Chapter 724: Security Team

"Mom, why did you have my husband go to Qingfeng Shan Zhuang?"

"The chain store project that the Tang family brat was handling has already been vetoed by the board of East Prosperity International. Let Chen Yang clean up that mess, and the Tang family brat won't find any excuse to cause trouble again."

"Hmph, haven't those two brothers caused enough trouble? In the end, it wasn't my husband who dealt with them."

"A strong dragon doesn't overwhelm the local snake; even if Chen Yang is formidable, two fists can't fight four hands." Wang Zhishan said sternly to her daughter: "The Tang family's influence in Modu is deeply entrenched; it's not as simple as you think. If pushed to the edge, they might not move against you, but Chen Yang will definitely be in danger."

Chu Min said dismissively: "During this period, Tang Qingfeng has also sent people to keep an eye on my husband, but it wasn't that Xiao Qing and Xiao Bai took care of them."

Wang Zhishan glared at Chu Min and said coldly: "Is tailing someone the same as making someone disappear from this world? If pushed to the limit, those desperadoes the Tang family keeps are enough to kill you both several times over."

"That's not necessarily true!" Chu Min said calmly to the woman in green driving ahead: "Xiao Qing, tell Mom how many security personnel we have now."

The woman in green, while driving, said: "Madam, we have recently recruited another twenty-four security personnel, all special forces veterans from various military districts. Currently divided into two teams, I lead one team responsible for protecting the young lady. Xiao Bai's other team is responsible for secretly protecting Director Chen."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhishan's face showed a hint of relief. She immediately praised: "This Chen Yang kid has considered things quite thoroughly; it has put my mind at ease quite a bit."

Chu Min, hearing this, rolled her eyes and said: "Mom, he even left his own bodyguards in Xingcheng to freeload; how could he consider all this? These people are all supported by my money."

Wang Zhishan looked at her daughter, somewhat surprised, and asked curiously: "Hiring that many people must cost a lot, right? Didn't he even ask about it?"

Chu Min shrugged slightly: "I'm spending my own money; I never intended to let him know."

Wang Zhishan snorted lightly: "You loaf around all day; where do you get the money? I bet it's all from Chen Yang."

Seeing her mother didn't believe her, Chu Min said proudly: "He gave me a sum of money, but I haven't been idle. Recently, I made tens of millions in the stock market!"

"That was also Chen Yang's advice, right?" Wang Zhishan knew her daughter very well; she wasn't the type to make money from stocks. On the other hand, this new son-in-law is indeed a nationally renowned stock god. Starting from scratch, he amassed hundreds of billions of wealth in just a few years, a miracle in the financial world.

"He gave me a direction, but I picked the stocks myself." Chu Min said proudly to Wang Zhishan: "Your daughter's eye for stocks is far from ordinary. More than half of the stocks I picked hit the daily limit."

Seeing her daughter so happy, Wang Zhishan also couldn't be bothered to pour cold water on her. She reminded Chu Min: "You've finally found someone who satisfies you; don't be foolish like Chu Ning! Men inevitably have some social obligations when out. As long as it's not excessive, when it's time to be clueless, just be clueless."

Chu Min laughed: "Mom, rest assured, this man I painstakingly won over will definitely not be given away."

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhishan feigned anger: "A remarried man with a few kids, and you still go to great lengths to please him—truly giving the Chu family face!"

Chu Min immediately pouted and retorted: "Mom, I'm pursuing my own happiness—what's wrong with that!"

Wang Zhishan sighed: "You're too proactive; Chen Yang might not take it to heart. Over time, problems will surely arise."

Chu Min said nonchalantly: "Even if problems arise, it's fine. If we divorce, even if I can't get half of the family assets, I can still get a billion-dollar settlement like his several ex-wives. With that money, it's enough for me to live a carefree life with my son."

Seeing her daughter had already planned an escape route, Wang Zhishan felt further talk would be wasted, so she ended the conversation.

That daytime, the mother and daughter shuttled back and forth between major malls in Modu, and only with two vehicles did they manage to bring the needed items home.

After dinner, Wang Zhishan summoned Chen Yang to her side.

"Chen Yang, I'm returning to Yangcheng tomorrow; I have some things to discuss with you."

"Mom, you rarely come; why not stay a few more days with Chu Min?"

"No, there's still a pile of matters at home waiting for me to handle. As long as Min Min is doing well here, I and your father will be at ease."

"Mom, rest assured, I won't let Chu Min suffer any grievance!"

Wang Zhishan didn't doubt Chen Yang's sincerity; after all, one can tell at a glance whether her daughter is happy or not.

She was more worried about the situation in Yangcheng.

"Chen Yang, you don't need to constantly worry about the old master's side; as long as you treat Min Min well, his attitude will eventually change."

"As for the wedding, let's wait for now. Leaving aside the old master, Min Min's father is also very busy and definitely can't spare time in the short term."

"Moreover, Chu Ning's emotions are a bit unstable now. Although it doesn't concern you two much, everyone worries that if things get exposed, it will further stimulate her. So, before her emotions stabilize, you two should endure some grievance."

Chen Yang indicated there was no problem. Although Chu Min had hurt him, they ultimately still shared a deep, unforgettable affection. Emotionally speaking, he still hopes she can do better.

At this moment, Wang Zhishan's expression suddenly turned solemn. She said to Chen Yang: "Your status is different now; when you go out to handle affairs, you should still be cautious. Min Min has recruited some security personnel; from now on, let them be responsible for your safety. Under no special circumstances, never let the security personnel stray too far from you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang laughed and said: "Mom, I'm used to freedom; I don't like having too many people around me. Besides, I don't usually engage in social activities; my routine is basically just between the office and home. Let those security guards follow Chu Min instead!"

Wang Zhishan slightly furrowed her brows, solemnly said: "Chen Yang, you're now a married man; don't just think about your own comfort. If something happens, would you let my Min Min, still young, become a widow?"

Seeing Wang Zhishan's firm attitude, Chen Yang could only nod in agreement. This decision by his mother-in-law seemed to leave him no room to choose.

Perhaps knowing that Wang Zhishan was leaving, Chen Yang slept especially soundly that night.

But the next day, after seeing Wang Zhishan off on her flight back to Yangcheng, Chen Yang was surprised to discover that the scale of the security team Chu Min had recruited was somewhat beyond his imagination.

Not only did the personnel number reach twenty-six, but each person also looked like no pushover.
