chapter 6 onboarding

"I know, of course!" Ruoxue Yao said through gritted teeth.

"It's easy when you know each other. Ruoxue, this is a relative of mine. She's looking for a job, what do you think?" Cheng Ouyang said with a smile.

However, he noticed that neither of them was paying attention to him. They were just staring at each other.

"Ahem!" Cheng Ouyang cleared his throat lightly, and finally, Fei Shen withdrew his gaze. He couldn't help but sigh; the world was indeed small. Furthermore, this woman turned out to be the CEO of Tianxue International. This was going to be tricky!

Fei Shen swore that he had offended this woman to death. If Ruoxue Yao didn't hold a grudge against him, it could only mean that there was something wrong with her head. But no matter how he looked at it, Ruoxue Yao didn't seem like the type to have a screw loose.

"Ruoxue, is there some misunderstanding between you and Fei Shen?" Cheng Ouyang chuckled.

"It's not a misunderstanding, it's enmity," Ruoxue Yao said coldly.

"With or without her, with or without me," Fei Shen wanted to make a token objection, but he remembered that Ruoxue Yao was the CEO of Tianxue International and quickly dispelled that thought.

Cheng Ouyang looked at Fei Shen, blinked a few times, and couldn't understand how Fei Shen had managed to offend Ruoxue Yao so much in just one day in Zhonghai.

"Um, Yao President, I apologize for what happened yesterday!" Fei Shen said politely, "For the sake of Su Linqing, I'll let it slide this time." Fei Shen muttered to himself.

Ruoxue Yao looked at Fei Shen. "Not sincere."

"You little brat, don't push it!" Fei Shen snapped.

"Ahem!" Cheng Ouyang cleared his throat lightly.

Ruoxue Yao glared at Fei Shen, her beautiful eyes filled with anger.

"Uh, sorry, I couldn't control myself!" Fei Shen awkwardly chuckled.

"Hmph, for the sake of Uncle Ouyang, I won't hold it against you this time. You can work at Tianxue if you want, but you need to prove your abilities," Ruoxue Yao said seriously.

Cheng Ouyang's face-saving gesture made it difficult for her to refuse. Not to mention the personal relationship between their two families, even when she was just starting her career, Cheng Ouyang had given her a lot of help. She felt extremely grateful. Therefore, she had no reason to ruin their relationship and let Cheng Ouyang lose face because of this bastard.

"I..." Fei Shen scratched his head.

"I'm good at fighting!" Fei Shen finally blurted out.

Cheng Ouyang couldn't help but smile. However, he also knew that what Fei Shen said was true. This guy, when it came to fighting, few could compare to him.

Coincidentally, Ruoxue Yao was a girl, and there were many inconveniences. If Fei Shen served as her bodyguard, Cheng Ouyang would feel more at ease.

"Well, that works out perfectly. I need a bodyguard, but before that, I want to test your abilities," Ruoxue Yao said calmly.

If this guy had some real skills, she would keep him around to prevent him from causing trouble elsewhere. In Ruoxue Yao's eyes, this guy was a troublemaker.

If he didn't have the skills, then it would be his fault. If he didn't get a beating, Ruoxue Yao would feel uncomfortable!

If necessary, she could arrange for this bastard to have a relaxed job. Having a few idlers around was no big deal, especially with Cheng Ouyang's face.

"How are you going to test me?" Fei Shen asked Ruoxue Yao, blinking his eyes and looking worried.

Cheng Ouyang watched this scene, slapping his forehead. As astute as he was, he could see through Ruoxue Yao's intentions. However, he could only say that Ruoxue Yao had chosen the wrong person in Fei Shen.

Judging by Fei Shen's expression, he could tell that this guy was up to no good!

Cheng Ouyang was speechless. On one side was his niece, and on the other side was Fei Shen, the person who had saved his life. It seemed like he was in a difficult position!

"Follow me! You'll find out when we get there!" Ruoxue Yao said, looking at Fei Shen with a smile.

She hoped this guy had some personality and wouldn't be scared off as soon as he arrived!

Following Ruoxue Yao's graceful figure, Fei Shen obediently followed her to the gym. When the door opened, a dozen burly men, wearing tank tops, were working out on various fitness equipment.

