The Personal Bodyguard of the Female CEO
Chapter 124 - 124 123 The Disheartened Female CEO

124: Chapter 123: The Disheartened Female CEO 124: Chapter 123: The Disheartened Female CEO “Manager, I’d like to ask for a day off today,” Wang Dadong said indifferently.

“Asking for a day off?

Do you even have the face to ask for a leave?

Do you realize…”

Before Zeng Xiaozhang could finish speaking, Wang Dadong had already left the surveillance room, not caring to listen to his nagging.

“You!” Zeng Xiaozhang was furious.

So close to death, yet still so arrogant.

Wait till I make you pack your bags and get lost!

“Brother Wang, are you okay?” Seeing Wang Dadong sitting in the lobby smoking, Lv Xiaoqian asked with some concern.

Ever since she found out that Wang Dadong was married to Lin Shiyan, Lv Xiaoqian had deliberately avoided him.

Compared to Lin Shiyan, she was like a speck of dust on the ground compared to the high and lofty moon.

So, even though her heart was full of thoughts, she could only bury them deep within.

If it was always going to be impossible, then better to be strangers; without thinking, there would be no longing, and without longing, there would be no pain.

Some say it only takes a second to fall in love with someone.

Lv Xiaoqian didn’t believe it before, but now she had no choice but to.

She didn’t even know when she started liking Wang Dadong.

Was it when he fiercely beat up that disgusting lewd manager?

Or when she found out he had secretly helped her recover that bad debt?

Or maybe it was when he held her like a child and cried in her arms.

Lv Xiaoqian didn’t know.

The only thing she knew was that she didn’t deserve to compete with such an outstanding woman for a man.

Seeing Wang Dadong, she originally wanted to walk straight past him.

But when she saw Wang Dadong sitting there, smoking with a sorrowful look, her heart immediately ached.

She couldn’t understand why the husband of the company’s CEO would be working as a security guard in the company.

Having such an outstanding woman, Brother Wang must be under a lot of pressure, right?

She really wanted to go over and give him a hug, but she couldn’t.

In the end, all she could offer was a bland greeting.

Wang Dadong shook his head and asked, “Xiao Qian, how have you been lately?”

“I, I’m doing okay.”

From Lv Xiaoqian’s expression, Wang Dadong could tell that she was not doing well; she looked somewhat thin and haggard.

Wang Dadong thought of a line of poetry, ‘For her, I’ve pined away; love grown all-consuming,’ which seemed apt to describe Lv Xiaoqian’s current state.

He just didn’t know who it was that caused Lv Xiaoqian’s thinness.

He also didn’t have the energy to think about this problem right now.

He was trying to figure out how to catch the thief.

Or rather, how to recoup the losses of Shiyan Group.

Only now he didn’t have a single clue, and recent times had indeed been fraught with many troubles!

The overly powerful Silver-faced Lady, the suddenly emerging God Forbidden Zone, the theft at Shiyan Group.

Were these just coincidences, or were they signaling something?

Wang Dadong had a headache.

…

“Why has Shiyan Group delayed the launch of Beauty Generation Four?”

“In the development of Beauty Generation Four, we’ve encountered some minor issues.

However, these issues will soon be resolved, and I believe it won’t be long before the cost-effective Beauty Generation Four will meet everyone,” Lin Shiyan said with a professional smile on her face.

“Can you tell us what problems you encountered?”

“Sorry, that is a trade secret, and I can’t disclose it.”

“Surely you’re not just hyping up Shiyan Group purposely?”

“At Shiyan Group, we never engage in senseless hype.

We only hope to make better products~”

Facing the reporters’ questions, Lin Shiyan maintained a smile throughout.

…

On the television, the latest press conference of the Shiyan Group was being broadcast.

Seeing Lin Shiyan’s seemingly calm and strong face on TV, Wang Dadong felt extremely pained.

He really wanted to do something for her, but he didn’t know what to do.

At eleven o’clock at night, Lin Shiyan finally returned home.

She used to work overtime every day, but this was the first time she stayed so late.

“Wife, have something to eat before you sleep.

I’ll make you a bowl of noodles.”

“You eat, I’m not hungry.” Lin Shiyan went straight back to her room.

Wang Dadong could see that the female CEO had indeed suffered a tremendous blow this time.

Back in her room, Lin Shiyan didn’t go to sleep but entered an endless series of phone “harassments.”

This “harassment,” of course, wasn’t real harassment, but calls from the major shareholders of the Shiyan Group.

With the postponement of the public listing of Beauty, she had to give the shareholders an explanation.

After dealing with the shareholders, there was still a lot of work waiting for her, crisis management, finding new product replacements, how to stabilize the mood of the investors, and so on.

All the pressure had fallen solely upon Lin Shiyan.

At that time, Wang Dadong also left the East County Villa.

In a corner of an internet cafe, Wang Dadong was looking at a computer screen with a man with white hair.

The man with white hair wasn’t just conspicuous because of his white hair, in this dimly lit internet cafe, he was also wearing dark sunglasses.

“Boss, I suspect that the person who stole the formula is actually inside Jinding.” After watching the video for a while, Ji Wuye said with a frown.

“Oh?

How so?”

“Just a moment, boss,” said Ji Wuye as his fingers flew across the keyboard like springs.

The original surveillance video was quickly broken down into a series of images.

“Boss, look here,” Ji Wuye opened a relatively clear image.

There were noticeable jagged edges around the silhouette of the hooded person.

These jagged edges typically only appear when using Photoshop to cut out images.

While this technique wasn’t particularly sophisticated, it would be difficult to notice without breaking the video down into frame-by-frame images.

After all, ordinary people wouldn’t analyze a video frame by frame, and only the King of Everlasting Night, with his divine eyes, could spot those minute differences in the continuously playing images.

It turned out that the hooded person was nothing more than a blinding method played by the thief, intended to make people believe that someone from the outside had stolen the formula.

Now the situation had become much simpler.

At this point, they only needed to find the computer that modified the video.

Since the culprit was an expert with computers, they certainly wouldn’t have modified it in the surveillance room but used hacking techniques to alter it remotely instead.

Soon, Ji Wuye located the computer which had accessed the surveillance room’s hard drive.

“The IP address of this computer is 192.168.1.101.

I just need to find out the network structure of Jinding Building to pinpoint this computer’s location.

However, Jinding’s network structure is very complex, it will take at least half an hour to sort it out,” Ji Wuye said, his fingers rapidly operating the computer.

“No need to search, I know who’s using that computer,” Wang Dadong suddenly said, “Alright, Wuye, it was hard work calling you back from so far away.”

“Whenever, wherever I am, just a call from the boss, and I will rush over immediately,” Ji Wuye said with utmost seriousness.
