Super Soldier King and Cute CEO
Chapter 20 - 20 20 Laiya International

20: Chapter 20: Laiya International 20: Chapter 20: Laiya International At that time, other people on the street heard the commotion and gathered around, not knowing who was being beaten so terribly.

But when they got close and discovered the person was Xin Bao, their expressions all slightly changed, yet everyone felt extremely relieved in their hearts.

Xin Bao was indeed a notorious local thug on this street, not only was he oppressive, but he also extorted protection money from various businesses, making everyone’s life miserable.

Furthermore, this man’s morality was extremely corrupt, constantly dangling the will left to his sister-in-law by his deceased brother, threatening her to give him money.

Thus, many people wanted to deal with Xin Bao, but no one dared to take action, for it was said that Xin Bao had significant backing, so they could only tolerate his bullying.

But at this very moment, seeing Xin Bao beaten down, they felt an unusual admiration for the person who had done it.

Their gazes then fell on Tang Zhong standing at the entrance of NiuNiu Hotel, showing their appreciation.

At this moment, Xin Bao was in a sorry state, reeking of dirty water, foul-smelling, struggling to get up from the ground.

Hearing Tang Zhong telling him to scram, he suddenly burst into rage, “You…

you just wait, I am Brother Fei’s man, you will pay for hitting me!”

Tang Zhong said nothing, simply picked up a brick from the ground and walked towards Xin Bao.

Xin Bao, terrified, almost had his eyeballs popping out as he turned and ran.

Tripping, he fell to the ground and rolled several times, then quickly got up and ran away without looking back, in a panic.

Only after Xin Bao had left did the surrounding people dare to come forward, applauding and cheering.

A chubby aunt chuckled: “Young man, well done, that guy is no good at all!”

“Indeed, you have really helped us vent our anger!”

“Your skills are impressive, young man.

Are you here at NiuNiu Hotel looking for a place to stay?

Let me tell you, you can absolutely stay here, the lady boss and her daughter are down-to-earth people.

I’m the owner of the Fat-so Noodle Shop at the street corner, come eat noodles and I’ll give you a 20% discount!” A chubby chef-like person said.

…

This is Xuan Country for you, full of human touch!

Hearing these people speak, Tang Zhong chuckled, “Sure!”

Then he turned and entered NiuNiu Hotel!

Just at that moment, a faint voice came from behind him.

“Thank… thank you for helping me and my mom!” said Xin Xiaotong in a timid manner, no longer cheerful as before!

Tang Zhong turned around and saw Xin Xiaotong’s expression, smiling, “You’re welcome, I just can’t stand people like that.

Besides, you look better when you smile!”

Hearing Tang Zhong’s words, Xin Xiaotong’s nervous heart finally relaxed a bit, she said, “Uh… will you continue to stay here?”

“Of course, it’s only fifty-one a day, so cheap.

By the way, how much for a long-term stay?” Tang Zhong asked.

Xin Xiaotong’s eyes lit up, and she quickly replied, “Twelve hundred, but for you, one thousand!”

“Great, where should I pay?” Tang Zhong said, starting to reach into his pocket.

He pulled out ten Red Banknotes amounting to five thousand and handed them over.

Xin Xiaotong took them and hastily said, “Don’t rush, I’ll write you a receipt now!”

“No need, too much of a hassle, let’s just leave it at that!” Tang Zhong declined.

“Ah!” Xin Xiaotong, new to this kind of situation, was momentarily stunned.

“What are you spacing out for, take me to the room!” Tang Zhong laughed.

“Ah!” Xin Xiaotong then came to her senses and took the key from the counter, “Follow me!”

In NiuNiu Hotel, a three-story building, Tang Zhong’s room was on the second floor, specifically room 201.

Upon opening the door, the furnishings weren’t bad, at least Tang Zhong thought so.

There was a bed, a TV, a computer, and even a shower.

It was a small but fully functional and cozy looking place.

