The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

Wang Qian understood Luo Shiqi even better now. This woman was the queen of Yanjing's Underworld and controlled the Luo Family, a behemoth conglomerate worth hundreds of billions. Currently, she posed a far greater danger than Su Qingyu. Moreover, most crucially, Su Qingyu was a legitimate businesswoman who only engaged in commercial affairs without any intent to harm others. But Luo Shiqi was different; she was like a venomous snake, ruthless and decisive in her actions.

"Miss, Second Young Master, there have been many rumors about this man and Luo Shiqi," said the bodyguard respectfully. "The first time was at an auction held by the Ji Family. Luo Shiqi publicly gifted him a pendant worth over a hundred million that she had bid for."

"Additionally, Luo Shiqi has been seen entering and exiting entertainment venues with him multiple times, such as bars and underground boxing rings."

"Oh, now that you mention it, I seem to remember something," Wang Hai exclaimed after listening, "I was at that auction too."

"And this person..." the bodyguard suddenly paused, leaned in close to Wang Hai's ear, and whispered, "Second Young Master, at Tianshan Club last time, it was him you lost to."

"What?" Wang Hai roared in rage, "This guy stole my thunder and even dared to snatch the woman I set my sights on." Wang Hai's eyes filled with fury and hatred. He was indeed running into enemies in a narrow path—Ye Shikai's face slowly emerged in his mind. He didn't remember Ye Shikai from the auction, but at Tianshan Club, Ye Shikai almost made him crash into a mountain, and he had his bodyguard injured too—this he remembered very clearly.

Wang Qian leaned on the sofa, massaging her temples. She didn't care about the necklace worth hundreds of millions; what concerned her was that a man warranted Luo Shiqi's attention so greatly. Wang Qian's expression became more serious. What kind of man was Ye Shikai, to make the queen of Yanjing's Underworld submit to him so meekly?

"Ye Shikai is so close to Luo Shiqi, then why would he marry Su Qingyu?" Wang Qian suddenly asked, and the bodyguard looked embarrassed. Indeed, it was a puzzling question.

"Moreover, Ye Shikai is currently working at Tianya Group as a minor employee in the Public Relations department. Other than that, he has no other identity in Yanjing."

"What, a minor employee, you must be joking." Before Wang Qian could express her surprise, Wang Hai already jumped up incredulously.

"A minor employee." Wang Qian sneered coldly, "A minor employee has the gall to keep company with Luo Shiqi."

"I'm sorry, Miss, I'll continue the investigation regarding this matter."

"Alright, you may leave," Wang Hai waved his hand impatiently.

"Yes." After the bodyguard left, only Wang Hai and Wang Qian remained in the living room.

"Sis, Ye Shikai must be feigning the pig to eat the tiger; otherwise, why would Luo Shiqi be so good to him?" Wang Hai, sitting opposite Wang Qian, spoke loudly.

"I think so too. Our priority now is to immediately ascertain his true identity," Wang Qian thought more deeply. Naturally, her main purpose was not to assist her spoiled rich kid brother with matchmaking. If she could help Wang Hai marry Su Qingyu, that would be the best outcome. But if that didn't work out, Wang Qian wouldn't soften her approach. She had returned from Europe with one aim—to dominate Yanjing's business world. This was an immensely ambitious woman with astonishingly bold targets.

Wang Qian huffed twice—Su Qingyu had better be sensible, for those who follow me shall prosper, and those against me shall perish.

"Sis, are you... capable of dealing with Luo Shiqi?" Wang Hai spoke cautiously as he walked up to her. Wang Qian suddenly turned her head and glared at him fiercely, causing Wang Hai to step back in fear.

"You don't believe in me, or do you think you can handle her?" Wang Qian said coldly.

"No, no, sis, what I mean is... Luo Shiqi has ties to the Underworld, she might be... somewhat rough when handling things," Wang Hai struggled to find the right words, eventually choosing "rough" as his description, but Wang Qian of course understood his meaning.

"Hmph, such tactics are not just in her arsenal; I've already tested her with those moves," Wang Qian stated coldly.

"What, really? Sis, you..." Wang Hai showed a shocked expression, gestured across his neck, and cautiously indicated, "You've taken action against her subordinates."

"It was just a probe, and I did not act directly," Wang Qian spoke indifferently.

"Sis, you are truly formidable." Wang Hai flattered Wang Qian by giving a thumbs-up.

"Sis, I've long admired Su Qingyu. Could you..."

"Shut up, you're such a useless thing," Wang Qian scolded directly. "I'm telling you, if I win, Su Qingyu will naturally come to your hands, but if I lose..." Wang Qian made a gentle swiping gesture across her neck.

"Understand?"

"I understand, I do."

............

The next day, at Tianya Group.

Since the announcement of Su Qingyu's marriage, the company had plunged into an endless vortex of gossip.

"Miss Zhuang, what are you looking at so intently?" As Ye Shikai approached the entrance to the president's office, he saw Zhuang Yan absorbed in scrolling through her phone, oblivious to anyone approaching.

"Oh, the groom himself," Zhuang Yan exclaimed in surprise, "Recently, the entire company is buzzing about the gossip between you and the president, aren't you curious?"

"Er, not really," Ye Shikai replied awkwardly.

"You, the PR department's most handsome man, are getting 'married off'. Ah, I wonder how many female colleagues will feel heartbroken," Zhuang Yan teased.

"Haha, that's an overstatement," Ye Shikai replied, a bit annoyed. PR department's most handsome man—how many men were there in the PR department anyway? Didn't they have any sense?

And why use the term 'married off'? He was getting married through a proper match, not like some son-in-law moving into the wife's family.

"In wealth and honor, do not forget each other." Zhuang Yan stood up and patted Ye Shikai's shoulder earnestly, "Now that you're on the rise, don't forget about us who toil away here."

"Right, I wanted to talk to you about something." Zhuang Yan's face suddenly flushed, "Next time, could you not call me Miss Zhuang?"

"Why, you don't like being praised?" Ye Shikai asked, curious.

"Look, you're marrying the president, if you keep praising me, I'm worried the president might get in a bad mood and then..."

"Have you fired?" Ye Shikai concluded.

"Hmph, I worked hard in school, searched for a job, and finally made it to this position. I don't want to lose my job over a word from you," Zhuang Yan huffed and sat down in her chair.

"Haha, if Qingyu is that petty, then there's no way I would be marrying her," Ye Shikai chuckled lightly, "You worry too much."

"That's what you men don't understand," Zhuang Yan retorted, "You have no idea—women who are jealous can be very scary; they're completely different from their usual selves."
