Chen Hao had landed a new job.
He donned a fresh security uniform once again, and this time, he was equipped with two new tools: a riot baton and a riot shield.
The word "security guard" seemed to have been etched into his DNA, becoming an inseparable part of his life.
Security guard, security guard—protecting the peace of one's surroundings.
It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say... on days when he wasn’t working as a security guard... Chen Hao felt completely out of sorts.
Now, however, he felt much more at ease. Watching the newly established company bustling with people coming and going, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled upward.
If he put Qin Qiaoqiao out of his mind, he was actually quite content. But the thought of Qin Qiaoqiao lying in that scoundrel Jiang Che’s arms every day instantly soured his mood.
"Hmph, Jiang Che, just you wait. I’ve finally figured out why my cultivation has been stagnant. Soon, I’ll break through to the Transform Force level, and then, even if you’re the son of the richest man... I’ll still be able to take you out without a trace!"
A fierce glint flashed in Chen Hao’s eyes.
Just then, a group of company executives began filing into the building.
"President Gu is truly remarkable. She just relocated the company headquarters to Dragon Country, and the company’s market value has already risen by several percentage points."
"Of course! The market is constantly changing, and our President Gu has a sharp business mind."
"Alright, alright, let’s not try to compare our simple minds to President Gu’s, okay? She single-handedly took the company public within five years, and on top of that, she’s a stunning beauty—a true example of a woman surpassing men in every way."
"I wonder who will be lucky enough to marry such a powerful woman. Tsk, tsk, tsk."
Chen Hao watched their retreating figures and swallowed hard.
Out of everything they had said, he only picked up on two key phrases.
Stunning beauty. Female president!
In an instant, Chen Hao was filled with excitement. It was true... he was born to be a security guard.
Working as a security guard at a school, he could encounter a charming campus beauty. Working as a security guard at a company, he could meet a cold and aloof female president.
Overcome with excitement, he took a deep breath and clenched his fists. He was determined to make this ice-cold female president his!
......
Meanwhile, far across the ocean.
"Ugh, how annoying. Why isn’t A Che answering his phone?"
"Never mind. I’ll surprise him when I get back. I wonder if he’s grown up... What should I bring him as a gift?"
A tall, stunning woman lightly bit her thin lips. Her chestnut-colored waves cascaded down her back, and she wore a white blouse under a black women’s suit jacket, paired with a pair of semi-rimmed silver glasses. Her beauty was a perfect blend of sensuality and intellect.
"Should I bring him a Transformer? Oh, I almost forgot... it’s been seven or eight years since we last saw each other. A Che isn’t that little kid anymore."
Gu Lingfei chuckled to herself. "Let’s see, he should be nineteen now, right? Should I buy him a sports car? But Uncle Jiang isn’t short on money... Maybe I’ll get him a limited edition one..."
That’s it! The woman snapped her fingers!
After tidying up at the company, Gu Lingfei prepared to leave.
Just as she stepped out of the company’s main entrance, a young man hurriedly approached her.
"Feifei, Feifei, are you really going back to Dragon Country?"
The moment the young man appeared, Gu Lingfei’s bodyguards immediately surrounded him, drawing their guns!
Su Han: "......"
As a beautiful woman running a company in the United States, it was only natural that Gu Lingfei would have a dozen bodyguards by her side.
"Feifei, are you really going back to Dragon Country? Then I’ll go with you!"
Gu Lingfei frowned, her beautiful eyes narrowing. "Su Han! Can you stop pestering me?"
If it weren’t for the fact that this man had once saved her life, she would have had him thrown out long ago.
"Su Han, isn’t 200 million enough to repay your life-saving favor?"
Su Han panicked slightly. "Feifei, that 200 million was a loan. I’ll definitely pay it back. Feifei, you know how much I truly like you..."
"You don’t have to pay it back. Just get lost!"
Gu Lingfei’s bodyguards stepped forward, their guns cocked and ready.
Su Han fell silent. Though he was skilled in combat, what good was that?
Outside seven steps, the gun was faster. Inside seven steps, the gun was both faster and more accurate.
All he could do was watch helplessly as Gu Lingfei walked away, his eyes filled with infatuation.
From the moment he first laid eyes on this woman... he had been madly in love with her.
"Feifei... wait for me. Even if you go to Dragon Country, I’ll still protect you from the shadows. I’ll prove my feelings to you through my actions."
With that thought, he dialed a number.
"Hello? Wolf King... it’s Monkey. Do we have a new mission?"
"No, I just want to announce something. I’m leaving the Wolf King Mercenary Group."
"What???" Monkey was shocked. "Wolf King, are you joking? Our Wolf Fang Mercenary Group is thriving right now. You’re the Wolf King—the soul of our group. Why would you leave?"
Su Han sighed deeply. "I’m tired of this life of constant fighting and killing. I’m going back to Dragon Country. Besides... I still have to uncover the truth behind the massacre of my entire family!"
Monkey: "......"
Su Han continued, "Alright, we’ll talk more when I get back."
After hanging up, Su Han looked out toward the distant horizon.
Following Gu Lingfei back was only one reason. He hadn’t forgotten... the blood debt he still carried on his shoulders!
......
Jiang Che had no idea that Gu Lingfei had called him several times.
Seeing that the calls from Gu Lingfei were international, he assumed they were scam calls and promptly hung up.
The way girls build rapport with each other is quite simple—they just chat and become best friends.
Although Qin Qiaoqiao and Ye Mengyao still didn’t see eye to eye, their relationship had improved compared to before.
The three of them were sitting in the living room having breakfast when the sound of the door unlocking came from outside.
"Creak—"
"Little Che, these past few days..."
Jiang Yunli walked in with a smile, but when she saw the scene in the living room, she froze.
She rubbed her eyes.
Was she seeing things? It looked like her son was having breakfast with two girls?
She must be mistaken. Let’s try that again!
Jiang Yunli closed the door and reopened it.
Now she was completely stunned.
"Little Che... what... what’s going on here?"
Jiang Yunli scrutinized the two girls. She had thought... that after she and Jiang Yuan left home, they were giving their son and Yu Wan’er a cozy little love nest.
But instead of Yu Wan’er, there were two other girls?
And one of them was... Ye Mengyao? The young lady of the Ye family?
Jiang Yunli felt like her brain was about to short-circuit.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
