Captain Ma and Lin Xiaotian walked out, both with incredibly bright smiles on their faces.
Especially Captain Ma, who followed behind.
His usually stern face was now filled with irrepressible excitement.
It was clear that Lin Xiaotian had benefited him greatly, and the security personnel were all thoughtful as they looked at Lin Xiaotian with even more fervent gazes.
Lin Xiaotian clapped his hands with a smile, "Alright, I've introduced you all to him. For the next period, he will be your captain. I hope everyone can get along peacefully."
Captain Ma walked over with a smile and shook Chu Xiongfei's hand warmly, "Welcome. We will strictly follow any instructions you give. Please take care of us in the future."
Chu Xiongfei had been standing there earlier without anyone paying him any attention, and he felt very awkward. However, he didn't dare to cause trouble with those people.
There were at least thirty security personnel present, and each of them was a burly man whose physique could take on two or three of him.
He remembered the saying about gangs; if he somehow displeased these people and they ganged up on him, it would be a beating for nothing.
Captain Ma's current warmth made him feel a little overwhelmed, and he didn't dare to put on airs. They exchanged pleasantries.
Lin Xiaotian had already walked out. He needed to prepare some things.
When he arrived at the office, Chu Nianxue turned her gaze towards him, a hint of displeasure in her eyes.
"You know what my father is like. Why did you arrange for him to be in security now?"
"And I heard from the secretary that he's even going to be captain?"
"I spent a lot of money to invite Captain Ma. He is very capable and upright. In his twelve years here, not a single item has ever been stolen under his watch."
"Furthermore, Captain Ma fears no one's influence. If he hadn't strictly guarded the underground vault, who knows how much the traitors in the Chu family would have stolen."
"You're replacing Captain Ma just like this. If he's unhappy or has any objections, it will put our company in a lot of trouble."
"Besides Captain Ma, I can't think of anyone else I can trust, unless you're willing to take on the management role."
As Chu Nianxue spoke, a flicker of anticipation appeared in her eyes.
If Lin Xiaotian were to truly become the security captain of the vault, she wouldn't have to worry about its protection at all.
Among everyone, Lin Xiaotian was the one she trusted the most.
A brilliant smile appeared on Lin Xiaotian's face, "Wife, how can I snatch a position from your father? He's the security captain now."
"As for Old Ma, I've definitely discussed it with him. He's made such great contributions to the company, how could I possibly mistreat him!"
"Besides, you understand your father's personality better than I do. He won't be able to last long here. Since he wants to be in management, let's give him a position. He'll get tired of the restrictions and leave on his own before long."
"And he won't cause you any trouble in this position. Let him stir up trouble on his own!"
Hearing this, Chu Nianxue nodded helplessly.
As things stood, there was no better option.
Other positions were all filled, and she couldn't just move existing employees to make room for her father.
Moreover, she knew her father's personality too well.
She could only sigh in her heart.
Lin Xiaotian's smile became even brighter, "Wife, are you feeling conflicted right now? What if he causes some other trouble for you, or wants to switch to another position in a few days? Will you have to worry about it again?"
Chu Nianxue nodded, a hint of melancholy in her eyes.
She truly envied other people's fathers, whose broad shoulders were always a warm harbor shielding their children from the storm. But for her, it was the other way around.
When he was out of money, he'd come to her. If this daughter didn't comply, he'd make things difficult, even resorting to harsh words sometimes.
Lin Xiaotian leaned in with a smile, "Wife, I have a great idea. Do you want to hear it? I guarantee he won't bother you again, and he'll even avoid you when he sees you."
Chu Nianxue's eyes showed a hint of wariness, and her pretty face tensed up. She deliberately put on a cold tone, "Just tell me your idea directly, don't come so close to me."
"Last time you..."
Her face flushed slightly, but she maintained a cold expression, her pretty face still taut.
This scoundrel wasn't a good person either. If he got close to her, he was definitely up to something bad.
Lin Xiaotian not only didn't move away but leaned even closer, his smile incredibly bright, "As long as you kiss me, I promise I'll make him leave the company within three days, and he won't dare to bother you again."
"And he won't have any trouble, he'll just avoid you."
Chu Nianxue's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Then tell me the method first."
"If I tell you, you won't kiss me. If my wife plays coy lately, I can't do anything about it."
Lin Xiaotian chuckled wickedly and moved even closer, leaning his cheek towards her. "We're already an old married couple, there's nothing to be shy about with a kiss."
Chu Nianxue pushed directly at Lin Xiaotian's face with her small hand, "No."
"Sigh!"
Lin Xiaotian deliberately feigned a sigh, his eyes filled with a look of disappointment and distress.
It was as if his spirit had been drained in an instant.
Chu Nianxue's heart ached slightly. It was the first time she had seen such a change in Lin Xiaotian's expression.
Had her direct refusal hurt his feelings?
On second thought, she felt it was possible. Lin Xiaotian had always helped her selflessly from the beginning. She had never been able to help Lin Xiaotian at all. Even the most heartless person would probably be melted by his warmth.
And she had already silently acknowledged his place in her heart.
A kiss was nothing.
However, she had no experience in relationships. Although she had made up her mind, her inner shyness made her unsure of what to do.
At this moment, Lin Xiaotian suddenly cupped her flawless and beautiful face.
A smile reappeared on his face, "Wife, if you don't kiss me, then I'll kiss you."
"I know you want to, but you're just shy."
"You..."
Before Chu Nianxue could utter a word, her red lips were sealed.
Her eyes widened in disbelief, her heart pounding like a startled deer.
