The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 405 - 405 405 Deng's Fish Xu Family

405: Chapter 405: Deng’s Fish, Xu Family 405: Chapter 405: Deng’s Fish, Xu Family “Sigh, what a tragic entanglement, to speak of it is to shed tears.” Speaking of this, Ye Shikai was truly frustrated.

He had only intended to perform a “pure” act of heroism at the food stall, but from that moment on, he ended up being pestered by Xu Han.

Retelling the entire encounter between the two, Su Qingyu also showed a look of astonishment, not expecting the hero saving the beauty scenario to play out once again.

“I also know a bit about the Xu Family,” Su Qingyu’s tone suddenly turned serious.

She was just fine before, but as soon as the Xu Family was mentioned, her expression became grave.

At this point, Ye Shikai suddenly remembered that Luo Shiqi seemed to have a cautious attitude toward this Xu Family as well, but what was the reason behind this?

“The Xu Group in Hong Kong’s business world has another nickname,” Su Qingyu said mysteriously.

“What nickname?”

“Deng’s fish.” Su Qingyu’s expression was very serious, as serious as she was when negotiating, showing no relaxation.

“What does that mean?” Ye Shikai asked curiously.

“Deng’s fish is a terrifying creature from ancient times, large in size with immense destructive and biting power.

When it feeds, it’s like a whirlpool, sucking in all living beings, refusing no one,” Su Qingyu’s expression was somewhat unnatural, as though she held a deep wariness of the Xu Family.

“So, what you’re saying is, the Xu Group is like Deng’s fish, where the big fish eat the little fish,” Ye Shikai said.

“Exactly.

The Xu Group hasn’t been in Hong Kong for long, and the family has few members.

But since its emergence, like Deng’s fish, it’s been continuously devouring prey smaller than itself, relentlessly expanding and growing.

In just a few decades, the Xu Family has already claimed to be one of the top three enterprises in Hong Kong,” Su Qingyu continued, and from her description, Ye Shikai also got a rough understanding of the Xu Group.

“Qingyu, I don’t really understand business matters, but how is the Xu Family so blatantly engaging in mergers and acquisitions,” Ye Shikai asked, lying down, full of curiosity.

“This is the key point, especially in the last few years, the Xu Group’s expansion has been accelerating, and they are on the verge of becoming the ultimate enterprise in Hong Kong,” Su Qingyu continued.

“Any company’s operations can’t do without a normal functioning capital flow.

Once the capital chain breaks, it’s like a building without a foundation; even massive enterprises will quickly collapse.”

“If the Xu Family is merging with so many companies, wouldn’t they need a significant amount of capital flow?” Ye Shikai asked curiously.

After attending Professor Blair’s training course in Yanjing, he had some understanding of corporate mergers; although he wasn’t very proficient, he understood the principle that you have to eat one bite at a time, and company mergers require even more caution.

“That’s true, but the Xu Family’s pace of mergers is so fast it defies logic, as if they weren’t spending money at all,” Su Qingyu expressed her surprise, and Ye Shikai was even more shocked.

Could it be that the Xu Group had the function of a money-printing machine?

Of course, that was impossible.

“Could the Xu Family be secretly involved in some illicit industries?” Ye Shikai tentatively asked.

“However, Hong Kong’s prosecutorial organs simply can’t find any trace of them.

Their background is very clean and normal, without a shred of criminal evidence,” Su Qingyu said, seemingly a bit disheartened and puzzled as she spoke.

“Ha, there are many ways to hide crimes.

Maybe they just haven’t found out yet,” Ye Shikai comfortably nestled into the quilt, moving closer to Su Qingyu’s side as if taking advantage of the situation.

“Hello, move over a little.” Su Qingyu felt someone nudge her calf, gently retracted it, and then gave Ye Shikai a strong push.

“Wife, we’re already married; why can’t we do that kind of thing yet?” Ye Shikai spoke with a hint of gloom.

“I…I’m not ready yet, can you…give me a little more time, okay?” Su Qingyu curled up, trembling slightly, and pulled the blanket over her head, her voice sounding very shy.

Indeed, she was conservative in this aspect.

Perhaps due to some psychological cleanliness, Su Qingyu wanted to save her first time for her wedding night.

“I won’t force you.” Ye Shikai sighed softly, shifting his body to the side slightly, deliberately keeping a distance from Su Qingyu.

Unfortunately, it was so tantalizing to have a beautiful woman lying beside him who he couldn’t touch, but Ye Shikai would never force himself on her as it could cause a psychological shadow for Su Qingyu.

“I’m…sorry.” Not long after the lights were turned off, Ye Shikai suddenly felt something poking his waist, and heard Su Qingyu’s whispering voice.

“Qingyu, if I were the kind of man who jumps at any woman he sees, would you still have taken a fancy to me?

I respect you, not just because of a man’s reason, but because I am your husband.” Ye Shikai said with a smile.

Women in Huaxia are conservative, unlike the openness of women abroad.

Su Qingyu was still very traditional at heart.

It wasn’t affected, but rather, it was those careless women who are easier to be gossiped about.

“Husband, when are we going to have a wedding ceremony?” Su Qingyu regained her composure, wrapped her arms around Ye Shikai’s waist, and spoke softly.

“Sure, when we return to Yanjing, we will find a free time and invite all our friends and relatives.” Ye Shikai nodded in the darkness and then said deliberately, “Qingyu, I swear I will give you the most romantic wedding in the whole world.”

“Okay, then I’ll wait for you, coming to marry me on a rainbow cloud.” Su Qingyu said laughingly, recalling that classic movie scene, both of them trying hard not to chuckle.

…………

The next morning.

Everyone was sitting at the breakfast table, and as the boss, Ye Shikai and Su Qingyu naturally sat in the center, with the members of the Netherworld Palace sitting on both sides in order.

“Boss, we’ve been in Hong Kong for so long, when are we going back?” Suddenly, Soul Destroyer spoke out of the blue.

“Qingyu, can you go to the kitchen and get me the salad dressing?” Ye Shikai turned his head and said indifferently.

“Okay, wait a minute.” Hearing this, Su Qingyu stood up and walked into the kitchen.

“Soul Destroyer, has something happened at the Netherworld Palace?” Ye Shikai knew Soul Destroyer wouldn’t speak without reason, there must be some unspeakable concerns not fit to mention, hence he deliberately sent Su Qingyu away.

“Recently, Ghost has sent news.

Those new Main Gods are getting restless, and there seems to be a trend for them to form alliances.

So, last night Ghost specifically sent a text message urging us to return as soon as possible.” Soul Destroyer expressed his concerns, plunging Ye Shikai into deep thought.

At the moment, the leaders of the Netherworld Palace were scattered across three locations: Europe, Yanjing, and Hong Kong, their strength indeed too dispersed.

Especially at the base of the Netherworld Palace, only leaders Ghost and Black Rhinoceros remained, and if Worm was counted, that was barely three people.

Even though there were many other Netherworld Palace guards, Ye Shikai was very clear that these people were no match for the Main Gods.
