Chapter 183 (It’s You, Zhang Dong!) Out of Control at the Sight of His Enemy
“Young master, which side are you on?” Luo Yang asked, looking at Chen Yuanxi half-smiling.
“Luo Yang, if you have the guts, you can drive the bulldozer over . If you dare not do this, shut up now! Don’t let our n take the bla for you!” Chen Yuanxi said in a harsh voice. Then he helped the dean into the room.
After an hour, Chen Yuanxi walked out slowly with a contract in his hand. He said, “Luo Yang, leave them a week to move out. If you would like to co back in seven days, I won’t stop you.”
Luo Yang was shocked. He could not believe that the nail-house holder, whom he had spent a long ti trying to persuade to move out, signed a contract with Chen Yuanxi after half an hour’s negotiation!
Luo Yang had always been arrogant, and the householders were either afraid of him or hated him, so at the beginning, they were in a mood of resistance, and they were not patient to read the files. Besides, Luo Yang’s n were aggressive, and they did not have the patience to clearly introduce to the householders the policies that were formal, well-developed, and supported by the governnt, so both sides reached an impasse. If they had negotiated with the householders patiently and peacefully, they could reach an agreent with them. Now because of this householder, the project had been delayed for a long ti.
Chen Yuanxi knew that the dean had worked for Lin Ziwei before. He was a man of integrity, and he would never comprise. However, he was not an unreasonable and stubborn person. Therefore, after walking into the room, Chen Yuanxi cald the dean down in the na of Lin Ziwei. He then patiently explained all the policies and the actual arrangent of the relocation to him. He also showed him the related regulations and laws on-site or looked them up for him, and called the related departnt to prove that what he said was true. With official docunts, good compensation for demolition, as well as Chen Yuanxi’s modest and patient attitude, soon the whole family of the dean agreed to move.
“Young master, did you increase the compensation a hundredfold?” Luo Yang laughed arrogantly. He was so surprised when he took the contract. Although the compensation was good, it was still within the prescribed limits.
“Since you’re not smart, you should study hard. What I hate the most is those who are more stupid than , but don’t study as hard as .” Chen Yuanxi sneered.
Luo Yang was annoyed. “No matter how capable you are, you have to follow Wanxin’s instructions. Don’t forget that you are just an acting deputy general manager!”
“Oh? Really?” Chen Yuanxi smiled slightly. Then his face suddenly darkened and he slapped Luo Yang in the face. “Luo Yang, tell if you’re a dog of our Chens?” He spoke loudly, and all the bodyguards could hear it clearly.
“Buddies, since you’re all n, you shouldn’t be led by a dog. You can go back now.” With that, Chen Yuanxi grinned at those bodyguards.
Luo Yang stood in front of Chen Yuanxi awkwardly. No matter how he answered now, he had already been humiliated.
In the Chens’ dostic company, aside from daring not to offend his imdiate supervisor, Mo Qian, and his equal, Zhang Dong, who was filled with strong killing intent, he did not take any outsiders who worked for the Chens seriously.
Chen Yuanxi had just co back from abroad and he had not set up his authority among the Chen family’s dostic business yet. “He hasn’t even gained a firm foothold in the family yet, but he already dared to slap ! Now Secretary Chen is reluctant to ddle in the Chen family’s business, and he is out for business recently. Even if sothing happens, like I hurt Chen Yuanxi by accident, Chen Wanxin and her mother will help keep things under control.” He was very confident that he could get help from Chen Wanxin and her mother for such trifles.
“It’s the right ti to make a move!” he thought.
“You all see that I hurt our young master by accident!” Luo Yang was extrely angry and he bared his ferocious features. He raised his palm and swung it at Chen Yuanxi with a little hesitation, trying to slap him. Chen Yuanxi stood firmly, looking mighty. Luo Yang was scared and he felt his palm a little cold, but driven by alcohol, he still waved his palm hard at Chen Yuanxi.
Chen Yuanxi saw a figure flashing in front of him. Then Luo Yang’s hands were grabbed from behind, and he fell onto the ground before rolling far away.
“Who? How dare you?” Luo Yang managed to stand up awkwardly, cursing. He had already been suppressed by Chen Yuanxi just now, but when he saw the person in front of him, his arrogance died out. Just like a flower that had blood in a second, his angry face imdiately turned to a smiling one.
“Mr. Zhang, what are you doing here?”
Chen Yuanxi looked at the man with his back to him. He was tall and strong. His green short-sleeved shirt was tucked into his camouflage pants, and his pants were tucked into his hard sport-boots. This was the standard attire for the Chens’ private bodyguards. When he looked carefully, Chen Yuanxi could not help gasping. He would recognize him even if this person had turned to ashes.
He did not feel pain, and he had neither love nor hate for this man. But he felt like he had swallowed a whole jar of mixed sauce. The sll was so strong that his tears almost stread down.
“Zhang Dong!” Chen Yuanxi called his na, gritting his teeth.
“I ca too late, Wenxi!” Zhang Dong turned and smiled generously.
At the thought of Zhang Dong’s back in the disgusting video and the miserable death of Zhao Mingjiang, Chen Yuanxi’s eyes blazed with hatred.
Zhang Dong understood how he felt. But even Zhang Dong himself could not explain many things.
Zhang Dong knew that after six years, he himself was no longer that soldier of integrity. Because his mother was threatened by his step-father, he had beco Mo Qian’s stooge. Fortunately, Mo Qian trusted him very much and promoted him quickly. So Zhang Dong beca his most capable subordinate.
