Li Peijiu's exquisite face was covered in seriousness, and it was suffused with a wisp of paleness. She walked down the stairs slowly as if she had yet to recover from the horrifying and bloody scene …
Chen He took a step forward and lifted her fair arm. He put the black electronic watch on her wrist as she stared at it in shock.
"From today onwards, you must wear this watch at all times. If there's any danger, press the alarm button and I'll rush over immediately," Chen He said in all seriousness. At that moment, he seemed to have changed into a different person. He became unfamiliar and domineering.
Li Peijiu nodded lightly. She was a woman after all. No matter how domineering she was, she still needed someone to protect her when she was in danger. She needed a broad chest to help her out of trouble!
As if sensing his goddess's uneasiness, Douglas gently placed his hand on her shoulder and said softly, "It's okay. Forget about what you just saw. I'm still me, the little driver that you bullied every day, Douglas."
Li Peijiu's body trembled slightly. She looked at Chen He with her beautiful eyes and stared at him for a long time.
"You said you had something to discuss with me … What is it?" Li Peijiu took a deep breath and composed herself before she asked in a magnetic voice.
"Why did the Platinum Group try so hard to assassinate you?" Chen He stared straight at Li Peijiu. "I need to hear the real answer. Don't brush me off."
Li Peijiu's pretty face froze for a moment. She fell silent.
"Is it hard to tell you?" Chen He looked at her quietly.
"This matter … involves the Global Group's important business secrets …" Li Peijiu's voice was soft with a hint of stubbornness.
"Don't you believe me?" Chen He looked at her calmly.
Li Peijiu bit her red lips and fell silent again.
After a long silence, Li Peijiu suddenly raised her beautiful eyes and stared at Chen He … At that moment, she seemed to have made an important decision.
"Alright, I'll tell you."
Chen He smiled and said, "I've been waiting for a long time."
"On the surface, Platinum Group and our Worldwide Company are fighting for a takeover in the stock market … But in fact …" Li Peijiu hesitated for a moment before saying slowly, "It's for the dozens of ports behind our Worldwide Company … Platinum Group spent so much effort to occupy and acquire our Worldwide Company just to get those dozens of ports."
"Ports?" Chen He was slightly stunned. "What's so special about those ports?"
"Those are the dozens of overseas ports in Southeast Asia … Our Worldwide Company has cooperated with the governments of Southeast Asia to invest in the construction of those dozens of coastal ports. The local governments have given us the rights to operate those ports."
"A Southeast Asian port?" Chen He's gaze turned solemn. "That coastal area is the only channel for illegal smuggling, drugs, and arms dealers …"
Li Peijiu was stunned and looked at him in shock. "How did you know?"
"Because my base is in Southeast Asia." Chen He said faintly. His base was the base of the famous Dragon Soul Mercenaries overseas. It was secretly hidden in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains in a Southeast Asian country …
"Platinum Group has tried to negotiate with me many times and tried to cooperate with us. They wanted to carry out illegal smuggling through those dozens of ports … But I rejected them all …" Li Peijiu said slowly.
"Illegal smuggling?" The corners of Douglas' mouth curled up into a meaningful smile. "It seems like the Platinum Group's business is quite extensive. Illegal smuggling is a big business …"
"Those dozens of ports are involved in a huge profit chain. All western goods and materials have to pass through those ports …" Li Peijiu's voice was a little helpless. These dozens of ports were a money-making treasure bowl, but they were also a hot potato that caused trouble.
"I'm afraid there are many illegal forces eyeing those ports, right?" Chen He said calmly.
"Yes, all the underground forces and illegal forces in Hua Xia have tried to negotiate with me to carry out illegal smuggling through those ports …"
Chen He's expression turned solemn. "Not only Hua Xia's forces, but those ports are also hot potatoes. I'm afraid even the western forces want to get involved …"
Li Peijiu frowned. "Western forces? I haven't received any invitation from the western forces yet … "
"That's because they are still hiding." Chen He's eyes turned deep. "The danger you are in is much more serious than I imagined."
