The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

Chapter 551: Restoration of the Contract



"I'm not meddling with police cases. Everyone should take care of their own issues; didn't your kindergarten teacher teach you that?" Ye Shikai looked disdainful, as expected, Zhang Ting was probably approaching him mostly because of the case. He certainly wasn't Doraemon, much less a walking police arsenal. In this matter, the most crucial reason for Ye Shikai was that the murderer was Wang Kai. Could it be that they expected Ye Shikai to go arrest Wang Kai himself?

"It's not like you are asked to fight with the murderer; I just hope you could communicate a bit with our chief, so that I could also join the investigation," Zhang Ting said, somewhat reluctantly.

"Impossible, I'm just an ordinary citizen. I don't have that much sway to make Director Song listen to me," Ye Shikai said indifferently.

"Tch, forget it. If you don't want to help, that's fine." Zhang Ting snorted coldly and began playing with her phone, propping up her legs in a haughty manner of the owner of the place.

"Hey, why are you being so casual about this? Aren't you a police officer? Why are you occupying my car now?" Ye Shikai looked at Zhang Ting with a hint of shock, one term coming to mind.

Hooligan.

"Sorry, I'm off duty right now. I came to see you today as a friend, and yes, I am this casual; what are you going to do about it?" Zhang Ting said arrogantly with a bossy tone. Then she ignored Ye Shikai's look and continued fiddling with her phone.

"A female hooligan." Ye Shikai broke into a cold sweat, really wanting to kick her out of the car, but what if she accused him of attacking a police officer? He hadn't expected such a reliable policewoman to have such a stubborn and shameless side.

Thinking it over again, if he threw her out of the car and angered her, what if she targeted him later? If she brought him back to the police station directly like the first time, wouldn't that be an even bigger hassle?

"Do you have any drinks? I'm thirsty," Zhang Ting asked casually, holding out her hand as if it were her due. This female rascal really thought she was a queen.

"Here you go." Ye Shikai grabbed a can of Coke, suddenly thinking of a mischievous idea.

"So slow." Zhang Ting leisurely took the Coke, while Ye Shikai stared intently at her hand.

"Psst," the moment she opened the Coke, it burst out like a deflated gas can, splashing everywhere...

"Ye Shikai." Zhang Ting cursed loudly. Ye Shikai grabbed some debris to shield his face, pretending to be innocent. When passing the Coke, Ye Shikai had secretly infused a bit of Inner Strength into it so that once Zhang Ting opened it, the Inner Strength would cause it to explode, just like if it had been vigorously shaken.

"Yo, how careless of you! My seat is genuine leather... Ah, are you crazy?" Zhang Ting pounced on him like a cat, biting Ye Shikai's arm fiercely.

"Humph." Zhang Ting sneered, "If you don't agree with me today, I won't leave the car, and then I'll tell your wife... that you... harassed me." When Zhang Ting said "harassed," there was a clear flicker of shyness in her eyes.

"How could you be so shameless! Spewing lies about an innocent girl," Ye Shikai yelled loudly.

"Just agree to it then. All you need to do is talk to Director Song, at the very least, let me participate in the investigation," Zhang Ting finally gave in, looking downcast.

"Ah, alright." Seeing this, Ye Shikai helplessly nodded his head. At this point, refusing her seemed unreasonable.

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

Tianya Group.

"What?! Chen Group has restored the contract again?" Ye Shikai exclaimed in surprise. Upon returning to the company, he saw Su Qingyu looking relieved at him. After asking An Lan, he found out that Chen Group had indeed reinstated the contract without any additional conditions, and the other companies that had broken off their contracts were also following suit, lifting Tianya Group out of its predicament at once.

"President, we anticipate that tonight the company's stock price will fully recover, even possibly increase," Zhuang Yan said with a surprised smile, looking at the computer.

"Mhmm, good." Su Qingyu smiled lightly, giving Ye Shikai a big hug, which made him dumbfounded.

"Honey, thank you for your help." Su Qingyu's gesture made Ye Shikai's nerves tingle. When he was at Chen Group earlier, Chen Yuxin had hugged him in the same way, but that feeling seemed somehow different from before...

"Ah, well, you are my wife, after all. But what exactly happened?" Ye Shikai asked curiously. Now knowing Chen Yuxin's true identity, Ye Shikai also understood that the leader of Chen Group was none other than Chen Yuxin. However, he didn't expect that, as shattered as she had seemed earlier, she would agree to continue the cooperation.

"Wasn't it you who talked to them?" After hearing this, An Lan asked curiously. Indeed, Ye Shikai went to Chen Group this time to talk to the high-level executives, and before he even returned, a phone call came in to continue the cooperation. Both women naturally thought it was due to Ye Shikai's efforts.

"Yeah, I just... casually said a few words." Ye Shikai evaded guiltily. The matter with Chen Yuxin wasn't something that could be explained in a few sentences, plus Ye Shikai felt a bit guilty towards Su Qingyu. Before he found Chen Yuxin, Ye Shikai would often think of her occasionally, even keeping her photo in his wallet. Now that they had met, he felt that there was something odd.

Ye Shikai had once fantasized that when they met again, he would be ecstatic, but now, he felt an emptiness in his heart...

"You really are modest," An Lan said with a smile, the only exception being Su Qingyu, whose eyes revealed a glance filled with deeper meaning.

"Ring, ring." Suddenly, a phone rang, and Su Qingyu realized she had acted inappropriately and quickly released Ye Shikai.

"I'll take a call." Ye Shikai said somewhat awkwardly, taking out his phone to see an unfamiliar number. Although the news often warned against answering calls from strangers to prevent fraud, Ye Shikai had a feeling that although the number was unknown, the person on the other end was definitely not a stranger.

"Hello, may I ask who's speaking?" Ye Shikai left the office and answered the call in the hallway.

"Kai, it's me." Chen Yuxin's voice came through the phone, calm and without any sobbing. Ye Shikai breathed a sigh of relief; Chen Yuxin had always been fragile-hearted, and he really worried that she might be too distraught.

"Xin, it's you."

"Tonight, let's have dinner together," said Chen Yuxin after a few seconds.

"Of course, no problem," Ye Shikai responded with a smile.

"Then I'll have someone pick you up tonight. You're still at the company, right?" continued Chen Yuxin.

"Mhmm, or else, I'll come find you. Having someone else to pick me up feels a bit strange."
