The Mad Guardian

After two assassination attempts last night, Qiu Qianyu no longer dared to go out alone.

At the very least, having Jiang Chuan around felt somewhat safer.

Even though she really disliked him!

Of course, this was just a temporary measure.

Qiu Qianyu had already decided to hire a female bodyguard today, and then tell that annoying guy to get as far away as possible!

"Alright!"

Jiang Chuan flicked his finger slightly, sending the cigarette butt into the trash can with unerring accuracy.

Then, he grabbed the car keys from the coffee table and got up to leave.

Qiu Qianyu's car was a red Ferrari.

Sitting in the car, the anxious Qiu Qianyu urgently instructed Jiang Chuan, "Drive faster, I need to get to the company as soon as possible!"

"Drive faster? Are you sure?" A playful smile curled at the corner of Jiang Chuan's mouth.

Then, his eyes narrowed as he slammed down on the accelerator.

The Ferrari's engine roared to life, as if a massive thrust was slamming into Qiu Qianyu's back. In the blink of an eye, the Ferrari shot forward over a hundred meters like an enraged cheetah!

Qiu Qianyu let out a scream, and Jiang Chuan's warning echoed once more.

"Hold on tight! I'm going to speed up!"

Speed up? Speed up even more? Isn't this speed already too fast?

Qiu Qianyu didn't have time to voice her protest before that overwhelming force hit her again.

The Ferrari's furious roar grew more intense, racing down the riverside road like a bolt of lightning.

"Ah! Slow down! Ah!"

Qiu Qianyu screamed in shock, her face drained of color. In her panic, she clung desperately to her seat, her eyes filled with terror.

How could Qiu Qianyu not be terrified? This was a busy urban area, and the speedometer on the Ferrari's dashboard had surged to 200 mph. At that speed, if something went wrong, it would be a massive disaster.

"Slow down, you're going to cause an accident."

Qiu Qianyu pounded on the seat and shouted at Jiang Chuan, but he seemed completely indifferent. Instead of slowing down, the car sped up even more.

"Slow down, you're..."

Qiu Qianyu was both embarrassed and furious. What was this bastard trying to do? Was he planning to kill her?

Just as Qiu Qianyu, angry, was about to try to stop Jiang Chuan again, he suddenly slammed on the brakes with a screech.

The Ferrari came to a steady stop, and Jiang Chuan turned his head, smiling brightly. "We've arrived at the company."

Qiu Qianyu turned to look out the window, and to her amazement, the car was parked at her company's entrance.

Qiu Qianyu ran a cosmetics company, not very large in Yanbei City, but somewhat well-known.

Qiu Qianyu cursed under her breath, and without bothering to blame Jiang Chuan, hurriedly rushed into the company.

Meanwhile, Jiang Chuan smiled smugly, parked the Ferrari in the company's underground parking, twirled the keys in one hand, and hummed a tune as he leisurely headed for the elevator.

By this time, Qiu Qianyu had already arrived at the top floor office of the company.

The office was already filled with several people.

In her seat, usually reserved for the company president, sat an old lady.

The old lady was in her sixties, her hair slightly graying, but there was a hint of authority in her brow.

Several people stood submissively around her.

When Qiu Qianyu saw the old lady, she was first slightly surprised, then her expression quickly turned solemn.

Taking a deep breath, she carefully asked, "Grandmother, what brings you here?"

This old lady was Qiu Qianyu's grandmother and the current head of the Qiu Clan, surnamed Chang, with the given name Lan.

She was a figure whose word was law in the Qiu Family.

But why had she suddenly come to Yanbei all the way from Hai Province?
