Beauty and the Bodyguard

Ms Yu looked at Goudan, and felt that he was quite the nice kid! He was nice, passionate, and he seemed to be quite the match for her daughter. She didn’t have that many materialistic thoughts the way Yu Ren did, she just cared whether or not he was nice.

Yu Ren’s thoughts, on the other hand, was that Goudan must stay no matter what! He was a Hercules, and if he were to help him in his shop his business would blossom!

Yuanyuan, on the other hand, was evidently more natural in front of her saviour, “Zhou Jiaming, I really have to thank you for earlier! I’m so sorry, I thought you were just saying that stuff, I didn’t think you’d actually kill that Fighter Li!”

“Haha…” Goudan laughed loudly, “Just call me Er Goudan- I can’t get used to hearing my real name! I didn’t really do anything, anyway, it’s not much!”

“I’ll just call you Zhou Jiaming, I think… Er Goudan… That doesn’t sound nice to me,” Yuanyuan couldn’t bring herself to say a name that sounded so brash.

The two were talking when there was a knock on the door!

Yu Ren and Miss Yu jumped in shock! They were worried that the people from the arena would send someone to get Goudan for revenge, and while Goudan’s presecne did reassure them, they couldn’t help but get tense.

“Old man, it isn’t them, right…” Miss Yu looked pale, staying away from the door.

“I’ll go check…” Yu Ren was panicking as well, but Fighter Li broke down their door last time- he felt that pretending to not be home wouldn’t work.

“Uncle Yu, I’ll go with you!” Goudan stood up, wiping away the food oil on his mouth without a care in the world.

Yu Ren was a lot calmer with Goudan with him. He opened the door, “Who… Who is it?”

“Yu Ren, right? I’m Scorpion!” Socrpion had come to pay the family some compensation money under Jianwen’s orders.

“It’s someone from the arena…” Yu Ren’s face tightened as he looked at Goudan carefully.

Goudan didn’t care. He opened the door and looked at Scorpion coldly, “Who are you? What do you want?”

“I’m Scorpion, I’m here to apologize to Yu Ren and Yu Yuanayuan!” Scorpion shivered upon seeing Goudan open the door- if it weren’t for the task at hand, he’d have been running already!

After all, this was the monster that killed Fighter Li with one hit! He wasn’t someone that he could handle!

“Scorpion? Who do you think you are, calling Uncle Yu by his name? You want to die?” Goudan’s eyes went wide, raising his arm as if to slap him.

“Grandpa Goudan, please spare me!!” Scorpion’s legs softened and wobbled as he knelt onto the floor, sweating coldly, “Uncle Yu, I’m here to apologize to Uncle Yu…”

“Do you have crap for brains?” Goudan wasn’t pleased, “You call me Grandpa Goudan, but call Uncle Yu, Uncle- you’re saying that I’m above Uncle Yu? Are you here to cause conflict between us??”

“Anc… Ancestor, Ancestor Yu…” Scorpion quickly changed his words, not expecting for a rough man like Goudan to think about that sort of logic.

“Alright, tell me what you came here for?” Goudan said impatiently.

“Grandpa Goudan, I’m here representing the arena to visit Ancestor Yu. That Fighter Li was a madman, he caused all of it- I hope that you would spare us and not bring your wrath unto our arena!” Scorpion said weakly.

“Alright, got it, what else?” Goudan said impatiently.

“Here’s a bank account with one million in here, it was supposed to be Ancestor Yu who should’ve won, but because of Fighter Li’s unfair tactics, Ancestor Yu lost the bet!” Scorpion took out the card, “Please accept this!”

Goudan took it over and passed it to Yu Ren, “Alright, scram- I don’t have time to talk with small men like you!”

“I…” Yu Ren had never seen such a huge amount before on a bank card- he didn’t dare accept this.

But Scorpion, on the other hand, ran away instantly upon hearing the confirmation on Goudan’s part- Yu Ren couldn’t even give it back if he wanted to!

At that point, Yu Ren’s family took a breath of relief. If Scorpion had come personally to apologize, this meant that the arena was scared of Goudan, and didn’t want any truoble with him anymore. That one million was to make sure he left them alone!

Holding the one million in his hand, Yu Ren felt that he was dreaming! Did he really have this much money in his hands? Not only could he buy himself a proper house, he’d be able to rent a bigger space in the market and make his business bigger!

This really was a fortunate turn of his unfortuante events! He was frowning and sighing just yesterday, and now he was being bombarded with all this good fortune!

“One million? I have one million?” Yu Ren started laughing as he held onto the card.

But he couldn’t get past two laughs when Yuanyuan snatched it away.

“What’re you doing?” Yu Ren jumped.

“This money is taken through Zhou Jiaming- it should be his!” Yuanyuan gave Goudan the card. “Take the card- you took such a big risk for us, this money should be yours!”

“I don’t want it!” Goudan scratched his head, smiling. “I don’t need that much money! I live here, and I have food and drinks- there’s no point for money.”

“That’s right, Lil’ Zhou is living here right now, he doesn’t need the money! Yuanyuan, why’re you such a child? Are you asking him to leave by giving him the money!” Yu Ren glared at his daughter and snatched the card back, “This is a heavy amount of money! I’m keeping it frirst!”

Yu Ren was a greedy man- he had recovered from his shock, and now that he had one million in his hand of course he woulnd’t give it out. Afer all, if he weren’t greedy, he wouldn’t have gotten involved in all that arena business in the first place.

Yuanyuan didn’t know if she should laugh or cry at that greedy look on her father, “I’m sorry, that’s how my dad is…”

“It’s fine, I really don’t lack money!” Goudan had food to eat and drinks to drink now, the only objective he didn’t achieve was finding Boss Lin Yi! Money wouldn’t help him!

Yuanyuan sighed once she saw that look on Goudan’s face. It seemed that he really didn’t care much about the money- she’d be in an awkward position otherwise!
