Absolute Beauty CEO and Her Bodyguard - Chapter 5：Miss Su Lin

In a flash, one week had passed.

Ling Chen was still his usual self, after getting off from work every day he would bring home beer and a few braised dishes, per his daily routine. It was until one morning when a sudden phone call woke him from the land of dreams.

“Boss, I’m on leave today. You…”

“Hurry up and scram back here! If you don’t come, then my company will be destroyed by these people!”

Hearing his boss adopting such a grave tone, Ling Chen did not dare to dally. After all, this matter had to do with his livelihood. Hurriedly splashing some water onto his face, Ling Chen rushed back to his company, not even bothering to brush his teeth.

The company he worked at was situated in the old city district and was within close proximity of his apartment. A ten minutes walk was sufficient to get there.

At the entrance of his company, Ling Chen was rooted to the ground in shock.

Outside the company, there were more than thirty men gathered. They were dressed smartly in black suits and exuded a murderous aura that seemed to make the atmosphere incredibly stifling.

“Where did all these bodyguards come from?” he mused to himself, his eyes darting around and studying his environment. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, and he noticed a white Maserati parked at the curb.

“It’s her!”

Ling Chen immediately came to the realisation that the long-legged beauty had actually come, bringing trouble all the way to his company. The lass is really persistent… no, she should be considered a resentful ghost that I can’t shake off!

Women really are vengeful creatures.

“So, you finally showed up.”

Hearing that irritating voice again, Ling Chen didn’t even need to think to know who the culprit was. As he turned his head, he saw Su Lin strolling out of the company and smilingly waved towards her. “Yo, isn’t it Miss Su? What a coincidence.”

With that said, he turned to look at the flat-top youth beside her and studied him. “If I didn’t remember wrongly, you should be called Nanrong Hao.”

“Your memory isn’t too bad.” Su Lin coldly sneered, “Then you should remember the words you said to me that day.”

Ling Chen feigned ignorance and innocently said, “That day, I said many things, I don’t know what you are referring to. Why don’t you remind me?”

Nanrong Hao stood out and confidently proclaimed, “That day, you said that my cousin’s future son will have no…”

“Shut up!” Su Lin viciously glared at Nanrong Hao, killing intent brimming in her eyes. If not for the fact that Nanrong Hao was her cousin, she would have long slapped him. How could there be such an idiot in this world?

Bearing the full brunt of his cousin’s murderous stare, sweat matted Nanrong Hao’s forehead. He quickly lowered his head, not daring to meet her gaze. His older sister and cousin were people that he did not dare to offend.

“Miss Su, I didn’t know you to be such a small-minded person. I only casually said something yet you’re still holding a grudge against me. Furthermore, you were the one at fault in the first place, but you’re still finding trouble with me. Where’s the justice in that?”

“You dare say that I’m a small-minded woman?!” Su Lin fumed with rage. This bastard obviously had a venomous tongue, daring to slander her. From a young age, she had always been pampered, and no one had ever spoken to her that way.

Ling Chen lecherously stared at her ample bosom and said self-righteously, “Well, whether you’re small-minded or not remains to be seen. I believe the only way to find out is for you to strip and let me inspect you.”

This fella… Nanrong Hao stared at Ling Chen with his mouth agape, hardly believing what he just heard. He actually dared to tease Cousin like that. Damn, he’s in trouble now, knowing her fiery temple, she’ll explode for sure!

“You!” Su Lin’s face was flushed red, and she wagged her finger at Ling Chen but was unable to say anything due to her pure unadulterated rage. No, I must calm down!

Taking a deep breath, Su Lin gnashed her teeth and glared at Ling Chen. “Ling Chen, you ruffian, aren’t you good at fighting? Today I brought so many men, if you really possess the capability then I would like to see you beat all of them!”

Ling Chen shrugged his shoulders in response. The opponent was able to trace the invoice back to the courier company, so knowing his name was nothing surprising.

Looking at the encirclement of the dozens of bodyguards, however, Ling Chen felt despondent. He really didn’t want to waste time and energy sparring with these people.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we are all people of culture. Why don’t we just calm down and talk things through rationally?” Ling Chen forced out a smile and placatingly said.

