Chapter 229 Departure

"If it's fast, ten days; at most, no more than a month."

"That long?"

Lin Ruoxue fought back tears and managed to show a slight smile:

"Okay, you go, but call me every day to check in, that's all."

"I'll try my best!"

Facing such a simple request from Lin Ruoxue that he couldn't even fulfill made Su Chen feel very guilty, but he had no choice.

What kind of situations might arise, he wasn't clear either.

"Is it dangerous?"

Lin Ruoxue asked this question and felt it was superfluous, but without asking, she always felt uneasy!

"Don't worry!"

Su Chen walked over, took her into his arms, and said:

"I promise you, I'll definitely come back safely to see you!"

"You promise!"

Lin Ruoxue said, looking up at Su Chen.

"I promise!"

Su Chen raised three fingers and swore, telling himself that even if it was for Lin Ruoxue, he must return safely.

"During this time, I'll have Clown come over to stay, you ask Wang's mom to prepare him a guest room tomorrow."

Su Chen said, now he couldn't feel at ease leaving Lin Ruoxue alone, especially since he seemed to have offended quite a few people.

"Is that necessary?!"

Lin Ruoxue was not quite used to having strange men in her home.

"It's necessary, I can't be at ease with you alone, if someone takes advantage of my absence to kidnap my beauty, I'll have nowhere to cry."

Su Chen made a joke to lighten the mood.

"Pfft!"

Lin Ruoxue burst into laughter:

"Don't worry, I won't let them, no one can take me away."

"Okay, I'll ask Wang's mom to get a room ready tomorrow."

"That's my good girl, okay, I'm leaving now."

Su Chen said reluctantly, then kissed Lin Ruoxue's pale and tender forehead gently, this time Lin Ruoxue did not refuse.

After the kiss, Su Chen turned around and left; he didn't take any clothes, much like a traveler.

"Come back early!"

And their aim in abducting these two doctors was surely for human genetic modification.

Now, even though Doctor Hughes had already died, Doctor Gaia was still alive!

One could say Doctor Gaia was the most crucial talent in this technology; initially, the research at the Nether Temple had been completed under Doctor Gaia's leadership.

It was only later that Su Chen realized the problems and urgently halted it, then arranged for these two most important talents to be placed in a safe house in Canyabi, Africa, with three Shadow Guards for personal protection.

If they really got hold of Doctor Gaia, it would undoubtedly greatly advance their plan for human genetic modification, which was precisely why Su Chen had to rush there.

Su Chen stopped his car at a dock and then stood there smoking a cigarette while waiting.

Sure enough, before Su Chen finished his cigarette, a person approached.

"Buddy, could I borrow a light?"

It was a man in his thirties, his skin darkened and somewhat dry, possibly from frequently being exposed to sea winds.

At that moment, he had a cigarette in his mouth and looked at Su Chen with a scrutinizing gaze.

Su Chen smiled faintly and took out his lighter to light it for him.

The man took a leisurely drag and said,

"Are you looking to head out?"

Su Chen nodded,

"The South Sea, towards the Strait of Malacca."

"Going that way, huh? Well, the cost isn't low, it's thirty thousand."

The man clearly saw that Su Chen's car was nice, so he quoted a higher price than usual. In reality, twenty thousand would have been enough.

He said thirty thousand because haggling was expected; if he met a client who didn't know better and had plenty of money, then he would make a pretty profit.

"I'll give you fifty thousand, but I need to leave immediately!"

Su Chen said casually with a light smile.

The man was clearly taken aback, then said solemnly,

"If you're in such a rush, I need to check!"

Su Chen nodded, understanding that the man was just a middleman.

"Alright. If you can get me there quickly, I can add more!"

"Sure, don't worry. I know all the boats here, as long as the money is right, everything is easy!"

Encountering such a generous client, the man was very enthusiastic and quickly went aside to make a phone call.

About ten minutes later, the man came back.

"Buddy, you're in luck, there's a ship ready to leave now, but it'll cost an extra twenty thousand."

"Okay, that's fine."

For Su Chen, money was never an issue; what mattered was speed!
