Top-class Bodyguard

When Ren Feng returned to the villa, it was almost 10 o'clock.

He had spent a few hours at Liou Rumei's place, then went to Ghost Mountain, and came back deep into the night.

Parking the car, Ren Feng pushed open the door and walked directly into the living room.

But as soon as he entered the living room, he found Xia Wenxue sitting on the sofa flipping through a magazine.

"You're back?"

Xia Wenxue turned her head, brushed her hair aside, and the worry in her beautiful eyes dissipated.

For some reason, seeing Ren Feng made her feel at ease.

Ren Feng was taken aback, then smiled slightly, "Xue'xue, why aren't you asleep yet?"

"Well, I couldn't really sleep," Xia Wenxue closed the book, "If you're hungry, there's still food in the microwave."

Ren Feng walked over with a smile, "No need, I'm not hungry."

"Then I'll make you a cup of milk tea."

Xia Wenxue headed towards the kitchen and started to get busy, while Ren Feng stood beside her, watching her profile, thinking about how beautiful this woman truly was.

"Xue'xue, you weren't just waiting up for me, were you?"

Feeling playful, Ren Feng came up behind Xia Wenxue, lightly inhaling the scent of her soft hair.

Hmm, it smelled lovely.

Xia Wenxue tensed up slightly, then said, "No, I was just thinking about something today, don't overthink it."

Xia Wenxue handed him a fragrant cup of milk tea.

Returning to the sofa, Xia Wenxue began tidying up the magazines.

"Xue'xue, who was that person today?"

Ren Feng took a sip of the milk tea, savoring its lingering aroma.

"Who?" Xia Wenxue lifted her charming face.

"That Song Ziwen," Ren Feng came over, put down the milk tea, and helped tidy up.

Xia Wenxue didn't speak.

"What happened?" Ren Feng noticed her unusual reaction.

"Ren Feng, I'll tell you later. There's really nothing between him and me," Xia Wenxue's beautiful eyes seemed to let out a slight sigh.

"Hmm, I trust you," Ren Feng smiled slightly, then gently held Xia Wenxue's hand, "Because, you will eventually be mine."

Ren Feng embraced Xia Wenxue, enjoying the softness that made him reluctant to let go.

Xia Wenxue's heart fluttered again, looking at Ren Feng's smile, she was silent for a while before saying, "Ren Feng, are you serious?"

"I've always been serious," Ren Feng blinked.

"But usually, you seem a bit carefree, not very serious," Xia Wenxue said softly.

"You'll see in the future," Ren Feng smiled as he leaned closer.

But Xia Wenxue snapped awake, quickly standing up, "I'm going to take a shower first."

She realized she and Ren Feng were getting more entangled, becoming increasingly ambiguous, and could break through that barrier at any moment.

Xia Wenxue felt anxious inside, her delicate brows furrowed, then slowly relaxed again.

No, she still needed to keep some distance from Ren Feng.

...

The next day.

Someone still hidden under the covers was reluctant to wake up, while the sunlight outside had long been shining in.

Then, Ren Feng's phone ringtone went off again.

"Hi, good morning, this is Fusheng Tingyu. Recently, I only have two wishes each day: world peace — and a good meal. Don't let sleep become a stumbling block on the way to eating, get up quickly, dun-dun-dun-dun..."

Then, a hand reached out from under the covers, turning off the phone's ringtone.

Since returning to Huaxia, Ren Feng didn't get up unless he naturally woke up each day.

But only moments later, the ringtone started again.

"Hi, good morning, this is..."

"Damn it," Ren Feng roared as he crawled out from under the blanket, angrily answering the call, "Bastard, did you have Fire Phoenix remotely change my ringtone again?"

"Oh come on, Feng, don't be mad, that's my only hobby," came Chen Fenghuo's cheerful voice on the phone, "Calling you because there's something to report."

"What is it? Are you guys in trouble again? But that shouldn't be, as long as you avoid those tricky tasks, there should be no trouble."

Ren Feng started to get up.

"No, it's about Zijin Thorn. Haven't we already eliminated all her lurking forces, yet couldn't find her? But recently Catherine got intel about Zijin Thorn, it seems she's back in Huaxia."

Ren Feng's eyes narrowed, "She's back in Huaxia?"

Zijin Thorn is skilled in disguise, easily avoiding the Dragon Group, but isn't she being too bold?

"We can't be sure yet, we're just speculating," Chen Fenghuo chuckled on the other end.

"What's going on?" Ren Feng frowned and pursued the question.

"Here's the thing, Catherine is still investigating, she confirmed that Zijin Thorn went to the United States, but we have no people there, so we couldn't confirm who she contacted. As for Zijin Thorn, someone saw her at the San Francisco Airport."

Chen Fenghuo explained everything in one breath, and Ren Feng pondered; Zijin Thorn had always been a thorn in his side. He had been having Chen Fenghuo and the others look into her, and now, she supposedly returned to Huaxia?

Given Zijin Thorn's character, she wouldn't act rashly without assurance, so what is she assured of?

Ren Feng couldn't figure it out and could only say, "Have Catherine keep checking, let me know if there are any leads."

"Okay."

Chen Fenghuo hung up, and Ren Feng, still frowning, could only set it aside for now, but just then, the phone rang again.

This time it was Ye Ruobing.

...

Ye Ruobing arrived early.

The tasks entrusted to him by Ren Feng, he was determined to do well.

This was part of his charm and why the lone wolf valued him.

Early in the morning, he went to the Flying Snow Group and began checking the surveillance.

After finishing the inspections, Ye Ruobing, along with others, started to check Flying Snow Group's security and vulnerabilities, splitting up with Man Zhi and Yang Hong, each responsible for different floors.

Since the surveillance within Flying Snow Group wasn't yet complete, some places had blind spots, and it couldn't be perfected in just one day, so they could only check like this.

Just as he was about to enter the elevator, a slightly flustered employee rushed in.

"Wait, wait!"

Wang Hao rushed into the elevator, looking a bit agitated.

Ye Ruobing glanced at him, smiling as he said, "It's still early, why the hurry?"

Wang Hao, like a startled bird, was surprised, then forced a smile and said, "It's nothing, just that I didn't finish a case last night, so I wanted to get here early to finish it."
