Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 200: Chapter 199 Reinforcements Have Arrived (Happy Lantern Festival!)

”Lu Tianxing, are you really confident about taking on the Zhao Family?” Seeing Zhao Lin hang up the phone, Xue Man still seemed somewhat worried as she asked.

”I’m not sure at all.”

Lu Tianxing replied casually, ”I just can’t stand that guy being so arrogant, so I want to teach him a lesson. Didn’t you think I was very manly just now? Extremely charismatic? A man shouldn’t be a coward. I am a real man.”

”A man? A man my ass, do you know you’re practically seeking death?”

Xue Man’s voice suddenly rose, with an almost frantic urge, nearly spitting out a mouthful of old blood. This bastard was making such jokes at a time like this, he really had some nerve.

”No way, we can’t stay here. Let’s get out of here quickly before the Zhao Family’s people arrive. We need to leave Xiangjiang right away.”

As she spoke, Xue Man was about to drag Lu Tianxing away without further discussion.

”Minister Xue, I was just kidding. Don’t be so agitated.”

Lu Tianxing caught Xue Man’s hand with his own and smiled confidently, ”The Zhao Family can’t hurt me. If Bai’s Group wants to develop in Xiangjiang in the future, we cannot back down this time. If we do, it will bring catastrophic and endless trouble to the Xiangjiang branch. If we don’t put such a family in their place once and for all, they will never stop.”

Feeling her hand being held by Lu Tianxing, Xue Man’s pretty face flushed with a touch of red, she struggled slightly and said, ”Lu Tianxing, are you really sure you can take on the Zhao Family? You’re not lying to me?”

”Would lying to you be beneficial to me? I’m so young, so handsome, and I haven’t even left a trace of posterity for my Lu Family. I certainly don’t want to die young.”

Lu Tianxing gave Xue Man a speechless look and, ignoring her objections, pulled her by the hand and sat back down on the nearby sofa, casually pouring himself a cup of tea and leisurely sipping it.

Xue Man looked at Lu Tianxing, speechless. She realized she had still underestimated him. Knowing that a tough fight was ahead, he still sat there drinking tea as if nothing was amiss. There were only two explanations for such a person: first, insanely bold and ignorant, someone who wouldn’t rest until encountering death.

Second, possessing outrageous confidence, for him, the Zhao Family was no different than ants, which he could squash effortlessly, hence his indifference.

Xue Man sighed softly, wondering how she could have failed to foresee that so much would happen in less than a day since coming to Xiangjiang. Her gaze fell on Lu Tianxing, mixed with a hint of curiosity; she found that she was becoming less and less able to see through him.

Xue Man didn’t realize that sometimes a woman’s curiosity is the beginning of her downfall.

At this moment, Zhao Lin had also calmed down.

The calmed Zhao Lin vaguely felt that since Lu Tianxing dared to be so arrogant even after knowing his identity, not only breaking his leg but also forcing him to call for reinforcements, he must have something to rely on that gave him the confidence to challenge the Zhao Family. But what exactly was Lu Tianxing’s trump card?

Cheng Bao?

Or was it Bai’s Group?

In Zhao Lin’s opinion, it definitely wouldn’t be either of these. Although these powers were strong, they would not be foolish enough to clash with the Zhao Family to the bitter end over one person.

Especially Bai’s Group, where Lu Tianxing was just an assistant. Bai’s Group would not go head-to-head with the Zhao Family over a mere assistant, even if Lu Tianxing might have some connection with Bai Zhiqing. It wouldn’t make sense for them to do so, as a deadlock would benefit no one.

As for Cheng Bao, it was even less likely. Cheng Bao’s influence was all in Xiangjiang, and if Cheng Bao dared to go head-to-head with the Zhao Family, the outcome would surely be both sides suffering. It would be a loss-making enterprise, and he knew that Cheng Bao wasn’t someone to act without profit, someone who would gamble all his years of establishment just for the right price.

This very reason led Zhao Lin to conclude that the support wouldn’t be Cheng Bao or Bai’s Group.

It must be said that Zhao Lin was not merely a playboy consumed by frivolity. In a situation where he had been beaten to such a state, he was still able to calmly analyze so many issues. This Zhao Lin was by no means simple.

But what was Lu Tianxing’s support in the end? Zhao Lin couldn’t figure it out, and he was even less aware that in Lu Tianxing’s eyes, Cheng Bao was at most a tiny ant, who, if he wished, could create countless Cheng Baos in minutes. In terms of strength and influence, he could completely surpass the predecessor.

Time ticked by slowly, and the entire lobby of Lin Hua Building fell into an eerie silence. Perhaps it was because the Zhao Family had given advance notice that the conflict in Lin Hua Building didn’t alarm the Siang Chiang Police. Even the streets surrounding Lin Hua Building were cleared, devoid of any pedestrian presence, as if it had become a place isolated from the world.

Fifteen minutes later, a stretch Lincoln with a string of sixes on its license plate arrived at the entrance of Lin Hua Building, flanked by two Mercedes Benz cars, and broke through red lights all the way.

”Whoosh!”

The car stopped, and eight bodyguards got out of the Mercedes cars one by one, their waists bulging, obviously carrying weapons, and stood in line at the entrance, as if welcoming the arrival of a leader.

At the same time, the door of the stretch Lincoln slowly opened, and a middle-aged man with an extraordinary presence stepped out.

He was incredibly composed, dressed in an expensive suit. Now stepping out, a single glance from his eyes made everyone feel a heavy pressure rushing toward them. This kind of presence was not something that ordinary people could match.

This middle-aged man was none other than Zhao Lin’s father—Zhao Quan.

”Master.”

As soon as Zhao Quan got out of the car, all eight bodyguards called out in unison.

Zhao Quan swept his gaze around the area and snorted coldly, ”Let’s go, follow me inside. I want to see who this upstart is who dares to lay hands on my son, Zhao Quan.”

As he finished speaking, Zhao Quan laughed coldly again, ”Sun Yan, you and a few others come with me. The rest of you block off the area. Not even a living person, not to mention a fly, should be let out. Whoever dares to break through forcefully, show no mercy.”

Having said this, Zhao Quan did not waste any more words and led his men into Lin Hua Building with an imposing aura.

Zhao Quan, leading the bodyguards, marched into the lobby in a menacing manner. As soon as he entered the lobby, Zhao Quan saw his son lying on the ground like a dead dog, with one side of his face severely swollen, covered in blood, looking extremely terrifying, and one of his legs was directly crushed.

Instantly, the whole lobby was filled with a chilling intent to kill.

The gaze of Lu Tianxing met that of Zhao Quan in midair, with Zhao Quan’s eyes brimming with an icy and deadly intent, whereas Lu Tianxing’s gaze was calm and undisturbed, with a faint smile always on his lips, as if oblivious to the murderous atmosphere filling the lobby.

”Dad...”

Zhao Lin struggled to lift his head, and upon seeing Zhao Quan, his eyes suddenly lit up, like a drowning man grasping the last straw, struggling to crawl towards Zhao Lin.
