"Sister Hong, I'm fine," Bai Ruge said to the concerned-looking Sister Hong.
Sister Hong breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a face full of anger, "These criminals are just too rampant, daring to shoot in broad daylight, they deserve to die!! From tomorrow, I will talk to the Chairman, to increase the security around the company several folds. Such an incident must never happen again."
Bai Ruge, obviously a bit frightened, nodded in agreent.
Liu Wentian was no longer joking, his expression serious, "Now even snipers are involved. Obviously, soone is trying to kill you. Do you understand who it might be??"
Bai Ruge shook her head in distress, "I really don't understand who it could be. Logically, I shouldn't have any deep hatred with anyone."
Liu Wentian continued, "That may not be true. So people might hate you without your knowledge. Perhaps you think you haven't offended anyone, but with the Feige Group growing to its current size, it's impossible not to have had conflicts with others. You need to realize that business is like a battlefield. Plus, you are considered a charm queen in the film industry, don't underestimate how many people are jealous."
Zhao Hong nodded deeply in agreent, "Mr. Liu is right. But the most troubleso part is, until now we haven't found even a trace, we really don't know who wants to harm Ruge."
Liu Wentian thought for a mont then asked, "When did these attacks on Miss Bai start??"
Zhao Hong replied, "The first ti was at the company's entrance when suddenly a woman rushed over and threw sulfuric acid at Ruge, the second was a near car accident after you healed Ruge's face, and the third was this sniper. The sulfuric acid incident occurred just a week ago."
Liu Wentian was puzzled, "That's kind of strange. If Ruguo said the sulfuric acid was also orchestrated by soone behind the scenes, then it ans initially they just intended to disfigure Miss Bai, but starting from the second incident, it escalated to attempts on her life.
It seems like healing Miss Bai's face instead angered that person. Where is this woman who threw the sulfuric acid? I want to see her, I have ways to get the information I want from her."
Zhao Hong gave a wry smile, "That woman died in prison."
"Died in prison??" Liu Wentian was taken aback, "That makes things more complicated. It looks like we can only take it one step at a ti."
After a while, Liu Wentian received a call from Xu Gang, who said that in the room Liu ntioned, nothing was found, not a single trace, the room was basically uninhabited.
After hanging up the call, Liu Wentian's face showed a serious expression. If the enemy could clean all traces in such a short period of ti, it indicated a professional sniper.
Half an hour later, the car drove into a manor.
The manor, with its distinct European style, was vast, with a large villa at the center. The villa was surrounded by well-maintained greenery, full of flowers and trees. Liu Wentian could sense that there were at least twenty skilled people hiding in the shadows within the estate. No wonder Zhao Hong said that Ruge didn't need his protection when she was at ho.
The villa, built of marble, had towering spires, round archways, large windows, and walls carved with flower patterns, made it look like a century-old castle.
Living in such a manor, undoubtedly, Bai Ruge was no different from a real princess.
The Audi stopped in front of the villa, Liu Wentian got out of the car and said to Bai Ruge, "Now that you're ho, I'll be leaving."
"Ah?? Are you leaving already??"
Bai Ruge clearly didn't expect Liu Wentian to leave so abruptly and hastily asked, "Don't go, can you stay with tonight??"
Zhao Hong, who had just got out of the car, nearly stumbled and fell upon hearing Bai Ruge's words, staring at her in astonishnt.
This young lady, when did she beco so enthusiastic towards a bodyguard, even inviting him to stay over.
Liu Wentian was also startled, thinking to himself, it couldn't be, did he just save this girl, and now she was going to repay him with her body tonight??
So direct?? So, was he supposed to accept or reject??
Bai Ruguo also realized that what she had just said might have co across as inappropriate, her pretty face blushing, "I... I ant you can stay at my place tonight to protect , just protection, in separate rooms, please don't get the wrong idea."
Liu Wentian muttered to himself, thinking there was no such good deal. Not to ntion, holding this woman in his arms, she felt soft and boneless, with curves in all the right places, the experience was really quite pleasant.
Although he had inherited Sheng Tianzhan's legacy, experiencing Sheng Tianzhan's hundred-year life in a dream as both an observer and a participant, in theory, his various experiences should have been quite rich.
However, Sheng Tianzhan was a true martial fanatic, showing no interest in won, so one could say that from body to soul, Liu Wentian was completely inexperienced...
No matter what kind of enemy he faced, he could handle it with ease, but when it ca to understanding won, he was sowhat lacking in experience.
If Ruguo were a seasoned player right now, then it wouldn't be hard to detect a hint of girlish shyness in Bai Ruguo's voice.
Liu Wentian thought he still needed to perform acupuncture on Zi Qing tonight, so he began to decline, saying, "We had agreed that you don't need my protection when you're at ho. Besides, it seems quite safe here, I should head back ho, I have other things to do."
"You... pervert, if you don't want to, just forget it!!"
Bai Ruguo was very annoyed, thinking he really had no sense of romance. What did he an by 'we had an agreent'? Did everything have to be done by the book? Was accompanying a great beauty like herself really that much of a burden??
In her annoyance, she tried to kick Liu Wentian's shin, but he swiftly dodged.
"Ah, that hurts!!"
Having missed Liu Wentian, she herself grimaced in pain, her face on the verge of tears.
"Hey, did you just twist your ankle??"
Liu Wentian glanced at Bai Ruguo's sowhat unnatural ankle. Although he was asking, his sharp eyesight had already confird that she had twisted her ankle.
"Mind your own business!!"
Having her kick dodged, Bai Ruguo felt even more irritated; this guy really lacked any sense of fun, she huffed indignantly and limped towards the villa, her face showing a touch of grievance.
Since childhood, she had always been treated like a princess; any man she talked to would appear overwheld by the honor.
Yet Liu Wentian treated her as if she were just an ordinary woman, not at all cherishing her delicate emotions, and it really hit her self-esteem quite hard.
Liu Wentian hadn't expected her reaction to be so intense and was montarily taken aback.
At this point, Zhao Hong looked sowhat peculiar and said, "Mr. Liu, you're really quite clueless about romance. Ruguo is after all a girl, can't you just indulge her a little??"
Zhao Hong was speechless inside; was this guy a fool?? Or did he actually prefer n, was he gay??
If it were any other man, hearing Bai Ruguo's request for personal protection, they would probably run over from miles away, with a grin so wide they couldn't close their mouths, but Liu Wentian looked like an employee being squeezed by a nefarious boss, clearly unhappy.
