Chapter 24: Chapter 24 Pei Jue Violently Beats Lu Mingchuan Chapter 24: Chapter 24 Pei Jue Violently Beats Lu Mingchuan The black car smoothly drove out of the range of Qiao Xi Hospital.
“Earlier, what you saw was not my girlfriend.”
Qingwu: “…”
“It was my secretary.”
Qingwu: “…”
What’s it to her?
As one of the three major leaders of the Dark Web, it was normal for Pei Jue to have several secretaries, not to mention that the secretary lady looked like a woman with very strong abilities, and her professional skills should be quite impressive.
“That’s good.”
Pei Jue continued to explain, “The outstanding abilities and highlights of women in the workplace cannot be replaced, so I employ many female employees.”
Qingwu nodded, “I agree. My brother’s company also has many female employees. He says no one falls in love with the boss at work, character, and professional capabilities always surpass gender.”
Pei Jue laughed lightly, “Your brother and I think alike.”
“Male employees can fall in love with their bosses too. It has nothing to do with gender.”
Pei Jue: “…”
That wasn’t what he meant!
Pei Jue touched his nose to hide the stiffness at the corner of his mouth.
“You must have heard about Tarzan’s entry.”
“Yes, Tarzan is likely here to meet with the Drug King.”
As the leader of the Blue Whale Assassin Organization, Tarzan actually chose to meet with the Southeast Asia Drug Lord in Hua Country’s capital!
“What do you think?”
Qingwu glanced at him faintly and said, “The Drug King wants the Hua Country market, and Tarzan wants to eliminate us. It’s just a temporary alliance.”
Both were foxes navigating the Dark Web, and together, Tarzan and the Drug King’s cunning could circle the earth three times. They each had no less than eight fox tails behind them.
Hearing her say “us,” the corners of Pei Jue’s mouth lifted slightly, an indescribable pleasure filled his heart, sweet as honey.
Qingwu saw the smile at the corner of Pei Jue’s mouth, feeling a bit speechless.
Had Singer gotten a brain injury during some mission?
She just said that Tarzan and the Drug King wanted to team up to eliminate them, and he could still smile?
Qiao Xi Hospital’s neurology department wasn’t bad either; there should be a chance to have Singer checked out.
…
Changrong Group, President’s Office.
Shen Boyi, dressed in a suit and tie, sat behind the massive desk. His shirt was without a single crease, and his sculpted, handsome face exuded a refined elegance typical of high society gentlemen.
His special assistant, wearing a business suit, stood respectfully by his side, “President Shen, we’ve investigated everything about the young lady’s past in the Lin Family.”
“Speak.”
“The young lady did not have a good life in the Lin Family. Her monthly pocket money was two thousand yuan, and due to frequent deductions, she only had five thousand yuan in pocket money for the entire last year, which was barely enough to pay for her tuition herself.”
“The current Miss Lin Xuecheng of the Lin Family grew up with her, and her monthly pocket money exceeded five thousand yuan, receiving a total of one hundred thousand yuan last year, all given secretly by Madam Lin.”
Shen Boyi rubbed his temples, suppressing the anger in his heart, “Continue!”
“The young lady originally had a marriage engagement with the eldest young master of the Lu Family in Ning City, Lu Mingchuan. However, the Lu Family’s young master is very fickle. The Lin Family wanted Lin Xuecheng to marry the Lu Family’s young master, so they drove the young lady out. When the old chief sent someone to fetch the young lady, they even suffered humiliation.”
“The young lady’s kidnapping yesterday was instigated by the Lin Family mother and daughter. They hope to sell the young lady to a mountain village, wishing she would never return in her lifetime.”
The special assistant was alarmed.
This family was unbelievably wicked!
Shen Boyi’s grip on the steel pen almost caused it to snap in two!
“Good, very good! Damn the Lin Family! It’s okay to be a little poor, but they actually treated my sister this cruelly!”
Shen Boyi was always known to be amiable and elegant, it was the first time the special assistant had seen him this angry.
“President Shen, President Mo of Huaying Group has invited you to discuss business at X Bar tonight. Additionally, Lu Mingchuan will also be at X Bar tonight.”
Shen Boyi sneered, “Tell President Mo I’ll be there right away.”
“Yes.”
