Global alert! SSSSS-class overlord released from prison!

Upon hearing this voice, Chu Qian couldn't help but turn her face away.

Just then, Xiang Fan was seen leaning against the edge of the hot spring pool, his body relaxed and his expression languid.

It was as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

Chu Qian frowned slightly, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"Mr. Xiang, what do you mean by that?"

Cherry, who was standing to the side, spoke up directly.

"President Chu, don't listen to his nonsense."

"What do you mean he can't drink? He's clearly trying to get your attention with this clumsy method!"

"That's such an outdated way to start a conversation!"

Chu Qian's expression shifted slightly, but she still casually put down the wine glass and placed it on the stone platform beside her.

Although she didn't know Xiang Fan's intentions, she was also clear that if Xiang Fan really had feelings for her, he would have made a move long ago.

It certainly wouldn't be as calm and collected as it seems.

But she didn't notice that the stone platform was uneven, and the wine glass tilted to one side as soon as she put it down.

With a "whoosh," all the wine in the glass spilled out, landing right on the green plants next to it.

However, in an instant, an unpleasant odor emanated from the lush green leaves.

Immediately afterwards, it turned yellow and shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Finally, he died completely!

Upon seeing this, Chu Qian and Ying Tao both paled!

The two of them could clearly see that the wine had been poisoned!

If Xiang Fan hadn't reminded her, Chu Qian would probably have already drunk the poisoned wine and died on the spot!

Chu Qian felt a wave of fear wash over her, and her gaze towards Xiang Fan was filled with gratitude.

"Mr. Xiang, I'm so grateful..."

Before the words were finished, a cold light suddenly pierced through the air and struck.

The target was her throat!

The person who made the move was none other than the waiter who had delivered the wine earlier!

At this moment, his eyes were fierce, and the dagger in his hand gleamed coldly!

The blade sliced ​​through the air, carrying a deadly aura.

This strike is destined to kill Chu Qian instantly!

At the critical moment, Cherry suddenly stood up.

He pulled Chu Qian behind him and then delivered a spinning kick, his long leg whipping with wind as he slammed it into the waiter.

Seeing Chu Qian dodge, the waiter's eyes flashed with ruthlessness. He twisted his wrist, and the dagger was aimed straight at Cherry's lower abdomen.

For a moment, the two were locked in combat, and the muffled thuds of fists and feet colliding rang out one after another.

Before Chu Qian could get away from the battle, another dark figure suddenly darted out from behind the artificial hill.

With a flick of his wrist, three gleaming throwing knives shot straight at Chu Qian.

Two stabs through the heart, one stab to the throat.

The angle was so tricky that in the blink of an eye, they were already within arm's reach!

At the same time, the man threw another throwing knife, aiming straight for Xiang Fan's face.

"You talkative brat, you're asking for it!"

Xiang Fan was enjoying a relaxing soak in the hot spring when a simple reminder brought him a deadly disaster!

Seeing the flying knife hurtling towards him with a strong gust of wind, a cold glint flashed in Xiang Fan's eyes.

With a raised hand, he tightly gripped the throwing knife between two fingers.

"You think you're worthy to kill me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he flicked his wrist, and the throwing knife changed direction, reflecting back at the attacker.

With a soft "thud," the throwing knife precisely pierced the opponent's throat.

The man didn't even have time to scream before he fell straight down.

Just then, Xiang Fan caught a glimpse of Chu Qian's pale face.

Those three throwing knives were only inches away from her!

Xiang Fan flicked his finger, and a splash of water suddenly rose up.

With a sharp force, it crashed into the three throwing knives.

With a few crisp clangs, all the throwing knives fell to the ground.

Chu Qian finally snapped out of her shock, her back already soaked in cold sweat.

At the same time, seeing that things were hopeless, the waiter's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he used his dagger to force back and finish off Cherry.

With a push of his foot, he disappeared behind the artificial hill.

Fearing she had fallen for a diversionary tactic, Cherry didn't pursue them further. Instead, she quickly came to Chu Qian's side, her face full of tension.

