Chapter 118 Mu Ziyi
Because she suddenly heard the car, Yun Hanrui was also a bit shaken and feeling uneasy, when she suddenly heard the girl outside asking, "Are you Miss Yun Hanrui from Chaoyang Biotech?"
Yun Hanrui's eyes showed a wary look, "I am Yun Hanrui, who are you..."
The girl nodded, "As long as you are Yun Hanrui, open the door!"
After speaking, the girl patted the back door of the car and then attempted to pull open the car door to get in.
Ling Feng and Yun Hanrui were somewhat dumbfounded. Does this girl have some issues with her brain? Why would she want to get in the car without any reason? Who on earth is she?
"Hold on!" Ling Feng and Yun Hanrui got out of the car.
"Who are you? What do you want with me?" Yun Hanrui asked, frowning.
Although the girl in front of them had a powerful aura, she still seemed no match for Ling Feng in his eyes, so he felt quite comfortable letting Yun Hanrui interact with the girl.
The girl tilted her head and thought for a moment before saying, "If you are Yun Hanrui, then you are my target this time! I have to protect you!"
Yun Hanrui was somewhat incredulous, "You protect me? But I don't even know who you are!"
"My name is Mu Ziyi, assigned to the Dragon Group's Special Action Team!" The girl said seriously, "I was supposed to protect you directly last night, but I just arrived back in Yanjing yesterday and got lost, so I am only finding you now!"
Yun Hanrui was about to say something but was stopped by Ling Feng. Mu Ziyi of the Dragon Group, it seems that the higher-ups knew that Yun Hanrui had become a target for some hostile forces, therefore they especially dispatched someone to protect her.
"Xiao Rui, it's alright, since she is here to protect you, let's take her along with us!" Ling Feng said.
Yun Hanrui eyed Ling Feng suspiciously, "But I haven't confirmed her identity yet. What if she is…"
At that moment, Mu Ziyi took out her credentials, "Oh right, my master told me to show you this when I see you, you should understand now!"
There was a very subtle power on the credentials, which listed Mu Ziyi's basic information and affiliations. After reading it, Yun Hanrui was surprised to find that the girl was even younger than herself, only twenty-three years old!
Ding-a-ling, suddenly Ling Feng's phone rang. It was Bai Feifei calling.
"Ling Feng, have you guys encountered a girl named Mu Ziyi?" Bai Feifei asked with an anxious tone over the phone, "She was sent from above to protect Miss Yun Hanrui, but our Criminal Police Team waited all night and still didn't see her..."
"Don't worry, she's standing right in front of me now!" Ling Feng said.
After the call, Ling Feng looked at Mu Ziyi with a curious gaze.
"Your look is making me uncomfortable!" Mu Ziyi glanced at Ling Feng and frowned, "Your body doesn't carry the aura of a cultivator, but you give me a very strange feeling!"
Ling Feng was slightly startled in his heart, not expecting Mu Ziyi to sense even a trace of his aura. She was indeed extraordinary.
"Logically, you should have come with the people from the Criminal Police Team. Why did you come alone?" Ling Feng asked.
A bashful look appeared on Mu Ziyi's face, "After getting off the plane yesterday, I was really hungry, so I went up a nearby mountain to find something to eat. By the time I got back, there was no one at the airport."
Cough cough! Ling Feng almost drowned on his own saliva, "Don't you know there's food on the plane? And you didn't contact the Criminal Police beforehand?"
"Ah, there's food provided on the plane?" Mu Ziyi's eyes widened, "Then why wasn't food provided when I took the train before? Right, I don't have a mobile phone, so I couldn't contact them."
"No mobile phone?"
"Yes, my master said that mobile phones can make people dependent, induce laziness, and are something that leads to the loss of aspirations due to excessive entertainment!" Mu Ziyi said.
At this moment, Ling Feng began to understand a bit more about the girl named Mu Ziyi; she was the bodyguard Bai Feifei had mentioned. But perhaps she had been cultivating in the mountains with her master before, which might explain why she seemed somewhat out of touch with modern society!
Ling Feng whispered in Yun Hanrui's ear, "Don't worry, this girl is the one the higher-ups have sent down to protect you."
Yun Hanrui voiced her doubts, "Protect me? She's only twenty-three years old, a year younger than me!"
Mu Ziyi solemnly said, "Miss Yun, I am very strong! I will definitely be able to protect you!"
It was Mu Ziy's first time coming down from the mountain, and also her first assignment. Naturally, she wanted to complete it flawlessly. Now that Yun Hanrui was questioning her abilities, she couldn't help feeling a bit anxious.
At that moment, a toy slipped from the hands of a seven-or-eight-year-old girl nearby, falling to the ground and bouncing onto the road.
"Mommy, my toy!" cried the girl as she ran towards the middle of the road.
"Niuniu, don't go!" A young mother, caught off guard, watched her daughter run into the center of the street.
A speeding car was coming fast, and it looked like it was about to hit her.
"Not good!" Mu Ziyi's eyes narrowed, and, with a flicker, she vanished from Yun Hanrui's sight.
Screech! The sound of the car's emergency brakes could be heard, "Damn it, are you trying to get killed?!"
On the other side, the little girl was already tightly held in Mu Ziyi's arms, tears streaming down her face from fright.
"Bad luck!" The driver cursed and then drove away.
Yun Hanrui was stunned. In less than five seconds from the start of the incident, Mu Ziyi had actually saved the little girl from the jaws of death!
"Thank you, thank you so much!" the young mother ran over, her face filled with guilt and fear, "I can't thank you enough! Niuniu, say thank you to auntie."
Mu Ziyi smiled, her face showing a pure and innocent smile, "No need to thank me, I was only doing what I should!"
After the young mother left a business card and left with profuse gratitude, she departed.
Yun Hanrui also sighed in relief, seeing that this girl really did seem powerful!
"Now you should believe in my strength, right?" Mu Ziyi said seriously, "I will definitely protect you well!"
Yun Hanrui nodded, "Since that's the case, let's get going!"
Gurgle gurgle, Mu Ziyi's stomach suddenly made a rumbling sound, and under Ling Feng and Yun Hanrui's gaze, Mu Ziyi blushed a bit, "I haven't eaten since yesterday, so..."
A smile appeared on Yun Hanrui's face, "It just so happens that I'm a bit hungry too! Let's go have a meal together!"
In a nearby dumpling restaurant, Yun Hanrui watched Mu Ziyi as she polished off her third plate of dumplings, her eyes going numb. She now harbored doubts; was this young girl really sent by her superiors to protect her? Or was she an enemy's ploy to bankrupt her through food?
She can eat way too much! By the time the tenth plate of dumplings was gone, Mu Ziyi finally set down her chopsticks, a blissful expression on her face, "Sister Yun, thank you! This is the first time I've eaten my fill, I'm so happy!"
The corner of Yun Hanrui's mouth twitched, "No problem, as long as you're full."
Meanwhile, Ling Feng's gaze held a solemn edge. This girl named Mu Ziyi was very likely to have what is known as the 'Innocent Clarity' physique in the Cultivation World! That is a rare trait among cultivators, no wonder she appears so naïve about the world!
