Earning 100 million a day, yet trapped in a county town.

Chapter 101 Bodyguard Tie Niu, You Stay and Show Your Support

Shen Qingxue walked past him and entered the room. The two were very close, so close that the thin strap of her dress almost brushed against his arm.

She entered the room and stood in the entryway.

Wang Guanxi followed him in and gently closed the door behind him.

The door lock made a soft "click" sound.

The sound was exceptionally clear in the quiet room, like a silent confirmation.

The two of them stood there in the entryway, neither of them making the first move.

The city lights streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, outlining the hazy silhouettes of two people in the darkness.

It was quiet for a long time.

Then Shen Qingxue spoke.

"I'm going to take a shower."

Her voice was very soft, yet exceptionally clear in the quiet room.

She bent down, took off her sandals, stepped barefoot on the floor, and turned to walk into the bathroom.

The door closed.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of rushing water came from inside.

Wang Guanxi stood in the darkness, listening to the sound of water, and slowly exhaled.

He didn't turn on the light.

Using the dim light from the window, he went into the bathroom.

The sound of water running in the bathroom continued.

The night outside the window was deep and dark.

Length of night.

the next morning.

When Shen Qingxue woke up, sunlight was already streaming in through the gaps in the curtains.

She turned her head to the side; Wang Guanxi was still sleeping beside her, breathing steadily.

She stared at his profile for a while, then gently sat up and leaned against the headboard.

Last night felt like a dream.

She originally planned to have a meal, then go back to the hotel to sleep, and return to Jiangzhou the next day to complete her resignation procedures.

As it turned out, things developed far beyond her plans.

She glanced down at Wang Guanxi; he was still asleep.

Shen Qingxue quietly got out of bed, walked to the window, and pulled back the curtains a little.

It was a bright and sunny day outside.

She took out her phone and booked a high-speed train ticket back to Jiangzhou at 2 p.m.

Then she turned her head and glanced at Wang Guanxi on the bed.

Three days.

She gave herself three days.

Go back and resign, make peace with Dong Xiaocheng, and then come back.

That afternoon, Wang Guanxi took Shen Qingxue to the high-speed rail station.

"Let me know when you arrive," he said.

"it is good."

"I'll be waiting for you in Jiangcheng in three days."

Shen Qingxue nodded and pulled her suitcase into the ticket gate.

She didn't turn around.

But she knew that this departure was different from any previous business trip.

She will come back.

The night after Shen Qingxue left, Wang Guanxi thought about the bodyguard issue and decided to go to the Day and Night Club first.

Zhong Zhaolong knows people from all walks of life; he might be able to recommend a few reliable candidates.

Wang Guanxi drove his McLaren to the entrance of Day and Night.

After parking his car, he didn't go straight in, but stood at the entrance for a while.

At night, the neon lights are on, several cars are parked at the entrance, and people come and go from time to time.

Business seems to be doing quite well in the first few days since opening.

Just as Wang Guanxi was about to go in, his gaze was suddenly drawn to a figure standing at the door.

He was a man in his early thirties.

Standing next to the security post at the entrance, wearing a black security uniform, he stood there upright, his posture ramrod straight, like a pine tree planted in the ground.

His posture was completely different from the crooked and awkward security guards next to him.

The security guards were either leaning against the wall playing on their phones or chatting together.

He was the only one standing there, staring straight ahead, his hands hanging naturally at his sides, motionless.

Wang Guanxi glanced at him a couple more times.

This person has such perfect posture.

He walked over and stopped in front of the man.

When the man saw someone approaching, his gaze shifted to him, but his expression remained unchanged; he simply nodded slightly.

Good evening, sir.

The voice was neither too loud nor too soft, carrying a calm and steady quality.

"Hello." Wang Guanxi looked him up and down. "What's your name?"

"Tie Niu. His surname is Tie, and his given name is Niu."

Wang Guanxi paused for a moment: "This name—it's quite unique."

"It was named by my parents; they weren't very cultured."

Tie Niu's tone remained calm, neither humble nor arrogant.

"You served in the military?"

"Yes, I served in the army for seven years and was discharged three years ago."

He nodded, asked no further questions, and turned to walk into the clubhouse.

Chung Chao-lung was chatting with some friends in the lobby when he saw Wang Guanxi come in. He immediately left the others behind and greeted him with a smile.

"Mr. Wang! What brings you here? You didn't even let me know beforehand so I could make the arrangements!"

"It's nothing, I just came to take a look around." Wang Guanxi shook hands with him and lowered his voice, "Boss Zhong, I have a question for you."

"you say."

"Where did you hire that security guard named Tie Niu at the gate?"

Chung Chao-lung was taken aback; he hadn't expected Wang Guanxi to ask that.

"Oh, you mean Tie Niu? He was introduced by a friend. He's a veteran who served in the army for many years."

"After retiring, I went back to my hometown, but couldn't find any suitable work, so I came to work as a security guard here. What's wrong?"

"I want this person."

Zhong Zhaolong blinked: "What do you need him for?"

"To be a bodyguard," Wang Guanxi said. "I need someone to stay close to me lately."

Zhong Zhaolong thought for a moment, then slapped his thigh.

"Fine! Mr. Wang, since you've spoken, how could I refuse to release them?"

He turned and called out towards the door, "Tie Niu! Come in here for a moment!"

Upon hearing the shout, Tie Niu quickly walked into the security room at the entrance.

"Mr. Chung, you wanted to see me?"

"Tie Niu, starting today, you're working for Boss Wang." Zhong Zhaolong patted him on the shoulder. "Boss Wang runs a big business in Jiangcheng. You'll have a better future working for him than working for me."

Tie Niu paused for a moment, then turned to look at Wang Guanxi.

She turned back to look at Zhong Zhaolong.

"Mr. Zhong, do you mean—I'm quitting this job?"

"Yes." Zhong Zhaolong nodded. "President Wang needs a close confidant, and you're just right. You were in the army, you're skilled, and you're reliable. You won't go wrong following President Wang."

He lowered his voice again, his tone carrying the sincerity of someone who had been through it all.

"Tie Niu, let me tell you the truth. Working as a security guard here, you'd earn at most five or six thousand a month. But following Boss Wang is your chance to change your luck. Listen to Boss Wang; it'll be a hundred times better than working here."

Tie Niu remained silent for a few seconds.

Then he turned his head and looked at Wang Guanxi with a serious expression.

"Mr. Wang, I don't have much education, I only know a little martial arts. If you think I can be of use, I'll work for you."

Wang Guanxi looked at him and nodded.

"Salary tripled, room and board included. Report to my company tomorrow."

Tie Niu's expression remained unchanged, but he straightened his back even more.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang."

Chung Chao-lung was in a great mood after arranging Tie Niu for Wang Guanxi.

"Mr. Wang, you've taken the person with you, but you have to stay and support me tonight."

Chung Chao-lung grinned, his face crinkling with wrinkles. "You haven't really enjoyed yourself since the renovations were finished."

"This batch of girls are all carefully trained, high quality and excellent skills, you're guaranteed to be satisfied."
