The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 76 - Stupid to Death
76: Chapter 76 Stupid to Death
76 -76 Stupid to Death
Lin Yingying certainly didn’t believe him, she looked left and right at Long Fei who harbored ill intent and was even less convinced that there were such coincidences in the world.
She held the money pouch and asked again, “Are you sure you don’t want this money?”
Long Fei looked directly at her and nodded.
Lin Yingying said, “It’s okay, when you’ve thought it through you can come and find me.
Even if you don’t want this money, you can’t be a security guard at Lin’s Group anymore!”
Long Fei raised an eyebrow at her, with a hint of teasing, “Director Lin, you wouldn’t fire someone who got injured protecting the company’s assets, right?”
Lin Yingying looked at him with a troubled face and said, “What do you think!”
She grabbed the money pouch and turned to leave.
Long Fei lay down on the bed, laughing, and called out from behind, “Wife, take care!”
Lin Yingying came to a halt, turned around and said to him, “What did you just call me?”
Long Fei chuckled dryly, “Sorry about that, I sometimes don’t speak too clearly.
I meant to say ‘Director Lin, take care.’
Lin Yingying took a deep breath and glared fiercely at Long Fei before storming out the door.
Chu Feng was eavesdropping outside, and when the door opened, he rushed in so forcefully he almost fell to the ground.
He greeted Lin Yingying with a smile, took the lunchbox into the room, and glared at Long Fei, exclaiming, “Damn, are you out of your mind?
Someone is giving you a million and you don’t want it?”
“Helping my wife and asking for money?”
Long Fei showed off a bit, taking the lunchbox from his hands.
A bowl of double-cooked pork and a bowl of rice.
He picked up his chopsticks, opened his mouth and started devouring the meal, his stomach making comfortable noises in response.
Chu Feng, with a devilish smile, said, “I get it now, this is playing the long game.
Director Lin’s worth is way beyond a million.
If you marry into the Lin Family, you’ll be a billionaire!”
“Get lost!”
Long Fei glanced at him with a smile and asked, “Can you afford not to work today?”
Chu Feng sat on the opposite bed, crossing his legs and laughing, “You don’t need to worry about that.
Dude, I’m on an imperial mission, specifically here to take care of you.
Right now, you’re the company’s hero, having saved the financial department from a loss of half a million cash.
I heard they’re going to give you a big reward too!”
“Really?”
Long Fei stuffed his mouth full, saying happily, “That’s perfect, once the bonus comes in, I’ll go settle your tab.
Every time I go to Lao Shu Chuan, Brother Bang always looks at me with dubious intentions!”
Chu Feng hastily intervened, “Hold on, don’t you dare pay off my debt.
Bro is poor, but I don’t need your charity.
If you’ve got money, spend it on some decent clothes for yourself.
You’re a man chasing after a female CEO, and wearing street stall clothes every day – I’m embarrassed for you!”
“Piss off!”
Long Fei laughed and cursed, quickly finishing his meal and planning to sneak out with Chu Feng.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Wang Xiaoya, Zhang Li, and the security team’s Steel Hoop and Yang Huo walked in with fresh flowers and fruit, greeting Long Fei as they entered.
Zhang Li glanced at Chu Feng, obviously still holding a grudge against this heartbreaker.
Long Fei sat up, excitedly asking them, “What brings you here, aren’t you all supposed to be at work?”
“It’s off work hours now!”
Wang Xiaoya placed the fruit basket on the bedside table, and as soon as she saw him, tears welled up in her eyes.
She sat down next to Long Fei, and said anxiously, “Why aren’t you hooked up to an IV?
Didn’t people at the company say you were shot?
Is it serious?”
Steel Hoop and Yang Huo were also curious, “Yeah, boss, you look completely fine!?”
Long Fei laughed, “What, you were hoping to see me in trouble?”
Everyone just laughed along.
Wang Xiaoya glared at him and said, “Can’t you take anything seriously?
Everyone’s been so worried!”
Long Fei said with a laugh, “Don’t worry, I’m fine, my body could take a cannon and not shatter!”
Chu Feng teased from the side, “I can attest to that.
This brother of mine has a genuine Italian-made body.
Once on the battlefield, he can fire non-stop for an hour without busting a chamber!”
“Piss off!”
Long Fei laughed and cursed again.
