He knew what responsibility was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hence, he no longer did dangerous things like racing cars. Usually, a chauffeur would drive him to and from work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After answering Long Yuetian’s question, there was silence again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As idle chit-chat did not seem to work, Long Yueitna helplessly spoke to Zhai Zhongshen about work-related matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed like Zhai Zhongshen would only say a few more words during these conversation topics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They also discussed these topics the last time they went on a blind date.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached the underground parking lot of the Long Heng Group, Zhai Zhongshen politely opened the passenger door for Long Yuetian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as Long Yuetian got off, she was surrounded by a group of people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These people seemed to be in their early twenties. They had exaggerated hairstyles and wore leather studded clothes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them also held steel rods in their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their attitudes were arrogant and haughty as they said: “CEO Long, you’ve acted quite arrogantly lately. You’ve shown no mercy to your opponents.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“CEO Long, when you act so arrogantly and leave no leeway, aren’t you scared of what might happen in the future if you were to mess up?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recently, Long Yuetian ruthlessly crushed one of her business opponents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She showed no mercy at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Long Yuetian’s way of handling things. She did things fair and square but would never be merciful when she won.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And thus, she often offended her business opponents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time around, as she made her business opponent lose tens of millions of dollars, they sent her such a warning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Long Yuetian was not intimidated by this. After all, it was not her first time encountering such a situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>During her years of being the CEO of the Long Heng Group, she met and encountered all kinds of people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yuetian was just about to say something when a tall figure appeared beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she glanced to the side, Long Yuetian froze for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When the group of people saw Zhai Zhongshen, they sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Did you hire a bodyguard?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tch, maybe it’s her secret lover!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It appears as though Ms. Long knows that she’s offended quite a few people!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, they did not need to be afraid. There was only one person protecting Long Yuetian and there was a dozen of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On top of this, that one person was unarmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long Yuetian was slightly worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of Master Zhai’s request, there were no bodyguards around them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This meant the two of them were the only ones facing a dozen punks with steel rods in their hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Long Yuetian did not want Zhai Zhongshen to get hurt, she asked him to head back into the car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was used to handling these things herself. She did not want to involve anyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Zhai Zhongshen did not move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the punks did not have much patience, they decided to attack Long Yuetian and teach her a lesson. After all, they got paid to do this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they took too long, they would attract the attention of security and police.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The punks waved the steel rods in their hands and swung them towards Zhai Zhongshen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the steel rods did not hit Zhai Zhongshen’s body. Instead, he grasped onto them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite desperately trying to pull the steel rod away, the rod did not move at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast, Zhai Zhongshen seemed unmoved. He was as calm as always.\u003C\u002Fp>",631,"2026-06-06T02:09:16.047Z",1,"novelbin.me","605345199b8d231d9fd86ea06d561f5a3ce21c21adca4927dd3d5bc270425849","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-1151","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-1356",1465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-sidekick-to-bigshot-cover.jpg"]
