The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 268 Friends? I don't quite understand.
Lin Chen's wife is so beautiful! Her temperament is truly unparalleled, making one feel an irresistible urge to conquer her.

I wonder if a woman like this can maintain her icy demeanor in bed?

Zuo Yingying's mood was complicated, and her thoughts were wandering.

Chu Jiaxue looked at Zuo Yingying's very feminine face, her heart filled with a hidden envy.

This is the kind of woman who is most attractive to men; she is feminine from head to toe.

Lin Chen must have been attracted to her too.

The two had even kissed, and Lin Chen had even touched her...

Chu Jiaxue felt a strange pang of sadness in her heart.

Both of them were a little distracted, and their handshake unconsciously lasted a bit longer, but neither of them realized it.

It wasn't until their eyes met again in mid-air that they snapped out of their daze and simultaneously let go of each other's hands.

"Miss Zuo, please have a seat."

After gesturing for Zuo Yingying to sit down, Chu Jiaxue walked to the tea cabinet and smiled, "Tea, coffee, or water?"

"Tea, thank you."

Chu Jiaxue took out tea leaves, personally brewed a cup of tea for Zuo Yingying, and brought it over.

Zuo Yingying stood up, extended both hands, and politely accepted the teacup: "Thank you!"

That's a bit too polite.

Chu Jiaxue thought to herself as she returned to her seat and asked, "Miss Zuo, you just said you wanted to see me about the raw material supply?"

Zuo Yingying nodded: "Yes, I understand the difficulties your company is facing."

Chu Jiaxue chuckled and said, "Miss Zuo, you probably don't work in this industry, so why are you interested in this? Did Lin Chen tell you?"

Zuo Yingying shook her head: "No, he didn't tell me about it. I found out by chance."

Not Lin Chen?

Chu Jiaxue had previously thought that Lin Chen had sought help from the Zuo family, but now it seemed that wasn't the case.

Chu Jiaxue calmly asked, "So, what did Miss Zuo want to talk to me about today?"

Zuo Yingying smiled and said, "I have already bought up all the goods in the hands of your three suppliers."

Chu Jiaxue frowned slightly, a strange tension gripping her heart. What was Zuo Yingying planning to do?
Is he using this shipment to blackmail me?

What about Lin Chen?

Chu Jiaxue said crisply, "Miss Zuo, why don't you get straight to the point?"

Zuo Yingying smiled and said, "Okay, to put it simply, all the goods are currently in my hands. If you want them, just pay up and I'll bring them over whenever you pay."

Chu Jiaxue smiled and asked, "How much?"

Zuo Yingying's lips curled up slightly: "The original price. The price I paid is the same as the price you paid. You can just buy it back at this price."

Chu Jiaxue was stunned.

Original price?

If you buy a new unit and then sell it back to me at the original price without making a single penny, what's your motive?
A hint of amusement flickered in Zuo Yingying's eyes; she seemed pleased to see the astonishment in Chu Jiaxue's eyes.

"Did you think I bought this to resell it to you at a higher price?"

Chu Jiaxue stared into Zuo Yingying's bright eyes, which were as clear as an autumn pond, and asked softly, "Are you doing this to help me? Or, to help Lin Chen?"

Zuo Yingying chuckled and said, "Yes, Lin Chen and I are friends. He was too embarrassed to ask me, but I happened to find out, so I just helped him out and resolved the matter. I also wanted to meet you. I had heard him say that his wife was as beautiful as an angel, and seeing her today, it's true. Even I, a woman, am smitten."

Chu Jiaxue was momentarily at a loss for words when Lin Chen praised her as being as beautiful as an angel.
impossible!
This must have been added by Zuo Yingying herself!

Lin Chen didn't ask her for help, but she offered to help him. After helping him, she didn't tell Lin Chen and went directly to him, saying she wanted to see him.
Could it be that Zuo Yingying has fallen for Lin Chen?
Is he using this opportunity to meet me to assess myself and then judge Lin Chen's intentions?
"You and Lin Chen..."

Before Chu Jiaxue could finish speaking, she stared at Zuo Yingying, waiting for her to give her answer.

Zuo Yingying chuckled and said, "Miss Chu, don't overthink it. Lin Chen and I are just friends. This was just a favor between friends. We didn't want to directly confront the Chu family, so we went through this round to subtly express our support. However, I believe that after this experience, the Chu family will no longer restrict your supply of raw materials."

Helping each other out among friends?
Why do I find it hard to believe?

Chu Jiaxue chuckled and said, "I should have told Lin Chen about this, otherwise he'll complain about me later."

Zuo Yingying shook her head and said, "There's no need to tell him. He didn't tell me before because he didn't want my help. What if he gets stubborn and prefers not to take the raw materials rather than ask me for help? I'm helping you and coming to see you in person because I hope to make friends with you."

You and my husband kissed and touched each other, now you want to be my friend?
Stubborn?
Why does your statement make you seem so close to Lin Chen?

Chu Jiaxue hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help asking, "I don't quite understand. I know about your relationship, so why do you still want to be friends with me?"
