The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

Speaking of unique personalities in the world, there are thousands, but Dugu Tianke can definitely be counted as one and even ranks among the top.

Have you ever seen someone wearing a white long gown and black cloth shoes coming to Passion Bar? This style is completely out of place.

"Master, what brings you to the bar?" Ye Shikai took a sip of his drink and chatted.

"Haha, even an old man like me needs to enjoy life," Dugu Tianke downed his drink and laughed heartily.

"Indeed," Ye Shikai nodded. You could say that Dugu Tianke dresses like this, but it's definitely not because he's poor. The entire Yun City needs to give him face; he truly disregards fame and fortune. If you were to calculate personal assets, he's an invisible giant.

"Young man, I can see your face is troubled, and there's darkness between your brows. You must have some worries," Dugu Tianke waved his hand in front of Ye Shikai, speaking seriously.

"As expected of the master, not only a Divine Doctor but also a Divine Fortune Teller," Ye Shikai smiled bitterly. Speaking of Mind Reading Techniques, women in love come first, and Dugu Tianke must be second.

"Actually, it's very easy to guess. Someone like you can't possibly have a calm life."

"What do you mean, what kind of person am I?" Ye Shikai's heart skipped a beat, seemingly catching on to Dugu Tianke's implication, but he was reluctant to believe it.

"Young man, you're a big figure. I've foreseen that you'll meet an important person in the coming days," Dugu Tianke pinched his fingers and smiled.

"Oh, what kind of important person?"

"Haha, that's a Heavenly Secret I can't reveal," Dugu Tianke feigned mystery and suddenly said with a laugh. Ye Shikai felt frustrated; this was as good as saying nothing. Anyone could be an important person. If not said, Ye Shikai might even think De was his important person.

"Young man, life cannot be all oblivion, but also shouldn't be fully understood. Understanding everything loses many aspects of life," Dugu Tianke said lightly. This seemed to be a philosophical statement. Isn't life just like this? If you know everything, aren't you a Prophet? A life where you can see the ending at a glance loses all fun.

"But right now, I know nothing," Ye Shikai self-mockingly said.

"Alright, since we have the fortune to meet, let's not talk about life. Tell me your troubles, and if I can help, I certainly will," Dugu Tianke said while clinking glasses with Ye Shikai. The cocktail the young man was drinking stood out in his hands, creating a stark contrast in style. Based on a martial arts novel's image, shouldn't he be the one using a gourd as a drinking vessel?

"I usually shouldn't say this, but since you're the master, I'll share with you first." Ye Shikai hesitated for a moment and then spoke. Technically, it violated the rules, but he hoped Dugu Tianke had a solution to the antidote problem of the HST agent.

"The human heart is truly terrifying," Dugu Tianke's expression shifted slightly as he spoke after a while.

"Master, you're shocked too, right?" Even though they were knowledgeable, neither Ye Shikai nor anyone in the Netherworld Palace believed in the existence of human-animal hybrids, especially ones that were artificially created.

"Saving one life is a huge merit, young man. It seems I didn't help the wrong person," Dugu Tianke gave Ye Shikai a heavy look. Ye Shikai felt gratified to be praised by Dugu Tianke; it was a kind of honor.

"Master, do you have any ideas?" Ye Shikai asked.

"Young man, if you haven't obtained the antidote before these innocent people fully mutate, what would you do?" Dugu Tianke didn't answer directly but asked Ye Shikai this question. To achieve greatness, one doesn't plan for success but anticipates failure. Ye Shikai was very troubled. The truth is, once they truly mutate into thoughtless Mothmen, keeping them isn't possible. But if released, it would be a massacre in Yanjing.

So ultimately, there's only one result, but Ye Shikai wouldn't—couldn't—bring himself to do it. They were innocent. Nobody has the right to 'cleanse' them.

"Remember what was said? 'In moments of hesitation, make decisive decisions.'"

"Of course." Ye Shikai nodded, but in this matter, he truly couldn't face the unknown outcome.

"Today's high-tech is really scary, being able to create such things," Dugu Tianke said lightly. "Medicine alone can't sort out genes."

"So... you... don't have a solution," Ye Shikai heard this and felt uneasy. Even Dugu Tianke had no solution, so what could be done?

"However, I might have some ways to delay their time," suddenly, Dugu Tianke changed the topic. Ye Shikai was stunned for a moment and excitedly shouted. Fortunately, they were in a bar, or he would've startled those around him.

"Master, you have a way! Hurry up and say it," Ye Shikai excitedly grabbed Dugu Tianke's arm, shaking it continually.

"Wait a minute, don't rush," Dugu Tianke said lightly. "Although the agent recombines the human body's genes, pharmacology alone can't thoroughly solve the problem. But it can delay the mutation time."

"Any agent entering the body must combine with parts of the body to work, like the blood, kidneys, heart. Pills can delay the time the agent and organs combine, thus extending the mutation time."

"Indeed," Ye Shikai suddenly realized. He had only thought about how to completely cleanse the agent from the body but overlooked this. He could delay the time first and find a solution gradually. In this case, time is more important than methods.

"So Master, do you have these pills? If so, let me have some." Seeing the urgency, Ye Shikai didn't hold back, reaching out to ask.

"Don't rush. I'm no mobile hospital; how would I carry medicine around with me?" Dugu Tianke laughed. "Looks like you'll have to make a trip to Yun City with me."

"No problem, we can go now," Ye Shikai immediately agreed.

"In such a hurry?"

"Of course, those people are really at their limit. Master, please bear with it," Ye Shikai quickly dragged Dugu Tianke, intending to head directly to the airport, while his other hand was already on his phone, notifying Ghost to prepare a private jet for a night flight to Yun City.

"What's going on? And who is this old gentleman…" At this moment, Luo Shiqi also came over. Seeing the two about to leave, she curiously asked.

"Shiqi, we have an urgent matter. I'll explain to you later. Oh, please settle the master's bar tab for now," Ye Shikai didn't even have time to stop as he ran past Luo Shiqi.
