At least, it was like this when he left the assassination world. The bull in front of him was a friend, not because Xu Taiping had saved him before, but because he had also helped Xu Taiping, and that biological genius was also a friend of Xu Taiping, but that friend Xu Taiping didn't want to see him unless he was forced to.

The Niu Lang knew that Xu Taiping was the blood wolf, but Xu Taiping wasn't worried about him revealing his identity. Similarly, that biological genius also knew that Xu Taiping was the blood wolf, but he also wouldn't reveal Xu Taiping's identity.

In addition, the Nightingale could also be considered Xu Taiping's friend, but their relationship wasn't as close as Xu Taiping's relationship with Niu Lang and that abnormal genius.

After a night of silence, when old friends met, it was nothing more than drinking and having fun.

If Xu Taiping was willing to stay in Hong Kong for a day, he would be able to see the position of the Cowherd in Xu Taiping's heart. Otherwise, he could have gone straight to the deep city and then flown directly to Jiang Yuan from there.

There was no need to elaborate any further on the topic of drinking wine and having fun. Early the next morning, Xu Taiping bid farewell to the Cowherd and took the first flight to Jiangyuan City.

The Niu Lang didn't take the initiative like he did last night. In the end, Xu Taiping was not a flamboyant person, so he only asked the Niu Lang to drive him to the airport.

The plane reached Jiangyuan City in two hours.

It had only been a day's time from the war in Plum Blossom to the peace and tranquility in Jiang Yuan City, Xu Taiping suddenly thought of this sentence.

"You were not born in a time of peace. You were born in a peaceful country."

You may not feel anything when you read this sentence, but you will understand how precious it is when you have experienced the war yourself.

Xu Taiping wasn't a very patriotic young man, but he had roamed the world for many years and had seen too many wars that had left him traumatized. His understanding of countries far surpassed that of ordinary people.

However, Xu Taiping did not like the fact that war happened in his own country. He did not want to see so many beautiful things become free from worry because of war, such as Jiangyuan University, Jiangyuan City's skyscrapers, buildings, and those other beautiful girls.

Since the Mid-Autumn Festival had already passed and Xu Taiping had not eaten any mooncakes, he did not have much impression of it. Now that he had disembarked from the plane, a sudden gust of cold wind made him realize that it was already late autumn, and even Jiangyuan University was about to have their holidays.

Unknowingly, an entire semester had passed since he had started his career in August.

Xu Taiping tightened his clothes and took a taxi to Jiangyuan University.

The taxi stopped in front of Jiangyuan University. Xu Taiping got out of the taxi, carried his luggage and walked into the security room by the entrance.

There weren't many people in the guardhouse. Xu Taiping was a bit surprised, although this wasn't the time to be going to and from school, there had to be people in the guardhouse.

Right at this moment, someone walked in from outside the guard room. That person had a rather worried look on his face, and upon entering, he hadn't noticed Xu Taiping at all.

"Where did everyone go?" Xu Taiping asked.

When that person suddenly heard Xu Taiping's voice, he jumped in fright before fiercely looking at him and crying out emotionally, "Chairman Xu, you, you've come back to pull me!"

"You're back. What happened to you? Why are you looking so listless?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Director Xu, hurry, hurry and go to the city's medical institute!" the man called.

"What for?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Today is the competition for the security system in Jiangyuan City. Our people have already lost two consecutive rounds. It's lunchtime now and there's still the third round in the afternoon. Director Xu, hurry up. We might still win this time!" the man shouted.

"The Security System Competition?" What is this? " Xu Taiping frowned and asked.

"I don't know either. It's just an activity organized by the committee." The man shook his head.

"And everyone went to watch the competition?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Yeah, everyone went to take a look and then returned to work in turns. Isn't this the afternoon shift?!" the man replied.

"Help me look after my luggage." Xu Taiping walked out of the guard room.

When the security guard saw Xu Taiping leave, he quickly took out his phone and called his colleague who was in the hospital.

"Director Xu is back!"

Half an hour later, the taxi with Xu Taiping stopped at the entrance of the body building.

Xu Taiping got off the car and saw the banner hanging at the entrance of the Institute.

Warmly celebrate the success of the first city security system competition held in our hospital!

Xu Taiping hurried into the hospital. As soon as he entered, he saw Chen Wen.

"Director Xu, over here!" Chen Wen waved excitedly at Xu Taiping.

