This bodyguard is too invincible

Chapter 223: Resolving Conflicts



Seeing him so stubborn, Su Wanqiao felt helpless.

"Lin Shuang, will you please listen to me? The Du Family has already started targeting you! They declared today that they want us to hand you over! Once you're handed over, do you know what that means? The Du Family has built its influence over a century, with an extremely deep foundation in Hai City and at least tens of thousands of members! I know you're strong, but how can one person confront tens of thousands? Do you think you're Superman?" Su Wanqiao said, a bit annoyed!

She meant well for Lin Shuang, but why couldn't this man discern right from wrong?

At such a critical juncture, was he still here waiting to die?

Lin Shuang lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, "Having many people doesn't necessarily mean they're useful. Fighting wars depends on tactics. Besides, a mere underground family like ants, I really haven't taken them seriously. Not to mention tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands wouldn't scare me. Don't worry."

Lin Shuang spoke the truth.

As the King of the Dark World, would he fear mere tens of thousands?

Years ago, overseas, he had once beheaded an enemy general alone amidst hundreds of thousands!

As long as the enemy general's head was taken, what use were those hundreds of thousands? Like scattering ants, they would eventually flee for their lives, not forming an army.

The mere tens of thousands of Du Family members, who were just a group of underworld critters, Lin Shuang cared even less.

But Su Wanqiao simply thought he was boasting.

No matter how Su Wanqiao pleaded, she couldn't persuade Lin Shuang.

"Forget it! I'm done with you! Live or die, it's up to you! I've done my duty! Hope you don't regret it!" Frustrated by this stubborn man, Su Wanqiao slammed the door on her way out...

She was done with it!

Seeing the woman leave in a huff... Lin Shuang shook his head helplessly, "Ah... this woman has such a temper. If she's brought home in the future, she might be hard to handle."

Su Wanqiao stormed back to her office and reported the matter to her father.

Although she verbally said she didn't care, she still discussed it over the phone with her father. Together, they thought of a way to protect Lin Shuang.

Finally, after half an hour of discussion, Su Wanqiao and her father came up with a plan.

...

At noon, Su Beicheng personally made a visit to an old leader he once worked under.

This old leader was Gu Qinglian who is now a member of the Hai City court branch and holds a high position.

Originally a bureaucrat, Su Beicheng had been a subordinate under this Mr. Gu. Later, when state-owned enterprises laid off employees, Su Beicheng also resigned and went into business, founding the Su Corporation.

Meanwhile, this leader's position grew increasingly high, now a high-ranking official of the Jiangnan court branch, overseeing part of Jiangnan's order.

Su Beicheng rarely associated with this old leader in recent years to avoid suspicion.

Today, to protect Lin Shuang, he had to seek help from this old leader under necessity.

Su Beicheng's convoy reached the Justice Bureau of Hai City.

His old leader was the head of this Justice Bureau, controlling Jiangnan's legal regulations.

With some precious tea leaves in hand, Su Beicheng arrived at the old leader's office.

He personally pleaded for help, hoping this leader could intervene and resolve the crisis with the Du Family.

Upon hearing Su Beicheng's request, the old leader Gu Qinglian's expression grew solemn.

Offending the Du Family was indeed serious.

After repeated pleas from Su Beicheng, the old leader finally agreed to help.

This leader, a man of high standing, rarely interacted with businessmen. But today, for the sake of his former subordinate, Gu Qinglian decided to make an exception.

"How about this, I'll contact the Du Family and set up a meeting time for everyone to sit down and talk. Your conflicts can be discussed, and maybe we can turn a big issue into a small one, what do you think?" Gu Qinglian said after a long contemplation.

Su Beicheng nodded repeatedly, "That would be great! With you intervening, the Du Family should show some respect! Mr. Gu, thank you so much for this!"

Su Beicheng then offered the precious tea leaves to the old leader.

But they were declined by Gu Qinglian.

"Su, you know me, I serve the government and never accept gifts. I'm helping you this time for the sake of our old friendship and also to stabilize Jiangnan's order, as once the Du Family makes a move, the order in Jiangnan could be disturbed. So, for both public and personal reasons, I had to intervene to resolve this conflict. You can take your gifts back," said the old leader Gu Qinglian earnestly.

Being the head of the Justice Bureau, he naturally could not accept a bribe.

Su Beicheng nodded repeatedly and carefully took back the tea leaves.

...

In the evening, after contacting the old leader, a meeting time was arranged with the Du Family.

The time was set for tonight at five o'clock, within the Du Family Manor.

At five in the evening, Su Beicheng personally drove, accompanying the old leader... to the Du Family Manor.

Whether the conflict with the Du Family could be resolved tonight depended entirely on this old leader.
