Dongsheng Security

“Haha, then thank you, Brother Xiao. I’ll treat you to a meal another day.”

“Oh, don’t flatter me. I didn’t handle this well and caused trouble for your friend.

Tomorrow evening, I happen to be hosting a gathering, and some good friends will also be there. Please grace us with your presence, and tomorrow I’ll toast you with two drinks to apologize.”

Xiao Han knew about Blade’s family background. For a second-generation like him, inviting Blade to a meal and apologizing in person would be a bit difficult for him, but apologizing to Chen Dong was fine.

“Alright, then let’s get in touch tomorrow.”

Xiao Han hung up the phone, and within five minutes, Blade’s call came through.

“Brother, have those five people left?”

“Yes, and they even apologized to me.” Blade’s voice was still calm, but his breathing was a little rapid.

“You went to find Chen Dong?”

“Yes, President Chen helped make a call.”

“Where are you now? I’ll go over to express my gratitude to him.” After a long silence, Blade spoke.

“Changjun International, right here on Chengzong Road…..”

Chen Dong opened his computer in the office and started looking at documents; Xu Wanying pulled Feng Zhiqiu to the adjacent office to chat. She seemed to see another version of herself in this younger sister: someone who had experienced great changes but remained firm in her resolve.

An hour later, Feng Zhiqiu came downstairs with Blade and entered Chen Dong’s office.

“President Chen, I apologize for my previous recklessness, and I hope you can forgive me.” Blade bowed to Chen Dong, apologizing with a sincere expression.

“There’s no need for apologies. You’ve risked your life repeatedly to protect the Nation and its people; it’s only right that I do something for you.”

Chen Dong rose from his chair and waved his hand.

“The house demolition issue has been resolved. The demolition compensation you’ll receive should be around 1 million yuan. You can use it to buy a house and support Zhiqiu through university. Your future life will get better.”

Feng Zhiqiu also thanked Chen Dong with a face full of gratitude, but from beginning to end, Chen Dong never again mentioned having Blade work for him.

Having seen more of the world, Chen Dong’s grasp of human nature was even more precise. Given Xu Wanying’s relationship with Feng Zhiqiu, it was highly probable that Feng Zhiqiu would come to help Xu Wanying with her internship next semester, and Blade would eventually work for him.

“President Chen, I want to come and work with you. I wonder if you could give me a chance?”

Blade was genuinely sincere. He felt that Chen Dong had shown him great kindness, and he needed to repay this favor no matter what.

“Have you thought it through? If you come to work for me, you’ll need to commit for at least five years.”

“No problem, I don’t have any better place to go anyway.”

“Welcome to Dongsheng Security. From today on, you are Dongsheng Security’s general manager, trainer, and my bodyguard. I’ll give you a monthly salary of 50,000 yuan, and additionally, if you go on missions with me, there will be separate bonuses. How does that sound?”

Fifty thousand a month? Blade and his sister’s breathing both became rapid; they almost wondered if they had misheard.

Especially Feng Zhiqiu, her small face flushed crimson, as if she had seen something embarrassing.

“Thank you, President Chen, for your appreciation. I will give it my all.”

Blade, after all, was a man who had experienced life-and-death situations and quickly regained his composure.

“Alright, to celebrate the official establishment of Dongsheng Security, let’s have a small gathering at noon.”

They went directly downstairs to the five-star hotel private room at Changjun International. Zheng Kai, after receiving the call, personally organized and arranged for staff to use the best and freshest ingredients and the best chefs.

It was Feng Zhiqiu’s first time entering such a luxurious place, and her eyes were full of curiosity, looking around like a curious baby.

It was still the best private room on the 22nd floor, with magnificent decor, luxurious lighting, and an atmosphere that exuded wealth everywhere.

After the meal, Feng Zhiqiu kept patting her little belly and smacking her small lips, a look of satisfaction on her face.

Their bond had deepened considerably, and Feng Zhiqiu began calling Chen Dong “Brother Dong.”

“Little Blade, Dongsheng Security is currently just a framework. Floors 41 to 45 of this building are designated for the security company, but only core personnel will be stationed there.

My requirements are simple: train all core personnel by the end of this year, whether they are bodyguards or intelligence officers.

Starting next year, we will expand our business, lease or purchase venues in various locations, train ordinary security personnel, and provide security services to various organizations.”

“Boss, I’d like to find some former comrades to come and help. Do you think that’s possible?”

“Of course, even those who have been injured are fine; they can help guide training.”

“Thank you, Boss.” Blade’s eyes flickered, looking as if he wanted to speak but hesitated.

“Just say whatever you want directly; there’s no need to beat around the bush with me.”

“Boss, there’s something, I…” Blade stammered, seemingly very embarrassed.

“Are you a man or not? This isn’t the style of a soldier king!”

“Boss, then I’ll be straightforward. My former recruit squad leader, General Xu, is from Jin Province. He was born to be a soldier, and his organizational and command abilities are extremely strong. I remember there was a period when our company commander took leave because of something happening at home, and he even acted as company commander for a month. Everyone particularly admired him.”

“Then quickly invite him over! This is a rare talent!”

“His family is facing difficulties.” Blade was silent for a few seconds before telling Chen Dong,

“His four-year-old daughter has leukemia and needs a bone marrow transplant. His family has already spent all their money. Our former company organized two fundraisers, but there’s still a large shortfall…”

Blade, this iron-willed man, actually choked up, as if another loved one was about to leave him. This unyielding, passionate man once again felt the helplessness that comes from a lack of money.

“I’ll give you three days off. Bring Squad Leader Xu and his family over and arrange for them to stay in Jinghai’s best hospital.

Give me your bank card number. I’ll transfer three million to you first. This money will be considered Squad Leader Xu’s settling-in fee, and if it’s not enough later, just tell me.”

“Boss—” Blade’s eyes were red, tears constantly welling up, as he tried his best not to cry out loud.

“I thank you on behalf of my squad leader.”

Feng Zhiqiu, the emotional little girl, was already in tears. Having experienced the separation of loved ones by death, she could not bear to see such human tragedies.

Xu Wanying had a faint smile on her face, but her eyes were wet. She quietly watched Chen Dong, this man who exuded light, always so captivating.

She thought of her daughter, Chen Xiaobei. If she were seriously ill, how desperate would she be…

“You are the heroes of this Nation. The peaceful and beautiful life we enjoy is inseparable from your silent dedication behind the scenes. This is just doing a little bit of what I can.”

Chen Dong patted Blade’s shoulder.

“Any comrades you know who are willing to come and help, try to call them all over. I will do my best to arrange everything for everyone.

For those with ordinary abilities, the minimum salary will be 5,000. For those with good abilities and qualities who can serve as core personnel, it will be at least 10,000…”

Blade, clutching the bank card with 3 million yuan, bought an afternoon train ticket and rushed to Jin Province. He was going to bring the person who guided him in his military career, along with his wife and daughter, to Jinghai.

Feng Zhiqiu sat quietly at her desk, a book open before her, but she couldn’t read a single word. Her mind was filled with Chen Dong’s image.

What kind of man was this? Completely different from the second-generation rich people in her impression—approachable, kind-hearted, and every word and action full of magic…
