Chen Xuan chuckled, "How did you come to associate this with me?"

Lin Wanxi snorted, "Do you think I have a brain that doesn't function?"

"Yesterday afternoon, perhaps I wouldn't have considered it, but now, piecing things together, it's definitely related to you."

Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile, knowing he couldn't hide this from Lin Wanxi, "Sigh, having a clever wife isn't entirely a good thing, can't keep a single secret."

Lin Wanxi shot him a glance, "So you're admitting it? Why did you do it?"

"Because they deserved it!"

Chen Xuan's expression was calm, "Sun Yongkang asked Li Zijiang for help to arrange ten guards to kill me, should I just let it go like that?"

"Even if I'm more generous and don't trouble them, they'd still make a move against me!"

"They might even threaten you! Rather than waiting until that point to act, it's better to strike first and eliminate future troubles!"

Lin Wanxi sighed, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming you, just feeling uneasy."

"After all, you've killed people, and if you're held accountable, your life would be ruined!"

Chen Xuan waved his hand with a smile, "Wanxi, I'm not boasting, but I never leave loose ends."

"Starting with Zhou Ping'an and later Zhang Peng, they all died by my hand, and has anyone held me responsible?"

Lin Wanxi rolled her eyes, "Fine, you're skilled, handled it cleanly, left no evidence."

"But Sun Yongkang and Li Zijiang have direct connections with the Li Family! By doing this, you've completely become enemies with the Li Family, have you considered the consequences?"

Hahaha...

Chen Xuan laughed heartily, "Don't worry, maybe the Li Family suspects me, but they can't produce solid evidence."

Lin Wanxi shook her head, "Do those big families solve things by normal means?"

"They've always been used to being domineering, they don't need evidence, just suspicion will lead to serious consequences!"

"Recently, keep a low profile and pretend this never happened, try not to provoke the Li Family."

"Alright, I'll listen to you."

Chen Xuan said with a smile, "Provided the Li Family doesn't corner me, otherwise I won't endure silently."

"I swear, you really don't regard anyone, do you think you're invincible!" Lin Wanxi said irritably, "Anyway, for now, listen to me."

"Even if the day comes when the Li Family finds us, don't stick out, let me handle the negotiations first."

Hehehe...

Chen Xuan laughed, "Wanxi, you're protecting me in your way!"

Lin Wanxi glanced at him, "I just don't want to be dragged down by you! Stop flattering yourself!"

Chen Xuan shook his head with a smile, this was the only unappealing trait of Lin Sister.

Stubborn as a mule!

Clearly cares about him, yet refuses to admit it.

Strong-willed women always have this drawback.

At this moment, Chen Xuan received a call from security, saying a woman wanted to see him at the company's entrance.

Chen Xuan paused, immediately thinking of Ling Xiaoxiao.

Has she found her way here?

Quickly went downstairs and arrived at the company entrance.

It turned out to be a woman in her thirties, not Ling Xiaoxiao.

Not too beautiful, but quite elegant.

"You're Mr. Chen Xuan, right?" the woman greeted first, "I'm Ling Xiaoxiao's agent, you can call me Sister Fang."

Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "What do you want with me?"

"Ms. Ling asked me to invite you for a meal to express her gratitude," Sister Fang said softly.

"No need." Chen Xuan refused outright without thinking.

Sister Fang looked surprised, staring at Chen Xuan meaningfully; there were still people who would refuse Ling Xiaoxiao's invitation!

Even in Capital City, many wealthy young men compete to have a meal with Ling Xiaoxiao.

But unexpectedly, this Chen Xuan wasn't moved at all, directly declining.

"Mr. Chen, Ms. Ling wants to discuss something with you," Sister Fang quickly said.

Chen Xuan's expression changed slightly, not refusing this time, "Alright, I'll go with you."

"Great, Mr. Chen, please get in the car."

Sister Fang gestured, and the two left by car.

They arrived at a high-end hotel room.

Ling Xiaoxiao was waiting in the room for Chen Xuan.

Upon meeting, Ling Xiaoxiao showed an excited expression, "Mr. Chen, sorry for disturbing you."

"I wanted to invite you for a meal to express my gratitude."

At this moment, Sister Fang pushed in a food cart, clearly to dine in the hotel room.

Ling Xiaoxiao explained, "Because of my special identity, dining at a restaurant would cause unnecessary trouble."

"Some paparazzi would seize the opportunity to sneak a shot, make wild guesses, and cause Mr. Chen unnecessary life disturbances. Dining in the room is my apology, Mr. Chen."

Chen Xuan smiled, "You've thought it through thoroughly."

Ling Xiaoxiao poured the wine personally, smiling, "Mr. Chen, a toast to you, aside from expressing thanks, I have a favor to ask."

"I'd like to hire you as my personal bodyguard, you can name your price."

Chen Xuan chuckled, surprised by such an unexpected proposition.

"I'm curious, Ms. Ling, how personal do you mean?" Chen Xuan asked with a playful smile, touching his wine glass.
