“Now that I think about it, she’s quite impressive. I quite admire her.”
“That’s right. Look at how this young lady is training and stretching. She looks very disciplined.”
“Her force delivery position and posture are very standard, and her muscles are quite good-looking. She must have been guided by a professional master.”
As soon as the conversation started, the bodyguards could not help but discuss it. They all expressed high praise for Shan Yue’s habits and training results.
Suddenly, someone realized that something was wrong and exclaimed, “Damn, where is she?”
Everyone was so excited from chatting that they were actually distracted. When everyone looked at the flower bed where Shan Yue was just now again, they saw that it was empty.
“How is that possible! I just saw her stretching her legs there. How did she suddenly disappear?”
The bodyguard captain’s face instantly turned pale. If Shan Yue was kidnapped by those killers under their noses, not only would they lose their jobs, but they would even be skinned by Zhou Xuan when they returned. “Hurry up and search around. She can’t have run too far!”
However, the six of them carefully searched the surroundings. Not to mention Shan Yue, they did not even see the shadow of the killer who was said to appear.
“What the hell!” After the six of them gathered, a bodyguard couldn’t help but complain. Under the eyes of these six professionally trained bodyguards, Shan Yue could even get lost. It was too embarrassing and ridiculous!
“The two of you, go back to the Shan residence and guard it. You and you, search along this street…” There was really no other way. The captain of the bodyguards could only use the stupidest method and split up to direct everyone to find the person.
“Are you—looking for me?” A cold female voice sounded behind everyone. It was especially strange in the bleak dark night. This sudden sentence made everyone’s hearts tremble.
“Oh my god!” The bodyguard in front of Shan Yue trembled in fear and reflexively slammed his elbow back.
“Don’t!” The captain of the bodyguards had just recognized the deliberately scary female voice as their protective target, Shan Yue. When he saw the bodyguard attack Shan Yue, he was shocked.
With this elbow strike, Shan Yue would either die or be crippled. They were originally in charge of protection, but now, they had beaten up the young lady. They were doomed!
However, under everyone’s terrified gazes, Shan Yue lightly dodged the elbow attack of the frightened bodyguard. Then, one of her hands landed on his shoulder , she sank her qi into her dantian, and borrowed the force—
And easily threw the bodyguard to the ground!
“Oh my God…” The captain of the bodyguards, who was double-frightened, gasped. From Shan Yue’s action and her concealment just now, he clearly realized one thing: they were not worthy of protecting Shan Yue at all.
An hour later, at the Zhou residence in the central city of the Federation.
Zhou Xuan and Zhou Yang were sitting opposite each other. In front of them was a chessboard.
At this moment, the war between the Chu and Han sides was nearing its end. There were not many chess pieces left on both sides. The two sides were facing each other, and it seemed that their forces were equally matched.
The only difference was that Zhou Yang was sweating profusely as he played chess. Every step he took required him to think for a long time, while Zhou Xuan was calm and composed. With every step Zhou Yang took, he immediately followed. Then, he slowly smoked a cigar and waited for Zhou Yang to finish thinking.
“President Zhou, there’s news from S City.” A secretary hurriedly walked in and saw that the two of them were playing chess. He forcefully swallowed his words.
Zhou Yang bit his lip and stared at the chessboard without saying anything. Zhou Xuan hooked his finger and gestured for his secretary to wait in the study. He asked in a low voice, “Is it an urgent matter?”
“Uh, I don’t think so.” The secretary’s expression became a little strange. To him, the news he had just received had really overturned his worldview. However, as Zhou Xuan’s secretary, he still suppressed the shock in his heart.
“Alright, wait a moment.” Zhou Xuan nodded and continued to wait quietly for Zhou Yang to play chess.
Three minutes later, Zhou Xuan nimbly picked up the black chess piece and slammed it on Zhou Yang’s red chess piece. He said in disappointment, “It’s the fifth kill tonight. Zhou Yang, I deliberately went easy.”
