The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 87 Are you willing to accept this?
Chu Jiaxue's eyes were slightly red, but otherwise her expression seemed quite normal.

It was obvious that Chu Jiaxue had used the time while Lin Chen was cooking noodles to adjust her emotions.

"Let's eat in the study."

"it is good!"

The two entered the study and sat down on either side of the desk.

Chu Jiaxue hadn't eaten much that evening, and after such a fright, she was starving. As she ate the noodles with minced meat sauce in her bowl, she found them more delicious than ever before.

Lin Chen finished the large bowl of noodles quickly, drank a big mouthful of soup, and put down his chopsticks with satisfaction.

After eating and drinking his fill, Lin Chen felt like smoking. He subconsciously took out a cigarette and lighter, and was about to light it when he remembered Chu Jiaxue across from him. He paused and put the lighter down.

Chu Jiaxue said softly, "Go ahead and smoke, it's fine."

"it is good."

Lin Chen lit a cigarette, took a puff, and gently exhaled the smoke: "Is there really no other way?"

Chu Jiaxue paused with her chopsticks: "We've tried every possible method and contacted every possible connection."

Lin Chen thought for a moment: "What is the current funding gap?"

Chu Jiaxue replied, "Originally, we were only short 200 million, but now our accounts have been emptied. We need to maintain the company's normal operation, at least 50 million. In total, we need at least 250 million in loans, and the 50 million must be received within a few days, otherwise we won't be able to pay the employees' salaries."

Lin Chen stared at Chu Jiaxue: "What are you going to do?"

Chu Jiaxue hadn't slept all night and had already figured everything out: "There will be a shareholders' meeting on Monday morning, and I will resign."

Lin Chen asked, "I have a video on my phone of Hu Sen dictating that he was instructed by Qian Buyi. Is that useful?"

Chu Jiaxue shook her head: "It's true that money is hard to come by. More importantly, it's not about whose behavior is wrong, but whoever can solve the company's problems can become the president. If I can't get a loan, the company can't operate normally, and the shareholders will put all the responsibility on me. They only care about the results, not the process."

Lin Chen nodded: "Are you willing to accept this?"

Chu Jiaxue sighed, revealing her feminine vulnerability for the first time in front of Lin Chen: "What's the use of being unwilling? Qian Buyi is backed by the Aotian Group. Even my Qian family might not be able to compete with them, let alone the Aotian Group. I believe I have vision and ability to lead the company to rapid development, but I can't stop a bunch of people from sabotaging me and stabbing me in the back..."

Lin Chen took a couple of puffs of his cigarette and asked softly, "If someone were willing to lend you money, would you stick with it?" Chu Jiaxue nodded without hesitation, "As long as there's even a glimmer of hope, I'll naturally stick with it. I hope that one day I can acquire their shares and completely control Chuhe Group, so that I won't be controlled by others like I am now."

Lin Chen finished his cigarette, stood up and said, "Eat well and get some rest. Things are what they are, try to think positively."

Chu Jiaxue pursed her lips and stared sincerely at Lin Chen: "Lin Chen, thank you for saving me. If it weren't for you today, my fate would have been terrible."

Lin Chen replied casually, "It was nothing, no need to thank me. You're not stupid, at least you knew to call me along. If you didn't even have this much caution, even if nothing happened today, you would have been eaten clean sooner or later."

Chu Jiaxue's face flushed red.

笨？
Okay, I admit it, I am indeed an idiot.

Watching Lin Chen's departing figure, Chu Jiaxue felt a complex mix of emotions. Although she had been slumped in her chair, she had heard everything that had happened around her.

Lin Chen dealt with the four bodyguards, took care of Hu Sen, and finally slapped each of the three accomplices across the face.

This man is so domineering!
Chu Jiaxue's parents died early, and her grandfather is old. She struggles alone, always bearing her hardships and burdens alone, and swallowing her tears. No one has ever given her this kind of care and made her feel a sense of security she has never felt before.

The moment Chu Jiaxue was on Lin Chen's back, she had a feeling that as long as this man was there, even if the sky fell, he could hold him back!

If he really were her husband, he would definitely protect her for the rest of his life, just like he does today.
Thinking of this, Chu Jiaxue's heart suddenly beat faster.

But the next second, when Chu Jiaxue thought about what she had to do and the behemoth she had to face, her initial excitement was like being doused with a bucket of ice water.

Chilled to the core.

Chu Jiaxue's eyes slowly turned cold.

My life is destined to be a tragedy, why should I drag others down with me?
Lin Chen is just a powerless, insignificant, and unconnected veteran. If I drag him into this mess, wouldn't that be harming him?
He saved my life today, so I can't repay kindness with enmity.

I will honestly fulfill my three-month contract with him, grant my grandfather's wish, and then give him the jade pendant and a sum of money. After that, we will forget each other and go our separate ways.

You live your own life!

You have to bear your own suffering!
Chu Jiaxue lowered her head and ate her noodles in large bites, but tears suddenly started to fall uncontrollably...
