Chapter 18: 18： You Came At The Right Time!

Ling Chen froze, before slowly turning his head to stare at Zhong Wei, who was just entering the gym. He hurriedly rushed to explain, "Captain Zhong, I..."

"Save your excuses. The punishment will be docked directly from your pay."

Hearing this, the other members of the squad all revealed a strange expression on their faces and looked curiously at Zhong Wei. There wasn't such a rule in the past though?

Zhong Wei noticed the gaze of the people around him and knew what they were thinking, but he had no way of explaining himself. Just now, when he called the director for the details of their latest assignment, he had casually mentioned Ling Chen, but the President had given him a complicated order.

As their employer, although he felt there was something weird about the order, he dared not to disobey his boss's commands and could only carry them out dutifully.

Ling Chen's heart was screaming with grievances. No one had told him that he could not play with his phone while on the job. But then again, a thousand dollar fine wasn't too much.

"Ling Chen, your job has been arranged. Follow me."

Ling Chen could only shrug helplessly. Screw it. I'll just take the thousand dollars fine as a lesson. I'll take note in the future!

The two rode the elevator down to the basement. Zhong Wei pointed to a Rolls Royce as well as two Land Rover and said, "Clean up these three cars before lunchtime. In the afternoon, I have other assignments for you."

"Captain Zhong, there are specialised car washing services outside. I'm here to be a bodyguard, not a car washer."

"Where can you find a car washer that's paid thirteen thousand dollars? Ling Chen, don't forget my words. When working under me, there's only one thing you need to do and that's to follow my orders. Are you disobeying me right now?"

"I... am."

Zhong Wei's face instantly frosted over.

"No, Captain Zhong! You misunderstood me, what I meant to say was that I would listen to your order."

"There's still two hours before lunch. You best manage your time well. If I find out that you did not accomplish your task in the stipulated time, I'll dock another thousand dollars from your pay."

Watching as Zhong Wei walked away, Ling Chen could not help cussing out loudly.

This mother fucking bastard, how can you just dock thousands of dollars like that? There are so many people on the squad, why did you only ask me to wash the cars?

Suddenly, a thought popped into his head, and he glumly wondered, it can't be that witch Su Lin taking the opportunity to deal with me, right?

"Achoo!"

Su Lin, who was almost dozing off on the sofa, suddenly sneezed loudly. Rubbing her nose, she turned her head to look at Nanrong Wanqing, who was diligently working at the desk and stood up. "Wanqing, did you manage to deal with that bastard?"

"I already spoke with Zhong Wei. He should know what to do."

Wanqing curtly replied to her, without even lifting her head.

"What are you busy with?"

"In the next few days, the revitalisation project in the old city district is about to commence. There are still some procedures I need to settle."

"Then do you need to head down to the site?"

"This time, the government is the one helming the project. When the time comes, there will be a signing ceremony at the site itself. Although it's only to walk over the grounds, as a key sponsor, I must be there in person."

"Then remember not to overwork yourself. You must rest more often, if there's too much work, then share your workload with Nanrong Hao. At the very least, he's the eldest son of the Nanrong Family."

Nanrong Wanqing shook her head dispiritedly. When mentioning Nanrong Hao, her eyes would reveal disappointment. She wanted to nurture her brother to be her successor, but he was simply too playful and had never taken company affairs seriously at all. Asking him to come to the company would not only fail to lighten her workload but may even cause her more headaches instead.

At that time, the person in question was leisurely driving his car into Hongyu Multinational's underground parking lot.

After disembarking from the car, he saw that there was a man currently squeezing into a Land Rover and busily washing it. He could not help calling out, "Yo, the car washer over there, can you help me wash my car too?"

"Who are you calling a car washer?" Ling Chen unhappily grumbled as he stuck his head out of the car.

"Bro Chen?"

Nanrong Hao froze for a moment before an ecstatic smile spread across his face.

