Chapter 350

Old Madam Huo left in silence; Zhang Lin watched her retreating back, his heart utterly unmoved.

As he walked down the quiet street carrying his things, Zhang Lin keenly sensed someone lying in ambush in the shadows.

"Heh heh, someone couldn't sit still so soon?"

"It seems immortality is truly tempting—no one can resist such a lure."

Zhang Lin stretched his limbs, getting ready to loosen up his bones.

Suddenly he noticed the surroundings had gone quiet again!

The people who had been lying in ambush just now seemed to have vanished.

He stood stunned for a long moment, then saw Sheng Sheng Sheng Man step out from the shadows.

"Mr. Zhang, those people have already been dealt with—all of them were just some who couldn't wait."

"But as you know, people like that all have powerful backgrounds, so we could only teach them a lesson…"

Zhang Lin nodded, knowing this was Yin Nanfeng sending people to protect him.

After Sheng Sheng Sheng Man left, Zhang Lin's journey home went smoothly enough, but at the bottom of his building he ran into yet another person he hadn't expected.

Shen Qiong stood beneath the streetlamp in the complex with her backpack on, her face full of youthful innocence, constantly peering toward the complex's entrance.

Seeing Zhang Lin approach, she bounced and ran toward him.

Zhang Lin was a little surprised—this evening was really lively enough.

The moment Shen Qiong opened her mouth, she said: "Mr. Zhang, aren't you going to thank me?"

Zhang Lin was baffled. "Thank you for what?"

Shen Qiong pointed at the area around the complex. "Every place within a dozen or so li around here has been cleared out by the Wang family."

"In the short term, no one should dare to set their sights on you."

Zhang Lin heard this and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Good lord—not only the New Moon Restaurant, but even the big-villain Wang family had started protecting him?

They were probably afraid that before the third snake-browed copper fish appeared, something would happen to Zhang Lin.

If that were the case, then the secret of the third copper fish would have no one left to solve it!

3. Its 1 7 2 9 (1) 2 wine

After Shen Qiong finished speaking, she leaned close to him again and whispered softly.

Shen Qiong was a head shorter than Zhang Lin; leaning this close, Zhang Lin could smell the faint fragrance of shampoo in her hair.

Full of a young girl's youthful energy, it made Zhang Lin—whose body and mind had been working nonstop for over ten hours—relax at once.

"Friendly reminder: when we were clearing out the suspicious elements around the area, we spotted some official people."

"They were all in plainclothes, but their clothes were bulging—you could tell at a glance they were carrying live rounds."

"This group should have been sent by the officials to protect you."

Hearing this, Zhang Lin also grew a little unsettled.

Without realizing it, he—who had recklessly revealed countless secrets—had suddenly become a hot commodity!

The retaliatory strikes and violent kidnappings Old Madam Huo had worried about—Zhang Lin hadn't run into a single one.

Three enormous powers stood in front of him, shielding him!

He had to admit, this feeling…

For now at least, wasn't bad!

After Shen Qiong left, Zhang Lin finally stepped inside his home.

But someone was already waiting for him inside.

Yang Lu was hugging the box containing the eye-shaped jet, lost in a daze.

Her hand rested on the box, and countless fine red-and-white threads were burrowing out from her palm.

Desperately trying to pry open the wooden box!
