The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 612: A Willing Buyer Steps Up
Chapter 612: Chapter 612: A Willing Buyer Steps Up
Originally, these matters could have been completely handled by Zheng Wansan’s subordinate.
He insisted on feeling the thrill of revenge, so he brought a team with him personally.
As a result, his attempt to show off failed, and he even got himself locked up.
Zheng Wansan had once offended the Zhang Family from Xianggang, and the authorities already wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly.
Now that this incident had occurred, the people the Zhang Family had asked for help acted immediately, establishing a provincial special task force to move into Binhai City to investigate.
Long Fei and Ding Xue had already lost interest in this matter, and after returning, they consoled Su Yiyi a bit and sent the girl off to school.
At the moment, there was still one person who had escaped.
From various indications, this person was very likely to be related to the theft cases at multiple banks.
The next day, news came from the second-hand vehicle market.
The stolen van had been found, and the police had retrieved the surveillance footage from that day, sending the photos to Ding Xue.
A young man, wearing sunglasses.
It was Wang Sen’s disciple, who was now lying in the morgue.
Ding Xue immediately reported to her superiors.
Wei Dongming took a long sigh of relief, handed the entire case to Ding Xue, and let her take charge of handling it.
He knew that with Long Fei’s help, Ding Xue was better off dealing with such supernatural cases.
These days, Wei Dongming didn’t know how much pressure he had endured.
All the major banks were on high alert every day, fearing that cash in their vaults would be stolen again.
The authorities had demanded a quick resolution to this case; otherwise, someone else would have to step in and take over.
Now that there was a clue, how could Wei Dongming not be excited.
In Lin Yingying’s office, Long Fei, with his legs crossed, was drinking tea and studying the recently collected terrain maps of Hell Sect’s valley on his phone.
This wasn’t just any satellite map; it was a professional satellite map accurate to within about a dozen centimeters.
How many people were below could be clearly seen.
Of course, it was the computer genius Li Wenwen who managed to acquire this.
Hacking a database was more than manageable for Li Wenwen’s team.
Lin Yingying stretched lazily as she came out. These last few days, she had been looking forward to some leisure time to focus on Qi Refinement!
But then the Zheng Family ran into trouble, and the government wanted Lin’s Group to form the Disk.
Lin Yingying was very cautious this time because the villagers there were notoriously difficult to deal with.
They were not just villagers but family members of the employees of the original Binhai City Textile Factory, with strong organizational skills.
Wuu Corporation, when it was still around, couldn’t take it over.
Zheng Corporation fared even worse, landing themselves locked up in the station in one fell swoop.
No other enterprise dared to take on the project, but the project couldn’t just be left there indefinitely.
Mayor Geng Liang personally called Lin Yingying, hoping she would seriously consider it.
Lin Yingying called Long Fei over precisely to investigate the situation on the ground.
If it was feasible, they’d proceed; if not, they wouldn’t bear the brunt of the blame.
After all, property development was always meant to turn a profit; it couldn’t be a loss-making endeavor.
She sat down opposite Long Fei and asked him, "What about Ding Xue? Are you really okay not being with her?"
Long Fei smiled faintly, "It’s fine, she’s just busy doing nothing all day. I’ve already promised to help her inquire in the Cultivation World, but she insists on looking herself!"
Lin Yingying curiously said, "What’s the background of that person?"
Long Fei shook his head, "Not clear yet, but looking at his techniques, he seems to be from the southern school of Talisman Script. And he’s adept at controlling ghosts, I reckon he’s not a descendant of any Famous Sects."
Lin Yingying sighed, "During these troubled times, they won’t even give us one day of rest."
Long Fei chuckled and asked her, "How do you feel? Any signs of breakthrough?"
Lin Yingying shook her head, "No, I’ve been gathering True Qi in my head just like you taught me. Every time, my head hurts so much it feels like it’s going to split, but I just can’t see that bright light."
After thinking for a moment, Long Fei said, "Everyone’s body constitution is different, so their sensations might also differ. You should just go with your own understanding; you don’t have to follow my method. Or perhaps, you’re just lacking a chance for a breakthrough."
Lin Yingying nodded, not forcing the issue.
She stood up and instructed, "Then let’s go!"
Long Fei extended his hand for her to give him a pull up.
Lin Yingying rolled her eyes at him, reaching out her small hand to grasp his larger one.
But the moment she pulled,
Long Fei didn’t get up; instead, he pulled her into his arms and planted a forceful kiss on her.
Lin Yingying kicked him, not wanting to mess around in the office where others might see them.
The two went downstairs and drove away in the Citroen training car.
In the urban village, Su Laicai had already called over the village head and other managers.
A crowd of villagers surrounded the door, all discussing the relocation eagerly.
They already knew that Zheng Corporation had officially withdrawn from the area.
Which meant their place was now without anyone in charge.
People from the government had said that Lin’s Group might take over from the city, and today, the president of Lin’s Group was coming down for an inspection. Everyone wanted to know what Lin’s Group intended to do.
Their resistance to relocation wasn’t out of attachment to this place but because the price had not been settled satisfactorily.
With a new house to live in and relocation compensation to receive, who would want to stay in such a worn-down area?
Soon after, a horn blared.
Long Fei drove over, and the crowd parted for him to enter the courtyard and call out Su Laicai and his group.
Once Long Fei and Lin Yingying exited the car, everyone’s gaze was captivated by Lin Yingying’s beauty.
All eyes were fixed on the female director, with people pinching themselves, wondering if they were seeing a famous star.
Su Laicai came forward and quickly shook hands with Long Fei, inviting Lin Yingying and Long Fei inside.
In the courtyard, people stood up to greet them.
After Long Fei and Lin Yingying were seated, Su Laicai immediately poured tea and boastfully exclaimed, "See? Didn’t I tell you my brother was the big boss of Lin’s Group, and you didn’t believe me!"
The others chuckled and extended their thumbs in admiration, marveling at how well Su Laicai had concealed such a powerful relative.
Long Fei was confused, thinking to himself that this guy’s habit of bluffing was incurable.
He introduced to the crowd, "Don’t misunderstand, this lady is the president of Lin’s Group, I’m just her bodyguard. She’s come down to gauge everyone’s views on the relocation. Say what you want, express all your demands."
"Bodyguard?"
"So he’s just a bodyguard!"
"What big boss?"
"Old Su’s blowing smoke again!"
The villagers laughed lightly, leaving Su Laicai in an awkward position, who immediately added, "Even being a bodyguard is awesome! Being the president’s bodyguard for a big company, is that a role just anyone can take on?"
With a laugh, the conversation with Lin Yingying turned serious, "We don’t have any special demands. Demolishing this place is simple, we just want the same compensation as Shangrongshu Village next door. Either provide housing or money. If it’s less than thirteen thousand, there’s no deal."
"Right, the price of rooms in the city is over ten thousand now. If it’s lower than that, we won’t be able to afford a house when we move out."
"Director Lin, you represent a major corporation, and you’ve shown kindness towards our Xiarongshu Village. You can’t cheat us like the last two companies did, pushing us around, can you?"
The crowd spoke up one after another while Lin Yingying calmly sipped her tea without a word.
Long Fei sighed. The world bustles along, everyone busy for their own profit.
No matter how much you help them, they still won’t give an inch when it comes to their interests.
