The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard
Chapter 227

Chapter 227: 227

In a peaceful world, hiring a fresh college graduate or even a primary school student would pose no issues. Who dares to stir trouble under Tai Sui’s watch? With that thought, Ye Tian began to question whether Chu Tianyi was as formidable as he had imagined. If she’s just a vase, it might be better to send her packing. In business, amicability leads to prosperity, and admitting one’s mistakes is common. Which businessman would stubbornly argue with a customer, standing their ground like her?

The tussle between Chu Tianyi and the man in the white shirt escalated gradually. Maybe it was the first time the man in the white shirt had encountered a girl like Chu Tianyi, who refused to back down at all costs. In front of the public, his male pride began to surface, along with a burning rage, and his palm raised into the air.

"Friend, let’s stop here."

The palm hovered in the air, never landing. Chu Tianyi’s eyesight wasn’t poor; she instantly recognized the man to be the trusted boss of this place, Ye Tian.

The man in the white shirt turned around and saw Ye Tian standing behind him, his hand still holding onto another. Gritting his teeth in frustration, he knew his action was pointless.

"Let it go? Who do you think you are!"

Ye Tian released his grip, allowing the young man to withdraw his hand and rub his wrist, realizing that the man and woman in front of him were together.

Ye Tian saw Chu Tianyi unharmed, and with stubborn fire in her eyes, he felt slightly vexed. But then again, harming her wouldn’t be an easy task either.

It seemed the man in the white shirt wasn’t alone. Spotting the turn for the worse, two more men entered from behind the crowd, dressed in expensive and tasteful clothes—evidently from well-to-do families.

Ye Tian didn’t understand. Slow music venues were well-known in Tianhe City, even considered synonymous with Tianhe Entertainment, and troublemakers were rare here. The rich second generation and official second generation weren’t the arrogant fools people imagined. They were shrewder than ever, except for a few nouveau riche; nobody wanted to cause trouble in unfamiliar situations. Although Tianhe isn’t vast, it’s not to be underestimated. Even their elders tread carefully, so they had no reason to stir trouble in this land of hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Accidentally hitting a snag could spell disaster, not only for themselves but also for their families—it would be disgraceful either way.

Deep waters lie within.

"Brother, which turf are you from? Let’s get acquainted."

A man in a handmade Versace suit approached from behind, smiling amiably at Ye Tian. Handsome, charming, and wealthy. Many women’s eyes brightened at the sight, and in this venue, few were innocent, as were most of the men—scoundrels. Ye Tian lamented that decent people like himself were increasingly rare.

Such women usually harbored one wish: to one day catch a wealthy and stylish man. If he could provide for them, it would be a fantastic turn of fortune. For this dream, many would try their luck here daily. This place was a hunting ground for men and women’s so-called "Pseudo Paradise."

A slight detail did not escape notice: Ye Tian stood in front of Chu Tianyi, shielding half of her body, which was enough to annoy her.

She was not a damsel in distress, not at all. Ye Tian’s action made her feel belittled and angry. And yet, Ye Tian couldn’t care less about her almost antiquated sentiments—you’d think she wanted to be Hua Mulan.

"Hello, I’m the owner here, Ye Tian."

Ye Tian said with a warm smile, extending his right hand and bending down for a handshake, only to be brushed off by the man. His bending posture only invited scorn, and such yielding merely masked his weakness.

In contrast to the white shirt’s arrogance, the two men behind him were taken aback, exchanged glances, and subtly stepped back—a detail only Ye Tian caught.

"Kid, if you want to back down, show it properly. I don’t like the way you offer that handshake. Kneel down, call me ’grandpa’ three times, and we’ll call it even." The man in the white shirt spoke calmly, but the upward curl of his lips revealed his contemptible thoughts. The women around, who originally watched with interest, curled their lips in disdain. Modern women, while not innocent, had standards for clients. They disliked and even despised beasts who didn’t treat them like humans.

Ye Tian chuckled and stepped forward, completely shielding Chu Tianyi behind him, "Young master, isn’t this too much? How about this: I’ll cover all your drinks for tonight. You enjoy your meal and drinks, how does that sound?"

"Hmph, now you’re scared. Kid, many things don’t just stop because you want them to. Once it starts, there’s no turning back. Heard of ’no going back once work starts’? Wanting to be a hero, you’ve got to pick the right place. You’ve got no say here. If you can’t handle it, just stay put in the corner, don’t pop out and blabber. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died."

The arrogance of this man deserved punishment. His companions, who seemed likely to intervene, were deterred by Ye Tian’s glare and, after some hesitation and considering both Ye Tian and the still-hollering man in the white shirt, they withdrew from the crowd. They were merely associated with the man in the white shirt within certain circles; frankly, not even friends. There was no point offending an up-and-comer jointly backed by the Chen and Zuo families for his sake.

"So, you’re not planning to forgive me then?"

"Forgive my ass!"

The man in the white shirt had already eyed a bottle on the nearby bar. Grabbing it, he took large strides toward Ye Tian, the red liquid inside sloshing—this impact was definitely going to explode.
