223: To be my suitor, you need to have good physical fitness
You Chengyu got out of his sports car, his eyes bruised and his cheeks swollen, clearly having been beaten, but that didn't stop him from dressing up.
He wore a flashy floral suit, his hair slicked back.
Previously, his looks might have salvaged his fashion sense, but now, paired with his ghastly face, it was simply an eyesore.
Yet, You Chengyu pouted, feigning grievance in an exaggerated manner.
Jiang Fei averted her gaze, feeling a physical discomfort.
It was too disgusting.
She rolled down the car window and warned, "If you don't want your sports car to be hit, drive it away immediately."
"Wait until I finish speaking!" You Chengyu gripped the car window with both hands:
"Your friend, Lu Yu, dragged me into an alley and beat me up yesterday. Look at my face, it's practically disfigured!"
"The doctor said my face won't recover for half a month. You must help me get justice! Otherwise, you'll have to take care of me on behalf of your friend until I'm fully recovered!"
Last night, his lackeys found out that Mo Yanan had given Jiang Fei a three-story shopping mall and was going into business with her.
So he gave up on recovering from his injuries and specifically waited all day near the small shopping mall for Jiang Fei to arrive.
He wanted to play the victim and complain, using Jiang Fei's guilt to create opportunities for them to spend time together.
He didn't believe that if they met every day, Jiang Fei wouldn't fall for him!
What a brilliant plan!
Jiang Fei stared at You Chengyu, who had suddenly started smiling: "Why did Lu Yu hit you?"
Her teammate wasn't someone who would act without reason.
"Because I wanted to give you flowers. He definitely harbored ill intentions towards you and saw me as a love rival."
"I'm handsome and rich, and he knew he couldn't compare to me, so he acted out of jealousy and inferiority to secretly harm me! Such people have the darkest hearts!"
You Chengyu vehemently slandered Lu Yu, his words implying his intention to pursue Jiang Fei.
Su Liuyuan couldn't stand it anymore: "You're full of it! Lu Yu is not a despicable and sinister villain!"
"Who's talking?" You Chengyu stood up straight, bewildered, to look around.
Upon seeing Su Liuyuan in the back of the pickup truck, he scoffed.
"A cripple who can't even walk, what right do you have to yell at me?"
"Can't you see this huge cast? If your eyes are blind, go find a doctor, don't act like a vicious dog blocking the road." Su Liuyuan retorted to You Chengyu, but it didn't ease his anger.
When his leg healed, he absolutely had to beat someone up!
Su Liuyuan couldn't act, but Jiang Fei could.
She opened the door and got out of the car.
"You just said you wanted to send me flowers to pursue me?"
"That's right!"
Jiang Fei rolled up her sleeves and raised her voice: "As my suitor, your physical fitness must be good."
"I need to test you."
Before You Chengyu could react, Jiang Fei covered his mouth, dragged him to a corner, and started beating him.
Passersby who witnessed the scene stopped: "Why is she hitting someone? Quickly go find the Security Team to resolve this!"
A passerby who heard the conversation stopped the other person:
"Oh, you don't understand, she's testing the young man's skills to see if he can protect her in the future."
"But that girl seems to be unilaterally assaulting him..."
"It just means the young man isn't physically capable. One is willing to hit, the other is willing to be hit, so let's not meddle."
Thus, the passersby gradually left.
Jiang Zhengkang and the others got out of the car, and whenever someone passed by, they would explain using this excuse.
Coupled with their excellent acting skills, they successfully fooled one group after another.
When she had beaten him enough, Jiang Fei let go.
You Chengyu instantly slipped and fell to the ground.
Having been beaten two days in a row, You Chengyu was in a lot of pain and felt extremely wronged, cursing under his breath.
"Damn it... you and Lu Yu should both die..."
"Your friend will never get into the Security Team in this lifetime!"
He tampered with her teammate's job?
Jiang Fei put her hands behind her back, took out a fully charged voice recorder to collect evidence, and pretended not to have heard clearly: "What did you say?"
