Chapter 213
Mr. Gao ascended straight to the twenty-seventh floor. Yang Chen had lost count of how many security guards he had left behind or kicked down. So were even custors' bodyguards, all of whom were ruthlessly beaten by Yang Chen without any hesitation.
The twenty-seventh floor housed the executive suites. The corridor was deserted, but the chaos downstairs had already reached here, and many private bodyguards stood guard at the doors of the suites, maintaining strict vigilance.
Amidst the vigilant gaze of the bodyguards, Yang Chen quickly found the second-to-last suite nad "Knight." Standing at the door were two burly, unfriendly-looking bodyguards.
This ti, Yang Chen couldn't be bothered to waste words. Without waiting for the two bodyguards to question him, he delivered a punch to each of them. The speed of his punches was beyond what the two guards could estimate, let alone resist. They imdiately collapsed to the ground, clutching their stomachs in pain.
"Bang!"
Yang Chen kicked the exquisitely locked security door. The electronic lock triggered the alarm system, but the sharp sound seed feeble and pale.
The situation inside the suite imdiately caught his eye. Sitting beside the bright desk lamp by the window were two people. One was Lin Ruoxi, wearing a sowhat bewildered expression, and the other was a middle-aged man dressed in a purple suit.
The middle-aged man had neatly combed black hair pulled back, with faint signs of age spots on his face, indicating he was older than he appeared. Seeing Yang Chen barging in, the man remained seated, frowning.
At that mont, two burly bodyguards rushed out from another room, nervously blocking Yang Chen's path.
Lin Ruoxi finally recognized the man who burst in like a bandit as Yang Chen. Seeing Yang Chen's disheveled appearance from the fight and running, coupled with the fact that he was covered in sweat and even had so blood on him, standing at the door like a street thug or soone who had just been in a brawl, Lin Ruoxi couldn't suppress her anger any longer. She stood up abruptly and questioned, "Yang Chen! What are you doing?!"
"What kind of person are you?" the man in the purple suit asked in a deep voice, ignoring Yang Chen.
Ignoring him, Yang Chen carefully looked at Lin Ruoxi. Seeing that she was only a bit frightened but otherwise unhard, he felt sowhat relieved.
Seeing Yang Chen smiling faintly at her, Lin Ruoxi couldn't hold back her frustration any longer. She stood up abruptly, her tone filled with annoyance, and demanded, "Yang Chen! What's the aning of this?!"
"Miss Lin knows this man?" the man in the purple suit frowned and asked.
Lin Ruoxi, feeling a headache coming on, rubbed her forehead and turned around, apologizing slightly, "Mr. Gao, I'm sorry for causing you trouble."
"Miss Lin, this young man seems to care a lot about you. Is he..." Mr. Gao glanced at Lin Ruoxi, then at Yang Chen, who was still standing foolishly at the door.
Lin Ruoxi paused, glanced at Yang Chen, who was still standing at the door with a silly grin, and sighed softly, saying, "He's an employee of my company. I don't know why he suddenly went berserk like this."
"Employee? Gone crazy?" Yang Chen's smile turned sowhat bitter, but he didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, it had been almost four hours since Lin Ruoxi arrived here. Seeing her safe and sound, Yang Chen felt relieved.
As for Lin Ruoxi's evaluation of him, he didn't care too much for the ti being.
Mr. Gao looked sowhat surprised, raising an eyebrow as he said, "Miss Lin, tonight I ca to Central Sea at the last minute out of respect for the friendship with the forr CEO, to inform you of the cooperation with the Faber Group of Varia. I disregarded the other major companies in Yan Du and ca to you first. The behavior of this employee of yours saddens deeply. I can't imagine why a large company like Yu Lei International would have such an employee."
"Mr. Gao, let apologize on his behalf. He's not usually like this. I don't know why he's acting like this today," Lin Ruoxi's thoughts were in disarray. What was this man thinking?! How could he suddenly co back without a word?! Fine, if he wanted to co back, let him, but why did he barge in like this while she was in a business eting? Did he cause all the alarms and chaos downstairs?! My god, what kind of person was he? Did he just storm the entire building by himself?! Did he co back just to kick the door open and stand there silently grinning in front of her?!
Just then, two policen appeared at the door, shouting "Don't move!" and aiming their guns at Yang Chen from behind!
Lin Ruoxi widened her beautiful eyes in disbelief. Couldn't believe this guy had even attracted the attention of the police?!
A graceful female officer walked in through the door. Under her black short hair, her pretty face was filled with anger. It was late, and causing such a commotion on duty would irritate anyone.
"Let see who the hell is causing such a ruckus," the policewoman said as she walked to the front. But when she saw Yang Chen, she froze on the spot.
"Director Cai, you're here pretty quickly," Yang Chen withdrew his gaze and said to Cai Yan with a smile.
Since that terrifying night in the building, Cai Yan hadn't seen Yang Chen again. But these days, she kept recalling scenes from that night for so reason. Especially Yang Chen pushing her away and rushing up to confront those thugs alone. It always made Cai Yan want to go to Yang Chen's house to check on him. This made Cai Yan feel tornted.
Now, seeing Yang Chen in such an awkward situation, she realized it was him! She was here to arrest him!
