Comprehension Ability: Creating the Five Thunders Technique in Reality-Chapter 1106 - 556: He Dares Refuse? (Part 2)

The news shocked both Lin Beichen and Wild Ox, making them feel serious about the situation. They realized that this matter was not simple and might involve bigger issues.

Xia Luyao and others arrived one after another, and after some discussion, they decided to temporarily take over the case for investigation. Although they were still on vacation, as responsible warriors, they couldn't ignore it. However, Xia Luyao's application ultimately did not receive approval.

The higher-ups believed they should rest well and not worry about other matters. As for the virus issue, colleagues from Port City would handle it. This result left Xia Luyao feeling very frustrated and angry, feeling ignored.

Lin Beichen, on the other hand, accepted the result calmly without much emotional upheaval. He continued living his life, occasionally observing the Port City colleagues' capture actions.

At an observation site in a bar, he unexpectedly recognized a familiar face—the woman in server attire was someone he once knew.

After some inquiries and confirmation, Lin Beichen finally remembered the identity of the woman.

However, he did not feel any significant emotional fluctuation because of it; he simply greeted her lightly and left the scene.

Though the night in Port City carried a hint of chill, Lin Beichen's heart was fervent. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

An unexpected encounter made him meet his old junior high schoolmate Zhao Lili again. Her appearance seemed to reveal a sealed memory, adding new ripples to Lin Beichen's life.

Looking at Zhao Lili's familiar yet strange face, Lin Beichen couldn't help but feel emotional. Their former classmate, now facing such a plight. He couldn't turn a blind eye and decided to offer help.

"Are you okay?" After leaving the bar with Zhao Lili, Lin Beichen asked concernedly.

Zhao Lili responded with a bitter smile and showed Lin Beichen the birthmark on her wrist. It was a unique seal but had brought her endless trouble. She recounted her experiences, those days of being traced and harassed left her exhausted.

Upon hearing this, Lin Beichen's eyes flashed with anger. He couldn't imagine that this seemingly gentle girl had gone through so many hardships. He took a deep breath, calmed his emotions, then said, "Don't worry, since we've met, I'll help you."

They first went to a clothing store and got Zhao Lili a new outfit. Then, Lin Beichen took her to a real estate agency, hoping to find her a safe place to stay. At the agency, they faced some misunderstandings and cold stares, but Lin Beichen didn't mind these; his focus was entirely on helping Zhao Lili.

Outside Guilan District, they encountered an uninvited guest—Sun Ningzhou. This seemingly wealthy second-generation showed up with a reek of wealth and arrogance. His appearance instantly tensed the previously peaceful atmosphere.

Sun Ningzhou spotted Zhao Lili right away, walked over with a refined small box in his hand. He went down on one knee, proposing to Zhao Lili; the dazzling diamond ring shimmered in the sun. However, Zhao Lili merely looked at him coldly, her eyes filled with disgust and fear.

Lin Beichen stood aside, observing coldly. He saw the greed and possessiveness in Sun Ningzhou's eyes, and also the helplessness and plea in Zhao Lili's eyes. He knew he had to step up.

"Sun Ningzhou, do you think having money allows you to do whatever you want?" Lin Beichen spoke coldly, "Do you think using this method will get you what you desire?"

Sun Ningzhou paused, evidently surprised someone dared to speak to him like that. He looked up at Lin Beichen, momentarily showing a sinister look in his eyes. However, Lin Beichen met his gaze fearlessly, seemingly wanting to see through his soul.

"Who are you? Why are you meddling in my affairs?" Sun Ningzhou said angrily.

"Who I am doesn't matter." Lin Beichen replied calmly, "What matters is, you can't force someone to do something she doesn't want to do."

Saying this, he took Zhao Lili's hand and walked away. He knew the farce was over. Sun Ningzhou stayed frozen, watching their backs fade into the distance. The diamond ring in his hand gleamed in the sunlight, failing to catch Zhao Lili's attention.

"You think you've won?" Sun Ningzhou gritted his teeth, "We'll see about that!" But his voice was drowned out by the wind, with no response.

"Seems like this despicable brother is the culprit who forced you to flee to Port City for refuge, being relentless and maliciously defaming you?" Zhao Lili nodded slightly, a trace of helplessness in her eyes, "Yes, it's him."

Lin Beichen looked at Sun Ningzhou, a mocking smile tugging at his lips, "I say, one should have boundaries, even chasing girls has limits. Guys like you, unscrupulous and despicable, are the epitome of scum."

He pointed at Sun Ningzhou, his tone full of disdain, "I despise scum like you. So, be sensible and get lost, don't be an eyesore here."

Sun Ningzhou's face changed suddenly, he glared at Lin Beichen, "What did you say? Dare to say it again!"

"What? Hearing problems?" Lin Beichen smirked contemptuously, "Then I'll say it again, get far away, scum!"

There was an uproar around them, people looking at Lin Beichen with strange eyes. Nobody expected this seemingly ordinary young man would dare openly call Sun Ningzhou names.

The bikini girl and the leather pants girl widened their eyes in disbelief at the scene. They thought Sun Ningzhou would immediately get furious and punish Lin Beichen severely. Yet, to their surprise, Sun Ningzhou didn't act immediately.

He took a deep breath, trying to calm his burning anger, then looked up at Lin Beichen, his eyes showing a hint of cold ruthlessness, "Very well, you've successfully angered me. Now, I'll give you a chance, kneel down immediately and apologize. Otherwise, I'll show you what regret truly means."

Lin Beichen laughed coldly at this, "Apologize? You must be dreaming. I'm telling you, even if you were a king, don't dream of making me bow."

Sun Ningzhou shook with anger, he roared, about to rush toward Lin Beichen. However, at this moment, Zhao Lili suddenly grabbed his sleeve.

"Sun Ningzhou, enough!" Zhao Lili shouted bravely, "All this is your fault, you left me no way out. Now what more do you want? Do you really want to drive me to death?"

Sun Ningzhou hesitated, not expecting Zhao Lili to speak up for Lin Beichen at this time. He turned to look at Zhao Lili, complex emotions flickering in his eyes.

"Lili, you…" Sun Ningzhou started but was cut off by Zhao Lili.

"Don't call me Lili, we're not close." Zhao Lili said coldly, "Sun Ningzhou, I'm telling you, even if the world had only you left as a man, I wouldn't be with you. Because you're not worthy!"

After saying this, Zhao Lili turned and walked to Lin Beichen, hugging him tightly. She showed her stance through her actions, giving Lin Beichen the strongest support.

Lin Beichen felt Zhao Lili's warmth and determination, a warm current surged through his heart. He gently patted Zhao Lili's back, signaling her not to worry. Then, he looked up at Sun Ningzhou, his eyes gleaming coldly.

"Sun Ningzhou, do you have anything else to say?" Lin Beichen asked coldly.

Sun Ningzhou watched Lin Beichen and Zhao Lili, his face dark with anger and unwillingness. He knew he had completely lost face today, and staying longer was meaningless.
