Bodyguard of the Goddess

Pearl Suburbs. A two-story small bungalow. The room was pitch black, except for the faint candlelight flickering in a bedroom on the second floor. It was as dark and terrifying as hell. Don't let people get close.

At nine o'clock at night, two cars drove slowly from the east and west respectively, and stopped at the door of the small bungalow. Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man got out of the car coming from the east. He has a neat suit and shiny leather shoes, making him look like a social elite. He wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his tall nose, highlighting his gentle and elegant temperament.

This person was none other than Li Mubai, the second eldest son of the Zhao family, a military advisor of the Zhao family who was highly favored by Master Zhao. He was also the only adopted son of the Zhao family who had not had a direct conflict with Xiao Zheng.

Speaking of which, on the first night after Zhao Qingyun returned to China, he fought with Xiao Zheng at Fourth Master Zhao's birthday party and fell into Xiao Zheng's hands in public. It can be said that he has lost all face and his vigor has plummeted. After that, he never appeared in the public eye again. He just ate and drank tea with Fourth Master Zhao every day, living a boring life that was unrestrained but somewhat old-fashioned.

Chen Chong, the boss of the Zhao family, also had a head-on conflict with Xiao Zheng by chance, and was seriously injured by Xiao Zheng and was hospitalized. He has not yet been discharged. And even if the injury is healed, there will probably be sequelae. After all, Xiao Zheng was showing mercy if he didn't kill him in that beating.

Except for Zhao Laosan, who died early, only Li Mubai, the remaining three sons of the Zhao family, could still live in peace with Xiao Zheng in terms of face. Only he understood that if he had trouble with Xiao Zheng in front of Fourth Master Zhao, he would not end well in the end.

Who made the old man like Xiao Zheng? Who made the old man want to choose him as his successor?

Li Mubai's eyes flashed with a hint of resentment, even viciousness!

Why did the old man choose Xiao Zhengzheng as the heir to the Zhao family? What's so good about Xiao Zheng? In terms of martial arts, he is indeed very good, but does he rely on martial arts to control the overall situation? It’s all about wisdom!

Li Mubai has been a member of the Zhao family for many years. As early as five years ago, his hair had turned gray. Now every once in a while, he must dye his hair. Otherwise, the hair that has invaded most of his head will sprout like mushrooms after a spring rain. Coming roaring.

boom!

Li Mubai had no expression on his face, but he slammed the car door tightly to vent the anger in his heart.

When he got out of the car and walked towards the main entrance of the small western-style building, his eyes slowly fell on the motionless car hidden in the darkness. The car that arrived at the small mansion at the same time as him.

Li Mubai knew that he must be the one to show up this time, and the other party was determined not to appear on such an occasion. It is also inconsistent with his identity and position.

Creak.

Li Mubai opened the door of the villa, only to feel a cold and rotten smell rushing towards him, as if it was going to freeze his whole body in this hot summer. Heartfeltly cold.

The room was dark, but Li Mubai didn't ask to turn on the light. He knew that the people living in the villa were a group of men who were accustomed to darkness and did not yearn for light. As a guest, he did not need the host to accommodate him. Even if he opens his mouth, the other person will definitely turn on the light for him.

This is the main reason why Li Mubai can have a place in the talented Zhao family. He is smart enough and willing to think from the perspective of others, even if in the end, all his calculations serve his own interests. But in the eyes of many people, he is still a good old man of the Zhao family. The only existence that is not so gangster.

He slowly climbed up to the second floor and walked to the only room with light by the faint candlelight. He didn't knock on the door because the owner of the room didn't close the door, which meant that he was welcome. But when he entered the room, he couldn't help but be frightened by the layout.

Two candles in the room were placed on a makeshift altar.

There were incense, chickens and ducks on the altar, and a black and white photo. A young man with a tall and straight body and a shaved head was staring at the photo calmly, his face cold and cold. There was a strong sense of oppression all over his body.

Li Mubai did not know the person in the photo, but he believed that the young man had a close relationship with the man in the photo, otherwise the photos and incense would not have been offered at this temporary settlement.

"He's my brother."

The young man stared at the photo intently and said calmly: "My only biological brother."

Li Mubai was slightly stunned, wondering why this young man who was well-known in the industry said these words to him that had nothing to do with the mission.

"How did he die?" Li Mubai asked with concern as a courtesy.

"Killed by Xiao Zheng." A sharp look flashed in the young man's eyes. "Crucially slit the throat."

"When did it happen?" Li Mubai asked in surprise.

He remembered that there was a kidnapping case in Xinao before, and the criminal was shot dead on the spot after his attempted murder failed. Could it be that the murderer was Xiao Zheng?

"Just a few days ago." The young man lit a cigarette and took a deep breath. "He should have gone abroad with me. Even if he did nothing, his life would not have been so short-lived."

"Why doesn't he leave with you?" Li Mubai asked.

"He likes power, and he has liked it since he was a child. He doesn't want to live a precarious life without me. He yearns for a life of wealth and luxury, and wants to rely on his own efforts to become a respected and successful person." The young man puffed out a puff of smoke. , said with calm eyes. "But he doesn't know that everyone's life is actually doomed. In some aspects, he is an expert and a master. But in other aspects, he may not even be as good as a rookie."

"That's why he was killed." The young man put out his cigarette.

"Is this why you want to kill Xiao Zheng?" Li Mubai asked.

"Otherwise? For your one million US dollars?" The young man turned around slowly, his light gray eyes showing no emotion. "In many countries, I'm paid five million for a mission."

Li Mubai said with shame: "Maybe in Mingzhu, we haven't regulated the market yet."

The young man didn't say anything. He just walked slowly to the sofa and sat down with a calm expression: "Is everything arranged?"

"Yes. Action tonight. We will fully cooperate." Li Mubai said in detail. "Complete the mission and we will send you away overnight. There will be no worries."

"It seems that you don't understand our industry." The young man shook his head lightly and said with an indifferent expression. "We never consider retreat until the mission is completed."

"Why?" Li Mubai is a methodical man. As the Zhao family's military advisor, he has long been accustomed to calculating all possibilities and taking corresponding measures.

"When you have a retreat, you don't dare to rush forward. Only in desperate situations can people reach their greatest potential. Only when the retreat is cut off can a bloody path be found. This is what I learned in the army. It is also what I have learned over the years. The core idea of ​​​​doing the task." The young man said calmly.

Li Mubai nodded and agreed: "This idea is very good, maybe I can use it in the future."

"It will definitely come in handy." The young man said slowly. "Maybe it will come in handy soon."
