The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

It must have been when Chen Yuxin kissed his neck last night, Ye Shikai's mind was chaotic like an atomic bomb had exploded. A few seconds later, he calmed down. Such a kiss mark was not easy to fade, but fortunately, it was not too high up. His shirt collar should cover it. Luckily, Su Qingyu didn't notice earlier; otherwise, it would have been hard to explain. Thinking back, Ye Shikai was truly grateful that he didn't return to his room to sleep last night.

After bathing, Ye Shikai took a deep breath, trying to let himself forget those unpleasant things.

"Brother-in-law, you're out." Su Ziqing poured a cup of coffee for Ye Shikai. "My sister had some urgent business to attend to at the company, so she left first. Hurry up and eat your breakfast."

"Alright."

After eating, Ye Shikai got into his Lexus and was about to start the car when his phone rang unexpectedly, showing an incoming call from Tianjing.

"This guy, must be nothing good when he calls." Ye Shikai tossed the phone aside, ignoring it. After several seconds, the phone ceased ringing. Suddenly, Ye Shikai had a bad premonition. He looked at his phone again, gritted his teeth, and pressed the call button.

...

Zhang Ting was patrolling in a police car while trying to gather more information about the murder case.

"Ting, where do we even start looking for this murderer?" asked a young police officer sitting in the passenger seat, who greatly admired his senior from the police academy, known as the legendary "Sister Ting" at the station.

"How should I know?" Zhang Ting glanced at the file. "We barely have any information about the murderer; it's like finding a needle in a haystack." Zhang Ting felt a headache coming on and rubbed her temples. Once again, she thought of Ye Shikai, snorting coldly under her breath; that jerk promised to help but had completely disappeared.

"Ring, ring." At that moment, the communication device in the car rang; it was a message from police headquarters. The officer didn't hesitate and instantly answered the call.

"Ting, good news," the officer exclaimed with a surprised look on his face after hearing the message.

"What now?" Zhang Ting asked unperturbed.

"The police just reported that the murderer has surrendered," the young officer just finished speaking when Zhang Ting abruptly slammed on the brakes, and the car screeched to a halt.

"What, surrendered?" Zhang Ting exclaimed. "What's going on? Are you sure it's not a prank?" Zhang Ting was puzzled; there had been a similar incident of someone surrendering at a previous crime scene investigation, but it turned out to be a major mistake – the person had nothing to do with their case and had coincidentally gone to surrender for something else. This reversal had disheartened Zhang Ting, so she had asked Ye Shikai for help again, and now, she was somewhat skeptical.

"I don't know; that's just the message. The murderer came in this morning to surrender."

"Let's go, hurry back to the station."

...

In a coffee shop in Yanjing.

"Mr. Ye, you're here," Tianjing respectfully stood up and addressed Ye Shikai.

"Speak quickly, I'm very busy," Ye Shikai replied, not showing much patience, but since it involved Wang Kai, he had to come.

"Mr. Ye, you must know the purpose by now, Officer Zhang Ting from the police must have told you," Tianjing said with a faint smile, which Ye Shikai found irritating. Tianjing bore an air of someone who thought everything was under his control.

"It's that murder case, I know, what about it?" Ye Shikai replied calmly.

"Someone had surrendered before, but due to negligence at work, it caused a major blunder, hence the National Security Bureau has intensified the investigation," Tianjing took a sip of coffee. His tone suddenly switched. "However, someone else surrendered this morning."

"That's good, the net of heaven has wide meshes, but nothing escapes it," Ye Shikai said indifferently.

"Mr. Ye, you and I are both cultivators, you must have seen the photos of the victims, hence, I believe you understand," Tianjing placed a stack of photos on the table. "I've learned that the person who surrendered is a security personnel from Dark Night Bar, claiming that they had retaliated because some thugs were affecting the bar's business, and accidentally killed them."

"How could an ordinary person kill five people with a single strike?" Tianjing asked, smiling.

"Who are you asking, I'm asking you? This matter is none of my business; I have work to do, no further issues, I won't keep you company," Ye Shikai gulped down his coffee, stood up, and spoke impatiently.

"These people are security from Dark Night Bar, and the hidden owner behind the bar is Ms. Luo Shiqi, Mr. Ye, would you mind if we investigate her?" As Tianjing finished speaking, Ye Shikai let out a disdainful laugh. This matter truly didn't scare Ye Shikai from troubling Luo Shiqi; it probably wasn't her doing. Tianjing's real intention might still be to utilize Ye Shikai's concern for Luo Shiqi to assist the National Security Bureau in solving the case.

"I really don't mind, I trust you won't confuse right and wrong," Ye Shikai smiled lightly. Tianjing did not expect that the murderer turned out to be one of the twelve Main Gods, War God, and he probably did not know about Wang Kai's arrival.

However, Ye Shikai was not completely fearless; the National Security Bureau was Yanjing's sharp sword, specifically dealing with cultivators. Continuing this investigation would sooner or later expose Wang Kai, so it was better to have him leave Yanjing as soon as possible.

Ye Shikai's pupils suddenly dilated, as if recalling something. Where did Wang Kai go after finishing his meal at the food stall yesterday? Chen Yuxin wouldn't have made her move, would she? Thinking of this, Ye Shikai became somewhat uneasy and quickly pulled out his phone to call him.

"Beep...beep...beep..." After three rings, the call was finally answered.

"Old Wang, where are you?"

"Yo, Mr. Ye, you finally called," came a woman's cold voice from the other end of the phone. Ye Shikai's expression changed after hearing it; this voice was... Chen Ruoya.

"Mr. Ye, you left me at the police station yesterday. Isn't that kind of impolite?"

"Impolite my ass, where's Wang Kai, give him the phone," Ye Shikai yelled, this must be Chen Yuxin's doing. How did she manage it though? Wang Kai is a Main God with extraordinary strength, there shouldn't be many who can match him.

"Mr. Ye, don't worry, your friend is doing well; it's all arranged by the Family Head."

"Whew, hand the phone to her, I'll speak to her directly," Ye Shikai took a deep breath, not expecting Chen Yuxin to do such a thing. Regardless, Wang Kai was still his friend, and Chen Yuxin's actions were truly infuriating.
