Just as Liu Xun finished speaking and was about to return to his rented apartment, a voice rang out: "It's so boring to eat barbecue alone, can you invite me to join you?"
"... "Liu Xun stopped and looked behind him curiously, then narrowed his eyes slightly.
This is a very ordinary yet extraordinary young man, about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, wearing a straight suit, with hairsprayed on, like the God of Gamblers, with long hair falling back, and a pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle.
"Sorry, I only have enough money for my own food! Besides, you and I don't know each other, why should I treat you to a meal?" Liu Xun shrugged and said truthfully.
"Why do we have to know each other before we meet? Since you have no money, it's the same for me to treat you! Eating is for food and clothing, not money." The young man's black hair, which was gelled with hairspray, looked extremely dazzling under the sunlight.
"Do you know me?" Liu Xun raised his eyebrows and asked.
"I don't know him." The young man smiled calmly and said truthfully.
"Then why did you invite me to dinner?" Liu Xun originally thought that the young man knew his identity, but now it seems... he really doesn't know.
"I've already said it, why do we have to know each other before we meet? It's just a meal, I can still afford it." The young man gave Liu Xun a very strange feeling, like a man wearing a suit and obviously looking like a rich man, but drinking whole mutton soup at a stall, anyone who saw it would find it strange.
"Hey, that's interesting! If you can get a good deal, you'd be a fool not to take advantage of it. Since you want to treat me, how about I have a meal?" Liu Xun felt more and more that the young man was not simple. It was an intuition in his heart, just like a real dragon meeting a phoenix, that kind of resonance between the supreme beings!
...
At the same time, Mu Qingchen's father, Mu Xingchen, came to the 100-meter-high building. When he saw Mu Qingchen's slightly red eyes, he frowned and asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong with you? Did you cry?"
"No, I just got water in my eyes accidentally when I was taking a shower." Mu Qingchen certainly couldn't tell anyone about the incident with Liu Xun, so he just said it casually.
"I heard from them that among those who came to apply for the bodyguard position this time, there is a young man who has mastered the secret skills passed down from his family. Who is that person? Have you seen him?"
Mu Xingchen did not continue to dwell on this topic. To put it bluntly, he came here for this matter! Although the Mu family is not one of the nine great families, and cannot compare with the nine great families, its foundation is not small!
They knew the future battle situation, so they wanted to win over some extraordinary people to protect themselves! The lies Liu Xun made up were told to Mu Xingchen by the man in black, so Mu Xingchen decided to take a look at Liu Xun. If possible... he would directly win over Liu Xun!
"I don't know. I haven't seen it." Upon hearing this, Mu Qingchen recalled what happened in the bathtub and a blush appeared on his cheeks.
Mu Xingchen narrowed his eyes slightly. No one knows a son better than his father. The change in Mu Qingchen's expression did not escape Mu Xingchen's eyes. He knew... his daughter must have met that man! And it is very likely... Mu Qingchen's tears were also because of that man.
Mu Qingchen has been a very strong woman since she was a child. No matter what happens, she will not shed tears! But why did she shed tears this time? Bath? Bathing
Thinking of this, Mu Xingchen could almost guess the whole thing. The Mu family had conservative rules, and this girl... must have been afraid that he would know about this, so she drove that person away, right
"Dad, why are you looking for that person? Isn't he just a bodyguard? If you can't find him, just find another one." Mu Qingchen changed the subject to hide his embarrassment.
"He is not an ordinary bodyguard. He can punch a weight of 500 kilograms. Can he be an ordinary person?" Mu Xingchen's words fell, and Mu Qingchen's face changed slightly. She also knew about the family's affairs, so...
"But it's okay. I've asked someone to check the surveillance. There are no blind spots in the surveillance here except for the bathing pool where you are bathing! We will definitely find that person." Mu Xingchen looked at Mu Qingchen's expression and said softly.
After he finished speaking, Mu Qingchen's face turned grim. Check the surveillance? Doesn't that mean that we can see Liu Xun entering the bathtub and then walking out of it? Although we can't see what happened in the bathtub, anyone can guess it, right
It took Liu Xun a full half an hour from the time he entered the bath to the time he came out. This half an hour... was enough to make people fantasize.
"Sure enough... has he entered the bath?" Mu Xingchen was already certain that Mu Qingchen's tears were definitely related to Liu Xun.
"... "Mu Qingchen did not speak and remained silent, but silence is sometimes equivalent to acquiescence! Mu Xingchen has not watched the surveillance yet, but he can stand in this position, which must be extraordinary, and he can infer some things.
Mu Xingchen has made up his mind. If Liu Xun is not worthy of the family's attention, he will kill Liu Xun to preserve Mu Qingchen's innocence! But on the contrary... if he is worthy of the family's attention, then it is not something Mu Xingchen can decide!
"Liu Fuchen... How come I have never heard of this name?" Mu Xingchen frowned as he recalled the information about Liu Xun that the man in black had told him.
...
Time passed quickly, and it was evening in the blink of an eye. The sky gradually darkened, and the stars and the crescent moon in the sky showed their heads, adding a touch of light to the dark starry sky.
"In fact, the night sky is very beautiful, just like this world, there is always a dark side, but there are always some people who... 'overestimate their own abilities'; want to fight for a ray of light in the darkness! Just like the stars in the sky, misty... and illusory, but indispensable!"
In a barbecue restaurant in Taipei, the young man sat opposite Liu Xun. At this moment, he was looking at the dark starry sky and sighing to himself.
Liu Xun smiled when he heard this, opened a bottle of beer and started drinking. After finishing it, he said, "Some people are destined to belong to darkness, but they are not necessarily dark! Just as you said just now, after midnight, the stars emit bright light! But in the daytime... no one will notice them!"
"Yes, that's why I said... they are very similar to this world!" The young man said this, looked at Liu Xun, and then said: "I don't know your name yet?"
"Before asking someone's name, shouldn't you tell them your own first? This is a basic principle of how to behave." Liu Xun raised his eyebrows and said softly.
"Lin Shichen!" the young man said, and after opening a bottle of beer, he opened another bottle, and then another bottle, and finally opened a whole box of beer, and then said: "You are right, I should have given my name before asking you, I was wrong this time, I will punish myself with a box of beer."
"..." Liu Xun looked at Lin Shichen in surprise. He was surprised for two reasons. One was the man's drinking capacity and courage, and the other was... his name! (To be continued)
