No.1 Bodyguard

Chapter 8 Yanhuang Club

The second day that Lin Xiaocao arrived at the Lin Clan was mostly peaceful and quiet. Lin Shuimo , who needed protection, did not go out. This was his first time returning to Nine Continents City as an adult. It could be said that Lin Xiaocao was completely unfamiliar with the place. He simply hid in his room and studied the map of Nine Continents City for a day.

His room was on the second floor of the villa. It was the best bedroom. It was large and spacious. The decoration was simple and low-key. It was a room personally arranged by Lin Huaiyu . Just by this action, it could be seen that Lin Xiaocao 's position in the heart of the old fox of the Lin family in Nine Continents City was not low.

Unfortunately, the result of the first day's meeting was a complete disappointment. Lin Xiaocao 's mood was calm, but Lin Huaiyu , who had only received a promise that resembled a curse, couldn't help but feel unhappy in his heart. Although he was still smiling the next day, the enthusiasm between the lines had clearly faded.

In the end, although Lin Xiaocao 's identity as an old disciple of Ye was not simple, it was not enough for the Lin Huaiyu family to kneel down and place their dignity under Lin Xiaocao 's knees.

Moreover, his identity and background were destined not to be exposed in the short term, He came back for revenge, No matter how low-key his methods were, It was definitely a bloody storm that could not be ignored, And the low-key political giant of the Ye Family was facing a crucial year of success. If Lin Xiaocao 's identity was exposed, once he started to attack, no matter where he was, it could affect the Ye Family. At this critical juncture, any minor incident could have a fatal effect in the end.

Lin Xiaocao knew this, but he was too lazy to say it. Lin Huaiyu was equally clear, but he didn't dare to say anything.

The Lin Clan's mansion on the third floor of the Heavenly Duke's Mansion was quiet. In broad daylight, the eldest son of the Lin Clan, Lin Chengzheng, went out to visit the bigwigs in the capital. Lin Yingye went to the Lin Enterprise to handle her work. After lunch, Lin Huaiyu took Elder Fu out and left. In addition to Lin Danqing, who had already returned to train last night, there were only Lin Xiaocao and Lin Shuimo , who were responsible for cleaning and cooking in the large villa.

Lin Xiaocao was accustomed to silence and silence. Lock yourself up in your room, Looking at the map, his gaze was focused. Countless red lines had already been drawn on the map. Starting from the luxurious mansion beneath his feet, lines that looked extremely messy in the eyes of outsiders spread in all directions. Then, they met on a certain street on the map and finally covered more than half of the Nine Continents City on the map.

He used to be an assassin. Although he was protecting Lin Shuimo 's safety, he still maintained most of his habits. Every time he went to a place, he would immediately study the map of his city and strive to be familiar with it.

Cairo, New York, Berlin, Madrid, Paris, Moscow, and Milan. In the past three years, the cities in his hand had drawn out a clear map under the outline of an ordinary ballpoint pen. But even so, Lin Xiaocao , who had long been used to this process, had to admit that the routes in Nine Continents City were indeed more complicated and profound than any other city he had studied.

In a vast country, this kind of connotation seemed to be something that had to exist.

The hour hand of the clock moved from early morning to late afternoon.

At six o'clock, Lin Xiaocao , who had already studied the map in front of him, suddenly stopped moving.

About five to six seconds later, the knock on the door sounded softly, not impatient, but with a sense of relief.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xiaocao rolled up the map in front of him, walked to the door and opened the door.

A beautiful white figure stood in front of the door, her watery eyes flashing as she looked at Lin Xiaocao , her smile calm and tranquil.

A tailored white dress that fits perfectly, The hem of the skirt was slightly longer, A small piece of white and smooth calf was revealed in the blur. A head of long, beautiful hair that had never been contaminated by hair dye casually spread over her shoulders, Her gentle yet unattractive face was slightly powdered. Under her fair neck, Half of his snowy and alluring shoulders were exposed to the air under the light, Lin Xiaocao 's gaze fell slightly down her shoulders. Lin Shuimo was strong enough to support all the proud and lofty breasts of a woman. Although this charming scenery was wrapped in a white dress, a mysterious and tiny ravine was about to be concealed. It was not much, but it was perfectly exposed.

Lin Shuimo 's figure was tall and slender, and she was wearing a pair of heels that were at least seven to eight centimeters tall. Her height was almost the same as Lin Xiaocao 's. She looked at Lin Xiaocao , who was sweeping her body back and forth without the slightest bit of displeasure. She chuckled and said, "Let's get ready to go."

"Alright."

