The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 124 Teasing to one's face?

"Brother, shall we have dinner together tonight?"

"it is good!"

Just before he was about to leave work, Lin Chen received a call from Gu Yuexi. Her voice was soft and sweet, making it impossible for him to refuse.

The last time I met Gu Yuexi was the night we were attacked by the four ferocious beasts, and our relationship has changed drastically since then.

Before, they were completely pretending to be lovers. Now that they've kissed, it would be irresponsible and self-deceiving to say it was all just pretense.

Lin Chen figured that if he went back, Chu Jiaxue would probably question him, so he decided to hide to avoid trouble.

Gu Yuexi had clearly dressed up deliberately today. She had her hair permed, wore an off-the-shoulder top with a short skirt, and strappy crystal high-heeled sandals. It was simple yet stylish. Her long, fair legs attracted the attention of countless men as she moved, and all eyes were on Lin Chen, filled with longing and envy.

Where are we going?

Gu Yuexi intimately linked arms with Lin Chen, no longer showing any restraint.

We were a fake couple before, but now we're going to be a real couple!

Although he has a three-month engagement with another woman, isn't that just a pretense?

Lin Chen is so capable and manly. If I don't grab this man soon, he'll have nothing to do with me in the future.

"Let's eat first, then go see a movie, okay?"

Lin Chen had originally planned to go back later, so he smiled and said, "Okay!"

As the two were eating, Gu Yuexi's phone suddenly rang.

"Hey Wenwen... she's eating... with her boyfriend..."

Gu Yuexi spoke for a few minutes on the phone, then covered the phone and said, "A friend of mine ran into some trouble and wants to meet me. She probably wants to talk to me about it. She seems quite upset. Can I ask her to come over?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Sure, I have no problem with that."

"Thank you, brother."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Yuexi explained, "She's a regular customer at my shop, about my age. We get along very well and often meet up for meals and shopping. We have a great relationship. She just called to say she was accompanying her boyfriend to a dinner party when a man there took a liking to her, touched her leg, and made suggestive remarks. She told her boyfriend about it while she was in the bathroom, feeling very wronged. But her boyfriend didn't care at all and excitedly told her how powerful and influential that man was. She was so angry that she ran out."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Indecent assault and harassment in public? It seems that her boyfriend doesn't care about her, but about the benefits he can get. You've made a mistake in choosing your friend."

Gu Yuexi smiled and said, "Brother, if I were in this situation, what would you do?"

Lin Chen chuckled and said, "Guess."

Gu Yuexi rested her chin on her hand and thought for a moment, "I can't guess, but I'm sure that man is in a terrible state. He probably won't even make it out of the hotel before he's headed straight to the hospital." Lin Chen laughed, "So much confidence in me?"

Gu Yuexi smiled smugly and lowered her voice: "I've been keeping an eye on Zhao Yiheng's news these past few days. I heard he was admitted to the hospital that very night, and two days later, he and his son died together, supposedly from falling off a cliff. Brother, did you do it?"

Lin Chen answered frankly, "Yes and no."

Gu Yuexi was immediately confused: "What do you mean?"

Lin Chen explained, "It was indeed me who beat Zhao Yiheng into the hospital. I spared his life to lure his son back. I was also there when they died. Originally, I was indeed prepared to kill them with my own hands, but something changed in the middle. Then someone else killed them, and I just watched."

Gu Yuexi's eyes lit up: "Sure enough, I guessed that falling off the cliff was just an excuse... Brother, Zhao Yiheng has a lot of influence, won't he be in trouble?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "It's not like I killed them, so what trouble could there be? Besides, someone will step in to suppress any trouble, so it's no problem."

Gu Yuexi looked at Lin Chen with admiration: "You're amazing! Haha, I really admire myself!"

Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Admire yourself?"

Gu Yuexi said triumphantly, "That's right. In this vast sea of ​​people, what are the odds of meeting you? If I hadn't taken the initiative, we would have just been strangers who met once. How could you have become my boyfriend? Don't you think I have a keen eye?"

Lin Chen was amused: "Yes, yes, you have a keen eye!"

Gu Yuexi's friend Ye Wen arrived quickly. She was a beautiful woman in her mid-twenties with slightly swollen eyes, as if she had just been crying.

After the introductions were finished, Ye Wen politely apologized first: "I'm sorry to have disturbed your date."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "It's alright, the more the merrier."

Gu Yuexi comforted him, "Eat something first. Men are just like that. If it works out, great; if not, break up. It's not a big deal."

Ye Wen sighed: "He and I were college classmates, and we dated for four years. He was very good to me, but what happened today has made me so sad."

Gu Yuexi asked curiously, "I remember your boyfriend's family is in the trading business, so they're quite well-off, aren't they?"

Ye Wen looked embarrassed. "It is good, but how should I put it? Compared to ordinary people, his family's conditions are naturally very good, but in the upper circles, his family is nothing. Moreover, the man who took a liking to me is the second young master of the Tian family..."

Gu Yuexi's eyes widened: "The Tian family? You're not talking about that Tian family, are you?"

Ye Wen smiled wryly: "Yes, it's that Tian family."

Gu Yuexi sighed: "That's really troublesome..."
