Chapter 46: Guard Against Love Rivals

After leaving, Chi Ming took out his phone and opened the chat window. He long-pressed and deleted a message sent half an hour ago.
Originally, he had planned to install a spyware app on Shen Qingyue’s phone, to guard against wolves, theft, ex-husbands, and rivals. However, considering the consequences if Shen Qingyue were to discover it… he restrained himself and chose to plant a mole in the project department. Whenever there was an issue on Shen Qingyue’s side, they would immediately inform him. Although the effect was not as immediate, it was still sufficient.
However, when he reached the ground floor, he saw a suspiciously flashy and flamboyantly dressed man standing outside the flower bed.
Chi Ming calmly walked over and saw that the man with grandma-gray dyed hair was muttering to his phone, “Indeed, he’s the young lady of the Shen family, so beautiful! An only child, both parents deceased, and just divorced. She must be feeling empty lately…”
The man’s name was David, a small-time singer who also dabbled in acting. But to put it bluntly, he used this identity to seduce wealthy women. Recently, he had been with a wealthy woman in her fifties, and by a stroke of luck, he had encountered Shen Qingyue. After inquiring about her, he became interested. He could not wait to abandon the old woman and embrace Shen Qingyue.
After all, who wants to coax an old woman when there’s a young rich woman to hold? Of course, he would not ditch the old woman until he was sure he could win Shen Qingyue’s affection. After all, the old woman was quite generous to him.
He learned that Shen Qingyue was currently working at the family business, so he would occasionally come by. Although he couldn’t enter the main building, he could stake out at the entrance, waiting for a fateful encounter with Shen Qingyue.
But suddenly, he felt a chill behind him and turned around slowly, only to see a man with a cold expression. He had been following Shen Qingyue for a while and naturally recognized Chi Ming, but he did not have the ability to investigate Chi Ming’s background, which even Qin Zhen found ambiguous. He thought Chi Ming was just an ordinary man, maybe someone like him, trying to climb up using women.
He tentatively said, “Hey… Bro, fellow colleague. Um, I’m not trying to steal your thunder. How about we exchange resources? I reckon you have access to the main building and know a lot about the inside. I’ll share some of my generous benefactor’s resources with you! When it comes to making money, who doesn’t want more, right? You share Miss Shen’s information with me? Rest assured, I’m loyal. Even if I succeed, I won’t let Miss Shen reject you! We can both enjoy the benefits together…”
Chi Ming stared at him with chilling amber eyes.
David rambled on, but he saw Chi Ming’s expression becoming increasingly unpleasant, and he could not speak anymore. He thought Chi Ming was about to attack him, but instead, Chi Ming suddenly laughed. “Sure, I’ll tell you.”
Following Chi Ming’s instructions, David approached the reception desk with a composed demeanor and began lying, “Hello, I have an appointment with Miss Shen. Could you please inform her?”
The receptionist scrutinized him from head to toe, about to speak, when a group of people came out of the elevator. She hurriedly walked over, “Miss Shen…”
Hearing ‘Miss Shen’ , David immediately put on a professional smile and flirtatiously said, “Miss Shen, you…”
He turned his head and saw the person clearly, and his smile froze instantly.
Shen Jun approached him, exuding a menacing aura.
David was terrified and could not speak properly, “I… I got the wrong person…” That colleague had actually deceived him! Was it necessary? The information he gave was all true! The next time he saw that jerk, he would definitely settle the score!
Thinking this way, David tried to bypass Shen Jun and run, but he was grabbed by the neck by one of Shen Jun’s bodyguards and forced to stop.
Shen Jun looked at him. “You came to find Qingyue, right? Don’t let me see you here again, or don’t blame me for being impolite.”
There were several fierce-looking bodyguards standing beside Shen Jun. David was just a freeloading pretty boy. How could he dare to argue? He quickly nodded in agreement, and only then did Shen Jun release him.
Back in the office, Shen Jun sent a text message to Chi Ming: [It’s taken care of.]
Chi Ming replied, [Thank you, Grandpa.]
Such a well-behaved and innocent performance.
After being driven out that time, they did not know if David gave up or became more determined. After all, Shen Qingyue was such a big piece of meat; he could not give up just like that. He took the opportunity to stake out near the headquarters of the Shen Corporation for a whole morning and finally caught sight of Shen Qingyue and her colleagues..
