The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 106 Each and Every Gift

"Sun Ye?"

Lin Chen leaned back in his chair, his eyes filled with disbelief: "Your cousin's high school classmate?"

"Yes, he asked me to dinner, saying it was to discuss rectification issues, and I had to agree. I'd like to ask you to come with me, is that alright?"

Lin Chen readily agreed: "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Chen's expression was somewhat subtle.

It's true what they say, things really do change!
Yesterday I heard Sun Ye bragging about his position as deputy head of the inspection team, and today he's already taking down Chuhe Group.

Is it because of Gu Yuexi?

Sun Ye is really petty; he's taking out his resentment towards Gu Yuexi on Chu Jiaxue.

Today's dinner party seems like a trap; who knows what demands they'll make?
Lin Chen thought about it for a moment and realized that he definitely couldn't see Sun Ye. Otherwise, if Sun Ye saw him, not only would his secret be exposed, but he would also make things very difficult for Chu Jiaxue.

Sun Ye is an official, and it would be inappropriate to use violence against him directly, since Sun Ye is abusing his power and taking advantage of the situation. To get out of this predicament, we need to start from other angles.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment, then came up with an idea and got up to leave the office.

He needs to prepare something.

Meanwhile, Chu Jiaxue sat in her office, thought for a long time, and then got up and left.

She hadn't had a chance to thank Lin Chen for saving her last time, and now she was troubling him again. She should at least do something to show her gratitude.

Besides, I can't possibly go to meet Sun Ye empty-handed that evening.

She needs to prepare something.

……

Before leaving get off work, Lin Chen drove back to the company.

I had just parked my car in the underground garage when I saw a familiar white BMW X7 drive in from outside.

Lin Chen was slightly surprised. Chu Jiaxue had just returned as well?

Chu Jiaxue parked the car, and then Lin Chen's phone rang.

Have you finished your work?

Lin Chen got off the bus carrying a small bag, and replied on his phone, "It's done."

Chu Jiaxue said softly, "I'll wait for you in the garage..."

Chu Jiaxue didn't receive a reply from Lin Chen on the phone, but suddenly someone knocked on the car door.

Chu Jiaxue was startled. She turned around and saw that it was Lin Chen. She breathed a sigh of relief and quickly unlocked the car door.

What are you doing here? You scared me!

Lin Chen sat in the back seat and smiled, "I went out to get something, I just got back."

Chu Jiaxue looked slightly embarrassed: "I'm going out to buy some things too... Here, this is for you." Lin Chen was taken aback, looking at the handbag Chu Jiaxue handed him: "What's this?"

Chu Jiaxue's face flushed slightly: "I haven't even thanked you for saving me last time, and I'm so sorry to trouble you again today. This is a small token of my gratitude, please accept it."

Lin Chen smiled broadly and said, "Okay!"

Taking the handbag, Lin Chen opened the small box inside, his eyes lighting up slightly.

Inside the box was a Patek Philippe men's watch with a black metal compass, exuding a sophisticated and elegant style. It was a newly released model this year and came with a hefty price tag.

"Your thank-you gift is quite substantial; this watch must be worth over a million."

Chu Jiaxue pursed her lips: "Compared to what you did for me, a watch is insignificant; it's just a small token of my appreciation."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "The watch is beautiful, I like it very much, thank you!"

Chu Jiaxue breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Lin Chen accept the gift.

She is independent and doesn't like owing favors. As she said, Lin Chen saved her life, and a watch is certainly not enough to repay that kindness, but it can at least express her gratitude.

"If you like it, that's fine... Shall we leave now?"

"and many more."

Lin Chen took out his handbag and smiled as he pulled out a small box: "I'll also give you a small gift."

Chu Jiaxue's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.

Gift?

A gift for myself?
Why would he give me a gift for no reason?
Lin Chen didn't hand the box to her, but opened it himself, revealing a pair of jade earrings inside.

"There's a tiny device inside these earrings that can locate and eavesdrop. If you wear them, I can hear everything you talk about and even record it. I think we might get something out of this tonight..."

Chu Jiaxue snapped back to reality. Uh, it wasn't a real gift.

Bug?
For some reason, Chu Jiaxue felt a strange sense of loss.

Lin Chen handed the earring to Chu Jiaxue: "There's a raised dot on the back of this earring. Press it, and the device inside will work and connect to the app on my phone. I can then check your location and eavesdrop on what's happening around you. Press it again, and it will stop working."

Chu Jiaxue took the earring and examined it, inwardly surprised. This wasn't something an ordinary person could buy, was it?
"Where did you buy such exquisite things?"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Special channel... You should wear it. That way, you won't be like last time, where I was in a soundproof room and didn't know what was happening outside."

"it is good!"

Chu Jiaxue obediently took off her own earrings and put on this pair of jade earrings. She looked at herself in the rearview mirror and thought they were a perfect match.

Lin Chen smiled and praised, "It looks very nice, but the jade quality is just average. You can wear it as is."

"Thank you!"

Chu Jiaxue thanked her politely, but her heart was inexplicably filled with joy.

A gift he gave himself?
That’s right?