Their dark, sweaty skin exuded a sense of strength and power, with bulging muscles that looked terrifying.

Fei Shen's gaze swept over the dozen or so people, and he shook his head. Two of them might barely pass muster, but the rest were just for show.

"If you want to be my bodyguard, you have to beat them!" Ruoxue Yao looked at Fei Shen and said.

It was clear what Ruoxue Yao meant. She didn't like this guy, and the phrase "beat them" had a double meaning.

"I'll do it! I'll do it!" The men clamored.

The opportunity to show their faces in front of the CEO was not something they wanted to miss.

"Uncle Ouyang, would you like to go outside with me?" Ruoxue Yao said.

Cheng Ouyang nodded lightly in response to Ruoxue Yao's suggestion. They both understood that neither wanted to put the other in an awkward position. The unspoken understanding was established.

Outside, in the lounge, Ruoxue Yao and Cheng Ouyang took their seats. Ruoxue Yao poured a cup of tea for Cheng Ouyang and said, "Uncle Ouyang, aren't you worried at all? Among them, seven are retired special forces, and the rest are also top-notch fighters."

Cheng Ouyang shrugged. "I'm just responsible for connecting him with you. If he doesn't have the ability to stay, there's nothing I can do. Ruoxue, do you think Uncle Ouyang is the type to be biased because of personal relationships?"

Ruoxue Yao smiled. "Uncle Ouyang, you're right. Regardless of the outcome, I'll provide him with a place at Tianxue International."

"Well, that's up to you. I have some business to attend to, so I'll take my leave," Cheng Ouyang said as he glanced at the time and got up.

"I'll see you off," Ruoxue Yao offered.

"No need! There's no need to be so formal with me. The results should be out soon," Cheng Ouyang replied calmly.

Ruoxue Yao smiled faintly in response. She was looking forward to seeing that guy in a miserable state.

She hoped that when the time came, he wouldn't hold back, or else it would be hard to ease his hatred!

As Ruoxue Yao and Cheng Ouyang left the lounge, the battle inside had already begun. A burly man took the lead.

"I'll take you on!" The burly man grinned.

Fei Shen shook his head. They really thought of him as a soft target.

The burly man reached out and grabbed Fei Shen's clothes, ready to slam him to the ground. Fei Shen found this move extremely clumsy; it was like child's play. Even a child's game of "house" seemed more skillful than this.

Fei Shen shook his hand, causing the ground to tremble, and the burly man's body made intimate contact with the floor.

It wasn't that he was weak; it was just that Fei Shen was too strong!

"Trash!" Fei Shen sneered.

The others in the room were filled with a mixture of anger and satisfaction. They didn't appreciate Fei Shen's arrogance.

This guy's words were too arrogant, and they naturally felt displeased.

As for the burly man, he was a bully who relied on his cousin being the head of the personnel department. When it came to doing things, he always wanted to be the first to volunteer. Now that he had suffered a loss, the others naturally took pleasure in his misfortune.

"I'm not just talking about him; I mean all of you are trash. Hurry up and make your move; I'm in a hurry!" Fei Shen said casually.

"Damn, he's so arrogant. Let's teach him a lesson!" The leader of the group shouted, gathering his companions.

Today, if they didn't let this guy leave in a sorry state, the security department would have no face left.

In a one-on-one fight, the leader could tell that Fei Shen was extraordinary. Since Fei Shen was so confident, they naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity.

However, they were careful not to underestimate Fei Shen. After all, his previous move had clearly shown that he was no ordinary person.

"Let's go!" The leader of the group called out, and they all attacked Fei Shen at once.

Five minutes later, Fei Shen clapped his hands and stopped the fight.

It wasn't that he wanted to provoke their anger, but he saw the shadow of soldiers in these people. With these individuals, you could be strong and ruthless, but you couldn't be weak.

Because soldiers only obeyed the strong and followed their beliefs.

However, among these people, it seemed that there was no sense of belief.

"Goodbye!" Fei Shen waved his hand.

"Damn, where did this guy come from? He's so strong!" someone whispered.

"Old Liu, you used to be part of the Dragon Blade, do they have someone this strong?" another person asked.