…
X Bar.
The massive dance floor was crammed with people. As soon as Qingwu stepped inside, she felt a few people deliberately bumping into her arm.
Pei Jue grabbed Qingwu’s hand, pulling her to his side, his tall figure casting a shadow that enveloped Qingwu.
“Sorry, she’s with someone.”
Those who intended to hit on her saw Pei Jue’s icy face and instinctively took a step back.
Qingwu was suddenly pulled into his arms, her face pressed against Pei Jue’s shirt, his cologne seeming like sandalwood, faintly filling her nostrils, causing her face to slightly flush.
It was the first time Qingwu had been so close to a man. She held her breath, just about to pull away when Pei Jue’s hand pressed against her back.
“Shh, Tarzan is over there.”
He leaned close to Qingwu’s ear, his low voice tinged with barely restrained joy and intimacy, filled with magnetic hormones.
Qingwu’s face reddened further, her back stiffened as she looked in the direction Pei Jue indicated. Sure enough, she saw Tarzan drinking on a booth seat.
Qingwu had interacted with Tarzan years ago and knew his appearance. The unfamiliar man sitting at the same booth must have been the Southeast Asia Drug King!
Pei Jue’s hand patted Qingwu’s slender back, from an outsider’s perspective, it appeared as though they were embracing.
“Tarzan brought thirty assassins, and the Drug King has over fifty henchmen with him, not to mention there might be more drug lords hiding around here.”
Qingwu quickly calculated the number of people present.
Pei Jue was somewhat surprised, the little girl already figured out how many people Tarzan and the Drug King had with them in such a momentary glance?
She smelled nice, making him a bit unwilling to let go.
“Apologies for the abruptness, but to avoid being discovered by the Drug King and Tarzan, some disguise is necessary.”
Qingwu: “…”
Such disguise was truly unnecessary!
Across the booth, Lu Mingchuan’s lustful gaze swept over the graceful dancers in the dance floor, searching for tonight’s target.
“Young Master Lu, isn’t that your fiancée?”
A person beside him tapped his arm, pointing to the two people embracing at the edge of the dance floor.
The man in the black shirt was whispering something to the girl in his arms, in the ambiguous lighting Qingwu’s face was charming and mesmerizing.
Lu Mingchuan’s eyes lit up!
But he said disdainfully, “My fiancée is Chengcheng, she’s the real daughter of the Lin Family. Qingwu is just an impostor, she refused me before, but now she comes to nightclubs to work as a hostess.”
Though he said this, his feet didn’t falter, and he walked straight toward Qingwu and Pei Jue’s direction.
Lu Mingchuan adjusted his expression, forcing a greasy smile.
“Little Wu, it’s been a long time, I think about you every day!”
Qingwu: “…”
Oh, X Bar wasn’t her brother’s property, it was normal for Lu Mingchuan to be let in.
“Lu Mingchuan? If you’re sick, go to a psychiatric hospital.”
“Little Wu, how could you chase me here? Alas, although I can’t marry you, I can barely have you as my mistress…”
Lu Mingchuan believed the condition he offered was tempting enough, with a sense of assured victory.
At this moment, Pei Jue withdrew the smile from his face, looked down at Qingwu, “Sorry, give me a minute.”
Lu Mingchuan didn’t even notice Pei Jue by Qingwu’s side, assuming he was Qingwu’s client for the evening.
Pei Jue casually rolled up his sleeves, revealing a well-built arm, his fist the size of a sandbag landed directly on Lu Mingchuan’s face!
“Ah!”
Blow after blow like a storm crashing down, Lu Mingchuan immediately felt several teeth in his mouth shatter!
“You know who I am…”
The shiny leather shoe stepped onto Lu Mingchuan’s face, Pei Jue grinding down mercilessly, his voice cold as a nighttime Asura!
“Just an ill-bred bastard.”
With a wave of his hand, someone emerged from the shadows, dragging the half-dead Lu Mingchuan away as if he were a dead fish.
Such things weren’t uncommon in the bar; the lights were dim enough that barely anyone noticed Lu Mingchuan getting beaten.
Qingwu: “…”
Pei Jue turned around, a hint of anger still flickering in his deep eyes, he looked at Qingwu with remorse and slowly began to speak,
