Absolute Beauty CEO and Her
Chapter 57
Ling Chen only felt that it was funny, this little girl actually wanted to be a matchmaker between him and Zhu Xiaozhu. However, thinking of Zhu Xiaozhu’s gentle, water-like personality and temperament, as well as her beautiful appearance, he felt his heart thumping.
Under the heavens, was there a man who did not like beauties, especially the heavenly ones?
“Sister Xiaozhu?” Nanrong Wanqing found the name somewhat familiar
Xiao Hua had been chatting non-stop about this woman, and this led to curiosity welling up in Nanrong Wanqing’s heart. She was interested in the identity of the woman whom Xiao Hua said was comparable to her.
“Little sister, who is this sister Xiao Hua you mentioned?”
“My sister’s name is Zhu Xiaozhu. Do you know her, big sister?”
“It’s her!”
Nanrong Wanqing was slightly surprised and her beautiful luminous eyes could not help flashing a strange colour. She then turned to look at Ling Chen next to her, astonishment rippling through her heart. She could scarcely believe that this man knew Zhu Xiaozhu.
“Chairwoman, why are you staring at me like that? It’s not like I have a flower blooming on my face.” Ling Chen asked, making a gesture of touching his face.
“Who’s looking at you? You think too highly of yourself.”
Nanrong Wanqing let out a light ‘hmph’ and turned her gaze away, continuing to converse with Xiao Hua. Seeing the opportunity, Ling Chen disembarked the vehicle and gave a call to Ye Yongliang. Mr Ye and Xiaozhu must be anxious about Xiao Hua’s safety. I should give them a heads up and let them put their hearts at ease.
“Hello, Mr Ye? It’s me.”
“Mr Ling, how did it go? Did you manage to find Xiao Hua?” Ye Liangyong asked urgently.
“Rest assured. I already rescued Xiao Hua, she’s fine now.”
“That’s great to hear!” Ye Liangyong’s jubilant voice could be heard over the receiver. At the same time, a woman’s voice could be heard as well, albeit slightly less audible and Ling Chen guessed it was probably Zhu Xiaozhu.
“Mr Ling, thank you so much for helping us.” From Ye Liangyong’s voice, he seemed to be very emotional now. This made Ling Chen even more curious as to what secrets Xiao Hua had on her.
“Mr Ye, I’ll send Xiao Hua back to the dojo personally. Don’t worry.”
“Okay, then I’ll be troubling you.”
After hanging up the phone, it did not take long before several police cars rushed over from Circle Road and stopped in front of the Mercedes-Benz.
Ling Chen was surprised when he saw the woman coming down from the car. It was actually Xia Mutong. Didn’t this girl just faint, how did she recover so quickly? Looking at the band-aid on her forehead, the wound was preliminarily treated. The woman was involved in such a severe car accident, yet she still forced herself to come with her injuries. This woman is really a workaholic.
“Officer Xia.” He stepped forward and greeted her with a smile.
Xia Mutong glared at him coldly and as he approached her, she stretched out her hand. “Hand it over.”
Ling Chen knew what she was referring to and quickly took out the gun and returned it to her. “Officer Xia, you can’t blame me for taking your guns without permission. The kidnappers carried guns with them, I couldn’t possibly fight them with my body alone, right?”
“I know, which is why I’m not arresting you now. What about the kidnappers?”
“There!” Ling Chen pointed at the two bodies lying on the ground, and the kidnapper, who had been tied up.
Xia Mutong frowned: “You killed those two people?”
“Don’t accuse me! They were shot dead by their companions and had nothing to do with me. The hostage is still in my car. You can ask her if you don’t believe me.” He then opened the door and called Xiao Hua out.
After questioning him, Xia Mutong sent Xiao Hua back to Ling Chen. However, the look she gave Ling Chen had a little more doubt in it. She just received a call from her higher-ups, explicitly commanding her to let Ling Chen take over the hostage. She was only responsible for bringing the kidnappers back. Therefore, she felt a little strange. How could her higher-ups know that Ling Chen was here and even knew that he had subdued the kidnappers?
In fact, just after Ling Chen finished talking with Ye Liangyong, the latter immediately called her leader, resulting in this arrangement being made. However, Ling Chen and her would not be privy to such details.
It was late evening by the time the kidnappers were dealt with.
Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Nanrong Wanqing could not help but urge, “Can we go back now?”
“Right away.” Ling Chen started the car and continued on the road.
He originally wanted to send Xiao Hua back to the dojo. However, seeing Nanrong Wanqing so anxious, he decided to send her home first. Besides, there were guests at home, and he was embarrassed to delay Nanrong Wanqing any longer. Ye Liangyong and Zhu Xiaozhu were still on the plane anyway and it would take an hour for them to arrive in Donghai City. It should be fine to send Xiao Hua back later.
After a ten minutes’ drive, the Santana slowly reached the Regal Villa and entered the gates.
Before he could get out of the car, Ling Chen saw the lights outside flickering on, and Su Lin the little lass running out of the door. The corner of his mouth was slightly raised, and he was about to call out a greeting. However, before he could say anything, his eyes were attracted by the man behind Su Lin.
The man had a straight posture, with a handsome appearance. He looked very prim and proper, with a soft smile hanging on his face, he exuded an elegant temperament with every move he made. He was the rare breed of a beautiful man.
While Ling Chen was looking at him, the man was similarly observing him as well. Their gaze met in mid-air and somehow, a strange feeling emerged in Ling Chen’s heart. The number of people he had seen was countless, yet the man in front of him was like a bottomless lake, that one could not see to the bottom of.
This man should be a guest of the Nanrong family.
“Ling Chen, you bast…”
When she saw Ling Chen, the rage that Su Lin had been holding back burst out, and she started to scold angrily. However, as soon as the words left her mouth, she immediately thought of Zhu Hong standing behind her and quickly swallowed the ‘tard’ syllable. She rapidly changed her tone, “How come you are only back now? It’s almost seven o’clock.”
“Why are you asking so much? I already said I had something on.” Ling Chen casually said and walked to the door of the front passenger seat. At this moment, he suddenly noticed that Nanrong Wanqing, who was sitting in the front seat, was looking out through the car window. Following her line of sight, his gaze fell on the handsome man.
At the same time, the man was also staring intently at the window, with deep affection in his eyes. It seemed as if the gaze of the two could penetrate the barrier of the window and meet together.
For some reason, seeing the actions of the two, a baffling sense of sourness flashed across Ling Chen’s heart.
He cursed inwardly. He was merely an employee, and the two had nothing to do with himself. There was no reason why he should feel any sourness in his heart. Thinking of this, he pulled open the car door and supported Nanrong Wanqing’s thin waist with one hand. He then carried her out of the car.
His sudden actions instantly resulted in Zhu Hong’s eyes narrowing, and there was a cold gleam in his eyes.
Adhering to Ling Chen’s muscular chest, Nanrong Wanqing was long accustomed to it. However, with the handsome man watching, a touch of shame dotted her face, that seemed like it had remained unchanged for thousands of years. She did not dare to look directly into the other person’s eyes, biting her lip and whispered urgently, “Hurry up and let me down!”
Under the heavens, was there a man who did not like beauties, especially the heavenly ones?
“Sister Xiaozhu?” Nanrong Wanqing found the name somewhat familiar
