Fresh out of the shower and dressed in clean clothes, Shen Tian walked into a massive garage with a donut in his mouth.
Rows upon rows of luxury cars filled the enormous space.
Ferraris.
Lamborghinis.
Rolls-Royces.
Aston Martins.
Limited-edition hypercars most people would only ever see online.
Shen Tian slowly looked around while tapping his chin thoughtfully.
"...Which one should I take?"
Since the banquet wasn’t until tonight, he still had the entire day free.
And honestly?
He had no intention of wasting it.
The more Fate Value he stripped from Ye Chen early on.
The easier things would beco later.
Eventually, Shen Tian stopped in front of a black Bugatti Chiron.
"...Yep, this one."
A few monts later, he climbed inside and started the engine.
The deep roar of the vehicle echoed beautifully throughout the garage.
Just as Shen Tian was about to drive off...
His phone suddenly rang.
Glancing at the caller ID, he raised an eyebrow slightly.
Ling Shuangxue.
Shen Tian picked up imdiately while fastening his seatbelt.
The call connected.
"What’s up?"
He instantly noticed sothing.
Ling Shuangxue sounded irritated.
Very irritated.
"Where are you right now?" she asked coldly.
Shen Tian slowly backed the Bugatti out of its parking spot.
"In my garage. About to head out."
Then he narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Why?"
Ling Shuangxue let out a frustrated sigh on the other end.
"...Ye Chen is my bodyguard again."
Shen Tian’s eyebrows imdiately rose.
"What? I thought you fired him."
"I did!"
Her tone instantly beca more annoyed.
"But my father threatened to pull his investnts out of my company if I removed him. And if my company loses the Ling Family’s backing, other investors will panic and leave too."
Ling Shuangxue sounded genuinely frustrated.
"I’m trapped right now."
Shen Tian slowly smirked while pulling out of the mansion driveway.
"Is Ye Chen with you right now?"
"He’s outside my office. My secretary is keeping him occupied for the mont."
Hearing that, Shen Tian’s smile widened slightly.
"...Interesting."
Then he casually shifted gears.
"Alright. I’ll head over."
A brief pause followed.
Then Ling Shuangxue’s tone subtly softened.
"...Really?"
For the first ti since the call started, she sounded slightly happier.
She genuinely wanted to see him.
"Yep," Shen Tian replied casually.
"I’ll be there in thirty minutes."
Before she could respond again.
He hung up.
Then imdiately accelerated onto the road.
The Bugatti roared through the city like a black beast.
. . .
Seeing the call end, Ling Shuangxue slowly lowered her phone.
Without realizing it...
She lightly pressed it against her chest while spinning once in her office chair.
A faint smile almost appeared on her face.
Her heartbeat had even sped up slightly.
’Thirty minutes...’
For so reason, just hearing Shen Tian say he was coming over made her mood improve considerably.
That pleasant feeling vanished instantly.
Knock knock.
"Boss..."
A tired female voice ca from outside the office.
"I can’t stop him anymore..."
The door slowly cracked open as Ling Shuangxue’s secretary peeked her head inside with an exhausted expression.
Ling Shuangxue imdiately sighed.
"...Just let him in."
The secretary looked relieved beyond words.
"Yes, Boss."
She fully opened the door before stepping aside.
The mont Ye Chen walked inside...
His eyes imdiately locked onto the secretary’s backside.
[Damn...]
[Maybe it’s just a cupcake, but honestly all cake is edible.]
Ling Shuangxue’s expression instantly darkened.
Disgust rose in her chest again.
This man truly had no sha whatsoever.
"Go sit in the corner," she said coldly.
"And behave. I need to work."
Ye Chen imdiately straightened proudly and gave a salute.
"Of course, Young Miss!"
Then, without hesitation...
He happily walked toward the corner chair and sat down obediently.
Almost like a large, overexcited dog.
Or more accurately...
A cuck chair enthusiast.
Ling Shuangxue rubbed her temple tiredly.
anwhile, Ye Chen began casually whistling to himself while sitting there.
The sound instantly made Ling Shuangxue stop reviewing docunts.
"...Can you stop that?"
Ye Chen blinked innocently.
"Hm?"
"The whistling," Ling Shuangxue said coldly.
"It’s annoying."
"Oh."
Ye Chen imdiately stopped.
anwhile, the secretary standing nearby looked increasingly confused.
Because honestly...
No matter how she looked at it...
This man seed completely unqualified to serve as the personal bodyguard of this famous iceberg CEO.
His clothes looked cheap.
His behavior lacked class.
And his eyes constantly wandered around the room like a starving stray dog.
’How did this guy even get hired?’
Ye Chen noticed the secretary glance at him briefly.
A smug smile spread across his face.
[Another woman falls for just by looking at my perfect body...]
The confidence in his inner voice was overwhelming.
Then, trying to appear attractive, Ye Chen suddenly adjusted his sitting posture dramatically.
One leg crossed.
Arm stretched outward.
Chest puffed slightly.
Instead of looking seductive, he looked like a man trying way too hard.
To make things even worse.
He suddenly spat a little saliva onto his palm before slicking back his hair.
Ling Shuangxue: "...."
Secretary: "...."
Both won imdiately looked physically ill.
The secretary quickly lowered her head to hide her expression.
Ling Shuangxue genuinely felt her soul taking damage.
’I can’t take this anymore...’
Still, she forced herself to continue reviewing docunts while completely ignoring Ye Chen’s existence.
And so...
Thirty painful minutes slowly passed.
Finally...
Buzz.
Ling Shuangxue’s phone vibrated.
Glancing downward, her cold eyes instantly softened slightly.
It was a ssage from Shen Tian.
I’m here.
Without hesitation, Ling Shuangxue imdiately stood up from her chair.
The movent was so fast it startled her secretary slightly.
"Boss?"
Ling Shuangxue grabbed her phone and calmly walked toward the office door.
"Co with ."
The secretary imdiately followed behind.
Naturally...
Ye Chen also stood up and followed after them like an obedient dog.
"So where are we going?" he asked curiously.
Ling Shuangxue ignored him completely.
The three entered the elevator together before descending toward the first floor.
Once the doors opened...
Ling Shuangxue imdiately walked through the company lobby toward the front entrance.
And there...
Standing outside beside a black Bugatti...
Was Shen Tian.
One hand casually rested in his pocket while the other held a bouquet of flowers.
Leaning against the car, he looked absurdly handso beneath the daylight.
The mont Ling Shuangxue saw him.
Her mood visibly improved.
On the other hand, Ye Chen’s expression instantly twisted into pure rage as he subconsciously covered his crotch.
After painfully reattaching it himself, the once "heaven-defying dragon" was now reduced to a tragic 2-inch "little ant below the heavens."
And Shen Tian’s appearance only brought those traumatic mories back.
[WHY IS THIS BASTARD HERE?!]
Ye Chen nearly gritted his teeth into powder.
[This demon... this monster... this thief of manhood!]