Steel Hoop and Yang Huo were the first to catch on, barely holding back their laughter.
Zhang Li muttered softly, “A dog can’t spit out ivory!”
Only Wang Xiaoya looked confused, but after a moment, it seemed like she caught on and her cheeks instantly flushed red with frustration at being teased by these two guys.
Even at a time like this, they still had the mood for jokes.
Zhang Li didn’t want to stay with Chu Feng any longer and shouted to Wang Xiaoya, “Little Ya, I’m heading back first!
We have a roll call later, and someone needs to watch the front desk!”
Wang Xiaoya nodded and watched her leave.
Chu Feng told her to sit, while he ran out to send off his ex-girlfriend.
Steel Hoop and Yang Huo apologized uncomfortably to Long Fei, “Big Brother, we owe you big time for last night.
If there’s a chance in the future, we will definitely work hard under you!”
Long Fei frowned and asked, “What’s going on here?”
Both men blushed and said, “Last night we drank on the job and neglected our duties.
The management is looking for someone to blame, and we’re definitely going to be the scapegoats.
It looks like we won’t be able to stay at this company!”
Steel Hoop said, “Big Brother, you’ve made a big merit this time, and the company definitely won’t fire you.
By today, when the dismissal notice comes out, we’ll have to pack up and leave!”
Long Fei tightened his brows, hearing their implied request.
They wanted him to plead with the company to allow them to stay.
Although these two were somewhat opportunistic and inclined to bully the weak and fear the strong, they were still quite good at their jobs.
If they were to leave, who knows what the new colleagues would be like.
He comforted them by saying, “Don’t worry.
I’ll ask Chu Feng to speak on your behalf later, you probably won’t be fired!”
“Chu Feng?”
The two were surprised.
Wang Xiaoya also frowned and asked him, “For such a serious matter, can Chu Feng really make it happen?”
She had thought that Long Fei would seek help from Old Master Zhou on their behalf!
Such a trivial matter was not something Wang Xiaoya wanted to bother Long Fei with.
Long Fei gave a perfunctory reply, “I’m not sure about this, but he’s quite familiar with the higher-ups, so surely he’s of some use!”
Steel Hoop and Yang Huo, however, were thrilled and nodded continuously while bowing, “Boss, if we can stay because of you, we’ll definitely follow your lead from now on!”
“Right, if our jobs are saved, you can count on us; if you point east, we’ll never go west.”
Long Fei smiled, “We’re comrades in the same trench; there’s no need for formalities.
Go and rest for now, and I’ll try to figure something out for you!”
The two nodded and didn’t want to linger as third wheels.
They bid farewell to Long Fei and were so excited upon leaving that they wanted to shout out loud.
Wang Xiaoya got an apple for Long Fei and began peeling it, her face full of joy as she said, “I was always worried that even Old Master Zhou’s words wouldn’t work, but now you’ve made such a huge contribution, your job is definitely secure!”
Long Fei chuckled, “Are you that reluctant to see me leave?”
“Get lost!”
Wang Xiaoya’s face turned red, and she stuffed the apple into his mouth to shut him up.
Curious, she asked, “Your punishment decision hasn’t come down yet, and technically you don’t even have to work.
Why did you go there in the first place?”
Long Fei didn’t want to worry her and casually responded, “I wanted to make a good impression, who knew I’d get caught up in this mess!”
Wang Xiaoya looked at him and reproached, “It’s good that you’re okay.
If something had happened to you, how could I live with that?”
Long Fei bit into the apple and looked at her in surprise.
Wang Xiaoya realized what she had said and quickly explained, her face still red, “Don’t flatter yourself!
I just consider you a good friend, okay?”
Long Fei, who had been hesitant to declare his feelings, couldn’t put a girl in a position where it seemed like she was chasing after him to marry.
This guy, true to form, cluelessly replied, “I wasn’t overthinking it, I’ve always seen you as a good friend!”
Wang Xiaoya’s brows tightened, and her lips pursed in frustration.
She stood up, dropped a line, “I’m going to work, enjoy your apple, and don’t choke on it!”
Seeing her expression, Long Fei was at a loss about which of his words had offended her.
He told Wang Xiaoya to take care on her way, but she didn’t respond and left angrily, muttering under her breath, “Big blockhead, so dumb!”
