The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard
Chapter 182

Chapter 182: Chapter 182

Seeing Li Jing standing at the doorway without speaking, Pig Hu nudged himself closer to Zhang Kai to avoid getting into a desperate fight with him later.

"Jingjing, I’m not trying to lecture you, but no one wants to live in a small room for their whole life. If you really care about her, then you shouldn’t be thinking about childish thoughts such as ’waiting for her to leave before I go out.’ You have to..."

Li Jing made a slight move, frightening Pig Hu into silence. However, Li Jing simply turned around and opened the door, seemingly too lazy to pay any more attention to these two.

"Don’t you want to find the Ziwei Soft Sword of the Li family?"

Li Jing paused, stopping in front of the security door, and the hand on the doorknob also stopped turning.

Seeing a chance, Pig Hu was overjoyed inside, "Jingjing, rest assured, the person I’ve encountered this time is someone I have good faith in. I invited you to fulfill a favor for him. Of course, if you don’t like him after meeting, you can leave at any time, and I guarantee I won’t say a word."

"Talk about the sword."

You’re straightforward. Pig Hu sneered inwardly but kept a flattering smile on his face, "As long as you go with me, I guarantee that I’ll bring back your Li family’s Ziwei Soft Sword in one piece."

The autumn cold could not be felt, but once the wind blew, that chill hitting the skin caused a dense rash of goosebumps to rise all over the body.

After a long while, Li Jing finally looked at Pig Hu indifferently, "Hu Xiaoye, if I find even the slightest trickery, you’ll be the first one I butcher."

Zhang Kai was once again recklessly rushing forward, but was stopped by Pig Hu, who was now bending over with a subservient smile, "Fair enough, fair enough, if I deceive you, whatever happens is fine, hehehehe."

His old face, riddled with wrinkles, scrunched together because of that obsequious laugh, resembling an anus’s chrysanthemum, sickening to look at. It wasn’t until Li Jing went inside that Pig Hu finally restrained his smile, wiped the sweat off his forehead, and did not forget to ridicule Zhang Kai next to him, "Someone who can effortlessly spar eight hundred moves with Old Mr. Jia of the Northern Commerce Association, and you think you’re something? Screw off, don’t interfere with my business, you good-for-nothing!"

"Ruoshui, your illness can be cured, pack your things, we are leaving today."

"Brother, where are we going?"

The rented room was simple and crude. She had heard the conversation between her brother and those two men, but she still had to pretend to be ignorant and ask. This was the unspoken understanding the siblings had maintained for many years; the sister never interfered with the brother’s affairs.

One person is the other’s safe house.

Li Jing looked at his well-behaved sister and smiled, "Haven’t you always wanted to visit the Capital? This time we’ll go to a big hospital in the Capital, and also let you see the magnificent landscapes of our country."

His sister sat quietly on the edge of the bed, swinging her legs and watching her brother pack things one by one, this brother with his handsome face and gentle nature, taking care of her amidst all the trivialities of household tasks, this strange brother!

"Should we bring Little Yellow?"

"Mhm."

""

Li Jing stuffed a yellow plush monkey into the backpack and then picked up a white hair clip. After thinking for a moment, he placed it into the bag too. His younger sister’s hair had been falling out severely, and in a few more days, they probably wouldn’t need it anymore.

Busy with all sorts of preparations, it took quite a while to get the house in order—a task which would make Pig Hu rack his brains out to realize that the Sword God Li Jing was actually also proficient in managing a household.

"The plane departs at one in the afternoon, but first we have to take a train to Nanjing, and then head to the airport."

"I’ll follow your lead, but I need a quiet environment."

"Don’t worry, it’s all arranged. Let’s go."

Naturally, the manual labor of moving things fell onto Zhang Kai. In any case, this guy was a wolf in sheep’s clothing, packed with strength. Even if he didn’t have the strength, he had to summon it—after all, it was Hu Xiaoye who gave the order.

Before leaving, Ye Tian had instructed that, whether they successfully hired help or not, they must treat people with respect. Money wasn’t an issue; they could spend as much as needed from the card, but it was crucial to hire the genuine person. Hu Xiaoye was quite liberal with spending. Since Li Ruoshui’s body couldn’t withstand the strain, Pig Hu booked a whole soft sleeper carriage. The vast carriage was empty except for the Li siblings, while Pig Hu and Zhang Kai sat in the regular hard seat carriage, not disturbing the siblings.

Although the money wasn’t his own, Pig Hu had his own plans in mind. He was thinking on behalf of Ye Tian— that girl from the Mo Family clearly wasn’t easy to deal with. After saving Ye Tian, she just dropped these people off here and didn’t bother about them anymore. Who knows what she was thinking? The money belonged to someone else—spend what needs to be spent, but don’t touch what shouldn’t be spent.

Debts to others always need to be repaid; the less you owe, the less you have to pay back.

After half a month of hassles, Ye Tian was very curious to see who Pig Hu had brought back. When Tang Su hurried over, it was just one o’clock—the exact time the plane took off. Xu Qingyang followed by Ye Tian’s side, and after waiting for more than two hours, they finally saw several people coming out. Ye Tian approached to meet them.

Zhuge Liang had three visits to the thatched cottage; waiting for two hours was no big deal.

Pig Hu and his companion were gasping for air, while Li Jing and his sister looked at ease. It was evident how highly Pig Hu valued these two individuals.

Li Jing’s situation had been shared with Ye Tian over a phone call by Pig Hu, so he had a pretty good impression of this brother who acted both as a father and a mother to his sister.

When the two met for the first time, they simply nodded at each other. Ye Tian was the first to nod—it seemed a bit awkward. Li Jing also nodded, then turned his head away. Ye Tian couldn’t help but smile wryly inside—did the more badass someone was, the more of a personality they had?

"I’ve already made arrangements with the hospital. It’s in Tianhe, ranked number one in the country. Furthermore, I’ve gotten a detailed understanding of your sister’s condition. The treatment plan will be available soon."

Li Jing gave him a look and nodded, uttering a sound of acknowledgment.

He didn’t find anything special about this guy Pig Hu kept talking about, apart from being able to tell that he was skilled in martial arts. There was no so-called kingly aura, no sign of nobility—it was all just for show. However, the man standing not too far away did seem somewhat interesting.

Li Jing glanced at Xu Qingyang from a distance, silently memorizing this person’s facial features.

"Old Hu, isn’t there another brother here?"

Ye smiled at Zhang Kai, only to receive an icy stare in return, which made Ye sigh internally—badass indeed. Unexpectedly, just as Zhang Kai was about to sneer, Pig Hu kicked him, "Motherf**ker! When someone is truly badass, they’re badass for a reason. Why are you acting tough? You’re getting insolent, thinking you’re the man just because you’ve got that thing in your pants, damn it!"
