The King of Urban Mercenaries
Chapter 233 - 233 233 Surrounded by Three Beauties A Narrow Escape from Death Part 1

233: Chapter 233: Surrounded by Three Beauties, A Narrow Escape from Death (Part 1) 233: Chapter 233: Surrounded by Three Beauties, A Narrow Escape from Death (Part 1) Moongaze Building—more than a dozen company cars reserved for the executives sped out of the underground parking lot, carrying members from the Security Department’s second team and the General Affairs Department.

A social gathering between the Security Department and the General Affairs Department didn’t usually warrant the dispatch of the company cars reserved for executive outings.

However, the insistence of Mu Group’s CEO changed that.

Being a renowned businesswoman in Zhonghai, the CEO’s participation alone significantly elevated the status of the gathering, making the use of the executive cars seem reasonable.

Even if Mu Shanshan, the CEO known as the “iceberg,” hadn’t participated, the presence of the beautiful ministers Penny and Lin Fei, the Vice Minister of the Security Department, would have sufficed to keep the gathering’s prestige.

If Lin Fei intended to use the company’s executive cars, it wouldn’t have been out of line.

After all, Lin Fei held the informal title of “Crown Prince” in Mu Group.

Initially, Lin Fei had intended to use the executive cars, but with Mu Shanshan’s participation, it became even more justified.

“Minister Shen, I didn’t know you’d join our social gathering too.

If I remember correctly, you didn’t mention it in the report you submitted to me,” said the CEO from her BMW, her voice cool, sitting in the passenger seat.

“If I recall correctly, my report didn’t mention anything about you joining our gathering either,” Lin Fei replied, not particularly needing to save face for his boss and wife, his mood dictating his response.

“If you really don’t want me to join, you can pull over and let me out right now!”

Really?

Seeking death?

Although Lin Fei wanted to find an intersection to stop and leave his boss and wife as she had proposed, doing so would undoubtedly be suicidal!

By now, Lin Fei had realized he was in for a difficult night.

There was no way he could shake off Mu Shanshan; following them were the fiercely competitive Penny and the already dissatisfied Weiwei.

Earlier, in the underground parking lot, there had been a silent competition among the three women over whose car Lin Fei would take.

Weiwei, who had already made dinner plans with Lin Fei post-gathering, promptly suggested he ride with her.

Penny, Weiwei’s arch-rival, naturally rushed to open the car door for Lin Fei.

The outcome, of course, was clear.

Under the icy gaze of his boss and wife, despite Lin Fei’s desire to stir up some slight warmth with the alluring Penny in her car, or to discuss what to have for dinner with Weiwei, he had to obediently get into his boss’s car and assume the role of her driver.

…

The destination for Lin Fei and the others was the most famous self-service restaurant base in Zhonghai—Meishilin.

Despite being a self-service restaurant, it was not easily affordable for the average person.

Originally, according to the initial discussion among the second team of the Security Department, it was planned to just settle for a meal at a barbecue restaurant owned by Liu Hui.

However, once the dinner elevated to a joint gathering of the Security and General Affairs Departments, the barbecue place was clearly off the table.

Especially with the entrance of Mu Shanshan, the gathering’s status was significantly raised.

After discussions, and upon the seductive Penny’s suggestion, Meishilin became the unanimous choice for the group.

Though the average cost at Meishilin was beyond what the security team or the female staff from General Affairs could usually afford.

But, with the financially powerful Mu Shanshan in their corner—

With a sweep of her hand, she declared that all expenses would be covered by the company as an employee benefit.

Watching how the security team and female staff looked at their boss’s wife, their eyes filled with excited admiration, Lin Fei began to understand how Mu Shanshan led Mu Group in creating one business miracle after another.

She truly knew how to win people’s hearts!

…

“Now that we are here to gather, let’s not hold back and enjoy ourselves freely,” said Weiwei, substituting for the iceberg CEO Mu Shanshan with a brief speech as they entered Meishilin.

The already eager security team and the female staff from General Affairs Department quickly dispersed.

Lin Fei also wanted to leave, as all the various dishes served on the plates seemed to be waving him over.

Although he wasn’t exactly a foodie, it didn’t hinder his craving for delicacies.

Since it was Meishilin and had a consumption threshold of a thousand yuan, the food offered inside the restaurant exceeded most people’s imaginations.

And that spiral food staircase placed in the center of the lobby was seriously testing his hunger pangs!

However, Lin Fei could not leave.

