Chapter 87: Follow Me

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Young Master, she’s here," announced the manager respectfully as he stepped forward.

"I can see that." The man’s gaze stopped and remained fixed on Mu Huan’s eyes.

Although the former appeared to be a young and frivolous person, the latter did not drop her guard.

Just then, the man opened his mouth. "Go wash your face, then come back and talk to me with it clean and bare."

Her eyes drooped. "I’m here only to collect the money."

"You joined the competition for the prize money, yeah?" He cocked a brow slightly.

"Yes."

"If that’s so, it’s all good, then. Follow me, and I’ll guarantee that you’ll live in the lap of luxury!" She was the first person he found to look so alike.

"…"

Is there a problem with his eyes? Given my current appearance, he actually wants me to follow him?

"Don’t get me wrong. I’m not interested in your type. All I want is a female bodyguard. If you follow me, I’ll give you an annual salary of at least ten million, and if you’re good at your job, there’ll be a big reward for you as well. The money you make will be much more than what you’ll make from boxing."

An annual salary of ten million…

If this had been proposed to her before her marriage with Bao Junyan, she would certainly have agreed to it right away. She could not do so now, however.

"Thanks for looking kindly upon me, but I’m afraid I’ll have to decline. It’s only out of interest for the prize money that I joined the boxing match. I don’t box for a living, and I have no intention of working as a bodyguard."

"You might not have had the intention before, but you can start planning to be one now." The more he looked, the more he found those eyes to be alike.

Mu Huan: "As of now, I don’t plan

"Then you can forget about collecting your prize money of half a million!"

"I won it!"

"Well, I’m the boss here. My words are final."

"You’ll lose credibility if you don’t give me what I’ve earned. Will you still be able to operate your business here, then?"

"So be it. I could hardly care about losing a piece of this industry."

Mu Huan: "…!!!"

What the f*ck!

"Be my bodyguard, and I’ll give you that half a million right away, followed by an annual salary of ten million and lots of benefits. If you don’t, you’ll have wasted your time and effort competing in today’s competition. Here’s my name card. Give me a call once you’ve thought it through." As he spoke, he tossed a name card toward her.

She did not catch it, though. Instead, she let it freely drop to the ground before sweeping her eyes over the name printed on it. Long Feiting.

That name rang a bell, but she just could not recall where she’d heard it before.

"No need for any consideration as I won’t become your bodyguard. Please give me that half a million. It’s what I deserve."

"No means no!" Long Feiting was never one to accept rejections.

With her gaze turning sinister, she lifted her eyes and warned, "Don’t regret this."

The two things in life that she could never accept were betrayal and being robbed of her money.

Both were equally unforgivable!

"Regret? I’ve never known what is called regret. Do you honestly think you can make me regret anything?" He lifted a brow. If not for those eyes of hers that captivated him and made him wish for her to stay, he would never be interested in her, a boxer. To think she actually could not tell good from bad and dared to reject him. And now, she even wanted him to regret his decision.

He would just like to see what capabilities she had to make him do so!

"Are you sure you won’t give me the prize money?" she asked again for the last time.

"No. What about it?"

Mu Huan gave him no response, though, and merely gave him a hard look before turning around and leaving.

It was only after she left that the manager dared to speak.

"Surely this is inappropriate, Young Master." Their young master was simply too willful.

"What’s inappropriate about it?" Long Feiting snorted in reply.

"We work in this line, but we’re not giving her the prize money she won… Are we truly quitting the industry?"

"That depends on whether or not she has what it takes to put you out of a job."

She’s only suffering from superficial injuries."</p><p>"Then why did she pass out after coughing up blood?" Wu Xingye’s brows were tightly squished together.</p><p>"Didn’t you say that she had just suffered from a huge blow? Medically speaking, when a person’s emotions receive a huge stimulation, it will lead to ruptured capillaries in the nasopharynx and to bleeding. In short, the patient being overagitated caused her blood pressure to rise and her to cough up blood. Moreover, she has a relatively low blood sugar count, which was the cause of her fainting."</p><p>Li Meng: "…"</p><p>Wu Xingye: "…"</p><p><em>So it’s really a case of overagitation?</em></p><p>At the thought of how desperate their friend’s need for money was, having lost 200,000 a couple of days back and now, another half a million, they were now somewhat convinced that she might have very well coughed up blood out of anger. Otherwise, she would not have gone to the extent of smashing that silly young master’s car.</p><p>They heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.</p><p>After the doctor left…</p><p>"Trust that idiot not to give Xiao Huan her hard-earned money! He really deserves to die!" The thought of her bestie coughing up blood from anger sent a ball of fury that was temporarily extinguished when Mu Huan fainted to course through Li Meng once again.</p><p>"We can’t let him off so simply! We must find some ways to exact vengeance!" hissed Wu Xingye, his eyes cold and dark.</p><p>Having come a long way with Mu Huan, they knew very well how pressed she was for money and how important that half a million was to her, so they could never permit anyone to cheat her in such a manner!</p><p>"Right. You go run an investigation on that harebrained young master’s background." Li Meng could not take it lying down.</p><p>"His name is Long Feiting, and the name seems to ring a bell with me, but I just can’t recall where I’ve heard it from. You go check," said Mu Huan as she sat up.</p><p>"You’re awake, Xiao Huan!" The two hastily crowded around her.</p><p>"Trust me to faint. This is really…" She reckoned that she must have lived too long a life to have encountered such a thing. "I’m fine. No internal injuries, right?"</p><p>During the competition, she had never taken the initiative to attack her opponents and had chosen a defensive attack style instead. Hence, with her good agility, she was able to evade attacks on her vital organs each time.</p><p>"Nope." Wu Xingye nodded.</p><p>"You were really overagitated." Seeing how she seemed to be in pretty good spirits after gaining consciousness, Li Meng could now completely put down her worries.</p><p>"I was really incensed." Her heart ached badly at the thought of that prize money.</p><p>"Simmer down. We can always earn that money again."</p><p>While the two girls were chatting away, Wu Xingye had found information on Long Feiting…</p><p>"We might’ve gotten into trouble…"</p><p>"What’s the matter?" The other two turned their heads toward him at the same time.</p><p>"Long Feiting, aka Young Master Long of the Emperor Group in the Imperial Capital, is fondly favored by his grandfather. He’s notorious for being an arrogant and domineering tyrant."</p><p>Mu Huan frowned. "That world’s top 100 Emperor Group?"</p><p>"Yes."</p><p>"Don’t fret about it, Xiao Huan. Your husband’s company is much more impressive than the Emperor Group," assured Li Meng.</p><p>"That might be true, but surely you don’t want her husband to find out that Xiao Huan got duped and have gotten herself into trouble for smashing another person’s car while trying to earn money through boxing?" Wu Xingye rolled his eyes at her.</p><p>The latter </p><p>"Xiao Meng, go settle the discharge procedures and we’ll leave right away. I’ll lock myself at home during the next few days. You two best not go out in the meantime as well!" After pondering for a bit, Mu Huan continued, "Xingye, go hack into the hospital’s surveillance system."</p><p>Because of her familiarity with the surroundings, she was able to avoid all the surveillance cameras during the competition and, hence, did not leave a trace behind. Now, though, she could only resort to hacking into the surveillance system to wipe out her traces as a precaution since she had undergone so many examinations in the hospital.</p><h3>Comment (<span>0</span>)</h3><h3>Chapter 89: Getting into Trouble
