"Taoist Priest, don't just stand there, come in and chat," a charming woman with forty-two-inch legs said warmly.
Lin Chen smiled. "You're the Leggy Queen, Zhizhi, right? This is for the eighteen hundred dollars Blind Chen owes you."
Zhizhi approached Lin Chen. "Little Priest, I watch your livestreams every day, I was drooling yesterday! Let me see if those abdominal muscles are real!"
"Please be respectful, miss," Lin Chen leaned back.
Zhizhi said coquettishly, "Taoist Priest, Blind Chen always does his fortune-telling inside the house."
Lin Chen's mouth twitched. "That's why he owes you money."
Zhizhi covered her heart, looking hurt. "Little Taoist, you've wounded my feelings, come take a look at me."
Lin Chen wasn't falling for it. These women were drama queens, their storytelling skills were even better than his.
"I still need to go pay off the debt, so I won't bother you anymore." Lin Chen went up to the third floor and continued paying off the debt, inevitably getting flirted with by the girls again.
Then the fourth floor. Lin Chen was extremely impressed with the original owner's master, "He looks so thin, but his body is quite good…"
After he finished paying off the debt, he went down to the second floor and found Zhizhi arguing with a man.
"I'm not doing business with you, please leave."
"My money isn't money?! What do you guys mean!"
"Big brother, I'm not feeling well today."
"Then I'll make you feel good!"
Zhizhi was being dragged and shoved towards a room when she saw Lin Chen passing by.
"Taoist Priest, help!"
Before Lin Chen could say anything, the man turned his head. "Damn, I was wondering who'd dare to interfere. Turns out it's a pretty boy!"
"What are you looking at? So what if you're handsome? You're still here!"
The man was about forty, with a burn scar on his left cheek. His face was covered in thick flesh, bulging veins, and bloodshot eyes, revealing the whites of his eyes.
Looks like a villain. No wonder these girls don't want to earn his money.
The man saw Lin Chen staring at him and smirked, "Kid, you're scared, right? Don't you dare interfere. If you piss me off, I'll stab you a few times and kill you."
Lin Chen smiled. "Actually, I'm going to interfere."
Zhizhi was nearly moved to tears. "Oh, the little Taoist Priest still cares about me."
The commotion drew a crowd of girls from the second and even third floors, all eager to see what was happening. There were white girls, black girls, all sorts.
"The Taoist Priest is standing up for what's right!"
"The Taoist Priest is so handsome!"
"I'm clearly prettier than Zhizhi, I really don't know where I lost. Could it be because I'm not forward enough?!"
Some girls even started live streams, trying to ride the wave of popularity.
"Taoist Priest Lin appears on the first floor to save the day!"
"Taoist Priest Lin competes with a fierce man over a woman!"
"Even handsome Taoist priests get lonely!"
Catwoman was annoyed. She hadn't seen Lin Chen's livestream for two hours. While wandering around, she saw the title and clicked on it, immediately starting to curse.
"Bastard, this guy is truly two-faced!"
"It's only noon, and he's already gone to that kind of place, so disgusting."
"What about my car? Will I catch a virus from him?"
"And Leggy Queen? Bah, my legs are better!" Catwoman ranted furiously.
Jill Valentine, who was in the bureau, dropped the files she was holding. "This scoundrel of a Taoist, shameless!"
"It's so true that men go bad when they have money. He's only got a little bit of money, and already…"
Jill looked at herself, then at Zhizhi in the video. "How am I not better? Is my waist not slim enough, or am I not fierce enough?! Last night he was still pretending to be a gentleman."
At that moment, her phone rang. Jill looked and saw it was Lin Chen calling.
"What's wrong with him, calling me," Jill said, though she answered the phone anyway.
She said, annoyed, "You don't have enough money for the services? I'm not lending you any!"
Lin Chen laughed, "What kind of person do you think I am?"
"What other kind of person goes to those places!"
"Alright, stop the nonsense. Come over quickly. I'll give you a criminal. Remember to give me the bounty."
"You mean the guy who was competing with you for the girl?"
"Of course."
Lin Chen hung up the phone and looked at Scarface with a half-smile.
"The way you're looking at me isn't right, kid. Who were you talking to?" Scarface looked a little guilty.
"The detective, of course, Scarface Chen. You don't think you can just run away after killing someone, do you?" Lin Chen said with a laugh.
Scarface was startled. He hadn't expected this pretty boy to know him, and to know he'd killed someone!
Zhizhi quickly retreated behind Lin Chen. "Bad guy, Taoist Priest Lin's fortune-telling is very accurate! Don't try to argue!"
"We can all bear witness, you're finished."
Lin Chen said, "Three years ago, Chinatown, California, a girl named Lili, do you remember her? You're still wanted, and you dare to be so arrogant."
Scarface pulled out a switchblade. "So what? I'll kill you first!"
The girls took a few steps back when they saw the knife.
Lin Chen sighed, "Indeed, fortune-telling is risky. Why did he have to pull a knife?"
"Kid, it's too late to regret it!" Scarface hated Lin Chen. Not only was he handsome, but he also exposed his fugitive status, ruining his mood!
He swung the knife, stabbing toward Lin Chen.
