Chapter 453 - Chapter 453: Chapter 284: Hello, Police Number? (Seeking Subscriptions) (2/2)
If it hadn’t been for Lin Chuan saying hiding was the best help she could provide, she might really have acted like those heroines in movies, foolishly rushing forward.
Of course.
Most likely, she would have been subdued by the criminals, taken hostage, and then used to threaten Lin Chuan.
The confrontation now was likely to mainly involve firearms, bullets being quicker and more direct than blades.
The ‘bang’ of a gunshot could mean a life lost.
Little Landlady was very reluctant to see her chairman take such risks.
Seeing Little Landlady’s expression, a look of indulgence appeared on Lin Chuan’s face, he gently hugged her shoulders, reassuringly: “Xinxin, rest assured, this operation isn’t dangerous at all.”
Little Landlady lightly tapped Lin Chuan’s lower lip, “Is the danger in your mouth the same as the danger I understand?”
“How could it not be?” Lin Chuan retorted.
“The mild spice of Sichuan versus our local extreme spice, the spiciness should be the same,” Little Landlady brought up a simple and easy to understand example.
Lin Chuan laughed lightly.
He picked up the tea, asking Little Landlady if she wanted a sip.
Little Landlady took a small sip.
Lin Chuan also sipped, then said, “What you just said about Sichuan’s mild spice being equivalent to Han River’s extreme spice, actually, that depends on personal tolerance. So, even if Sichuan’s mild spice is Han River’s extreme, it doesn’t harm the Sichuanese.”
Little Landlady was twisted into confusion by Lin Chuan, furrowing her brow slightly, her eyes full of doubt.
Lin Chuan didn’t dwell too much on this topic.
He then said, “In any case, I promise you, not a single hair will be harmed.”
Little Landlady’s eyes brightened, she smirked and said, “Then shall I count them now?”
Lin Chuan’s eyes widened, stunned, and he couldn’t help but smile.
Oh boy!
Always you, Little Landlady, finding a way to jump into this?
Little Landlady chuckled.
The conversation, which was somewhat heavy with the topic of dealing with criminal leaders, was eased considerably by Little Landlady’s ‘counting hairs’ comment.
“Alright, I need to take action now!”
Lin Chuan drained the light tea in his cup, put it on the table, and spoke with a slight solemnity.
“Eh?” Little Landlady was stunned, she hadn’t expected Lin Chuan’s plan to move so quickly, to act tonight.
Lin Chuan turned his head to look at the balcony.
Outside was pitch black, the distant mountains disappeared into the ink-colored night, only their faint outlines visible, as if in a dense fog of darkness, unknown creatures stirring.
“A dark night with a high wind, a perfect time for killing and arson.”
