Top-class Bodyguard

Chapter 240: Unless You Can Finish First



Ren Feng didn't say a word.

Qian Li felt a jolt in his heart. Seeing Ren Feng's expressionless face, he gritted his teeth, forced a smile, and said, "If you think it's still not enough, I can reduce it by another 70%."

Saying this made Qian Li's heart ache. Reducing it by 70%, he wouldn't earn any money, and might even lose everything, but there was no choice. This wasn't the time to negotiate. If he didn't settle with this mysterious figure, he might lose his life.

Ren Feng glanced at Qian Li with a faint smile but still said nothing. He knew that, in this situation, he held the upper hand.

Sure enough, seeing Ren Feng not speaking, Qian Li was almost about to cry.

"Reducing 70% is really my limit. I can only cut another 5% at most, otherwise, the loss would be unbearable. Please, have mercy, and some of these herbs are rare. Like Mandala and Psilocybe aren't local herbs, and the planting cost is too high."

Qian Li was almost crying; his heart was too big. Was he really looking to get these for free?

However, hearing the names of these herbs, Ren Feng couldn't help but frown.

Mandala, Psilocybe?

He knew very well the effects of these herbs, primarily anesthesia, and they could even cause hallucinations. What did Xue'xue want with such herbs?

Ren Feng felt confused. In Xia Wenxue's company, mainly perfumes and cosmetics would involve herbs, but Mandala wasn't needed.

Ren Feng squinted his eyes slightly: "What other herbs did Mr. Xia buy from you? List them all for me."

"I have an invoice, please wait a moment."

Qian Li, flustered, took out his phone, pulled up a document contract, and respectfully handed it to Ren Feng.

"All the herbs are listed here, please take a look."

Ren Feng took the list and immediately scanned through it quickly.

After reading, his frown deepened.

Apart from ordinary herbs, there were quite a few like Mandala with hallucinogenic effects.

What exactly is going on?

Ren Feng looked up at Qian Li's tense face and said calmly, "When did Mr. Xia start working with you?"

"Actually, it's been three years." Qian Li said cautiously, "This time, it was because a friend mentioned that Mr. Xia is as beautiful as a fairy, so I wanted to find a way to see if Mr. Xia lived up to her name."

Ren Feng didn't speak.

"Do you think this is okay?" Qian Li asked cautiously.

"70%," Ren Feng said flatly, "You cut the price by 70%, and I won't hold you accountable."

"Yes, yes." Qian Li nodded quickly, feeling a sense of relief.

"Get lost, and if I hear you bothering Mr. Xia again, don't blame me for being harsh."

"No, no, I won't." Qian Li scampered away in panic.

After Qian Li left, Ren Feng turned back to the hotel, considering Jin Hai on the line as thoroughly dealt with.

All the key figures of Jin Gang had fallen into Ren Feng's hands. From today, Jin Gang was removed from Wansha City.

Back in the room, Xia Wenxue was relieved to finally see Ren Feng return.

"Are you alright?" Xia Wenxue asked with concern on her face.

"How could anything happen to me?" Ren Feng replied with a smile. He originally wanted to ask about those herbs but decided against it.

Maybe Xia Wenxue had other special uses for them.

"Alright, the matter is resolved. Xue'xue, let's go for a walk. I guess you haven't had the time to relax."

...

Every city has its unique characteristics. Take Lijiang, for instance, known as the "City of Encounters," where meeting girls is seemingly effortless.

Although it might not be that magical, it is indeed easier to meet someone there compared to girls in other cities, much like how it's easier abroad compared to domestically.

And Wansha City is one such city, especially during the swimming festival when the girls dress beautifully. The legs under the short skirts are simply eye-catching.

Some girls even go further, wearing crop tops, and by the riverside, many girls are in swimsuits!

Ren Feng and Xia Wenxue walked on the bridge, with couples laughing and passing by continuously.

In the river at a distance, a swimming competition was happening, open to anyone who wanted to sign up. If you won, you'd get a commemorative prize, and of course, some girls might fancy you and leave a number.

"Xue'xue, this Wansha City is indeed quite beautiful," Ren Feng said, glancing at Xia Wenxue, "Do you feel a bit better?"

"Hmm." Xia Wenxue replied softly. Looking at the various little trinkets on stalls around, her face showed some fresh curiosity.

"Actually, Xue'xue, one should live happily. If there's something weighing on your mind, you should speak about it," Ren Feng chuckled.

Xia Wenxue's beautiful eyes gazed at Ren Feng, "Do I have anything weighing on my mind?"

"Yes, you do."

Ren Feng leaned closer to Xia Wenxue's face, "In your heart, isn't there a place for me?"

After saying that, Ren Feng resumed joking around.

Xia Wenxue felt a mysterious sense of relief just as Ren Feng suddenly grabbed her hand.

As if held by warmth and strength, before Xia Wenxue could react, Ren Feng had already pulled her towards the swimming competition in the distance.

"Come on, Xue'xue, let's join the swimming competition."

Being pulled along by Ren Feng, Xia Wenxue felt a bit dazed, with a strange feeling emerging inside her.

Is this really what love feels like?

Xia Wenxue was led by Ren Feng to the registration point.

"Ren Feng, you should enter, I'll just watch."

Xia Wenxue said from the side.

Ren Feng thought for a moment and smiled, "If I win, will you give me a reward?"

"What reward do you want?" Xia Wenxue's tone softened at this moment.

"Kiss me," Ren Feng chuckled.

Hearing Ren Feng's demand made Xia Wenxue's heart race.

"Sure, unless you can swim to first place."

Xia Wenxue turned her head, her face heating up as she said.

After saying that, Xia Wenxue found it strange herself; why would she agree to his request?

Ren Feng, however, laughed heartily, "Xue'xue, it looks like I've secured this reward."

Then, Ren Feng signed up, changed into his swimwear, and waited for the race to begin.

Xia Wenxue stood behind, watching the excited Ren Feng, growing more bewildered.

What's happened to me?

Even knowing I could get deeper into this, why did I still agree?

Meanwhile, two men preparing for the race beside her also noticed Xia Wenxue.

One of them had his eyes light up instantly.

"Liangzi, did you see that woman?"

"Yo, Diao, you have sharp eyes. This woman is definitely first-class," the guy next to him also kept his eyes fixed on Xia Wenxue.

"Haha, I want her," Diao laughed. "Just watch me win the race and then pursue her; it's bound to be a success!"