Li Peijiu raised her eyebrows with a hint of stubbornness as if she was not afraid of the danger she was facing at all.
Chen He smiled when he saw the stubborn look on this hot chick's face. "Don't worry. No matter what decision you make, I will protect you."
At this moment, Li Peijiu's beautiful eyes were filled with astonishment as she stared at Chen He in a daze … Gradually, the astonishment condensed into a complicated expression …
…
It was four in the morning. The night in Shanghai was still silent.
Three vans sped forward and braked suddenly before stopping in front of a building. A group of masked men got out of the car and threw objects wrapped in white cloth in front of the building. Dark red blood stains were faintly seeping out of the white cloth … Corpses … Naked corpses!
When the sun rose from the east, the entire Shanghai city began to wake up. The previous night was stormy and murderous. Today, the red sun rose high in the sky as if everything had returned to peace.
A long Rolls-Royce slowly stopped in front of the Platinum Group. The driver opened the door respectfully. A middle-aged man in a suit sat in the car and smoked a cigar slowly. The chairman of the Platinum Group, Yao Huaqiang!
Yao Huaqiang extinguished the cigar and stepped out of the Rolls-Royce Phantom slowly. Then, he was stunned!
Bags of corpses wrapped in white cloth … were lined up in front of the Platinum Group's entrance! There were even blood stains on the white cloth!
Yao Huaqiang's face twitched slightly. It was a ferocious, cold, and almost murderous chill!
In the distance, a violent roar of an engine rang out. A black Lamborghini sped over and came to an abrupt stop. A handsome young man got out of the Lamborghini sports car. "Dad, what happened?"
"Last night, we failed again." Yao Huaqiang's face was ferocious as he stared at the bags of corpses on the ground.
The young master of the Platinum Group, Yao Can, looked at the corpses on the ground in shock. Suddenly, his face turned gloomy. "Dad, there are so many corpses. Why don't we take this opportunity to put the crime of murder on Li Peijiu?"
Yao Huaqiang shook his head slowly and said coldly, "No need. Li Peijiu is not that stupid. In the end, we underestimated Worldwide …"
"Dad, what should we do?"
Yao Huaqiang narrowed his eyes. His face was ferocious. "Then let's make the storm even more violent!"
…
Early in the morning, Chen He drove the Mercedes-Benz S600 to the Li Family's manor.
Li Peijiu did not sleep well last night. Her eyes were bleary and her long eyelashes showed that she was sleepy. The bloody massacre last night had a huge impact on her. Although she was a domineering CEO, she still found it hard to adapt and could not sleep for the whole night …
Chen He opened the car door for her. The goddess CEO got into the car and handed a bag of milk and bread to Chen He. "This is the breakfast I prepared for you."
Chen He smiled and took the breakfast from the goddess. He drove the Mercedes-Benz slowly to the company.
Along the way, Chen He drove very slowly. The Mercedes-Benz S600 was a top-notch luxury car. It was like the cockpit of an airplane. The goddess CEO Li Peijiu's beautiful eyes started to feel sleepy … She did not sleep well last night. At this moment, she needed a good rest. Thus, she gently closed her eyes …
The car slowly stopped at Worldwide. Chen He turned his head to look at the goddess who was resting quietly on the back seat. He could not help but feel love for her. He took off his suit jacket and gently draped it over the goddess's body. Then, he closed the car door. He did not wake her up. He just let her rest quietly. She needed to rest too much because she was really too tired …
After an unknown amount of time, Li Peijiu gently blinked her eyes. She suddenly realized that she had slept in the car for a long time … Her body was covered by a black man's suit. There was a strong smell of tobacco on it … Li Peijiu subconsciously raised her wrist. On her wrist was the black digital watch Chen He gave her. It showed that it was already 11 o 'clock in the afternoon.
Her beautiful eyes scanned the surroundings. Chen He was currently leaning against the car and smoking a cigarette.
