Chapter 142 Last-minute preparation
When she left, Yan Luo was quite curious to know just how dangerous the ancient martial arts world was, that Chen Feng had actually been injured. However, the kid smoothly brushed her off with a few words and slipped away.
Yan Luo couldn't help but say, "Hey? Do you take me for some kind of monster?"
But she had no choice but to follow.
When the door opened, there was a row of people standing outside, all of them looking very serious, while a very charming woman was sitting on the sofa in the hall.
The woman wore a gorgeous purple fitted dress, simple and elegant, but she wore diamond earrings and a pearl necklace that was particularly eye-catching.
She may be a strong, independent woman, but when facing He Fei, her expression is full of maternal love.
"Honey, why don't you pick a bodyguard? Otherwise, your uncles will get tired of standing."
"What's going on?" Zhang Jingyi asked, puzzled, as almost all of Rosen Security's senior bodyguards were gathered in rows.
Shavin shrugged helplessly: "There's nothing I can do. This lady wants to choose a bodyguard from among so many people to escort her precious daughter."
Chen Feng arrived a step late, but upon hearing Sha Wen's words, he glanced around at the people and asked, "These all seem to be ordinary people."
Sending an ordinary person to face a martial artist from the ancient martial arts world is like sending them to their doom.
As he walked out, He Fei, sitting next to the lady, brightened her beautiful emerald green eyes. Although she couldn't speak, she stretched out her small hand and pointed directly at Chen Feng.
The noblewoman's gaze also swept over Chen Feng with a hint of scrutiny: "Him? He doesn't look like a very strong man."
That gaze held a strong and undisguised contempt.
Good heavens! What kind of look is that?
Chen Feng felt that he was being discriminated against.
Sha Wen was genuinely stunned. He couldn't help but say, "This Miss He has really good taste... she actually chose someone from our Martial Arts Association?"
Zhang Jingyi also blinked.
When they went to protect He Fei in the name of Rosen Security Company, He Fei was very wary of them. However, in just a short while, she actually stuck to Chen Feng.
She was completely outmatched in this skill.
"Oh! Darling, we're choosing a bodyguard from this company, not some handsome young man, do you understand?" The lady sighed, rubbing her forehead.
He Fei's expressionless face furrowed her brows, and she spoke quickly in sign language, which surprised and puzzled the noblewoman.
Finally, the lady stood up and walked toward Chen Feng.
At this moment, Zhang Jingyi quickly whispered, "Junior brother, this lady doesn't know anything about martial artists and doesn't trust the Martial Artists Association. You should handle this carefully."
ha?
Chen Feng looked bewildered.
"Sir, my precious daughter hopes you can be her bodyguard for a while. She's been harassed lately. The perpetrators seem to belong to a crazy organization, so I'd like to know if you have the ability to protect my daughter?" The lady surprisingly spoke in Chinese, and she said calmly.
So you glared at me for ages just to ask this?
Chen Feng nodded silently: "Yes."
“Very good, I like brave young men. You prove it to me.”
After saying that, the mother actually pulled a gun out of her handbag and slammed it on the table with an air of authority.
That crisp and clear sound startled not only Chen Feng, but everyone else as well.
"Use this as proof?" Chen Feng stared at the gun slammed on the table, finding himself in a dilemma for the first time.
He had something he wanted to say.
"Yes, firearms, which symbolize military power, are one of my favorite things. I don't like fancy things, such as your country's martial arts or other qigong practices," the noblewoman said with undisguised arrogance.
Thus, all of Chen Feng's "fancy" ideas were nipped in the bud.
So, martial arts are just a flashy, superficial thing?
Ignorance is a sin!
"You just need to beat them, and I'll hire you as my precious daughter's bodyguard," the straightforward lady said. She paused, noticing Chen Feng's prolonged silence, and couldn't help but ask, "Or perhaps you don't even have the courage to hold a gun?"
If it were anyone else, Chen Feng would have given up long ago.
This time, however, he saw the well-behaved little girl sitting in the chair looking at him with nervous eyes, and nodded: "Okay!"
Then, with a confident smile, he said, "But you'll have to give me five minutes to warm up."
"Warm-up time?" The lady frowned slightly, clearly not understanding what he meant.
Chen Feng strode out, and Yan Luo followed almost immediately.
"You can use a gun?"
She couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Sha Wen, holding his head, walked beside Chen Feng and frowned, saying, "Don't be reckless, or you'll ruin the reputation of our Martial Arts Association."
To be honest, in his eyes, Chen Feng did look somewhat like a gigolo. The reason he was still being polite was probably because he had brought He Fei back.
"Don't worry." Chen Feng strolled leisurely into the security company's marksmanship training room. After putting on a balaclava, he smirked and said smugly, "I've handled guns before. I can get a bullseye in no time!"
Seeing his confident expression, Zhang Jingyi and the other two secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
With a loud "bang," Chen Feng confidently fired a shot.
Zhang Jingyi, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, stared at the target that Bai used outside of every class, and her breath caught in her throat!
Yan Luo exhaled in one breath, almost forgetting how to inhale it back up.
"Oh my god! Who taught you this technique?" Shavin was speechless for a long time. He looked at the pitiful wall in a slightly tactful tone.
There were no marks left on the target a hundred meters away, but a single hole mark appeared a few meters away from the target.
Chauvin swears to God that even a little girl like He Fei could shoot more accurately than Chen Feng!
Only someone blind could miss the bullseye this far.
Chen Feng clearly saw the unsatisfactory result. He reflected on it and realized that he had hit the target accurately last time... Well, Yan Beifeng was too close.
"My mistake, my mistake, please wait for me for another five minutes." Chen Feng said awkwardly.
The lady behind him was already twitching at the corner of her eye; this kid must be playing a trick on her!
With this level of skill, it's like someone who's never even handled a gun before!
Second shot.
This shot was much better than the first one.
At least I managed to get a spot on the outermost edge.
"I suspect he's nearsighted. Does he really not need to get a pair of glasses?" the noblewoman mocked earnestly, her expression becoming even more haughty.
"Haha, five minutes. Mrs. Yaledorf, please wait a moment. Perhaps he hasn't recovered yet..." Zhang Jingyi had no idea what was going on.
She realized that Chen Feng was really cramming at the last minute!
With that skill level, she could be more accurate than him even blindfolded!
