Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 1172 - 1150: Always Sending People to Protect Her Safety
Qiao Yongyong’s face tensed up; she thought it was a gang trying to snatch her bag, but it turned out this person was not trying to rob her but to deal with her!
Just then, four men in black suits appeared like bodyguards descending from the heavens, rushing from all directions to subdue the motorcyclist and lift his helmet.
It was a man in his early forties, yelling in pain from the fall!
Compared to the man who had tried to attack her, she was more shocked by the four bodyguards who had appeared out of nowhere: "Who... who are you?"
One of the men stood up, "Miss Qiao, are you hurt?"
"No... who are you?"
"We are top-level bodyguards from the Boss’s company. Ever since you were almost splashed with acid at the school gate, the Boss has had us secretly watching over your safety."
Qiao Yongyong was stunned, "So for the past few months, you’ve been quietly following me?"
"Yes."
Does this mean that Brother Yixiao has been silently sending people to protect her?
She was about to ask more questions when she saw the bodyguards had already lifted the man up: "Miss Qiao, we will now take this person to the police station."
Qiao Yongyong frowned, "Wait a minute, take him to the alley next to us."
The four men obediently dragged the middle-aged man into the alley, giving him a beating, searching him thoroughly to make sure he had no weapons. Then, based on Qiao Yongyong’s request, they waited at the alley entrance.
Qiao Yongyong looked at the man weeping in pain on the ground: "If you don’t want another beating, tell the truth, who sent you?"
The beating had frightened Liao Guodong, and looking at the girl protected by the four imposing bodyguards, he confessed with a pained expression: "Mrs. Ning, Wu, Wu Huiyun..."
She had already guessed it was likely, given how Wu Huiyun and Ning Duoduo hated her to death recently. Who else could it be but those two?
Hmm, but it’s strange. This middle-aged man doesn’t seem like a thug or a professional gangster.
Her sharp eyes flashed as she grabbed Liao Guodong by the collar: "Who are you, and what is your relationship with Wu Huiyun?"
Liao Guodong remained silent for a moment, his eyes flickering with something, "No, no relation!"
The brief silence allowed Qiao Yongyong to see through him; having been in the Longding Society for so many years, she was very sensitive to such people.
"Tough guy, huh? Let’s see if your mouth is tougher than their fists." She shot a sidelong glance at the bodyguards at the alley entrance.
Liao Guodong immediately wailed and begged for mercy, finally admitting: "I’m, I’m Liao Guodong. I dated Mrs. Ning when we were young... but we broke up later, and she went with Ning Xiaochuan. Mind you, Miss, this time it’s my fault. I don’t have a good relationship with Mrs. Ning. I just got confused after hearing her weeping and agreed to it. I was wrong. I won’t bother you again. Please let me go this once!"
So, this middle-aged man in front of her was Wu Huiyun’s old flame!
Wait a minute, given that back in the day Wu Huiyun left her boyfriend to climb up to Ning Xiaochuan, Liao Guodong should hate Wu Huiyun. It’s impossible he helped her just because of sentiment; could it be purely for money?
Qiao Yongyong furrowed her elegant brows: "What did she tell you?"
Liao Guodong’s face took on an even more peculiar look, but he had no choice but to speak honestly: "She, she said you ruined her daughter’s reputation, that’s why she wanted me to teach you a lesson for her daughter."
Qiao Yongyong scoffed, "She threw you away like trash back then to climb up to a rich and handsome guy, and now you still run around doing her dirty work. Do you think she’d be moved or shed a tear for you if you ended up in prison? She’s just using you as a tool! Ha, how much did she pay you? Is it enough compensation for going to jail?"
Liao Guodong flushed with anger at the mention of Wu Huiyun dumping him back in the day. He grunted, "I’m not doing this entirely for the money; if it wasn’t for..." At this moment, he realized he’d said too much and quickly shut his mouth, refusing to say more.
But Qiao Yongyong sensed something, her eyes shimmered with a hint of coldness, "When did you break up with Wu Huiyun?" 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢
Liao Guodong didn’t dare not to answer and stammered out a year.
Qiao Yongyong calculated and understood.
So, Wu Huiyun was pursuing Ning Xiaochuan while still with Liao Guodong, essentially two-timing.
It’s likely that when Wu Huiyun was dating Liao Guodong, she encountered Ning Xiaochuan, a man of high status, and secretly started seeing him.
At the time, Ning Xiaochuan hadn’t recovered from the pain of losing his wife and was busy looking for his son, so he never accepted Wu Huiyun.
It wasn’t until Wu Huiyun had a drunken tryst with Ning Xiaochuan and became pregnant that Ning Xiaochuan, willing to take responsibility, gave her a status, allowing her to gleefully break up with Liao Guodong.
Drunken tryst? Pregnant?
Qiao Yongyong’s eyes flashed, and she grabbed a handful of Liao Guodong’s hair!
"Ouch—what are you doing—" Liao Guodong screamed in pain.
Qiao Yongyong collected Liao Guodong’s hair, dusted her hands, and called back in the bodyguards.
Liao Guodong, enduring the pain, quickly said: "You’ve got your answers. Can I go now?"
"Find a warehouse and lock this man up," Qiao Yongyong said softly.
Liao Guodong was startled.
The bodyguards exchanged confused glances: "Miss Qiao, aren’t we taking him to the police station? Locking him up? For what?"
Qiao Yongyong said softly, "Listen to me, gentlemen."
The bodyguards blushed. This Miss Qiao, even the Boss, a man notoriously stern, treats her differently; she’s like a little witch.
Two of them chopped Liao Guodong’s neck to knock him out, then lifted him and took him to a car outside the alley.
The remaining two were about to leave when Qiao Yongyong called out, "Wait, don’t report today’s incident to Brother Yixiao."
"Huh? But we were sent by the Boss to keep you safe. Such a big incident today, we have to tell the Boss."
"I wasn’t hurt, it’s nothing major. Besides, this might relate to some matters of the Ning Family, I want to investigate it first, so it’s best not to say anything for now."
The two exchanged a look, finally nodding: "Yes, Miss Qiao."
After the bodyguards left with Liao Guodong, Qiao Yongyong walked out of the alley, followed the road back to the magazine’s entrance, and saw the familiar black SUV parked for a while.
A familiar figure leaned against the car body, anxiously looking at his phone.
She quickly checked her phone, seeing a dozen missed calls, and hurried over: "Hubby!"
"Where did you go?" His anxious eyes immediately softened, yet his tone held a hint of sternness.
"I—" She was about to speak when she felt a stinging pain in her palm.
