Chapter 109 Making Moves

The employees who were setting up the booth over there heard the cries for help and immediately rushed over.

When they saw Manager Zhu lying on the ground, convulsing and foaming at the mouth, they rushed forward to help.

Although they all disliked this guy, seeing someone on the verge of death, they wouldn't stand idly by.

The ambulance arrived in just a few minutes.

"He has a hidden illness, more like epilepsy. Pry open his mouth, and be careful not to let him bite his tongue."

When they worked together to pry open his mouth, they discovered that a large section of Manager Zhu's tongue had already been swallowed by himself.

All the blood that flowed out had also been swallowed.

"Hurry and get him back in the ambulance."

The ambulance left quickly.

Su Nianxue also heard about these events, her brows furrowed slightly, and she looked at Mu Feng, who was sitting on the sofa calmly reading a newspaper.

"You didn't do this, did you?"

Mu Feng smiled slightly, "For some ungrateful beasts, a harsh lesson should be taught, lest they bite the hand that feeds them."

Just as Su Nianxue was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.

"Enter!"

The door was pushed open, and Du Jiaojiao's small face poked in, her beautiful large eyes curved into crescent moons.

"You're all here, so I don't have to go find my cousin-in-law."

"What's the matter?" Su Nianxue asked, surprised. This person was clearly looking for Mu Feng.

"Cousin, can I borrow my cousin-in-law for half a day?"

"Please, I'm really in big trouble and need cousin-in-law to save me!" Du Jiaojiao trotted over and said coquettishly, shaking Su Nianxue's arm.

Su Nianxue chuckled, "Just tell me what it is. As for whether Feng Ge is willing to help you, I can't decide."

Du Jiaojiao directly kissed Su Nianxue's cheek, "I knew cousin was the best. As long as you agree, cousin-in-law definitely won't refuse."

Mu Feng said with a half-smile, "You haven't even said what it is. If you want me to pretend to be your boyfriend, you can dismiss that idea now. I have no intention of taking the blame for you."

Du Jiaojiao immediately shook her head, huffing indignantly, "Do I look like someone nobody wants? Why would I need you to find me a boyfriend? I want you to be my bodyguard."

"No!" Mu Feng didn't even look up, turning a page of the newspaper.

It was as if Du Jiaojiao was less captivating than the newspaper in his hands.

Her extremely beautiful face, with every step she took, seemed to carry turbulent waves.

However, Mu Feng was oblivious to all of it.

Du Jiaojiao deliberately put on an angry expression, "Cousin, look how stingy he is. Even if he's just protecting me for half a day, I feel a bit uneasy without him by my side."

"I just want to attend an event."

"What event?" Su Nianxue asked curiously.

"I haven't met my classmates since I got back. Now they know I'm back and have invited me out. But there's someone I dislike there, which really annoys me. If I bring cousin-in-law with me then, I'll have cousin-in-law teach anyone who displeases me a lesson."

"I'll tell them I brought my bodyguard to act according to my commands, so they won't blame my cousin-in-law."

Du Jiaojiao said through gritted teeth, as if hating someone.

Su Nianxue turned to Mu Feng, "Why don't you accompany Jiao Jiao?"

"She was bullied in college, almost..."

Before she could finish, Du Jiaojiao covered her mouth.

"Cousin, those are my embarrassing moments, don't say them."

Mu Feng closed the newspaper, a faint smile appearing on his face, "Since my wife has spoken, I'll reluctantly help you."

"But let me make it clear beforehand, at most until closing time tonight."

"I still have to go home and accompany my wife!"

Du Jiaojiao immediately beamed, "Then let's go quickly. I knew cousin-in-law was the best. I'll treat you to dinner later."

"Cousin, I'll bring you something delicious when I come back!"

When they got outside the company.

"Cousin-in-law, do you think my car is pretty? I just paid the down payment for it. This is my own hard-earned money, my blood, sweat, and tears!"

Du Jiaojiao pointed to a red Beetle parked nearby.

As she spoke, she seemed both pained and utterly delighted.

Mu Feng smiled faintly, "Your family's company might not be a top-tier conglomerate, but buying a car should be easy. Why save up yourself?"

Du Jiaojiao's pretty little face showed a proud expression, "I won't ask them for money!"

"I can be self-reliant. I didn't take a penny from them during my years studying abroad; I earned it all by working part-time. How about that? Am I amazing?"

Mu Feng smiled and nodded, "You are indeed amazing. But when you bought this car, didn't you get it inspected?"

"The brakes have been cut. You're bound to have a car accident if you go out."

"How is that possible? I just bought it new, and you can't tell anything just by looking at it?" Du Jiaojiao still didn't quite believe it.

Mu Feng said with a half-smile, "Get in the car and step on the brakes."

Du Jiaojiao didn't believe these words at all.

She got into the car and stepped on the brake pedal, then looked at Mu Feng.

Mu Feng simply rested his hand on the car window and applied a slight force.

The car was effortlessly pushed forward.

Du Jiaojiao's beautiful eyes widened, and then, extreme anger appeared in her beautiful large eyes, "I just drove it back, and the car already has problems. I have to go back and find them."

"I spent over a hundred thousand for the down payment, and I bought a faulty car! I'm so angry!"

Mu Feng crossed his arms and chuckled, "It seems you didn't listen to me at all. I told you someone tampered with your brake lines."

"Someone wants you to have a car accident, understand?"

Du Jiaojiao finally reacted, the anger on her face turning from red to pale.

"I have no grudges with anyone, and I haven't provoked anyone. Who is so vicious to want to kill me?"

Mu Feng said calmly, "That's something you need to ask yourself. And sometimes, it's not that you've caused trouble for someone to retaliate. Perhaps your very existence is blocking someone's path."

"What do you mean?" Du Jiaojiao instinctively asked.

"You're not a complete idiot, use your brain and think about what's going on. I've given you enough hints."

Mu Feng said with a hint of exasperation, "If you continue to be so carefree, you won't even know how you died when something happens."