Lin Xiaocao nodded. Today is the southwest Lin Clan's Young Master Lin Xiao's birthday, Lin Shuimo remembered this. He didn't forget that Lin Xiao's birthday party was at the Yanhuang Club. Lin Xiaocao studied the map for the whole afternoon and was deeply impressed by this place, which could be said to be one of the landmarks in Nine Continents City. If he set off now, under normal road conditions, it would be around seven o'clock, an hour's drive away.

"We don't have a dress suitable for your figure at home. I was negligent in buying it today. We'll go buy it tomorrow."

Lin Shuimo smiled awkwardly, seemingly embarrassed.

"It doesn't matter."

Lin Xiaocao turned around calmly. He directly closed the door. She locked the beautiful woman in a snow-white evening dress outside. It didn't matter if he wore a formal dress or not. The shirt, trousers, leather shoes, and shoes on his body were enough to cope with most of the scenes. It was just this season, and it was a little cold. However, this cold was completely negligible to Lin Xiaocao, who had lived in the snow and ice of the Kunlun Snow Peak for most of his childhood.

He returned to his room and pulled out a parcel from under the bed. He patted it casually and pulled the parcel open again. Looking at Lin Shuimo , who seemed to be in a daze outside the door, he said indifferently, "Let's go."

"What are you doing with this?!"

This was the first time that Second Miss Lin, who had been mercilessly locked out by a man, finally reacted. Because of her superiority as a great beauty, she naturally felt uncomfortable in her heart. She pointed at the parcel in Lin Xiaocao 's hand and said in a somewhat unkind tone.

She recognized the things in Lin Xiaocao 's hands. Yesterday was the first time he entered this villa. He was carrying this parcel. It was his luggage. It was not big. It was enough to hold a few sets of clothes.

This person really is. You still need to carry his luggage when you go out? What did he think of the Lin Family? Did he think that someone would take advantage of his departure to steal from him?

Lin Shuimo 's eyes turned slightly cold, and he felt even more unhappy in his heart.

What made her even more depressed was that her bodyguard didn't explain at all. He carried his things downstairs. Lin Shuimo took a deep breath and stomped his foot fiercely. He quickly took two steps to catch up. He took a coat in the hall on the first floor and left the villa behind Lin Xiaocao .

In Nine Continents City, private clubs and clubs were not uncommon. Especially in recent years, the number of clubs in private clubs had increased everywhere. On the surface, they were becoming more and more luxurious. However, their styles and audiences continued to decline. Clubs continued to open, and there was a tendency for them to bloom everywhere.

Among the countless private clubs, the Yanhuang Club had always occupied the throne of the number one club in the empire since its establishment. This club building, which had been in existence for more than 20 years, was not considered a trendy building. However, on the land that covered an area of nearly 10,000 mu, buildings that were not trendy were exceptionally magnificent.

As the first and only private club dominated by the empire, In more than twenty years, the Yanhuang Club had already grown into a colossus that spanned two terms of politics and commerce. The club had gathered almost all the leaders of the major clans within the empire, the most famous experts and scholars in the financial world, the most outstanding economic powerhouses in the empire's political circles, and some of the major chaebol outside the country.

It was no exaggeration to say that although the Yanhuang Club's name was only an entertainment club, it was actually an extremely strict and authoritative organization. Even its hidden power was somewhat unimaginable.

The Yanhuang Club has a ministerial family and an executive chairman.

The successive ministerial clans were the strongest clans in the empire. They did not hold a general election because they relied solely on their strength.

The club had a history of more than twenty years, and the current Minister Clan was the second, the Lin Clan in the southwest, and the Clan Head, Lin Fengxue .

While the club 's executive chairman is the official representative, Normally, they don't interfere with the club's operations, He was only responsible for grasping the general direction, All previous executive chairmen of the club had to be members of the highest decision-making bureau of the empire. They were chosen from the cabinet. Unlike ministerial families, the executive chairman of the club was now the third one. The first two were undoubtedly members of the bureau and the prime minister of the empire. Now, this one was Deputy Prime Minister Chen of the cabinet and the standing committee of the policy-making bureau.

A political giant about to become the empire's first female prime minister!

The club is vast, Landscape is complete, more than 60 percent of the land has been afforested, There is even a standard golf course inside, Most of the time, The majority of the members of the club rarely gathered together. Generally, small circles of people came here to relax. The club held a financial summit every other year. The ministers' family and the executive chairman would attend the meeting to discuss the current economic situation. The Yan Huang Club had always had a policy and goal since its establishment.

We are committed to the prosperity of the empire's economy, prevent the loss of imperial assets, and jointly build an orderly and healthy economic circle.

It may sound broad, but it's something that every member of the club is doing all the time.

"It has been a popular saying in Nine Continents City since a long time ago. Families that can enter the Yan Huang Club are the true rich families of the empire."

