Soft or Hard Food?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>_1 She’s actually angry!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen explained with a smile, “I was helping Xu Bin with something, so I happened to take care of this favor in passing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why bother you with it again?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying hummed, “You’re really being reserved with me, huh.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said with a laugh, “I have to maintain my independent and outstanding character so that I can have manly charm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If I come to you for help whenever I encounter a problem, wouldn’t I become someone who can only depend on others?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that point, forget liking me, we probably wouldn’t even be friends, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying laughed, “You just keep praising yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if someone like you has the ability, I can totally tolerate them being a bit of a moocher.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dream on!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen joked around for a bit and then half-seriously, half-jokingly glossed over the topic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying was amazed, “You’re really something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You just arrived in Linhai not long ago, and you’ve already established good relationships with so many people- the Leng family, Xu Family…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said with a laugh, “This is the advantage of being a good doctor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how powerful your family is, as long as you are human, you will encounter birth, aging, sickness, and death and need a doctor’s help.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This gives us opportunities to establish relationships.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying asked curiously, “Did Xu Bin come to you for treatment?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen naturally wouldn’t reveal Xu Bin’s privacy and casually made up a story, “He had some problems with his body due to his cultivation, so I gave him acupuncture to adjust it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying asked, “Nothing serious, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No problem, a few sessions of acupuncture and taking some medicine will do the trick.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen laughed and brought the topic back, “Since you offered to help with this, I owe you a favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can make a request of me, and as long as it’s within my ability, I’ll help you with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How about that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying was quite satisfied, “That’s pretty proactive of you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, let’s do that.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen tentatively asked, “How’s the relationship between the Zuo family and the Chu family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying replied, “It’s just average.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s no deep enmity or strong alliance involved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why, are you thinking of going against the Chu family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen asked with a smile, “How did you get your brother involved with the raw materials?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying laughed, “I just said I was helping a friend with a small favor, it wasn’t a big deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My brother solved it with just a phone call.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen chuckled, “Your brother really helped a lot with this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why don’t you set up a meal with your brother sometime?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’d like to thank him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying huffed, “He doesn’t even know you, and he only helped because of me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What do you care about him for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you want to treat someone to a meal, why not treat me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen joked lightly, “I can treat you whenever!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I want to expand my circle of friends, so I’ll have people to ask for help when I run into trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying was very smart and immediately realized Lin Chen’s insistence on inviting her brother to dinner, “Do you have something you need from my brother?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen admitted, “Yes, on one hand, I want to express my gratitude, and on the other hand, I have a collaboration I want to discuss with him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying asked, “Are you serious?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, I’m serious.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Yingying readily agreed, “Okay, I’ll ask him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you free tonight?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen didn’t have any plans recently, so he replied, “Not tonight, but I’m free any other time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, I’ll let you know when I’ve asked.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During the dinner that night, everyone didn’t talk about any collaboration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They just drank and bragged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The collaboration would have to wait until both parties had discussed it with their families and made an agreement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Tianyu hung up the phone, his face showing a hint of heaviness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked into the living room, where his father Chu Songfeng was sitting on the sofa watching TV.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Songfeng glanced at him and asked indifferently, “What’s the matter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Tianyu sat down opposite Chu Songfeng, “I cut off the raw materials for Chu Jiaxue’s pharmaceutical factory, but just got a call that Zuo Lin suddenly intervened and bought all the raw materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I expected, he should be buying it for Chu Jiaxue and has solved her problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Songfeng frowned, “How does Chu Jiaxue know Zuo Lin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did Zuo Lin take a liking to Chu Jiaxue?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Tianyu shook his head, “Lately, Chu Jiaxue has been busy with the pharmaceutical factory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She probably doesn’t have time to expand her social circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, they didn’t originally belong to the same world, and it’s not easy to connect with each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zuo Lin isn’t someone who would be blinded by a pretty woman…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Songfeng smiled, “Since we don’t know, why not call and ask?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>See what they have to say and decide what to do.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Tianyu nodded, “Alright!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Tianyu took out his mobile phone and called Zuo Lin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a brief exchange, he hung up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He said he doesn’t know Chu Jiaxue, and it was his sister Zuo Yingying who asked him to help a friend, but he doesn’t know exactly who it was for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also said he didn’t know the Chu family was involved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obviously, it’s nonsense…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Songfeng laughed, “Since he doesn’t want to confront us directly, at least leave some room for maneuver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that the Zuo family is involved, let this matter go, and find another way to deal with it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Tianyu pondered, “It seems all the key issues still lie with Lin Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without Lin Chen’s help, Chu Jiaxue is nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as we get rid of Lin Chen, cleaning up Chu Jiaxue would be a simple matter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Songfeng nodded, “I wanted to remind you earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if you ruin Chu Jiaxue’s factory, it won’t matter as long as Lin Chen is still around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This approach was wrong in the first place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that you understand the key point, go solve the problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Think of a way to see how you can set up Lin Chen in a deadly trap and dispose of him once and for all!”\u003C\u002Fp>",1087,"2026-06-06T01:51:32.142Z",1,"novelbin.me","42aed36127919eacee4f1212e519705cb2c4c5bb9ec59a4655edd2bd851bc379","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-252","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-500",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
