The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 84: Chapter 84

"Shut up! You crazy woman!"

"Shut up? Tang Guoyao, you’ve really grown up, haven’t you? Your older brother, the secretary, desperately kept you in a civil servant position for ten years and really did develop your skills. Have you ever wondered why he suppressed you? It’s because of that little incident with his wife. If you ask me, she had it coming, and yet she even had some rare blood type that even God wanted her dead..."

"Smack!" A loud slap echoed in the car, followed by a woman’s sobs.

Ye Tian, observing the situation in the front car, said indifferently, "Manager Tang, it seems like something happened between your two uncles. Should I go check it out?"

Tang Su, looking down at her phone without lifting her head, replied, "No need to bother about them. Just follow them."

Ye Tian uttered an "Oh" and continued driving.

Family scandals should not be aired in public, and Chen Pingyue, a woman as beautiful as her name, handled this to perfection. Possibly having reapplied her makeup in the car, there was no trace of the slap on her face. She walked arm-in-arm with Tang Guoyao, smiling, into the Tan Family’s large courtyard.

They were welcomed by Luo Ningshui, Tan Family’s eldest daughter-in-law. This knowledgeable, elegant, and well-poised woman, with her unique charm, had won the favor of the eldest son of the Tan Family, marrying into the family and bearing him a son and a daughter, thereby becoming increasingly important in the Tan Family.

"Ah, Guoyao, you’re here, come on in."

This was indeed a situation better suited for a woman to handle. Chen Pingyue didn’t let go of Tang Guoyao’s arm but just bowed slightly and said with a smile, "Sister-in-law, you look more beautiful every day. Where is Tan Xin? Today I brought Susu along too, isn’t he coming out to greet us?"

"Where’s Susu? Aunt Yue, if you’re lying to me, I won’t let it go." While talking, a man’s voice was heard in the courtyard, and soon a strikingly handsome man in a suit appeared, so dashing that even Ye Tian felt a pang of jealousy.

"Tan Xin is growing up to be more handsome, must have many girls after him, huh?"

"Yes, Tan Xin, my grandfather always mentions you saying you’re even closer to him than us."

"Alright, don’t flatter him too much. This young man has given me quite a few headaches. Come on in. Tan Xin, ask your sister to make tea. And this is..." Luo Ningshui noticed Ye Tian standing next to Tang Su and asked with a smile.

"Oh, this is our..."

"My friend." Tang Su didn’t want Ye Tian to be addressed again as just a bodyguard or driver by others; he was her friend, and it didn’t matter what others thought.

The atmosphere turned a bit awkward.

Being experienced themselves, people can’t hide their true thoughts from the observing eyes, especially not from the Tan Family’s eldest daughter-in-law, whose skill in reading people is no less than those seasoned politicians. Seeing Chen Pingyue’s and Tang Su’s competitive stance, she guessed quite a bit of the situation, although not entirely sure what was in their minds. But from the looks of it, Tang Su was eagerly defending this flat-haired youth.

"Since he’s a friend, please come inside."

"Thank you, Auntie." Ye Tian responded fearlessly and politely, Luo Ningshui nodded and then welcomed everyone inside.

After some small talk, Tang Guoyao and his wife followed the host through the door, automatically leaving Tang Su to Tan Xin, only that Ye Tian stepped between the two, creating hardly any closeness.

Compared to the Tang Family’s villa, which had an antique charm, the Tan Family’s home exhibited a modern vibe. The overall white theme was quite comforting to the eye, and the small garden in the yard was planted with common flowers like roses and camellias, plain yet lively.

Ye Tian followed Tang Su to the spacious living room on the first floor, ignoring the glances Chen Pingyue occasionally sent his way. Chen Pingyue couldn’t have expected Tang Su to bring this guy here, a friend? Bullshit, that’s justasking for trouble.

"Uncle Tang, Auntie, you’ve arrived."

A girl in a loose gray tracksuit came down the spiral staircase from the second floor, holding a teapot in her hand and wearing cotton slippers, her long hair casually tied up, a beautiful face that easily made men distracted. Ye Tian was curious about what sort of job this girl might have; among the girls he had seen, if Gu Yue was like chocolate liquor, Song Qian was like a 56-degree vodka, Tang Su was the sweet and smooth Moutai, and this girl, resembling Tan Xin a bit, was like a wild bomb distilled from the countryside.

"Tan Xiao, why are you wearing glasses, busy with work at the company? I know an old Chinese medicine doctor who is great at eye massages; you can try it when you’re tired, it might help."

After pouring tea for the guests, Tan Xiao spoke, "Auntie, these aren’t real glasses; look, there are no lenses."

"These kids nowadays, I don’t understand why wear glasses without lenses, I think they are superfluous, but they find them attractive."

"Mom!" Tan Xiao pouted like a child, making the adults smile.

Tang Guoyao looked at Tan Xiao and Tan Xin, smiling, but his heart was somewhat melancholic—when would the Tang Family have a capable younger generation?

Tan Xiao walked up to Tang Su, took her hand, and said, "Susu, let’s go upstairs, I have a few friends up there as well."

"Yes, yes, young people should be with young people, go ahead." Chen Pingyue hurriedly urged Tang Su, but shook her head at Ye Tian.

"Tan Xiao, he’s Susu’s friend, let’s go together."

Ye Tian glanced at the female host, feeling somewhat surprised, but still stood up under the invitation of his fellow man, Tan Xin, and the group of four headed upstairs.

Watching Ye Tian’s back, Chen Pingyue felt displeased and glanced at Tang Guoyao sitting beside her, this man so spineless that he daren’t even breathe heavily in a stranger’s house.

Compared to the first floor, the second-floor décor was simpler, yet it held more youthful vigor. A large space emptied the entire second floor, and upon entering the door, about eight or nine young people were sitting cross-legged on the floor discussing something, with either tablets or notebooks filled with dense notes and diagrams in their hands, seemingly discussing something very confidential.

Young talents!

"Tan Xiao, you’re here. This is..."

A young man in white casual clothes noticed Ye Tian and Tang Su, also piquing the curiosity of others, as tablets and notebooks were quickly flipped over, avoiding outsiders’ eyes.

To avoid any misunderstanding, Tan Xiao pulled over Tang Su and introduced to everyone, "This is the young miss of the Tang Family, Tang Su, and her friend..."
