The Beautiful CEO’s Close Bodyguard

She paused, turned her head to Feng Luo and instructed, "I’ll spare your life for now, but be careful next time."

Liu Li raised her hand to signal the people holding Feng Luo to release her, and shouted, "Let’s go!"

She turned around and looked at Chu Ge again, with a mix of inexplicable emotions in her eyes, "Chu Ge, be careful too, don’t let me run into you again."

A large group of people left in a mighty procession.

The surrounding onlookers, seeing there was nothing more to watch, also dispersed one after another.

Feng Luo walked over to the Old Gang Leader, feeling very frustrated, and said, "Why did you all come over?"

"It’s a good thing we did!" The Old Gang Leader looked at Feng Luo with a helpless expression, "Of all people, why did you have to run into her again?"

Feng Luo felt wronged, "This time I didn’t go looking for trouble, she came to me. Everyone saw it, isn’t that right, folks!"

"That’s right, Princess Liu Li came of her own accord. We were having fun, and she suddenly appeared and bumped into Feng Luo, yet said it was Feng Luo who bumped into her!"

"Exactly, I’ve never seen someone so shameless! Talking nonsense with open eyes."

The two speakers were friends Feng Luo made at the academy. Although she only attended for one day, they often sought Feng Luo’s help when they didn’t understand something, and over time, they became good friends.

The Old Gang Leader snorted sullenly, "If she hadn’t suffered a loss from you last time, would she come looking for trouble with you again this time?"

Feng Luo pouted, "Last time wasn’t my fault either; she was bullying others, and I just couldn’t stand it and stood up for justice."

"Oh dear, standing up for justice, huh? Almost got yourself stood up for today. You really need to change this bad habit, or you’ll surely suffer in the barracks."

The Old Gang Leader had a love-hate relationship with Feng Luo. This little girl seemed to be sent by Heaven to torment them! A typical troublemaker!

"Anyway, you should at least consider her status as a princess. If you gave her some face, would she target you so relentlessly? We’re common folk, how can we fight against the powerful?"

"Yes, yes, Old Gang Leader, you’re right. Feng Luo knows she’s wrong. Rest assured, next time I’ll give her enough face; if she says one, I definitely won’t say two!"

The Old Gang Leader saw her mischievous look, and his anger vanished, "I’m not saying you should listen to her entirely. You wouldn’t really die just because she told you to, right? I’m just giving an example. Of course, if anything happens, I’ll back you up!"

Feng Luo affectionately hooked her arm around the Old Gang Leader’s, chuckled, and said, "I knew the Old Gang Leader spoils me the most!"

"Hmph, as you should! Last night you even fought me for beggar’s chicken!" He was still thinking about Feng Luo snatching his drumstick!

Feng Luo was already familiar with the Old Gang Leader’s stinginess, and this wasn’t the first or second time. His words were just a way to get her to make him beggar’s chicken again.

Even so, she knew that last night Chu Ge secretly left a portion for the Old Gang Leader!

"Old Gang Leader, didn’t you have enough of your private feast with Chu Ge last night?" Feng Luo blinked at him and then cheerfully said, "Don’t deny it, last night I saw you sneaking in the courtyard drinking and eating chicken. Don’t think I didn’t know! I saw it all."

"Hey! Where did you see that? Weren’t you talking to your dad the whole time?" The Old Gang Leader looked at Feng Luo in confusion. This girl! Always teasing him!

"Hehe, alright, don’t worry. I’ll prepare the chicken for you at noon, but I have a little request."

Feng Luo held the Old Gang Leader’s arm, looking at him with pitiful eyes, and said, "You know my dad’s temper. If he finds out I fought with Princess Liu Li again, he’ll definitely go to the Emperor and ask for me not to join the army."

"You’re right, with your dad’s temperament, he would actually do that." The Old Gang Leader nodded in agreement.

"But wouldn’t that be just what you want? Didn’t you regret wanting to join the army earlier this morning?"

The Old Gang Leader looked at her, puzzled.

Feng Luo’s lip twitched, "Old Gang Leader, how do you know everything! I was just feeling down this morning, thinking there’s no freedom in the army, but now I’ve thought it through—going to the army to train might be good."

"Might be good?" The Old Gang Leader didn’t believe she had thought it through.

Feng Luo nodded guiltily, "Yeah, it’s good. I’ve thought it through, just as a way of training myself."

Given how well the Old Gang Leader knew Feng Luo, he glanced at the companions not far behind her and understood somewhat.

"Actually, it’s a bet with them, isn’t it?" The Old Gang Leader chuckled. Otherwise, Feng Luo was not someone who would so easily come to a decision.

Feng Luo’s lip twitched, "Old Gang Leader, can’t you pretend to be confused? Being too smart isn’t good!"

The Old Gang Leader laughed heartily, patting the back of her hand, he said, "Keeping this from your dad might be impossible for me."

"Why!" Feng Luo looked at him, frustrated.

"Because someone already went to tell your dad ahead of me. And do you think just now wasn’t a big deal? Who was that? Princess Liu Li! The notorious Little Chili, especially since she came out with so many Jinyi Guards today. It won’t be long before it reaches the Emperor, and even the Emperor will know. You think you can hide it from your dad?"

Feng Luo pouted and said nothing. What the Old Gang Leader said wasn’t wrong. Sigh, looks like she wouldn’t escape a scolding today.

Standing there, swaying, Feng Luo’s eyes unintentionally drifted, suddenly landing on Chu Ge. The scene of Chu Ge stepping forward just now still lingered in her mind.

"Hey!" Feng Luo walked over and stood beside Chu Ge.

Chu Ge ignored her.

Feng Luo felt a bit annoyed, "I’m calling you, didn’t you hear?"

"What’s up?" Chu Ge looked at her, puzzled, "Calling me? I thought you were just saying hey."

"You!" Feng Luo was a bit stifled by him, "Hey is calling you. Who else could I be calling!"

"Looks like you were really scared silly just now, forget even my name."

Chu Ge teased, "But my name’s not hey, it’s Chu Ge. If you were scared stupid, you can pay for me to help you heal."

"I’m a doctor myself; I don’t need your treatment!" Feng Luo, angered by Chu Ge’s provocation, fumed.

Chu Ge laughed, "Oh? So you’re admitting you’re sick?"

"You!" Feng Luo had already been simmering with anger from her encounter with Liu Li, and now Chu Ge was instigating, having hit the nail on the head.
