Chapter 342: Chapter 341: New Base
"Lin Tian, your smile is so lecherous, are you still thinking about those kimono-clad beauties?" Xiao Manxuan suddenly said.
"Second Miss, how could that be? I was thinking of Sister Zi Yan," Lin Tian shook his head, defending himself.
"Oh..." Xiao Manxuan drew out the sound, giving Lin Tian a look that screamed ’bad guy’.
Lin Tian glanced at her, then looked at Zi Yan, who was feigning composure, and seriously said, "I was thinking about how clever Sister Zi Yan’s method was, effortlessly driving away the Japanese woman with just a few words."
Zi Yan glared at him and said, "I drove away two lovely beauties, maybe my little brother here is cursing me in his heart. I really played the villain and ruined your chance."
"How could that be? I’m absolutely an honest person, don’t believe me? Ask the Second Miss," Lin Tian retorted with his neck outstretched, defending himself.
"You’re not honest at all, you’re a big bad guy," Xiao Manxuan glared at Lin Tian, murmuring softly.
Lin Tian sighed, why on earth isn’t this little girl helping me out at a crucial moment? Did I have "big bad guy" written on my forehead?
Xiao Manxuan then said, "Although Lin Tian is a big bad guy, I know he only talks big and would never really do anything bad. I trust him."
Little girl speaking in bits and pieces, can’t she just say it all at once?
But she still understands me pretty well, always saying things that hit right at my heart, Lin Tian secretly gave her a thumbs up. The little girl rolled her eyes at him, but her eyes were full of flirtation.
"Xuanxuan, don’t be fooled by his appearance, he’s worse than anyone, maybe he’s fantasizing about filthy things in his mind," Zi Yan rolled her eyes at Lin Tian and snorted.
"Hey, Sister Zi Yan, you have to be responsible for what you say. If I didn’t have any fantasies or reactions, would I still be a man?" Lin Tian said indignantly, and then continued, "But I have no interest in those two Japanese women. Who knows if they are corporate spies or not, you can’t trust those people."
"Hehe, looks like you’re not dizzy after all. I think Futian Yizhi had no good intentions sending those beauties to you. Sister is looking out for you to avoid falling for a beauty trap," Zi Yan said with a serene smile.
Lin Tian shook his head and said, "A beauty is a beauty, but who knows how many men Futian Yizhi has sent them to. Just thinking about it turns me off."
If the two kimono-clad women are corporate spies using their beauty to trick people, they would have to offer their bodies; otherwise, how could they gain anyone’s trust?
Zi Yan gave a mysterious smile and softly said, "I can tell you a secret. It seems they are still virgins, hehe, aren’t you a bit regretful now?"
Lin Tian and Xiao Manxuan were both stunned. Virginity can be discerned? That’s totally illogical. There’s no modern equivalent of the ancient ’maid mustache’ indicator, so how could it be seen?
"Sister Zi Yan, how can you tell?" Xiao Manxuan asked, holding back her embarrassment; after all, it’s related to a woman’s private affairs, but curiosity overcame her shyness.
Lin Tian was equally curious. If only he knew this trick, he could tell if someone was a virgin with just one look, though he wondered if there was a way to tell with virgin men too?
"You can keep guessing." Zi Yan didn’t reveal, stretching her slender waist and changing the subject: "It’s almost noon, I’m getting hungry. Lin Tian, you owe us a meal for helping you out."
She didn’t speak up, and Lin Tian had no choice but to say, "Both beauties are rich ladies, and I’m just a humble bodyguard seeking to be kept; how can I afford to treat you?"
"Are you treating or not?" Zi Yan asked with no good intentions.
"Please, of course I’m inviting, having the company of two beautiful ladies is something others might only wish for," Lin Tian responded.
He was just joking earlier. His own jewelry company wasn’t yielding profits yet, but the bar had millions in income, all deposited into his account. Besides, he had hundreds of thousands in savings, Mrs. Xiao’s prepaid wages, and the money won from Wan Gaoyuan were all there.
Having Xiao Manxuan, the young boss present, made Tianfu Restaurant faster in taking orders and serving dishes. The food was served in the dining room in no time.
The dishes looked bountiful yet were relatively light. Lin Tian wasn’t sure if Zi Yan and Xiao Manxuan were trying to save money for him or if they generally preferred light meals, considering a light diet could nourish the skin and detoxify the body.
When they were nearly done eating, Zi Yan suddenly asked, "Junior brother, what do you plan to do with that guildhall?"
Lin Tian wasn’t surprised by her question; she had been interested in the guildhall before, and probably one of the big reasons she came was for the guildhall.
Zi Yan was the owner of the Beauty Workshop, unlike the student status of Xiao Manxuan; she had a lot of work to handle. Lin Tian wouldn’t believe that she came just for fun.
"Does senior sister also want that guildhall?" Lin Tian asked directly, not beating around the bush.
"Haha, I can’t hide anything from junior brother. Yes, as I mentioned before, I’d like to expand the Beauty Workshop Spa to that location. If junior brother is leaving the guildhall vacant, why not rent it to me? I won’t skimp on the rent," Zi Yan said bluntly.
"Unfortunately, I have other uses for it," Lin Tian regretfully said.
"What are you using it for?" Xiao Manxuan asked curiously, knowing that Lin Tian was involved in setting up a jewelry shop with the Xiao Family, and unaware of his other plans.
Starting a business in a recreational center required a significant investment, and although she wasn’t involved in the family business, she had picked up some business knowledge from her sister. One of the biggest challenges in business was the initial capital investment.
Even though Lin Tian owned Night Rose Bar, the current revenue from the bar wasn’t sufficient to support another venture in the recreational center, at least not for another year, which Xiao Manxuan understood as well.
Zi Yan also wanted to know what Lin Tian was going to do with the guildhall and where the money for the investment would come from.
"I’m planning to start a bodyguard company," Lin Tian thought for a moment and spoke the truth.
"A bodyguard company?" Both women looked surprised.
Although Lin Tian was a bodyguard, starting a bodyguard company wasn’t an easy task, especially Xiao Manxuan, being part of the Xiao Group, understood the complexities of running a bodyguard company, as Mrs. Xiao had hired many bodyguards for her.
Zi Yan skeptically said, "I don’t know where you’re getting the capital, but beyond that, what about the location? Though spacious, the guildhall is hardly fit to serve as a training base for bodyguards."
She was stating the facts, which Lin Tian was aware of because Ghost had said the same. However, finding a new training base wasn’t easy.
"We’ll worry about the training base later. It’s not easy finding such a large space in Xikou City," Lin Tian admitted honestly.
The price of land in Xikou City was increasing daily. Anyone who had land was holding on to it, awaiting appreciation in value. Securing a large plot was somewhat improbable, and even if it was possible, it would require a significant investment. Lin Tian suddenly felt like he was still poor, unable to afford even a plot of land.
"Hehe, junior brother, maybe I can gift you a new base," Zi Yan said with a twinkling smile.
