Beauty Chairwoman's Bodyguard Expert

Hearing Rose’s words and sensing the overwhelming murderous intent emanating from her, Tang Kang’an felt as if his heart was being squeezed by invisible hands, making it hard for him to breathe, with a suffocating sensation.

"What... what do you want to know."

Tang Kang’an took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but the trembling in his voice made it clear to everyone how fearful he was inside.

Rose stared unblinkingly at Tang Kang’an as if she could read his mind, and spoke indifferently: "Rest assured, I’m not interested in the so-called secrets of your Tang Family. Even if you tell me, do you think I would dare to enter Shu?"

Rose’s mind was as clear as a mirror. If she’s right, the news of Tang Kang’an falling into the hands of the Lu Family has likely already reached the Tang Family. Even if she knows the distribution of Tang Family forces in Shu, it doesn’t help, as the Tang Family can change their distribution at any time, turning it into a trap waiting for you to walk into it.

Once you walk in, the trap tightens, making Shu your burial ground with no chance of escape. Moreover, neither Lu Tianxing nor the Lu Family currently has the capacity to fight the Tang Family to the death because doing so would be completely unprofitable. Even if they destroy the Tang Family, what awaits the Lu Family is a pyrrhic victory. Such disproportionate cost is not what the Lu Family and Lu Tianxing are willing to see.

Therefore, even if Tang Kang’an tells Rose about the Tang Family’s force arrangement and distribution in Shu, Rose wouldn’t dare to go there, at least not now.

Hearing Rose’s words, a shadow of gloom flashed in Tang Kang’an’s eyes. He knew that he was bound to die today and couldn’t escape, so he feigned fear, trying to lure Rose into a trap and use her to severely harm Lu Tianxing and the Lu Family.

Luring Rose into inquiring about the Tang Family’s force distribution in Shu, he could tell Rose all about it. As long as Rose and the Lu Family are even slightly tempted, if the Lu Family dare send people to Shu, it would be a dead end.

But Tang Kang’an never expected Rose to see through the essence of the matter at a glance, making all his plans come to naught.

"You seem very disappointed?"

Rose looked at Tang Kang’an with a half-smile and said: "Actually, I just need you to answer three questions. If you answer them honestly, I can give you a quick death."

Listening to Rose’s calm words, Tang Kang’an seemed resigned as he nodded: "What do you want to know?"

"First question, besides you, is there anyone else staying in Jiangnan this time?"

"No."

Tang Kang’an spoke without hesitation: "This time we came to Jiangnan to kidnap Dou Fangfang and use her to control the Lu Family, but we failed. My people were all killed by Lu Chuan. Besides me, there’s no one else in Jiangnan."

"Are you sure?"

Rose squinted at Tang Kang’an, neither believing nor disbelieving.

"I’m very sure. Of course, all my people died. As for whether the Tang Family sent others to Jiangnan, I don’t know. You know there are some things I’m not privy to."

Hearing Tang Kang’an’s words, Rose nodded thoughtfully and continued, "Second question, is the Alliance Hierarch of Qingtian Alliance Tang Qingyun?"

"Yes."

Tang Kang’an admitted directly, as it was no longer necessary to hide this point. Lu Tianxing appeared in Beijing and began targeting Qingtian Alliance, proving that Lu Tianxing knew the person behind Qingtian Alliance was Tang Qingyun. There’s no point in hiding this anymore; it’s already common knowledge.

"You’re straightforward."

Rose smiled faintly: "Last question, tell me Tang Fengxing’s phone number."

Upon hearing Rose’s words, Tang Kang’an’s heart reflexively skipped a beat, a foreboding feeling rising: "What do you intend to do?"

"You don’t need to know what I intend to do; you just need to tell me Tang Fengxing’s phone number. Of course, you can choose not to say, but I’m sure you’re well aware of the consequences of not speaking."

As she finished speaking, Lin Yafei suddenly raised her head, and her sharp gaze fell directly on Tang Kang’an, piercing the depths of his heart.

Feeling Rose’s fierce gaze, Tang Kang’an took a deep breath, looked firmly at Rose: "Okay, I’ll tell you."

With that, Tang Kang’an directly recited Tang Fengxing’s phone number.

...

Meanwhile, in the study of the Tang Family in Shu.

Tang Fengxing and Tang Fengyun sat in the study, chain-smoking, each with an undeniable coldness lingering on their faces.

Suddenly, Tang Fengxing’s cell phone on the desk rang.

Tang Fengxing shuddered upon hearing the ringtone, hurriedly walking to the desk, picking up his phone, and couldn’t help but show a trace of doubt when he saw the incoming call, it was from an unknown number with no caller ID.

"Big brother, what’s wrong? Who’s calling?" Tang Fengyun noticed Tang Fengxing’s puzzled expression and couldn’t resist asking.

"A stranger called my private number."

Tang Fengxing stared at the unknown caller ID, face flickering, as his private number is known only to a handful of people in the Tang Family, with notes for all callers.

No stranger ever called it, yet suddenly an unknown number appeared, causing an ominous premonition in Tang Fengxing’s heart.

"Big brother, are you going to answer or not..."

Before Tang Fengyun could finish, Tang Fengxing interrupted: "Answer, of course, I want to see who’s calling."

As the words fell, Tang Fengxing answered the call without any hesitation: "Hello..."

But as soon as Tang Fengxing uttered a word, a seductive voice came through the handset: "Master Tang, nice to meet you, let me introduce myself, Rose, Great Hall Master of Yama Palace, pleased to meet you."

Stunned by the voice, Tang Fengxing froze momentarily, then his face turned extremely grim: "You are Huangfu Meigui, how did you get my phone number?"
