The two of them struck a deal, exchanged phone numbers, completed the paperwork, and only then did Zhu Bufan leisurely make his way out of the police station.

Just as he stepped outside the station, Zhu Bufan saw Chu Qingcheng driving a sports car, hurrying over in his direction.

The girl seemed quite worried about him.

The moment he saw Chu Qingcheng appear, warmth flooded Zhu Bufan's heart, and he felt moved.

"Everything's alright??"

Seeing Zhu Bufan emerge unscathed, Chu Qingcheng couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

Earlier on, Wu Chi had informed her that Zhu Bufan was taken away by the police due to assaulting someone from the Yunlin Group.

Chu Qingcheng had indeed thought that Zhu Bufan would be the one getting beaten up; to her surprise, it turned out he was the one who gave the other party a thrashing. This was quite unexpected.

But this was the police station, so it was not very convenient to ask about these matters.

Chu Qingcheng and Zhu Bufan went back to the company together.

...

Having just returned to the company, Chu Qingcheng was still shocked to see a whopping two million in cash on the desk.

After all, the boss of the Yunlin Group was known to be sly and ruthless, not to mention a figure from the underworld. How could he possibly hand over a debt of two million so easily to Zhu Bufan?

It simply defied logic.

No matter how much Chu Qingcheng racked her brain, she could not understand it.

"Tell me, how did you manage to recover the two million debt?" Chu Qingcheng sat on the chair, asking earnestly.

"Let me take a sip of tea first, and I'll explain it slowly..."

Zhu Bufan nodded, stepped forward, picked up a cup of fragrant green tea from Chu Qingcheng's desk, and started sipping noisily.

After finishing, he even had the nerve to praise it: "Not bad, good tea, sweet aftertaste..."

"Jerk!"

But Chu Qingcheng was already turning green with irritation, "That cup was the one I was drinking from earlier."

"You already drank from it? No big deal, I don't mind!"

Zhu Bufan chuckled shamelessly.

You might not mind, but I do!

At this moment, Chu Qingcheng had the fleeting desire to murder Zhu Bufan.

She knew that because she had just drunk from this cup of green tea and now Zhu Bufan had drunk from it too, didn't that mean she had indirectly kissed this scoundrel once?

Thinking of that disgusting image, Chu Qingcheng couldn't help but feel nauseated.

"Actually, that Mr. Yun is really a decent person. As soon as I arrived at their company and spoke briefly with him, he immediately felt I was a kindred spirit in life. He was so moved that he wept tears like rain and handed over two million in cash without a second word... He's really not bad. If it weren't for my hurry to come back and pay you, I wouldn't mind sitting a while longer at his place..."

Hearing this, Chu Qingcheng's alluring eyes couldn't help but express her speechlessness; this guy was clearly spinning a tale!

However, before she could get angry, her phone rang.

The call was from Yunlin, and as soon as she pressed the answer button, the other side spoke with a somewhat explosive tone: "Hmph... President Chu, you've already got the money, right? I admire how you have such talented people at your disposal."

"But let me give you a piece of advice, President Chu... It's always best to leave a way out. Since you've been so ruthless, there's simply no need for any future cooperation between us."

After speaking, Yunlin hung up the phone without giving Chu Qingcheng a chance to respond.

"What... what on earth is going on??"

Hearing the other party sound pretty angry, Chu Qingcheng felt extremely frustrated. It was well-known that the Yunlin Group, though ruthless, had placed large orders in cooperation with her company.

Now, losing this partner meant a significant loss in revenue.

"Asshole, you made me lose a big deal!"

Chu Qingcheng came to her senses and couldn't help but gnash her teeth while casting a glance at Zhu Bufan, cursing out loud.

Zhu Bufan responded with a wry smile, clearly Yunlin had not said anything good just now.

Otherwise, Chu Qingcheng wouldn't be so furious.

"Damn... this old guy, no sense of loyalty at all. He was all chatty with me before, and now he turns his back on me faster than flipping a page in a book!"

"Asshole... Tell me, you made me lose a big deal, how should I punish you!" Chu Qingcheng said, very annoyed.

Zhu Bufan simply shrugged his shoulders, analyzing, "Actually, a blessing in disguise, this Yunlin Group is essentially a shoddy company, there's really no need for cooperation."

This hit home for Chu Qingcheng.

Because the Yunlin Company was indeed a shoddy company, continuing to work with them might bring in a lot of orders, but there's no telling when a disaster could strike.

Better to take Zhu Bufan's advice and not cooperate from the get-go.

However, these words made Chu Qingcheng see Zhu Bufan in a new light. The guy was pretty impressive, able to discern the situation at a glance.

Looking at Zhu Bufan, Chu Qingcheng couldn't help but grow curious.

What's the background of this guy? He's skilled and has such a unique approach to dealing with things.

"Boss Chu... staring at me like that, couldn't be that you've fallen for me, could it?"

Zhu Bufan grinned, completely unaware of the meaning of the word 'shame'.

"You... wishful thinking!"

Chu Qingcheng glared at him irritably, her cheeks flushing red.

...

After the debt collection and police station incident, it wasn't long after Zhu Bufan returned to the company that it was time to clock out.

Chu Qingcheng, after finishing her work, just got back to the villa and was about to rest, when her phone rang.

Looking at the caller ID on her phone, Chu Qingcheng sighed, massaged her head, and then pressed the answer button, saying, "Dad... is there something you need?"

"Girl, can't your dad call you for no reason?"

An admonishing voice of a middle-aged man came from the other end of the phone.

This middle-aged man is Chu Qingcheng's father, Chu Xuande!

"Dad, that's not it, I'm just a bit tired and wanted to rest for a bit..." Chu Qingcheng said wearily.

"Alright, just a few words, it won't take much of your time." Chu Xuande nodded, speaking with a hint of concern, "No matter how busy you are, take care of your health. Remember the thing I mentioned last time..."

"That matter?"

"I said last time I would send two soldiers over to test out the skills of that bodyguard you hired! They've already arrived in Qingyang City, should be at your place soon," Chu Xuande spoke.

"Got it, Dad. If there's nothing else, I'm going to hang up now..."

Without waiting for Chu Xuande's response, Chu Qingcheng hung up the phone first.

At this moment, Chu Qingcheng was simply too exhausted. Dealing with company matters all day and finally getting home to rest, naturally, she wouldn't miss out on this precious time. Before sleeping, she made a call to have Zhu Bufan come over to her villa.

...

"This girl..."

Hearing the busy tone beep in the phone, Chu Xuande couldn't help but chuckle wryly and immediately dialed Zhu Bufan's number.

"Hello, officer!"

Zhu Bufan answered the phone without hesitation, speaking respectfully, "What's the matter, just tell me..."
