The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1832: Private Club

"Tianjing, you mean that pretentious mysterious man." Zhang Ting said disdainfully. This description made Ye Shikai a bit amused and exasperated, as he didn’t expect Tianjing to leave such an impression on Zhang Ting.

"You little girl, you’re young, but your mouth is quite sharp." Ye Shikai rolled his eyes. Although Tianjing sometimes acts "pretentious," he takes cases seriously and is quite capable. The Divine Weapon Team is also one of the trump cards of the National Security Bureau. He hasn’t seen Tianjing for a while and doesn’t know how his abilities have developed.

"I’m just telling the truth. His superior and dismissive attitude is really off-putting." Zhang Ting complained. Perhaps during the last Mothman case, Tianjing left a less-than-good impression on her. Or maybe she felt the National Security Bureau stole the police’s "thunder." It was the National Security Bureau that took the lead in the final assault on the chemical base in the Mothman case. But this was understandable. The Mothman case involved many aspects, and much of it is still confidential, stored in the National Security Bureau’s archives. Compared to the police office, the National Security Bureau is indeed more suited for this task. However, Zhang Ting is ambitious, so it’s natural she’d be displeased.

"Anyone who steals your thunder, you’d probably say the same thing about."

"Enough, let’s quit the pointless talking and continue investigating the case. Since these materials are from the National Security Bureau, they should be very useful."

"Do you still remember the capsule I mentioned last time?" Ye Shikai said calmly.

"Of course, the kind that can be ’remote-controlled’, right?"

"There are materials about this special capsule in here. The National Security Bureau even has finished products, though I can’t take them out. Even Tianjing can’t get them." Ye Shikai explained.

"There really is such a peculiar thing," Zhang Ting said, shocked. "So, what you said really exists."

"When I talked about it at the police station last time, you didn’t believe me at all, did you?"

"I thought you were boasting. After all, it’s not that easy to make something like that, right?"

"Tianjing told me that this kind of capsule is not common in Huaxia, so it’s normal you haven’t seen it. But precisely because it’s rare, it can help with the case." Ye Shikai said casually.

"Hey, are you dumb? If it’s rare, how’s it supposed to help with the case?" Zhang Ting retorted.

"No wonder your chief asked you to follow me. Solving a case relies not on your limbs but on this," Ye Shikai pointed to his head. Though Zhang Ting was angry and wanted to hit him, she had no choice. If she wanted to solve the case, she really couldn’t do it without Ye Shikai’s help.

"Let’s go, we’re heading back to Yanjing tomorrow."

"Why go back? Can’t we solve the case and have to slink back in failure?"

"Calling you dumb doesn’t do justice. Of course, we’re going back to solve the case. Once we get to Yanjing, you should change into plain clothes and follow me to crack this case."

The next day.

"Why are we dressed like this, and why did you make me wear such heavy makeup?" Zhang Ting, holding a mirror, was increasingly dissatisfied. She was a respectable lady officer; even in plain clothes for a mission, she never wore heavy makeup.

"This is a private club. You can’t show up in sportswear, can you?" Ye Shikai glanced at Zhang Ting’s outfit—a long dress, red high heels. She had never dressed like this before; it was probably more exhausting than physical training...

Ye Shikai was also wearing a suit, neatly put together, affectionately holding Zhang Ting’s arm.

"Hey, what are you doing? Taking advantage of me?" Zhang Ting instinctively resisted. Being held so affectionately by a man, a gesture she had never experienced before, naturally made her reject it.

"Who’s trying to take advantage of you? I’m just having you act with me. Otherwise, the case won’t be cracked."

"Really?" Zhang Ting half-believed, half-doubted. However, to solve the case, she didn’t mind at all. She was curious to see how Ye Shikai would crack the case.

"Alright, just watch my performance later." Ye Shikai said casually as they sat in the car. This private club was named the "Four Seasons Private Club." Many wealthy and influential people in Yanjing were members. The last time Ye Shikai was here, he was with Su Qingyu.

"Why are we still here? Aren’t we going in?" Zhang Ting asked curiously.

"Wait."

"Wait for what?"

"Wait for someone."

Soon, a "convoy" of all luxury cars arrived from a distance, causing Zhang Ting’s curiosity about the identity of the newcomer with such an impressive scene.

"Who is it, coming in such a big show?"

"Unexpectedly, she’s still like this. Alright, let’s go meet her."

Ten minutes later.

"Where have you been recently, off playing somewhere?"

Ye Shikai faced the stunning woman in front of him, smiling wryly. Luo Shiqi was still joking but looked visibly worn out. According to Su Qingyu, during Ye Shikai’s disappearance, Luo Shiqi had been searching for him relentlessly, ignoring even her business group affairs. It wasn’t until Ye Shikai’s return that she finally relaxed.

Zhang Ting, however, felt extreme aversion toward Luo Shiqi. Their identities were inherently opposed and as incompatible as water and fire. Originally, she wanted to scold her but resisted it for the sake of the case and because Ye Shikai was present.

"I feel ashamed. We haven’t seen each other in so long, and yet I have something to ask of you as soon as we meet." Ye Shikai said with a wry smile.

"It’s okay. Getting into this private club is just a matter of a word from me."

"I’m here to solve a case, but I’ll need your help with some actions. I don’t want to make too much of a fuss." Ye Shikai said calmly.

"I understand. Whatever happens here at this private club tonight, no one else will know about it. Even if you were to... kill someone here."

"Don’t worry, it’s not that brutal. It’s just for the case, gathering some clues."

"So, you’re planning to catch someone, aren’t you?" Luo Shiqi glanced at Zhang Ting beside her, smiling slyly.

"More or less. If they cooperate, I won’t need to do anything."

"Alright." Luo Shiqi waved her hand, and her people immediately understood, posting themselves at the club’s exits.

"Thank you." Ye Shikai turned and left, taking a few of Luo Shiqi’s trusted people into the club. Zhang Ting wanted to follow but was blocked by Luo Shiqi.

"What do you mean by this?" Zhang Ting, already extremely averse to Luo Shiqi, was even more so now.

"Officer Zhang, I suggest you stay here." Luo Shiqi said calmly.

"Why should I listen to you? Besides, I’m the one in charge of investigating this case." Zhang Ting, hearing this, became even more displeased. The more Luo Shiqi said that, the more irritated she felt.

"Sometimes, impulsive actions can make things worse. I assume you also want to solve the case as soon as possible."
