Just as Guan Yingjie's two bodyguards were about to make a move, a large group of people dressed in Linglong Club security uniforms rushed in from outside the door.
The person leading the group was none other than A Bao.
When the two bodyguards saw so many people coming, they quickly protected their master.
Two fists can't beat four hands. No matter how strong they are, they can't defeat these dozens of people together, especially since there is one of them, A Bao, whom they know and are already old acquaintances.
Guan Yingjie pushed aside the bodyguards protecting him and stepped forward, glaring fiercely at A Bao.
"Ah Bao, are you going to go against me?"
Abao glanced at Chen Zhe, and after receiving a reassuring look from Chen Zhe, he said, "I was maintaining order at the Linglong Club."
"Huh? Heh heh!! Maintaining order? Ah Bao, have you forgotten whose dog you are? Wasn't Hu Ling dead? Where is this Linglong Club anymore?"
Abao shook his head.
"Young Master, the Linglong Club is Miss's last wish, and I must protect it."
In front of others, A Bao usually calls Hu Ling "Sister Hu". But in front of Guan Yingjie, he uses the same way he used to address her.
"What a joke! Linglong Club was founded by Hu Ling. Now that she's gone, there's no need for this club to exist. I'm making this clear today: I'm going to close this Linglong Club, and no one can stop me."
Chen Zhe stepped forward at this moment.
“Linglong Club cannot be closed. Apart from Sister Hu, no one has the authority to shut down Linglong Club.”
After Chen Zhe stepped forward, Yang Yun, other technicians, and other staff members of Linglong Club also stepped forward. They didn't know Guan Yingjie's identity, only that he was probably from an official family, but so what?
Closing down Linglong Club is like smashing their rice bowl. If you're going to smash your own rice bowl, even the King of Heaven himself wouldn't allow it.
These dozens of security guards, along with hundreds of staff members from Linglong Club, created a formidable force.
The two bodyguards standing next to Guan Yingjie sensed something was wrong and shielded Guan Yingjie behind them.
"Young Master, let's retreat first."
Guan Yingjie was no fool. He knew that his words had angered the public. To anger the public in broad daylight would require even the emperor to back down.
He stared at Chen Zhe and snorted coldly.
"The green hills remain unchanged, the clear waters flow on forever. Chen Zhe, I'll remember you! Let's go!"
He turned and left, taking two bodyguards with him.
After Guan Yingjie left, Chen Zhe and Yang Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alright, everyone, let's get back to work."
As soon as Chen Zhe finished speaking, he found that a lot of people had surrounded him.
The technicians, led by Mo Xiaohong, enveloped him like flower petals.
They were very emotional, their eyes filled with admiration.
"Mr. Chen, you're amazing! I want to have your babies!!"
"I want to have a baby too!!!"
"Me too! Me too!!"
Wang Qianqian pushed the group aside, clung tightly to Chen Zhe's arm, and said with a hint of jealousy, "Have you no shame?"
The others ignored her completely, forcefully pulling her aside while continuing to shout.
"Hey everyone! Calm down, stop tearing my clothes!!"
"Manager Yang, please tell me about them."
Yang Yun had already been pushed to the side. She snorted and straightened her clothes.
"I don't care about you!"
The staff and security guards, not wanting to miss out on the drama, chimed in, shouting, "Let them give birth! Let them give birth!!"
...
The little farce lasted for a while.
When the women dispersed, Chen Zhe's face and shirt were covered in lipstick stains, and his clothes were disheveled, making him look both embarrassed and funny.
There's a reason why those girls were so enthusiastic. The scene today was really frightening. They all thought Linglong Club was going to be shut down, since this kind of thing had happened before.
They were all uneasy, but President Chen Zhe resolved everything. Not only did he not give in, but he also carried the troublemaker out. From the arrogant words of that second-generation official, they could tell that President Chen was being resented.
Some technicians felt quite guilty, thinking that their poor service had caused the customer to lose his temper.
That's why they were so excited just now.
...
That evening, Chen Zhe dragged his tired body home.
As soon as he opened the door, he saw Hu Ling sitting in the living room, seemingly waiting for him.
"I heard about what happened today. You've got guts, daring to go up against Guan Yingjie."
Chen Zhe gave a wry smile.
"I had no choice. He was so aggressive. If I gave in to his demands, then if this store closed down, the next one would soon follow suit."
Hu Ling nodded; "That's right, you can't back down when dealing with this kind of person. When you sent A Bao over today, I thought we were going to fight, but I heard from A Bao that there was no physical conflict."
"I overestimated him. He wouldn't dare to offend the public. The worst outcome I can imagine is that the two sides will fight. In that case, we can gain the upper hand in public opinion."
"That's what I think too, but he doesn't seem as impulsive as before, or maybe this isn't the capital, and he's not absolutely sure."
“Although those officials outwardly obeyed him, we actually had leverage over them, so they dared not close the Linglong Club.”
Chen Zhe said.
Hu Ling nodded.
