The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 222 Money can't corrupt you, but what about beauty?
The air suddenly fell silent. In that instant, no matter how shrewd and sophisticated these elites were, they were all momentarily at a loss for what to say.

Mockery? Comfort?
Obviously, none of them are suitable.

Someone broke the awkward silence by asking, "Miss Gu is from Pingjiang, right? Does Mr. Lin also work in Pingjiang?"

Gu Yuexi smiled and said, "He used to work in the company's sales department, but recently he was transferred to Linhai for work. I want to be with him, so I signed up for this class, partly to keep him company and partly to learn something."

For a moment, no one knew how to comment.

Is it required for work?
Putting aside the sales situation, what kind of operation is it for a company to transfer a salesperson to work as a security guard?
Security guards are everywhere; a job posting can fill all the positions in minutes. Why would they need to transfer people from Pingjiang to Linhai?

Do you, a salesperson and a security guard, really have that much charm?
And you even had a beauty like Gu Yuexi come all the way to Linhai to keep you company?
Are you a gigolo?
Gu Yuexi bought you the watch, right?

Gu Yuexi's words made Lin Chen a little embarrassed.

You woman, you did this on purpose, didn't you!
Seeing the incomprehensible expressions and gazes of a group of wealthy people, she was probably bursting with laughter inside.

However, the fact that Gu Yuexi could talk about her profession so casually and with such pride, completely unconcerned about other people's opinions and even enjoying watching their reactions, only shows that she truly adores herself.

Only when a woman feels that her man is good enough and excellent enough can she be completely indifferent to other people's opinions.

Not wanting to become the enemy of the men at the dinner table, Lin Chen took the initiative to explain, "I'm not very capable. I only know a little about medicine and I'm pretty good at fighting. The boss probably thought that I wouldn't be able to sell anything in the sales department anyway, so he simply transferred me to Linhai to guard the gate. It's a good use of my talents, after all, she can't just pay my salary for nothing."

Good at fighting?

Everyone suddenly realized that although this wasn't exactly a special skill, it was actually quite suitable for being a security guard.

Gu Yuexi smiled slightly and didn't say anything more, after all, too much of a good thing can be bad.

"Come on, come on, drink."

At the dinner table, glasses clinked and the atmosphere gradually became lively.

As Lin Chen had said before, the conversation at the dinner table revolved around company management, policy trends, and industry matters, which Lin Chen knew nothing about and couldn't join in at all.

Lin Chen didn't mind at all, chatting and laughing quietly with Gu Yuexi while burying his head in eating all kinds of delicious food.

Gu Yuexi kept putting food on Lin Chen's plate and chuckled softly, "Where do you usually eat?"

Lin Chen put down a piece of pork rib in his hand and laughed, "In the morning, we buy steamed buns and fried dough sticks from the roadside. At noon, we eat at the factory canteen, and in the evening, we go to the food stalls outside the gate. Most of the people in the security department are young, and many of them are unmarried. They form groups of three or five to have dinner together and can even have a drink together." Gu Yuexi said with a grin, "Isn't that lively? No wonder you enjoy it so much."

Lin Chen replied, "That's fine. I don't plan to move for now."

Gu Yuexi asked curiously, "Is there anything new?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "A bunch of parasites in the factory, relying on being locals, colluded with thugs from outside to try and extort money from your sister. They even brought a large group of thugs to block the gate, but I beat them up. They weren't satisfied, so they called even more people, and the road in front of the factory was completely blocked..."

Gu Yuexi's eyes lit up immediately, and she asked expectantly, "What happens next?"

"No fight broke out."

Lin Chen replied with a grin, "My sister and I went out to eat before and we saved an old man who had fainted. That man's family is quite powerful. His son came to invite me to dinner and we happened to run into him. He slapped the thug leader twice, gave his name, and the thug leader slunk away with his men. Later, he also beat up those corrupt officials in the factory and helped the factory get rid of them as an apology."

Gu Yuexi looked longingly at him, her face full of regret: "Alas, it's a pity I wasn't there to see you display your prowess. But my sister has had it so tough. For a woman to face such a situation, brother, please help her out, okay?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Haven't we already helped? From now on, no one in that area will dare to cause trouble for the pharmaceutical factory. The parasites have all been cleaned up, and all the company assets that were embezzled have been returned. I reckon it should be quite a lot..."

As they were talking, Lin Chen's phone screen flashed, and a message arrived.

Lin Chen picked up his phone and glanced at it, his eyes showing slight surprise.

Seeing Gu Yuexi's curious yet shy expression as she looked at his phone screen, Lin Chen turned his phone around and pointed the screen directly at her.

"Your sister is really generous. All the money that group of people returned totaled twenty million, and she gave me half of it..."

Gu Yuexi's eyes widened: "Ten million? That much?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "That's why I say your sister is generous."

Gu Yuexi blinked: "My sister is very generous in handling things, but you must stick to your principles and not be corrupted by money, understand?"

Lin Chen smiled slightly: "Money can't corrupt me."

Gu Yuexi opened her eyes wide and snorted, "Money can't corrupt you, but beauty can, right?"