“Here we are!” Xin Xiaotong smiled, “Here’s the key!”

Tang Zhong took the key, looked around the room, and commented, “Not bad at all!”

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll go down now…” Xin Xiaotong said.

“Alright!” Tang Zhong nodded, wanting to rest.

He hadn’t had a good rest since returning to Xuan Country.

“Oh, be careful, my uncle has quite some clout around here, I’m afraid for you…” Xin Xiaotong nervously advised.

“Don’t worry!” Tang Zhong said with a slight smile.

“By the way, what’s your name?” Xin Xiaotong asked.

“Tang Zhong!”

“Oh, my name is Xin Xiaotong, nice to meet you!”

“Me too!”

Xin Xiaotong backed away, but just as she was closing the door behind her, her heart momentarily raced faster and images of Tang Zhong flooded her mind—how he had effortlessly knocked her deadbeat uncle to the ground.

If it weren’t for Tang Zhong, she really wouldn’t have known what to do.

Tang Zhong… such a nice name, and he wasn’t even that old… Huh, what’s gotten into me?

Why am I fantasizing like this!

I… I still need to apply to college!

She bit her lip tightly, preparing to head downstairs, but not before turning to steal one last glance at the door of Room 201.

Meanwhile, inside Room 201, Tang Zhong had already lain down on his bed, starting to contemplate his next steps.

After all, he had to find a job!

But where to start looking?

That was the biggest problem.

People say there’s more information on TV and online.

Tang Zhong got up and turned on the television.

The TV was a 32-inch LCD.

He found the remote, pressed it, and an image appeared on the screen.

Tang Zhong seldom watched television, dismissing it as mostly trivial content, but no matter the channel, they were all soap operas!

He had no choice but to turn on his computer.

He typed in a URL, then searched for job postings.

Suddenly, a string of job listings appeared.

Various positions such as salesperson were available, far too many to count, and there were also listings for construction workers, offering three thousand a month— low pay for hard work.

Next.

Tang Zhong wasn’t about to take on a losing job.

The years he spent working in Liga Continent were exhausting enough.

This annulled engagement was his chance for a break, the simpler, the better.

That was his only condition for work!

After all, there wasn’t a job he couldn’t handle easily.

Then, he continued to search by typing more keywords into the browser.

“The simplest, most relaxed jobs!”

When he pressed the enter key, a series of entries popped up.

Tang Zhong glanced through them briefly, seeing the first listing was for a beauty consultant and public relations assistant at L’Oréal International—was a beauty consultant meant to help people choose cosmetics?

And was a public relations assistant actually an assistant in public relations?

Tang Zhong didn’t understand, but the requirements looked demanding.

Degree from a prestigious university…

At least proficient in two languages…

And even the appearance had to pass muster!

Tang Zhong had a degree; the last time he visited a prestigious international university, the old headmaster had insisted on handing him a doctorate diploma from a top international school.

At the time, Tang had felt skeptical, but seeing the old man’s watery eyes, he accepted the doctorate, along with diplomas from other universities like Cambridge, the numbers of which Tang still remembered!

As for languages!

Tang Zhong felt this was hardly a challenge; he had studied over twenty languages, even mastering those spoken within tribes of Liga Continent.

About his looks passing muster?

Tang Zhong seemingly pulled a mirror out of nowhere, held it in front of him, and after sizing himself up, remarked, “This… I should rate as excellent, right?”

Then wasn’t this job tailored just for him?

And the salary was ten thousand a month!

That was what mattered most!

He didn’t feel like looking at any other jobs.

L’Oréal International it was—first thing tomorrow morning, he would go for the interview!

First, he needed to secure his position and then look for Jiangdong Group.

He refused to believe he couldn’t handle Jiangdong Group!

But just then, a noisy commotion erupted from downstairs, followed by wave after wave of shouting and cursing!

“Damn it, get yourself down here!”

“Shit, messing with my junior!”

Tang Zhong paused, hearing the noise.

Were they here already?
