"Ning Chuan's skills, I believe the security team should be familiar with them, so Zhang Yong, you shouldn't have any objections," Qin Shiyun stated confidently.
"As for Ning Chuan's recklessness, his actions have already proven that he is reliable. I don't think there's anything reckless about it," she continued.
"So, let's decide it like this. From now on, Ning Chuan will be the manager of the Security Department at Meicompany," Qin Shiyun declared without a doubt.
As a female CEO, she had a certain level of determination.
Ning Chuan furrowed his brow, thinking that he would only be responsible for Qin Shiyun's safety and not be some kind of security department manager.
Suddenly, a figure walked in from outside.
Wearing an expensive suit, meticulously combed hair, and a handsome smile on his face, it was Wu Shaoyu, the young master of the Wu family in Jiangcheng.
The Wu family, where Wu Shaoyu belonged, was a famous wealthy family in Jiangcheng.
Several shopping malls in the city center were owned by the Wu family, and they were also Meicompany's largest distributor.
Therefore, even though Wu Shaoyu was not part of Meicompany, almost no one dared to provoke him whenever he visited the company.
"Shiyun, I heard that someone planted a bomb in your company. Are you okay?" he asked with concern.
"Shiyun, you must have been frightened, right? How about I treat you to lunch at noon and help you relax?" Wu Shaoyu walked over with big strides, reaching out to grab Qin Shiyun's hand.
"Wu Shaoyu, the bomb incident has already been handled by the police. You don't need to worry, and there's no need for lunch," Qin Shiyun replied indifferently, taking a step back to refuse.
Qin Shiyun's rejection made Wu Shaoyu's face slightly change.
He furrowed his brow and said, "Shiyun, if you refuse to have a meal with me, then there's no need for our families to continue cooperating."
Wu Shaoyu's words were a blatant threat. The Wu family was Meicompany's largest sales channel, and if they terminated the cooperation, the company would suffer heavy losses.
"Wu Shaoyu, business is business. What does it have to do with having a meal? I don't think Mr. Wu would terminate the cooperation with Meicompany just because of a meal," Qin Shiyun said calmly, showing neither weakness nor submission.
Although Wu Shaoyu was from the Wu family, he was not the one in charge, so Qin Shiyun was not afraid of him.
"Shiyun, what if I insist on having a meal with you today?" Wu Shaoyu's face darkened, and he approached Qin Shiyun again, pressuring her.
"Zhang Yong!" Qin Shiyun quickly took two steps back and shouted.
Zhang Yong was about to intervene and stop Wu Shaoyu.
"Wu Shaoyu, do you dare to stop me?" Wu Shaoyu glared at Zhang Yong.
"I... I don't dare, Wu Shaoyu, I don't dare..." Zhang Yong trembled in fear and instinctively stepped back.
Wu Shaoyu, is someone not to be trifled with, he was only, a mere deputy manager of the security department, how dare he provoke Wu Shaoyu.
Wu Shaoyu smirked, reaching out his hand again, trying to forcefully grab Qin Shiyun.
In the next moment, Ning Chuan stepped forward and stood in front of Wu Shaoyu.
"Since Ms. Qin doesn't want to have a meal with you, it's better not to insist so stubbornly," Ning Chuan said coldly.
"Who are you? A new security guard? Do you dare to stop me? Do you believe I can make you unable to survive in Jiangcheng?" Wu Shaoyu was stunned and angrily retorted.
"He is the new manager of our security department, Ning Chuan. He is an employee of our company, and I pay his salary. Wu Shaoyu, on what basis can you make him unable to survive?" Qin Shiyun said coldly.
"Hmph, just a security guard. Think that i can't do anything to you? Get lost!" Wu Shaoyu pointed at Ning Chuan's nose and said.
"No one can point at my nose and say such things," Ning Chuan calmly said.
With a wave of his hand, he slapped Wu Shaoyu's face heavily.
Smack!
The sound was crisp and loud, shocking everyone present.
"You... How dare you hit me?" Wu Shaoyu was dumbfounded by the slap.
"You dare to hit Wu Shaoyu?"
Zhang Yong was dumbfounded by what he saw.
"Ning Chuan! You bastard! How dare you hit Wu Shaoyu? Get down on your knees and apologize to him!" Li Qiushui shouted at Ning Chuan.
"You want to point your finger at me too?" Ning Chuan turned his head and glanced at Li Qiushui.
Startled, Li Qiushui quickly withdrew her hand, afraid that Ning Chuan would slap her as well.
"Damn security guard! Do you know who I am? I'm the young master of the Wu family in Jiangcheng!" Wu Shaoyu covered his face, glowering at Ning Chuan.
"The Wu family? Just some nobodies as far as I'm concerned," Ning Chuan raised an eyebrow.
"You dare to call the Wu family nobodies? Do you want to die, you damn thing?" Wu Shaoyu roared in anger.
Smack!
Ning Chuan raised his hand and slapped Wu Shaoyu on the other side of his face, then calmly said, "I don't appreciate being insulted."
"You!"
Wu Shaoyu received another slap, becoming infuriated. He yelled at Qin Shiyun, "Qin Shiyun, make your security guard kneel down and apologize to me!"
However, Qin Shiyun's face turned cold as she replied, "Firstly, Ning Chuan is the manager of our company's security department, not just a security guard. Secondly, Ning Chuan hit you to protect me, and I don't think he owes you an apology."
"What?!" Wu Shaoyu was stunned and then disbelievingly said, "Qin Shiyun, are you going against me for the sake of a security guard? You better think it through! Are you not afraid that the Wu family will terminate our cooperation with Meicompany?"
"I trust the judgment of Mr. Wu. The cooperation between Meicompany and the Wu family is mutually beneficial. We'll both gain from it, and we'll both lose if it ends," Qin Shiyun confidently stated.
"Fine, fine, fine, Qin Shiyun! I never expected that you, this bitch, would go against me for a security guard!" Wu Shaoyu exclaimed. "Is this security guard your kept man?"
"You slut, pretending to be so innocent all the time, turns out you're a whore who keeps a gigolo!"
"Is this security guard satisfying you? If not, I..."
Angry and humiliated, Wu Shaoyu spewed vulgar insults at Qin Shiyun.
Ning Chuan furrowed his brow.
Protecting the target meant not only keeping them safe but also safeguarding their dignity.
Thud!
Ning Chuan stepped forward again, grabbed Wu Shaoyu's collar, and delivered several slaps to his face one after another.
Wu Shaoyu's cheeks swelled like buns, and he could no longer utter a word. Ning Chuan then grabbed him and threw him out of the company's gate.
"You damn security guard! You wait for me! I won't let you off the hook!" Wu Shaoyu glared at Ning Chuan with hatred, regretting why he didn't bring bodyguards when he went out.
After Ning Chuan returned, Zhang Yong's face was filled with fear, repeatedly saying,
"It's over, it's over, my friend, you've provoked Wu Shaoyu. Even if he can't harm you while you're in the company, there will come a time when you're not here, right? You must have relatives and friends, right? By provoking Wu Shaoyu, he can truly make your life unbearable in Jiangcheng!"
"Ning Chuan, you acted too impulsively, but don't worry. Since you're an employee of my company, I'll protect you," Qin Shiyun reassured Ning Chuan upon seeing his furrowed brow.
Ning Chuan didn't pay much attention to what everyone was saying.
He simply walked up to Qin Shiyun, his expression serious, and earnestly said,
"In the future, don't take advantage of my protection to attract unnecessary attention. Otherwise, I'll find it bothersome."
"What?" Qin Shiyun's eye twitched.
