69: Chapter 68, I’m obviously setting a trap for you!
Ren Hao gazed at the poised Shen Binnan sitting before him, her elegant demeanor during the meal particularly captivating, especially her luscious, inviting lips.
Ren Hao had been with many women, but he admitted to himself that he had never been with a woman like Shen Binnan before.
When he thought about the fact that she was his enemy’s daughter, the thrill of conquering her seemed unimaginably pleasurable.
Therefore, Ren Hao temporarily halted the assassination attempts on Shen Binnan by his subordinates from the Black Water Alliance.
He wanted to conquer her with his charm, believing that the sense of achievement would be greater than closing a big business deal.
Suddenly, Ren Hao picked up a piece of green vegetable and placed it on Shen Binnan’s plate.
This act made Shen Binnan stop what she was doing.
Ren Hao flashed what he believed to be his most handsome smile and said in an extremely magnetic voice, “It’s nutritious.”
Shen Binnan’s expression turned slightly colder, but she did not move.
Miss Shen is unhappy, she must be very unhappy!
Fang was right, this guy really harbors indecent intentions toward Miss Shen!”
This thought flashed rapidly in Ma Haigang’s mind as he noticed the change on Shen Binnan’s face.
He had been hesitating, but now he was decided.
“For Miss Shen, charge!” Ma Haigang suddenly shouted, breaking the silence of the quiet cafeteria.
The other security guards, hearing Ma Haigang’s command, instantly charged at Ren Hao.
Like fierce wolves, they seized Ren Hao before he could react.
The next moment, Ma Haigang was also upon him, shouting, “Move aside!
Let me teach this bastard a lesson!” Some guards stepped aside, and Ma Haigang went up to Ren Hao, slapping him several times across the face.
The entire cafeteria was utterly quiet, all eyes turned their way.
Shen Binnan was also extremely surprised by this sudden outburst and didn’t react, nor did she try to stop it.
Actually, the most confused of all was Ren Hao himself.
He was still trying to make sense of being restrained by several guards when Ma Haigang’s slaps to his face brought him back to reality.
“Who are you!” Ren Hao demanded, his immediate concern to understand the situation.
Ma Haigang, with a face full of smugness and a hint of malicious triumph, said, “Can’t you see who I am, are you blind?
I am the head of the security department at Longtu Group, Ma Haigang, hmph!”
Never before, never had he felt this way, observed by everyone, Ma Haigang felt like a real man at that moment!
“I am Ren Hao, I am…”
Before Ren Hao could finish, Ma Haigang suddenly slapped him across the face, saying, “Whatever you want to say, say it at the security department!
It was essential to act swiftly, to not give the other party a chance to speak, Ma Haigang clearly remembered this was what Fang Yi had told him.
Thus, under Ma Haigang’s orders, several security guards forcibly escorted Ren Hao toward the security department.
Then Ma Haigang turned to Shen Binnan with a sycophantic smile, expressing his concern exceedingly obsequiously, “Miss Shen, are you alright?”
Shen Binnan’s gaze was a bit strange as she replied, “I’m fine, but you might not be.”
Ma Haigang didn’t grasp the meaning of Shen Binnan’s words; he patted his chest boldly, saying, “Rest assured, Miss Shen.
As long as Ma Haigang is at the company for one more day, you won’t suffer any harm.”
Even the icy Shen Binnan couldn’t help but twitch at the corner of her mouth at the sight of the “simple” Ma Haigang, and she resignedly said, “Good, you did well.
I’ll give you a raise.”
At the mention of a ‘raise,’ Ma Haigang was immediately overjoyed and tearfully grateful.
After Ma Haigang had left, Shen Binnan looked at her plate—the meal seemed inedible now.
Her gaze searched the crowd and quickly found Fang Yi, who was eating with his head down.
She smiled and walked toward him.
“Miss Shen is coming over, Miss Shen is coming over, you better run,” Huo Xiaoxuan tapped Fang Yi’s plate with her chopsticks.
