Chapter 571: Business Opportunity
"Of course I know." Zhou Rui squinted her eyes, revealing a brilliant smile. Her lips curled slightly as she said with a smile, "Zhou Kai and the others were arrested by the Armed Police, so naturally, you have to go to the Armed Police Brigade to get them out. If I can't even guess what you're thinking, then my childhood friendship with you would have been for nothing."
"Alright." Lin Chuan said helplessly.
"So, take me with you." Zhou Rui said with a smile.
"No, it's too dangerous to go there." Lin Chuan shook his head.
"It's okay." Zhou Rui shook her head and said, "I'll just watch from a distance, isn't that alright?"
Zhou Rui almost begged Lin Chuan with her eyes. For someone as bold as Zhou Rui, it was not simple for her to plead with someone like this. This was enough to prove how important Lin Chuan was to her.
Lin Chuan hesitated for a moment, thought it over, and then said, "Fine, but you absolutely cannot act rashly, alright?"
"Don't worry, I definitely won't do anything rash." Zhou Rui nodded eagerly.
Afterward, Lin Chuan jumped into the jeep, Zhou Rui excitedly dove into the passenger seat. Once seated, Zhou Rui looked around at the scenery, and for a brief moment, she became lost in thought. This momentary lapse revealed her true feelings.
She got up early in the morning, dressed carefully, and put on her favorite clothes before she headed to Lin Chuan's house.
Lin Chuan had no idea that this girl was harboring such complex thoughts, and he drove straight toward their destination.
As soon as the car arrived at the factory gate, three Feixiang Company's Jinbei vans had already stopped there. Dozens of brothers had gathered at the factory entrance, most of whom were young employees from Changlin Factory. Now, during a critical moment of life and death for Jvyi Gang, how could they back down? Especially with Lin Chuan stepping forward, they were more determined than ever to follow him and rescue Zhou Kai and the others.
Lin Chuan's car drove up to the factory entrance.
All the people got up spontaneously and stood up straight. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Lin Chuan.
"Brother Chuan." The crowd stood up one after another.
"What's all this about?" Lin Chuan was puzzled, looking at the brothers in front of him with confusion.
"Brother Chuan." Liu Zhiguang stepped forward and said, "Please lead us to save Zhou Kai and the others. We're all brothers; we can't stand by at such a crucial moment. We must go and rescue them."
"Ah, why go through all this trouble?" Lin Chuan said with a smile.
"Brother Chuan, in life, brotherhood is everything; we can't let our brothers down," Liu Zhiguang stated resolutely.
"Of course not." Lin Chuan shook his head and said, "With the brothers all being so loyal, I can't lead you to danger. This time going to the Armed Police Brigade, I'm planning to go alone."
Liu Zhiguang was startled and said aloud, "Brother Chuan, that's not acceptable; we want to go too."
Patted Liu Zhiguang on the shoulder, Lin Chuan said, "I know what you guys are feeling. Just stay here and wait for my good news." After saying that, Lin Chuan got in the car and stepped on the gas pedal. The car immediately sped off.
Some family members of Changlin Factory's employees, upon hearing that the factory was seized, gathered at the factory gate.
At first, few employees of Changlin Factory were discussing in small groups. Gradually, quite a number of people gathered unknowingly. They all congregated at the entrance of Changlin Factory, chatting and talking about the social injustices of today's world.
In their view, it was all because Feixiang Company was growing increasingly powerful, so some people became jealous and couldn't stand it, thus they resorted to underhanded tactics to deliberately cause trouble for them, using illegitimate competition to crush and overthrow their rivals.
Lin Chuan drove straight toward the west of the city.
The entire Jiangbei City was already abuzz with various lively rumors as Lin Chuan embarked on his journey. Some said Lin Chuan was overreaching and seeking his own demise, while others said Lin Chuan was all about loyalty, a true brother with a sense of righteousness that reached the skies. In any case, it seemed that everyone had their own interpretation of Lin Chuan's actions.
There was a person named Li Gui, this guy had a sharp business mind. After learning about the situation, he immediately pondered whether he should take some action. Lin Chuan going alone to the Armed Police Brigade to ask for someone's release was a big deal. If he didn't take this opportunity to make a fortune, wouldn't it be a waste of his business acumen?
This fella quickly gathered his underlings and opened a betting pool, setting the odds at ten to one against Lin Chuan successfully getting the person out.
Sure enough, many people joined in, and roughly eighty percent of them bet that Lin Chuan wouldn't be able to get the person out.
Lin Chuan parked the car at the entrance, where two neatly dressed warriors of the Armed Police immediately stopped him.
"Halt, this is a military restricted area, no trespassing." The Armed Police brother sternly rebuked.
"I'm here to see Captain Liu," Lin Chuan said.
"Wait here, I'll go and report it," The Armed Police brother hesitated slightly but immediately turned and went inside. The other Armed Police soldier held a gun to block Lin Chuan and Zhou Rui.
The two hadn't stood at the entrance for more than a few minutes when they saw a car pulling up. Three or four people jumped out, the leader among them was Liu Zhiguang.
"Didn't I tell you not to come?" Lin Chuan immediately asked him upon seeing Liu Zhiguang.
Liu Zhiguang chuckled, "I couldn't feel at ease, that's why I came over."
"Without my orders, no one is allowed to act rashly," Lin Chuan shouted angrily.
It wasn't long before the Armed Police brother who went in to report reemerged, saying, "Lin Chuan, you can go in, but the others must wait outside."
"No way, Brother Chuan, it's too dangerous for you to go in alone," Liu Zhiguang said, looking at Lin Chuan.
Zhou Rui also looked at Lin Chuan with a concerned expression.
Lin Chuan raised his hand and said, "Brothers, all of you wait outside, I'll go in alone. Remember, don't act recklessly."
"I'm coming with you," Zhou Rui said firmly, holding Lin Chuan's hand.
"Fine," Lin Chuan nodded. There wouldn't be any trouble bringing Zhou Rui along, since they only asked for him to come alone, he guessed there wouldn't be any sinister tricks. Captain Liu of the Armed Police should not be a bad person, at least that's what Lin Chuan thought, since he had met the other party and judged solely based on his appearance.
Seeing that Lin Chuan's mind was made up, the others didn't say much.
Afterwards, the group stayed at the entrance, as Lin Chuan prepared to go in with Zhou Rui.
"The captain said only you are allowed in!" The Armed Police brother quickly stopped Lin Chuan.
Zhou Rui glared, her fiery temper flaring up, "What harm could a girl like me possibly do once inside? Do you think I can devour your captain or something?"
The Armed Police brother had no words to say.