“From now on, I, Zhang Dong, will be our young master’s bodyguard. I didn’t expect that the first ti I would fight for our young master would be to deal with our own man!” Zhang Dong sneered.
Luo Yang and his n shivered with fear at the indifferent words.
Zhang Dong was well-known in the company for his capability. Luo Yang was no match for him, and his n were frightened of him. Luo Yang had punished Zhang Dong before, so he was scared after Zhang Dong got promoted and was even superior to him. In recent years, he had wracked his brains to fra Zhang Dong, but Zhang Dong saw through all his tricks and avoided the crises. After that, Mo Qian and the Chens’ mbers trusted Zhang Dong more. In the past two years, Luo Yang only cared about his own business and did not ss with Zhang Dong again. And Zhang Dong had forgiven Luo Yang’s past misdeeds. Therefore, there was no conflict between them.
“I was just joking. Mr. Zhang, don’t take it seriously. Luo Yang smoothed out his clothes, smiling at Zhang Dong. Then he ran away with his n in the blink of an eye. Chen Yuanxi found that Luo Yang’s legs were trembling slightly just now.
“Get out!” Chen Yuanxi roared. He picked up a stick from the flower bed and threw it hard at Zhang Dong, as if he saw the most disgusting thing in the world.
Zhang Dong widened his eyes, looking at Chen Yuanxi quietly. He gritted his teeth, without uttering a single word, allowing the stick to land on his body.
“I know even if I told him the truth, it wouldn’t help. Anyway, I have no evidence. He won’t believe .”
Zhang Dong smiled bitterly.
The last ti Chen Yuanxi had seen Zhang Dong was in A City. After saving Chen Yuanxi, Zhang Dong told him that it was not him who had killed Zhao Mingjiang. Chen Yuanxi believed him. However, he had never expected that Zhang Dong would have done such a nasty thing. Because of that video, apart from his friends, Chen Yuanxi was looked down upon and abandoned by everyone at university. He felt as if he had suddenly fallen from heaven to hell. Everyone looked at him strangely. Even Zhao Yuan, although he still trusted him after the earthquake, was still a little suspicious, let alone the others. If not because of the video, his father would not have offended so many people in officialdom. If not because of the video, his father... Chen Yuanxi believed that maybe his father was still in despair over him before his death.
Chen Yuanxi’s hands were injured by the burrs on the wooden stick. His tidy clothes looked a little ssy, his leather shoes were covered with dust, and his trouser legs were wrinkled. Now he no longer looked neat and dignified as usual.
Zhang Dong had heard many people say how resolutely Lin Wenxi behaved and how strictly he ruled his staff. He was serious in speech and manner, and he ran the Chens’ overseas business well. If the dostic business had not been declining in the past few years, he would not have offered to co back to help run the family business. Zhang Dong was surprised that such a person would have lost his mind like this at this point.
“It has been about seven years!” Zhang Dong thought. “Another seven years have passed after we had parted for seven years. Now I’m already 29 years old. In the previous 15 years, we only had two-plus months to be together as friends. In the future, we won’t have such an opportunity again.”
“I will be your bodyguard in the future, so you have many opportunities to beat .” Zhang Dong grabbed the stick firmly and said gently, “Don’t hurt yourself. I heard that you had never show your happiness and anger on your face in so many years. What will you do if the others know your weakness?”
Chen Yuanxi imdiately cald down.
He had held back his anger and tried to have Zhang Dong go to the U.S. with him, so that he could make everything clear. But Mo Qian tried every ans to stop him from doing so. Obviously, he did not trust Zhang Dong. Now he asked Zhang Dong, the most capable bodyguard of the Chens, to protect him, so Chen Yuanxi believed that Zhang Dong must have done many dirty jobs for this family.
But Chen Yuanxi knew that Chen Tianjiao also thought in the sa way.
In the past years, Chen Tianjiao had taken great care of Chen Yuanxi. He worried that he might be hungry or unhappy to think of the past. He took him all over the U.S., invited the best teacher to give him lectures, created the best employnt conditions for him, and stopped every one of the Chens from getting him in trouble.
In the beginning, Chen Yuanxi thought that he was pretending to care about him, but later, he found out that Chen Tianjiao treated his only son well from his heart.
Since Luo Yang was so afraid of Zhang Dong, Chen Yuanxi could tell that Zhang Dong would be useful to him. He knew that he should let go of the hatred from years ago and get on well with him. However, although he had experienced a lot and was much more mature than before, he found himself suddenly out of control.
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll call the police to arrest you?” Chen Yuanxi asked coldly.
Zhang Dong took off his sunglasses, and Chen Yuanxi found there was a slight change in the area from his auricle to the eye and the bridge of his nose. Besides, Zhang Dong always wore sunglasses. Therefore, after six years, even he felt that Zhang Dong looked a little strange to him, let alone average people. No wonder Zhang Dong dared to strut up the street.
“Good for you!” Chen Yuanxi smiled. “But you are still not qualified to be my bodyguard!”
“Young master, tell your criteria,” Zhang Dong said confidently. But soon after, he stopped being spontaneous. The person in front of him was not Lin Wenxi from years ago, but his young master, whom he had to protect.
Chen Yuanxi shook his sleeve and walked away. Zhang Dong followed closely behind him.
