Chapter 200 Bodyguard
S City Taiping Insurance Company.
Huang Yan sat in the reception room, looking through the information about the male bodyguards prepared for her by the company, and frowned in dissatisfaction.
The information is packaged beautifully, but when you look closely, aren't they all just soldiers who don't even have a high school education?
She had no doubt that if General Shi was really equipped with these male bodyguards who had experienced military service, General Zhou would definitely ask her to pack up and leave.
Huang Yan closed the manual. "Don't you have any female bodyguards? I heard that some security guards would harass their employers, so... I still hope to hire a female bodyguard."
The male manager shook his head arrogantly. "No. We did have a pretty female bodyguard, but her skills weren't up to par, so she was fired yesterday."
After saying that, he glanced at Huang Yan, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident - the company only has male bodyguards, it's up to you whether you want one or not.
Huang Yan took a deep breath and finally suppressed the urge to curse, "Okay!"
She got up and left. Just as she left the reception room, she heard a sudden commotion at the company entrance on the first floor.
Huang Yan stood on the second-floor landing and looked down. She saw two burly men blocking the doorway. They shouted angrily, "How dare you come to the company and ask for money? You hit your employer, and the company is lucky they didn't ask you to pay!"
The woman at the door said in a hoarse voice, "My mother needs money for medical treatment. I can't lose this job. Please, let me see the boss."
The male security guard grinned, "Your mother's illness is none of my business. If you don't leave now, I'll get violent!"
The woman's voice became even hoarse. "I don't want much, just one month's salary. 3,000 yuan is enough. Is 3,000 yuan not enough?"
Huang Yan frowned as she watched. This company boss is a scumbag. He fired his employees but refused to pay them even 3,000 yuan in salary?
Just as I was about to go downstairs, the voice of the male manager suddenly rang out from behind me, "What are you doing at the company gate? Get them out now! It's going to look bad to the customers!"
The male security guard didn't dare to delay any longer and stretched out his hand, roughly grabbing the woman's shoulder. Unexpectedly, the woman dodged, twisted his arm with her backhand, and threw her to the ground.
Before the man could scream, the woman had bent her knees and pinned him down, her fists raised high.
Huang Yan's eyes lit up.
The male security guard shouted anxiously, "Have you forgotten that you have a criminal record? If you dare to hit me, I will call the police and send you back to prison. Your mother will be beyond help!"
The woman paused in her fist swing, and Huang Yan clearly saw that her eyes gradually turned red, with anger rising in her eyes.
But in the end, she unclenched her fists, stood up, and left the company with heavy steps.
The male security guard got up from the ground, looked at her back as she walked away, and cursed, "Bah!"
Huang Yan was furious. What kind of people are in this company? They should shut it down immediately.
She turned around and glared at the male manager, then quickly went downstairs and followed the direction the woman left.
Ten minutes later, Huang Yan stood on the street, her hands on her knees, breathing heavily. She looked forward, but the woman was no longer among the few passers-by.
She gritted her teeth somewhat unwillingly. How could that woman walk so fast?
Huang Yan stood up and was about to take a taxi back to the company when a low, hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind her, "Are you looking for me?"
She turned around in surprise and saw the woman standing behind her with one hand in her pocket. Under the wind-blown hair on her forehead were a pair of dark eyes, staring at her suspiciously.
She laughed, then held out her hand and handed over her business card. "I have a job for you. Are you interested in talking?"
————
Two days later, when Nian An was sitting at her workstation concentrating on studying the company's industrial information in preparation for taking over the job of assistant to the company's president, two quick but steady footsteps came over and stopped in front of her.
"Boss Xiao, the bodyguard that Boss Zhou is looking for has arrived. Is she in the office now?"
bodyguard?
Shi Nian'an looked up in surprise. Huang Yan was standing in front of her workstation, and behind her was a short-haired woman in a cheap black suit.
She stood straight, beneath her thick black eyebrows were a pair of silent eyes that could hardly conceal their sharpness, observing her surroundings calmly.
Because the other person was very tall, Shi Nian'an could only look up at her, not daring to look at her for long. He only glanced at her and then withdrew his gaze.
Turning to look at Huang Yan, "Sister Yan, you should call me by my name. I'm just an assistant now. Calling me Xiao will always cause misunderstanding."
After a pause, he continued, "Boss Zhou is inside, just go in."
"Okay, Mr. Shi." Huang Yan did not change the address and led the people in.
Shi Nian'an held her forehead helplessly, he just didn't listen to her at all!
