The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard-Chapter 20 - Security Manager
20: Chapter 20 Security Manager
20 -20 Security Manager
“Pah!
As if you are softhearted.
When you were at the bank…” At this point, Tang Su suddenly stopped talking.
She remembered the woman who was brutally impaled on the marble column and felt a chill in her heart.
Who knows if he wasn’t some sort of perverted killer in the past.
Tang Su’s expression was fully caught by Ye Tian’s eyes.
Of course, he knew what she was thinking.
“To tell you the truth, not only was my uncle an ordinary soldier, but he was also a retired special forces member.
I, Ye Tian, am the only male heir of the Ye family for nine generations.
How could I not have any self-defense skills?
You don’t have to be afraid.
You saw the situation; without resorting to that, I honestly don’t think I could have taken on three men at once.”
“So you were not worried that I could have been killed!” At this, Tang Su suddenly grew angry.
If the robber had been provoked at that moment, she would likely have been the first to be shot dead.
Ye Tian looked calmly at this suddenly enraged woman and said slowly, “If they had the brains to rob a bank, they would have guessed I made my move for you.
Besides, suddenly losing two accomplices, what do you think he would do?
Without help, everything is just talk.”
“But he still had a gun.” frёewebηovel.cѳm
“The shotgun he had was a scatter gun with only two bullets, and after firing twice, he’d need to reload, which he couldn’t afford to waste time on.
Those two bullets couldn’t be squandered lightly.
A person like him wouldn’t be unclear about the performance of the weapon in his hands,” it was as though he recalled White Beard’s shot and Ye Tian’s tone carried a hint of apology, “Sorry, I really didn’t anticipate that shot of his; otherwise, I wouldn’t have…
sorry.”
Hiss!
Tang Su took a sharp breath, feeling more frightened the more she thought about it.
What Ye Tian said seemed logical, but it was just his personal analysis.
In other words, it was all a wild guess on his part.
Thankfully, he guessed right.
But if he had guessed wrong, this “sorry” might well be said to her grave.
Ye Tian fished out a cigarette from his pocket, and Tang Su recognized it as the kind that could only be found in her store, with golden stripes.
She guessed that he must have taken it from the store.
“What, don’t have a light?” Tang Su saw Ye Tian mouth a cigarette and fumble around before taking it back out and sniffing it under his nose.
Ye Tian nodded, “Must have lost it.
Never mind, not smoking…”
Before he finished speaking, a spark of yellow flame lit up in the small car—it was Tang Su’s lighter, the kind that could be found everywhere in convenience stores for one yuan each.
“…Thank you.” The tobacco lit up quickly in the flame, producing a numbingly aromatic taste in his mouth.
“Just said ‘sorry’, now busy saying ‘thank you’; you really are quite the model of civility,” her tone dripping with sarcasm.
Ye Tian took a drag from his cigarette, his head lowered, hiding his expression, only his twitching lips visible, “Manager Tang…” he started, but then fell silent again.
Tang Su, looking at his handsome side profile, suddenly really wanted to know what he would say next.
Regardless, she had to admit that she had indeed been captivated by this man named Ye Tian.
His remarkable powers of observation and judgment showcased at his initial interview for the job, as well as the image of him in the bar’s private room, shirtless like the Nine Heavens War God, had left a profound impression on her.
A term suddenly popped into her mind—care.
Yes, that was it.
“Manager Tang…”
Again he stopped short, and Tang Su couldn’t bear it, “What on earth are you trying to say!”
“The green light is on,” Ye Tian looked up, his eyes meeting Tang Su’s, “Manager Tang, the green light is on.”
Her emotional defenses instantly crumbled.
A hint of disappointment flashed through Tang Su’s heart.
At the same time, she understood that the defensive line in her heart, which had held since the wound inflicted by that man, was crumbling yet again.
“Ye Tian, don’t do the job at Waterfront for now.
I’ll arrange a new job for you, but it might be a bit far away.
However, the salary is quite high,” she said in a tone that brooked no argument.
“Alright, Manager Tang, I have no objections.”
The black Toyota faded into the traffic.
Even if Tang Su had not said those words, Ye Tian had no intention of continuing to work there.
After the bank robbery incident, Ye Tian believed that many people must be watching him.
Otherwise, why would the police officer who went to the hospital to take Tang Su’s statement that day specifically not question him?
This kind of oversight would not be tolerated in the police system; even if it was just for show, procedures had to be followed.
Since this wasn’t the case, there was only one explanation: someone must have already tipped off the police.
Looking at the somewhat gray sky outside, Ye Tian felt like taking a deep breath or shouting out loud, but in the end, he held back.
This place did not offer him the freedom to breathe as he wished.
As for Tang Su’s arrangement for Ye Tian, it was essentially to place him as a security manager at a more remote bar.
Her intentions were clear: to distract herself from the man who distracted her.
Ye Tian saved himself the trouble of tendering his resignation and cheerfully reported for duty.
Despite feeling slightly unwilling about the security manager title, upon seeing Tang Su’s frigid face, he dared not voice any complaints.
Things progressed smoothly.
After shamelessly freeloaded his last boxed meal, Ye Tian left under the envious, jealous, and resentful gazes of the other security guards.
As he waved goodbye with a “Take care, everyone,” they all shot him looks of utter contempt, while inwardly thinking: if they’d hide behind others during a fight, could they too become a security manager?
Meanwhile, in the third-floor office with its grand and bright glass windows, stood a tall girl dressed like a student, her simple white T-shirt paired with tight light jeans and white canvas shoes.
Her waterfall-like shiny black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and her face was doll-like, with clear and innocent eyes.
Following her gaze, the object of her attention was none other than Ye Tian squatting by the roadside, waiting for a taxi.
“Sis, don’t tell me, you’ve been mesmerized by this kid?
I really didn’t see what’s good about him.
He’s not even handsome, and he’s got a sleazy look…
Look, he’s still sneaking glances at girls in short skirts.” The innocent girl held a box of Want Want milk, her expressions shifting with her words.
“Shut up, you little brat, don’t talk nonsense!” Tang Su sat on the sofa with a cup of steaming coffee in her hand, not having taken a single sip, as if in a daze, until the innocent girl spoke.
Then she snapped back to reality, “He’s just a small security guard, what’s so strange about that?
What, don’t the residential complexes in your family have security guards?
Or are you actually interested in a little nightclub security guard like mine?”