Because, by his side, there were still three women who hadn’t left.

While being surrounded by three beauties was certainly enjoyable and brag-worthy for a man, given the choice, Lin Fei really wished he could have some quiet time alone.

“I’m here for the first time, if Vice Minister Lin doesn’t mind, could you guide me around?” The silence was merely temporary.

After the security guards of the second team and the women from the General Affairs Department had dispersed, Shen Peini, the mature and seductive enchantress, asked Lin Fei to accompany her.

“Shen Sister, how do you know that it’s not Lin Fei’s first time here either?” Clearly, Shen Peini wasn’t the only one who wanted Lin Fei’s company.

Ling Weiwei, who was already annoyed by Shen Peini’s interruption, was not about to let Shen Peini walk away with Lin Fei.

This was indeed the case even in front of Mu Shanshan.

If it were just the three of them privately, Ling Weiwei would not have been so polite.

She would have already coldly rebuked Shen Peini for cutting in.

Though she, Minister Ling, had previously sabotaged Shen Peini and Lin Fei’s hook-up plans several times, these affairs seemed temporarily forgotten by her.

At this moment, in Ling Weiwei’s heart, Lin Fei was supposed to be hers, and Shen Peini was the typical homewrecker!

“You don’t know, Ling Manager, a few days ago when I invited Vice Minister Lin to my house for some red wine, he mentioned to me—”

“Cough, cough!” Sensing the icy glares from his boss’s wife and beautiful Minister Ling Weiwei, Lin Fei quickly coughed out loud.

Damn, he couldn’t help coughing.

If he let Shen Peini continue, let alone what drastic reaction Weiwei might have.

A single icy look from Boss Mu could freeze Lin Fei to death.

Watching Shen Peini’s narrowed and seductive eyes throwing him glances, Lin Fei truly wished he could drag this temptress to a corner and chastise her harshly, teaching this woman a lesson.

Normally, speaking without restraint and even sometimes playfully flirting back with him, Lin the official, was bearable.

In front of Mu Shanshan, couldn’t she show a modicum of restraint?

“Vice Minister Lin, do you really like drinking red wine so much?!” Shen Peini was temporarily interrupted by Lin Fei’s heavy cough, but Ling Weiwei started stirring things up again.

Her lovely eyes fixed on Lin Fei as if she would not be pacified unless Lin Fei gave her a satisfactory answer.

Well, it wasn’t exactly stirring trouble, more accurately, Minister Ling was jealous!

Thinking she could win Lin Fei over by inviting him to her house for a meal, hoping to capture his heart by bonding over this intimate setting and severing his ties with Shen Peini, and thus tipping him entirely in her favor.

Unexpectedly, Lin Fei had already been to Shen Peini’s house.

This news struck Minister Ling like a bolt from the blue.

That Ling Weiwei did not throw a tantrum on the spot was a testament to her exceptional control over her emotions.

Of course, the presence of Mu Shanshan, the icy boss, was another significant reason.

“Today, we just eat, nothing else!”

“Eating and talking aren’t mutually exclusive, right?”

“Vice Minister Lin, you haven’t answered me yet, do you really like red wine that much?!”

Damn, you two aren’t afraid of dying, but can you consider my feelings for a moment?!

This was Lin Fei’s truest feeling at the moment.

If possible, he really wanted to tape the mouths of Shen Peini and Ling Weiwei shut!

What a joke, if you’re going to argue, can’t you pick a better time and not treat our big boss Mu as if she’s air?!

“If you want to continue standing here like sculptures for others to admire, you can choose to stay.” Although Meishilin had a high consumption level, in a global city like Zhonghai, wealthy people were not scarce.

Therefore, the customer flow in Meishilin was quite significant.

And, as Lin Fei and the three women were standing near the entrance of the Meishilin restaurant, any one of Mu Shanshan, Shen Peini, and Ling Weiwei could attract the attention of countless admirers.

And now, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the three women were subtly surrounding Lin Fei.

Any discerning person could tell at a glance that the four were together.

With the stunning beauty of Mu Shanshan’s trio, it was impossible not to draw attention.

And Lin Fei, subtly surrounded by the three women, undoubtedly became the collective target of jealousy from all the men watching.

If the four continued to stay there, the only outcomes awaiting Lin the official were two.

One was to be plotted against by Shen Peini and Ling Weiwei in their covert battle.

The other was to be metaphorically killed by the envious glares of other men!
