The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard
Chapter 119

Chapter 119: Chapter 119

Mo Yan always liked this sentence from "game theory": "In the world of human life, all people and objects are engaged in an equivalent exchange at all times, and the only condition for exchange is the corresponding sufficient value."

The Lei family, which has been entrenched in Beiping for nearly a hundred years, has a longer family history than the nation’s history of Huaxia. Lei Bao is the only male of this family, and there has always been news in the circle that Lei Bao is very likely to join the troops of a central leader. He is considered the entire hope for the future of the Lei family. Ye Tian should not have messed with anyone else, but why did he mess with him?

Putting down the book in his hand, he took a sip of red wine, but the worry in his heart deepened, the scales of interests in his mind swayed left and right, is it worth it? Just for one person, is it necessary?

This equivalent exchange really gave Mo Yan some palpitations.

Worried that Lei Bao might have other friends and confidants in Huaizhou City, Ye Tian and others left in the early morning the next day, with Mo Yan, in a car driven by someone named Uncle Nine.

They didn’t even have time to say goodbye to the land; the white Buick disappeared into the grey dawn. Having stayed in Huaizhou City for less than a month, Ye Tian was forced by an outsider to flee at dawn. Including Shen Jingwei’s departure, it could be considered as both family and personal ruin.

"Feeling sentimental?" Zhang Houtu, this kid gets carsick, had his eyes closed all along the way, sitting upright, his huge frame almost touching the ceiling of the car.

Ye Tian took a look at him and laughed, "Alright, Brother Tu, even in this condition, you’re hardly better off than me. Save the lecturing for after we stop."

Zhang Houtu felt awkwardly embarrassed, reddening "Do what you can, and leave the rest to fate."

The carriage fell silent, gradually filled with the smell of the plastic interiors, Mo Yan’s perfume, and Pig Hu’s greasy hair scent. The car entered Beiping City, but the sight of tall buildings did not give Ye Tian a sense of rebirth. Instead, his burden felt even heavier.

This was not a trip, it was risking our lives for someone else.

Mo Yan got off midway, and the driver, Uncle Nine, continued to take Ye Tian and three others to a villa complex by Fengyue Lake in Huairou. As they walked, Uncle Nine explained, but Ye Tian listened in a confused haze until Pig Hu had a sudden realization, "Did you just... mean security?"

The balding Uncle Nine with white hair turned to glance at Pig Hu, then indifferently nodded, "Something like that."

Ye Tian and Pig Hu exchanged a glance, both wearing bitter smiles, but then they got over it. A bar bouncer is also a guard, after all, it’s not that much different.

The car stopped at the very inside of the complex, a parking shed area with bicycles and cars, mostly inexpensive vans.

"Get out. From now on, you’ll be working here. The lady instructed that if there are any troubles, call this number." Uncle Nine turned around, his arm on the back of the chair, handing over a handwritten note.

Pig Hu, more anxious than Ye Tian, snatched it quickly. It was a landline number, "This isn’t some kind of emergency number, is it?"

"Do you recognize it?"

"I don’t." Pig Hu’s head shook like a bobble-head, "It just looks... pretty impressive."

Ye Tian and Uncle Nine gave him a simultaneous disdainful glance.

Zhang Houtu got off the Buick before it completely stopped, his face pale and looking quite uncomfortable. A tall man in a Zhongshan suit stood in the courtyard, his unspoken deterrence spreading around, making several people pushing carts unconsciously ride around him, afraid to provoke a robber.

"Hey, you’re scaring them." Pig Hu, carrying his luggage, got out of the car and patted Zhang Houtu’s arm, wanting to pat his shoulder but couldn’t reach, "Quickly help the old uncle down."

The Buick business van is really generous, not just in quality but space too; it was more than enough to even accommodate Liu Zhongshi’s hospital bed, which Zhang Houtu lifted out effortlessly, without a change of facial expression or a skipped heartbeat. Furthermore, the living quarters for the four of them were not far from the gate where they could keep an eye on the entrance during their breaks, while the actual workplace was just a small gazebo beside the gate.

"Why did you bring us here? Why didn’t you drop us off at the gate?"

Uncle Nine, who had been in the car the entire time, looked at Pig Hu leaning in through the window and said, "This was ordered by the young mistress. I just follow orders."

"Hey, I have to say your attitude as a driver is really something..."

"Is this villa district owned by you all?" Zhang Houtu interjected.

Uncle Nine shook his head, "They’re hiring security here. Initially, I arranged this gig for my grand nephews and nieces, but then they didn’t want to do it anymore, so we pulled you guys in to fill the spots. Stop being picky here; in a little while, the property management will interview you, and it’s another matter whether they want to hire you."

After finishing his words, the Buick business van drove off, leaving three bewildered men and Liu Zhongshi lying on the bed behind.

"How do you feel, old uncle?" Zhang Houtu bent down and asked next to Liu Zhongshi’s ear.

Liu Zhongshi couldn’t speak, but his spirits were much improved, as he was someone who had trained in martial arts for years and had better recuperative abilities than others.

"Uh, that’s good. Ye Tian, let’s go."

"Where to? The interview?" Pig Hu squatting on a bag filled with medicinal herbs said.

"No need for that, they came to us themselves."

Following Ye Tian’s gaze, Zhang Houtu and Pig Hu also looked forward, seeing two men in security uniforms walking toward them with batons, swaggering arrogantly. As they walked, they pointed their batons at them and shouted, "You, what are you all doing here! Who let you in! What are you looking at, believe it or not, I’ll hit you!"

Ye Tian was speechless. These were the community guards, and the on-duty gatekeeper hadn’t noticed the car that just drove in?

Perhaps it was because Ye Tian and those with him were too shabbily dressed, they looked like country folk entering the city, which made the guards even more brazen.

Under higher material wealth, the lower class often develop a disdainful mentality that bullies the weak and fears the strong. These people, who see others driving luxury cars and living in mansions every day, display their worst attitudes instantly when encountering those who seem inferior to them.

"We are here for the security job," Ye Tian replied calmly to the two arrogant guards.

The two guards, one fat and one thin, looked at each other and then sized up the three men and the old man lying on the hospital bed. The fat guard asked, "Have you served in the military?"

Ye Tian shook his head.

"Then we can’t hire you."

"Why?"

The thin guard stepped forward and scolded, "What do you mean why? If I say no, it’s no!"
