Female Star's Personal Bodyguard

Li Chenyuan had left, without uttering a single word, abandoning all the distinguished guests in the hall. Today, he had lost too much face!

The aged butler silently followed the Crown Prince, accompanying him as he left. Though always discreet, wherever this butler went, he inevitably became the center of attention.

After several prominent figures had taken their leave, the banquet hall erupted into chaos, everyone expressing their astonishment.

"This young master is extraordinary. Our circle is likely to see a true dragon ascend to the heavens!" Li Yingjie said to Liu Yingxiong.

"We all know that butler is no ordinary man," Liu Yingxiong replied solemnly, his expression unusually serious. "But I hadn't expected that this young friend Ye Chen would be even more remarkable!"

Li Yingjie nodded in agreement, knowing full well the credentials of that butler—who was a supreme expert at the peak of martial arts mastery!

While Li Yingjie was a martial arts master himself, he had only recently entered that realm, whereas the old butler was at the peak, just one step away from entering the Grandmaster Realm!

Yet such a powerful figure showed Ye Chen such respect. Could it be that Ye Chen had reached the Grandmaster Realm?

"Sister, with such an outstanding man, can you really afford to let him go, without worrying that someone else might snatch him away?" Liu Shihua said with a hint of concern for Zhang Xinlan, recalling Ye Chen's awe-inspiring presence.

"Who would want to snatch him?" Zhang Xinlan replied dismissively. "He's just a bumpkin!"

Liu Shihua: "..."

The venue was still in an uproar, everyone discussing the mysterious man who had made a fleeting appearance, speculating about his origins!

"It seems I've underestimated you!"

Chu Yanran sat in her Dream Level Rolls-Royce, which today received its first passenger other than herself—Ye Chen.

"You've underestimated a lot. I am brilliance personified!" bragged Ye Chen, clearly unfamiliar with the concept of modesty.

Chu Yanran: "..."

Ye Chen's astonishing way with words rendered the usually unflappable business empress speechless, plunging the interior of the car into silence.

This Dream Level Rolls-Royce, valued at over ten million, was a limited edition, with only ten units released worldwide, and Chu Yanran's was the only one in all of Huaxia!

With the luxury car valued in the millions, its craftsmanship was exquisitely precise, and the soundproofing was exceptional, rendering the cabin so quiet that even the empress herself felt slightly oppressed.

Chu Yanran became suddenly curious about the man beside her, and set aside her miscellaneous emotions. Her beautiful eyes focused intently on Ye Chen, trying to understand this royal-level figure.

Ye Chen was curiously inspecting the Dream Level vehicle, his eyes shining with a glimmer of desire.

"Do you want it?" Chu Yanran asked.

"Mm, consider it part of my compensation for this time!" Ye Chen nodded.

"..."

Chu Yanran thought she was quite educated, but regretted not reading a few more books, as she couldn't find words to describe Ye Chen in her vocabulary.

Even labeling Ye Chen as shameless, Chu Yanran believed he would tarnish even those words!

The customisation fee alone for this Rolls-Royce reached millions, and its symbolic significance was priceless. Yet, Ye Chen audaciously suggested he should take her beloved car as a reward with just a simple statement.

"You can't part with it?" Ye Chen, noticing Chu Yanran's darkening mood, started to realize perhaps he had been too cavalier with his request. "I was just joking. Consider this my way of stepping in when I see injustice."

"No need," Chu Yanran replied, massaging her brow. "I can't give you this car, as my possessions are not for just anyone. I will find a way to custom order an identical one for you!"

"Alright then, I'll thank you for that," Ye Chen said somewhat sheepishly.

"Didn't you just say you'd write this off as stepping in to uphold justice?" Chu Yanran decided to expose Ye Chen's dubious character. "Why would you thank me, and why accept my gift?"

Seeing Chu Yanran's slightly agitated expression, Ye Chen giggled sheepishly, finding it quite difficult to remain composed in front of a beautiful woman.

"Because your generosity is overwhelming," Ye Chen sighed. "I cannot refuse it. I can only accept it silently!"

"Ha!" Chu Yanran wanted to laugh, but found it impossible to do so in the face of such shamelessness.

Ye Chen dropped the act and stared straight at Chu Yanran, his candid gaze unapologetically admiring. He loved looking at beautiful women, especially those like Chu Yanran who were not only stunning but also possessed a unique quality.

Perfect!

