Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

38: Chapter 37 You’re Too Sneaky 38: Chapter 37 You’re Too Sneaky As a few thugs steadily advanced, Lu Tianxing signaled Lin Qianru to stand behind him.

He watched the approaching men with an icy gaze, speaking with a tone as flat as plain water, “To be honest, I don’t care whether you repay Bai’s Group or not, but you should never have entertained other ideas.

I initially thought of you as a joke, but unfortunately, you chose to dig your own grave.”

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Before his words faded, Lu Tianxing’s figure vanished like a ghost.

Immediately after, a series of dull thuds were heard, and the thugs didn’t even have the chance to scream before their bodies were flung into the air, crashing forcefully against the wall, blood spurting from their mouths — the scene was bloody and savage.

By the time Lu Tianxing returned to his original spot, only three people were left standing in the room.

“Who…

who are you exactly?”

Guo Zheng’s face changed drastically, his voice trembling as he looked at Lu Tianxing with terror, as if he’d seen a ghost.

Lu Tianxing revealed an innocuous smile and said, “Lu Tianxing, just a security guard from Bai’s Group.

Manager Guo certainly wouldn’t recognize a nobody like me.

However, I’d like to know how Manager Guo plans to settle this.”

“Settle my ass!

I’m telling you, this isn’t over!

You dare to hit me; I’ll make sure someone kills you.

And Lin Qianru, you fucking bitch, I’ll fucking…”

Guo Zheng’s face contorted as he cursed loudly.

“Slap!”

Before Guo Zheng could finish, Lu Tianxing stepped forward and, without any courtesy, slapped him across the face.

Guo Zheng was suddenly struck, and it took him a moment to regain his senses.

Feeling the scorching pain on his face, he covered his left cheek, looking at Lu Tianxing with disbelief and stammered, “You…

you dare to hit me?

You must have a death wish.

I…”

“Slap!”

Another crisp slap sounded, this time with even more force.

Guo Zheng’s obese body was sent flying like a baseball, pulled out of the air.

“Ah…ugh…”

Guo Zheng, experiencing the sensation of flying mid-air, had a twisted expression, his mouth agape, as blood gushed forth and several teeth mixed with blood sprayed out from his mouth, his cheek visibly swelling at an alarming rate.

“Lu Tianxing, this…” Lin Qianru frowned, speaking with a hint of pity.

“President Lin, a person like him isn’t worth your sympathy.

Just think about what you would have faced if I weren’t here.

Losing your virtue might be the best outcome.

I’m just afraid this guy has other plans and means waiting for you,” Lu Tianxing said.

Lin Qianru’s face turned deathly pale instantly, grasping Lu Tianxing’s implication.

Losing her virtue was indeed the better outcome.

Perhaps the other party would even take photos; if that happened, her life would be utterly ruined.

Lin Qianru’s face changed, but she soon regained her composure and fell silent.

Lu Tianxing glanced at Lin Qianru before slowly walking towards Guo Zheng.

“What…

what do you want to do?

Don’t come any closer, stay back, you…

if you come any closer, I might call the police,” Guo Zheng fearfully exclaimed, his body shrinking back continuously.

“Call the police?

No problem, I’ll give you the chance to call them.

However, when they arrive, whether they find a living person or a corpse that ‘committed suicide out of guilt,’ I can’t guarantee,” Lu Tianxing said with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile as he looked at Guo Zheng.

Devil!

Devil!

This man was a devil.

Guo Zheng looked at the smile on Lu Tianxing’s face, a chill spread through his body, and he felt as if he had fallen into an icy cave, his soul nearly frozen stiff.

That smile, in his eyes, was no less sinister than the grin of the Grim Reaper himself.

Guo Zheng had no doubt that Lu Tianxing could kill him.

“I…I’ll pay.”

Guo Zheng finally conceded.

A smart man doesn’t suffer immediate losses—he would deal with Lu Tianxing later.

Revenge, as the saying goes, is a dish best served cold.

“That’s better.”

Lu Tianxing smiled faintly, reverting to that innocent appearance and said, “Manager Guo is indeed decisive.

Given the threats your company has made against me and President Lin, resulting in our emotional distress, in addition to the final payment of six hundred thousand, you will need to compensate us for emotional damages.

Not more, not less, let’s make it a neat one million.

What do you say, Manager Guo?”

“You…”

Guo Zheng was so angry he was almost spitting blood.

What kind of emotional damages require a compensation of four hundred thousand?

Is your emotional well-being made of gold?

“What ‘you’?

You won’t pay?

No problem.

I see your knees seem a bit bent, Manager Guo.

Perhaps, I should help you straighten them out.”

Lu Tianxing interrupted Guo Zheng, his gaze falling on his knees.

“No, no, don’t, stop, I’ll pay, I’ll pay right now,” Guo Zheng’s face went pale, he begged with snot and tears.

Only then did Lu Tianxing smile with satisfaction: “The wise adapt to circumstances.

Manager Guo is a real man, forthright indeed.

I was thinking of asking for less, but it seems unnecessary now.

President Lin, give him our company’s account details so the final six hundred thousand can be transferred to our corporate account.

The remaining four hundred thousand will go to your personal account, President Lin, as compensation for the intimidation you just faced.”

Lin Qianru was taken aback, “Lu Tianxing, this is extortion.”

“Extortion?

It only counts as extortion if the other party is unwilling, but it seems Manager Guo is quite happy to comply, aren’t you, Manager Guo?”

“Yes, yes, President Lin.

I voluntarily compensate you four hundred thousand for the emotional distress.”

“…”

Ten minutes later, Lu Tianxing and Lin Qianru slowly walked out of Hongfa Clothing Co., Ltd.

Just as they exited the office building, they heard the sound of police sirens in the distance, rapidly approaching.

“Lu Tianxing, you are much more devious than I imagined,” Lin Qianru said.

“I’m just looking out for you, President Lin.

That guy clearly won’t let things go; who knows if he might seek revenge later.

So I casually called the police.

I’ve already shown mercy; otherwise, he’d be dead by now.

Plus, as long as he hasn’t done anything illegal, the police can’t touch him, right, President Lin?”

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Lin Qianru rolled her eyes speechlessly.

Guo Zheng, clean?

That would be a day.

Swindling others, keeping thugs—it looks like he’s going to be sentenced to several years in prison at the very least.

The red BMW raced along the road, Lin Qianru’s complexion hadn’t relaxed along the way, still fraught with residual fear.

If Lu Tianxing hadn’t been there today, her life would have been completely destroyed by the despicable Guo Zheng.

Weiwei turned her head to look at the man next to her, Lin Qianru’s pretty face blushing slightly.

Remembering how Lu Tianxing had held her, shielding her, she had felt an unprecedented sense of security that made her wish time would stop in that moment.

“President Lin, I know I’m handsome, but if you keep staring at me like that, even I will feel shy.

Besides, you’re driving.”

Lin Qianru let out a startled ‘ah’, snapped back to reality, and saw the man’s face appearing before her, looking at her with a teasing smile.

Her face instantly flushed red, and she quickly turned her head away.

To her embarrassment, the man had caught her daydreaming—how embarrassing.
