Chapter 284: Chapter 232: Special Effects, Liu Qian’s Request (Please Subscribe!)_3
This had only amplified the enigma of Tang Qing, leaving his mind bewildered.
"Oh? Is the place uncle is visiting overseas not safe?" Tang Qing asked questioningly. Obviously, his Uncle Ken must have let something slip, but it was a minor matter anyway. Revealing it would only deepen his mystery, and thus it was nothing to worry about.
Liu Qian shook his head and replied, "Not at all. I’m not going to a war-torn country. Rather, I’m going to the United States and any dangerous tasks wouldn’t require my involvement. I’m merely there for a business meeting with a friend. Although it is a relatively peaceful place, the fact that it is not gun-free has to be taken into consideration."
Tang Qing contemplated for a moment and replied, "Alright then. I’ll go back and inquire. I’ll give you a response by tonight at the latest, but I don’t foresee any problems." It was just a bodyguard, after all. If it was on loan, then so be it. Besides, real threats to his Uncle Ken had mostly been dispatched to heaven by the group of fighters anyway.
Moreover, with the covert protection from two fighters, no one could harm his Uncle Ken. Since Liu Qian had made a request, Tang Qing had to oblige. Otherwise, what were all those people falling over themselves to please him for? To be there to lend a hand in times of need, wasn’t that the whole point?
On hearing this, Liu Qian happily replied, "Good, then I must trouble you." He had already discussed this matter with Tang Kai. It would seem too presumptuous if he had gone straight to Tang Qing himself. Therefore, first, he had gotten Tang Kai’s consent before approaching Tang Qing. Should Tang Qing agree, it was well and good; if not, it wasn’t a problem either. The situation had to be comfortable for everyone involved.
Tang Qing chuckled and said, "No problem. It’s not particularly dangerous. Plus, they are offering money. I believe my friend will be quite pleased too, haha...".
"Money is a small issue. I will give 2 million RMB for two weeks, how does that sound? Accommodation and transportation are on me, as long as your friend doesn’t find it too little." Liu Qian said.
"That... should work. I’ll assure my friend about this remuneration for now," Tang Qing said, unconcerned with the exact amount.
Although two million RMB for two weeks of bodyguard service seemed a lot, Tang Qing had no intention of making his men earn a living this way. These exceptionally powerful and extraordinary fighters were better used by himself.
The two of them carried on with their intermittent conversation.
After settling the finances, Tang Qing took his leave. Neither Liu Qian nor he had much free time.
After storing all the money in the safe, Liu Qian went to the top floor of the villa to enjoy the distant sights. Monkey, who was standing behind him, seemed slightly excited.
"Monkey, this is all I can do to help you," Liu Qian began unexpectedly. He had noticed Monkey’s industrious training, day and night, but the gap between Monkey and the fighter who had defeated him was still monumental and seemingly insurmountable. Although Monkey was steadfast, the towering mountain ahead hardly left him unshaken.
This is why the idea of lending a bodyguard emerged. Firstly, Liu Qian hoped Monkey could understand his limitations, and secondly, he hoped that the bodyguard could teach Monkey some tactics. The goal was not necessarily to reach the absurdly high level but to also prevent crushing defeats. 𝚗ov𝚙𝚞𝚋.c𝚘m
"Thank you, Brother Liu." Monkey thanked him solemnly, his eyes filled with fervor.
As someone who practiced martial arts, his pursuit of power was virtually endless. With the big mountain in sight, he was compelled to strive harder. A few days ago, he had remembered the feeling he had when he saw Tang Qing in Province City. From the few times they met, he observed that Tang Qing undoubtedly possessed great strength. His steps, breathing, gaze, movements - several aspects unintentionally exuded the aura of a practitioner. If Tang Qing could learn it, then he too had a chance to master it.