Fang Yi, puzzled, said, “Why should I run?
I’m not afraid of her.”
After pondering for a moment, Huo Xiaoxuan said, “That’s true, with how shameless you are, it’s normal not to be afraid.
But Peilan and I won’t keep you company.” She knew that it was Fang Yi who had egged Ma Haigang on, and then she pulled Zhou Peilan away with her, leaving the area.
Just after the two left, Shen Binnan came over and sat across from Fang Yi.
Fang Yi kept his head down as he ate seriously, as if he didn’t notice Shen Binnan sitting opposite him.
Shen Binnan’s fingers curled gracefully, lightly tapping the table with the back of her hand, she said, “You had the guts to do it, so why don’t you have the guts to face me?”
From beginning to end, I didn’t say a word, not even showing my face,” Fang Yi said this and then continued to eat seriously.
In reality, there was only greasy residue left on his plate, and he was still pretending to eat.
Shen Binnan said softly, “Do you dare to say that what Ma Haigang did had nothing to do with you?”
“Nothing at all!” Fang Yi immediately replied decisively, only a fool would admit it.
“But by doing this, you’ve really screwed Ma Haigang over,” Shen Binnan said.
Fang Yi pulled out a tissue to wipe his mouth and said, “I’m a very vindictive person.
Who else should I screw over if not him?
Besides, he wanted a raise, so I’m actually helping him out.”
Shen Binnan sighed and said, “Okay, let me ask you, do you know the consequences of what you’re doing?”
Fang Yi followed her line of questioning, puzzled, “What consequences?”
“You know very well.”
Shen Binnan stared into Fang Yi’s eyes and said, “You’ve pissed him off time and again, and it looks like there’s no chance of peace between him and me!
Ha, facing the head of the three juggernauts of Moon City, not to mention the more powerful Ren Group than Longtu Group, should I be thanking you?”
“Actually, it should be said that you pissed him off, not me.
Look inside your heart and ask yourself, would you be willing to be with a man like Ren Hao, and even marry and have kids with him?”
“Of course not!” Shen Binnan answered without any hesitation.
“There, you see?” Fang Yi spread his hands out and said, “I’m just your bodyguard, specifically to help you out of trouble, and everything I do is to ensure your safety, regardless of who the other party is.
I won’t be merciful.”
With a look of helplessness, Shen Binnan said, “But you’re really hurting me .”
For some reason, hearing Shen Binnan’s helpless voice made Fang Yi strangely soft-hearted.
He reached out his hands as if possessed by a ghost and grabbed one of Shen Binnan’s jade hands that lay on the table.
Shen Binnan was startled, and she was about to speak when she saw Fang Yi look at her deeply and say, “Don’t worry, with me here, it doesn’t matter if it’s the Ren Group or even the Emperor of Heaven, I’ll protect you.”
A warmth surged inside Shen Binnan, a flicker of panic flashed across her beautiful eyes, which vanished as quickly as it had appeared, and then she coldly said, “Let go.”
“Oh,” Fang Yi replied obediently.
Very obediently, he let go of her hand.
Shen Binnan stood up, ready to leave, but then paused and said, “In the future, ask me before you do anything, otherwise…”
“Otherwise what?” Fang Yi asked with a hint of a smile.
“…deduct your salary.” After uttering that threat, Shen Binnan turned and left.
Fang Yi muttered to himself softly, “Deduct my salary?
As if I care about that little bit of salary.
He seemed not to care at all and sat there, lighting up a cigarette.
He had just taken a few puffs when Ma Haigang, looking furious, stormed into the cafeteria, stood in front of Fang Yi with an electric baton in hand, glaring at him as if Fang Yi owed him money.
Even though the atmosphere was tense, Fang Yi still had a smile on his face, “Congratulations, Director Ma.”
Ma Haigang stared at him, silent for a moment before he said through gritted teeth, “You set me up?”
Fang Yi slapped his thigh and said, “Director Ma, listen to yourself.
I clearly set you up, indeed!”
