The Beautiful CEO’s Dragon Blood Bodyguard
Chapter 144 - 0144 I am Your Brother

Chapter 144: Chapter 0144 I am Your Brother

The events of the morning set the company’s employees abuzz with gossip.

Behind closed doors, they were whispering that Long Fei must surely be Lin Yingying’s boyfriend, for who else would have had the guts to beat up a director like that?

The last time Long Fei, in the presence of everyone, pulled Lin Yingying’s hand, and then she openly dined with him in front of everyone.

These two incidents were enough to prove their point.

Just as everyone was still stunned by their discovery, an announcement from the CEO’s office immediately doused their gossip.

It read, "Human Resources Director Zheng Tuo, due to corruption and bribery, and for privately embezzling corporate funds, is now suspended from all duties, to be temporarily replaced by Deputy Manager Geng Zhong. Head of Security Long Fei, for engaging in a fight, is first to be dismissed. A new Head of Security will be appointed by the Human Resources Department. All other employees, stick to your own roles, seriously fulfill your duties, and refrain from gossiping."

After reading the announcement, some were disappointed, while others were thrilled.

The female staff, devoid of juicy gossip, were naturally very disappointed.

The male staff were all utterly relieved, fearing that someone else might steal their goddess away.

If that happened, it would be too heartbreaking for them.

Zhang Li received the news and rushed into Chu Feng’s office in surprise.

Chu Feng was staring out the window, cupping a coffee in his hands.

Zhang Li asked from behind, "Your brother has just been fired, yet you’re so relaxed?"

Chu Feng smiled and said, "Not fired, but promoted."

"Promoted?"

Zhang Li was somewhat puzzled.

Chu Feng said, "Go back and ask Wang Xiaoya, you’ll find out. My brother is no ordinary person, truly a sight to behold."

Zhang Li took a deep breath and asked him, "Did you orchestrate Manager Zheng’s downfall?"

Chu Feng turned to stare at her and said, "Is that important?"

Zhang Li felt a chill as she looked into his eyes and anxiously asked, "I just want to know if this has anything to do with me? Did you already exploit what happened that night between me and Zheng Tuo?"

Chu Feng chuckled lightly, "Do you think you still have any other value to be exploited?"

Zhang Li’s face flushed with anger, suddenly realizing the implication and cursed softly, "You’re shameless."

Chu Feng wagged his finger and said, "This is not shamelessness, this is an exchange. How can you expect to sit in your current position without paying a price?"

Zhang Li was overwhelmed with shame, recalling the night with Zheng Tuo, exposed by Chu Feng.

She felt like she had lost all face, regretting how she had cluelessly become entangled in their struggle.

Her eyes red with emotion, she left, harboring a deep hatred for Chu Feng.

Chu Feng rubbed his temple, his face calm.

He was focused on greater matters, careless about these trivialities.

Soon, his office door was knocked.

Long Fei walked in from outside, asking him, "Have you been bullying Zhang Li again?"

"Why, you’ve come to champion her cause?"

Chu Feng, smiling, gestured for him to sit down and began brewing him a cup of tea.

Long Fei took a sip and said, "I don’t care about your squabbles with her. I’m here to ask about the role of Head of Security, who are you planning to give it to?"

Chu Feng replied, "Of course, it’s Xu Dong. Isn’t he your little brother?"

"And what about Dong Laonian?"

Long Fei’s eyes bore into him.

According to Wu Kui, after last night’s shift change, Dong Laonian hid in the surveillance room and didn’t come out.

Everyone had left after work, but Zhang Yue and Zhou Xiaoqi made a return to the company.

Dong Laonian was in front of them, going up to the second floor. It wasn’t until after they left that he came down from the second floor.

Long Fei glanced at the surveillance footage, which clearly had been tampered with.

He had started to suspect that Dong Laonian was bought off.

Aside from Chu Feng, he couldn’t think of anyone else.

Chu Feng flashed an unnatural expression and, while taking a drag of his cigarette, said, "There are some things you don’t understand, and I can’t explain them to you. All you need to know is that I’m your brother."

Long Fei shrugged his shoulders and stood up, saying, "Fine, your word is enough for me."

Chu Feng smiled as he saw him off. Once Long Fei left, his face revealed a complex expression.

Having descended the building, Long Fei returned to the security room, took off his uniform, and handled the handover procedures with the finance and HR departments.

He familiarized Xu Dong with the duties of the security team leader and explained the daily tasks to him.

Unable to hold back, Xu Dong blurted out, "Boss, if you’re not doing it, I’m not either. What kind of crappy company is this, unable to distinguish the loyal from the treacherous? I’m not serving them anymore."

The other security guards followed up, "Boss, just say the word, and all of us brothers will quit."

Gangquan and Yang Huo didn’t make a sound. It didn’t matter to them whether Long Fei stayed or left.

After all, whoever came, their fate was to be bullied.

Long Fei patted Xu Dong on the shoulder and said to everyone, "Thank you all, I’ll remember this. Besides, who said I’m leaving? I’m still working here, and I’m going to the highest level!"

Xu Dong stared at him, smacking his lips and saying, "Boss, you’re not really becoming the president, are you?"

In the past, Long Fei seemed to have said that his goal was to reach the top of the company.

The other security guards also widened their eyes, their faces filled with disbelief.

Long Fei coughed and said with a light laugh, "What nonsense are you thinking about, it’s not easy to be a president. Your big brother here is now the president’s bodyguard, which is still miles away from actually being the president!"

"Bodyguard?"

Looking at each other, they were first stunned, then rubbed their heads and excitedly shouted, "Boss, we just knew you’d be fine. With you not leaving, us brothers can rest easy."

"Boss, you’re really our idol! What’s the president’s office like? Can we come up and have a look?"

"Boss, is Director Lin really that tough? Do you feel nervous being with her?"

A crowd pulled Long Fei to sit down, passing cigarettes and pouring tea, gossiping like women.

Gangquan and Yang Huo stood at the back, wanting to slap themselves in the face.

They had thought Long Fei was done for, but who knew the guy actually got promoted.

Damnit, if they had known earlier, they would have shown some initiative, made a declaration of loyalty, maybe even taken advantage of the situation later on.

Now it was too late, and they couldn’t even get a word in edge-wise.

By the afternoon, Long Fei had finished briefing on what needed to be explained and dealt with what needed to be handled. He found a box, packed his things, and had to start his work as a bodyguard the next day.

After work, Wang Xiaoya came down early and called him to leave together.

Today, she really had her nerves frayed by Long Fei.

Long Fei wheeled his bicycle over, letting her sit behind.

Wang Xiaoya pouted and said, "I want to drink, let’s find a place to have a drink!"

Long Fei thought for a moment and said, "Why don’t we go to a bar? I just got a payout of three thousand yuan today, perfect for a little splurge!"

Wang Xiaoya objected, "Can’t you be a bit more frugal? Is the alcohol at the bars any different from anywhere else?"

"Probably the same!"

Long Fei analyzed.

Wang Xiaoya knocked on his head and said, "Then why go to a bar? It’s overpriced and far from home. After drinking, we wouldn’t even be able to get back."

"You’re brilliant, boss!"

Long Fei laughed and suggested, "Then let’s just go to my place to drink!"

"Alright, later I want to eat lots and lots of skewers."

Wang Xiaoya nodded happily, this was more to her liking.
