Chapter 156 What a beautiful face!

However, Zhang Pengfei still left Chen Jingyang with a "surprise" - a diary locked in the cabinet above.

Chen Jingyang once lied to Zhang Pengfei, saying that those were his personal belongings and he couldn't show them to him. Zhang Pengfei believed him without question and never thought of touching the things inside.

Chen Jingyang rummaged through some nook and cranny and found a small key, opened the cabinet door, and took out two notebooks from inside.

Zhang Pengfei wrote for almost three months, accumulating nearly 100,000 words. Chen Jingyang gently stroked the words on it, then pressed it firmly to his chest, as if he had found something to comfort him for the rest of his life.

The sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and life does not stop because of the sadness of a few people. Whether they like it or not, a new life begins.

Chen Jingyang closed the door, stood quietly at the door for a moment, and then turned and walked towards the elevator.

However, instead of returning to Tanzhi, he went to a security company called Fengren International.

Although Chen Qishan said he wouldn't touch Zhang Pengfei as long as he behaved, Chen Jingyang didn't completely believe him.

Furthermore, even if Chen Qishan doesn't touch Zhang Pengfei, what about Chen Qinian? What about Li Jianren?

What about the other people who had asked him for favors or harbored resentment towards him?

He absolutely cannot allow anyone with ill intentions to get close to Zhang Pengfei again!

He was received by a manager surnamed Liu.

Chen Jingyang cut to the chase: "A friend of mine needs protection, but he can't know about it. It has to be done secretly, is that alright?"

Although the requirements were a bit high, Manager Liu had encountered them before.

Sharp Edge International is one of the top security service companies in Beijing and even nationwide, having provided services to numerous celebrities and political figures.

Some clients have low psychological resilience. They are fine when they are unaware that they are in danger, but once they find out, even if someone is there to protect them, they may become so nervous that they cannot eat or sleep. Therefore, for such clients, discreet protection is very necessary.

However, this also increases the difficulty of protection several times over.

After all, this means you might not be able to be with your customer in real time, and you might not be able to stop some remote or sudden injuries in time.

"Mr. Chen, please provide detailed information about your friend's identity, occupation, employer, age, residential address, and why he/she needs protection, so that we can make an assessment and provide a quote."

"He's a lawyer, mainly specializing in criminal defense. He's 24 years old and works at Zhongyu Law Firm. He currently lives in Unit 1, Building 12 of Youai Residential Complex, but..."

Chen Jingyang paused for a moment, then continued, "I don't know exactly which floor or which room it is."

Zhang Pengfei was still using his old phone. Since he woke up from surgery, Chen Jingyang had not mentioned the monitoring software, so Zhang Pengfei was unaware that his phone had been monitored by Chen Jingyang.

However, the monitoring software can only perform planar positioning, so he didn't know which floor Zhang Pengfei lived on.

Chen Jingyang continued, "As for the reason, I feel that someone might be trying to force me to agree to certain conditions by persecuting him, but I don't want him to suffer any harm because of me."

Manager Liu nodded slightly: "Then Mr. Chen, could you please explain again who might be causing him trouble, and what kind of power these people can mobilize?"

Chen Jingyang frowned slightly, thought for more than ten seconds, and then said, "Those people... if they want to touch him, they probably won't do it themselves, so the personnel involved are quite complicated, and it's hard to say."

“I understand.” Manager Liu said knowingly. “If that’s the case, then at present, he is only a potential danger. I suggest adopting a 24-hour protection strategy, since we don’t know when or where they will make their move.”

Chen Jingyang nodded, signaling Manager Liu to continue.

“However, you just asked that the person in question not to know, which is quite difficult. In order to get close to him, our staff may need to pretend to be his colleagues or neighbors.”

Manager Liu opened his notebook and wrote: "Since your friend is a lawyer, it would be best if our staff had a legal background..."

Chen Jingyang interjected, "I know the boss of Zhongyu Law Firm. If you need my help to get your people in, I think it shouldn't be difficult."

Manager Liu smiled and said, "It's best not to. Since you don't want to implicate him, then don't interfere in anything to avoid creating unnecessary trouble. Don't worry, Attorney Zhu is very famous and has dealt with us before, so he shouldn't disrespect us."

Chen Jingyang's eyes slanted upwards almost imperceptibly at the corners.

That's true. In this world, there are always people more capable than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding. It's not like Chen Jingyang is the only one with connections and resources.

The owner of Sharp Edge International is very mysterious in his eyes. It is said that he has a complicated background. He was a special forces soldier, then joined the National Guard Bureau, accompanied dignitaries and state guests, and rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel before retiring and going into business.

Showing off your connections in front of others is like trying to wield a large axe in front of Lu Ban (a legendary carpenter).

Manager Liu pointed to the key points recorded in his notebook and said to Chen Jingyang, "We need time to investigate your friend's living environment. I will contact you again in three days at the latest."

Two days later, Chen Jingyang returned to Fengren International. Manager Liu gave him a protection plan: "Mr. Chen, please take a look. If there are any problems, we can discuss them further."

The first page contained Zhang Pengfei's personal information. Chen Jingyang frowned slightly after reading two lines—it was too detailed.

Not only were their height, weight, facial features, home address, and workplace mentioned, but even information about Dou Qiaoyun, Huahua, and himself was also provided.

Moreover, he believed that Blade International possessed far more information about him than what was written on this piece of paper.

Chen Jingyang couldn't help but look up at Manager Liu. Manager Liu smiled and nodded subtly, seemingly acknowledging and responding to his guess.

"Mr. Chen, rest assured, we will keep all information absolutely confidential. The reason why we have come this far is entirely due to the trust of our customers. Leaking it would be digging our own grave!"

Chen Jingyang nodded and continued reading.

Zhang Pengfei shared a two-bedroom apartment with someone else, Xiao Yan, who was an intern at their law firm.

Chen Jingyang immediately recalled that he seemed to have heard Zhang Pengfei mention such a person before, a short and chubby foodie who could go out without money or a phone, but had to bring snacks.

After reviewing the plan, Chen Jingyang seemed dissatisfied: "Is assigning only one person enough?"

Manager Liu smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can't speak for others, but this person is definitely capable!"

Chen Jingyang couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why?"

"Because he's the only one who can match our boss."

Manager Liu then took out another piece of paper and handed it to Chen Jingyang: "This is his information, please take a look."

Chen Jingyang frowned as soon as he saw it.

What a beautiful face!