"Actually, these words are very correct. Although the Yanhuang Club is the last of the three clubs, it is only because it started relatively late, but its strength is very large. Within the empire, there was a ranking of the major venues, "Consider strength, background, actual influence, land area, architectural style, etc. The first is naturally the Hidden Dragon Sea where the policy bureau leaders live. For historical reasons, the Palace Museum ranks second. The third is the palace that everyone fears even though it has kept a low profile in recent years. As for the fourth, it is the Yan Huang Club."

Inside the car, Lin Shuimo leaned lazily against the chair and introduced Lin Xiaocao . Her eyes looked out of the window. Not far ahead, the red and yellow characters on the tall building gradually became clear. The dragon-flying and phoenix-dancing cursive script had a domineering and sharp aura that pierced through the sky in the night!

"Three big clubs?"

Lin Xiaocao asked calmly.

"The elite clubs in Europe, the Skull and Bones Association in North America, the Yan Huang Club in the Divine Continent Empire ."

Lin Shuimo 's tone was faint, carrying a trace of unconcealable disappointment and yearning, "These are the three strongest organizations." I heard from my grandfather, Twenty years ago, our Lin Clan was also a member of the Yan Huang Clan in the capital, and its ranking was not low. At that time, the Lin Clan in the southwest had only just risen, but times had changed. The Lin Clan in the capital had declined and was kicked out of the Yan Huang Clan's rankings, so we are unable to re-enter. However, the Lin Clan in the southwest has become a Minister Clan all the way. Perhaps it will become even more glorious in the future. "

"Then maybe, the weather will change. Perhaps the Lin Clan in the southwest will be even more miserable than your clan in a few years."

Lin Xiaocao narrowed his eyes and smiled. However, his eyes were exceptionally cold. it 's not that he doesn' t know what the three big clubs say, Although this has always been the case, But it was never acknowledged by too many people, Most people thought that there were only two clubs. Compared to the elite and skeletal societies, Yan Huang, who had only twenty years of history, was indeed too immature. Moreover, due to some limitations, there were many conflicts and games within Yan Huang. In Lin Xiaocao's opinion, if Yan Huang's situation continued, it wouldn't last for long.

"The possibility that you're talking about is too small."

Lin Shuimo smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You can't imagine the current momentum of the Lin Clan in the southwest. What kind of place is the Yanhuang Club?" There were only a handful of people who could hold a birthday party here. Lin Xiao was actually not qualified to do so. The only reason he could hold a birthday party here was because he was Lin Fengxue 's adopted son. "A young man with special treatment like him can be counted with a pair of hands within the empire."

"Lin Fengxue is just a lackey of a big shot. If you don't look at his master sitting in the high hall, it's not like there aren't many people who can kill him in one blow."

Lin Xiaocao said calmly. He lightly tapped on the accelerator and the red Tesla drove into the Yan Huang Club's gate.

Lin Shuimo 's expression changed. Looking at the night scene in the club, he quietly changed the topic, "Go to the underground parking lot number two. There are three main buildings inside Yanhuang. Only building number two and three are normally open to the public. Lin Xiao's birthday dinner is held in building number two and hall number five."

The car drove inside the club. According to the signboard on the roadside, Lin Xiaocao drove directly to the underground parking lot No. 2. He vaguely looked at the interior scenery through the street lamps that were more decorative than practical. In the darkness, everything was vivid. In addition, it was deep winter and everything was depressed. Everything was desolate.

The lights in underground car park number two were bright, When Lin Xiaocao and Lin Shuimo drove the car here, What they saw was a luxurious scene that was no less luxurious than any other auto show. Famous cars quietly parked in the parking spaces. The BBA of the German three great families were just ordinary characters. Land Rover, Jaguar, Cadillac, Lin Xiaocao even noticed Maybach, whose license plates were quite privileged, parked quietly in a corner.

There were very few popular supercars on the market. Most of the cars in the parking lot were luxury cars that pursued comfort and pragmatism. They weren't arrogant and domineering, but there was a kind of luxury everywhere. Compared to them, Lin Shuimo 's red Tesla was perhaps the rarest, but it was also the cheapest and most unfashionable.

Before Lin Xiaocao could sigh with emotion, another white Galado parked in the parking space beside Tesla. Amongst the large crowds of noble cars around him, the white super sports car looked different and flamboyant.

Lin Xiaocao frowned slightly. He hadn't gotten out of the car yet, but he could already feel a cold and venomous gaze coming from Gealado's driver's seat through the window.

"Whose car?"

Lin Xiaocao 's question was simple and straightforward.

Lin Shuimo seemed a little embarrassed. He turned around and looked at the supercar parked beside him. After hesitating for a moment, he said indifferently, "Zhang Ying's car. She is Lin Xiao's girlfriend."