Then he bit the tip of the pen and thought, is it because the stepmother is worried about the loan sharks and Qiao Yanzhi's revenge that she specially hired a bodyguard to protect her?
She thought this was a good idea. Otherwise, if her stepmother was in danger and she was asked to manage the company, the company would probably go bankrupt.
In fact, she has been very scared and uneasy these days, especially when she thought of the cruel words that Qiao Yanzhi said at the end, she couldn't help shaking.
He won't give up!
And can they, who are like ants in the eyes of the powerful, really compete with the Crown Prince of Heaven?
Shi Nian'an had no confidence at all.
But deep down I had a strange feeling that if it was a stepmother, maybe it would really be possible.
However, Shi Nian'an didn't quite understand why her stepmother had changed so much, as if she had become a completely different person, making her feel so unfamiliar. Was it because the misfortune she had encountered had changed her personality, or was it that she had never known the real her?
But no matter which one is the true identity of the stepmother, Shi Nian'an can be sure that she does not like him.
Of course!
If she hadn't attended that seminar and provoked Qiao Yanzhi, the tragedy that followed wouldn't have happened, her father wouldn't have died, and her stepmother wouldn't have been in such a difficult situation.
Who would like a troublemaker like her?
Self-blame and guilt almost overwhelmed Shi Nian'an. She was really useless and didn't know how to manage a company.
If the company can really overcome the difficulties, Shi Nian'an wants to sell all her shares to her stepmother. As for herself, she will take the money and go abroad and leave here.
In this way, Qiao Yanzhi had no way to deal with her.
By the way, her mother has also settled abroad, but her mother has started a family with someone else and has a new child, so she should not be welcome to visit.
Shi Nian'an gave a bitter smile but quickly cheered up.
There is no point in worrying about these things now, so let’s just do more within our ability!
Shi Nian'an took a deep breath and looked at the documents on the table again. Just at this moment, a loud noise came from the office across the wall.
She turned her head in surprise and looked at the closed door.
What are they doing in the house?
Shi Nian'an became curious and thought her stepmother wouldn't mind her eavesdropping on their conversation with the bodyguard, so she got up, made three cups of coffee, and went to the office and knocked on the door.
"Enter."
Shi Nian'an pushed the door open and walked in. When he saw the situation inside, he was stunned.
The bodyguard was being held against the wall by his stepmother, who locked his neck with one hand. His cheap suit jacket had been taken off, and his washed-out T-shirt was stretched tight by the force, revealing faint muscle lines.
Seeing Shi Nian'an coming in with coffee, Chi Yan let go of her hand and stepped aside. "It seems that you haven't neglected exercise in these years in prison."
A hint of surprise flashed across the bodyguard's eyes, but it only took a moment for him to regain his composure. He hummed lightly, walked to the sofa, and picked up the coat that was hanging on it.
Chi Li looked at Shi Nian'an and said, "Put it on the table."
Shi Nian'an put the coffee on the table as she was told, and glanced at the bodyguard out of the corner of her eye. She saw that her face was suddenly covered with a layer of deep loss.
He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Mr. Zhou, I think with your skills, you shouldn't need a bodyguard."
Chi Yan took the coffee and sat down at her desk. "I think you misunderstood. I asked you to come here not to protect me, but to protect her."
Shi Nian'an felt the gaze falling on him and froze instantly.
She looked at Chi Yan blankly, "Why? Isn't it Mom... Isn't it President Zhou who needs security more?"
Chi Li chuckled, "Do you think I need a bodyguard?"
Shi Nian'an was speechless and unable to refute for a moment.
A man who can fight a dozen thugs with his bare hands and pin a muscular woman against the wall so that she can't move really doesn't need bodyguards.
"Nice to meet you. This is your bodyguard, Ms. Lan Yingzhang. She will be responsible for your safety from now on." Chi Li lowered her head and took a sip of coffee.
Shi Nian'an stared at her in a daze, an indescribable joy welling up in his heart.
Her stepmother was so worried about her safety that she even spent a lot of money to hire bodyguards for her. Does this mean...she didn't hate herself as much as she thought?
Just as she was thinking, a rough hand reached out to her, and a calm tone with a faint smile said, "Hello, Mr. Xiaoshi."
Shi Nian'an immediately came back to his senses and reached out to shake her hand. "Hello, Sister Lan. You should be much older than me. Is it okay for me to call you Sister?"
Lan Yingzhang continued shaking hands, "Mr. Xiao, thank you for your kindness."
He is a quiet person.
Shi Nian'an sighed and let go of his hand first. He didn't show it on his face, but he could hardly hide his shock in his heart.
