Rebirth of the Villainous Female Boss

Chapter 604: Chapter 578: Bodyguard and Annoyance (Thanks to kateliu for the platinum alliance reward+1)

“Yeah, my Brother Lang’s grandpa and my grandpa are blood brothers. My brother said that some bad guys are targeting my future sister-in-law, so he asked me to come and be her bodyguard.”

“…When did you arrive?” Xiao Qian now roughly understood that this girl was the one Yu Minglang asked to protect her.

He didn’t even give her a heads-up about this.

“I arrived at five in the afternoon.”

“From five o’clock till midnight?!” Even the calm Xiao Qian was provoked to lose her composure.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

How lost could this girl be, looking for the place for so many hours, wandering around here, and not calling herself?

“Actually, I had dinner here first. I found the restaurant by following the smell. By the time I finished eating, it was already dark. The roads look different during the day and at night, so I kept searching back and forth. But my sense of direction is so bad that I couldn’t find the place. My phone ran out of battery, and I didn’t know my cousin’s phone number… My future sister-in-law’s number is also stored on my phone.”

Xiao Qian was utterly amazed by this girl, who had been lost for hours right at her doorstep. What a lost cause!

“Why didn’t you ask someone for directions?”

“I did! At first, I asked the old man who was playing chess under the street lamp. I asked him how to get to this place, and he pointed me in the right direction. But I couldn’t find it after searching for a while, so I went back to the same street lamp and found the old man again. I asked him again, and he pointed again, and I searched for another round, but still ended up seeing him!”

Yu Liumei didn’t know why she kept coming back to the same direction after wandering around for so long.

“Then what?”

“Then the old man, who was really nice, stood up and tried to take me there. He saw me carrying a big bag and wanted to help. But there was no way I’d let the old man help me with such a heavy bag! So he asked me what was in the bag, and I told him. Then he just walked away without looking back.”

“What’s in your bag, then?”

“Nunchaku, Luoyang Shovel, and a big bag.”

“Pfft!”

Xiao Qian couldn’t help it.

She completely understood the old man’s feelings.

An odd girl wandering around with what looked like a complete set of tools for murder and disposing of the body – it would be even stranger if he didn’t run away!

“What’s so funny? I’m from a martial arts school, and I carry these things with me wherever I go for fitness.”

She had already broken several sandbags, so to save money and better exercise her leg strength, she carried her own special burlap bags and made her own sandbags wherever she went.

Seeing her cute and honest appearance, Xiao Qian wasn’t angry with Minglang for making decisions without consulting her for the first time.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you there.”

“Hey! You’re such a kind person! Here, have some roasted skewers!” She handed a skewer to Xiao Qian, who took a bite.

“The meat tendon is a bit tough. Next time I’ll take you to a better place where they grill it even better. The grilled fish is also delicious.”

“Do you like braised pork?”

“I like it when it’s cooked well. My fiancé makes it quite nicely. I’ll let you try it someday.”

And so, the foodie was bribed.

Guaiguai obediently got into Xiao Qian’s car and followed her home.

“Are you usually like this?”

Xiao Qian took her into the elevator and casually asked.

“Like what?”

“Following people just because they gave you some food? Aren’t you afraid I’m a bad guy?”

“You know what, I did run into a weird old man before. He said he had delicious food and invited me to eat. But he took me to a terrifying place and tried to do something to me.”

“And then?”

“I beat him up, stripped his pants off, and tied him to a tree. I wrote ‘I am a bad guy’ on his body with a ballpoint pen. He dared to mess with me, apparently not knowing how I earned my title of Four-Time National Women’s Sanda Champion!”

No wonder Xiao Qiang asked her to come.

Xiao Qian understood now.

Yu Minglang must have been worried about her safety going to and from work, so he had asked a relative to come and help.

“Beautiful woman, I have a special way of judging people. Women who candidly say they like braised pork, especially beautiful women like you, are usually genuine and straightforward. Just because of this, I can tell that you are not a bad person.”

“Hmm, you have good eyes. I am an uncomplicated person.”

Xiao Qian took her out of the elevator. “It’s here.”

Yu Liumei looked at the note and smiled brightly, finally reaching her destination.

Xiao Qian took out her key and opened the door. She was surprised and widened her eyes.

“Beautiful woman, you -”

“Change your way of addressing me. I am your cousin’s fiancée. You can call me Sister Qian now, and Sister-in-law later.” Xiao Qian gestured for her to come in.

It was ten minutes later when Xiao Qiang called her.

Xiao Qian had just finished showering. Her new roommate and bodyguard was putting the freshly cooked wontons on the table. When she arrived, Brother Lang had already told her about the rules of staying here, with the most important one being not letting her future cousin-in-law cook. So when Xiao Qian suggested cooking the wontons in the microwave as a late-night snack, Yu Liumei immediately volunteered to cook.

“Did you get home?” Yu Minglang’s voice came through the phone.

“Mmhmm, just got home.”

“Did you see the little buddy I found for you? Her phone is unreachable.”

“I saw her.”

Xiao Qian’s voice made Yu Minglang realize her displeasure immediately, and he hurriedly lowered his voice to ask.

“Qian Bao, are you upset about me making decisions without telling you? It’s not that I didn’t want to tell you about this. I was just about to call you when Uncle Liu threatened me, saying he’d teach me a lesson if I dared to show off in front of him again. I reported to you as soon as I got the chance.”

Yu Minglang knew that Xiao Qian was a person with a unique personality, who didn’t like people intruding into her space other than her two roommates. But this time, the situation happened suddenly, and he was concerned about Xiao Qian’s safety. Among his relatives, Yu Liumei was the most suitable person to accompany Xiao Qian.

The girl had innate strength and was later sent to a martial arts school by her family. It was as easy as play for her to fight two or three grown men.

But not having consulted with Qian Bao first, was Qian Bao upset now?

“Yu Minglang!”

“Yes! I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have done that without telling you. I shouldn’t have—”

“Who told you that? I’m asking you, why did you tell Liumei that I’m a kitchen idiot – a once-in-a-century idiot, at that?”

Boss Qian was always sensitive about her poor cooking skills.

She usually hid it and didn’t let others know.

This was just like how dark-skinned people wanted to find some powder to whiten themselves.

Just now, when she suggested cooking wontons for a late-night snack, Yu Liumei immediately told her to go ahead. Xiao Qian felt embarrassed to let her guest do the cooking, but before she could say anything, she heard the girl say that her brother told her Xiao Qian was a once-in-a-century kitchen idiot, and if she didn’t want to risk her life, she should stay away from the kitchen.

Boss Qian was furious when she listened, and this guy Yu Minglang dared to send her to her door, claiming she was a kitchen idiot! It was too much!

“This is nothing. I thought you didn’t like Liumei at first. Though she likes to eat a lot, she’s a good person. I think my fiancée should be able to get along with her. Qian Bao, stay with Liumei these days, and don’t go out alone—”

“Don’t change the subject! You tell me, how am I an idiot – a once-in-a-century idiot?”

She had made a lot of progress now, as she could use a microwave to cook instant noodles and wontons!