"Mr. Chu, are you alright?"

"Are you injured anywhere?"

"No, it's nothing." Chu Qian shook her head.

She took a deep breath, suppressed the fear in her heart, and stepped towards Xiang Fan.

As she approached, she bowed slightly, her voice filled with heartfelt gratitude.

"Mr. Xiang, thank you so much for what happened before!"

"If you hadn't spoken up and saved me, I probably would have died twice today!"

Chu Qian was filled with gratitude, but she forgot that she was wearing a tight-fitting swimsuit.

Even though it wasn't a revealing bikini, it still perfectly accentuated her shapely figure.

Especially when she bowed, the deep cleavage revealed at her neckline was displayed without any concealment to Xiang Fan.

Even though Xiang Fan had seen the stunning beauty of his masters while in prison, the close visual impact of this sight still made him take a second look.

As if sensing the heat in Xiang Fan's gaze, Chu Qian suddenly looked up, her pretty face instantly flushed.

But instead of panicking and trying to hide it, she raised her eyes to meet Xiang Fan's gaze, her tone carrying a hint of allure.

"Mr. Xiang, is it good?"

"Yes." Xiang Fan nodded honestly.

"Round and full, fair and firm, it is indeed very beautiful."

"Would you like to take a closer look?" Chu Qian pressed further.

Xiang Fan withdrew his gaze and shook his head.

"No need for that. Beautiful scenery is best appreciated from afar."

"If you see it too often, you'll lose its charm."

"Moreover, the more beautiful something is, the more trouble it causes!"

Hearing Xiang Fan's high-sounding words, Chu Qian couldn't help but inwardly spit in disgust.

That sounds nice, but who was watching so intently just now?

However, upon thinking this way, her mind, which had been in turmoil due to fright, quietly calmed down during these few words of conversation!

A hint of surprise flashed in Chu Qian's eyes, and she quickly looked at Xiang Fan.

Was he saying these things on purpose to distract himself and calm himself down?

Otherwise, given her state just now, she would probably have remained in a panic for a long time!

Thinking of this, Chu Qian's grateful gaze was now filled with even more admiration.

"Mr. Xiang, thank you for what you just said!"

Xiang Fan hadn't expected Chu Qian to react so quickly. He raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything more.

At this moment, Chu Qian had regained her previous capable and decisive demeanor.

She looked up at Xiang Fan, her tone sincere.

"Mr. Xiang, you saved me twice, I can't thank you enough!"

"I'm willing to pay you 100 million Chinese Yuan annually to be my personal bodyguard, how about it?"

With an annual fee of 100 million, even in the entire bodyguard industry, it is absolutely top-tier!

Chu Qian's actions showed great sincerity.

But Xiang Fan shook his head without even thinking.

"Not good."

After being rejected, Chu Qian did not give up, but instead continued to increase her demands.

"If you think the pay is too low, I can increase it!"

"Furthermore, I can also give you a portion of the shares in Mingyue Group!"

As if worried that Xiang Fan was unaware of the significance of Mingyue Group, Chu Qian added.

"Mr. Xiang, Mingyue Group is a top conglomerate in central China, with a market value exceeding 100 billion."

"What I mentioned earlier about the artists is just one aspect of our business."

"If you agree to serve as my personal bodyguard for three years, in addition to an annual salary of 100 million, I'm willing to give you 0.5% of the group's shares!"

0.5% of the shares, when converted, is worth 500 million!

Moreover, given Mingyue Group's current development, the market value of its shares will only continue to rise!

Add to that the 300 million salary over three years, and this is undoubtedly an astronomical figure!

Cherry, standing nearby, was stunned and quickly tried to dissuade him.

"President Chu, those shares were hard-earned for you. Giving them away now would be too much..."

"Cherry, no need to say anything more!"

Chu Qian raised her hand to interrupt her, her gaze fixed intently on Xiang Fan.

"I trust my judgment. Mr. Xiang is so young, yet he possesses such formidable strength."

"Given time, he will surely become a regional hegemon!"

"I trust this investment!"
