Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 229: Chapter 228: The Chairman’s Task

”Cheng Bao?”

Upon hearing Cang Hu’s words, Zhang Tianfeng furrowed his brow. He was familiar with Cheng Bao—an infamous local snake in Xiangjiang, allegedly with murky international connections. Cheng Bao was known for his vengeful nature; he couldn’t care less about you unless you offended him, but once you did, it would be a relentless vendetta.

Zhang Tianfeng could never have imagined that Lu Tianxing would know Cheng Bao. If Bai Zhiqing seized this opportunity to use the connection between Cheng Bao and Lu Tianxing as a stepping-stone to enter Xiangjiang and expand her power, it would be even more difficult for Zhang Group to deal with Bai’s Group in the future.

”Lu Tianxing, who exactly are you?”

Zhang Tianfeng’s frown deepened as he realized that everything seemed to be connected to Lu Tianxing. Ever since Lu Tianxing had appeared by Bai Zhiqing’s side, none of his plans against Bai Zhiqing had ever succeeded.

Hearing Zhang Tianfeng’s mutter, a glint of murderous intent flashed in Cang Hu’s eyes as he said in a deep voice, ”Young master, what should we do next? Should I personally take action and eliminate Lu Tianxing to end all future troubles?”

Zhang Tianfeng’s gaze flickered, seemingly agitated, but finally, he waved his hand and said, ”No need, Lu Tianxing is not to be feared. Do not act rashly without first thoroughly investigating his true identity. The priority now is the bidding for the Tianhe Resort development. If we can secure the development investment for Tianhe Resort, we can use it as leverage against Bai’s Group to get what we want. Then will come the time for Lu Tianxing’s demise.”

At this, a fierce smile flashed across Zhang Tianfeng’s face, ”Cang Hu, how is that chess piece from Bai’s Group doing?

”Rest assured, young master, everything is under control,” Cang Hu replied with a sinister smile.

”Good, remember, before the bidding for Tianhe Resort development concludes, nothing must go wrong with that pawn. If he thinks about defecting, kill him.”

”Yes, young master.”

”Alright, you may go now. Just report Zhang Tianci’s death directly to the old master. Say that Zhang Tianci offended the Golden Pavilion and was killed. Go now!”

Zhang Tianfeng casually waved his hand, unconcerned about Zhang Tianci’s death, as his support for Zhang Tianci had always been intended to use him as a pawn. Now that Zhang Tianci was dead, it was just as he wished. As for their relationship, someone bent on achieving great things shouldn’t bother with trifles. Losing a useless elder brother was no big deal; what mattered was that with Zhang Tianci’s death, he would command the entire Zhang Group.

”Lu Tianxing, should I thank you this time? You even got rid of a nuisance for me.”

Zhang Tianfeng murmured softly, his eyes emitting a chilling light. Lu Tianxing had foiled his plans repeatedly. No matter what, Lu Tianxing must die.

...

Sales Department of Bai’s Group.

Under the resentful and embarrassed gaze of Lin Qianru, Lu Tianxing walked out of the manager’s office with a triumphant smile.

Thinking about Lin Qianru’s shy demeanor, a brighter smile bloomed on Lu Tianxing’s face, and he hummed a tune as he walked toward the elevator and pressed the button, waiting for it to arrive.

”Hmph, you pervert.”

After a moment, just as the elevator doors opened, Lu Tianxing heard an indignant voice carrying a strong note of disdain.

Lu Tianxing instinctively looked toward the elevator and saw Little Mei, Lan Xin, holding a file, looking at him with evident disdain.

”Pervert? Where’s the pervert, Little Mei? You must be seeing things! There’s no pervert here, just a handsome guy.”

Lu Tianxing pretended to be flustered, looking around.

”Hmph, I haven’t seen any handsome guy, only a sleazy pervert with a sleazy smile. Such a man should be eradicated,” Lan Xin said with disdain.

”Hey, Little Mei, you’re wrong about me now. Where am I a pervert? If you don’t explain yourself, do you believe I’ll sue you for defamation?” Lu Tianxing said, annoyed.

”Then go ahead and sue me in court,” Lan Xin scoffed with a dismissive laugh, tossing the file onto Lu Tianxing: ”This mission is assigned to you personally by the chairman, asking you to meet her this afternoon to secure a partnership with our company.”

Lu Tianxing paused slightly, ”A partnership? What kind of partnership?”

”You don’t need to know that. Just convince her to collaborate with our company. Don’t ask about anything else; it’s confidential work information you’re not privy to. The contract is already prepared for you, sandwiched in the document. If she agrees, just have her sign it.”

After saying this, Lan Xin didn’t linger, immediately hitting the button to close the elevator doors. She didn’t want to hear Lu Tianxing’s words anymore, fearing that if he continued, she might be unable to resist pulling off her shoe to stuff his mouth, especially since she didn’t have her anti-wolf stun device with her, what if he tried to take advantage of her?

Seeing Lan Xin’s eagerness to leave, Lu Tianxing’s face fell, clearly reading her actions as treating him strictly like a pervert.

Lu Tianxing watched Lan Xin silently and sighed deeply, saying, ”Ah, Little Mei, there’s really no need for you to do this. Honestly, even if I wanted to harass you, I wouldn’t have the heart. Tell me, is there anything about you worth making a move?”

As he spoke, Lu Tianxing’s gaze swept over Lan Xin before he sighed deeply again and walked toward another elevator.

”I really want to tear your mouth apart, poke out your eyes...”

Feeling Lu Tianxing’s gaze, Lan Xin trembled with rage. She wanted to drag him down with her.

She thought about rushing out to teach Lu Tianxing a lesson, but could only watch helplessly as the elevator doors closed.

Standing in the elevator, Lan Xin stamped her foot indignantly and murmured softly, ”Bastard, just you wait, I won’t let you get away with this.”
