reached a cooperation, he still betrayed Yun Chen in the end.

In addition, he had just said something wrong, and he was really afraid that Yun Chen would get angry with him.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you sweating so much? Is it hot?"

Just when he was wondering what Yun Chen wanted to ask him, Yun Chen's voice suddenly sounded in his ears, which scared him.

"Ah? No, the air conditioner is broken." Li Cang hurriedly explained, the sweat on his forehead becoming more intense.

Yun Chen: ...

"Tell me, last time I asked you to contact Xuan Hongying, you disappeared afterwards. Where did you go?" Yun Chen frowned, his voice a little cold.

Li Cang's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, he came.

"I... I contacted him, but Xuan Hongying said he had already met you and reached a consensus with you, so he asked me to come back first..."

Yun Chen didn't say anything, but raised his eyebrows and looked at him.

Li Cang immediately felt miserable.

"He said you wanted to investigate the Yang family and asked me to come back to help you investigate the Yang family's news. So I have been investigating the Yang family's movements these past few days. I returned to the provincial capital all for you..."

After saying this, he lowered his head, looking as if he was ready to be punished.

"Really?" Yun Chen sneered.

Li Cang shuddered all over and felt a chill on his back, as if a cold wind was blowing.

"Yes!"

Li Cang quickly said, "I've been keeping an eye on the Yang family these past few days and have noticed something unusual happening with them recently."

When Yun Chen heard this, he immediately became interested: "Why is it unusual?"

Xuan Hongying said that the Yang family was related to his mother's death, and he asked Xuan Hongying to produce evidence. It seems that he has been really investigating these days.

"The Yang family has been in close contact with the Martial Arts Association these days, and... they've also teamed up with some martial arts sects, apparently for a martial arts exchange conference..."

Li Cang quickly told all the information he had found out.

When Yun Chen heard this, his brows raised.

"Martial Arts Exchange Conference? Martial Arts Association? What's so unusual about this?"
