Super Tycoon: I Beg You, Stop Pulling Stunts

Chapter 476: Chapter 289: Private and Public

”My flight’s about to board. See you later.”

An Yunzhi glanced at her watch and offered a polite, perfunctory smile. ’There’s nothing left to talk about. Just sitting here is awkward and pointless.’

’I can’t deny that Lin Chu is an exceptional man, but he’s just not my type.’

’Just regular friends, at most.’

’I don’t even want to be close friends.’

’A businessman...’

’Heh. Ultimately, it’s not exactly a noble profession.’

’Never mind their debauched private lives, even if he’s supposedly settled down now.’

’In other respects... business, being a merchant...’ An Yunzhi didn’t find any of it particularly impressive.

Lin Chu glanced at her, nodded, then stood up and smiled as he said his goodbyes. ”Sure. I should get going too. Let’s grab a bite sometime.”

Back in his own seat, Lin Chu took a sip of his now-cold tea and watched her retreating figure—slender, tall, poised, and elegant.

TSK.

’To be fair, she’s probably the most beautiful and graceful woman I’ve ever seen.’

’But nobody’s perfect, and she has plenty of flaws.’

’She’s proud and pretentious, with a streak of perfectionism.’

’Of course, with her family background, it’s only natural she’d turn out this way.’

Lin Chu was still watching as An Yunzhi reached the exit. Just then, two young men walked in. Both had a sharp, competent air about them. They recognized her instantly, and the man on the left reached out and took her by the arm.

”Hello, are you An Yunzhi?”

The man on the right asked, his voice low but stern.

’Looking at these two...’

An Yunzhi froze for a second, then nodded subconsciously.

The next moment, the man on the right flashed his credentials. The instant she saw the insignia on the ID, her face went deathly pale, and her knees buckled slightly.

”Ms. An, we’re going to have to ask you to come with us. We need your cooperation with an investigation.”

The man on the left said quietly.

Flanking her on the left and right, they escorted her away in a manner that was practically an abduction, acting as if nothing was out of the ordinary.

Everything in the VIP lounge continued as normal. The crowd barely noticed the scene unfolding at the entrance.

After all, their voices were low and their movements weren’t aggressive.

’Huh?’

’This scene...’

Lin Chu was completely stunned.

’What’s going on?’

After a moment’s hesitation, Lin Chu hurried forward.

’In a place like an airport, it can’t be a kidnapping.’

’As for anything else...’

’Those two men looked like they were from some government agency.’

’An Yunzhi is still a student, so it’s probably not about her. Could something have happened to her family?’

’If that’s the case, then this is some serious drama.’

’And it’s clearly urgent. Otherwise, they wouldn’t come all the way to the airport to ”arrest” someone.’

His mind racing, Lin Chu quickened his pace, circling around from behind to get a better look from their left-front. His eyes showed concern as he tried to get a clearer view.

An Yunzhi looked utterly distraught, with two streams of tears running down her face. She didn’t resist, as if she had already accepted... some inevitable fate.

For a second, his eyes met hers...

She lowered her head, silent, her delicate collarbones shifting slightly.

In such a humiliating situation, she wished the ground would open up and swallow her whole. It was the height of disgrace.

But compared to what was likely to happen next, she had no mental energy to spare for embarrassment.

’It’s not just about humiliation.’

’I could lose everything.’

The two agents noticed Lin Chu, their brows furrowing as their eyes grew wary.

However, Lin Chu did not step forward.

They shot him a warning glance, and seeing that he wasn’t going to make a move, they hurried away.

This was a critical operation; there was no need for unnecessary complications.

In a situation like this, Lin Chu obviously wasn’t going to try and stop them.

Watching their three figures disappear into the distance, Lin Chu shook his head. He was at a loss for words, but a quiet sense of reflection bloomed within him.

’Gain and loss spring from the same source.’

’The very thing that builds you up is often what destroys you.’

’An...’

’I wonder what fate has in store for her?’

’Such is... impermanence.’

...

A few hours later, the plane landed, and Lin Chu was back in Peng City.

You Shaoqiang was waiting at the arrivals gate. The two of them made their way to the underground parking garage and got in the car.

He hadn’t brought a driver; he was driving himself, having come personally to pick Lin Chu up.

A gesture of respect.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Lin Chu thought for a moment before deciding to mention what he’d seen. ”The An Family, you know them, right? I’m talking about An Yunzhi, the girl Kang Hao was desperately chasing after, the one with the powerful background.”

It was just idle chatter.

And he was, admittedly, a little curious to hear some gossip.

It was just that his own access to high-level information was limited. News of this caliber wasn’t something he could dig up on his own.

But You Shaoqiang had deep connections; he definitely had sources.

Not that Lin Chu wanted to do anything about it.

For one, he respected the course of another’s fate.

And for another, given the An Family’s standing, there was nothing he could do anyway.

”Yeah, of course I know her.”

”Heh, now she’s a true blue blood.”

”What’s up?”

You Shaoqiang asked, his interest piqued, trying to guess Lin Chu’s motive. Why would he bring her up out of the blue?

’Could it be... he wants to make a move on her?’

”I just saw her in the airport VIP lounge.”

”But that’s not the point. The point is, two plainclothes agents took her away.”

Lin Chu raised his eyebrows, giving him a knowing look.

Hmm?

Hearing this, You Shaoqiang froze. A moment later, he snapped back to reality and couldn’t stop a curse from escaping his lips. ”Holy shit!”

He was usually very well-mannered and almost never used such language.

To curse after hearing this news meant he was truly unable to contain himself.

This wasn’t the kind of thing Lin Chu would joke about, nor was it a suitable topic for jokes.
