Chapter 146

At this time, a shadow went by outside the door. He looked at Long Chen, who stormed out with fury, and then looked at the little dark room, which had its door closed. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief and then sent a text message to someone, saying that Long Chen had left and Zuo Bo was alone in the room.

After a while, a reply was received, “The money will be transferred to your bank account later.” Then the conversation ended.

Seeing the word “money”, the prison guard chuckled and threw the phone back into his pocket, but when he looked up, he could feel that someone had already been standing behind him.

He knew that it was Zuo Bo because no one could give people a feeling of beast-like suppression like Zuo Bo so he quickly turned around and muttered in fear, “H… hello, warden.” His palms were secretly sweating as he said so.

‘When did the warden come out from that room? Did he see the text message?’

The prison guard was so frightened that he didn’t dare to raise his head, but Zuo Bo just asked expressionlessly, “What are you doing here?” The coldness in his words could be clearly sensed.

“I, I’m… on patrol.” Being asked by Zuo Bo, the guard almost shat his pants and he just couldn’t stop shivering.

Zuo Bo frowned but didn’t say anything, which frightened the prison guard out of his wits. He bit his lower lip hard, and the sweat on his forehead just rolled down to his chin, eventually falling to the ground.

It seemed that everyone was not bragging about how horrifying Zuo Bo was, otherwise this prison guard would not act like this in fear.

“Where did the second lieutenant go?” After a while, Zuo Bo looked at the prison guard and suddenly asked.

At first, the guard was stunned; then he pointed at a direction in panic and said, “He went over there.”

But as soon as the guard said that, he felt a sudden pain in his neck. Before he could react, Zuo Bo had already snapped his neck and threw his body on the ground like throwing a bag of garbage.

Then Zuo Bo looked at a man not far away and said coldly, “Clean it up.”

He took out his phone, called Zuo Yi, and walked in the direction where Long Chen had left coldly.

“What’s the matter, brother? Please don’t tell me that you made Long Chen angry again!” Seeing that it was Zuo Bo’s number, Zuo Yi chuckled and said in a joking tone, because he felt that Zuo Bo and Long Chen were getting along just now, so they should have told each other their feelings by now.

However, Zuo Bo’s cold voice cut off his passion, “Send someone to protect Long Chen in secret.”

“Protect Long Chen?” Zuo Yi was bewildered. He wanted to ask him why he wanted to protect Long Chen, but suddenly, as if he had remembered something, his pupils dilated violently. “Long Qi is here?” His eyes were immediately filled with a murderous look; he was nothing like the gentle Zuo Yi he had been.

‘Isn’t Long Qi still hospitalized? How could he come here? Or…’ Zuo Yi’s eyes popped, and then what Zuo Bo said next confirmed his guess.

“The prison guard was manipulated by him. Get one of your people to secretly protect him. If Long Chen finds out the people who are protecting him are sent by me, he would only kill them all.” Zuo Bo pinched his brow, looking helpless and irritated.

Then he asked again, “Are you with Ying Cheng now?”

Zuo Yi didn’t know why Zuo Bo asked about that, but he answered honestly, “Yes, I’m with Ying Cheng.” Then he looked at Ying Cheng who was beside him.

“Help me borrow someone from him.”

‘Help?’ Hearing Zuo Bo use this word, Zuo Yi was shocked, but he also asked, “Who is it?”

“Shen Yan.”

‘Shen Yan? Well, that makes sense. Shen Yan and Long Chen came from the same army. There should be no doubt about his power and skills. He will be the most appropriate candidate to protect Long Chen.’

“I’ll make arrangements.” Zuo Yi immediately said.

Zuo Bo heaved a sigh of relief and then hung up the phone.

Zuo Yi felt a little distressed for that was the first time he heard Zuo Bo talking with such weak voice, but thinking of Long Qi, he was even more furious. It seemed that this man named Long Qi was not a person who would be welcomed.
