บท 14: Her two bodyguards

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Xiurong stared at Ling Qingyu, waiting for an explanation. On the other hand, Ling Qingyu was conflicted, whether to confess the reality.

She didn't want a piece of harsh precarious news to affect her sister-like subordinates. But she relented under the unstoppable gaze. Raising her hands high as a gesture of surrender, she admitted defeat.

"I'm glad you didn't mention to our chief guard that I already woke up." Ling Qingyu started the topic. "I want to wrap all of my related news under the table."

"Okay but tell me, what makes you so cautious, President Ling? You weren't like this before; no matter how harsh the given realities, you are not the type to give up." Zhao Xiurong was inexplicable at her boss's attitude. This was totally unlike before. Would an accident really change a person?

Of course, Ling Qingyu was no longer an original, excluding the fact that her required memory was still missing. Only starting tomorrow would she be able to act like a strong C.E.O. again.

"Sometimes life can give us too many surprises where you're most unexpected, and I'm not hiding, to be honest, Sister Zhao. I'll wait a little while to study our company carefully to find out some moles within us. This is the perfect moment for us," Ling Qingyu came up with a reason quickly and explained her deeds.

"That explains a lot. But your expression tells me otherwise. Come, spit it out." Zhao Xiurong remained stern.

"Wow, Sister Zhao. Is that how you talk to your President? I feel like our role reversed just now." Ling Qingyu's face showed annoyance, refusing to answer.

"Don't change the topic. I don't care if you'll fire me later after I say this; I would still ask you." Zhao Xiurong raised her voice.

Holding eye contact with her for some time, Ling Qingyu relented and lay down on the bed from her sitting position.

"Actually my car accident wasn't natural. I had sufficient evidence someone was plotting against me," Ling Qingyu said out everything and covered her eyes with her right arm.

"What!" Zhao Xiurong exclaimed. "Heaven! You're 100 percent sure about this?"

Seeing Ling Qingyu didn't answer her anymore, Zhao Xiurong realized the situation was serious. But noticing the girls around her seemed not fazed at this information showed they already knew about this.

Zhao Xiurong sat down hard on the bench drained of energy. The friction with the tiles screeched. She understood the reason for calling the head of security from her company.

She glanced at the person on the bed and asked. "So, are you not worried at all right now someone would come and hurt you."

Ling Qingyu didn't reply and merely pointed her finger at Tang Ziyi and Xiao Yue. Although her direction wasn't accurate, her message was conveyed to Zhao Xiurong.

"Them?!" Zhao Xiurong was puzzled when Ling Qingyu felt safe because of the two women. Despite the fierce air around them, the two looked like they were gentlewomen along with their beauty level. She had no idea how they gave Ling Qingyu a sense of safety.

Was it because there were more companions? It seemed so.

Now the only thing left to do was to wait for the two security guards to arrive. Without them, Zhao Xiurong's heart couldn't calm down. She envied Ling Qingyu to have such calmness and realized why President Ling didn't like to intervene in the company or listen to her reports.

The room went quiet again except for the clattering made by Tang Ziyi's dexterous fingers pressing the keyboard.

An hour passed unknowingly, each of the women in their own world, while Ling Qingyu slept straightaway. It wasn't long before she woke up and got bombarded with news after news.

It was only natural for her to have a rest when she could. She was still not aware, her misogynist behavior had completely vanished. Her system was happy with her change of attitude.

It was simple, as long as someone replaced themselves, they understood completely. If she still hadn't changed, the system promised to reincarnate her many times until she changed…Hmph!

Ling Qingyu would scream to prove her innocence. Prove her wrong if anyone like her were in the same situation. She dared them to misbehave, particularly in front of these two strong women.

Huh! She really bet the life onward would suffer under the hands of these twos. Any man would flinch if they knew their background.

A knock and two women entered the room. Now the previous ample room felt congested and Ling Qingyu was woken up by the knock and commotion.

As soon as Ling Qingyu opened her eyes, the two women attracted most of her attention, because it was definitely hard to ignore them from their fierce temperament.

Compared to Tang Ziyi and Xiao Yue, the air around them affected others, displaying strict discipline and valor.

Were they better than Tang Ziyi and Xiao Yue? Ling Qingyu thought otherwise. Based on the information given by the system, her confidantes were way more frightening than they appeared to be.

In other words, they hid too deeply that people ignored them apart from their attractiveness.

Speaking of attractiveness, Ling Qingyu observed her two guards whom she called over. Her eyes said as expected; they were still gorgeous.

One of them was more alluring than the other, with short hair reaching her shoulders. Another had her hair just at the level of her neck. Both wore simple T-shirts, trousers, and sandals.

Black and white color was the main theme here. One even had black and white stripes on the T-shirt.

Ling Qingyu recognized her—Su Ruomei with longer hair, whom her memory suggested was the captain of the security guard unit.

Watching the two of them, only one thought came into her mind. System, don't tell her these women are also part of the harem? Prove her wrong!
