The Personal Bodyguard of the Female CEO

Upon seeing the lady's appearance, Wang Dadong immediately knew she was the person he was supposed to meet today.

She was Lin Shiyan's aunt, Li Wan.

Li Wan was thirty-eight years old, but she looked barely over thirty. She was well-maintained, wearing a purple dress, her hair piled on top of her head, exuding an air of elegance.

Li Wan had entered the Lin Family early on. Although the Lin Family hadn't been flourishing at the time, with the rise of the Shiyan Group, their quality of life had significantly improved.

Wearing designer brands, living in a villa, with her children studying abroad, such a life should have been the epitome of Perfection.

There was really no need for her to bring her only eighteen-year-old son into the Shiyan Group.

After all, even working as a manager at Shiyan would only earn about two hundred thousand a year, which was insignificant for a wealthy family like hers.

When Wang Dadong saw Li Wan's villa, he found it hard to understand her actions, but now, he understood.

Perhaps Li Wan had her own unavoidable reasons for doing so.

In the living room, besides Li Wan, there was also a man in his forties sitting on the sofa.

The middle-aged man was leisurely smoking.

After finishing a cigarette, the middle-aged man waved at Li Wan.

Li Wan's face immediately showed a look of terror, her expression pleading even more.

"No, please, no!"

The middle-aged man's face showed a wicked smile as he said, "No? Are you sure?"

With that, he took out something resembling a cold capsule toy from his pocket.

Seeing that, Li Wan suddenly acted like a wolf spotting its prey, desperately wanting to pounce on it.

But the man quickly put it away.

"Want it, do you? Reach out your hand." The man continued to smirk wickedly.

Despite being very reluctant, Li Wan still stretched out her trembling hand.

Hiss~

A searing sound rang out, and Li Wan's face instantly showed an expression of utter pain, her forehead beading with sweat.

Observing from a hidden spot, Wang Dadong was dumbfounded, wondering what on earth that thing was, that Li Wan was willing to let the man burn her hand with a cigarette butt to get it.

The heat of a cigarette butt is comparable to a red-hot branding iron.

The man twisted the cigarette butt firmly into Li Wan's palm. Only when it extinguished did he remove his hand.

Li Wan's face was already covered in sweat, her body trembling from the pain.

"Now, now can I have it..." Li Wan asked the man, trembling.

The man handed the capsule to Li Wan.

With another wicked smile, he gently patted Li Wan's head as if she were his pet and said, "Yes, that's right. I like obedient dogs."

After speaking, he swaggered away.

"You had better stop with this stuff, or you won't have long to live." A low voice echoed in the living room.

"I don't want to, but I can't control myself..." Li Wan looked up, her face twisted with anguish.

Wang Dadong shook his head helplessly.

When he entered the living room, he could smell what that thing was.

It was a substance developed by a very evil Organization that made people addictive.

To his surprise, Lin Shiyan's aunt was hooked on such a horrifying thing.

Wang Dadong did not stop Li Wan because he knew that stopping her now would drive her insane.

Twenty minutes later, Li Wan slowly opened her eyes, her beautiful eyes falling on Wang Dadong as she asked, "Who are you? Why are you in my house?"

"Who is he?" Wang Dadong responded with a question.

Li Wan turned her head away, seemingly reluctant to answer Wang Dadong's question.

"If you don't tell me who he is, I can't help you," said Wang Dadong.

Li Wan snorted with disdain, "Help me? Who do you think you are? No one can help me."

She knew full well that the thing was not to be consumed recklessly, yet she couldn't control herself.

For that thing, she'd even die if needed.

Seeing Wang Dadong remain silent, Li Wan continued, "Do you know what I've sacrificed for that thing?"

Wang Dadong's gaze fell on Li Wan, and he lightly nodded. He had just seen Li Wan allow that man to burn her hand with a cigarette butt for that item.

"No, you don't know!" Li Wan shook her head sorrowfully.

Li Wan was covered in scars.

All sorts of scars.

From knife cuts, whip lashes, cigarette burns...

Too many to count.

"See? Can you really save me?" Li Wan, not knowing why she was saying such things to a man she had never met, laughed at herself.

Initially, Wang Dadong was very angry at Li Wan for forcibly placing her son in the Shiyan Group, but now, he felt a faint sense of sympathy in his heart.

Other than her pretty face, almost every part of Li Wan was marked with scars.

Li Wan began rummaging on the sofa, seemingly searching for something.

Wang Dadong seemed to know what Li Wan was looking for, took out a pack of cigarettes, and tossed one to Li Wan.

Li Wan immediately held it between her lips, lit it, took a deep drag, and then said slowly, "Judging by your appearance, you're in your twenties. Have you experienced true despair? Do you know what it's like to let someone cut your body with a knife for the sake of something?"