“Stop spouting nonsense!” Su Lin frostily cut him off. “Today, there will only be two outcomes: either you’re the one kneeling on the ground, or they’re the ones kneeling. You have no other options!”

“But you have so many people, doesn’t this seem a little… unfair?”

“I just want to bully you with numbers. Why, do you have anything against that?” Su Lin thought that Ling Chen had chickened out at the thought of fighting so many people and cruelly taunted him.

Nanrong Hao also laughed darkly, a gloating expression written over his face, that seemed to say, ‘You’re dead for sure!’

Wanting to tease Cousin? You’re digging your own grave!

“This afternoon sure is hot! Why are you gentlemen all gathered around here? Hmm, why isn’t it Bro Chen? What are you doing over here?”

Ling Chen turned his head towards the source of the voice and found Jiang Hao walking over, with a bunch of his underlings.

“What are you doing here? ”

Jiang Hao smilingly answered, “Bro Chen, don’t tell me that you’ve forgotten this street is under my jurisdiction now?”

Ling Chen slapped his forehead. Right, how could I forget? The Five Mile Street that Jiang Hao extorted from Zhao Zhengxiong, wasn’t that the street his company was located on?

No wonder he hadn’t seen Jiang Hao and his gang for the last few days, they were all busy over here.

“Bro Chen, what do these people want with you?” Jiang Hao saw that the bodyguards were menacingly encircling Ling Chen, with malicious intent practically oozing from their body he couldn’t resist asking Ling Chen.

Ling Chen pulled a face, looking as though he had been wronged. “These people are trying to find trouble and use their numbers to bully the poor old me. ”

“Using their numbers, huh? “Jiang Han disdainfully looked at them and smirked at the thirty-odd bodyguards. “All of you sure have the guts to mess with my Big Bro Chen. If you want to use numbers, then I’ll show you numbers! Brothers, let’s go!”

With Jiang Hao’s command, dozens of men started streaming out from the nearby billiard hall and arcade. In addition to the underlings that Jiang Hao initially brought with him, there were now seventy, nearing eighty, people surrounding the bodyguards. Those with weapons brandished them menacingly, while those without found bricks that were lying around.

Su Lin and Nanrong Hao were instantly stunned.

This reversal… seemed to be too fast and drastic!

Nanrong Hao felt like crying, but his tears refused to come. If he had known the scene before him now would happen, he would have refused to go with his cousin to stir trouble no matter the consequences.

“What’s there to be afraid of?” Su Lin fumed. “All of you are professionals that I spent a large amount of money to hire! Don’t tell me that you can’t even deal with these lowlifes?”

The bodyguards however, remained silent, not daring to reply to her. They all came empty-handed, but the opponent not only had the advantage in numbers, but they were also armed with weapons and bricks. They were afraid that once the fighting began, they would be the ones getting the short end of the stick.

“Miss Su, we are all people of culture. We can just talk things through amicably, no need to resort to violence. That would not benefit anyone.” Ling Chen smilingly repeated himself.

Hearing his words, Jiang Hao and the rest could not resist snickering.

They had been acquainted with Ling Chen for a while now and understood his character well. His lips might be saying that they were all people of culture, but when he made a move, he would be more vicious and heavy-handed than anyone present.

Su Lin observed the faces of her bodyguards and knew that she would be suffering a loss today. She could only lament her own misfortune.

“Ling Chen, don’t be happy for too long! Sooner or later, I’ll teach you a lesson!” Spitting out a warning at Ling Chen, Su Lin huffily turned and walked towards her Maserati.

Nanrong Hao anxiously shouted, “Cousin, don’t leave me behind!”

“Go find your own way back.” Was the cold reply Su Lin gave before she slammed her car door shut and drove off, leaving Nanrong Hao dumbfounded.

“How tragic, your cousin actually abandoned you just like that.” Ling Chen walked to his side and shook his head sorrowfully.

Nanrong Hao was flustered and stammered, “Wh… what do you want? Let me warn you if you dare to touch a single strand of hair on my head, my elder sister definitely not let you off!”