Old Liu didn't respond, but he looked at Fei Shen's back in shock. That silhouette seemed oddly familiar.

In the eyes of ordinary people, special forces were already considered invincible. But Old Liu knew that there were elites in a secret organization above the special forces. They had no names, only code names, and in every battle, they would lead from the front. Their figures could be seen in every corner of the battlefield.

And those people were extraordinarily powerful.

Fei Shen seemed to exude a similar aura.

Especially Fei Shen's back, which reminded Old Liu of a training exercise he had participated in seven years ago when he was still with the Dragon Blade. It was a mock battle against the elite members of a special department. The Dragon Blade had a full team, while the other side only had three people. In a city battle, they were utterly defeated. No one had seen the faces of those three opponents, but they remembered that their backs were imposing as mountains.

As Old Liu was lost in thought, Fei Shen had already left.

The former soldiers from the special forces had some skill, but the gap between them and Fei Shen was too vast. They were not even on the same level. Fei Shen's experiences were beyond their imagination, and the events that required the intervention of special forces were things Fei Shen and his team would consider beneath them.

"Hey, beauty, I've handled it!" Fei Shen said, looking at Ruoxue Yao standing outside, a smirk on his face.

"What?" Seeing that this guy had come out unscathed, Ruoxue Yao realized something was amiss. Now, hearing Fei Shen's words, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. She hadn't expected this guy to be so powerful.

Old Liu and his group emerged from the training room, each of them wearing a shocked expression.

"Hey, Old Liu, you used to be a part of the Dragon Blade, do they have someone this powerful?" one of the men asked.

Old Liu remained silent, his gaze fixed on Fei Shen's back. He had a nagging feeling that he had seen this before.

In the eyes of regular people, special forces were already considered formidable, but Old Liu knew there was a level above them, the elite members of a secretive organization. They had no names, only code names, and in every battle, they took the lead. You could find their presence in every corner of the battlefield. Those people were incredibly powerful.

Fei Shen seemed to possess that same aura.

In particular, Fei Shen's back reminded Old Liu of a training exercise he had taken part in seven years ago when he was still in the Dragon Blade. It was a mock battle against elite members of a special department. The Dragon Blade had a full team, while the opposing side had only three people. In a city battle, they were utterly defeated.

The former soldiers from the special forces had some skill, but the gap between them and Fei Shen was immense. They were not even on the same level. Fei Shen's experiences were beyond their imagination, and the events that required the intervention of special forces were considered trivial by Fei Shen's standards.

"Hey, beauty, I've taken care of it!" Fei Shen looked at Ruoxue Yao and smirked.

"What?" Realizing that this guy had come out unscathed, Ruoxue Yao sensed that something was off. Hearing Fei Shen's words, she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. She hadn't expected this guy to be so powerful.

Old Liu and his group emerged from the training room, each of them wearing a shocked expression.

"Hey, Old Liu, you used to be part of the Dragon Blade, have you ever encountered someone this strong?" one of the men asked.

Old Liu remained silent, his gaze fixed on Fei Shen's back. He had a nagging feeling that he had seen this before.

In the eyes of ordinary people, special forces were already considered invincible, but Old Liu knew that there were elites in a secret organization above the special forces.

Old Liu and his group emerged from the training room, each of them wearing a shocked expression.

"Alright, Fei Shen, you are now officially a member of Tianxue International!" Ruoxue Yao declared firmly. She had no intention of blaming Old Liu and his team; this guy had shown more capability than she had expected. It was no wonder that Ouyang Cheng was so confident in him.

"Oh, by the way, where's Ouyang Cheng?" Fei Shen asked.

"He left earlier. Now, go to the HR department to complete your onboarding procedures. Your position will be in the security department," Ruoxue Yao replied, her tone casual.

"Uh, Miss, where is the HR department?" Fei Shen asked as Ruoxue Yao turned to leave.

"Call me CEO!" Ruoxue Yao said with irritation in her voice. "Go out, turn left! There are signs, so don't tell me you can't read!"

With those words, Ruoxue Yao walked away, leaving Fei Shen somewhat bewildered. This guy was certainly getting on her nerves!
