The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 616 - 0: Winning People’s Hearts
Chapter 616: Chapter 0616: Winning People’s Hearts
Long Fei seemed to have opened a window for the Black and White Fiends, suddenly shedding much light on their vision.
But still, the fog was dense, and the ideals seemed too grand.
Long Fei continued, "You may not yet know that on the summit of Mount Tai, a secret realm has just appeared, leading to another world. Legend has it that the big shots of the Cultivation World, with their Great Dharma Power, folded the Earth into two realms. Half for Cultivators and half for ordinary people. Now a rift has appeared, and the two worlds are beginning to communicate. If we grasp this opportunity well, we Cultivators will surely ascend to the heavens, escaping this deep well of Earth. If we can control the forces of the Hell Sect and then root ourselves in the Otherworld together, do you still think these aspirations are distant?"
"Is that so?"
The Black and White Fiends were stunned to the extreme.
These secret tales were shared by Long Fei so casually, treating them like his own people.
If becoming immortal was a castle in the air, then this secret realm was a ladder to the sky.
It was something tangible that they could see and touch!
So moved they were that they couldn’t find the words, feeling again like frogs at the bottom of a well, their admiration for Long Fei grew even stronger.
Without a second thought, they knelt again, cupped their fists, and said to Long Fei, "Master, if you do not doubt us, we are willing to head back to Los Angeles right now to pave the way. Within the Hell Sect, we know some assassins who are disloyal. If we can unite them, they could also serve as insiders for you tomorrow."
Long Fei raised his eyebrows, having not thought about such a possibility.
Trust those you employ, do not employ those you do not trust.
He nodded in agreement, "All right, that sounds good. However, you must be careful. After returning, make sure not to show your faces. If you are discovered, just flee, and we will discuss everything when we get there."
Both nodded at the same time, pleased that Long Fei could trust them.
Long Fei took out a porcelain bottle and gave them the antidote pills.
Within the cauldron, only one-third were Second-Grade Pills, roughly about ten.
Their poison could only be cured by Second-Grade Pills.
Long Fei said, "You may give these pills to others, first helping them rid the poison in their bodies, so they too will trust you more."
Their hands trembled as they took it; the bottle was full of Second-Grade Pills!
They hadn’t expected Long Fei to be so generous with them.
Even just giving out one pill would fetch an exorbitant price.
But that wasn’t all; there was even more magnanimity to come.
Long Fei told them to wait a moment and fetched two sets of clothes for them, instructing them to bathe and change in the rest room first.
He then went outside to consecrate a new batch of Qi Replenishing Pills, fewer this time, all prepared in half an hour.
Twenty in total, but not Second-Grade, only First Grade.
These pills were for caring for their bodies.
When the two emerged, they took the items, trembling, and then burst into tears.
Fuck, utterly shocked, they could not hold back!
This new master was incredibly generous in his giving.
"A soldier dies for his confidants; even if it means dying for him, it would still be worth it."
As night fell, Lin Yingying finally finished her tasks, and, smelling the fragrance of the medicine from outside, she came out.
The Black and White Fiends had already left; only Long Fei sat outside alone.
Through the soundproof glass, Lin Yingying could faintly hear someone talking outside, but she didn’t catch what was being said.
After sitting down, she saw three cups of tea on the table and frowned, "Had guests come over?" fгeewebnovёl.com
"Yes!"
Long Fei nodded.
Lin Yingying raised her eyebrows, "And you didn’t call me?"
Long Fei smiled, "My guests, why would I need to call you?"
"What’s yours is mine in the company," Lin Yingying retorted, glancing at him before picking up a teacup and gulping down the tea.
By this time, the clerks outside had already finished their shifts.
Lin Yingying looked at the lights coming on in the street outside, and said in a low voice, "It feels like I haven’t shopped in a while; how about you accompany me for a walk on the street?"
"Now?"
Long Fei raised an eyebrow.
"Yeah, now."
Lin Yingying stood up, full of interest, "Let’s do what normal people do: stroll around, watch a movie, have some late-night snacks. How does that sound?"
"Whatever you want!"
Long Fei smiled, looking at her pitiable state, as if she wasn’t living a normal life at the moment.
Indeed, her life was pretty boring.
Every day it was sleep, work, running between home and the company.
Those office workers outside, even if they earned less, led a more relaxed life!
The moment work ended, without a second thought, they’d run out the door.
Change clothes, call friends, and then they’d either be in a bar or a restaurant, or a cinema having a blast!
The two of them went downstairs and didn’t drive.
Lin Yingying insisted on renting a little yellow bike and made Long Fei pedal with her on the back.
The street was lined with tree shadows and bright lights.
Passersby were coming and going constantly; it was very lively even late at night.
Lin Yingying sat behind him, legs crossed, arms wrapped around Long Fei’s waist, suddenly asking, "Did Wang Xiaoya used to hug you like this in the past?"
Long Fei chuckled dryly, wondering why she was asking this.
Lin Yingying inquired, "Don’t you miss her now?"
She placed her hand on Long Fei’s chest, wanting to hear his true feelings.
Long Fei’s heart skipped a beat or two, realizing his secret was out; he admitted frankly, "A little bit."
He thought Lin Yingying would be angry, but instead she laughed and said, "Not bad, you didn’t lie."
She went silent for a moment, then asked, "Didn’t you ever think of sending me to Dragon Group at that time? Keeping Wang Xiaoya with you, staying by her side, instead of me?"
Long Fei’s heart raced again, as if Lin Yingying had pierced a secret he didn’t want to face.
Unintentionally, he had made his choice, but he had always been reluctant to admit it.
Lin Yingying said proudly, "Lost for words? I’ll say it for you. Whether you acknowledge it or not, you like me more than Wang Xiaoya now."
Long Fei stopped pedaling, squeezed the brake, and stopped in front of a little ice cream shop to buy two cones.
He ate one and stuffed the other into Lin Yingying’s mouth, grumbling at her, "Fine, I am hopeless. I like you more. So what? Why bring it up?"
Lin Yingying lifted her nose, shot him a mischievous smile, and suddenly pressed her lips against his.
The taste of strawberry ice cream sweetened Long Fei’s heart immediately.
The shop clerks in the hut gawked, thinking to themselves that they weren’t being considerate to single folks, challenging their fragile hearts with such public displays of affection!
One of them couldn’t take it anymore and shouted, "Hey, have you kissed enough? You haven’t paid for your ice cream yet!"
Long Fei and Lin Yingying blushed and quickly separated.
He pulled out a hundred from his pocket and gave it to the server, leaving without waiting for the change, taking Lin Yingying away with him.
The ten-dollar ice cream cones; the rest of the ninety was considered mental compensation.
Lin Yingying laughed gleefully from behind.
Long Fei chided, "You’re not paying any attention to your image now. Why kiss in front of others?"
Lin Yingying pouted, "So what? I’m kissing my own man. Who am I bothering? They’re just jealous."
Long Fei shook his head with a laugh, speechless against her.
He indulged Lin Yingying’s desires for the evening: a leisurely stroll, a movie at a random place, a fast-food meal, and it wasn’t until after midnight that they went to the company to pick up the car and head home.
A very ordinary night, and yet Lin Yingying was delighted the entire way, even making Long Fei promise to do this every day after work.
Long Fei smiled to himself, thinking that a big CEO was satisfied with so little.
It seems in novels, the narrative where an underdog invites a rich beauty to skewers and a walk, maybe a movie, and wins over a CEO’s heart is indeed true.
