Female Star's Personal Bodyguard

Seeing Ye Chen's pretentious demeanor, Li Yingjie couldn't help but feel his blood boil. Becoming a martial arts master just by self-teaching?

You really think too highly of yourself!

Ye Chen's innocent expression, to Li Yingjie, seemed truly deserving of a beating, and his boasts about being self-taught made it even more so; he was just asking for it.

"Young man, you must be joking. Your martial arts skill is not inferior to mine, so how can you not have a master? I assume your master prefers to remain hidden to avoid revealing his identity," Li Yingjie said with a smile. Some hermits don't want to be disturbed by worldly matters, so they choose not to dive into the societal melting pot.

Ye Chen's remarks were outrageous and even more deserving of a beating, but this made Li Yingjie even more certain that Ye Chen's master must really be a martial arts grandmaster!

Ye Chen smiled and lowered his head, which seemed like he was agreeing with Li Yingjie, as if there truly was a master of extraordinary skill behind him.

The middle-aged man behind Li Yingjie almost peed himself upon hearing this. Li Yingjie was not only a kung fu superstar but also a highly respected martial arts master within the Huaxia Martial Arts Community, one of the highest skilled individuals currently. And now, this young man's martial arts skills were comparable to Li Yingjie's, and he had an even more formidable master behind him, which was astonishing, especially since the middle-aged man was also part of the martial arts community and understood the gravity of these statements.

Liu Shihua and Zhang Xinlan were already dumbfounded. They weren't quite aware of Ye Chen's value yet, but since his flashy debut yesterday, he had continually performed miracles that left them extremely shocked.

And today, Ye Chen showed his incredibly cool side yet again by chatting and laughing with the kung fu superstar Li Yingjie, almost bringing the two women to their knees in admiration of Immortal Ye!

"I overheard your conversation just now. You must be Miss Liu Shihua's bodyguard, and the pay must be generous!" Li Yingjie glanced at Liu Shihua and Zhang Xinlan, and candidly said to Ye Chen, "But pardon my frankness, you are belittling your talent by being a bodyguard. It's a loss for the entire Huaxia Martial Arts Community! How about you join the Huaxia Martial Arts Association? I can guarantee you a position as the vice chairman."

Li Yingjie spoke lightly, but the middle-aged man behind him nearly went weak at the knees when he heard the offer!

The Huaxia Martial Arts Association is a paradise for martial artists—a massive community with an exalted status in society and a destination every martial artist dreams of, supported by the Huaxia government!

The Huaxia Martial Arts Association has three elusive grand chairmen and twelve vice chairmen who have reached the mastery level in martial arts. Li Yingjie is one of those twelve!

Li Yingjie is not only a kung fu superstar but also a martial arts master with deep connections. Being in such a high position, he has the power, and a recommendation from him could indeed secure the vice chairman position for Ye Chen!

At this moment, Li Yingjie's promise to recommend Ye Chen for the vice-chairman position was like a pie falling from the sky—an offer no martial artist could resist.

Keep in mind, this middle-aged man is skilled himself and is Li Yingjie's cousin, yet in the association, he's just a manager.

With Li Yingjie personally recommending him, he felt Ye Chen should be laughing with joy and then kneeling on the ground, overwhelmed with gratitude!

However, the scene he imagined did not happen; the young man was very calm.

"I'd better not, my ambition doesn't lie in this direction," Ye Chen shook his head, showing little interest in the proposal.

Li Yingjie: "..."

The middle-aged man, hearing Ye Chen's refusal, nearly lunged forward to strangle Ye Chen. You fool, what a great opportunity you're missing—why not give it to me then!

"I'm not a bodyguard just for the money! It's because I can protect the person I love. Wherever she is, I will be there too, protecting her until the end of time, until we grow old together!" Ye Chen seized every opportunity to express his love, firmly rejecting Li Yingjie's offer.

"It's great to be young!" Li Yingjie, taken aback, then glanced at Liu Shihua.

"You'd willingly serve as a guard for your beloved, which is truly a love story worthy of praise. But this is also a loss for our Huaxia Martial Arts Community. I really hope one day you will change your mind!" Li Yingjie patted Ye Chen's shoulder, sighed deeply, and left, keeping a low profile.

This Li Yingjie is quite interesting, actually wanting Ye Chen to join the martial arts association and even offering him a vice-chairman position. However, Ye Chen naturally had no interest in these things.

Right now, Ye Chen just wanted to hurry up and marry his girl, tend to the garden, sing some songs, have a few children, and live a few years of a pretentious life.

"Ye Chen, the fact that you gave up so much for me is so touching. I've decided to quit the entertainment industry and marry you. From now on, I'll follow you back to your hometown to live a simple life!"

After Li Yingjie left, Liu Shihua covered her face and wept. She had heard Ye Chen's declaration of guarding her for a lifetime and was totally moved.

