?Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Shi Youjin Causes Trouble Chapter 166: Chapter 166 Shi Youjin Causes Trouble Ye Chuyi immediately vetoed, “No need, you know he has a criminal record. Jungle cannot accept such a security guard. Everything must adhere to the rules and regulations, no need to favor me.”

“Alright, I understand. I’m about to go on a business trip and I’ll be back in three days.”

Ye Chuyi nodded, “Okay, good, I hope everything goes smoothly for you.”

Cong Ningyuan smiled, then left her office.

However, as he was leaving by car, Shi Youjin stopped him at the company’s main entrance.

“President Cong!”

Shi Youjin stood in front of the car, shouting loudly, “I am Chuyi’s father, I beg you, for Chuyi’s sake, let me stay on as a security guard!”

From her office, Ye Chuyi suddenly heard his voice, hurried to the window, and then saw Shi Youjin blocking the car.

Security guards approached to pull him away, but he threw himself onto the hood of Cong Ningyuan’s car and refused to come down.

“President Cong, I know this is a trivial matter for you. My daughter has been with you for so long; isn’t it fair for you to bend the rules a little for me? As a boss, why be so petty? If it really comes down to it, I’ll have my daughter spend a few more nights with you!”

Ye Chuyi felt a wave of darkness before her eyes when she heard this, and she called for her assistant, “Su Shan, immediately have security throw him out! If he keeps spouting nonsense like this, he’ll ruin the reputation of the company!”

Su Shan responded and quickly called the security department.

Soon, five or six security guards rushed out and lifted Shi Youjin off the car hood.

Only then could Cong Ningyuan’s car leave.

Shi Youjin, held firmly down, was still yelling, “Xiaoyi, come out! Dad is here to see you! They are bullying Dad, come help me! Lin Chuyi!”

Ye Chuyi’s expression was as cold as ice. She quickly went downstairs and approached Shi Youjin, “Do you really have such a strong desire to ruin me?”

When Shi Youjin saw her, he complained, “You were indeed in the company, why didn’t you come out to help me earlier? Hurry up and tell them to let me go, my arm is twisted!”

To avoid making a scene outside, Ye Chuyi had security bring him into the company’s reception room.

After security brought him in, they left, leaving only Ye Chuyi and Shi Youjin in the room.

Seeing her stern face, Shi Youjin hurriedly said, “Xiaoyi, don’t blame Dad. Dad was really at his wit’s end and had no choice! I really need a job; I need to earn money! If you had agreed to let me be a security guard sooner, I wouldn’t have stopped President Cong’s car.”

“So, is this my fault now?”

“No, that’s not what I mean. Don’t overthink it. I just want to be a security guard, I’m not asking to be a manager or anything. Can’t you fulfill even such a small request?”

Ye Chuyi looked at his face, devoid of any guilt, and suddenly felt that, maybe, she had never really understood Shi Youjin. She had created an image of a good father in her head but in reality, he was far from it.

Still, she should find him a job, or else he would be too idle and likely cause trouble for her.

“If you want to be a security guard, that’s fine, but not at Jungle. The criteria for hiring security are very strict at Jungle. I’ll refer you to a less strict company where you could work as a security guard. It will be more relaxed than here, and the pay will be better.”

“That…”

Shi Youjin was reluctant, “I think Jungle is quite good. Besides, don’t you also work at Jungle? If I were to work here, I could look after you more, don’t you think?”

“Look after me? Is your idea of looking after me causing a public scene by stopping our CEO’s car and proclaiming that he and I have an illicit relationship? I can’t handle that kind of care; you would disgrace me.”

“I spoke out of turn in a moment of desperation, don’t take it to heart. Xiaoyi, your dad really wants to help you, to take care of you. I’ve let you down for over a decade in prison, and I really want to make up for it. Just give Dad a chance!”

Ye Chuyi looked at him for a while, “Since you don’t want the more relaxed, better-paid security job and insist on working at Jungle, then I’ll satisfy your request.”
