The Beautiful CEO’s Dragon Blood Bodyguard
Chapter 142 Jumped into the Pit

Chapter 142: Chapter 142 Jumped into the Pit

In the CEO’s office, Lin Yingying made a phone call to have Long Fei summoned.

Long Fei hadn’t finished his Furong Wang cigarette, and with a pang of regret, he snuffed it out and put the remaining half in his cigarette case.

He knew Lin Yingying was calling for him because the incident that day was orchestrated by her.

Early in the morning, the female CEO sent him a WeChat message. It instructed him to keep an eye on Zheng Tuo and to stop him immediately if he showed any intent to leave.

Long Fei was no fool, he immediately knew that Lin Yingying was planning to make a move against Zheng Tuo.

Isn’t this how it plays out in those palace dramas?

Whenever the Emperor wants his minions to watch a minister, that minister is about to face trouble.

Seeing how nervous Wang Ke was this morning, Long Fei was sure of his suspicion.

He had intended to have a serious talk with Wang Ke, but who knew that Wang Shuo was as arrogant as a blockhead.

Long Fei seized the opportunity to vent his frustration by beating up Wang Ke first, satisfaction first, consequences later.

Since Zheng Tuo was about to be ruined anyway, beating him would be beating him for nothing.

What came as a surprise was that Zheng Tuo, half-dead and barely able to save himself, still came down at this time to stand up for Wang Shuo.

How could Long Fei let this opportunity pass, without a second thought, he beat up Zheng Tuo as well.

After all, with the trouble escalated, Lin Yingying would back him up.

This was what was called, acting on imperial orders.

At the entrance to the office, Long Fei stood upright, waving and greeting the white-collars outside.

Speaking of which, being a CEO, all the clerical staff in her office were as beautiful as flowers.

After the secretary went in to report, she came out after a while to invite Long Fei in.

This was Long Fei’s first time here, looking around curiously at everything, finding it all fascinating.

The interior was lavishly decorated, with large, wide windows that were spacious and bright, and the white wool carpet on the floor gave a fresh and pure vibe, just like a presidential suite in a five-star hotel.

Seeing his unambitious demeanor, Lin Yingying frowned and called out to him, "Have you had enough of looking around?"

Long Fei chuckled, "No, is that sofa made of leather?"

Lin Yingying felt like spitting blood, annoyed, she said, "Whether it’s leather or not, what’s it to you? I only asked you to help stop Zheng Tuo today, why did you go and beat him up for no reason?"

Long Fei feigned ignorance, "It was all an accident, I didn’t mean to hit him. The situation was chaotic at that time, and I was afraid he would take the chance to run away. So I thought I should knock him down first, to avoid messing up the task you gave me."

"Get out!"

Lin Yingying gave him a look and crossed her arms, "Do you think I’m a fool? He came downstairs just to deal with your issue, where is he going to run off to?"

Long Fei slapped his thigh, "Right, that’s exactly what happened! He planned to deal with me first and then take the chance to run away. Lucky for me, I reacted in time, otherwise, he would have succeeded with his scheme!"

Lin Yingying sized him up and down, suddenly realizing that this guy was a rascal, and she was nearly deceived by his seemingly honest appearance.

The scandal of a security guard beating up the HR director, with the female CEO taking the side of the security guard, had already spread throughout the company.

If she didn’t deal with Long Fei, she was sure to take the blame.

Anyway, that was exactly her plan.

Seeing her eyes whirling, Long Fei asked nervously, "You’re not considering firing me, are you?"

"Aren’t you stupid!"

Lin Yingying revealed a sly smile.

Long Fei protested, "You’re ditching me after I’ve served my purpose, crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. If you dare fire me, I’ll make your WeChat public and say it was you who told me to do all this."

Lin Yingying laughed, "Then open your WeChat and see when I ever spoke to you?"

"Don’t provoke me!"

Long Fei pulled out his phone and opened WeChat.

All he saw was that the messages from the other party had been retracted.

"Damn it!"

Long Fei stared at his phone, thinking he had fallen into a trap.

He wasn’t familiar with WeChat, wondering if a message sent could still be retracted.

