Beauty and the Bodyguard

"However, this is my first time discussing cooperation with their company, and they probably don't know that much about my surroundings. So although I have doubts, I don't have any convincing evidence."

Chu Pengzhan shook his head again, as if denying his guess.

"Uncle Chu, when I went to the bathroom before, I heard a man talking on the phone in the bathroom."

Lin Yi told the contents of the phone call he heard in the bathroom before.

Chu Pengzhan frowned as he listened to Lin Yi's words. He had previously suspected that there was something wrong with the company he had gone to discuss business cooperation with.

The negotiation was almost done and the only thing left was to sign the contract, but after Chu Pengzhan left, the other party used various reasons to shirk the signing!

And he seemed to have been waiting for something, and kept looking at the time. In the end, when he didn't wait, he found an excuse to say that this cooperation was immature and that a meeting was needed to discuss it.

Although Chu Pengzhan was very annoyed with the company's back-tracking, after all, the contract had not been signed yet, and he had the right to regret it. Chu Pengzhan could only say a few words about working together again if there was a chance next time, and then left in a hurry. .

However, the other party's actions made him suspicious. He didn't think anything of it at first. After learning that Chu Mengyao was captured by the bank robbers, Chu Pengzhan speculated whether there was any connection between the two.

But after all, on the surface, there is no inevitable connection between these two things. Although the other party's attitude is a bit weird, Chu Pengzhan can't find the problem, and he is just a little suspicious.

But after listening to Lin Yi's words, Chu Pengzhan understood everything at once!

In this cooperation, the other party never thought of being sincere from the beginning, but resorted to kidnapping their daughter to coerce themselves to achieve their goals!

Indeed, if my daughter had not been rescued by Lin Yi at that time, but had been captured by the other party, as long as the other party's company had revealed a little bit of news during the negotiation, I would have had to give in and promise the other party some benefits for the sake of my daughter's safety. .

And afterwards, the other party could completely deny it. After all, the cause of the incident was a bank robbery, and the daughter was just used as a hostage.

With this layer of cover, the fact that the other party committed the crime of kidnapping can be well concealed.

No wonder the other party kept looking at the time as if waiting for something, but it turned out that he was waiting for this!

Judging from Lin Yi's words, since the man who was talking on the phone in the bathroom was on the top floor of the group, he must be a senior figure in the group.

With this person working together inside and outside, the other party's plan was perfect, but the other party didn't take into account the uncertain factor of Lin Yi!

It seems that it was a wise move for me to get him to stay with my daughter!

At first, Chu Pengzhan only arranged Lin Yi to be by Chu Mengyao's side according to the advice of the old man in the family. He didn't think about other things. But what he didn't expect was that Lin Yi played a key role due to a strange combination of circumstances.

"I will investigate this matter."

A stern look flashed in Chu Pengzhan's eyes. Although he had conflicts with some senior executives in the company, someone actually made trouble with his daughter. This was something Chu Pengzhan would never allow.

Lin Yi nodded. He didn't want to get involved in these matters. As the chairman of the group, Chu Pengzhan naturally had his own methods.

Lin Yi just told Chu Pengzhan what he heard. How to do it was up to Chu Pengzhan.

"Xiaoyi, you didn't alert the snake, did you?"

Chu Pengzhan suddenly thought of an important question, that is, did Lin Yi alert him when he eavesdropped in the bathroom.

If the opponent is alert, it will be difficult to catch the opponent's fox tail.

"Uncle Chu, don't worry."

Lin Yi said with a smile: "When Uncle Fu's call came in, I was also shocked, but I pretended to be someone who came to the group to do business and went to the wrong floor..."

Lin Yi told Chu Pengzhan what he had said to himself before.

"Haha, not bad, you are very alert!"

Chu Pengzhan praised.

Now the more he looks at Lin Yi, the more satisfied he feels. At first it was just the wish of the old man at home, and Chu Pengzhan just followed the old man's wishes.

But now, he truly feels that Lin Yi is a rare talent!

Chu Pengzhan's father, Chu Sanwa, is a very influential figure in the family.

He was the one who founded Pengzhan Group in the beginning. Although Pengzhan Group is now in the hands of Chu Pengzhan, Chu Sanwa still has the final say at home.

Many shareholders in the company today are old friends who followed their father to conquer the world at that time. Although the shares have now been passed to their children, grandchildren, relatives and friends, some of these people have begun to become restless, but Chu Pengzhan, in order to take care of his father's face, , and nothing will happen to them.

But what happened today touched Chu Pengzhan's bottom line. Chu Mengyao was his only daughter, and these people actually made trouble with his daughter. This made Chu Pengzhan really angry for the first time.

"By the way, Uncle Chu, can you tell me what tasks you have assigned me to do?"

Lin Yi hesitated for a moment, and took advantage of today's opportunity to decide to ask.

I have been in Songshan City for several days, but I haven't seen any important tasks. In addition to accompanying Chu Mengyao to and from school every day, making some breakfast for her, and cooking a few clowns...

Although this life is extremely easy, Lin Yi feels uneasy!

He is here to carry out a big mission. It is said that that mission will allow him to eat and drink for the rest of his life!

But Lin Yi would never think that by accompanying the eldest lady to study, he would be rewarded with food and clothing that would last him a lifetime.

"Huh? Oh, it's a mission..."

After hearing Lin Yi's words, Chu Pengzhan gave him a strange look, and then said: "There is indeed a very important task, but the top priority is that you and Yaoyao must build a good relationship, so as to ensure the smooth execution of the task!"

"Ah!?"

Lin Yi was stunned, building a good relationship with Chu Mengyao? To perform the task?

What the hell is this mission? Is it still related to Chu Mengyao?

Could it be that there was someone behind the scenes who wanted to harm Chu Mengyao, and Chu Pengzhan wanted to use Chu Mengyao as bait, and then let himself find out the person behind the scenes?

This was the only thing Lin Yi could think of. Chu Pengzhan's words were so unclear that he was still confused.

However, based on Lin Yi's past experience in missions, many employers will keep the mission confidential and will not reveal the details until the moment before execution.

Although Lin Yi knew that it was impossible for him to leak the secret, after all, from the perspective of his employer, it was better to be cautious and be careful not to make a big mistake.

Lin Yi also understood.