Ye Chen admired in his heart, Chu Yanran's beauty was indescribable—it wasn't only because she was the epitome of beauty, but also because she had an ineffable quality about her, like a proud and majestic phoenix!

Every man is capable of love, and Ye Chen was no exception.

Ye Chen didn't suppress these feelings because when he entered the mortal world, he was here to experience these earthly matters.

Moreover, the giant he had agreed to duel in three years had a life-and-death battle at the summit, which led Ye Chen to take a much more relaxed view on everything.

Ye Chen always felt that in the face of the world's enchanting beauties, one should harbor a love for all! Ye Chen would only actively pursue one woman, and would marry her in a proper ceremony. However, if numerous beauties were crying and begging to be his concubines, he could only reluctantly agree...

Chu Yanran noticed Ye Chen's unabashed gaze, making her a bit self-conscious. She was always the phoenix among people, and how could ordinary folk dare to look her directly in the eyes. This stirred feelings of annoyance and embarrassment in her heart.

But she was the Empress of the business world after all, and Chu Yanran soon adapted to Ye Chen's gaze, meeting his eyes with grace and propriety.

Despite knowing that Ye Chen was a king-level figure in the military, and understanding what that level meant, she still found him surrounded by mystery.

How could someone so young achieve such supreme honor?

"Are you...?" Ye Chen wanted to say, "Do you like me?"

After being looked at intensely by Chu Yanran's gaze for a while, he began to feel embarrassed. In the face of a beautiful woman, he always found himself quite shy.

"Are you?" Chu Yanran was puzzled. "What?"

Ye Chen: "..."

"You're so young, hold such a noble position in the military, and possess magical medical skills, I really wonder what you grew up eating," Chu Yanran sighed.

"I ate steamed buns," Ye Chen glanced at Chu Yanran and said.

"You!" Chu Yanran was utterly embarrassed.

One was a vigorous young man, and the other was a woman who had not been cherished for many years, like a fierce flame meeting dry wood, they could easily spark fireworks.

"Do you fancy me?" Ye Chen said, somewhat narcissistically. Even if she was the Empress of the business world, he wasn't intimidated. "Actually, I'm not someone who's easily swayed."

"I know!" Chu Yanran nodded and then scoffed playfully: "When you do decide to care about something, you're practically not human!"

Ye Chen: "..."

"Ha ha!"

Laughter erupted in the car from a third person—Li Weiguo, who had been playing the role of a well-behaved driver. He had been watching the two titans spar but hadn't expected the Empress to deliver such a divine retort, making him burst out laughing.

"Shut up!" Ye Chen scowled.

Watching Ye Chen with a dark expression and a chest full of frustration, Chu Yanran felt an immense sense of satisfaction within. It turned out that teasing a bad person could make one's mood so much better!

Yanran, the Empress, arrived at Longcheng National Hospital with her dream-level motorcade. This hospital had medical measures ranked in the top five throughout Huaxia and was one of the highest executive directors!

Chu Yanran, as the largest shareholder of the National Hospital, found her family's old lady critically ill. The hospital had sent out a top-notch expert team, but regarding the old lady's illness, these authoritative experts were all helpless, even nearly causing her condition to worsen to the point of death!

The expert team consisted of nine people, all over fifty and authorities in their respective fields. However, if Hua Tuo himself couldn't reverse the old lady's condition, what could these ordinary people do?

Nevertheless, Chu Yanran seemed to have realized the unreliability of these authorities and she decisively ordered them to do everything to preserve the old lady's last breath. The handling of her illness would naturally fall to someone more qualified!

Chu Yanran's command relieved the nine experts—they couldn't cure the old lady, but they could keep her stable.

However, the experts, who were fully engaged in saving the old lady's life, suddenly received news that the Empress had brought in the Divine Doctor who could cure the old lady's illness!

Upon hearing the news, all nine authorities became serious. They waited at the hospital entrance to welcome the Empress and her party before they arrived.

"Chu, where is this Divine Doctor?" One authority asked Chu Yanran upon meeting her, not having seen the Divine Doctor yet.

"Yes!" Another expert spoke up, full of admiration. "Anyone who can resolve the old lady's illness must be on par with Hua Tuo. Chu, please bring the Divine Doctor out so that we may all pay our respects!"

"..."

The Empress had arrived, but the Divine Doctor had yet to appear, causing murmurs among the authorities.
