Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 469 - Golden Tycoon (34)
Chapter 469: Chapter 469 Golden Tycoon (34)
On the cruise ship.
Chuzheng, pushing Jin Ning, headed back to their room first. Halfway there, a waiter walked past, and as he did, slipped her a note.
Chuzheng settled Jin Ning in.
She left the room and went up to the very top deck of the cruise ship.
In the room, the Boss sat on a leather sofa, wearing only a shirt, appearing very amiable, without a trace of malice.
“What do you want?”
The Boss chuckled, “I just saw your little boyfriend.”
“And?”
“He’s quite a talent,” praised the Boss, pausing, “It’s just a pity, he’s disabled in both legs.”
“Do you remember what you promised me?”
“Hahaha, Qing Gang’s work isn’t bad, I really underestimated you before.”
“Thank you for the compliment.”
“…”
The Boss gestured for Chuzheng to sit, “I didn’t call you here for anything else today, I just wanted to ask if you’d be interested in taking over my position.”
“I’m not interested.”
Chuzheng rejected the offer decisively.
She might enjoy her line of work, but that didn’t mean she coveted his position.
The Boss raised an eyebrow slightly, “Are you sure you don’t want to?”
“Too much hassle.”
“…” Countless people coveted his position, and now, when he asked her to take over, she was saying it was a hassle?
It made his position seem cheap.
Because Chuzheng was so decisive in her rejection, the Boss dropped the subject and changed the topic, “Aren’t you afraid he’ll be in danger by exposing him?”
“No,” Chuzheng replied, calm yet resolute, “I can protect him.”
“Chuzheng,” said the Boss earnestly, “you must understand that accidents can happen at any time.”
“Oh.” That might be true for you, but it’s different for me. I still have a chance; what’s there to be afraid of?
“…”
Chuzheng’s casual and carefree attitude made the Boss choke a moment.
The Boss, unable to continue the conversation with Chuzheng, waved her off.
Ah Hua was waiting at the door, “Sis Chuzheng, did the Boss give you a hard time?”
Chuzheng shook her head, “How come you guys are on the ship?”
“We’ve been here all along,” hinted Ah Hua, “Sis Chuzheng, there’s a deal going on. You should get off at the next stop.”
“Ah Hua.”
The Boss called out to him.
Ah Hua immediately stepped back, “Sis Chuzheng, I need to go in first.”
–
On her way down, Chuzheng bumped into someone.
Dressed in the attire of a cruise ship waiter, head bowed, they looked flustered and anxious.
They bumped into her and ran off hurriedly without an apology.
Someone was chasing them from behind.
Seeing Chuzheng, one of them stopped, “Sis Chuzheng.”
“What’s up?” Chuzheng inquired.
“An unruly one ran away. We’ve been looking for them,” the person replied.
Chuzheng nodded her head, and the person continued the pursuit with the others.
Chuzheng casually made her way back. As she turned a corner, the waiter from before suddenly popped out, blocking her way.
“Chuzheng.”
The waiter lifted their head.
A familiar face was revealed.
Lin Yan.
She was still alive?
“Chuzheng, please save me, for the sake of the time we depended on each other in the orphanage, save me,” Lin Yan pleaded, grabbing her.
Chuzheng pried off her hand, her voice as cold as if it had been encased in ice, “We’re not close.”
“Chuzheng, I’m going to die,” Lin Yan’s eyes filled with fear, suggesting she had been through something terrible, “You have to save me, can’t you do it for the sake of all these years, please save me.”
Chuzheng calmly took out her phone.
Lin Yan’s eyes flashed with hope.
“Chuzheng, I know I was wrong before, but I was good to you too, right? Only you can save me now.”
“If you agree to save me, I will repay you, however, I can, please.”
Chuzheng, without saying a word, pressed on her phone.
Five minutes later.
The group that had been pursuing Lin Yan returned, panic flooding her eyes instantly.
She turned to run, but Chuzheng tripped her.
