The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife
Chapter 41 - 41 41 Having a Nightmare

41: Chapter 41 Having a Nightmare 41: Chapter 41 Having a Nightmare The next morning, Ye Shikai arrived at Tianya Group as usual.

Since he had overcome the hardship yesterday, the company was once again thriving, and Ye Shikai returned to the public relations department.

“Good morning, Lan,” he said upon seeing An Lan discussing something with colleagues in the PR department, his face all smiles as he approached.

“Ye Shikai, I have some good news for you,” An Lan said with a knowing smile.

“The president has given our PR department a raise.”

“Really?

How much?” Ye Shikai’s face lit up with surprise.

“Two thousand yuan more per person per month.”

“That’s great.” Of course, Ye Shikai knew why Su Qingyu wanted to give the PR department a raise.

Officially, it was to reward everyone, but in reality, it was because of him.

After all, to divert attention, he couldn’t just give himself a raise; it was a boon for the whole PR department.

No wonder on the way, they looked as sweet as if they’d eaten honey, discussing where to vacation on the holiday.

It turned out they got a raise.

“Okay, everyone, back to work.

Ye Shikai, come with me,” An Lan said as the crowd dispersed.

Ye Shikai followed her into the office.

“Ye Shikai, what exactly is your relationship with the president?

Why did she tell me today to promote you to team leader?”

Ye Shikai was a little surprised.

His wife was unusually kind, not only giving him a salary increase but also making him team leader.

“Hehe, Lan, let me tell you a secret.

Come closer,” Ye Shikai said with a mysterious face, and An Lan was very curious.

“Actually, the president is my…

wife.”

“Ye Shikai, can you be serious?” An Lan looked at Ye Shikai with some displeasure.

Like Zhuang Yan’s first reaction, An Lan didn’t believe that Su Qingyu could be Ye Shikai’s wife.

“What I’m saying is true, the president really is…” “Dingling,” suddenly Ye Shikai’s phone rang.

“Lan, sorry, I need to take this call,” Ye Shikai said apologetically.

“Hello, are you looking for me?” Ye Shikai saw that the caller was Luo Shiqi.

“Humph, I helped you out yesterday, and today you’re ignoring me.” Ye Shikai heard a plaintive voice on the other end.

“I need to talk to you about something significant today.

It’s 8:10 now, and I’ll give you twenty minutes.

I’ll be waiting for you at the entrance of Dark Night Bar at 8:30.

If you’re late, you’re done.” After saying that, Luo Shiqi hung up the phone, and Ye Shikai sighed inwardly; this woman was really bossy.

“Lan, I have a friend who’s in trouble.

I must hurry over,” he said.

An Lan looked worried, seeing Ye Shikai’s anxious expression, so she immediately approved his leave.

“Driver, hurry up.

I must get to Dark Night Bar before 8:30, or it’ll be the end of me.” In the taxi, Ye Shikai was fixated on his watch as time ticked away.

Yet, they were still some distance from Dark Night Bar.

“Bro, don’t worry, I used to be a racer,” the taxi driver said.

Ye Shikai thought that Yanjing cabbies were all talk, but he hadn’t expected their driving skills to be so impressive.

Arriving at Dark Night Bar, Ye Shikai glanced at his watch – 8:29.

Thank heavens, he hurriedly got out of the taxi.

As soon as Ye Shikai got out of the car, he saw that sports car parked at the entrance of Dark Night Bar and a striking black figure.

Who else could that figure be but Luo Shiqi?

From a distance, Ye Shikai waved at Luo Shiqi and began to run towards her.

Suddenly, he was struck by an uneasy feeling, similar to the last time he was attacked in the shopping mall.

Not good, Luo Shiqi was in danger.

“Run!”

“Boom”—the Bugatti beside Luo Shiqi exploded.

In an instant, dense smoke billowed, and flames shot into the sky.

Ye Shikai watched in horror as Luo Shiqi was swallowed by the fiery inferno…

“No………”

“No,” Ye Shikai suddenly opened his eyes and looked around.

He was in his room, after all.

It had just been a nightmare.

Ye Shikai took a deep breath, his pajamas soaked with cold sweat.

He was still shaken—if this was a nightmare, it was terrifyingly realistic.

Particularly the part where he saw Luo Shiqi devoured by flames; he wished he could rush forward and embrace her immediately.

Although it was a dream, it reflected his subconsciousness.

Though he hadn’t known Luo Shiqi for long, she had slowly made her way into his heart, notably after they survived an assassination together at the shopping mall.

Ye Shikai hurried out of bed, quickly freshened up, and headed to the office.

Upon entering the office, Ye Shikai was stunned.

An Lan was chatting with a colleague, and everything looked exactly like in his dream, “Ye Shikai, you’ve come at the perfect time.

I have some great news for you,” said An Lan with a beaming smile.

“Is it that the President has given us a raise?” Unlike the excitement he felt in his dream at hearing this news, Ye Shikai was utterly devoid of excitement now, his face filled with anxiety.

“Eh, how did you know?”

“Is it 2000 for each person, and I’ve also been promoted to team leader by the President?” Ye Shikai was getting increasingly agitated, and he grabbed An Lan’s arms right in front of everyone, leaving her bemused by his demeanor.

“Yes, how did you know?

Did the President tell you directly?”

“It’s over.” Ye Shikai slumped into a chair.

An Lan was puzzled; shouldn’t he be excited?

Why did it seem like he had heard of an impending apocalypse?

The people from the public relations department all quieted down and watched Ye Shikai sitting in the chair, grieving as though he had lost a loved one.

“Dingling”—suddenly, a mobile phone ringtone broke the silence.

It was Ye Shikai’s phone.

He slowly took out the phone from his pocket, not daring to look at the caller ID.

What if it was a call from Luo Shiqi…

“Why aren’t you answering?” Although An Lan didn’t know what was going on with Ye Shikai, she began to feel uneasy, too.

Sneaking a peek at Ye Shikai’s phone, she said, “Ye Shikai, why is it a call from Luo Shiqi?” An Lan was a bit displeased; she had repeatedly instructed Ye Shikai not to get involved with Luo Shiqi, and now Luo Shiqi was calling him.

Ye Shikai’s heart skipped a beat.

Indeed it was the same scenario as in the dream.

According to the plot of the dream, next he would rush to Dark Night Bar, and then Luo Shiqi would be in peril.

Ye Shikai glanced at the time on his phone, 8:10.

The explosion in his dream was supposed to be at 8:30.

He had to prevent this disaster at all costs.

“Hello, little bro, why did you take so long to answer the phone, are you giving me the cold shoulder…”

“Luo Shiqi, run!” Ye Shikai yelled with all his might.
