Chu Lingtian followed Bai Mei to their new residence.
This time, Bai Mei's dwelling was a standalone courtyard house on the outskirts of Dachang City, chosen for convenience and to avoid disturbing nearby residents, thus preventing unnecessary trouble.
"Mr. Chu!"
"Sister Mei!"
As Bai Mei, with Chu Lingtian's arm linked through hers, approached the courtyard gate, the four armed elite bodyguards stationed at the entrance all respectfully bowed their heads and greeted them in unison.
Chu Lingtian and Bai Mei nodded slightly in response before entering the courtyard.
"Ling Tian, I've arranged for fifty armed bodyguards here. What do you think?" Bai Mei asked Chu Lingtian with a smile.
Chu Lingtian replied, "When deploying troops, quality is paramount, not quantity. A single elite soldier who can fight a hundred is far superior to a hundred rabble. Therefore, from now on, you need to gradually streamline the members of the Red Flower Society, keeping only those who are truly capable, rewarding them with money and power, and entrusting them with important responsibilities."
"Mhm!" Bai Mei responded solemnly, then added with a hint of helplessness, "It's hardly easy to cultivate an elite force."
"Recruit them," Chu Lingtian suggested after a moment's thought. "Recruit a batch of retired soldiers and have them join the Red Flower Society to form an elite team."
"Retired soldiers are indeed practical. However, it's very difficult for a martial arts sect like ours to recruit retired soldiers to serve, as many of them feel that joining an underground organization is a betrayal of their beliefs in justice, serving the country, and the people." Bai Mei frowned, having considered recruiting retired soldiers before but finding no viable solution.
Chu Lingtian smiled, "How about this: you just focus on recruiting the retired soldiers, regardless of the method. Gather them first, and I'll personally speak with them. It should be fine."
"Okay, okay." Bai Mei nodded happily.
The Red Flower Society was currently lacking in strength. If they could acquire an elite team composed of skilled retired soldiers, their power would undoubtedly increase significantly, potentially allowing them to contend with the four great families of Lu, Zhao, Qi, and Wei.
*Slap!*
Suddenly, Chu Lingtian slapped Bai Mei's ample backside with his right hand.
"Ah..." Bai Mei let out a soft cry, then looked at Chu Lingtian with a shy smile, understanding his unspoken intentions. She turned and swayed her hips as she walked into the bedroom.
Chu Lingtian chuckled mischievously and quickly followed.
At precisely six o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Lingtian arrived at the agreed-upon dining location previously sent by Shao Hu. It was a secluded, almost hidden private estate.
As Chu Lingtian reached the estate's entrance, two stunningly beautiful, tall young women with ample bosoms and behinds, dressed in alluring maid outfits, emerged from within, their high heels clicking on the ground.
"You must be Mr. Chu, correct?" one of the young women asked with a sweet smile.
Chu Lingtian nodded.
The other young woman also smiled and said, "Mr. Chu, this is Dachang City's finest private dining estate. Welcome. Sister Hu has already reserved a private room for you. Please follow us."
"Alright," Chu Lingtian replied.
Following the two young women in their sexy maid outfits, Chu Lingtian stepped into the estate.
The entire estate exuded an ancient and elegant atmosphere, giving a sense of sophistication.
All the male and female staff members who saw Chu Lingtian bowed with a smile, demonstrating impeccable politeness and service.
After passing through a small bamboo grove, a man-made waterfall with rockery, and several corridors, the two young women leading the way stopped.
*Knock, knock, knock.*
One of the young women knocked on the private room door.
"Please come in," Shao Hu's voice called from inside.
However, the young women did not enter or immediately push the door open. Instead, one of them respectfully bowed and whispered, "Sister Hu, Mr. Chu has arrived."
"Please invite him in," Shao Hu replied.
At this, the other young woman gently pushed open the private room door and smiled at Chu Lingtian, saying, "Mr. Chu, please come in."
Chu Lingtian entered the room, and the two young women softly closed the door behind him.
Seeing Chu Lingtian walk in, Shao Hu, who was sitting on the sofa, quickly rose to welcome him.
"You're quite punctual," Shao Hu said to Chu Lingtian with a smile.
Chu Lingtian also smiled, "When a beautiful woman invites me, how could I be late?"
"How is it? Are you satisfied with the environment here?" Shao Hu asked.
Chu Lingtian surveyed the room. He noticed that the room's decor was exquisite, with the tables and chairs entirely made of golden nanmu wood, making them quite valuable. Even more peculiar was the large sofa next to them, spacious enough for two people to sleep side-by-side.
"It's good. This is my first time in a place like this," Chu Lingtian replied.
Shao Hu glanced at Chu Lingtian, then asked with a seductive smile, "Shall we look first, or eat first?"
"What do you mean, look first or eat first?" Chu Lingtian asked back.
"Do I take off my panties first... or do we eat, and then you can look at me like this?" Shao Hu's beautiful eyes gazed directly into Chu Lingtian's, her demeanor exceedingly alluring.
Chu Lingtian smiled and asked, "Are you really going to let me look? Then I'll be taking advantage of you."
"I told you, when you were treating my leg injury at the airport, you accidentally saw my black lace panties. Later, when you carried me to the car, I asked if you liked looking. If you did, I'd take them off for you to examine carefully next time. You said you liked it, so you could take a look, and I must keep my word." Shao Hu's expression was so suggestive that it made even Chu Lingtian, a man experienced with many women, feel a stir of excitement.
"How about we look after dinner? That way, we can look for as long as we want without worrying about delaying other matters," Chu Lingtian agreed with a smile.
"Fine, you call the shots. Tonight, I'll listen to you," Shao Hu said, her words laden with innuendo, deliberately tempting Chu Lingtian.
Seeing that Chu Lingtian had taken the bait, Shao Hu felt immensely pleased and inwardly sneered. She thought that after dinner, as long as Chu Lingtian dared to lean his head closer to look at her crotch, her Iron Crotch Technique would activate, and with a clamp of her legs, Chu Lingtian's skull would surely shatter, leading to his death. Once Chu Lingtian was dead, dealing with Liu Bingxue would become as easy as turning her hand.
*Ding!*
At this moment, Shao Hu's phone rang. She picked it up and saw a message from her subordinate: Liu Bingxue had arrived.
After glancing at the text message, Shao Hu stood up from her chair and said to Chu Lingtian with a smile, "There's a small matter at my company. I need to step out for a moment to make a call."
"Okay," Chu Lingtian nodded indifferently.
Shao Hu stood up, opened the private room door, and walked out.