Ye Chen was at a loss for words. He had been referring to Zhang Xinlan, not you. Even if you're a big star, you can't just whimsically claim a decent young man for yourself! When people become self-absorbed, they really think they're unparalleled in the universe. As for Liu Shihua's dramatics, Ye Chen completely ignored it.

"Liu Shihua, are you trying to get exposed here? This is a public place, and you're joking about anything!" Zhang Xinlan fumed, reminding that Ye Chen's affectionate declaration was meant for her.

"I'm not joking!" Liu Shihua countered adamantly.

"Pretender!"

"I'm serious, no joke!"

"Keep pretending!"

"I've fallen for Ye Chen, you're not scared I'll steal your man, are you?"

"Continue pretending!" Zhang Xinlan was already cold as ice, Liu Shihua this little girl was simply too infuriating.

"Haha~ Hahahaha! Zhang Xinlan, your expression is so comical, it's killing me, are you jealous!" Liu Shihua laughed loudly, she was deliberately trying to provoke Zhang Xinlan, who she knew absolutely had a spark with Ye Chen, yet she would never admit it.

Ye Chen silently watched the two women quarrel, feeling that his relationship with Zhang Xinlan had taken a huge step forward, toppling the goddess was within reach.

"Alright, let's hurry to the makeup room, you still have to perform on stage later!" Zhang Xinlan conceded.

"Yeah!" Liu Shihua happily agreed.

"Guys, let's go!"

The superstar Liu Shihua walked at the forefront, shining brightly, with Zhang Xinlan accompanying her on the side, and Ye Chen closely guarding her.

Tianda Group is a leading enterprise in Huaxia, holding a pivotal position internationally as well, and such a behemoth of a group spared no expense in constructing a super shopping plaza, bringing social elites to its door, coming to show support.

One after another, the appearance of celebrity bigshots caused waves of cheers among the crowd at Tianda Plaza, not to mention, Tianda really broke the bank this time to catch people's eyes and become the hot topic of the moment.

The commission spent to bring so many stars to this event was astronomical!

The grand opening of Tianda Plaza was not only star-studded, but also thronged with big names from the business circle.

Chu Yanran arrived, exuding nobility and grandeur. Li Weiguo, in his role as the Imperial Guards' Great Commander, led a dozen formidable bodyguards surrounding the empress. Upon spotting cameras pointing their way, Li Weiguo snatched one and smashed it on the ground, reducing it to pieces. Associating with the empress demanded a demeanor that scorned all under heaven!

"Li Weiguo, don't do something so outrageous again!" Chu Yanran said coldly.

This was not the first time Li Weiguo behaved this way, but given her high status, the media dared not overstate the incident; however, it seemed Li Weiguo had developed an addiction to smashing cameras.

"Yes, ma'am!" Li Weiguo obediently acquiesced like a little sheep.

Chu Yanran shook her head; this man was duplicitous, but Li Weiguo truly understood her demeanor and had done several things that greatly satisfied her, which is why she greatly favored this commander.

"I wonder if that man named Ye Chen will come here today, I hope to meet him!"

Yesterday, upon her arrival at Emperor Hotel, Chu Yanran heard quite a lot about Ye Chen from He Xiangdong and others, getting to know his background, but to her surprise, such an extraordinary person was a celebrity bodyguard!

The superstar Liu Shihua's fame was explosive; although Chu Yanran was not very interested in the entertainment industry, she had still heard of this national goddess's deeds—she could be considered a marvel in the entertainment world!

"Li Weiguo just mentioned that Liu Shihua arrived, I hope Ye Chen is with her too, no matter what, I must ask this extraordinary person for help, for my son, for the old lady!" Chu Yanran whispered to herself.

Yesterday, after returning home, the old lady tripped on the stairs and fell, now lying unconscious in the hospital, still not out of danger. The team of top experts she had summoned was completely at a loss!

The old lady's life hung by a thread, and Chu Yanran could not help but remember the words of that Taoist years ago—that without the aid of a benefactor, not only would her son bring death to everyone around him, but he would also eventually lead to his own death. Being a remarkable woman, Chu Yanran was nearly driven to a mental breakdown by this incident, placing her hopes now entirely on Ye Chen, this mysterious Mr. Miracle she had yet to meet but had great expectations for.

…

Ye Chen was currently praising his own martial prowess and brilliance, having become Liu Shihua's personal bodyguard. His ancestors wouldn't have to worry about lacking a goddess anymore.

Ye Chen now felt as if he were in a blissful paradise, surrounded by these enchanting calamities; the excitement almost knocked him out.

"Li Yan, this top female anchor of Huaxia is truly a stunner, her figure is amazing, I only glanced once, but even high purity titanium alloy could hardly match her brilliance!" Ye Chen looked at the female anchor Li Yan, too excited to contain himself.

"Lin Ruru, my long-awaited goddess, today I finally saw her in person!"

This sect leader of Jade Women had been in the industry for over a decade yet retained her beauty; she still had that innocent look, but it was mixed with maturity that was devastating to men.
