Chapter 310: #310 - Chapter 310: Meeting the Big Brothers of Magic City

Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Xiaoqian next to her: "Husband, are you staying? Should I take Qianqian back?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "What would I stay for? Would I help the Yan family find the murderer just because Yan Mingzhu died?"

"Let's go, we should get on the train."

On the train, Lin Chen played games with Lin Xiaoqian, not taking Yan Mingzhu's shooting too seriously.

Because even if Yan Mingzhu died, the Yan family might target him, but so what? He wasn't too afraid of the Yan family.

The Yan family had deep roots, and it wouldn't be easy for him to target them, but it would be equally difficult for the Yan family to target him.

His SSS-level status wasn't just for show; the country gave him this status because he had SSS-level value.

"Beep beep!"

Xu Mengyao's phone suddenly rang.

"Hello?"

The voice on the other end of the phone was a woman, she said: "President Xu, could you give the phone to Mr. Lin? I have something to discuss with him."

"Just a moment."

Xu Mengyao gave the phone to Lin Chen, "Qianqian, come play with Mommy for a bit, Daddy needs to take a call."

"Okay."

Lin Xiaoqian went to Xu Mengyao's side.

Lin Chen said: "This is Lin Chen, who is this—"

"Mr. Lin, we have learned that Yan Mingzhu was shot and killed. The Yan family has great power in China, and they may target you and your family next."

"Mr. Lin, would you like to immigrate to our Maple Leaf Country?"

The woman on the other end of the phone said.

Lin Chen raised his eyebrows, Maple Leaf Country?

"Sorry, I'm not interested."

The woman on the other end of the phone said persistently: "Mr. Lin, we can give you the best conditions if you come to our country, and you and your family will even have many privileges."

"Not interested."

Lin Chen hung up the phone after speaking.

Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen. Lin Chen said: "It was someone from Maple Leaf Country, trying to persuade me to join their Maple Leaf Country."

"Husband, could Yan Mingzhu's death be related to Maple Leaf Country—"

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "Unlikely. Even if the assassination was successful, they would likely fail to recruit me."

Lin Chen felt that the Witt family was the most likely culprit.

The Witt family has been in chaos recently.

They might suspect that he was causing trouble behind the scenes, and killing Yan Mingzhu could completely pit him against the Yan family.

The Witt family had the reason and the guts to do so.

"Wife, I need to use the computer for a while."

Lin Chen said.

"Husband, if you need to work, go ahead. Qianqian, Mommy will play with you, what do you want to play?"

Xu Mengyao said with a smile.

Lin Chen nodded and took out his laptop from his bag.

They were sitting in business class, with a large spacing, and only Xu Mengyao in the same row, so no one else could see.

Lin Chen quickly hacked into Edmund's phone. Edmund had changed his phone and computer, and used a better defense system, but it was useless to Lin Chen.

The network expert he hired used very obscure techniques, but as long as it didn't exceed his level, Lin Chen knew all about even the most obscure network technology.

There wasn't much data on the new phone. Lin Chen quickly copied it all in a few minutes and quietly took it away.

Next was Edmund's phone.

Then it was Terrence and the rest of the Witt family.

If the Witt family did this, Lin Chen felt they should have left clues.

Over the next one or two hours, Lin Chen hacked into all the members of the Witt family.

They had changed their phones, computers, and tablets, but it was useless. They couldn't change their companies and homes.

They couldn't change their email addresses casually either.

"I'll save the data first and look at it later."

Lin Chen muttered to himself.

"Qianqian, do you want to play a game?"

Lin Chen looked at Lin Xiaoqian and asked with a smile.

"Okay."

Lin Xiaoqian happily went to Lin Chen's side.

Five minutes passed, and Lin Chen's hacker skills began to improve.

...

By the time they arrived in Shanghai, it was already past three in the afternoon. Lin Chen and Xu Mengyao went directly to the Xu family.

Old Xu and Xu Zhongting hadn't sent out the invitation cards yet.

"Little Lin, a rare guest."

"Welcome, welcome!"

"Mengyao, Qianqian, come in quickly!"

Old Xu opened the door and said happily when he saw Lin Chen and the others.

Lin Chen and the others entered the house.

Old Xu said with emotion: "Little Lin, you are amazing now, a world-renowned calligrapher, children's author, and also a world-class mathematician."

Lin Chen smiled and said: "Old Xu, I'm still me. These are just some vain names and not worth mentioning."

Xu Mengyao took out the invitation card and gave it to Old Xu: "Grandpa Xu, you must come to Lin Chen and my wedding."

"I will, definitely."

Old Xu took the invitation card and said with a smile.

Lin Chen: "Old Xu, we set the date late, so the invitation cards were sent out late. Don't mind, haha."

Old Xu shook his head: "I don't mind. I know your situation, we will definitely attend."

"Little Lin, do you have extra invitation cards? Zhongting said he booked a hotel nearby, and there are a few other people."

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes."

Old Xu said with a smile: "Let's have dinner together tonight. Those few are all important figures in Shanghai. They are very eager to meet you, the master."

"Okay."

Lin Chen nodded with a smile.

Old Xu was definitely talking about the big shots in Shanghai. Their level was not as high as Old Yang and Old Li, but they had a lot of influence in Shanghai.

Xu's Group was in Shanghai after all.

"Husband, should Liang Ye take Qianqian to our parents' place?"

Xu Mengyao looked at Lin Chen and asked.

Lin Chen squatted down and kissed Lin Xiaoqian: "Qianqian, Grandpa and Grandma miss you, is it okay for Aunt Liang Ye to take you there? Mommy and Daddy have something to do tonight."

"We'll pick you up when Mommy and Daddy are done."

"Daddy will make you delicious food tomorrow."

Lin Xiaoqian said in a childish voice: "Daddy, you should drink less wine, the wine smells bad and it's not good to drink at all."

"Okay, I'll listen to you."

Lin Chen scratched Lin Xiaoqian's little nose and smiled.

Not long after, Liang Ye left with Lin Xiaoqian. There were state security personnel protecting her in secret, so her safety would not be a problem.

More than half an hour later, Lin Chen and the others arrived at the hotel. Xu Zhongting and the others also arrived at the hotel in several cars.

The Secretary and Mayor of Shanghai had arrived.

"Master Lin, President Xu, you are a perfect match, a match made in heaven."

"Master Lin, I've heard Zhongting talk about you for a long time. He said you are a dragon among men. Seeing you today, it's indeed true."

"Master Lin—"

Everyone was very polite.

Lin Chen said with a smile: "Leaders, you are too kind. Don't call me Master Lin, just call me Little Lin."

Secretary Dong Fengmao shook his head: "That won't do. With your current achievements, it's not appropriate for us to call you Little Lin."

"Let's call you Professor Lin."

"You are already an honorary professor at the Imperial Capital University."

Several people nodded.

Xu Zhongting said with a smile: "Little Lin, since Secretary Dong is calling you that, then I'll call you Professor Lin from now on."

Lin Chen nodded: "Whatever you want."

Everyone took their seats, and Dong Fengmao said with a smile: "Professor Lin, we also have many good universities in Shanghai. Would you like to choose one or two universities to be an honorary professor at?"

"Just a title."

Lin Chen nodded: "Of course, if there are suitable ones, there's no problem."
