Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 675: Chapter 649: Disguised Identity Exposed at a Glance

The power of psychological suggestion took immediate effect. Following Chen Xiaoqian’s instructions, Ye Xiaoyu suggested to Ye Daqian, who got angry and humiliated on the spot and drove Ye Xiaoyu away, claiming he never wanted to see her again.

But that night, Ye Daqian started having nightmares.

He dreamed of turning into a dog with just one testicle and got beaten up everywhere he went.

He woke up in a cold sweat.

It was just a coincidence, right...

Ye Daqian was unaware that this was merely the beginning of his nightmares. From now on, he would have nightmares every day, all sorts of elaborate nightmares. Even during the day, he would experience flashbacks in his mind, constantly thinking of the scenes of being bitten by a dog. Post-traumatic stress disorder—this happens not only to good people but to bad ones too.

This was similar to Weiwei’s reaction after her first violent assault by him; this is called karma.

After using Ye Xiaoyu to make a significant move, Qian contentedly went back to continue treating Weiwei. Ye Daqian’s apology was only a matter of time; the child’s illness would soon be under control.

Liumei encountered some issues and was hoping Qian could accompany her to make a decision. However, since Shuixian was about to come over, Qian gave Liumei some advice to handle it herself and then rushed over to meet Shuixian.

Shuixian arrived on the third morning, and Qian arranged to meet her at her new home.

Teng Shuixian’s first thing after getting off the plane was to come and see Qian, showing the significance of this sisterhood in her heart.

”Qian’er! Over here!” Teng Shuixian waved from the car, while Qian waited at the entrance of the upscale community where one can’t get in without a guide.

Qian got into Shuixian’s car and took her to her future new home.

”Did you bring everything?” Qian asked Shuixian.

”I brought everything. I went abroad just to bring you stuff, two large boxes—I mean, Qian’er, why do you need so many renovation books?”

Qian gave her a mysterious smile, meaning she’d understand soon enough.

Getting off the car downstairs, the bodyguard who was driving got out to open the trunk and take out the boxes. Qian hadn’t noticed him until she got off the car, and she immediately felt something wasn’t right.

Why did this person’s face look so familiar? Where had she seen him before?

The man carrying boxes for Shuixian seemed to have Middle Eastern ancestry, with distinct facial features, a height similar to Yu Minglang, wearing black sportswear with sunglasses, and a black fingerless glove on his right hand. As Qian looked at him, he was also looking at her, and they stared at each other for a long time.

The man noticed Qian wasn’t fazed by his presence and took a closer look at her, realizing instantly that this woman was unusual, being able to confront and stare straight into his eyes.

Qian finally remembered who he was.

She couldn’t believe she was seeing this guy alive in her lifetime; why was he dressed like that and carrying boxes for Shuixian?

”Why are you staring at my bodyguard? Do you know him?” Shuixian asked Qian.

”Bodyguard?” Qian smirked; this was one of the funniest jokes she heard since her rebirth.

”My dad didn’t tell you? I changed bodyguards.” Shuixian’s father, Teng Daye, was Qian’s godfather, constantly staying in touch with Qian.

Initially, Teng Daye wanted to find a capable assistant for his daughter, but now he can’t do without Qian, not just for business matters, discussing opponents’ psychology, but also for family matters.

He’s not just a strategist but a partner; the Teng Family can’t do without Qian, just as Mr. Yu seeks her advice on matters.

”I knew you changed bodyguards, but I didn’t expect—” it was this person.

As Qian examined the man, he was also observing her, their gazes clashing in midair.

”Have I met you before?” Mahadi was finally unnerved by Qian’s scrutiny. He knew the close ties between the Teng Family father and daughter and Chen Xiaoqian. Initially, he thought a woman in her early twenties couldn’t be very capable.

Mahadi previously believed Chen Xiaoqian tricked the Teng Family father and daughter using some psychological suggestion.

But upon seeing Qian today, he realized her gaze seemed to penetrate the whole world, and nothing could be concealed from her.

”No, you haven’t met me.” Qian added in her mind, but I’ve seen you.

Mahadi sensed Qian wasn’t ordinary and Qian could easily see through his disguise.

What kind of nonsense bodyguard was he; this guy clearly had a mysterious background. What could his intention be posing as a bodyguard lurking around Shuixian?

These two were equally complicated characters, each speculating about the other’s motives, with the only person kept in the dark being Shuixian.

The intense involvement ended when Qian pushed open the door to her new home.

Teng Shuixian and the box-carrying Mahadi were both shocked.

Seeing their expressions finally brought Qian balance.

She wasn’t the only one shocked by Xiaoqiang’s green PVC flooring; she wasn’t alone!

”Now you know why I need renovation books?”

”My gosh! Qian’er, what are you up to? Are you broke and planning to open a gym?”

Teng Shuixian poked and prodded at the green flooring, curious about the surreal visual effect!

”Would you come if a gym looked like this?” Qian sneered.

Shuixian shook her head, no way she’d come to such a dark-themed gym.

”Drop the stuff off in the car and wait for me.” Shuixian instructed her bodyguard Mahadi.

”The chairman said I must stay close, or else I’m fired.” Mahadi said this but his gaze remained in the uniquely decorated room.

Could he have been mistaken, and Chen Xiaoqian wasn’t as formidable as he imagined? The Teng Family’s top advisor surely wouldn’t have such aesthetic tastes, would they?

Or perhaps... living in such a room would expand one’s thoughts?

Qian was secretly satisfied upon seeing his expression.

Xiaoqiang’s bizarre renovation had bewildered even this guy, making it worthwhile.

”This place is very secure, perhaps one of the safest neighborhoods domestically.” Shuixian wanted to talk to Qian alone, but her bodyguard was sticking like glue, never leaving her side.

”Or I’ll be fired.” Mahadi’s peripheral vision caught Qian chuckling.

This woman... He was starting to suspect whether he was exposed. Chen Xiaoqian’s gaze indicated she saw through everything; her smile seemed to mean: Just keep pretending!

Shuixian pointed at his head, ”Leave now, or I’ll fire you!”

”You’re not in charge; I only listen to the chairman.”

”Get, out, now!!!”

The bodyguard was finally kicked out, and Shuixian angrily patted her chest, ”Where did my dad find such a blockhead, claiming he’s an M Country retired agent, supposedly with an exceptional background, it’s suffocating me!”

”Haha.” Qian now had only two words to describe her mood: retired agent?

This was utter nonsense.