Lin Yan fell to the ground with a thud, turning her head to see Chuzheng, her eyes filled with spite.
Chuzheng coldly kicked the person, knocking them out.
“…” Sis Chuzheng is so ruthless!
Chuzheng looked towards the approaching group.
“I hope this is the last time.”
The person froze for a moment, then became somewhat flustered and lowered their head, not daring to look at Chuzheng.
Chuzheng glanced in the direction of the surveillance, then nonchalantly slipped her hands back into her pockets and walked away.
–
On the top floor.
The Boss closed the surveillance feed and exhaled a cloud of smoke.
“Ah Hua.”
“Boss,” Ah Hua stood at attention to one side.
“Dispose of Lin Yan,” the Boss mused, “and learn more from Chuzheng.”
“…Yes.” What did the Boss mean by that?
Keeping Lin Yan around, was it just to test Chuzheng?
But judging by Chuzheng’s reaction… it seemed like she was angry.
Why did the Boss seem rather pleased?
Suddenly, Ah Hua found he couldn’t quite understand the thought processes of the big shots.
–
Halfway through the trip, Chuzheng got off the yacht, which Jin Ning found strange, considering that wasn’t the plan when they set off.
But Chuzheng did as she pleased, and he didn’t ask any questions, just obediently followed her.
It wasn’t until Jin Chen’s vacation was over that Chuzheng brought Jin Ning back with her.
What followed was an endless journey of treatments.
For a time, Jin Ning felt Chuzheng’s gaze on his leg was chillingly sharp, as though she wasn’t looking at it wishing it would get better but as if she wanted to chop it off.
He wondered if it was just his imagination…
Not long after, Chuzheng brought several veteran traditional Chinese doctors.
The traditional doctors wanted to start massage therapy.
Chuzheng, with a cold expression, stopped them and spent half a month learning from them.
There was also acupuncture, which she learned as well.
Jin Ning noticed that she especially disliked other people touching him.
Regardless of whether they were men, women, old, or young.
Even if a baby touched him, she was not pleased.
“Baby, is your possessiveness over me a bit too strong?”
“It should be,” Chuzheng said with pride.
Unconcealed.
Unapologetic.
It should be.
That was very much her style.
“…” Jin Ning fell silent for a moment and then let her be.
–
Three years later.
“Baby, have you seen my… baby?”
Jin Ning frowned. Had she gone again?
Couldn’t she at least say something to him?
As Jin Ning was wondering this, he suddenly heard noises from the bathroom and immediately wheeled himself over.
The bathroom door was not closed properly; Jin Ning pushed it open and saw Chuzheng leaning against the sink, applying medicine to her arm.
Jin Ning instinctively stood up: “Baby, you’re hurt.”
“It’s nothing, just a scratch,” Chuzheng said in an even tone, stopping abruptly, “You…”
Jin Ning held her wrist, “How did you scratch it? Did you…”
Go on a mission?
As he looked up, his eyes met Chuzheng’s cool gaze.
She looked intently at him.
Just as Jin Ning was about to ask what was wrong, his legs suddenly hurt, and his body fell backward.
Chuzheng caught him and pulled him into her embrace, kissing him, “Things are progressing well, the day is not far off.”
Jin Ning: “??”
Something about that idiom seemed a bit off.
Wait.
He stood up?!
“Baby, I…”
Jin Ning was carried out by Chuzheng, who kicked away the wheelchair and brought him to the sofa.
She squatted down, rolled up his pants, and touched his legs.
“Do you feel anything?”
“…It seems like I do,” Jin Ning murmured, “and yet it feels like I don’t.”
Chuzheng pressed harder.
This time, Jin Ning felt it clearly.
“Baby…” his voice trembled slightly.
Chuzheng stood up, leaned over to press him down on the couch, and kissed him passionately.
“Baby, your wound.”
“It’s nothing,” Chuzheng slid her hand under his shirt, “It won’t stop me from kissing you.”
