Chapter 227 Bodyguard

"Miss Jiang I don"t have any intentions aside from asking for forgiveness. Here, I even brought some home-cooked dishes that I personally cooked to show my sincerity," Fan Linwen answered with a straight face.

Jiang Yue looked at Fan Linwen before laughing and shaking her head. "You are making me laugh Miss Fan, but since you really did make an effort to make this, leave it here and I will make sure to let my man know of your apology."

Fan Linwen was about to retort when she saw Fu Jin coming towards their direction. She immediately bit her lower lip, her expression pitiful. "Miss Jiang, I am just here to apologize, why are you trying to stop me from expressing my utmost apology to Mr. Fu? I just don"t want him to misunderstand me."

"Aiyah... Jin, why don"t you take care of these foxes for me?" Jiang Yue said without even turning head at Fu Jin. She could already feel Fu Jin"s presence behind her.

"Mr. Fu I am glad that you are already here. I came here to personally apologize about what happened last night," Ma Xuehui interjected. "I had originally brought some food for you, but it is already cold now, so please allow me to invite you for lunch. We can have Miss Jiang come too."

"How embarra.s.sing!" Fan Linwen sneered. This Ma Xuehui just shamelessly asked to have lunch with Fu Jin. If that was not shameless, then what is?

However, Fu Jin did not even look at them. He signaled for the security personnel, and the two women were immediately dragged outside of the building. Afterwards, he instructed everyone not to let these two girls inside again.

Fu Jin also asked Chu Yang to spread this news to the public using the photos and videos from his employees. This happened so quick that both Ma Xuehui and Fan Linwen were not able to react in time. When they woke up from their daze, they were already outside of the building in the middle of another crowd.

"Hey, stop taking photos! Stop!" Fan Linwen said as she covered her head and ran towards her car. She immediately went inside her car and locked it before fetching her phone from her pouch.

"Mian Mian, I"m coming to see you. That Ma Xuehui was too much this time..."

"Got it. Bye." Then she started her car and drove to see her best friend.

...

"Jin, it seems that you will attract many foxes in the next few days," Jiang Yue said, her eyes full of laughter. "Maybe I should just keep you at home, not letting anyone see you."

"Or you can be my secretary and be my lookout. How about a bodyguard? Eh? That would suit you better," Fu Jin replied.

"You want a beauty like me to be your bodyguard?" she giggled.

"Why not?"

"Can you even afford it?" She raised an eyebrow at him. However, her gaze caught sight of a small envelope. "Eh? What"s this?"

"Young Miss, that"s an invitation for the yearly jewelry gala in this country," Chu Yang respectfully answered Jiang Yue. "This year Mr. Fu is supposed to be the special guest for the auction that they are having. However, he has already declined this invite."

"Jin, why did you decline? This is a great opportunity for you to a.s.sociate yourself with the elite people in this country," Jiang Yue asked.

"The invite is only for one," Fu Jin answered. "I don"t want to go without you by my side."

Fu Jin"s short answer instantly made Jiang Yue smile. Her man was so sweet. "When you say only one, you mean you are not allowed to bring a companion?"

"Hmmm..." Fu Jin nodded.

"Why do you think that is? Isn"t it weird?"

"That"s why I chose not to attend."

Jiang Yue fell into silence as she started to a.n.a.lyze everything. "You can still bring me without an invitation," she declared, attracting Fu Jin"s gaze.

"Let me be your bodyguard," Jiang Yue stated, her eyes sparkling as she raised an eyebrow at Fu Jin. "I mean... the mighty Heir of the Fu Conglomerate should never go anywhere without one. Right?"

"How smart!" Fu Jin said before pulling her onto his lap. "My wife seems to be smarter than me."

"Of course!" Jiang Yue purred as she snuggled closer to Fu Jin. Her eyes were full of gentleness. Jiang Yue was almost a hundred percent certain that someone had wanted Fu Jin to attend this gala alone.

Jiang Yue was not yet aware of the goal, but if she was right, then this gala would introduce her to some of her old enemies.

Speaking of enemies, her eyes seemed to turn a little shade darker than usual. Fu Xiaolan was still on the run. Now Jiang Mian was in the same city as her. She wondered if Li Qiang was also somewhere within this city.

Fu Jin"s parents" accident had caught them off guard, not allowing them to execute some of their plans. However, since Jiang Yue had already decided to establish the w.a.n.g Empire, she would need to concentrate on her enemies soon.

After the merging, she would surely focus on those people again. Of course, that included the secret that Fu Jin was keeping from her.
