Beauty Chairwoman's Bodyguard Expert

Upon hearing Lin Yafei’s scornful words, Chen Changwu’s breathing gradually grew rapid, his fists clenched tightly together. His fingernails dug into his flesh from the force, but Chen Changwu seemed oblivious, staring at Lin Yafei with a face full of malice.

After a long pause, Chen Changwu snorted heavily and said nothing further to Lin Yafei, instead turning abruptly to walk out.

He knew very well that at this moment, he couldn’t do anything against Lin Yafei. Staying would only bring him humiliation. Rather than that, he chose to leave.

Just as Chen Changwu reached the door of the restaurant, ready to leave, Lu Tianxing suddenly said, "What, are you planning to leave just like that?"

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Chen Changwu’s body trembled involuntarily.

Lu Tianxing’s voice carried a tremendous intimidating force, causing Chen Changwu’s footsteps to halt uncontrollably.

"You came here to mock my woman, and now you want to leave without saying a word? Do you think my woman, Lu Tianxing’s woman, is easy to bully?"

Lu Tianxing’s voice was calm and indifferent, as if speaking casually, but when it reached Chen Changwu’s ears, it made his body begin to tremble uncontrollably.

Chen Changwu slowly turned around, took a deep breath to suppress his inner fear and ferocity, and said to Lu Tianxing, "Mr. Lu, I apologize for earlier. I hope you can forgive me. Here, I apologize to Master Lin."

"Apologize? If apologies were enough, what would be the need for police in this world?"

Lu Tianxing glanced indifferently at Chen Changwu and said, "My woman doesn’t hold it against you, but that doesn’t mean I don’t. Otherwise, if word got out, people would think I, Lu Tianxing, am a pushover, unable to protect even my own woman."

"Besides, a woman’s heart is fragile. If I remain unaffected after you mocked my woman, she might think I don’t care for her!"

As he spoke, Lu Tianxing’s voice suddenly turned icy, "So, for both emotional and rational reasons, I must demand an explanation from you and vent my woman’s anger."

Listening to Lu Tianxing’s seemingly mundane words, Chen Changwu felt as though he had been struck by lightning, unable to control his trembling, as cold sweat drenched his back, and his face turned an unnatural shade of pale.

Chen Changwu was truly afraid, remembering the times when Lu Tianxing demanded an explanation from others. If one couldn’t provide a reasonable explanation, their fate was always extremely miserable.

"Mr. Lu, what explanation do you want? As long as I can do it, I won’t refuse," Chen Changwu gritted his teeth and said. His only way out now was to agree to all of Lu Tianxing’s demands; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to leave today.

"My request is simple. Didn’t my woman force you to crawl out of the Sky Dragon Club on your knees? Then today, I want you to do the same, crawl out of here on your knees, and I’ll let you go."

Lu Tianxing looked at Chen Changwu, his tone as calm as ever, "Of course, you can refuse, but I won’t hesitate to cripple you and have you dragged out. Do you think Tang Qingyun would seek revenge on me for a cripple?"

After speaking, Lu Tianxing’s gaze fell on Chen Changwu, his eyes calm, but in those eyes, Chen Changwu sensed the unspoken words: if he didn’t comply with Lu Tianxing’s demands, Lu Tianxing would indeed cripple him without mercy.

Chen Changwu stood there, cold sweat streaming down his forehead, his heart filled with fear.

"Chen Changwu, I give you one minute to consider carefully whether you will crawl out of here on your knees or be crippled by me. Think carefully and don’t make the wrong choice," Lu Tianxing spoke again.

"Gulp."

Hearing Lu Tianxing’s words, Chen Changwu swallowed hard, trying to say something, but it felt as though all his strength had been drained, even unable to open his mouth, his teeth chattering together, producing a series of clashing sounds, his body uncontrollably trembling, clearly terrified to the extreme.

"Remember, you have only one minute to decide, starting now..."

"Sixty."

"Fifty-nine."

"... "

Lu Tianxing’s steady countdown echoed in the restaurant, his voice quiet but like heavy hammers striking not only Chen Changwu’s heart but also the hearts of those around who knew Lu Tianxing, causing their hearts to beat in sync with Lu Tianxing’s voice.

They had heard of Lu Tianxing’s fearsome reputation and ruthless methods, but seeing it in person far surpassed any tales they had heard. Only now did they understand why their families always warned them not to cross Lu Tianxing, as death would be a merciful release in comparison.

As they reeled from the shock, all eyes involuntarily fell on Chen Changwu, eager to see how he would decide this time.

This was a difficult choice, a dilemma.

If Chen Changwu kneeled this time, he would become a complete laughingstock, and Tang Qingyun might even kill him.

Although Chen Changwu was merely a puppet supported by Tang Qingyun, he was, after all, the Alliance Hierarch of the Qingtian Alliance, representing Tang Qingyun’s face.

If Chen Changwu kneeled and crawled out now, it would be tantamount to Tang Qingyun kneeling before Lu Tianxing. Tang Qingyun couldn’t possibly swallow that affront, and he’d be strange if he didn’t kill Chen Changwu.

Clearly, Chen Changwu understood this point, and Lu Tianxing wasn’t merely making him kneel to vent his woman’s anger but also to thoroughly disgust Tang Qingyun. Yet, he had no other choice unless he was willing to become a cripple from now on.

As Chen Changwu’s heart brimmed with fear, Lu Tianxing’s voice, like one from the Nine Netherworld, struck again, shattering Chen Changwu’s thoughts: "Chen Changwu, thirty seconds have passed. I suggest you make your choice quickly; otherwise, I’ll break your limbs myself. I’m quite interested to see if Tang Qingyun will be affectionate towards you, his dog, then."
