Chapter 454: Chapter 455: The Sisters’ Backgrounds

Zhang Yanling whispered into Lin Chen’s ear, ”Recently, the Xiao family has encountered major trouble. Their family business was nearly crushed into bankruptcy, and the offender’s sole goal is to make the Xiao sisters become servants to the young master Xu Qing of the Xu family. I heard that the Xiao family has already agreed to the demand. I expect people from both the Xiao and Xu families will come to take the Xiao sisters away in the next few days.”

”What? Doesn’t the old master of the Xiao family adore his granddaughters?” Lin Chen furrowed his brow and asked.

Originally, the old master of the Xiao family had personally requested that Dragon’s people protect his granddaughters. Now to push them into the fire pit himself, it simply didn’t make sense.

Zhang Yanling sighed, ”The Xiao family is so vulnerable because the old master passed away. It’s just that the Xiao family hasn’t announced the news yet.”

So that was it. Now everything made sense. The senior Xiao must have known his life was near its end, and knowing what his children and grandchildren were like, he had Dragon’s people protect the sisters.

No wonder Dragon had told him not to allow anyone to harm the Xiao sisters. ’Anyone’ must have included the Xiao family themselves.

Seeing Lin Chen deep in thought, Zhang Yanling smiled and said, ”Although this matter is somewhat tricky, our Zhang family can intervene and settle it if you can’t handle it. Just give me a call. We can help you, but of course, not for free!”

With that, Zhang Yanling cheerfully waved her hand and left the counter with Peiqi.

The Xiao sisters. Why does the Xu family insist on taking the Xiao sisters? And why is my origin related to these sisters!

Forget it, let’s not think about it anymore. Fight the soldiers if they come, block the water if it floods. Since that predecessor said I could find clues about my origins from these sisters, just staying close to them and protecting them should be right.

...

Once the two people left the mall, inside the car, Xiao Zixuan rested her cheek on her hand, looking at Lin Chen with curiosity.

She had never imagined that this young man was the renowned Mr. Lin, the chairman of the Starlight Group.

Lin Chen had always been a mysterious figure outside, never even appearing in online photos or reports. But everyone knew there was a mysterious person behind steering this colossal business ship.

Now this mysterious person, her once idol, was right beside her—the most important thing being that this person was also her bodyguard, making Xiao Zixuan feel as unreal as a dream.

”Hey, why are you always staring at me?” Lin Chen asked, helplessly.

Xiao Zixuan smiled faintly, ”I feel quite honored. To think that Mr. Lin, the chairman, would be my bodyguard.”

Lin Chen laughed helplessly, ”Mr. Lin, the chairman? I’m just a nameholder, actually.”

”Oh, so you have so much money, yet you are here as my bodyguard. Honestly, what are your intentions?” Xiao Zixuan suddenly asked.

Lin Chen glanced at Xiao Zixuan and then laughed, ”What if I said I wanted to woo you, would you believe me?”

Xiao Zixuan glared at Lin Chen, ”Possibly, you big womanizer. Successful in business and now hunting for romance!”

Damn it, Lin Chen was frustrated. Was this really how he appeared in this woman’s eyes?

”By the way, why did you leave the Xiao family?” Lin Chen suddenly asked.

Hearing Lin Chen’s words, Xiao Zixuan’s expression shifted slightly as she said, ”Since the day my father disappeared, the Xiao family and we sisters have had nothing to do with each other.”

It turned out the Xiao sisters once had a happy family, with parents who loved them dearly. However, one day, their father suddenly left and never returned.

The people in the Xiao family claimed that the father had stolen the family’s ancient secret technique, and so the sisters were ostracized within the family.

If it weren’t for their grandfather, Xiao Bo, who always looked after them, the two sisters might not even have had basic living expenses.

Finally, after Xiao Zixuan graduated from college, she and her sister left the Xiao family. Relying on their own efforts, they established their current company.

Now Lin Chen finally understood why the Xiao sisters were so hostile towards the bodyguards sent by the Dragon group. They must have thought they were sent by the Xiao family to watch them, which is why they tried every means to drive them away.

”Oh, so that’s it!” Lin Chen nodded.

”Why are you suddenly asking about these things?” Xiao Zixuan asked, puzzled.

Lin Chen smiled and said, ”It’s nothing, just curious.”

Looking at Xiao Zixuan’s sweet smile, Lin Chen made up his mind to protect these sisters no matter what.

Back at the company, Lin Chen changed into a suit and quickly charmed all the beauties in the office.

Lin Chen was incredibly busy that day; whether a computer broke, a chair broke, or even if there were cockroaches in the bathroom, everyone directly called Lin Chen to deal with it.

Of course, solving problems was just a pretext, flirting with the handsome guy was the real motive.

However, Lin Chen didn’t mind at all, spending the whole day immersed in the scent of women.

Lin Chen had truly fallen in love with this job, fallen for Yue Lai Group.

Mmm, he should probably talk to Xue Ying in the future; the company should also adopt this business model.

As the afternoon was about to end, Lin Chen’s phone kept ringing, all from beauties inviting him to dinner.

Unfortunately, he had to accompany his boss to a banquet that evening, so Lin Chen had to painfully decline these invitations.

Right after work, Xiao Zixuan’s call came through.

Lin Chen drove towards the Huangpu Grand Hotel.

”Lin Chen, today’s banquet is very important, you could say it’s related to our company’s future fate, so please don’t cause any trouble!” Xiao Zixuan instructed.

Lin Chen smiled lightly, ”I’m quite a peaceful person, and with so many beauties and delicious food around, where would I find the time to cause trouble!”

”Hmph, good to know, just pretend to be my partner for the night, eat more and talk less, understood?” Xiao Zixuan instructed.

”Don’t worry, mission guaranteed,” Lin Chen said with a smile, making a zipping gesture over his mouth.

Today, luxury cars were gathered at the entrance of the Huangpu Hotel, where the opening ceremony for the World Fashion Tour’s Shanghai station was to be held.

Participating in this tour were not only local celebrities and major players from the fashion world but also countless film and TV stars, making it a high-profile event.

This fashion show was a takeoff opportunity for the participating apparel companies; if they could sign a contract with a renowned designer, they could use this chance to rapidly ascend. If they couldn’t secure a deal, they would remain suppressed by others, and might even struggle to rise again in the future.

After getting out of the car, Xiao Zixuan naturally took Lin Chen’s arm.

Looking at the red carpet in front of him, Lin Chen felt a bit of excitement.

Is this the legendary red carpet walk?

Xiao Zixuan and Lin Chen walked down the red carpet with smiles, and indeed, the feeling of being the center of attention was incredibly exhilarating.

After crossing the red carpet, Xiao Zixuan and Lin Chen entered the bustling reception hall.

Xiao Zixuan greeted the guests she knew with a bright smile, when suddenly a teasing voice came from behind them.

”Zixuan, your taste has really dropped, fancying such a pretty boy now,”

What the heck, do I really look like a pretty boy? Today, I’ve already been called a pretty boy several times, and finally, Lin Chen was furious.
