From Sidekick to Bigshot

"Rarely," Zhai Zhongshen replied.

Similar to Zhai Yunsheng two years ago, Zhai Zhongshen enjoyed racing cars when he was younger.

However, when his older brother passed away, he decided to avoid those dangerous hobbies.

As the person who once protected him was gone, he had to take on the responsibility of protecting his family. He knew what responsibility was.

Hence, he no longer did dangerous things like racing cars. Usually, a chauffeur would drive him to and from work.

After answering Long Yuetian's question, there was silence again.

As idle chit-chat did not seem to work, Long Yueitna helplessly spoke to Zhai Zhongshen about work-related matters.

It seemed like Zhai Zhongshen would only say a few more words during these conversation topics.

They also discussed these topics the last time they went on a blind date.

When they reached the underground parking lot of the Long Heng Group, Zhai Zhongshen politely opened the passenger door for Long Yuetian.

As soon as Long Yuetian got off, she was surrounded by a group of people.

These people seemed to be in their early twenties. They had exaggerated hairstyles and wore leather studded clothes.

All of them also held steel rods in their hands.

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."

"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?"

Recently, Long Yuetian ruthlessly crushed one of her business opponents.

She showed no mercy at all.

This was Long Yuetian's way of handling things. She did things fair and square but would never be merciful when she won.

And thus, she often offended her business opponents.

This time around, as she made her business opponent lose tens of millions of dollars, they sent her such a warning.

However, Long Yuetian was not intimidated by this. After all, it was not her first time encountering such a situation.

During her years of being the CEO of the Long Heng Group, she met and encountered all kinds of people.

Long Yuetian was just about to say something when a tall figure appeared beside her.

When she glanced to the side, Long Yuetian froze for a moment.

When the group of people saw Zhai Zhongshen, they sneered.

"Did you hire a bodyguard?"

"Tch, maybe it's her secret lover!"

"It appears as though Ms. Long knows that she's offended quite a few people!"

After all, they did not need to be afraid. There was only one person protecting Long Yuetian and there was a dozen of them.

On top of this, that one person was unarmed.

Long Yuetian was slightly worried.

Because of Master Zhai's request, there were no bodyguards around them.

This meant the two of them were the only ones facing a dozen punks with steel rods in their hands.

As Long Yuetian did not want Zhai Zhongshen to get hurt, she asked him to head back into the car.

She was used to handling these things herself. She did not want to involve anyone else.

However, Zhai Zhongshen did not move.

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.

If they took too long, they would attract the attention of security and police.

The punks waved the steel rods in their hands and swung them towards Zhai Zhongshen.

However, the steel rods did not hit Zhai Zhongshen's body. Instead, he grasped onto them.

Despite desperately trying to pull the steel rod away, the rod did not move at all.

In contrast, Zhai Zhongshen seemed unmoved. He was as calm as always.
