The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 47 Only One Can Live

The young man holding the DV camera turned pale instantly.

He knew Lin Chen was a fighter, but he didn't know Lin Chen was this good!

Those ordinary thugs who only knew how to fight were one thing, but the one who finally made a move was Ma Ding, one of the Three Heroes of Black Bamboo, known as "Quick Blade"!
Ma Ding comes from a family of martial artists and has practiced knife skills since childhood. He is said to be able to wield a knife so fast that water cannot penetrate it, and he can make eight cuts on a person in the blink of an eye. He is one of the three top henchmen under the boss of Black Bamboo Company.

The invincible Ma Ding was knocked to the ground by Lin Chen with an iron rod, his life hanging in the balance, and he was defeated just like that!

The young man knelt down cleanly and decisively.

"Brother, I'm just following orders. Ask me anything you want to know, but please forgive me this once."

Lin Chen scoffed, "You're quite pragmatic, aren't you? Tell me, what's going on?"

Without the slightest hesitation, the young man said, "My name is Lai Yiliang, and I come from Heizhu Company. On the surface, Heizhu Company is a labor service company that undertakes various construction projects. On the other hand, it also engages in lending, debt collection, and other businesses. We also do dirty work that requires money to do things."

"The company boss is called Li Liangwen, and people call him Brother Wen. I am the boss's assistant. Yesterday, Brother Wen instructed me to do this and asked me to record the process with a DV camera. He said it was the client's request and that they couldn't let me die too easily. But I really don't know who asked Brother Wen to do this. After all, he is the boss and I am his subordinate."

Lin Chen pointed the iron rod in his hand at the unconscious Ma Ding: "This man is quite skilled with a knife."

Lai Yiliang explained, “His name is Ma Ding. He is one of the three top fighters in our Black Bamboo. He is known as one of the Three Heroes of Black Bamboo along with Iron Fist Zhou Minghao and Evil Ghost Tao Kun. He has quite a reputation in this circle. The boss said that you are quite good at fighting, so he sent Ma Ding to complete this task. I am the executor and recorder of this matter.”

Lin Chen's gaze fell on the DV in Lai Yiliang's hand. Lai Yiliang turned on the DV, pulled out the memory card, and snapped it in half with a snap.

“Brother, we’ve never seen you before. They were just drunk and got into a fight. It has nothing to do with you.”

Lai Yiliang stretched out his arm: "If you're still angry, then do what they did and break one of my arms. I can't bring myself to do it, so I'll have to trouble you, brother."

Lin Chen couldn't help but laugh.

You could say this guy is bold, since he knelt down the fastest and most nimbly without hesitation; you could say he's timid, yet when he talks about these things, he's clean and efficient, his tone rapid but not flustered, logical and methodical, and he even dared to reach out and ask me to break his arm.

Lin Chen dropped the iron rod and laughed, "I'll let you off this time since you've been so cooperative. But you have to go back and give your boss a message for me."

Lai Yiliang's eyes lit up: "Big brother, what are your orders!"

Lin Chen said calmly, "Someone hired him to kill me, and he did it. Logically, I should kill him now. However, I'm willing to give him a chance to make amends. If he kills the person who hired him to kill me within three days, then this matter will be over. If the employer is still alive after three days, then I'm sorry, he has no choice but to die."

Lai Yiliang's face hardened: "Does Big Brother mean that only one of the boss and the employer can live?" Lin Chen laughed: "Perfect comprehension, get lost."

Lai Yiliang breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him profusely, "Thank you, brother!"

Lin Chen ignored the group and drove away.

Back home, Chu Jiaxue had already taken a shower and was sitting in a chair reading a book. Even though she was wearing loose cotton pajamas, her slender figure was still undeniable.

Lin Chen took a shower first, which was his daily habit. He would always make sure he was clean and tidy before entering the bedroom, since he was sleeping in Chu Jiaxue's bed.

"You appointed me as acting team leader today, not because Qian Buyi was targeting me, right?"

The Qian family is the second largest shareholder of Chuhe Group and has been vying for power with the Chu family. Qian Buyi is the group's vice president and is Chu Jiaxue's biggest rival at present.

Chu Jiaxue kept her eyes on the book and didn't look up: "Your evidence is conclusive, and he has nothing to say. However, Dong Yunjiang is Qian Buyi's man. You must achieve something next, and it would be best to finalize the order contract with Honghe Hospital as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will cause you trouble."

Lin Chen nodded: "I had dinner with Director Zhao from Honghe Hospital tonight. The contract has already been given to them, and it should be finalized tomorrow."

Chu Jiaxue breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. What are your plans for the future?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm just going through the motions. Didn't you say you were going to be an agent for three months? This is the perfect time. I'll leave when the time comes."

Chu Jiaxue paused for two seconds: "Okay, just don't cause any trouble for the next three months."

Lin Chen asked with great interest, "I heard that you're being targeted by Qian Buyi at the company and are having a hard time getting by?"

Chu Jiaxue pursed her lips: "That's none of your business."

Lin Chen shrugged: "Okay, I guess I was being nosy."

Chu Jiaxue's phone suddenly rang. She turned to the side and answered the call.

"Xiaoxi... um, at the company tomorrow... at noon... okay, I'll wait for you at the company, call me when you arrive."
