Female Star's Personal Bodyguard

Zhang Xinlan's face sank. "You don't even know if I have a boyfriend or not, but you dared to pursue me. Everything I said just now was like talking to a pig. Talk about insight!"

Ye Chen caught the changing expressions on Zhang Xinlan's face, and he couldn't help but feel anxious. Had he really arrived too late?

"I don't have a boyfriend!" Zhang Xinlan's words delighted Ye Chen, but then she turned the tables, "However, I have a lot of potential boyfriends. There are plenty of people chasing after me. Finding a boyfriend would be a matter of minutes!"

Zhang Xinlan looked proudly at Ye Chen, not sure why but suddenly she wanted to tease him a bit for fun.

As expected, upon hearing this, Ye Chen's expression turned very ugly.

Seeing Ye Chen's stricken look, Zhang Xinlan instantly felt a pang of remorse, but then she felt there was no need to explain. He wasn't anyone to her after all, so she might as well let him feel sad and upset.

"Be my girlfriend!" Ye Chen was silent for a while, summoning a great deal of courage before he said the words.

Zhang Xinlan was extremely charming and a rare beauty. Such a stunner was not someone ordinary men could hope to touch, but Ye Chen wanted to possess a woman like her. Achieving that would truly give him a sense of accomplishment!

"Can you give me some time to breathe?" Zhang Xinlan said helplessly. She didn't know what to say anymore. This guy's emotional intelligence was simply zero.

If it were any old-hand with a high EQ, they would have easily understood Zhang Xinlan's attitude by her demeanor, knowing that they had already won her favor.

"What do you mean?" Ye Chen was still somewhat confused.

Ye Chen's determination was unshakeable. He believed that to win a woman's heart, one must pursue aggressively and relentlessly until she is completely captivated.

It must be said that Ye Chen's emotional intelligence was obviously still at a rookie level.

Zhang Xinlan hadn't rejected Ye Chen's bold and cheesy confession, which meant there was room for negotiation, or it could even be said that she had agreed, it just needed time to transition. But Ye Chen just couldn't grasp this.

"Alright, get lost now!" Zhang Xinlan was so frustrated that she started shooing him away.

"Got it." Ye Chen felt a setback in his affections, his mood low.

A slight curve appeared on Zhang Xinlan's lips. Ye Chen didn't seem too dumb, so why was his emotional intelligence so lacking? Anyway, let him feel heartbroken. She couldn't be hasty with something as important as her lifelong happiness.

"Ah, what are you doing..."

Zhang Xinlan suddenly cried out because Ye Chen had leaned in and brushed a kiss across her lips.

"Sorry, I couldn't resist!" Ye Chen chuckled with a hey.

Ye Chen, the sole king of the Huabei Military Region, would be undeniably the first in terms of personal combat strength among the four major military regions!

Because of Ye Chen's youthful vigor and profound skills, he was at the peak of his life. Even those older renowned kings wouldn't dare say for certain they could surpass Ye Chen.

So, it wasn't just that Zhang Xinlan was unprepared - even if she had been on guard, she couldn't have avoided this moment.

"Hmph!" Zhang Xinlan snorted coldly, looking at Ye Chen. "How does it feel?"

Ye Chen seemed to be losing his footing.

Zhang Xinlan hadn't exploded into a rage; instead, she looked relaxed. What was she trying to do?

"You must have a lot of guts, doing this right after coming back from your hometown," Zhang Xinlan wiped off her mouth and said indifferently to Ye Chen.

"I was wrong." Ye Chen bowed his noble head.

"You realize what you did wrong?" Zhang Xinlan mocked.

"Yes." Ye Chen became obedient, quiet, and stopped causing trouble.

"Let me tell you, behave yourself in the future, be at my call at any time, and listen to me in all things!" Zhang Xinlan commanded imperiously.

"At your command!" Ye Chen was like a lamb to the slaughter.

"That's enough, you can leave now!" Zhang Xinlan waved him away.

Ye Chen felt relieved and started to make a quick exit.

"Wait!" Zhang Xinlan suddenly called out, looking dissatisfied at Ye Chen, "What's the rush? Have your cake and eat it too, and now you're trying not to own up?"

Ye Chen didn't dare to make a sound. At this point, he still couldn't read the situation or Zhang Xinlan's attitude, but he thought it wise to steer clear for the moment.

"You're not to tell anyone about today's events, or else you're dead!" Zhang Xinlan issued her final order.

"Understood!" Ye Chen replied.

"Hurry up and get lost, don't let me see you." After speaking, Zhang Xinlan started to chase Ye Chen away again.

Following Zhang Xinlan's command, Ye Chen's figure vanished in an instant, ghost-like, and with a loud "bang," he slammed the room door shut, betraying his hasty and panicky departure. The bold everyman who dared to counter the goddess had scurried away like smoke.

"Ha ha, what a big dummy!"

Zhang Xinlan saw Ye Chen's flustered departure and let out a giggle, feeling oddly good in this moment.

She took a deep breath, pressed her little hands fiercely on her cheeks, and Zhang Xinlan thought her cheeks were frighteningly hot.

"How dare he take advantage of this beauty - I'll just play it unconventional and scare the life out of him, ha ha!"

Zhang Xinlan thought of how her deliberately portrayed demeanor had scared Ye Chen silly and she couldn't help but laugh smugly.

"My cheeks are so hot, I'm not running a fever, am I? Why is my heartbeat still racing so fast? Could this be what falling in love feels like?"

...

Ye Chen, the top king of the Huabei Military Region, fled nervously but excitedly after stealing a kiss from Zhang Xinlan.

"Winning the goddess's heart isn't a dream. From now on, it's promotion and a raise, becoming a general manager, and reaching the peak of life!"

"Five words drifted down from the sky, that's nothing much!"

Ye Chen had already started to fantasize about a happy life ahead. Zhang Xinlan was undoubtedly a top strong woman, immensely wealthy. If he could marry her and live comfortably off her, it would be absolutely perfect.

Years of bloodshed had worn Ye Chen down, and he no longer wanted to be part of any conflict. All he desired was a warm bed with his wife and kids, and he would have no regrets in this life.
