The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 112: Just a Beat
"Crack!"

Gao Yong's left arm snapped cleanly with a crisp sound.

Gao Yong clenched his teeth, his face turned as red as blood, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat, but he didn't utter a single groan.

Thinking back to that stormy night, when Xue Kuangren came to Yutian Sect alone and almost wiped out the entire sect, Gao Long's heart trembled.

What sins have I committed to offend Xue Kuangren's disciple?

An arm can be reattached if it's broken, but if you lose your life, you truly have nothing left.

Losing only an arm but surviving is worth it!
"Mr. Lin, are you satisfied now?"

Lin Chen nodded calmly: "Alright... let's get started."

Gao Yong breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, and dragged his severed arm toward the Zhao family father and son.

Lin Chen didn't record the conversation on his phone because he knew very well that Gao Yong wouldn't dare to play tricks on him. Since Gao Yong only had one life, killing him would be as easy as turning his hand.

Killing a public figure like Zhao Yiheng, who has influence in society, might cause trouble, but killing a reclusive cultivator like Gao Yong wouldn't cause the slightest trouble at all.

Master almost wiped out the Yutian Sect back then, but he got away scot-free, didn't he?

If Gao Yong dares to fool me, then I dare to do what my master did and go through Yutian Sect again, so that they can experience terror once more.

The insults from the Zhao family father and son came to an abrupt end.

Gao Yong showed no mercy in order to save his own life.

Gao Yong turned his head and said respectfully, "Mr. Lin, if there are no other instructions, you can leave now. I will handle their bodies and the follow-up matters, and I will ensure that Mr. Lin is not disturbed in the slightest."

Lin Chen nodded calmly: "Remember what you said, otherwise, I will visit you at the Yutian Sect."

Gao Yong was startled and quickly bowed, saying, "Mr. Lin, I mean what I say, please rest assured."

Lin Chen turned and left, and only then did Gao Yong dare to straighten up and let out a long breath.

Looking at the corpses of Zhao's father and son, Gao Yong cursed inwardly, "You two really deserve to die. Of all people to mess with, you had to provoke Xue Kuangren, that killer's disciple. You almost killed me. You deserve to die!"
Xue Kuangren is so ruthless, would his disciples be easy to mess with?

Gao Yong took out his phone and dialed the sect leader's number.

He had to report this matter quickly, and also smooth out the subsequent impact. He also needed the sect leader to pass on a message to the important figures in the province.

……

When Lin Chen returned home, Chu Jiaxue was sitting on the bed watching TV.

She was waiting for him. Although she didn't know what Lin Chen had gone out to do, Lin Chen had said that he would verify some of his conjectures tonight, and after tonight, he would know how to resolve their current predicament.

"You're back?"

Chu Jiaxue stood up, her eyes showing a hint of anticipation.

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Waiting for me?"

Chu Jiaxue nodded shyly: "I can't sleep when I'm thinking about things."

Lin Chen didn't keep them in suspense and asked directly, "Does the Chu family currently have the funds to acquire shares from other people?"

Chu Jiaxue was taken aback for a moment: "No."

Lin Chen frowned. This was a good opportunity for the Chu family, but if they couldn't come up with that much money, there was nothing they could do. Those people wanted to sell their shares, and although the price would be very low, they would definitely require cash payment.

Seeing Lin Chen's furrowed brows, Chu Jiaxue felt uneasy and asked nervously, "Why do you ask that? What happened?"

Lin Chen didn't hide anything from her: "The person behind Sun Ye is Zhao Yiheng of Aotian Group. He instructed Sun Ye to make things difficult for Chuhe Group, and at the same time, he had Qian Buyi create panic among the shareholders, inducing them and even you to sell your shares at a low price. The acquiring party is Aotian Group. Even if they can't acquire your shares, they can still get other people's shares and Qian Buyi can have the final say and directly drive you out of Chuhe."

Chu Jiaxue clenched her fists: "It's him again!"

Lin Chen said with a hint of regret, "If you have enough funds, you can take advantage of the situation to acquire other people's shares at a low price, but if you don't have the funds, it won't work."

Chu Jiaxue said with a wry smile, "Their shares add up to too much. Even at a low price, it would cost at least several hundred million to acquire them. The Chu family can't afford that much money."

Lin Chen wasn't surprised, after all, share value is share value and cash is cash, they are two different things.

Lin Chen smiled and comforted him, "Don't worry about this. Just pretend you don't know anything. I'll ask around tomorrow and see how to proceed."

Chu Jiaxue was at a loss and could only let Lin Chen do the work: "Thank you for your help."

Lin Chen shook his head: "I don't know if it will work, but even in the worst-case scenario, things will remain the same. The company won't stop production, so don't worry."

Chu Jiaxue's feelings were complicated, a mixture of relief and sadness: "I'm so useless. The company is in trouble, and there's nothing I can do."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Don't underestimate yourself. Your ability lies in company management and development, not in backstabbing and scheming. Besides, you and your opponent are not on the same level. It's normal for you to feel powerless."

Chu Jiaxue stared at Lin Chen: "But why are you so amazing? In such a short time, you've figured out so many things that I don't understand, and you even have ways to solve them."

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "Because I'm really good at fighting. People who resort to tricks and schemes are always human. If you drag them out and beat them up, the problem is usually solved."
