Chapter 840: Love Starting from a Breakup 29

First go to Zhuang Yuan.

Jin Chen made a decision.

【Always pay attention to Qiao Xu's safety; report any situation.】

Since Jin Fu sent people to intercept, they must have already taken Qiao Xu under control.

Returning to the country now is no different from startling the snake by beating the grass.

If they only wanted Qiao Xu's life, Jin Fu wouldn't need to go through all this trouble, nor drag the young master who has never touched such things into gambling.

They probably intend to use this as a threat.

If so, at least the safety issue can be guaranteed.

What I need to do is to quickly finish things here, then return to the country and bring the young master out.

【Check Qiao Yushu's movements over there.】

【Okay, Host.】

But plans can't keep up with changes.

Originally Jin Chen thought that at least their people would first return to Zhuang Yuan to ensure the shipment could be brought back safely before taking action.

Who would have thought that after the car had barely gone a distance, the driver already changed the route.

Not only was it not the road to Zhuang Yuan, it became increasingly remote.

Jin Chen was very familiar with this road.

Before the Jin Family settled domestically, they had a base in this area used to store unconventional weapons and important goods.

He immediately sneered, relaxed leaning against the seat back, his black windbreaker almost blending into the shadows.

His arms naturally hung down, as if he were fiddling with something.

"Jin Fu really likes picking up things others don't want."

The driver and the sunglasses man in the front passenger seat exchanged a glance, realizing Jin Chen had already noticed something.

Of course they hadn't thought they could keep it hidden for long.

"Young master, you have no weapons on you; you'd better come with us willingly."

The sunglasses man, who had just been deferential, now revealed his true self with a fierce tone.

"You wouldn't want the family head waiting for you at Zhuang Yuan to later receive... news of your death, would you?"

The sunglasses man curled a mocking smile.

【Host, take him down!】

0731 had no good feelings toward this man who was arguing with him from afar.

Jin Chen remained unfazed, even crossing his legs, his tone lazy yet cold.

"I'm curious how Jin Fu dares to let someone as foolish as you carry out a kidnapping."

"Sunglasses man: 'Whether foolish or not, it's not for you to judge, but there's a ample amount of explosives on the car.'"

"Our lives don't matter if we die, but you..."

He chuckled, playing with the already loaded gun in his hand.

"If you die, it won't be worth the loss."

"Explosives."

Jin Chen repeated it, his voice low, as if he found it somewhat amusing.

"You mean this?"

He lifted his hand from under the car seat, fingertips pinching a black small box, the silver wire at its end still crackling with electricity.

"This is!!"

This is the core activation device of the bomb on the car.

The sunglasses man immediately turned, aiming his gun at Jin Chen.

Even wearing a half-face wide sunglasses, his shocked expression was visible.

He couldn't believe that in such a short time, Jin Chen could actually defuse the bomb directly.

The driver also felt agitated, overtaking several cars and driving onto the overpass.

Below the bridge lay endless sea.

"What's the rush? I'm not playing a life-or-death game with you."

Jin Chen glanced at the gun muzzle, still showing no reaction: "You're not afraid of death, so playing a life-or-death game is useless."

The sunglasses man remained wary: "So?"

"What is Jin Fu's purpose in kidnapping Qiao Xu?"

That's all I wanted to ask.

Thinking that the precious young master was Jin Chen's soft spot, the sunglasses man felt he posed little threat and relaxed his vigilance considerably.

"Young master, you truly love that young master, still caring for him even as you face death."

"You say... if that young master gets addicted to that unique product in the underground gambling den, he'll never quit it in this life, then you... uh!"

Before the sunglasses man could finish, his body suddenly shuddered, he went limp with his head down, and blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.

The hole in his chest pierced straight through his heart.

Jin Chen fiddled with the small finger-mounted weapon on his middle finger, making a sound without warmth.

"After explaining, you can go die."

He caught the gun that fell from the sunglasses man's hand and pointed it at the driver, already drenched in cold sweat.

"Looks like you're afraid of death."

"I... I..."

The driver trembled all over; the shoulder where the gun barrel pointed went numb instantly, along with the whole arm.

"Turn around, go back to Zhuang Yuan."

"No way, young master…… Second Master Jin has already stationed people on this overpass; if they don't see this car safely come down, they'll immediately come over to force it to stop……"

The driver dare not conceal anything anymore—either he'll be shot to death by Jin Chen right now, or he'll be forced to stop the whole car by Second Master's people and driven into the sea.

Death either way; better to pick a more reliable route.

Jin Chen glanced out the window; traffic flowed incessantly on the overpass—if a gunfight broke out here, it would be no less than a terrorist attack.

"Jin Fu kidnapped me—what does he intend to do by taking me to the base?"

"Yes…… he wants to stop your deal with the Black Wing Organization and seize that shipment legitimately."

So the base is now just a cage.

A plan formed in his mind.

Jin Chen put away his gun and gestured for him to keep driving.

As they neared the overpass exit, he again dragged the sunglasses man's corpse to the back seat, pulled out a belt and bound the body.

In the driver's shocked gaze through the rearview mirror, he opened the left-side door, flung the sunglasses corpse out, tugging the belt like walking a dog, letting the body be dragged forward.

"Keep driving, or the next one will be you."

Jin Chen noticed the speed had been deliberately slowed; he didn't even turn back, kept his eyes on the window, yet his tone was chilling.

"Yes…."

The driver could only take a deep breath, hold it, and press the accelerator to the floor.

The dragged corpse caused panic among many vehicles, which swerved aside, naturally making the people waiting below the overpass notice it easily.

It was just the death of an insignificant person; they didn't startle the snake, merely drove along, forming an encirclement.

"Follow the route I said—turn left."

Jin Chen looked left and right, confirmed the prey was hooked, then told the driver to keep accelerating.

The car surged to its limit, with a fleet of black vehicles chasing it down the road.

Turning left and right around the base's vicinity, the vehicles behind finally realized Jin Chen was leading them on a chase, couldn't help but open fire, and accelerated to try to stop him.

Gunfire continued nonstop—a matter of life and death.

Jin Chen used the sunglasses man's corpse as a shield, calmly eyeing the road ahead, and after constantly circling, had the driver go straight.

By then, all the vehicles had driven onto the necessary route to the base.

Jin Chen finally took action.

He took the gun scavenged from the sunglasses man, half his body protruding from the car door, fired precisely, and as the car passed, knocked out the base's main gate smart nuclear lock.

"Warning, warning."

"Dangerous intrusion detected; activating attack systems."

Inside the base, an electronic female voice sounded; simultaneously the main gate opened automatically, extending dozens of rotating metallic storm energy columns.
