The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard
Chapter 268

Chapter 268: 268

Zhang Houtu stared at him, his eyes full of indifference, "If you dare to touch a hair on Tang Su’s head, I will take your life."

"And me."

Liu Liyue’s pace with the crescent blade in her hand quickened a lot, and the coldness in her eyes intensified. No one had ever dared to threaten the president of the Northern Commerce Association before, never. Those who had tried were already in Hell.

Three people confronted each other at the doorway, backed by a silver Aston Martin.

It was only when the crescent blade in her hand stopped that the killing aura around the woman eased a bit, "Just a casual chat, if you’re worried, you can come in too."

Zhang Houtu and another person did follow her inside, which nearly provoked Liu Liyue into murderous thoughts. Xu Qingyang was not about to provoke this troublesome situation. He didn’t consider himself a match for Zhang Daniu, and if even he got killed, he would immediately flee. Being a natural skeptic, he never missed any slim chance of escape.

The yard was very quiet, with the withered yellow lotus leaves by the small pond illuminated by the light shining through the window, looking even more decayed.

"It’s nothing much."

That was the first thing Liu Liyue said upon entering the yard, whether she was referring to the yard itself or the people residing in it was unknown.

"This place doesn’t need your judgment."

Zhang Houtu said ungraciously. Zhang Daniu nodded in agreement. Liu Liyue did not expect these two men to actually speak so boldly against her. She looked back at their imposing figures, feeling both curious and amused.

Liu Liyue walked straight into the house. The hall was spacious and empty. In the room to the left, Tang Su was sitting on the sofa knitting a black sweater.

"Are you here?" Tang Su put away her knitting needles and looked up at Liu Liyue.

This was their first meeting; Ye Tian had never mentioned this oddly-named woman to Tang Su, nor had he mentioned his future wife to Liu Liyue.

"Big Bull, you guys go out first. I’ll call you if needed."

Zhang Houtu nodded.

"Oh, and it’s cold tonight, I’ve brewed some ginger soup in the kitchen, drink it while it’s hot. Leave some for Ye Tian and Li Jing. I’ll reheat it for them when they come back."

So it really was this woman.

Hearing her words, Liu Liyue knew Ye Tian hadn’t chosen the wrong person. Only this woman could match his ambitions.

Behind every successful man is an outstanding woman. Although this saying sounds old-fashioned, it holds genuine wisdom. Women’s strong maternal instincts are always the best teachers for men. They are tolerant, generous, and kind, yet also strong, brave, and fearless against anything that harms them. Cautious yet also bold and progressive. They have a terrifying ability to anticipate dangers and also guide their men on how to meticulously observe the inner nature of a person or thing. Only thorough analysis can lead to accurate insights.

Women are men’s teachers.

Who says that only the wars between men are intense? The struggle between women could hardly lack gunpowder smog.

Tang Su and Liu Liyue, neither was easy to deal with. A war without gunpowder was spreading in this room.

"I’ve been thinking for a long time, and I felt it’s better to come and see you. I really wanted to see what kind of woman could make Ye Tian so obsessed," Liu Liyue leaned on a bamboo rattan chair, glanced around the room which wasn’t luxurious but certainly comfortable and elegantly classic, a result of great effort, "Now that I see, truly, you live up to the reputation. Thank you."

Liu Ling brewed tea and poured a cup for both women, Liu Liyue coldly said thank you.

Tang Su lifted her teacup steadily, her expression serene yet slightly more comfortable, "Ye Tian never mentioned you in front of me, but I could feel there was a woman who had etched her mark in his heart. I was very curious to see what sort of charm that woman had to make my Ye Tian so infatuated."

"Now that you’ve seen, how do you feel?"

"Very impressive."

Liu Liyue chuckled, "You really know how to speak."

"I’m speaking the truth."

"Truth might be the most useless thing in this world. I find Ye Tian’s frivolous smiles even more appealing. Although annoying, at least not pretentious."

Tang Su smiled but did not respond.

"Dongding Oolong," merely sniffing it near her nose, Liu Liyue accurately named the tea, "Men should stick to drinking alcohol; tea is the least interesting. My lame master, who spent his life pondering the ways of the worldly society, summed up his life’s philosophies in a few words, which in retrospect, amounted to nothing. It’s tough for a killer like him from the worldly society to try to mimic the literati and mess around with literary grace."

"That’s how it is."

Tang Su nodded in agreement. She always agreed with Liu Liyue’s words, not willing to anger her. Since she had the power to make Ye Tian cautious, she naturally wasn’t simple. From the moment Liu Liyue walked in, Tang Su knew Ye Tian could likely not overcome this challenge. One can tell what a person is like by their eyes, and in Liu Liyue’s eyes, Tang Su saw something similar to a viper’s eyes—ferocious with extreme venom. Ye Tian was not someone who could deal with that.

"Tang Su, do you think I came today just to hear you nod along to everything?" Liu Liyue put down her teacup and stared intently at Tang Su.

"Why didn’t Qin Gui come?"

"If he came, I would have lost."

"Winning or losing isn’t what I care about. I only care about our Ye Tian."

Liu Liyue nestled in the rattan chair, like a lazy little wild cat, her finger incessantly tapping the bamboo rattan armrest, lazily looking at Tang Su, "Unfortunately, what I care about most is winning and losing. So, don’t try to persuade me to change my decision. No one has beaten me before, and no one will now. I must take over Tianhe City, and whoever blocks me, I’ll kill!"

The temperature in the room instantly dropped a few degrees. Liu Ling standing by shivered.

Tang Su looked at her, "Ling, you go rest at Ruoshui for a bit, I’ll call you if needed."

Ling timidly nodded and walked out.

"Or, you could try to pressure me by mentioning the Tang Family, like your secretary father, who also carries weight. I assure you, I won’t even frown. Perhaps, I might even spare him a way out."

"If that card could be played, Ye Tian wouldn’t still be driving around personally handling business."

"So, the Tang Family isn’t treating him that well."
