Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 111 Be the Bodyguards

Things go on as expected by Gao Ge.

After Liu Rui comes to himself subsequent to the vanishing of the anesthetic effect, Liu Dan, who learns about what happened from his son, gets out of the ward quickly.

Seeing Gao Ge and his friends sitting at the door, he puts on an unusual look.

“Mr. Liu, please take a seat first.” Gao Ge says calmly.

Liu Dan agrees and then sits down next to Gao Ge.

“Sorry about the ridiculous fuss today.” Liu Dan says, “What’s your name?”

“Gao Ge.” Gao Ge says, and then asks curiously, “How do you know I did ridicule that?”

Xia Lu is speechless.

So is Shen Mo.

Can Gao Ge just talk like a normal person?

Even Liu Dan, who has gone through a lot of ups and downs, is shocked and flurried.

Wow...

It’s so difficult to talk with this brat...

He coughs for a while to cover his embarrassment.

After quite a while, he finally calms down. He looks at Gao Ge with his eyes narrowed, saying, “I heard from Liu Rui about what happened before. I must thank you for saving his life.”

Gao Ge grins, “You’re welcome. Will you pay us more?”

Liu Dan is surprised.

What a blunt boy!

“Sure.” Saying that, Liu Dan writes another cheque and passes it to Gao Ge.

Gao Ge takes it and has a look. He is surprised indeed.

“Ten million?” Gao Ge is dumbfounded, “Mr. Liu, I know you are rich. Yet, you are being too generous.”

Even if Gao Ge is a moneygrubber, he can’t help feeling greatly amazed now.

“This is not merely to thank you.” Liu Dan cuts to the point, “I also want to hire you two as the bodyguards of my son to keep him being protected for some time. It won’t be long. This is the remuneration.”

Gao Ge takes a tumble and looks Xia Lu in the eye. They smile at each other.

They were considering how they could stay there to keep an eye on Liu Rui.

Out of surprise, Liu Dan gives them such a good opportunity.

What’s even better, he pays them!

“Okay. I’m in!” Gao Ge says directly.

As to the benefit given by others, Gao Ge will never say no to it.

Seeing that Gao Ge agrees so easily, Liu Dan is quite relieved.

“I thought cultivators like you were all bad-tempered, particular and arrogant.” Liu Dan says smilingly.

Gao Ge is a bit surprised.

Liu Dan says with a grin, “Cultivators... It is not supposed to be a secret now, is it?”

Gao Ge laughs with a relief.

“Mr. Liu, may I ask you a question?” Xia Lu suddenly says.

Liu Dan looks at her and nods his head, says with smile, “It’s okay. Please ask.”

Xia Lu asks, “What’s the grudge between your son and Mo Ran?”

Xia Lu just finishes asking.

Liu Dan puts on a complex face instantly.

It’s a mixed look of embarrassment, nervousness, uneasiness and anger.

“Can’t you tell us?” Xia Lu asks.

Liu Dan takes a deep breath, saying, “Is this question important?”

“Since you want us to protect your son, aren’t you supposed to brief us about what has happened?” Xia Lu says with a sneer, “Mr. Liu, anything wrong with what I said?”

Liu Dan finally withdraws the smile on his face.

He looks a bit less annoying.

Although Liu Dan was smiling all the time, Gao Ge finds his smile a bit rigid, which is only a habit.

Now Liu Dan looks more like a normal person.

“It’s a long story. It’s not that I don’t want to talk about it but that it’s not the right time to say for now. I will tell you the whole story after the man is captured.” Liu Dan says.

Xia Lu doesn’t insist.

After Liu Dan enters the ward, Xia Lu says to Gao Ge, “It seems that the truth hidden behind is too embarrassing for him to mention!”

“It’s not important.” Shen Mo suddenly stands up and says, “Our task is to catch the man with the sword but not to find out the truth. Please don’t put the cart before the horse!”

“Put the cart before the horse? Your vocabulary is less than the man’s.” Gao Ge says aloofly, “Don’t you think the truth is important?”

“Our task is...”

“Enough. I am the leader for the action. I am the decision-maker. If you are not happy about it, you can go to report to Tang Jiusi at once.” Gao Ge says impatiently.

Faced with his enemy, he always has no patience.

From the very beginning, Shen Mo has been his enemy all the time.

Under such circumstance, he will never show any kindness for Shen Mo. After all, regardless of his attitude, their hostile relationship won’t get any better.

Hearing what Gao Ge said, Shen Mo narrows his eyes. It seems that he didn’t expect Gao Ge was so blunt.

He thinks for a second, saying, “Leader, we ask to stay here with you just for fear that the target will get away again if he comes.”

Gao Ge becomes sulky, “I know what you are thinking about.”

Shen Mo is a bit stunned.

What is he thinking about?

Gao Ge sneers, “You just want to split the ten million with me, right?”

Shen Mo feels like cursing him.

Is everyone a moneygrubber like Gao Ge?

He takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

He is afraid that he may not be able to hold in his anger to kick Gao Ge away.

He spends quite some efforts in calming himself down. Then he says with a smile, “You can rest assured that I won’t split the ten million.”

Gao Ge is finally relieved.

Shen Mo becomes more upset.

“In this case, it won’t be any problem then. You can stay here as you want.” After saying that, Gao Ge gets up and walks into the advanced ward with Xia Lu.

When the door of the ward is closed, Shen Mo finally becomes extremely grim.

“Shen, Gao Ge is such an asshole!” Wang Zhe says with grievance.

Shen Mo looks at him coldly, asking, “Why didn’t you say that while he was here?”

Wang Zhe gets so awkward with a red face.

In the ward, Liu Rui becomes quite excited upon seeing Gao Ge and Xia Lu.

“Brother and Sister-in-law, you are here too?”

Gao Ge is so annoyed at the moment.

He feels quite unhappy with Liu Rui’s calling him. After all, they are not close.

Xia Lu is irritated too.

Why did Liu Rui call her Sister-in-law?

“Brother and Sister-in-law, I failed to recognize you in the bar. Please forgive me!” Liu Rui continues saying.

After all, he is smart enough to recognize the situation.

Gao Ge and Xia Lu fought with Mo Ran before, from which he has known that they are truly capable.

His life must rely on them two.

“I have other things to handle in the company. I’ll leave first. You just rest in hospital.” Liu Dan suddenly says.

Liu Rui is poker-faced, as if he has been used to his dad’s words.

“Our son is so badly injured. How come you are still thinking about your company...” The woman sitting at the bedside says unhappily.

“If we lose the company, you and our son will become dirt-poor!” Liu Dan says furiously, “Now if you must throw away your bags and clothes, can you do that?”

The woman hurries to be silent.

It seems that she just makes a complaint randomly.

“Hmm.” Liu Dan snorts and then smiles at Gao Ge and Xia Lu, “Gentleman and lady, I’ll leave my son’s safety to your hands for now.”

By far, he hasn’t asked about the name of Gao Ge and Xia Lu.

However, he dares to place his son’s safety in their hands. Gao Ge wonders whether he is courageous or too silly.
