"Fine, I'll hand it over!"
"I... I have no assets left in the capital..."
"I won't give it up. Wang Er Zhu has gone too far! I'll rally other merchants to retaliate!"
...
As soon as the bodyguards finished speaking, the scene erupted into a cacophony.
The bodyguards remained silent, merely jotting down everyone's names in secret.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed. The Japanese merchants who handed over their assets were alive, while those who refused stubbornly all met with inexplicable deaths!
This incident caused quite a stir in the upper echelons of the capital. The families of the Japanese merchants even went to the police station!
However, due to a lack of evidence and Lin Yi's deliberate protection, the matter was suppressed.
Thus, all the assets of the Japanese merchants in the capital were acquired by Er Zhu!
This outcome undoubtedly infuriated the Japanese merchants, but out of fear of Er Zhu's identity, they could only vent their anger in silence.
From then on, merchants from all walks of life in the capital showed Er Zhu even greater respect. Many reclusive families even actively tried to curry favor, but Er Zhu turned them all away.
Xiao Tian Huizi naturally heard the news. Thinking of the humiliated Japanese merchants fleeing and then recalling Er Zhu standing tall above the masses, a faint smile touched her lips.
For over twenty years, she had never encountered such a powerful and perfect man!
It was a pity that Wang Er Zhu was already taken, and she dared not make a move rashly!
Never mind, it was just a fleeting liking. Perhaps he wasn't as good as she imagined?
Xiao Tian Huizi took a deep breath, trying to shift her attention elsewhere. Just then, her company manager rushed over in a panic.
"Madam President, it's bad! Our security company is in a panic after hearing about the Japanese merchants. All our top experts have resigned and left. The security company is on the verge of bankruptcy!"
"What? Quickly prepare the car. I need to go to Mr. Wang's house!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Tian Huizi's face instantly darkened. For some reason, when she encountered difficulties, Er Zhu was the first person she thought of.
When she arrived at Er Zhu's house, she realized that although Er Zhu was involved in many industries, he didn't own a security company. What was she doing here?
Xiao Tian Huizi stood up, about to leave, when Er Zhu slowly came downstairs.
Seeing Er Zhu's elegant demeanor, Xiao Tian Huizi's feet felt as if they were glued to the ground, unable to move.
"Miss Huizi, do you need something from me?"
Er Zhu, ignoring Huizi's affectionate gaze, asked with a somewhat cold tone.
"My security company has some problems. Can you... can you help me?"
Seeing Er Zhu's displeased expression, Huizi quickly averted her gaze and asked tentatively and cautiously.
Although Wang Er Zhu didn't have business in this area, with his powerful connections, he should be able to help her, right?
"Mm, I recently acquired a security company and can sell it to you at a low price."
As Xiao Tian Huizi anxiously awaited the result, Er Zhu nodded slightly and handed her a contract.
Fang's Security Group?
Looking at the name on the document, Xiao Tian Huizi's eyes nearly fell out of their sockets.
Fang's Security Group was the largest security company in China, and even she envied it. Yet Wang Er Zhu was selling it to her at a low price so casually!
She had always heard others say that the lives of the rich were unimaginable. Today, she truly wanted to tell Er Zhu these words!
"Thank you! You can come to me anytime if you need anything. I am now the heir of the Xiao Tian family!"
Xiao Tian Huizi hugged the documents and bowed respectfully to Er Zhu, her eyes filled with gratitude.
"Mm, it's just a small matter, no need to mention it."
Er Zhu merely smiled slightly, waved his hand dismissively, and showed her the door.
To others, such companies might seem large, but to him, they were mere ants.
If it weren't for the fact that the company's boss had offended his bodyguards, he wouldn't even bother with such a small company.
"By the way, you have a security company, so are you a martial artist?"
Just as Xiao Tian Huizi was about to leave, Er Zhu suddenly thought of something and asked.
A security company couldn't be run by just anyone; it was like a martial arts school. If the president couldn't control their subordinates, the company would soon collapse.
"Yes, I've been practicing martial arts since I was young. I'm now a nine-dan in Japanese martial arts!"
Xiao Tian Huizi nodded slightly, answering Er Zhu's question, and then introduced Japanese martial arts to Er Zhu in detail.
Japanese martial arts was a martial art that had been passed down in Japan for hundreds of years and was the most prominent martial art in Japan. There were a total of nine dan ranks, with the first dan being the most basic and the ninth dan being the highest level!
"Mm, then I happen to need a female bodyguard. Let's have a spar."
As soon as Xiao Tian Huizi finished speaking, Er Zhu said while assuming a combat-ready stance.
Of course, he wouldn't hurt Xiao Tian Huizi. He just wanted to test her skills.
"Alright!"
Xiao Tian Huizi instinctively wanted to refuse, but thinking of Fang's Security Group, she nodded.
Roar!
With a roar, Xiao Tian Huizi launched a flying kick. She was so fast that Er Zhu could even feel the wind.
But Er Zhu still managed to grab her ankle, and no matter how hard Xiao Tian Huizi struggled, she couldn't break free!
Xiao Tian Huizi's face turned red. She exerted more force and kicked out with her other leg, only to find that both her legs were caught by Er Zhu!
"Mr. Wang, please let go, I..."
Xiao Tian Huizi looked up at Er Zhu, filled with shame and indignation. Her face turned even redder!
She had practiced martial arts for years, but had never felt so humiliated!
She suddenly felt that in Er Zhu's eyes, she wasn't a top-ranked martial artist, but rather an ordinary person who didn't even qualify as the first dan!
"Mm, your strength and speed are good. Xiao Mei's safety will be in your hands from now on."
However, Er Zhu didn't pay attention to this. He glanced at Xiao Tian Huizi's taut, long legs, nodded slightly, and let her go.
To him, these moves were naturally child's play, but to other experts, they were invincible!
"Ah? Oh, okay!"
Watching Er Zhu's retreating back, Xiao Tian Huizi, though not fully processing it, still nodded respectfully.
It seemed like a shameful thing for the future heir of the Xiao Tian family to be a personal bodyguard to someone else, but Xiao Tian Huizi felt proud!
Because she knew very well that Er Zhu was an existence that the Xiao Tian family could only look up to!
In the future, if the Xiao Tian family offended Er Zhu, they would undoubtedly fall, just like...
...the Japanese merchants who fled back to Japan in disgrace, or even worse!
"Xiao Mei, Miss Huizi will be your personal bodyguard from now on."
Just as Xiao Tian Huizi was lost in thought, Er Zhu's voice brought her back to reality. Seeing the beautiful woman before her, Xiao Tian Huizi suppressed the sourness in her heart and proactively extended her hand.
