C9 Support
The two bodyguards sat down nervously. I looked at Zhang Jian and he tactfully introduced me to the names of the two bodyguards.
The one sitting on the left side was called Zhou Hua, and he had been in the clubhouse for over three years. The tall one on the right was Wang An, who had worked at the clubhouse for five years.
Both of them were mercenaries before, and since they could not survive in the mercenary world, they came to the club to be their bodyguards. Although they had never seen the boss before, they still gave face to anyone they met here.
After all, after offending the bodyguards, there were many things they could do and many things they could choose not to do.
"Brother Tao, don't be so secretive, just tell us the reason why you called us here." Wang An asked, looking straight at me.
He might seem reckless for being so straightforward, but in reality, he knew what was going on.
After what happened, I found them to either seek revenge or have other motives.
So they pretend to be dumb and can't hide from me, so I might as well just say it out loud. I really can't do anything to them in such a short time.
It was no wonder he had been able to stay in the clubhouse for so long. I muttered to myself that such a person was more useful than I had expected.
After making up my mind, I handed them a cigarette with a chuckle. "I didn't intend to cause you any trouble."
"What's that?" Wang An looked at me suspiciously, as though he couldn't quite believe what I had said.
I smiled and shook my head. What happened that day was dangerous, but it wasn't their fault. Even if they really let me go, without that phone call, I believe that Han Xue would definitely have a way to make me obediently go back.
Under their increasingly heavy gazes, I indifferently said, "I want you to follow me."
"With you?" Zhou Hua stared blankly, then frowned: "Brother Tao, this doesn't follow the rules …"
"What is the rule?" I asked.
In the clubhouse, there had indeed never been anyone who tried to rope in bodyguards before, but that didn't mean that they couldn't.
As for the rules, if one really had to speak of them, Zhao Yi was a gangster that didn't follow the rules, but would everyone care?
After they looked at each other, Wang An said doubtfully, "Brother Tao, what do you want us two to do? Just say it."
"I'm not going to ask you to do anything." I lit a cigarette and leaned back on the sofa leisurely. "You are all old people who have been in the club for a long time. You should understand what I mean."
"Think about it, give me an answer, follow me, or... Be my enemy. "
After saying that, the spoon that I was playing with in my hand was bent and casually tossed onto the tea table. The crisp sound of the collision was particularly obvious in this quiet room.
Their eyes were glued to the spoon as they quietly watched it turn. In this minute, I think that in their hearts, they themselves were probably the same as the spoon that I broke.
I choose to submit, or I choose to follow this spoon... He was eliminated.
"When the bodyguards are in the clubhouse, they seem to always stand in a neutral position." Zhang Jian caressed his lower jaw and mumbled absentmindedly.
I frowned and looked suspiciously at Zhang Jian.
After all, the two of us can be considered to have both been prosperous and suffered losses at the same time. He wouldn't be so stupid as to dig a pit for himself and play with himself.
It's just that I don't quite understand what he's saying, or what he's trying to do.
As for Zhang Jian, although I trust him in my heart, I will still be on guard against him. After all, this isn't a novel. I can't be that foolish. If he were to tell me, he would wholeheartedly support me.
I wasn't the only one baffled by his words. Wang An and Zhou Hua also stared at him blankly.
Obviously, the two of them were clear that those words were clearly meant for them. However, it was Zhang Jian who said it. It was definitely not that simple.
Zhang Jian's brows furrowed even more. He suddenly raised his head and looked at me with such a serious expression that even I was a little scared.
"Brother Tao, I've always been curious about what kind of existence Sister Yuli is in the clubhouse." He asked, "If Sister Yulee wants to take care of a few bodyguards, do you think it will be successful?"
As he spoke, he constantly sized up Wang An and Zhou Hua with a playful, playful, and even expectant look in his eyes.
He was like a black baby who had found a good toy and played a good game.
I couldn't help but sneer. This guy was threatening me, he was so threatening that I didn't want to act arrogantly.
Looking at Wang An and Zhou Hua's uneasy expressions, I resisted the urge to burst into laughter and said, "I really want to know too. Why don't I ask Sister Li later?"
"Brother Tao, do you have to be so ruthless?" Wang An muttered with a gloomy face.
Feeling his displeased gaze, I felt my heart overturn. Displeasure, it means that the matter Zhang Jian was talking about, he was afraid or something that might have happened to him.
Since he had a weakness, he wasn't afraid of being unable to overcome it.
"I'm a bit more vengeful and a bit more cowardly." I contemptuously raised my eyebrows, not caring in the slightest about his angry stare. "The last time was not your fault, so I won't hold grudges against you. "But, at this point, I am truly afraid …"
He seriously sized them up before faintly spitting out two words, "Revenge."
"We brothers aren't like that." Zhou Hua quickly emphasized.
I didn't say anything. Since it's already this far, it should be Zhang Jian's turn to perform for the rest of the time.
I glanced at him and he tactfully nodded his head. He walked behind the sofa and placed a hand on one of the bodyguards' shoulders. "Brother, what you say is useless. Only honor and disgrace can make brother Tao feel at ease."
