Chapter 339 Covet 9
This sounds like the other party is a bit reluctant.
Most people would probably feel embarrassed, and perhaps even back off, saying, "Let's just forget it."
But I don't feel anything when listening to the bridge.
She swung her calves, glanced at the person opposite her from time to time to admire her beauty, and occasionally looked at the door of the box, hoping that the food would be served soon.
Acted very comfortable from beginning to end.
After all - it wasn't her who was forcing herself, so why should she feel embarrassed?
She has been this way since she was born, and has never thought of changing.
Who made her the most powerful among the vampires? Even in her larval stage, she had never been defeated, and she could even protect some vampires who were also in their larval stage.
Previously, one of her fellow tribesmen was very unhappy with her reckless attitude. After she started fighting, that fellow just kept avoiding her and no longer planned to fight her...
Therefore, she only cares about whether she has a good time and how she feels.
.
After a while, the dishes were served one after another.
Tingqiao first scooped herself a bowl of clam soup. The soup looked delicious and she thought it would suit her taste. It was indeed the case after she tasted it.
The food was delicious, so her mood was visibly good.
Lan Qi didn't say anything, but his expression looked a little bad.
It seems like you are looking a little weird and aggrieved?
For a moment, the box became extremely quiet.
Lan Qi stared coldly at the woman opposite him. He felt that he had been fooled.
It was clearly her who proposed to be his bodyguard. After he agreed, shouldn't she show her happiness and thank him?
But now I am facing these foods...
But his mind soon changed.
He thought that she wanted to keep the initiative in her hands and deliberately did not show her inner joy to him... Now she was probably unable to control herself and transferred her joy to the food.
Lan Qi, who had figured it out, lowered his eyes silently and followed her quietly to scoop a bowl of clam soup.
After eating two bites, Tingqiao asked him, "Do you get paid?"
Only those who get paid can be considered bodyguards.
Otherwise it would just be playing house.
Wait... Tingqiao suddenly hesitated.
Since she had already promised Lin Ji that she would ensure Lan Xi's safety for the rest of his life, wouldn't it be a bit... not so good to charge for being a bodyguard now?
Lan Qi raised his eyes, his expression indifferent, "Yes, I will pay you according to the standard of ordinary bodyguards."
The premise is that she'd better be a "bodyguard" instead of using the name of a bodyguard to treat him...
Tingqiao felt that she was not an ordinary bodyguard. She could knock down several ordinary bodyguards with one punch, and the person she had to deal with was not a human being.
You can't just say to him, "Okay, I'll be a good bodyguard!"
As for the money he earned as a bodyguard, I'll find a chance to return it to him later.
Tingqiao couldn't wait to start his job.
Lan Qi saw it all but said nothing.
She really wanted to get in touch with him.
.
"...She will be my bodyguard from now on..."
Zhou Jueming was confused.
Why did Lan Qi have an extra bodyguard after he came back from a meal?
And it looks familiar?
"Wow, isn't this the—"
Zhou Jueming almost couldn't help but utter a sound, but he quickly reacted and shut up.
But the thoughts in my mind never stopped.
Zhou Jueming had seen photos of Tingqiao, so he recognized the person at this time.
Therefore, she was even more puzzled... Why did Lan Qi bring her to the company? They seemed to have just had dinner together? What was going on?
Lan Qi had already sensed that this would surprise Zhou Jueming, "Arrange an office for her."
Although Zhou Jueming really wanted to clarify the situation, as a qualified assistant he had to deal with his boss's request first.
Some time ago, several secretaries were dismissed due to business disputes and there happened to be a vacancy in the office, so Zhou Jueming took Tingqiao to one of the offices.
As for what he needed...what did a bodyguard need to sit in an office? Zhou Jueming couldn't think of it.
After all, it's strange to give a bodyguard an office, right? However, as an assistant, he did not point out the problem on the spot, but gave priority to execution.
"Aren't bodyguards supposed to stay with their employers?" Tingqiao didn't understand.
Zhou Jueming glanced at her carefully, then quickly retracted his gaze. "In a normal situation like this, like in the company, you don't really need a bodyguard... If President Lan has something to do, she will call the internal line."
In fact, usually the security guard is asked to come up and ask the person to leave.
He is only accompanied by bodyguards when he attends some important events.
Tingqiao suddenly felt a little disappointed: "...Oh."
After telling Tingqiao the things that needed attention in the company, Zhou Jueming left immediately.
He was really curious about the matter of recruiting bodyguards and wanted to find Lan Qi to ask what was going on.
Tingqiao, who was alone in the office, sat on the office chair with his chin in his hand with lifeless eyes, looking bored.
She also felt that the current situation was not right.
This is not the same as the bodyguard life she imagined!
Shouldn't he be wearing sunglasses, always alert to whether there is anyone shooting at him from behind, and ready to pounce on his employer at any time?
This is not fun at all!
Tingqiao simply leaned his head back, leaned against the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and seemed to be wilting.
Was she deceived by the TV series?
So angry.
She suddenly wanted to resign.
.
As soon as he entered Lan Qi's office, Zhou Jueming stared at him with a very serious look.
Lan Qi had to stop working, "…what's the matter?"
As a friend, Zhou Jueming didn't care about working hours or workplaces at this time. "I'm just trying to see if you were accidentally drugged."
bodyguard?
It sounds weird!
It would be better to say that he brought his girlfriend to work... Well, okay, this is even more wrong, after all, that woman was with Lin Ji.
Given Lan Xi’s dislike for Lin Ji...wait a minute!
Zhou Jueming suddenly had an outrageous idea - could it be that he was with that woman in order to avenge the death of Lin Ji, and to prove that he was better than Lin Ji... ?
Lan Qi knocked on the table and said calmly, "Don't think too much. I don't have any thoughts about her. I just gave her shelter for a while out of sympathy... If it were someone else, I would do the same."
He explained the recent situation of Xia Ting Bridge.
Zhou Jueming hesitated to speak, "You... are quite kind."
He felt that this reason was a bit far-fetched.
Why be a bodyguard? People don't believe it.
Didn’t Lan Qi notice anything was wrong?
Lin Ji has many old friends with whom he has close ties. The woman could have gone to them for help instead of looking for his son who has no close relationship with Lin Ji.
There must be a conspiracy here.
or Lan Qi has actually discovered it, but now is not the time to reveal it?
Or……
He wanted to ask a few more questions, but Lan Qi turned a document and pushed it to the front of his desk. "Let's make an appointment with the people from Mankin Company to discuss cooperation on new energy. The time is set for the 17th. Before that, check Mankin's scattered shares..."
Okay, let’s get to work.
Zhou Jueming still had some confidence in Lan Xi. Lan Xi had been pursued by beautiful girls in college, but he was completely indifferent to romance and was obsessed with making money.
So it's impossible that Lan Qi is so enchanted by beauty that she forgets everything else, right? This sounds even more outrageous.
After Zhou Jueming left the office, Lan Qi did not start the next stage of work immediately, but stared in one direction in a daze.
She should be clear now that even if she becomes the bodyguard, he will not give her many opportunities to contact him.
But... she doesn't seem to have much sense of shame, and I'm afraid she won't back down when faced with difficulties.
Thinking of this, Lan Qi let out a helpless "tsk".