"Bro Chen, what are you doing here? Hmm? Isn't that our company's bodyguard uniform? Bro Chen, when were you hired as a bodyguard of our company?"

"Why are you asking so many questions?"

Ling Chen tossed a cloth over to Nanrong Hao.

"You came at just the right time. Help me wash this car."

"Ah?"

Nanrong Hao was instantly dumbfounded.

"Ah, what ah? Hurry up. We don't have a lot of time."

Ling Chen sat on the ground and thought evilly to himself. You bitch, you dare to bully me? Watch how I bully your cousin. Let's see who's more vicious!

Nanrong Hao wanted to cry, but his tears wouldn't come. He was here to visit his sister, yet he was actually dragged into this kind of business. As the esteemed young master of the Nanrong Family, when was he ever made to do this kind of thing?

After toiling away for nigh two hours till noontime, Nanrong Hao almost fainted with exhaustion when he finished cleaning the three cars.

Ling Chen placed his hands on his hips and strolled around the car a few times, before raising a thumb at Nanrong Hao.

"Alright, you can scram now, you brat. Don't forget to find me tonight."

Nanrong Hao nodded solemnly, before fleeing with his tail tucked between his legs, worried that Ling Chen would call him back to do menial tasks again.

Just as Nanrong Hao left the parking lot, Zhong Wei coincidentally entered. Seeing as Ling Chen managed to complete his tasks within the stipulated time, he couldn't find any excuses and could only tell Ling Chen to go for lunch. "There are other assignments in the afternoon."

When noontime had passed, just as Ling Chen had expected, Zhong Wei continued to make a fool out of him, sending him to clean the floor of the entire building complex.

Even if he worked himself to exhaustion, it was impossible to finish the task within half a day. Zhong Wei was clearly finding an excuse to dock his pay.

At the rate that things were going, Ling Chen was afraid that his thirteen thousand dollars would be wiped clean. After the month had passed, he might even need to pay them instead.

He was here to earn a living, not to receive punishment as a criminal. Su Lin that bitch was too vicious.

After mulling things over, he went to find Wei Jun to ask for Liu Kun's number and directly gave him a call.

"Steward Liu, I think if you want me to continue working here, thirteen thousand dollars may not be enough."

"What do you mean?"

"This is only my first day at work, but Zhong Wei had already deducted two thousand dollars of my pay."

"Mr Ling calm down. I will settle this matter immediately."

After hanging up, not even ten minutes later, Zhong Wei appeared in front of him.

"Go rest first. If there's anything else, I'll call you down."

Ling Chen curled his lips upwards. It seems like this Steward Liu was not someone you can underestimate; he was actually able to settle things so swiftly.

Little did he know that after he called Liu Kun, Liu Kun had directly reported the matter to Nanrong Yong. It was Nanrong Yong who had personally called Nanrong Wanqing and asked her to make Zhong Wei retract his order.

Just as Ling Chen was feeling pleased with himself in the office, Nanrong Wanqing, who was sitting on the topmost floor was feeling extremely glum.

The reason for her unhappiness was, of course, Ling Chen.

Ever since she took over the company, Nanrong Yong had never asked about company affairs, giving her free reign to run the company. She had absolute authority in the company.

She enjoyed this feeling, the feeling of having everything in the palm of her hand.

However, Ling Chen was an exception.

Grandpa had foisted Ling Chen onto her and left her with no room even to object.

Especially in the phone call just now, Nanrong Yong had revealed his unyielding stance. Unless Ling Chen quit of his own accord, no one could fire him.

Furthermore, within the company, other than work relating to security, he could reject any other type of assignment. Even she had no authority to force him to do anything.

With her intellect, she could naturally guess at her Grandpa's intentions. However, she hated this sort of arrangement as Ling Chen was outside her area of jurisdiction. The most important reason was that she disliked Ling Chen.

After pondering for a while, she made a phone call on the company's internal network.

"Ah Lan, call Ling Chen from Security up here."