When shaking hands just now, she noticed that there were obvious calluses on the knuckles of this person's index finger.
That's obviously something someone used to using guns would have, right? And, from what Mom just said, she'd been in jail?
Shi Nian'an was extremely curious about what kind of extraordinary past this Sister Lan had.
At this time, Chi Li said, "Okay, I still have things to take care of, you guys go out."
Shi Nian'an and Lan Yingzhang went out first, while Huang Yan stayed to confirm the contents of the bodyguard contract with Chi Li before leaving and closing the door.
The office suddenly became quiet.
Chi Li put down the coffee in her hand, leaned back in her chair with a relaxed look, and narrowed her eyes slightly.
The heroine's safety is taken care of, and it's time to think about the new project.
With the Lord God System, she can easily come up with something beyond current technology and shock the world.
However, even she couldn't predict the chain reaction this would cause, so she had to be more cautious.
If she overdoes it, the world will collapse. Although she is not someone who cares about the destruction of the world, after all, this is her original world, so it is better to preserve it.
Should I say I'm homesick? For the first time, Chi Lan was a little undecided.
She stroked her chin and thought, why not... ask Liu Shen Ai?
Chi Li looked at the computer in front of her. With a thought, the screen lit up and the picture switched to the pure white space she created.
At this moment, the villa was filled with thousands of transparent light balls. The starlight emerging from the light balls was like a flowing Milky Way, converging towards one place.
Chi Li looked in the direction of the starlight and found the Six Gods of Love wrapped in a huge ball of data.
As if sensing Chi Qi's gaze, a line of subtitles appeared above the data ball.
[This system is busy consuming a torrent of data to complete its ultimate evolution and refuses all external commands.]
Chi Yao:......
The guy who said before that he wanted to have fun everywhere, has become so career-oriented just because of her words?
Even if it devours more data, it can't be smart enough to develop the main god system.
Chi Li stared at the subtitles and chuckled, "Are you sure? Do you want me to take back the access to the small world that was opened to you?"
[Very good, you have successfully caught the attention of this system. I will reluctantly grant you ten minutes.]
Chi Li said coldly, "Speak human language."
The data stream dispersed, revealing Liu Shen Ai's avatar. She snorted in dissatisfaction, "Why are you looking for me?"
"Help me calculate and deduce the possible future after the Matter Recombination Machine appears in the modern world."
"This is simple, but my computing power is limited, so I can't guarantee its accuracy."
Chi Li crossed her arms and stared at the screen, "That's enough."
The moment he finished speaking, several video windows appeared on the screen, showing different images.
In the lab, a male scientist in a white lab coat, eyes red, stared intently at the live broadcast of the Sky Dome press conference. He watched as an operator placed 1kg of industrial waste into the material recombiner and then took out 1kg of gold. Then, she repeated the demonstration, this time inserting a cabbage and then taking out a durian.
The male scientist clutched the operating table tightly, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets. He shook his head frantically, "No! This is impossible! Physics... Physics has been completely overturned. It no longer exists?!"
Unable to accept the fact that all his years of research results had become a pile of waste paper, he raised his hand, picked up the gun, and aimed it at his solar plexus.
With a bang, a life was gone.
Chi Li shook her head with regret. "What if he was just performing a magic trick? Choosing suicide so easily, how can you be worthy of your mother who gave birth to you and raised you? Men are so selfish."
She shifted her gaze to another window.
Huangtian Group Headquarters.
Chairman Qiao Zhizhang stared gloomily at his subordinate who was reporting. "Are you saying that our oil will become as cheap as plastic? An energy plan that cost tens of billions and took thirty years to develop is going to be wasted just like that?"
"Now, immediately purchase all the materials needed to build the Matter Recombination Machine. I'm also offering a large reward for the heads of all members of the Matter Recombination Machine project team."
"Since energy is worthless, let's all go to hell!"
Chi Li was thoughtful. It seemed that the counterattack of the old interest group was more fierce than she had imagined. She should form a new security team loyal to the company.
Let’s look at other deductions.
…
After reading all the results, Chi Li finally had an idea in her mind.
She opened the data panel and looked at the tasks in this world again, [President of Listing] and [Qiu Liang Huang Po]
As the name suggests, the first task is to get the company listed, and the second task is to bankrupt Huangtian.
But it's too much of an insult to her to just give her such a simple task.
Let Shi Nian'an do it, he can do it.
She already had system permissions and decisively chose to increase the difficulty.
After some operations, the third task appeared.
Chi Li's eyes, which were always calm, trembled slightly after seeing those words.
The third task is -
The Leap of Civilization