Xu Taiping walked up to Chen Wen and said, "What's going on?"

According to the documents sent by the body committee the day before yesterday, there will be a city security system martial arts competition. As long as there is a security department, everyone can send someone to participate in it, a total of three people will be selected to fight with the security department of other units. Chen Wen said.

"Why did you think of setting up such a martial arts competition?" Xu Taiping frowned and asked.

"I don't know, but I think it's related to a big meeting next month." Chen Wen said in a low voice.

"The big meeting next month?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise, "What meeting?"

"It's the Xiangshan Economic Summit. It's said that next month, a large economic summit will be held in Xiangshan area of Jiangyuan City. At that time, many business leaders and government officials will come to participate in the summit. When that happens, the entire Jiangyuan City will have to do very strict security work. I think, they might be selecting some experts for that security operation?" Chen Wen said.

"It's possible." Xu Taiping nodded and said, "This kind of large-scale meeting has always been very stressful, and it can't just be done by one security company. It's very likely that the government is selecting the security team for next month's Xiangshan Economic Summit through this martial arts competition."

"This is a rare opportunity. If one is able to stand out amongst the city's security forces, the positive publicity effects would be astounding, and it's also said that the government would even give them a certain amount of subsidies. Director Xu, right now, even the secretary and Principal Xu are inside. Let's go in and discuss this with them!" Chen Wen said.

"Let's go!" Xu Taiping walked into the building with Chen Wen as they talked.

Because it was lunch break, most of the security guards were in the dining hall. Some were eating, some were chatting, and some were resting.

The three contestants from Jiangyuan University were sitting in a corner. Xu Youdao and Lian Tianhuo were also sitting together with them. Both of them would occasionally look towards the entrance of the cafeteria as if they were waiting for someone.

When Xu Taiping and Chen Wen walked into the cafeteria together, both of them stood up excitedly, walking towards Xu Taiping at the same time.

"You finally came back in time!" Xu Youdao firmly gripped Xu Taiping's hand and said, "Now we only have one person left. If you don't come back, we will definitely lose!"

"Didn't you let Old Zhao go?" Xu Taiping asked.

"Old Zhao? What for? As a cleaner, what can he do? " Chen Wen asked doubtfully.

"That's true!" Xu Taiping suddenly came back to his senses. He was the only one in the security department of Jiangyuan University who knew about what had happened. No one else knew.

"It's a peaceful afternoon. We all know that you can fight. Even if you can't win three in a row, you still have to win one or two matches to save some face for our Jiangyuan University!" Xu Youdao said excitedly.

"Who are you guys fighting against?" Xu Taiping asked.

"It's from the Guardian Department of Jinyi High School." Chen Wen said.

"Jinyi High School?" Xu Taiping froze for a moment, and then said, "That high school called 'Scoundrel's Warm Bed'? That school actually had a security department? "Is it the students from that school who are under the administration of the Ministry of Defence?"

"Those people from the Guardian Department are all fierce, it looks like they are from the underworld. They are not really good at fighting, but just looking at them, we are all afraid. When they are fighting, we are all tied down, afraid that there will be retaliation!" A security guard participating in the competition said.

"Looks like a security guard from the underworld? "Haha, interesting." Xu Taiping smiled, saying, "I'll be taking part in the afternoon's competition. Principal Xu, you go take care of the staff changes."

"Alright, that's not a problem. I already said that our contestants should have diarrhea, so it should be possible to change it!" "Since your identity is there, you are just a security guard. It's impossible for you to fake it." Xu Youdao said.

Be at ease, no matter now, or in the future, if you meet someone who looks like a gangster, you don't have to be afraid. Just do whatever you need to do, we are the security of the school, even if the murderer comes to our school, he should still do it. No matter what, with me as your backer, and the school as your backer, if anyone dares to take revenge on you, I'll go with the school and deal with them. Xu Taiping said in a serious tone.

"Understood!" Everyone responded in unison.

"Ha ha-ha, you're even using me as a shield! I'm dying from laughter! Ha ha-ha ha!"

Just at this moment, Xu Taiping and the rest heard a wild laughter. The laughter was not concealed at all, and it caused everyone in the canteen to focus their attention on them.

Xu Taiping turned around and saw the laughing man sitting not more than two meters away from him. He was wearing a work vest and there was a huge tattoo of Second Master Guan on his back. He looked very scary, very scary.
