"Yiru? Why are you calling me today?"

The call connected, and Haoming swallowed hard before asking.

"Haoming? I'm really sorry, I've been so busy since that day, and with the start of the semester, I've had a lot more things to deal with, so I couldn't make it to the appointment," Liu Yiru's voice came through the receiver, and Haoming felt his bones almost turn to jelly at the sound.

"No, no! I know you're busy, it's understandable!" Haoming sounded magnanimous, but his tone carried a hint of "Dare to fool your Lord Haoming and you're asking for death," which made Zhang Ruochen shake his head.

Liu Yiru, of course, picked up on this but showed no reaction. Instead, she asked with an enthusiastic tone, "How have you been recently? What are you up to?"

"Oh, oh, oh... I'm with Ruochen right now. Is there something you need? How about we find a place to have dinner tonight and talk more?"

Haoming was quite good-looking, but his lecherous expression made Zhang Ruochen feel a bit excessive.

Haoming could be considered a typical rich kid, holding the position of vice president at Datong Communications. He almost never stayed in the office, always eating, drinking, and playing around, or chasing women. Zhang Ruochen only associated with him because of business dealings with Datong; otherwise, he wouldn't bother with him.

"Hehe, Ruochen is there too? Hmm... Can Haoming talk to me alone?" Liu Yiru, after understanding the situation, thought that since Zhang Ruochen was Wang Siyu's official boyfriend and Chen Jie was Wang Siyu's bodyguard, it would be best to keep this matter from Zhang Ruochen, even though Chen Jie was just a bodyguard, he was still Wang Siyu's person.

"Oh? Uh... Okay, okay, okay, wait a moment."

Haoming glanced at Zhang Ruochen, who nodded and smiled as if understanding, indicating that Haoming should go ahead and talk alone.

Haoming thought for a moment but gestured for Zhang Ruochen not to leave. He walked to Zhang Ruochen, smiled, and made a 'don't speak' gesture, then directly turned on the speaker on his phone.

"Alright, Yiru, go ahead, I'm listening."

Haoming smiled at Zhang Ruochen, who sighed but didn't refuse.

"Do you remember the person who competed with us for that bottle of CHAMBERTIN that day?" Liu Yiru said.

"That guy?" Haoming immediately recalled, "I know, what's up?"

"I found this guy and know who he is."

"Oh? Who is it! Tell me quickly! I've been wanting to find this bastard!" Haoming immediately perked up at this.

"Don't tell Ruochen. This person is called Chen Jie, I think he might be Wang Siyu's new bodyguard."

"Wang Siyu's bodyguard? What kind of bodyguard can drink CHAMBERTIN, and the 20-year-old version at that? Are you kidding me? How much does this bodyguard get paid?"

At this, Haoming's face turned pale. He looked at Zhang Ruochen and mouthed, "Does your Siyu have such a bodyguard?"

Zhang Ruochen shook his head in confusion; he had never heard that Wang Siyu had a bodyguard named Chen Jie.

Wait! Chen Jie?

Zhang Ruochen immediately remembered: that day in the presidential suite, didn't he meet a young man named Chen Jie? At the time, due to his habits, he thought Chen Jie was someone with connections and personally went to meet him.

How did this person become Wang Siyu's bodyguard?
