Chapter Six: The Beauty's Wish
Ten minutes later, Lin Chen emerged from the room. Seeing Su Xiran waiting outside, looking at him with curiosity and seemingly intending to go inside, Lin Chen immediately pulled the door shut.
Su Xiran frowned. Even though he had closed the door quickly, she still caught a strange, nauseating, and foul odor. Surprised, she asked, "Lin Chen, what is that smell? And why haven't Huang Tianhua and his two friends come out yet?"
Lin Chen chuckled. "Sister Xixi, don't worry. I didn't do anything reckless. I just gave them a good scare inside. I suppose they were so terrified after I beat them up earlier that they lost control of their bladders. In the end, they promised me repeatedly that they would never cause me trouble again."
Su Xiran was skeptical; it seemed unlikely that those men would be intimidated so easily. Still worried, she said, "Lin Chen, I think you should leave Yuehai City for a while. Liu Shanhua is wealthy and influential. If he calls the police, you’ll end up in prison. I have some savings; I'll give them all to you, just run away!"
Seeing the genuine concern on her face, Lin Chen felt a warmth in his heart. He smiled gently and said, "Sister Xixi, you can rest easy. They definitely don't have the guts to come looking for trouble again."
In his dreams, even the most vicious and stubborn criminals had been driven to the brink of madness under Leng Dongliu’s silver needles, let alone these three. Now, just hearing Lin Chen's name would likely terrify them half to death, let alone seeking revenge. The pain, a hundred times worse than being sliced to pieces, was something no one would ever want to experience again. If Lin Chen hadn't protected their brains, they would have been driven completely insane.
Lin Chen took Su Xiran’s hand and led her to her office. Once she had changed her clothes, he asked for his shirt back, but Su Xiran blushed and refused, saying she would wash it and return it to him later.
Lin Chen didn't mind. He returned to his seat, ignored the strange looks from others, and put on a spare shirt from his drawer. Then, he grabbed Su Xiran’s hand and led her out of the company. The employees they passed were stunned to see the poor kid holding the hand of the company’s dream girl.
When Su Xiran realized what was happening, she saw her colleagues pointing and whispering. She struggled half-heartedly, but seeing that Lin Chen wouldn't let go, she allowed him to continue holding her hand. Her delicate, fair face turned as red as a ripe apple.
Once outside, as they strolled along, Lin Chen suddenly asked, "Sister Xixi, do you really want to be a big-time model? If you do, I can help you achieve that dream."
Now that he could force Liu Shanhua to annul that unfair contract, Liu Shanhua would never dare to refuse. He wouldn't even need to bother the head of the Qixing Modeling Agency, Tan Hengxing. Having inherited the legacy of Leng Dongliu, Lin Chen could no longer remain a mere handyman at this modeling agency, and he might not be able to spend every day with Su Xiran as he did now.
Su Xiran had helped him so much; even the *Dongliu Secret Records* had been a gift from her. She was a true guardian angel in his life. Asking about her dream was his way of wanting to repay her. He was confident that he could help her achieve it.
Su Xiran looked at the young man holding her hand, feeling as if she were in a dream. When she first met him, he was dressed in old-fashioned clothes, having used a brick to knock down a drunkard
