"What's wrong, Shawn Ge?" Lei whispered, feeling strange about the sudden order.
"Lei Ge, take care of Mr. Wang. I'll check the car first," Shawn said in a low, firm voice. Shawn knew that this was an emergency, and there was no time to argue.
Lei nodded, letting Shawn check the car more.Shawn looked everywhere, looking for anything hidden. He found some small cameras and listening devices in a few places he didn't expect. After he took out the devices, he made sure he didn't leave anything behind. Then he finally got out of the car.
"Here!" Shawn held up the things he had found.Lily frowned, and Liam chuckled in annoyance, but they didn't say anything.
Lei and Hao, who had been watching, exchanged glances. They both realized this probably wasn't the first incident.
"Also, the car's GPS has been hacked, but I've already fixed it.Miss Lily, you need to be more careful with the people around Mr. Wang," Shawn said seriously.
He then turned to the driver, who had been silent and watched the mess without moving. The man backed away, noticing the menacing aura that was beginning to emanate.
"I'll contact your company," Shawn said calmly, but his eyes showed he was serious.
"Let's go back to the hotel!"Shawn turned around, opened the car door, and let Liam in first, followed by Lily.
After that, he talked to Lei and Hao for a while, making sure everything was under control. Then, he and Hao got into the car, following Liam and Lily. While Lei sat in the front, accompanying the driver, who still looked uneasy.
"Miss Lily, please listen to what I'm saying. After this, I'll also tell Mr. Lukas and Mr. Oscar everything," Shawn said in a calm but firm voice.
Lily said the same thing firmly. "Mr. Shawn, Lukas and I have actually suspected the involvement of a close person in some recent incidents. Therefore, Lukas asked you to escort Liam while in Milan."
"Jie, fans often do things that are not allowed. So far, they've only been limited to stalking in Beijing and the areas around it, even if it's just to take pictures secretly. But this time..."Hao spoke carefully, but then he stopped. You could see that he was nervous, like a shadow that refused to leave the wall.
"To get access to a luxury hotel in Milan. He's not just any fan. Mr. Wang, it seems that your fan this time is someone special. Isn't that right, Hao Ge?" Shawn continued Hao's words in a casual tone, but his sharp eyes glanced at Liam, as if testing the superstar's reaction.
"I don't care who she or he is," Liam said, staying calm. His face remained as cold and stiff as ever."Shawn Ge is going to take care of me and make sure we are safe and comfortable," he repeated, this time leaning closer to the bodyguard in a confident way.
Shawn turned his head slowly, his gaze soft but sharp.He whispered softly, just enough for Liam to hear, "Us? Only you, Mr. Wang."
"Us! Remember that, Shawn Ge!" Liam replied in a quiet voice, like the rush of wind that only two people can feel.His eyes were defiant, but his lips formed a small, meaningful smile.
Shawn only smiled faintly. It was an unpredictable smile, like a cloud hiding the secret of a storm. He chose not to respond further. There was no point in arguing with Liam, he thought.
His calmness that had been practiced for years returned to him. Meanwhile, Lily and Hao could only let out a long sigh. Liam's attitude like this was indeed out of the ordinary, like a star that occasionally appeared in the middle of a cloudy sky, confusing and alluring.
As the night went on, they arrived at the hotel.Shawn and Lily immediately contacted the company that provided the car Liam had used in Milan. Lily, who had contacted the company beforehand, was alert and in control.
Lei and Hao accompanied Liam to his room to rest.Liam's face looked tired, but he also looked calm. Behind his haughty and cold appearance, he was just an ordinary man who needed peace when his body was tired and fragile.
He had an odd feeling when he arrived at the hotel. It was hard to describe, but he felt uneasy. His heart was beating faster, and he felt a sense of caution.
Liam was stunned, and his hand movements stopped as he took the watch off his wrist.He looked at the travel bag on the side of the bed. The bag was open a little bit, as if it was challenging him.
He remembered the incident in the car, and he felt suspicious. He felt like he was being watched, like there was an invisible force that followed him everywhere.
"What's wrong, Boss?" Lei asked, his voice breaking the silence, while his sharp eyes scanned Liam's expression. On the other side, Shawn and Lily who had just arrived at Liam's room were watching. So did Hao. All four pairs of eyes were focused on him, waiting for an explanation.
Liam started to say something, but he stopped. He seemed worried and nervous. "I feel... someone touched that besides me," he said, pointing at the travel bag on the floor.His voice was barely louder than a whisper, but it was clear he was nervous.
"Are you sure?" Lily asked, squinting and raising her eyebrows, doubting Liam's instincts.
Liam nodded doubtfully. The hesitation, though small, was evident from the way he folded his arms across his chest, as if seeking a foothold in the uncertainty.
"Why don't you check it out?" Shawn said calmly, which was different from Liam's anxious tone.It was a reasonable idea, because there was no way for someone outside the room to get in without Liam's permission.
"You'd better. Check it out!"Lily With a slow breath, Liam finally approached his travel bag. His eyes searched the bag carefully, looking for something-anything-that looked different. Tension crawled through his body, making his fingers stiff as he opened the zipper. He knew something had gone wrong since he last picked up his clothes this morning. But what?, and Lei and Hao nodded in agreement.
"That should be it. Check it out!"Lily said, agreeing with Shawn.Lei and Hao nodded in unison, agreeing with Shawn and Lily.