"So, Guan Yingjie still doesn't understand. He thinks he has absolute power, but he forgets that even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake. Since he's come to the East China Sea, he naturally has to abide by the rules of the East China Sea."
"Sister Hu, judging from his performance today, he probably won't give up so quickly. Next time, when he's ready, it might not be so easy."
"Yes, we'll deal with whatever comes our way. You should tell the people at Linglong Club to behave properly so he can't find any fault with them."
"I've already given the instructions. I'll go to each branch again tomorrow and repeat it."
"Okay, it's getting late, you should get some rest."
After saying that, Hu Ling turned around and went back to her room.
Chen Zhe also returned to his room, picked up his phone, and prepared to say a few words to Xie Yuhan.
But after I sent the message, there was no reply for a long time.
He immediately became alert; Xie Yuhan wouldn't have gone so long before.
Is there danger?
Chen Zhe sat up in bed and, after thinking for a few seconds, decided to go check. He quietly opened the door, preparing to slip out, but was stopped by A Bao as soon as he got downstairs.
"Manager Chen, where are you going so late?"
"I... went downstairs to buy a beer. Something happened today, and I suddenly felt like having a drink."
"I have some at home, I'll go get it for you now."
"Hey! Brother Bao, no need, I can go down and buy it myself, it'll be quick."
Abao ignored him and quickly took out two bottles of beer from the room and placed them in Chen Zhe's hands.
"Manager Chen, is that enough?"
"this……"
"If it's not enough, I'll go get more!"
Abao turned around and was about to go back inside to get it when Chen Zhe immediately stopped him.
"Brother Bao, I really have something urgent to attend to. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
"No, for Sister Hu's safety, you can't go anywhere."
"Brother Bao, it's okay, no one is following me."
"That's hard to say. You just offended Guan Yingjie today. I know him; he's narrow-minded and vindictive. You'd better not go out."
"Brother Bao..."
"Just listen to me, go back."
Chen Zhe sighed, knowing that A Bao wouldn't let him leave, and somewhat dejectedly took two bottles of beer and went upstairs.
Only after seeing Chen Zhe disappear into the hallway did A Bao return to his room with peace of mind.
Chen Zhe stood at his door, hesitated for a moment, still feeling uneasy because Xie Yuhan hadn't sent him a message yet.
He then went downstairs to Abao's door.
I knocked on the door.
Abao opened the door and saw that Chen Zhe had returned.
"Manager Chen, is there something you need?"
Chen Zhe held up two bottles of liquor. "Brother Bao, I get bored drinking alone. Would you mind if we drank together?"
Abao shook his head.
"I can't drink it, you drink it."
"Brother Bao, you don't look like someone who can't drink."
"Sister Hu is upstairs. I need to stay alert at all times to ensure her safety. Please understand."
"Oh...I understand, I understand. By the way, Sister Hu asked me to go downstairs to buy her something, but I forgot to mention it."
Abao was a little confused.
"What did Sister Hu ask you to buy?"
"It's not convenient to talk about that."
"What's inconvenient? If Sister Hu needs anything, I'll go down and buy it for her."
"Are you really going down?"
Chen Zhe asked.
"Of course, I can go down."
"Okay, she wants to buy sanitary napkins, the Feifei brand, the night-use kind. Remember not to buy the day-use kind."
Ah Bao blushed upon hearing this.
He coughed once.
"Was this really what Sister Hu instructed?"
"Would I lie to you? You should go quickly, Sister Hu said she needs it urgently."
Ah Bao hesitated.
"Brother Bao, what's wrong? Aren't you going? Don't you trust me? You can call Sister Hu now and ask her if it's true?"
"I……"
Calling Hu Ling to ask if she needs to buy sanitary napkins? Only a madman would do that.
"Manager Chen, why don't you do it for me? I'm not very familiar with this kind of thing."
"Huh? But didn't you just say I couldn't go down?"
"Well... I'll go down with you. I'll wait at the entrance, and you can go in and buy it."
"That won't do!!"
Chen Zhe immediately refused.
"Manager Chen, this is just a small matter. You won't refuse to help, will you?"
“It’s not that I don’t want to help, but if you come down with me, who will protect Sister Hu? What if an assassin comes up while we’re shopping? Can you bear the consequences?”
"That's...that makes sense, so what should we do?"
"How about this, since no one can go down, I'll just have a delivery person deliver it."
Upon hearing Chen Zhe's words, A Bao immediately shook his head.
"No, even errand runners can't come up here. What if Sister Hu accidentally opens the door?"
"This won't work, that won't work, do you want to drive Sister Hu crazy? You might as well just go down."
Ah Bao shook his head with difficulty; it would be better to ask him to buy a gun than to buy this.
"Manager Chen, how about this, you be a good person and go down to buy it, I'll stay here and watch over it."
"You trust me?"
"There's nothing to worry about, we know each other so well."
Chen Zhe reluctantly agreed, "Alright then, I'll have to handle this. Don't worry, I'll be back soon."
Ah Bao nodded gratefully.
"Thank you!"
Chen Zhe turned around, a deliberately amused smile playing on his lips.
"You're welcome!"
