The Beautiful Boss's Personal Bodyguard

"Beep beep beep!"

A window popped up.

Wu Xu, who was bored watching a movie, was suddenly startled and took a closer look. It was a QQ chat window with a message.

"Your computer is infected, do you want to run antivirus?"

Below were two options in English, 'YES' and 'NO'.

"Damn! Got a virus? You kidding me?" Wu Xu was shocked; he knew his computer well, had downloaded lots of antivirus software, and the protective measures were layered upon layers. Ordinary viruses couldn't possibly get in.

And he hadn't been doing anything inappropriate for children, so how come there was a virus attack?

But no amount of thought would help, Wu Xu hastily chose YES.

However, the next moment, the messages in the pop-up window changed.

"Antivirus is too slow, the virus has overtaken the computer, please shut down."

"Fuck, shit, curse that damn prankster, may your son be born without an asshole." Wu Xu was dumbfounded, then quickly realized he'd been pranked.

This kind of trick couldn't possibly be a real antivirus notification; it was a human prank, making one anxious and then disgusted.

Wu Xu didn't hesitate and tried to close the window by clicking the 'X' in the top right corner.

But Wu Xu quickly got frustrated, the 'X' was right there, but when the mouse clicked on it, all he heard were 'ding ding ding' sounds, and the window wouldn't disappear.

Angrier still, Wu Xu utilized all the tricks he knew, but to no avail; the window remained there, impervious to his attempts to close it.

"Alright, whatever dude, I'm impressed, you've got talent." Wu Xu sighed in helplessness, moved the mouse to shut down the computer.

"Ding!"

Finally, the window changed, displaying another message.

"The virus has taken control of the computer, shutdown function is disabled."

"Go fuck yourself, I'm done playing." Wu Xu exploded in anger, delivering a kick to the power button on the computer case.

"Zzzap!"

The next moment, an anomaly erupted. The main case buzzed uncontrollably, sparks of electricity flickered, and the computer screen fluctuated rapidly, changing colors.

And Wu Xu, the culprit, still had one foot on the case. In an instant, the flickering blue light covered his leg and rapidly spread across his entire body.

"Shit, this is too much."

A thought flashed by, and Wu Xu collapsed unconscious into his chair.

The blue glow continued to cover him, as Wu Xu's body hairs and scalp stood on end, shaking slightly.

Moments later, everything was back to normal. Beside the computer desk, only wisps of foul-smelling smoke rose from the burnt wires.

...

Groggily waking up, Wu Xu felt a tinge of numbness and itchiness all over his body, along with a slight hunger. Then, startled, he remembered that he had apparently been electrocuted.

"Ew! Why do I smell so bad?" Wu Xu suddenly noticed something off about his own odor, his expression changed in an instant, and he looked down to see a layer of black grime that was especially disgusting, emitting an unbearable stench that nearly made him vomit.

Not caring about the reason, Wu Xu rushed into the narrow bathroom and frantically scrubbed himself for over ten minutes before he finally felt a sense of relief.

"Damn it! When it rains, it pours! I was just watching a movie and ended up getting pranked, and now my computer's fried, a huge loss," Wu Xu lamented as he wiped himself dry and then took a swig of Wong Lo Kat, feeling a refreshing sensation spread through his chest, reducing his hunger significantly.

"I'm not answering the phone, yeah, because I'm sick, what sickness, yeah, I got craziness..."

Suddenly, ringtone blared from the cell phone on the table.

Wu Xu hurriedly picked it up and saw it was his friend Zhao Jun calling. As soon as he answered, Zhao Jun started cursing loudly through the phone.

Wu Xu realized his faux pas; it turned out that today was the weekend, and that morning Zhao Jun had asked Wu Xu to get ready to assist with Zhao Jun's blind date in the evening. Wu Xu was meant to give his opinion and also covertly provide backup—in case the date didn't pan out, they had a plan for Wu Xu to help Zhao Jun make an escape.

Previously, Zhao Jun had already called over ten times, but Wu Xu had been unconscious due to the prank accident.

Quickly apologizing, Wu Xu checked the time. Though rushed, he could still make it. He hurriedly changed into clean clothes and dashed out of his rented room.

"Snap!"

"Ah!"

As Wu Xu closed his door and turned around in haste, his vision blurred for a moment, followed by a sharp cry of surprise, and then he felt himself bump into a body.

Realizing something was amiss, Wu Xu saw a girl whose body was tilting backward, about to fall towards the stairwell.

At that moment, the girl's hands were holding two big bags, leaving her no way to stabilize herself.

Wu Xu paled in shock, but the next moment, his body lunged forward with incredible speed, and he extended an arm behind the girl, catching her.

Wu Xu was stunned. Since when did he have such rapid and agile reflexes? Moreover, the girl's entire body was lying on his arm, and it didn't feel heavy!

Shit, when did he get this superhuman strength and speed? Damn impressive!

The girl was also flabbergasted at that moment, lying in the crook of Wu Xu's arm, staring with wide eyes at his enchanting deep eyes. She had her mouth open but couldn't speak a word.

"Ah!!"

Just then, from below the staircase, another sharp scream followed, and then an outraged voice yelled, "Pervert, let go of my sister!"
