The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 172 Get out!

Chu Tianyu felt a little uneasy as Lin Chen stared at him.

There was no awe in Lin Chen's eyes, but rather a cold mockery.

Fearless.

Condescending.

This scene was just like the conversation he had with Gu Hongtao earlier, where he had a clear psychological advantage over Gu Hongtao.

This feeling secretly angered Chu Tianyu, making him feel humiliated.

Why?
As the eldest son of the Chu family, I am incredibly proud. I only backed down because I didn't want to offend a powerful cultivator. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?

A hint of hostility rose in Chu Tianyu's eyes: "I know you're capable, so I'm giving you some face, but don't think you can do whatever you want just because of that."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Chu Tianyu, I advise you to stay away from me and the Gu family. Otherwise, if I don't give you, the eldest son of the Chu family, any face, don't blame me."

Chu Tianyu sneered: "That sounds pretty scary. Tell me about your background and see if I'm scared."

Lin Chen said calmly, "I'm not a family heir or a young master. You don't have to give me face, but don't think I'm just trying to scare you. If something really happens, you, Chu Tianyu, might not be able to handle it."

Chu Tianyu sneered: "Such arrogance!"

"When you can't agree on something, you can't stop trying to be nice..."

Lin Chen tilted his chin: "Get lost!"

Chu Tianyu's eyes widened suddenly, his face filled with disbelief.

Lin Chen actually told him to get lost?

From childhood to adulthood, has anyone ever dared to speak to me like that?
Chu Tianyu laughed angrily: "You've got guts! You really have guts! We'll see!"

After finishing speaking, Chu Tianyu turned and left without waiting for Lin Chen's reaction.

Gu Hongtao, who was standing next to him, was completely terrified.

Lin Chen actually told Chu Tianyu to get lost?
That's the eldest son of the Chu family, the future heir of the Chu family!

Seeing the resentment and madness in Chu Tianyu's eyes as he left, Gu Hongtao broke out in a cold sweat.

Dead!
He turned his head and said with annoyance, "He had already given in, why did you provoke him again, Xiao Lin? The Chu family is wealthy and powerful. If you don't give him face, he will definitely hate you and take revenge on you later."

Lin Chen looked at Gu Hongtao, who was anxiously complaining about him, and a smile appeared on his face. It seemed that Gu Hongtao had truly accepted him now, treating him as one of his own and as his future son-in-law. Otherwise, why would he be so anxious? According to his previous thinking, if he were really dealt with by Chu Tianyu, wouldn't that be exactly what Gu Hongtao wanted?

Gu Yuexi knew that the Chu family was powerful and was initially worried, but when she looked up and saw the calm smile on Lin Chen's face, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

No problem!

Gu Yuexi smiled and comforted him, "Dad, don't worry. Lin Chen is very capable. Since he dared to say that to Chu Tianyu, it means he has the ability. He's not the kind of person who just brags."

Reassured by his daughter's words and recalling Lin Chen's usual composed demeanor, Gu Hongtao breathed a slight sigh of relief: "Little Lin, the Chu family is a well-known cultivation family in Linhai, with considerable influence..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "I know, it's okay, don't worry about me."

Bai Qian asked with concern, "Are you really alright? Clans like the Chu family are ruthless cultivators; they'll eat you alive. Even if they don't publicly retaliate, they have plenty of ways to do it behind the scenes..."

Lin Chen replied confidently, "Aunt Bai, don't worry, it's really nothing. The Chu family can't do anything to me."

Gu Hongtao looked surprised. Just who was Lin Chen? He didn't even take the Chu family seriously.
Just as Lin Chen was comforting the Gu couple, Gu Ziran quietly walked up to Chu Tianyu, whose face was cold and hard: "I just heard some news. Liu Zhenhao's partner for developing the commercial center in Pingjiang has been decided. It's Gu Hongtao's Haitao Real Estate."

Chu Tianyu's expression changed: "Isn't Haitao Real Estate a relatively small company?"

Gu Ziran nodded: "Indeed, there are quite a few real estate development companies in Pingjiang, but Haitao Real Estate can only be considered average."

Chu Tianyu's expression was uncertain, something was definitely amiss. Could it be because of Lin Chen?
No wonder Liu Zhenhao was so enthusiastic towards Gu Hongtao earlier, but his attitude towards Lin Chen was just so-so. He simply greeted him and didn't say anything more. That's unlikely.

Chu Tianyu thought for a moment, then turned and walked towards Liu Zhenhao, who was not far away.

"Mr. Liu."

Liu Zhenhao turned his head and smiled, "Mr. Chu, is there something you need?"

Chu Tianyu smiled and said, "I heard that President Liu is looking for a partner to collaborate on development?"

Liu Zhenhao smiled and said, "Yes, after all, my company is not located here. If we can cooperate with a local real estate company to develop it, it will save me a lot of trouble. The purpose of this dinner is to announce it in front of everyone so that everyone can stop guessing."

Chu Tianyu said with a smile, "I'd like to ask President Liu for a favor."

Liu Zhenhao looked suspicious. Was the person asking him this question at this time trying to interfere and want to cooperate with him in developing the commercial center?

"Mr. Chu, please tell me first."

Chu Tianyu stated bluntly, "Could we give this cooperation opportunity to the Chu family? Of course, the Chu family won't accept this favor for nothing; there will definitely be a return on their investment..."
