What age are you in, and you’re still a traditional villain?

Ye Chen left in a daze. When he reached the elevator, he remembered that he didn't have a work badge, so he couldn't take the elevator. He could only take the stairs. He carried the gifts he brought with him and walked up the same stairs as when he came.

The difference is that when he went upstairs, he looked very excited, and he climbed the stairs very lightly and walked very fast.

When he went downstairs, he looked dazed, as if his soul had been taken away from him. His steps were unsteady and he walked very slowly.

why?

Why would Ruyan reject me? Does she have a stronger bodyguard than me? After being rejected, Ye Chen's mind became empty and his thoughts were in a mess.

"Impossible, pairing is impossible."

Ye Chen shook his head and said self-deprecatingly: "How could there be a bodyguard more powerful than me?"

But why did Ruyan reject me so decisively, without leaving any room for negotiation?

If 'Liu Ruyan' was a girl with ordinary looks and figure, then he would have rejected her, but Liu Ruyan was so stunning that she could compete with his adopted mother.

"As the old saying goes, a drop of water should be repaid with a spring. Ruyan's life-saving kindness of giving me sweet potatoes is many times greater than a drop of water."

Ye Chen murmured to himself: "If I don't repay the favor of saving my life, then what's the difference between me and the wild dogs and wolves in the northwest."

This favor must be repaid.

But before that, he had to figure out why Liu Ruyan so decisively refused his offer of gratitude.

As soon as Ye Chen walked downstairs, he was blocked by the security guard who had just changed shifts at the revolving glass door of the New Era Building.

The bearded security guard looked at the young man in the glass door. He seemed to have no ID card and couldn't swipe his card to get out. He asked in confusion, "Where's your ID card?"

"Ah?" The corner of Ye Chen's mouth twitched inside the glass door. He didn't need his work badge to swipe his card when he came in, so why did he have to swipe his card to leave?

Don’t you have to swipe your card when you take the elevator?

"I said I forgot to bring it, do you believe me?"

The security guard nodded and opened the glass door for him: "Be careful next time. Use your ID card when you go out. This is the rule of New Era Building."

Ye Chen did not expect that this bearded security guard was so easy to talk to. Unlike the group of security guards he met when he came here, who mocked him, Ye Chen thought that the other party would open the door for him if they did not mock him. After saying "Be careful next time", he left with the gift.

After taking two steps, Ye Chen stepped back and said, "Brother, can I ask you something?"

"what's up?"

"Boss Liu Ruyan, do you work in this building?"

Hearing this, the security guard squinted his eyes and looked Ye Chen up and down. He was wearing common clothes, had an ordinary appearance, and was of an acceptable height. He was also carrying the common eight-treasure porridge and synthetic milk that are commonly seen in supermarkets...

"You are here for Boss Liu, right?" The security guard seemed to be used to it.

Ye Chen asked in confusion: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"

The security guard pointed to the building above his head and said, "Before, besides the white-collar workers who work here, only the couriers and deliverymen would come here. But now, all kinds of people come here to take a look. Do you know why?"

Ye Chen asked subconsciously: "Why?"

"Because of Boss Liu Ruyan." The security guard said with a look of "you really don't know" and started to explain: "Some time ago, Liu Ruyan took over the position of president of Liu Group. Many young bosses and some rich second-generations in Jiangnan City even moved their company headquarters to the New Era Building in order to win the heart of Boss Liu."

As expected of the woman I like, she is really charming... Ye Chen nodded in agreement, gave the security guard a cigarette and asked, "Boss Liu has so many suitors, so is she with any boss or rich second generation?"

The reason I talked so much with the security guard was because of this issue.

Ye Chen was worried that the reason why Liu Ruyan so decisively refused to let him be her personal bodyguard was because she already had a man.

With a cigarette in his mouth, the security guard started talking about sex: "Boss Liu has many suitors, but none of them have been successful."

Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Then the security guard said: "But..."

Ye Chen's expression instantly turned ugly. According to people's speaking habits, the words after "but" were definitely not good words.

In fact, it was true: "But in recent days, Boss Liu and Boss Cao have been very close..."

Ye Chen said expressionlessly: "Which Boss Cao?"

"Shh!" The security guard seemed to be frightened by the discussion of some taboo. He looked around and breathed a sigh of relief when he found that no one was around: "Keep your voice down! If you want to die, don't hold me back!"

The New Era Building belongs to the Cao family, and these security guards also receive salaries from the Cao family.

At a certain moment, the security guard regretted taking the cigarette that the man offered to him. This kid was acting like a fool and might get himself killed.

He said unhappily, “There is only one Boss Cao in Jiangnan, and that’s the one from the Cao Group.”

Cao Group, Cao Jinyan!

Damn it, it’s Cao Jinyan again. I haven’t gone to settle the score with you yet, but you jumped out first.

Shen Yechen clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. His black and white eyes were covered with scarlet blood.

The security guard didn't notice anything unusual about Ye Chen and continued to talk non-stop.

Just as the cigarette in his mouth was finished, a Bentley Continental stopped in front of the Times Building.

The Bentley was not parked in the parking space. The security guard was about to go over and tell the other party to park in the parking space when he saw a tall and handsome man with regular features getting out of the car.

The moment the security guard saw the man, he gave up the idea of ​​asking him to park his car in the parking space.

Not to mention parking in front of the Times Building, there is no problem even parking inside the Times Building.

Because the person who got off the bus was Cao Jinyan, the local tyrant of Jiangnan City.

The security guard immediately trotted over, opened the glass door for Cao Jinyan, and pressed the elevator button for Cao Jinyan in advance.

Shen Yechen watched the man enter the Times Building. The other person seemed to feel his gaze and turned his head slightly to look at him.

Instantly, the two looked at each other.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, but the moment their eyes met, Shen Yechen seemed to see... teasing in the other’s eyes.

When the security guard came back, Ye Chen immediately asked, "Brother, who is that person? He can enter without swiping his card."

"Boss Cao."

Ye Chen suddenly felt that something bad was about to happen: "Then he is going to..."

The security guard said as a matter of course: "Of course we should go to the 71st floor to find Boss Liu!"

Ye Chen's eyes changed instantly, and his whole body was filled with murderous intent.

No, I have to follow and see... Ye Chen felt very uneasy and was about to enter the Times Building again.

He had just taken a few steps when he was stopped by the security guard: "Brother, you need to swipe your work badge to enter. You can't enter without a badge. I swiped it for you once and let you out, which is already against the rules. Don't make it difficult for me."

If I had known this, why did I come out just now?

Shen Yechen even had the thought, "If the security guard hadn't swiped my card, I would not have come out," so he hated the security guard.

But at this time, the bearded security guard and the patrolling security team were already staring at him.

Helplessly, Ye Chen had to wait outside.
