Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Gu Qingchen pretended that nothing had happened just now. She stood straight and looked at the mercenaries, not daring to look at Rong Yu.
Rong Yu’s words were too provocative. Back then, she was only attracted by Rong Yu’s striking looks. But recently, every time she looked at Rong Yu, her heart would beat faster without any reason.
If Rong Yu said something more meaningful, she would not be able to control herself.
“Are you the mercenaries that chasing us?” Gu Qingchen looked at these people carefully. At the same time, she was also wondering what Rong Yu meant by bringing these people here.
These people did not make a sound. She did not know if they did not understand Gu Qingchen’s words or if they did not want to answer.
Immediately, a man with a soft whip in his hand and an evil-looking face laughed with bloodlust, “Oh, it seems you still haven’t learned your lesson in these two days. Do you still want to return to the furnace and train for a few more days?”
The person who spoke was Rong Yu’s subordinate, codenamed Bobcat. He was very good at punishment. As expected, as soon as Bobcat finished speaking, the mercenaries’ eyes revealed a look of panic. The leader hurriedly used his broken Chinese to say, “Yes. We are the mercenaries.”
Initially, these mercenaries looked very fierce, but as soon as they spoke in broken Chinese, there was a sense of dissonance, making them want to laugh.
However, as soon as the leader finished speaking, he was whipped by the soft whip in Bobcat’s hand. “How can you talk to your own master like this? Where is your manner?”
Pfft!
If it wasn’t for the wrong occasion, Gu Qingchen would definitely laugh out loud. Talking about manners with a bunch of mercenaries who killed without blinking. Bobcat was really… special.
However, Gu Qingchen didn’t ignore Bobcat’s words. Since when had she become the master of these mercenaries.
“Master, we were wrong. We won’t dare to do it again!”
The leader of the mercenaries had a ferocious look on his face. It wasn’t because he was unconvinced but because he was in pain from being whipped.
Bobcat put away the whip in satisfaction and looked at Gu Qingchen. He licked his paws as he pondered.
“I really don’t see what’s so special about this girl. She actually made Boss pay so much attention to her. The reason why I had to train these mercenaries is that she could use them as her hitmen. Qingzhu even made a fuss and told me not to offend her. Humph, it doesn’t seem to be a big deal.”
When Bobcat was looking for Rong Yu, he was in charge of flying the plane, so it didn’t officially meet Gu Qingchen. When he went back and heard Qingzhu and the others talking about Gu Qingchen, he only felt that Qingzhu and the others were a little alarmist.
But he didn’t expect to receive a notice from his boss, Rong Yu, telling him not to kill those mercenaries and to train them well. After that, he would give them to Gu Qingchen. Hence, Bobcat was interested in Gu Qingchen.
Gu Qingchen was quite capable. She got his boss to order him to train a few mercenaries who were not up to par!
What shocked him the most was that he saw his boss kissing the little girl’s forehead. Although Rong Yu only kissed Gu Qingchen’s forehead, Bobcat felt like he had seen a miracle, and it was hard to believe that it was real.
His boss had really kissed that girl! How was that possible!
Bobcat’s shock was reasonable. Rong Yu had never been close to women and had severe mysophobia. When Bobcat was looking for Rong Yu the other day, he did not see Gu Qingchen and Rong Yu being so intimate. So when Bobcat saw this sudden kiss, it was a little hard to accept.
Gu Qingchen quickly read these things from Bobcat’s mind. She could not help but feel her heart skip a few beats.
Rong Yu… why did he do this?
Gu Qingchen looked at the calm Rong Yu, and Rong Yu’s dark eyes could not read any information.
“Are these mercenaries a surprise?”
Gu Qingchen was still a little surprised. Rong Yu smiled, “I wanted to get rid of them directly, but I thought maybe we should keep them. Maybe they will be more useful to you.”
Rong Yu did not think much of these mercenaries because he had a more elite team. However, Gu Qingchen was different. He could see the path Gu Qingchen was going to take, so he thought of keeping these mercenaries to protect Gu Qingchen’s safety.
Gu Qingchen thought for a while and then looked at the mercenaries, thinking about Rong Yu’s words.
She finally understood that Rong Yu was giving her a gift. Although she wanted to make a name for herself, she needed not only connections but also talents.
This was also why she chose to study at Hongfeng. However, it was not enough to only have entrepreneurs; she needed some unique talents for special occasions.
For example… these mercenaries.
She could resolve many troubles with these mercenaries.
In the future, even if someone was plotting against her, she could at least guarantee her safety.
Gu Qingchen was moved.
However…
There was still one more question. Were these mercenaries willing to serve her?
If these people betrayed her, it would be equivalent to placing a time bomb by her side.
Rong Yu seemed to see Gu Qingchen’s worry. He continued, “Since these mercenaries have been trained by Bobcat, they will not have any thoughts of betrayal. You can rest assured about this.”
Bobcat quickly said, “That’s right. None of the living people trained by me will betray their master.”
“Hehe, because those who have thoughts of betrayal will die on the spot! The drug developed by the research institute was definitely the best. The drug would immediately take effect if someone had thoughts of betrayal. Modern technology is really awesome!”
Gu Qingchen was shocked. Those research institutes could actually develop such a drug? It was too terrifying!
For a moment, Gu Qingchen felt a trace of fear. She did not expect the research institute had already developed such a drug. What exactly was the drug that she was injected with?
No way!
She had to find out the secret of her body. Otherwise, she would never feel safe.
“Thank you. I like this surprise very much.”
Gu Qingchen was never a pretentious person. She needed people like mercenaries by her side, so she naturally would not refuse.
“It’s good that you like it. Bobcat, hand them over to Doctor Gu. You can go back now.”
Rong Yu said lightly and directly sent the Bobcat away. Bobcat was stunned for a moment and suddenly felt like she had crossed the river and burned the bridge.
He wanted to observe Gu Qingchen and see how Gu Qingchen could subdue these mercenaries. After all, although these mercenaries had been controlled, it was still challenging to get them to serve Gu Qingchen sincerely.
In the end, his boss sent him away, and he was a little dispirited.
“Boss, although these people have been trained, I think it’s safer for me to stay here. How about I stay a little longer?”
Bobcat’s fawning tone and expression made the mercenaries dumbfounded.
Wasn’t Rong Yu just a cripple? Why could a devil-like Bobcat use such a low profile to curry favor?
It was too refreshing!