The so-called sharing of honor and disgrace didn't really have much of an impact on them, who were bodyguards. If I didn't get mixed up, there would be people talking behind my back.
On the surface, however, he didn't dare to confront the bodyguard openly.
They knew this very well.
It was also clear that if they did not cooperate, Yuli's identity would definitely be able to kick them out.
Of course, this was on the premise that I was so important to Julie. I can't promise that, but it doesn't matter.
What's important is that they think it's enough for Julie to do this for me.
After a short period of silence, Wang An and Zhou Hua looked at each other, and said word by word, "Brother Tao, in the future, we two brothers will be in your care."
I smiled and nodded. "We are brothers of our own. There is no need to be courteous."
Faced with their undisguised expressions, I knew they weren't sincere, but that didn't matter.
Knowing that you have achieved what I want, whether you are sincere or not, is not a very important thing to me.
My smile is quite kind. Since I've already forced them to lower their heads, there's no need for me to continue pressuring them.
After the miraculous reversal, there was no longer any trace of the previous threatening look on Zhang Jian's face. Instead, there was a smile on his face. He wrapped his arms around their necks and the two brothers happily muttered, "Brothers, we'll have to look at each other in the future."
Zhou Hua looked at Wang An's ashen face and forced a smile, "That's right, that's right."
Looking at them, I felt a sense of accomplishment.
The first time I saw them, in my heart, they were like black gods, cold and untouchable. But now, they have no choice but to submit to me.
Power, this was truly a good thing. I muttered to myself.
At that moment, my cell phone rang. It was a message from Julie.
I pressed the record button and was about to reply when I suddenly thought of something. I glanced at the three people present and decided to reply: Yes, is elder sister free?
A few seconds after sending it, Yullie replied: My brother is treating me, so if he doesn't have time, he has to make use of it.
And on her dialog box, it also displayed: Input now...
I'm near your room right now. You pack up and I'll be right over.
When I saw this message, the smile on my face couldn't be suppressed no matter how hard I tried.
This was much more timely than dozing off on a pillow!
I nod my head excitedly. Under the gazes of the three people, I walk into the bathroom to tidy up my clothes and hair.
In just a few minutes while I was in the bathroom, Zhang Jian had already started chatting with his two bodyguards.
Although there was still some dissatisfaction in Wang An's eyes, his complexion looked much better. Seeing this change, I subconsciously looked at Zhang Jian and muttered to myself, This person, he definitely has to be roped in.
"Brother Tao, are we going to eat together later?" Zhang Jian hurriedly asked when he saw me coming out.
I pretended to be conflicted as I frowned. "Logically speaking, I should be treating you guys to a meal today. However, I've already made an appointment with someone."
"Who's more important than us brothers who are here for a meal? Push it off!" Zhang Jian unhappily waved his hands and stared at me with an expression that said 'I don't know what I'm doing'.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door. Yuli stood outside and shouted, "Damn brat, open the door!"
This voice seemed to have produced a chemical reaction, the displeasure on Zhang Jian's face instantly disappeared. He looked at me in surprise and gave me a thumbs-up.
It made me feel rather embarrassed, but I didn't explain. I quickly opened the door and pulled Yullie's arm. "Sis, how did you get here so quickly?"
She glanced at the people in the room and looked at me in amusement, but didn't say anything.
Under her gaze, which wanted to see through me, I scratched my head with a coy smile. "Sis, wait a moment. After I change my shoes, we can leave."
I changed my shoes and followed Yulli to the entrance. Suddenly, I stopped and turned around to ask Zhang Jian and the rest, "How about you all come and eat with us?"
Yuli smiled back at them. "Mm. We're both Little Tao's brothers, aren't we?"
The way she coordinated with me shocked me a little, and Wang An and the rest even more so.
Even Zhang Jian looked as if he had seen a ghost.
Zhang Jian was stunned for a moment before he smiled and shook his head, "It's enough for us to find a place to eat. We won't disturb you two, brother and sister, to be alone."
"Yes, yes." Wang An nodded in agreement.
I smiled in satisfaction. "It's fine. I'll pay for how much you guys eat in a while."
I followed Julie out.
After leaving the room for a long time, I was still extremely pleased with Wang An's final look.
At the beginning, when he compromised, he was only trying to test the waters. However, the appearance of Yuli and her attitude towards me was the real reason why Wang An was terrified.
"Are you done laughing?" Yuli suddenly said.
The voice scared me and only then did I realize that the smile on the corner of my mouth was too obvious and I couldn't suppress it.
When I saw the faint smile on Yuri's face, I smiled in embarrassment, "Sis …" "Hehe, I've laughed enough. I've laughed enough."
She rolled her eyes gracefully and ignored me.
As for the reason why it was called 'elegantly rolling her eyes', it was because Yuli was originally a beauty, and after putting on makeup, she looked even more exquisite like a fake.
Such a beautiful woman, wearing a black evening dress, with her hair perfectly combed. Even if she rolled her eyes at such indecent movements, it was still impeccable.
