XUE CARS

[ CEO'S OFFICE ]

"Xue Ying"

Mr. Zhao was accompanied into the office with Mr. Xue Ying's assistant. As Mr. Xue Ying's eyes met his, he stood up to greet and welcome him then they headed to the small lounge inside Mr. Xue Ying's

Office.

" So Mr. Zhao what brings you here?" Xue Ying asked as he seated across Mr. Zhao," I heard a business nearby, so I decided to stop by and greet you...... I hope I'm not intruding your privacy Mr. Xue Ying" he replied with a calm tone.

"Of course not" he replied with a smirk, "Mr. Zhao, do you remember my request for a new body guard?"

Mr Zhao was the sole owner of the Silver Stone Institute also known for short as SSI, this institution is known for its upbringing of amazing security personnel and guards. They are loyal to the government, and they have many connections due to past dealings. Mr. Zhao is a one of a kind owner, he stopped body guarding due to his heart issues, but he decided to run an organization of his own, and his institute became one of the best, and so is Mr. Zhao, he is a very peculiar person, and he knows what he wants.

"I made a list of our most capable agents, well-trained and responsible" he said with confidence and pride. Mr. Xue looked at the profile of the selected agents.....he drops the tablet and says" I have heard and seen all these before..... Mr. Zhao I want something new.... Someone new.... Someone capable.....Someone who can handle all these attacks and threats I keep getting"

"Someone.....new? Mr. Xue Ying, you do realize that those are all of my most elite bodyguards" Mr. Zhao said with a sign of disdain and discomfort, "Listen carefully Mr. Zhao, my company has made a couple of.... Sorry let me rephrase myself.... Alot of waves in the car industry and Petroleum industry, my partner and I recently got robbed, and our refineries got attacked several times."

"........."

Mr. Xue Ying picked up the tablet and continues " Li Hao Xuan and I have decided to make maximum effort to fix this, if he has done his part then its my turn.....if I can only provide security then so be it, I won't lose money because of someone's jealousy."

" I won't deny it.... Due to your help and support I have been able to make a name for my self, your company has a great reputation and so do you..... You helped me in my time of crisis, and it's time I return the favor" he said as he looked at Mr. Xue Ying a bright smile

" I knew you couldn't resist, after introducing you to many government officials.... Of course, you owe me.

Your fame and glory gave me a good name and brought me more opportunities" Mr. Xue Ying thought to himself as he smirked with joy and satisfaction. He nodded to Mr. Zhao's words before getting up, he walks towards his table and brought out am envelope. He gave passed the envelope to Mr. Zhao and said" I looked into one body guard in particular.... "

"Xiu Ying!" he exclaimed, Mr. Zhao was in so much shock. Mr. Xue flinched and stared at him and said" Yes, it's her.... What's with the reaction, Mr. Zhao?"

" It's nothing Mr. Xue Ying-"

Mr Xue Ying cut in saying" Very well.... I took the liberty of investigating her, and she is quite interesting.... I hope she lives up to my expectations, I just hope she doesn't die like the rest "

" Mr Xue Ying, the problem is that this particular agent is no longer under me.... She began her retirement four weeks ago and her license is valid, it's just we haven't updated our database yet, so would you mind choosing another agent?". " Why? Why would I? She is an S-ranked agent and is well-known in China.... so why would she retire at such a young age..... I refuse to accept this, I want her and no one else..... I truly want to see if women can do things better than men" he said sitting on his desk while staring at Mr. Zhao, who was shocked and speechless.

Hyo-ru made lunch and cleaned up after cooking, while Xiu Ying sat down eating and talking to him. They had a very suspicious relationship that most of their coworkers suspected that she dumped Soobin for Hyo-ru which wasn't true.

"Hey, listen Captain told me something today and I did some research but I need your help" Hyo-ru said as he sat opposite her, after hearing this she moved to his side, " Lemme guess he wants to apologize for putting me on retirement" she said brimming with confidence. He looked at her with disgust, and said " Why do you think everything is about you? ". She stomped his feet out of annoyance and folded her arms. He grunted in pain and said" He told me to investigate the robbery of some guys company, he seems like a big shot..... I think he is one of our share holders and that's what worries the Captain"
