Proton Plan & Girl's Amulet

  Sitting down in the living room, Chen Chen was still a bit distracted. The Zhao family's plan for the heir had been bothering him. So far, he had only heard of one name, but didn't know what the other party wanted to do. This feeling was extremely uncomfortable.

  "How is it?" Seeing Chen Chen's expression, Luo Yu Huang asked cautiously: "Is there any discovery?"

  "Nothing..." Chen Chen sighed, but at this moment, he unexpectedly found that the crowd present had a worried look on their faces, and he was taken aback: "What's wrong? What happened?"

  Something's come up... Ruo Yu Huang let out a faint sigh, composed himself and explained: "After you left, I received several calls from some businessmen. Their children have been kidnapped and they've called to demand ransom."

  "The children were kidnapped by the bandits..." Chen Chen's eyebrows furrowed, and suddenly he understood: "Hostage, hostage! This 'hostage' isn't referring to some kind of tiny particle at all, but rather the practice of ancient emperors sending their children as hostages to enemy countries! The Hostage Plan was originally meant to hold the children of the Rong merchants!"

  "What are you talking about?" Hearing Chen Chen's words, everyone present was shocked at the same time: "What proton, what proton plan?"

  "I see!" With a hint of relief, Chen Chen slightly relaxed and explained: "I happened to learn that the Zhao family is planning to implement a hostage plan. At first, I didn't understand what this hostage plan was all about. Just now, when you mentioned that several sons and daughters of the merchants were being held captive, it suddenly reminded me."

  "The Zhao family has recently suffered a severe blow and is at the moment of life and death. In desperation, they have decided to take the most despicable yet effective approach: holding all the children of the wealthy merchants hostage and demanding a large ransom. Although one or two individuals may not be significant, with so many merchants added together, the ransom has accumulated to a staggering figure. This enormous sum is enough for the Zhao family to sustain themselves."

  "This damned guy!" Upon hearing Chen Chen's explanation, Ruo Yu Huang also understood and slammed his hand on the table: "No wonder Xin Ran was attacked, my daughter is also their target, it's just that because of you, she was rescued."

  "That makes it easy to explain, Olika was not originally part of the hijacking plan." Chen Chen nodded and glanced at Olika beside him: "But Olika was with Xinran and saw her being hijacked. Those people decided to take Olika together in order to keep the secret."

  "What's going on?" The old guard beside them calmly looked at the two and asked, "What should we do now?"

  "I'll go out for a bit." Chen Chen took a deep breath, then stood up and adjusted his collar: "No choice, if the Zhao family succeeds, they'll be able to stir up trouble again. This is definitely not good news. Let's take advantage of their current downfall and eliminate them once and for all."

  "...you..." As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was taken aback.

  "It's too dangerous for one person, President. You can't go." Oliga quickly stood up and pulled Chen Chen: "This kind of thing should be reported to the police, let them handle it."

  "Yes, Chen Chen, holding so many people, they must be a lot...". Luo Xinyan also quickly came forward and grabbed Chen Chen's other arm: "Let's call the police."

  "You've seen my abilities, don't you trust me?" Chen Chen smiled faintly and gently patted the two on the shoulder: "I'll go take a look first, mainly to help the police find the exact location, so as not to waste time. If there's a problem, I won't force it."

  After hearing this explanation and thinking of Chen Chen's terrifying strength, everyone didn't have any reason to persuade him anymore.

  Seeing that he had made up his mind, Oliga did not dissuade him anymore. Instead, she lifted her icy jade arm and took off a platinum cuff inlaid with various colored gemstones from her wrist and helped Chen Chen put it on his right hand.

  Just as Chen Chen was stunned, she explained with a red face: "This is the ancestral gesture of our Tulunni family, it was passed down to me by my mother on my 16th birthday as a protective object, hoping to bring you good luck and protect you from harm."

  "An heirloom, huh..." Chen Chen smiled faintly and looked at her with interest: "Something so important, usually only given to the most important person in one's heart, right?"

  "President... you..." Ouyang Jia's pretty face turned even redder, as if she was about to bleed. She flung off his hand and turned her head away, angrily avoiding Chen Chen.

  Seeing this, Chen Chen stopped teasing and stretched out his hand to gently stroke the bracelet, his expression completely relaxed.

  Witnessing this warm and romantic scene, Lu Xinyan secretly watched the two of them, a hint of bitterness rising in her heart, a deep sense of discontent surging up.

  All of a sudden, she made a decision, reached out and took off the necklace that had been hanging around her neck, and without hesitation put it on Chen Chen's neck.

  "This is... " Chen Chen was caught off guard, and by the time he reacted, the necklace was already on him. The cold metal chain still held Rou Xinyan's body temperature and a faint fragrance.

  "This was given to me by Dad, and I've been wearing it as a lucky charm all along......" Ruo Xinran also explained in a low voice with a red face: "I hope it can bless you peace and safety."

  Seeing this scene, Luo Yu Huang couldn't stay any longer, let out a long sigh, and called Lao Wei to move aside, not disturbing the few people.

  "Aren't you going to control them?" Old Wei secretly glanced at the three of them and asked in a low voice, "Isn't this not good for Xinran?"

  "How to manage?" Rong Yu Huang shook his head helplessly: "Didn't you see Xin Ran's eyes? Can it be managed? Forget it, young people's affairs, let them solve it themselves..."

  On the other hand, Chen Chen also felt somewhat helpless.

  Faced with the affection of two girls, he really didn't know how to face it, for the time being, just pretend to be stupid...

  But then he thought again, and felt a little relieved. Fortunately, it was only two girls now, which meant just one bracelet and one necklace. If there were more, wouldn't he have to hang them all over his body?

  As I thought about these things, I unconsciously pinched the pendant of the necklace and brought it in front of my eyes to take a look.

  The pendant is made of a certain azure crystal, with a bright blue and transparent light, reflecting a dazzling blue glow under the lamp.

  But what shocked Chen Chen was that the iris scanner suddenly prompted a message, which flashed through his mind.

  "Discovery of precious energy, Kaidalin crystal residual substance!"

  "This... this is..." Chen Chen held the pendant, and suddenly stood still on the spot.

  When he learned about the energy crisis in Bitface Prison, his assistant had told him that the iris scanner recorded relevant information about the required concentrated crystals and would send a prompt once found.

  And now, the iris scanner has just discovered this crystallization and issued such a prompt!

  What's that pendant?
