Beauty and the Bodyguard

Ruin Him

"That's true. You two rest then. Li Cihua, tell me- what should our next step be?" Qibing asked.

"Hm…" Cihua sank into his thoughts, "We should choose Chu Pengzhan's weakest spot and deal him a critical hit. Then we'd quickly be able to see Pengzhan's bottom line and also if Lin Yi has recovered."

"Fuck, if only we could deal with them together, I'm really getting pissed off!" Qibing had been in a terrible mood recently- he had both his legs broken, and had to stay in bed all day after all.

"Pengzhan Industries has a lot of businesses. We should target one that's less established and protected, but also the easiest one to cause problems with!" Cihua started murmuring.

Master Bing didn't interrupt- after all, he wasn't as knowledgeable as Cihua when it came to Pengzhan Industries. He didn't even know what businesses they had, so he decided to just wait for Cihu to contribute ideas.

"Su Jiaonang, come in!" Cihua said after making no progress by himself.

But Jiaonang too, wasn't that much of a useful person either- if it came to thinking up dirty tricks even Cihua had more proficiency!

The two discussed for a long time to no avail, pissing Qibing off.

"You two pieces of trash! Can't you even do something so simple? Keep thinking! Are you telling me I can't even deal with a Chu Pengzhan now?!"

"Calm down, Master Bing!" Jiaonang said carefully, "Cihua Bro, maybe we could ask Jin Gubang and Zhong Fabai to come here? Jin Gubang used to belong to Pengzhan Industries, so he knows more than we do! Zhong Fabai's a shady person, too- it'll be easier with more people! What do you think, Master Bing?"

"That works- Li Cihua, hurry up and call the two of them and get them here!" Master Bing said without even thinking about it. He didn't want to wait one second longer- Lin Yi had to die as soon as possible!

Jin Gubang and Zhong Fabai immediately rushed to the place upon receiving Master Bing's summons. They knew of what Lin Yi had done to Uncle Zhu and Master Bing, but didn't think the kid would be alive for much longer.

This was Master Bing they were talking about- there was no way Lin Yi would live after breaking the legs of someone like that.

And so both of them knew that their guess was right when Cihua told them of their plan to go against Lin Yi and Pengzhan Industries.

"Dealing with Chu Pengzhan? I have plenty of methods!" Gubang said immediately. "If we're talking about something that'd attract the media's attention and ruin Pengzhan Industries' name, we can start with the school!"

"The school? Songshan's Fourth School?" Cihua paused.

"Correct, that high school!" Gubang said, "Right now, anything slightly bad that would happen to students in school would become big news! The media would grab on to it, and the public would start attacking as well, calling Chu Pengzhan a black-hearted businessmen who sacrifices the students for profit! Depending on what this thing is, it's a granted that it'll be troublesome. What we need to do is cause an accident that they can't recover from!"

"That's right!" Cihua's eyes lit up at what Gubang said. If they were to do something to Pengzhan's school and let something horible happen, the parents would be furious- it'd be a huge headache for Pengzhan!

But what could they do to cause such a problem?

"Continue, tell us what we should do!" Qibing nodded with praise, thinking that it wasn't unwise to have Gubang as a follower.

"Naturally, causing problems for the school would mean causing problems to the students in there!" Gubang said, "Make some structures collapse and crush some students, or getting some gangsters to go to the school to cut a few students up, or having a monstrous teacher doing terrible things to their students… These are all things that would destroy the school's reputation!"

"But, aren't these things a bit too unpractical?" Qibing frowned, "Collapsing structures? Are you thinking of doing what Lin Yi did, directly destroying the building? Gangsters? Do we bring our own? That'd lead trouble back to us! And monstrous teachers- that's basically impossible, nobody would risk their life in that way, doesn't matter how much money you pay them!"

"I…" Gubang chuckled dryly, feeling a bit awkward. "I was just giving some examples, we'll still need to discuss the details!"

"Master Bing, I understand that this Mister Yaowang is a master at healing, but isn't he well versed in poisoning as well..?" The silent Fabai said all of a sudden.

"Poison? Naturally- Yaowang's an expert in various medicine practices. Poisoning is child's play," Qibing nodded.

"Hm… Master Bing, perhaps we can do just that? Students getting food poisoning is a big topic," Fabai said, "Food poisoning, after all, can be said to be a result of incompetent school regulation, and can even be twisted into laying blame to Pengzhan Industries' black-hearted approach, that they sell expired junk food to students, and that was what caused the food poisoning! Maybe the food might even get to Lin Yi or Chu Mengyao if we're lucky!"

"Perfect! Very good, Old Zhong, very good indeed!" Qibing started praising him upon hearing the idea, "It's such a grand idea- we'll go with just that! Yaowang, qucikly, come up with a poison and poison Shongshan's Fourth School's cafeteria!"

(I don't know why it's 'Songshan's Fourth School' in the raws instead of 'Songshan's First School' all of a sudden. Is it a different school that Pengzhan owns? Did the author change the name? For now I'll just follow the original.)

"Making the poison will be simple, but who'll be the one to poison the food? Plus, would we be discovered after the poisoning? That's the concern here!" Yaowang naturally had no problems with poison crafting, but that wasn't what he was worried about.

"That is a problem. Right, Old Zhong- isn't your son in that school? Why don't we let him poson the food!" Qibing said as he looked at Fabai.

"Huh?" Fabai paused, shocked. How could he give such a task to his own son? It would be prisonfor him if things went south! He only had one son, who was even left with only one kidney! He couldn't let him take that risk! "Master Bing, that's… Letting my son carry this out is…"

"What, you're not willing?" Master Bing frowned, "Worried that I wouldn't compensate you?"

"No, it's not that…" Fabai said, frightened that Master Bing was starting to get pissed off, "It's just that if things were to go wrong and the cops get involved.."
