Chapter 913 - Bodyguard

At this moment in Dynasty International, two people sat inside a uniquely designed private room. One appeared to be an ordinary, kindly old man, while the other was a middle-aged man with a distinct presence, exuding an aura of a person in authority.

"Old Brother Jun, isn’t it a bit too much to ask your little apprentice to get here from the business street in just half an hour?"

The South Central man said with a smile, exuding the presence of someone in power with every gesture.

"Hehe, Young Brother Shen, for him, half an hour is not a big deal. But, Young Brother Shen, I have to tell you beforehand, whether my apprentice will help or not is up in the air. He’s got a very lazy personality. His parents’ company lets him do whatever he wants, and he’s always hands-off. Being your darling daughter’s bodyguard might be a bit tough!"

"Well, that’s why I came to you. I’ve always heard that your principal apprentice is extremely capable and highly skilled. I really didn’t have a choice. This is a special situation, so I hope you can help out, and we can talk about the compensation later!"

The middle-aged man said earnestly.

"Hehe, if it’s about money, that’s easy to solve. Let’s talk about it when that kid gets here. I’ll tell you more then, but Young Brother Shen, what’s going on with you? I told you early on to cultivate with me, but you insisted on the official path. How uninteresting!"

The Military God said, raising his wine glass and drinking it gracefully. The middle-aged man gave a bitter smile and then said.

"Brother Jun, I would also like the life of leisure, but if everyone were that way, wouldn’t the world be chaotic? Everyone has their own aspirations, so..."

"Hehe, you’re right. I’m not as noble as you. Oh, that little girl of yours is still in school, right? If that rascal Su Xuan agrees, can he even protect her?"

The Military God said somewhat dejectedly.

"No need to worry. If your little apprentice is willing to help, I can arrange for him to enter the school, which provides better cover!"

The middle-aged man said, while the Military God pursed his lips, thinking that if this guy really goes to school, it’s likely to get lively there.

"Geez, Master, you really know how to enjoy life, staying in the top suite of Heavenly Gate, it’s really expensive!"

Suddenly, a lazy voice sounded. When he heard this voice, the middle-aged man’s heart skipped a beat, thinking it was so quick. He checked the time; it had been less than half an hour, and he already went from the business street to Dynasty International.

It’s important to know that the road there is in bad condition and often clogged with traffic. Normally driving would take at least an hour.

"Hehe, Su Xuan, come, sit down. You’re on time, and because of that, this meal won’t be on you!"

The Military God said with a mischievous smile, to which Su Xuan jokingly replied.

"Wow, could it be that today’s the day Master, the stingy old miser, is actually paying for my meal?"

Su Xuan said, looking excited. The Military God rolled his eyes at him, saying.

"Look at you, acting as if I’m never generous. I am always generous, right? But today someone else is treating us. Let me introduce you, this is Shen Feiyun, the Mayor of Coast City."

The Military God said smilingly, and Su Xuan, looking at Shen Feiyun, was somewhat surprised. When he first came in, he sensed that Shen Feiyun was no ordinary person, exuding an aura of a person in power. To think he was the mayor. Su Xuan thought Old Man really is something, even knowing the mayor, truly hidden depths.

"Young man, you are indeed dignified and extraordinarily handsome!"

Shen Feiyun proactively extended his hand to shake hands with Su Xuan. Su Xuan smiled lightly and said.

"Uncle Shen overpraises me. Master, you really have the nerve to invite your apprentice for a meal and have someone else foot the bill."

Su Xuan said mischievously, and Shen Feiyun couldn’t help but chuckle. Looking at Su Xuan, his first impression was that this guy is quite the carefree soul, full of character. Such a person might be just right to protect his daughter.

"Hehe, he’s got money! He’s in charge of all of Coast City. If we don’t eat from him, who else would we? Right?"

The Military God looked at Shen Feiyun, and Shen Feiyun was speechless inside, thinking he’s not a corrupt official, why did it sound like he was made of money? Does he really think I’m some kind of tycoon?

As the drinking and dining went on, the Military God smiled and looked at Su Xuan, about to speak when Su Xuan quickly said.

"Master, please don’t say anything. Whenever I see you with that sly smile, I feel like there’s something bad in the works. Seems like today might be a trap!"

"You’re kidding! How could you think of your master, shining as the sun and moon, surviving with the heaven and earth, admired by all in the mortal world, blossoming flowers admiring me, in such a way? My smile is riveting and enchanting, okay!"

The Military God said self-indulgently, and Su Xuan had the impulse to gag before he said.

"Master, please stop being so narcissistic, I can’t handle it!"

"Pfft..."

And with that, Shen Feiyun couldn’t help but laugh, thinking these two are really something.

"Alright, kid, let’s get to the point. Your Uncle Shen wants to ask you for a favor. He wants you to be his daughter’s bodyguard. The time could be as long as a year or as short as six months. What do you say, are you in?"

The Military God suddenly said seriously, and Su Xuan looked at the Military God and then at Shen Yunfei, saying.

"A bodyguard? Does a mayor’s daughter really need a bodyguard?"

Su Xuan said weakly, wondering why they thought of him. He was somewhat reluctant; being a bodyguard, trailing a girl day in and day out, didn’t seem like fun.

"Su Xuan, because you’re Brother Jun’s apprentice, I won’t hide it from you. In our officialdom, making enemies is inevitable. As the official in charge of Coast City, I’ve been cracking down on some cases recently, which might have upset some people’s interests. They’ve started to warn me. I’m not worried about myself, but I have a daughter who’s still in college. I’m worried they might use her against me, so I want to find a reliable bodyguard to protect her. What do you think?"

Shen Feiyun said sincerely. Being an honest and upright official, Shen Feiyun naturally made a lot of enemies. This time, his investigation of a human organs case in Coast City seemed to touch on some influential families’ interests, and he received warnings.

"So why is it either six months or a year?"

Su Xuan asked curiously, thinking the time commitment seemed a bit long and was hard for him to accept.

"That’s because there’s a mayoral election in half a year, and I have a strong competitor. So in the next six months, I won’t have extra energy."