You Chengyu, fueled by anger, gritted his teeth and repeated his words.
"I'm telling you, Jiang Fei, if you don't get together with me and serve me like a slave, even if Lu Yu passes the Security Team interview, he won't be able to get the job!"
"This time I could manipulate things behind the scenes to make Lu Yu get kicked out of the Security Team, and I can do it again next time!"
"The Security Team is run by us, the upper-class people!"
Why pursue her? Threatening her was much faster!
You Chengyu naively thought that Jiang Fei would compromise for her friend.
The next moment, a flying brick hit his forehead, and he instantly passed out.
Turning off the voice recorder, Jiang Fei called Lu Yu using a special walkie-talkie.
She quickly received a reply.
"I'm busy right now, I'll call you back later."
Lu Yu's breathing was a bit rapid, and he cut off the communication after speaking.
Jiang Fei put away the walkie-talkie.
She would ask him about his work later, after her teammate finished his business.
After kicking You Chengyu one more time, Jiang Fei had Jiang Zhengkang and the others get in the car and took a detour to the small shopping mall.
Before getting out of the car, she took out the plan and pricing list for the goods that Su Liuyuan had written yesterday.
She had already reviewed it once, and there were no problems.
Using the key to open the anti-theft rolling shutter door, Jiang Fei led everyone inside for a tour.
"You all should first arrange the goods according to Su Liuyuan's plan, and then uniformly attach the price tags."
"Uncle, you and Aunt Cao will arrange the goods on the first floor."
"Yao Jin, Han Yang, you two are responsible for the second floor."
"Niu Er, you come with me to the third floor."
"Su Liuyuan, you just stay here with Xiao Shi." Jiang Fei patted Jiang Xiaoshi's head. Just as she was about to go to the warehouse to move goods, several commercial vans stopped at the entrance.
More than thirty men in black suits got out.
They were Mo Yanan's bodyguards.
"Miss Jiang, Young Master and Uncle Liu have gone to get the shopping mall's plaque. He sent us here to see if there's anything we can help with."
"Perfect, we're about to arrange the goods."
Jiang Fei explained the specific tasks, and everyone started working.
The plan and price list were posted on the warehouse door for them to check.
With the bodyguards helping to move goods, Jiang Fei had some free time and secretly decorated the small shopping mall.
She placed a vase on the windowsill, crafts on the cashier counter, and laid carpets at the stairwell, among other things.
The staff lounge on the first floor of the small shopping mall was over a hundred square meters.
The space was large enough, so Jiang Fei converted the window-side area into a kitchen, placing cooking utensils, tableware, and a generator there.
From now on, everyone could cook at the small shopping mall.
In case of an accident, if they couldn't return to Fenglin Villa District, they would still have hot meals to eat if trapped here.
Jiang Fei left the lounge, and Lu Yu arrived in his car.
He was wearing a camouflage combat uniform, which made his posture appear even more upright.
It wasn't the combat uniform from the Safety Shelter.
"Your clothes..."
"The Rescue Center gave them to me. I got hired by the Rescue Team and officially start work tomorrow."
After sharing the good news with Jiang Fei, Lu Yu continued: "I went to the Security Headquarters this morning to start my job, but I received news that my employment was canceled."
"A staff member told me that it was an order from Young Master You Chengyu of the You Family."
"That's when I found out the Security Headquarters was established by the rich people of Kyoto Base, and You Chengyu has a lot of power there, so I went to the Rescue Team next door."
"The Rescue Team belongs to the military, so You Chengyu can't interfere."
"When you contacted me on the walkie-talkie, I was in an interview, so it wasn't convenient to chat with you."
Jiang Fei gave Lu Yu a thumbs up: "Impressive."
This was the strength of her teammate! He could succeed anywhere!
"What was it you called me about earlier?"
"You Chengyu came to me today and said you hit him."
Lu Yu stiffened.
