"Pfft pfft pfft!" Four coins struck the wrists of the four assassins with deadly accuracy! The assassins howled in agony as their firearms clattered to the ground, the coins embedded deeply into the bones of their wrists.
Before the four assassins could react, Lin Shuang fired off another four coins.
The four assassins screamed again, their abdomens hit by the coins, causing them to collapse to the ground, trembling uncontrollably.
Whoosh! At the entrance of the building, all the security guards were stunned by this scene?
Su Wanqiao was also dumbfounded, staring blankly at what was unfolding??
Soon a large group of bodyguards rushed out from inside the building and detained the four assassins. After some interrogation, Su Wanqiao learned that these four assassins… had been sent by Ye Gucheng!
Ye Gucheng, failing to drug her and take advantage of her last night, had sent assassins today, disguised as employees of the Su Corporation, hoping to take the opportunity to kidnap Su Wanqiao back to his place…
But unexpectedly, as the group of assassins prepared to strike, they were mistaken by Lin Shuang for enemies after him, and he struck first, taking all four down.
Su Wanqiao's pretty face turned icy, not expecting Ye Gucheng to be so ruthless. He hadn't succeeded last night but dared to make a move today?
"Hand these people over to the police!" Su Wanqiao commanded coldly.
Her subordinates complied and immediately took the four assassins to the police station.
Lin Shuang stood aside, regretting inwardly... Damn, so these assassins weren't here for him? He had gotten involved unnecessarily and even exposed his hidden skills.
At this moment, Su Wanqiao crossed her arms and stared slowly at the man before her, "How did you realize these four were assassins?"
Lin Shuang explained with a wry smile, "I noticed their malicious eyes and thought they were old enemies coming after me."
Su Wanqiao gave him a sidelong glance, "It seems you've had quite a few enemies in the past?"
Lin Shuang didn't elaborate.
Su Wanqiao asked another question, "Where did you learn that skill with the coins? Your moves are not bad at all?"
Lin Shuang smiled broadly, "Back in my village, I learned hunting. Since I was young, I've used slingshots and throwing knives for hunting, heh heh."
A profound look flashed in Su Wanqiao's eyes.
"Congratulations on your promotion. From now on, you will have two jobs. During the day, you are responsible for cleaning the ladies' restrooms in the office, and while commuting, you will be my personal bodyguard driver, escorting me to and from work. Don't worry, I will pay you double the salary," Su Wanqiao said indifferently.
The security colleagues at the door were shocked. He got promoted just like that??
Lin Shuang was also startled. Promoted? And with two jobs simultaneously?
"Being a driver is no problem, but cleaning the ladies' restrooms... Can someone else do that? I don't think I'm suitable for the job," Lin Shuang really didn't want to clean ladies' restrooms.
"No," Su Wanqiao said unequivocally, then turned on her heels and walked away in her high heels…
Watching the retreating figure of this icy beauty, Lin Shuang gritted his teeth; for the money, he would endure it! At least he could earn double the salary.
...
After Su Wanqiao returned to her office, her younger sister had already learned about the incident downstairs.
Her sister rushed up to her anxiously, "Sis, are you really planning to have that thug be your personal driver??"
Su Wanqiao nodded coldly, "He's quite skilled. Being able to rescue us from so many of Ye Gucheng's bodyguards last night proves he has some martial arts foundation. Just what I need now as I'm short-handed, so I'll have him work as a bodyguard."
"But isn't that letting him off too easy! I wish I could tear him into pieces!" Su Zhiyan gritted her teeth in anger.
Su Wanqiao's eyes narrowed, "Don't worry, he'll drive me to work and back, but during the day he'll still be cleaning the ladies' restrooms in the company. I'll make sure to torture him slowly."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhiyan felt somewhat mollified.
"Sister... Last night, Ye Gucheng pretended to invite us to discuss a partnership but drugged us instead... and today he even dared to send assassins! He's truly despicable and shameless! What do you plan to do about him?" Su Zhiyan asked somewhat anxiously.
Su Wanqiao's beautiful eyes narrowed as she spoke, "To deal with a despicable person, one naturally has to fight fire with fire. Don't worry, his retribution is coming soon. But right now, there's another problem to deal with."
As she spoke, she pointed to the gold-embossed invitation on the table.
It was an invitation from Bai Jingze, the Crown Prince of the Bai Family Group in Hai City.
Tonight, Bai Jingze was to host a dinner at the Peace Hotel, for a Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce networking and cooperation event.
Su Wanqiao was also among those invited, and Bai Jingze had personally invited her.
"Sister, is Bai Jingze still pestering you?" Su Zhiyan's beautiful eyes furrowed.
Su Wanqiao sighed. She had once been engaged to the Bai Family, but with Bai Jingze's questionable behavior, how could Su Wanqiao possibly marry such a filthy playboy?
She had been trying to call off the engagement for years, yet the Bai Family refused to agree and continuously tried to force the marriage.
"Such a big nuisance. I'll make things clear with him tonight." Su Wanqiao shook her head, overwhelmed by the thought of the Bai Family's vast influence and power.
...
At dusk, it was Lin Shuang's first time being employed as a driver.
Su Wanqiao asked him to drive her to the Peace Hotel for the banquet.
Half an hour later, Lin Shuang, driving a black Bentley Mulsanne, arrived at the Peace Hotel on time.
"You'll come in with me. Remember... if anyone tries to harm me later, you need to protect me. If you do well, I'll give you a raise," Su Wanqiao reminded him before they entered the hotel together...
But just as Su Wanqiao pushed the door open and walked into the banquet hall,
a burst of fireworks went off inside the hall.
The entire banquet hall was decorated magnificently, in vibrant, festive red.
Bai Jingze, wearing a white suit, was elegantly proceeding towards Su Wanqiao.
"Wanqiao, today is your first day as the president of the family corporation, a great day indeed, as well as the day our engagement will be made public. I have invited all the business elites from Hai City here tonight, to witness our union," Bai Jingze said gently and warmly, slowly kneeling on one knee and presenting a ten-carat diamond ring to Su Wanqiao.
"Wanqiao, will you honor our engagement and marry me?"
Su Wanqiao was completely dumbfounded.
This business dinner tonight, was it actually a proposal event set up by Bai Jingze?
Had she known this, she would never have come.
"I do not wish to!" Su Wanqiao coldly dropped the sentence and turned to leave.
All the guests in the banquet hall were stunned.
Bai Jingze's face tightened, and he hurriedly stepped forward to grab Su Wanqiao.
But at that moment, a figure stepped in front of Bai Jingze.
It was none other than Lin Shuang.
"Where did this stray dog come from? Out of my way!" Bai Jingze said coldly, trying to push Lin Shuang aside.
But when he pushed hard, he found that Lin Shuang was as immovable as Mount Tai, not budging an inch.
"My boss said she doesn't want to marry you. Why are you so delusional?" Lin Shuang criticized lightly, holding a cigarette in his mouth.
