The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard
Chapter 178

Chapter 178: Chapter 178

Three assassination squads methodically advanced according to their original plan. These people were all from the Liu Family, following the boss’s orders to create as much chaos here as possible, preferably killing one or two people.

The silent night, the first wave of the squad suddenly stopped, six people stood there as if frozen by a spell.

"Is this... a monster?"

A giant gorilla, a head taller than them, stood in front, its massive silhouette enveloped by the night, intimidating enough to shake one to the core.

Zhang Daniu laughed, a grim smile, his teeth eerily white due to the moon’s reflection in the darkness.

"Uh!"

"Crack!"

"Thud!"

"Ah!!!!!"

...

The huge body did not lose its agility, limbs packed with explosive power flailed wildly in the dark, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, killing at will.

One against six, sweeping through them like a whirlwind, as domineering as a tiger!

Zhang Houtu wiped the sweat from his forehead, this guy was truly extraordinary. Although his methods were unorthodox, his movements were smooth and efficient. If trained in the army, he could at least qualify as a commander of the Sharp Blade Camp. Hmm? Haha, this guy.

Through the scope, Zhang Daniu was waving at him, his naive smile chillingly unnerving.

Ye Tian originally had no intention of telling Zheng Xinru and the other ladies about last night’s incident at the Fengyu Lake villa. But the mysteriously appeared corpse left him in a dilemma.

This person, he recognized; it was Liu Hao, that foolish rich heir he had seen at the Jade Market. But why was he here?

The fatal wound was on the carotid artery at the neck, the shape of the wound suggested it was inflicted by a needle-like weapon. Ye Tian crouched down to inspect it but couldn’t make sense of it. He was immensely grateful for Liu Liyue’s surprising intervention. It was shameless to ambush someone like this, though he seemed to have forgotten that he himself had people control Dong Cheng’s family in Jiangsu.

Ye Tian pulled out his phone and called Pig Hu, "Old Hu, you didn’t make it hard for them, did you?"

"Make it hard my ass! Am I the kind of person who would trouble women and children?"

"Ha ha ha, that’s good. When they are leaving the country, give them some more money. It’s not easy being widows and orphans. Oh, take the money from my card."

"Nonsense, you don’t need to tell me that!"

Watching Ye Tian make the call, Xu Qingyang was perplexed for the second time. The basic rule of the underworld is to remove the roots when cutting the grass. Being kind-hearted can lead to being bullied. Showing mercy in this matter might spell big trouble later, not to mention the constant fear of revenge, which itself is stressful. Many people, including himself, believe in killing everyone involved for peace of mind. Yet here was Ye Tian, not only sparing lives but also giving them money and aiding their escape abroad. His brain must be broken.

After the call, Ye Tian stood up, looked at Zhang Daniu and said, smiling, "Big Bull, I really owe you one. Without you, our family might have truly been wiped out."

Zhang Daniu scratched his head and grinned, "Why be so polite? It’s just my job, nothing else I can do."

"In my eyes, everyone here is my brother. No need to talk about who works for whom, we’re all in this together. If a brother helps me, I, Ye Tian, will remember it for life."

You could tell Zhang Daniu was not eloquent. After hearing Ye Tian’s words, he just grinned without knowing what to say. Ye Tian didn’t mind and turned to Zheng Xinru’s adopted brother, instructing, "Take care of the body, but pay special attention to this one. Arrange for a few people to take it to the crematorium this afternoon and cremate it as soon as possible, understand?"

"Brother Tian, but this is..."

Ye Tian squinted, suddenly sporting a menacing look, which terrified the two young brothers opposite, "Yes, yes, got it, Brother Tian."

Xu Qingyang accompanied Ye Tian out of the villa.

Zheng Xinru wasn’t here, currently only Lin Jingran and Chen Xing were residing here. Ye Tian didn’t have much to say to these two, and rather than engaging in irrelevant small talk, he preferred to return to his own place for some rest.

The lake helped moderate the temperature, which was quite pleasant, though a bit damp, making Ye Tian somewhat concerned.

In sight was a bamboo fence gate. He wondered how Tang Su, a woman, managed to set all this up by herself – cutting bamboo poles and assembling the fence were no small tasks. Thinking of Tang Su sweating alone while working made Ye Tian’s heartache. He had lured her away from her home, yet couldn’t provide a decent life, which would weigh on any man.

"Should I come in?"

"What do you think?" Ye Tian waved his hand dismissively at Xu Qingyang behind him. Xu Qingyang rolled his eyes and walked to a nearby forest, leaping, flipping, and hanging upside down on a thick tree branch.

Ye Tian nodded appreciatively. Good, still able to roll her eyes, at least she’s not indifferent about everything; that’s progress. He wouldn’t want to be surrounded all the time by someone just mechanically adept at killing.

He gently pushed open the bamboo gate and approached the solid wooden door with vertical patterns. Rubbing his somewhat numb face, Ye Tian washed his face by the lake earlier, as he was concerned about not looking fresh after staying up all night.

"Ding-dong-ding-dong."

"Who is it?"

Ye Tian smiled silently. There were no cat eyes on the door - Tang Su had specifically requested that, feeling as if someone was spying on her through them.

"I’m back."

"Hmm, back. Cooking."

"Mmm."

After pushing open the door, there was no shriek of surprise, no furious and passionate kiss. Tang Su was neither a seventeen-eighteen-year-old girl who fancied romance nor a passionate mature woman; she was just a quiet young woman quietly awaiting love, awaiting a wedding.

Tang Su stood inside the door, Ye Tian stood outside, the taller man, the shorter woman, just stood there, silently smiling at each other. It seemed enough, even if they had to gaze silently like this for a lifetime, it would still be the greatest gift from God.

"Silly! Come in."

Seeing Xu Qingyang hanging upside down on the tree trunk and staring straight at her, Tang Su felt a burst of shyness, blushing, she tugged Ye Tian’s sleeve and walked inside without looking back.