She paused for a moment and added, "One."

"Tsk tsk, I remember that Young Master Lin seemed to say that he liked you very much in front of your grandfather."

Lin Xiaocao smiled. Xunxun's usual tone was filled with indescribable sarcasm in Lin Shuimo 's ears.

"You said it too. He just told my grandfather. As for whether he likes it or not, it doesn't matter. They are interested in where my father might arrive. Moreover, Lin Xiao is the eldest young master. Although he is a foster son, he is quite favored by Lin Fengxue . It is normal for him to have a few women around him."

Lin Shuimo 's tone was calm. He didn't seem to be in a hurry to get off the car for a while. The southwest Lin Clan's request for marriage to the Lin Clan in Nine Continents City had already been stirred up in the circle. The attitude of the Lin Clan in Nine Continents City wasn't clear. Meeting Lin Xiao's real girlfriend in such a situation was one of them, but it was inevitable that it would be a little embarrassing.

"You don't dare to get out of the car?"

Lin Xiaocao seemed to have understood what Lin Shuimo was thinking, and the corner of his mouth curved into a playful arc.

"There's no need."

Lin Shuimo shook his head. Her temperament became more and more calm. She was not the kind of woman that could be seen with a single glance. She was biased towards the mean in many ways. She was proud, but not piercing. She was gentle and not weak. She was quiet and calm. Even if she did not like the people of the Lin Family in Nine Continents City, Lin Xiaocao had to admit that being with this woman was indeed more comfortable.

Lin Shuimo didn't want to meet that woman called Zhang Ying, but the other party didn't seem to think so. The white Galado was silent and stopped alongside the red Tesla. It faintly formed a calm but obvious confrontation.

Lin Xiaocao , who had always had a keen perception of hostility, was completely certain that although the other party hadn't gotten off the car, his eyes were still firmly fixed on his own car.

Five minutes, six minutes…

Lin Shuimo 's patience was not bad. He calmly and leisurely spent about ten minutes with the other party. Seeing that the banquet time was about to begin, he finally smiled bitterly and tightened his tight coat. "Let's get off the car."

The moment a man and a woman stepped out of the red Tesla, the door of the white Galado was also opened. The two women in luxurious clothes in the sports car seemed to be afraid that Lin Shuimo and Lin Xiaocao would disappear. They trotted in front of the two and blocked their path with hostility.

Lin Xiaocao suddenly felt disgusted.

To be honest, the two women in front of them were not ugly. On the contrary, they were very beautiful in terms of their faces and figures. Two shiny mink coats wrapped around their figures, which were only dressed in formal gowns, gave them an aggressive and noble aura.

However, Lin Xiaocao felt very disgusted. This was entirely due to the other party's expression and attitude.

It wasn't a big deal to block the way, but what was it like to run over here nervously and block the way? It's too vulgar.

Moreover, Lin Xiaocao did not like their expressions and gazes. Her fierce and beautiful face was also a little ferocious and furious, like two vicious dogs that could pounce on people at any time.

Originally, beautiful women did this kind of thing, not only would it not be pleasing to the eye, but it would even make people feel wretched and disgusted.

Lin Shuimo 's expression was calm as he looked into the eyes of a tall woman. He extended his hand and whispered, "Hello, Zhang Ying."

"Who are you? What qualifications do you have to shake hands with my sister? Take your hand back. Do you really think that coming to the Yanhuang Club is a rich family's daughter?" The people from the second-rate clans are indeed so arrogant and ignorant. They are not polite at all. I really don't know what big brother Lin Xiao likes about you. "

Opposite Lin Shuimo , a girl who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old suddenly reached out and knocked off Lin Shuimo 's palm. She shook her hand in disdain as if it was dirty.

"Bao'er, don't say that."

Zhang Ying frowned and reached out to touch the little girl's head. "They are already arrogant and ignorant. Even if you keep saying that, they can't change it. As for why Lin Xiao likes her, you can ask Lin Xiao yourself later, right?"

Lin Shuimo 's expression turned cold as he quietly retracted his small hands. He calmly looked at the two women in front of him and said, "What's the matter?"

"What can we do for you? Who are you? This place belongs to your family? Can't even my sister and I stand here for a while? Hmph, it's you guys, lonely men and widows. I saw what you did in the car earlier. I'll tell Brother Lin Xiao in a moment. Dog and woman!"

The little girl called Bao'er asked fiercely. Then, she revealed a vicious smile. She looked at Lin Shuimo 's pretty face, which was pale with anger, and her eyes were filled with joy.

She paused and blinked her innocent but malicious eyes. She smiled sweetly and said, "I really saw what you guys did in the car just now."