"Yan Yan," Lin Ruoxi saw that the person who ca was Cai Yan, and felt a bit relieved. She walked up and said, "Can you find a way to let him go? He seems to have gone crazy today. For the sake of my face, can you let him off? I'll compensate for any damages and other expenses."
"Ruoxi, you're here too?" Cai Yan was sowhat surprised, but thinking that they were husband and wife, she felt a bit sour. Although she didn't know why Yang Chen did this, Cai Yan agreed with Lin Ruoxi's approach. She couldn't bring herself to arrest Yang Chen, who had always been cold and impartial, now suddenly felt unable to act.
However, Mr. Gao, who stood up from his seat, seed determined not to let Yang Chen off the hook so easily. He straightened his distinctive purple suit and said, "Officer, my na is Gao, I'm from the Singapore Business Council. I am extrely dissatisfied with this man's sudden intrusion. His actions have seriously jeopardized my personal safety and he is suspected of stealing trade secrets. I hope you can arrest him according to the law. The law should uphold justice."
"This..." Cai Yan frowned. She hadn't expected such a prominent figure to be in the room.
Lin Ruoxi felt a bit anxious when she heard that Mr. Gao insisted on sending Yang Chen to trial. "Mr. Gao, he definitely didn't intend to harm you, nor would he steal trade secrets. Please trust and let handle this, okay?"
"Miss Lin, I hope you understand that tonight, when I landed at Central Sea Airport, it was not just to have a simple al and chat. I sincerely hope that your company can beco our partner and join hands with internationally renowned companies. I ca here with sincerity, but received such treatnt. I cannot cheapen my reputation!" Mr. Gao said indignantly.
"Clap, clap, clap..."
After Mr. Gao finished speaking, Yang Chen suddenly clapped his hands with a smirk. "Well said, we shouldn't cheapen our reputation."
"What? Mr. Intruder, do you think I'm wrong?" Mr. Gao frowned and asked, his eyebrows furrowing.
"Yang Chen, just shut up! Do you think things aren't chaotic enough?!" Lin Ruoxi was about to go crazy. Although this guy was despicable, she couldn't just watch him go to jail!
Whether it was endangering the safety of mbers of the Singapore Business Council, breaking into Central Sea's largest financial club at night, or attempting to steal trade secrets, any of these charges would be enough to land Yang Chen in trouble!
Yang Chen smiled knowingly and suddenly turned to Cai Yan. "Director Cai, can I trouble you to inspect this room?"
"Inspect the room?" Cai Yan's heart was filled with anxiety. Yang Chen's words left her puzzled.
"Yes, with your professional knowledge and skills, inspect the television, bedside lamp, and curtains," Yang Chen said.
As soon as he said this, Cai Yan seed to understand sothing. She nodded solemnly, while Mr. Gao opposite her gradually paled.
Lin Ruoxi didn't know what Yang Chen was up to, but seeing Cai Yan's serious expression, she guessed that there might be sothing going on. She patiently stood there and watched Cai Yan go to inspect the bedroom.
"It's ridiculous that the police are actually listening to the criminal. It seems I have no reason to stay here. Let's go!" Mr. Gao seed impatient, snorting angrily, and intending to leave with the two bodyguards.
"Stop them!"
Cai Yan suddenly commanded the two policen in a stern voice to stand at the door, aiming their guns at Mr. Gao and his two companions.
"What are you doing?! Do you know who I am?! I'm Gao Guoxiong! The Secretary-General of the Singapore Business Council! Even the mayor would show respect! How dare you stop ?!" Mr. Gao yelled angrily.
Cai Yan walked up to Mr. Gao with a cold smile. "Who you are doesn't matter, but as you said, the law should uphold justice, and what I have here is your justice!"
With that, Cai Yan opened her palm, and inside her fair palm were three miniature caras used for covert recording!
"You're slandering ! Those things aren't mine!" Mr. Gao erupted, cursing loudly.
"Tsk tsk," Yang Chen shook his head and sighed, "Nobody was even talking about you, yet you're so worked up. It's a pity, this trick of yours, I learned it before I even grew a mustache."
The sudden change in the situation made Lin Ruoxi, who hadn't fully understood what was going on, suddenly wake up to reality. What exactly was going on here?
Lin Ruoxi's face turned as cold as ice. Just a mont ago, she had been begging Mr. Gao on Yang Chen's behalf, but the truly despicable one turned out to be the person she was begging to! She felt a strong sense of humiliation.
"Gao Guoxiong, I'll see you in court!"
Lin Ruoxi didn't want to stay for another mont. She turned around and quickly ran out of the room, even forgetting to take the bag she had brought with her from the table.
Yang Chen walked to the table and picked up Lin Ruoxi's bag. He then turned to Cai Yan, who looked unsure of what to do, and said, "If I'm not mistaken, there might be so hallucinogens or sothing similar on his person or in the beverages in the room. The rest should be easy to handle. Director Cai, I'll leave it to you."
"Got it. You should go check on Ruoxi. She's always been strong-willed since she was a child. She must be feeling really upset after being deceived by that jerk. I'll have so of my team accompany you down so no one will stop you," Cai Yan said with a bitter smile.
Yang Chen nodded. With a police officer accompanying him, he quickly left the room. As for what would beco of Gao Guoxiong, it was no longer his concern.