Lin Yingying stood up and walked out, sat down on the sofa opposite, brewed a cup of tea, and called Long Fei over, "Come over here, sit and feel what a leather sofa is like!"

"Speak your mind, I’m more comfortable standing!"

Long Fei watched her defensively, afraid that she was setting another trap for him.

Playing mind games, women indeed had the upper hand.

Lin Yingying sipped her tea, speaking indifferently, "Actually, it’s nothing much, but you can’t carry on being the head of security. Causing such a ruckus, if I don’t deal with you, how will the others at the company see me?"

Long Fei inhaled sharply, the first thought in his mind was how to explain this to Wang Xiaoya.

If she knew he was about to be fired, she would definitely kill him.

"Director Lin, one has to have a conscience. I’ve worked for you, and this is how you repay me?"

Feeling resentful, he sat down on the sofa, intentionally lifting and pressing down his rear a couple of times, truly wishing to break the sofa to vent his anger.

Lin Yingying poured him a cup of tea, chuckling, "Don’t be mad, how much do you make in a month as a security guard? I have a better job for you."

Long Fei’s eyes widened in excitement, "What, you’re planning to make me the HR Director? This is so sudden, at least give me some heads-up so I could prepare!"

Lin Yingying almost spat out her tea, looking at him speechlessly, "Can you be any thicker-skinned? Who said I’m offering you that position? Except for fighting, in what ways do you meet the requirements for an HR Director?"

"Then what do you want me to do?"

Long Fei’s mood sank after a brief surge of confidence.

The HR Director, isn’t that a notorious do-nothing job within the company, where one could get by just from wining and dining—any fool could handle that.

Lin Yingying took out a contract from under the coffee table and handed it to him, "I’ve made plans for you, you’ll be my bodyguard. I’ll give you a hundred thousand a month, which is a hundred times better than being the head of security."

"Bodyguard?"

Long Fei frowned and flipped through the contract.

He suddenly remembered that Lin Shanshan had mentioned this to him before, asking him to be her sister’s bodyguard.

But at that time, he didn’t know that her sister was Lin Yingying.

He looked at Lin Yingying with suspicion, "This wasn’t Lin Shanshan’s doing, was it?"

Lin Yingying said, "She had a part in it, she recommended you to me. I had someone investigate you; you come from a rural background, clean history, pretty reliable. Initially, I thought you were an honest guy, but today’s events made me see you in a new light. However, it doesn’t affect my decision to have you as my bodyguard. Think about it carefully and give me an answer before the end of work."

Long Fei looked at the contract, feeling increasingly that this whole thing was a setup by Lin Yingying.

She had deliberately dug a hole, and he had jumped right in.

So, regardless of whether he fought Zheng Tuo today or not.

As long as he had any conflict with Zheng Tuo, Lin Yingying would still unhesitatingly fire him.

This woman, she was really full of schemes.

He cursed inwardly and said outright, "No need to consider it, I’m not going to agree to your terms. Serving a woman, I can’t do that kind of job."

Lin Yingying frowned, thinking to herself that this guy was indeed just like her sister had described.

Being her bodyguard was something many dreamt of, and yet this guy didn’t value it at all.

She picked up her teacup and took a sip, speaking lightly, "I heard that many of your ’little brothers’ are employed in the security department?"

Long Fei stared at her, saying anxiously, "They have nothing to do with this, don’t make things difficult for them!"

Lin Yingying shrugged her shoulders and looked at him with sharp eyes, "That will depend on your performance. I hope you will think of the big picture and not act on impulse! It’s so hard to find a job nowadays, you wouldn’t want to see them unemployed, right? By the way, there’s also your little lover, Wang Xiaoya. She’s been doing quite well recently, and the higher-ups are planning to promote her. Don’t drag her down!"

"You dare to threaten me?"

Long Fei gritted his teeth, with her hitting him right where it hurt.

Lin Yingying didn’t hide her intentions, "Yes, I’m threatening you. If you think you can handle it, then just walk out from here!"

"I..."

Long Fei clenched his fists, helpless under her bullying.

She was a woman, after all; Long Fei simply couldn’t bring himself to hit her.
