Jiang Chen retrieved his phone and said to Lei Hu with a cold voice, "Are you still going to keep my sister company for drinks?"

"Not daring anymore! Not daring at all!" Lei Hu waved his hands in a hurry.

"Sister?"

"Isn't he Gong Yue's bodyguard?!"

"This... is he Gong Yue's brother? I've never heard that Gong Yue has a brother!"

"How incredible is Gong Yue's brother? We just now..."

Li Hao and the others looked at Jiang Chen in astonishment, whispering among themselves. Thinking back to how they had just been mocking Jiang Chen, they wished they could hide in a hole!

"Get up!"

Jiang Chen glanced at Li Hao and the others without engaging with them, his gaze indifferent as he focused on Lei Hu.

"Yes."

Lei Hu responded with a voice and stood up next to Jiang Chen, looking at him respectfully.

Jiang Chen looked at Lei Hu surprisingly, wondering what he was doing standing beside him, but he didn't bother with it, turning his head towards Gong Yue, "Let's go, we're heading back."

"Oh!" Gong Yue nodded, not refusing anymore.

"Um... Mr. Jiang!" Lei Hu paused for a moment, then quickly spoke up, "The boss asked me to take you to him."

Jiang Chen understood and nodded slightly, "I know he has something for me, it's on the way, I'll take this girl home first."

"Yes!" Lei Hu nodded obediently.

As the group left, Li Hao and the others were left looking at each other in confusion.

"Who exactly is this guy?"

"I don't know either!"

"Too incredible!"

They were still in shock, unable to extricate themselves.

...

After dropping Gong Yue off at her home, Jiang Chen followed Lei Hu to Lin Bingrui's garden villa.

"Mr. Jiang, please!" Lin Bingrui saw Jiang Chen arriving and politely ushered him into the living room.

Once both were seated, Lin Bingrui said with a smile, "Mr. Jiang, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, my father could have been in danger!"

"It's no trouble at all, is there something you wanted to discuss with me, President Lin?" Jiang Chen dismissed with a wave of his hand and got straight to the point.

Lin Bingrui smiled, his eyes filled with anticipation, "I've heard that Mr. Jiang is also a Martial Artist?"

"Martial Artist? Who did you hear that from? I'm not a Martial Artist!" Jiang Chen was puzzled for a moment but then shook his head.

Lin Bingrui was taken aback and said in surprise, "But I heard from Bao Qiang that Mr. Jiang's martial abilities are quite extraordinary?"

"Oh, they're alright." Jiang Chen realized and nodded indifferently, then asked softly, "President Lin, what exactly did you want to see me for?"

Lin Bingrui hesitated for a moment and said softly, "It's like this. I had an enemy whom I drove out of Dingjing, but now he has come back for revenge!"

"You're the dominant power in Dingjing; you have so many people under you and you're still afraid of a single enemy?" Jiang Chen said to Lin Bingrui with surprise.

Lin Bingrui shook his head, "Mr. Jiang, it's not what you're thinking. That enemy has issued a hero's challenge. In our circles, once a hero's challenge is made, you can't rely on numbers. You need a capable fighter by your side to settle things through one-on-one combat. I've been in a high position for many years and haven't practiced martial arts. I used to have a Martial Artist expert by my side, but he was defeated and severely injured by the challenger. So I must find another expert to help me."

Jiang Chen was initially startled then became inwardly pleased.

He was eager to observe more Martial Artists to discern the differences between himself and them, as he always felt disconnected from Martial Artists but could not quite pinpoint why. With this opportunity, he wanted to see if he could find any distinctions.

"I can go," Jiang Chen spoke softly, a tinge of anticipation in his eyes.

"This..."

But Lin Bingrui hesitated.

Just now, Jiang Chen had admitted he wasn't a Martial Artist, leaving Lin Bingrui ever more uncertain. If Jiang Chen went and lost, Lin Bingrui himself would be in danger.

After some thought, Lin Bingrui found it difficult to outright refuse Jiang Chen, especially since he had invited him over. He could only nod and say, "Alright, then we'll have to trouble Mr. Jiang at that time."

Although he agreed, Lin Bingrui still wanted to find another Martial Artist. Jiang Chen still did not reassure him.

"Dad, don't believe him!" No sooner had Jiang Chen left than Lin Zhiyan came running out of the room.

She spoke with scorn, "That Jiang Chen, I think he's a fraud. Who can heal and also possess high-level martial skills? His victory over Bao Qiang and the others was probably sheer luck. How can you trust him? This challenge is so important, you can't rely on him!"

Lin Bingrui nodded; he thought the same. They couldn't count on Jiang Chen.

Thinking it over, Lin Bingrui turned and walked towards a room.

Arriving at the door, Lin Bingrui knocked.

"Come in!" a somewhat weak voice called from inside the room.

Lin Bingrui opened the door and walked in.

In the room, a pale man leaned on the bed. Seeing Lin Bingrui, he asked in bewilderment, "President Lin, what's going on?"

"Well, Zhang Qiang, I wanted to ask you if you still know any other Martial Artists?" Lin Bingrui began, with a light chuckle.

Zhang Qiang was the Martial Artist in Lin Bingrui's service. Hearing Lin Bingrui's words, he was taken aback and asked with surprise, "President Lin, didn't I hear you found a master? Isn't he capable?"

Lin Bingrui replied awkwardly, "The guy is a young man who also admitted he's not a Martial Artist. I'm afraid he doesn't even know the ranks of Martial Artists. I can't trust him, but his medical skills are quite impressive."

"Is that so?" Zhang Qiang pondered for a moment and then said softly, "Then invite him over to check my injuries. I'll test him out and see what he's made of. If he's decent, let him fight. He might become a valuable asset for you in the future, President Lin."

Lin Bingrui's eyes lit up, and he nodded, "Okay, let's do that."

Pulling out his phone, Lin Bingrui called Jiang Chen.

"Hello, President Lin."

Once the call connected, Lin Bingrui said cheerfully, "Mr. Jiang, I apologize, I forgot earlier. Didn't I mention I have a master here who's been injured? I was hoping you could come over and take a look at his injuries."

"Sure, how about tomorrow?"

"That's great, I'll be waiting for you at home tomorrow," Lin Bingrui replied, glancing at Zhang Qiang and nodding in agreement.

"He agreed?" Zhang Qiang asked softly as Lin Bingrui hung up the phone.

Lin Bingrui nodded, "He did. Tomorrow it's up to you to test him."

"Hmm," Zhang Qiang nodded, "Even though I can't fight right now, testing someone is still within my means!"

...

Early next morning, Jiang Chen arrived at Lin Bingrui's villa as arranged.

"Mr. Jiang."

Seeing Jiang Chen arrive, Lin Bingrui smiled and welcomed him into the living room.

In the living room, Zhang Qiang was already waiting in a wheelchair.

Upon Jiang Chen's arrival, Zhang Qiang observed him with a proud demeanor.
