Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 1257: Chapter 1250: Farewell, Li Ya

Bai Zhiqing, upon seeing Li Lan approach, casually said, ”There’s no blame to place. I don’t care about formalities. Besides, I’m just here to take a look. Manager Li, how is your preparation coming along?”

”The chairman is ready, just waiting for the exhibition to start.”

At this point, Li Lan hesitated slightly and said, ”Chairman, the invitation for this jewelry exhibition was too rushed, so we couldn’t prepare much at all. So... So I took the liberty of showcasing our planned signature item for next year, the Year of the Monkey—our jade carving—as the highlight. Chairman, I know I was wrong in this matter, I didn’t inform you in advance, and made the decision rashly. After this jewelry exhibition is over, I will submit my resignation to the head office...”

Li Lan’s words were interrupted by Bai Zhiqing, ”You did nothing wrong. Jewelry is meant to be showcased; if it’s not displayed, no one will know about it—even if it’s the Heshibi. You did well. Bai’s jewelry company’s overseas market expansion has always been unsatisfactory; this time, we need to make a name for Bai’s jewelry company. Manager Li, I’m leaving this entire exhibition in your hands—don’t disappoint me, understood?”

”Understood, Mr. Bai, I promise not to disappoint you.”

Li Lan nodded heavily, her voice filled with surprise. In her mind, she was ready to resign. Based on Bai Zhiqing’s previous personality, if you dared to use company resources without reporting, you would be out of the door. But Li Lan didn’t expect Bai Zhiqing to forgive her this time and speak warmly, making her feel overwhelmed by the favor.

Thinking about this, Li Lan looked at Lu Tianxing beside Bai Zhiqing. Although she stayed overseas, she’d heard rumors—that Bai Zhiqing was married, to a man. Could this man beside Bai Zhiqing be her husband, the one who changed her?

Bai Zhiqing wasn’t aware of Li Lan’s complex thoughts, waving her hand, ”Alright, keep busy! I’ll use my U-coin to explore. If I need anything, I’ll call you.”

”Chairman, then I’ll leave.”

Li Lan abruptly came back to her senses, bowed respectfully, and headed aside.

”Wife, she is the manager of Bai’s jewelry company. Tsk tsk, quite good-looking—like a dear~sugar companion.” Lu Tianxing watched Li Lan’s back and commented.

”Oh, are you interested? Shall I introduce you two to each other?” Bai Zhiqing gave Lu Tianxing a sideways glance, speaking calmly.

”Um.”

Lu Tianxing was taken aback, immediately shook his head saying, ”No need, I was just speaking casually. It’s not easy for a woman to struggle abroad, better be careful. Those foreigners aren’t as gentlemanly as they say online.”

”Let’s hope so.”

Bai Zhiqing glanced at Lu Tianxing thoughtfully, ”But you’re right; it seems after this jewelry exhibition, our company should equip bodyguards. Bai’s Group’s security company’s first batch of security has been trained. We’ll send them to New York as a test to see if they’re qualified.”

As Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing chatted and strolled through the exhibition hall, a crisp voice suddenly rang out beside them, ”Zhiqing, we meet again. How do you like the exhibition hall I arranged for you?”

Upon hearing this crisp voice, Lu Tianxing and Bai Zhiqing immediately turned to see Li Ya, whom they had interacted with last night, approaching slowly from the side.

Today, Li Ya dressed particularly alluringly, in a pink cheongsam outlining her model-like figure.

This woman is an absolutely stunning Western beauty. Though she has a Western face, she embodies the virtues of Eastern women, leaving a stunning impression with just one glance.

Bai Zhiqing, upon seeing Li Ya come over, immediately lit up with a charming smile, ”Satisfied, of course, I’m satisfied. Li Ya, thank you so much this time.”

”Zhiqing, why so formal with me? I should thank you for teaching me Chinese back then!”

Li Ya walked over, gave Bai Zhiqing a hug, and kissed her cheek. Her captivating eyes fell on Lu Tianxing, with a peculiar glint, ”Mr. Lu, we meet again.”

Even now, Li Ya found it hard to believe the man before her is the feared Judge of the Western Underground World. Aside from sensing boundless killing intent in Lu Tianxing, she didn’t feel any other aura belonging to a strong figure.

”Yes, Ms. Li Ya, we meet again.”

Lu Tianxing, unaware of Li Ya’s thoughts, smiled gently at her and stepped forward, giving her a light hug before stepping back.

”Mr. Lu, are you interested in attending the jewelry exhibition today?” Li Ya asked, glancing at Lu Tianxing.

”If I say I’m not, would you be disappointed, Ms. Li Ya?”

”Of course, I would be! After all, I work in jewelry; I hope everyone in the world loves jewelry so we can have a market.” Li Ya joked.

”Ms. Li Ya, I might disappoint you; I don’t like jewelry, and I can’t afford it. I’m here with Zhiqing,” Lu Tianxing shrugged at Li Ya, saying.

Hearing this, Li Ya chuckled, her laughter lilting like flowers swaying, ”Mr. Lu, you do love to joke. If you can’t afford it, I doubt many in this world can.”

Lu Tianxing spread his hands, looking helpless, ”But it’s true, all my money was taken by Zhiqing. What I eat and use now is provided by Zhiqing; in modern terms, I’m a kept man.”

Just as Lu Tianxing’s words fell, a disdainful voice came from another direction, ”Hmph, talking so brazenly about being a kept man. This is the first time I’ve seen a man so thick-skinned. It’s laughable I once considered you a competitor. Now, you’re just this.”
