Chapter 499 A Place to Settle
Having known Wang Chao and Shen Bing for so long, this was the first time Wang Chao heard Shen Bing speak so softly and coquettishly.
In his impression, Shen Bing had always been a strong and independent woman. Even when she was in danger and afraid, she had never been so coquettish before.
This feeling was truly strange!
A muscular man acting shy, a powerful woman being coquettish—the stark contrast was overwhelming!
"Brother Wang, can you please?" Shen Bing continued to coquettishly plead.
Wang Chao felt a tingling sensation in his ears and a tickling feeling. Images of Shen Bing's assertiveness mixed with a cute expression flashed through his mind.
Facing this kind of attack, he couldn't resist and could only soften his heart and say, "Okay, after work, I'll accompany you."
"Alright, it's a deal. I'll go busy myself now."
Shen Bing's expression brightened upon hearing these words, and her voice changed from soft and sweet to resolute and decisive. It was as if she was afraid that Wang Chao would change his mind, and she promptly hung up the phone.
Wang Chao stared at the busy tone in his phone, his eyes filled with astonishment.
Did this change happen too quickly?
He smiled bitterly and put away his phone, then turned to Ren Zhenguo and the others, saying, "Brother Ren, it's settled. After we arrive at the company, I'll take you to complete the employment procedures and arrange your dormitories."
"Mr. Wang, we are truly grateful to you," Ren Zhenguo and the others expressed their gratitude repeatedly.
They exchanged glances and saw the joy and anticipation in each other's eyes.
After submitting their resignations and leaving the military headquarters, they had become unemployed drifters, experiencing hardships and struggling to make ends meet. They didn't even have a place to settle.
Now, they had finally found another place to belong to. How could they not be excited?
Thirty minutes later, they arrived at Danfeng Group.
Under Wang Chao's guidance, they smoothly completed the employment procedures and were assigned to the security guards' dormitory.
They were filled with excitement as they looked at the clean and spacious dormitory, the air conditioning, the refrigerator, and the separate bathrooms.
These conditions were so much better than when they were on the battlefield or at the military headquarters!
"For now, this is how our security guards' dormitory looks. If you have any other requests, feel free to let me know," Wang Chao said.
"No, no, no need. We don't have any more requests," Ren Zhenguo quickly replied.
After experiencing so much hardship and instability, they finally had a place to settle.
"Director Wang, I have one more request," Old Five suddenly spoke up.
"Old Five!" Ren Zhenguo hastily reprimanded.
Wang Chao had already helped them so much, how could Old Five still have the audacity to make more requests? Wasn't that taking advantage of the situation?
If it provoked Wang Chao's displeasure and he kicked them out, they would once again be left without a place to settle.
"Brother Ren, it's alright."
Wang Chao smiled slightly and said to Old Five, "As the head of the security department, it's my responsibility to take care of everything for you. If you have any requests within my capabilities, feel free to ask."
"As long as it's within my means, I will fulfill your requests."
"Alright, then I'll make a request. Director Wang, can you arrange two sets of clean clothes for the five of us? We're all wearing tattered clothes," Old Five's expression brightened, immediately making his request.
Ren Zhenguo relaxed when he heard Old Five's words. As long as the request wasn't too excessive, he didn't mind.
"You don't need to make that request."
Wang Chao smiled and said, "Before you arrived, I had already arranged for someone to purchase daily necessities for you. They should be delivered soon."
As he finished speaking, Chen Yong pushed a small cart into the room.
The cart was filled with various daily necessities—underwear, clothes, toothbrushes, buckets, face towels, blankets, shower gel, shampoo, and more. Everything they needed was there.
"Boss, the items have arrived. Where should I put them?" Chen Yong asked.
Wang Chao looked at Ren Zhenguo and said, "Brother Ren, each of you will receive a set."
"Thank you so much."
Old Five was overjoyed and immediately walked over, picking up a set of clothes for himself and selecting a bed to put his belongings down. He touched the new security uniform and the soft blanket, feeling a myriad of emotions.
Ren Zhenguo and the others felt the same. Holding the blankets and clothes, they seemed somewhat dazed.
During their time in the military headquarters, they were targeted by Sheng Anhe and didn't even have a decent blanket.
Now that they were out in the civilian world and working as security guards, their treatment was unexpectedly good.
Wang Chao was courteous and considerate, taking care of them in every aspect and allowing them to experience the long-lost warmth.
The five of them quickly tidied up their beds and neatly folded the blankets, forming perfect squares with sharp edges.
Chen Yong looked at the flawless blankets and was slightly stunned. "Boss, are they retired soldiers?"
The blankets were folded even more neatly than when he was in the military. They're extremely tidy!
"You guessed right," Wang Chao replied.
At that moment, Old Five stood up again and asked, "Boss, can our prosthetics be exposed to water? Can we wear them while bathing?"
Ren Zhenguo and the others also looked over, as they were concerned about this issue as well.
"Your bionic eye is designed for long-term wear, and it needs to be replaced every fifteen years. It has a waterproof function, so there's no need to worry," Wang Chao explained.
He paused and looked at Ren Zhenguo and the others, saying, "However, your bionic limbs are a bit more complicated. While the materials are waterproof, prolonged exposure to water may cause malfunctions."
"So, if you wear them while bathing, the bathing time should not exceed ten minutes, otherwise, there may be malfunctions."
Old Two, Old Five, and the others breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's fine then."
"Director Wang, we'll go take a shower first."
After saying that, they picked up their change of clothes and rushed into the bathroom to take a shower.
Ren Zhenguo approached Wang Chao, his expression serious, and said, "Mr. Wang, by taking us in like this, I'm worried that it will cause avoidable trouble."
"Are you referring to the possibility of retaliation from the Sheng Anhe family?" Wang Chao asked.
Ren Zhenguo nodded.
Based on his understanding of Sheng Anhe, he knew that Sheng Anhe wouldn't just let things go.
If Sheng Anhe found out that the five of them were in this company, he would definitely try various ways to sanction and retaliate against the company.
The Sheng Family was a powerful clan under Sikong Yun, an absolute behemoth. Dealing with a mere private enterprise would be a piece of cake for them.
"Do not worry, everything will be fine," Zhou Xinghe said.
Although the Sheng Family was strong, he was not someone easy to provoke.
Adaptability was key!
Even if Sheng Anhe personally came or if Sikong Yun himself arrived, as long as he revealed his identity as the commander of the Dark Night Vanguard, Sikong Yun would not dare to do anything to them.
The military headquarters, the base of the Silver Armor Corps.
Sheng Anhe rushed back in a disheveled manner and barged into the military hospital, his voice hoarse as he shouted, "Doctor, come quickly!"
Just as he finished speaking, he collapsed to the ground and fell unconscious.
Seeing him covered in blood, all the doctors were frightened and rushed over to rescue him, stitching up his severed arm.
The director of the military hospital immediately informed Sheng Anhe's father, Sheng Minghui, about the situation.
Upon hearing the news, Sheng Minghui rushed to the scene.
He was around fifty years old, with a dignified appearance and a handsome figure. His eyes were cold as ice.
As the actual controller of the Silver Armor Corps, a Nine Stars War-God level expert, he held a high position. Except for Sikong Yun, he had control over everyone else. He was a figure superior to ten thousand others.
After seeing Sheng Anhe's miserable state, his eyes became even colder, and an icy killing intent emanated from him as he uttered each word, "Who did this?"
