Huang Xiaoqing listened to Da Biao’s words and realized that he was on his own, without family, and had been at the garrison since he was eleven. Now, he’s still in this job.
Twenty-eight is indeed seven years older than , quite a big difference.
I understand his profession. I’m just afraid my parents won’t agree, as I am their only young woman, and they are both teachers.
Back then, they once told they hoped I would find soone cultured, with a safe and stable job.
This ti, it was a notice from the school, and my parents didn’t want to co over. They could probably guess that the n coming here are all successful in their careers, but certainly not young anymore. This is the first reason, and the second is they don’t like their jobs.
But I still ca, as I have a kind of admiration for them.
At first glance, I
saw Da Biao, and imdiately recognized him as a heroic figure.
Da Biao looked at the young woman, lost in thought, seemingly thinking about her own feelings. Probably in disagreent.
Huang Xiaoqing picked up the cup again and drank water, then put it down and looked at Da Biao.
"You’re seven years older than . I admire your profession very much."
Da Biao was puzzled. What was this girl thinking? Besides, she’s much younger than , right? He couldn’t guess won’s ages, thinking she’s only three or four years younger.
Huang Xiaoyu continued, "My parents are also teachers, and I don’t intend to disrespect your lack of cultural education.
My parents want to find soone ordinary and educated. But I don’t want that; I like people like you."
Da Biao understood this girl’s aning: she herself was willing, but her family wasn’t.
"My parents just have one child. Therefore, I wonder if you would be willing to et my parents today?"
Da Biao understood better now. She is a filial and sensible girl.
So he nodded, "Alright. Although we only just t, I think you’re quite nice and worth it."
Huang Xiaoyu gave a shy smile, "Thank you. I will try to talk to my parents."
Da Biao nodded, "Good. I actually don’t participate in dangerous work anymore. I’m now responsible for teaching and dispatching work. The risk is greater than for ordinary people, but I won’t live life on the edge."
Huang Xiaoyu nodded with a smile.
Da Biao looked at the ti; it was already nearly four o’clock, and clearly not early.
"Hold on, let ask if we can leave now."
Since he wanted to visit the young woman’s place, it was best to go earlier. No need to wait until it’s too late.
The person in charge naturally had no objections, and they could leave now.
Da Biao returned to inform Huang Xiaoyu. By this ti, Daqing and the others also ca in.
The two exchanged a quiet word, "As long as you can drive away, then go ahead."
"No need."
"Just drive; can’t the rest of us find our way back?" Daqing glared at Da Biao. Of the five people who ca here, Da Biao had the most hope of succeeding. Since he was going to the young woman’s house, driving was the best option.
Da Biao nodded; he understood his brother’s aning.
The two left. This left them as three plus three young won to get to know each other.
Chengzi and Li Xiaoyu sat down after that, and Chengzi poured water for the young woman.
"I’ll introduce myself first; my na is Chengzi. I have no family, don’t know my surna, and began training at twelve. Now I’m twenty-nine.
Previously stationed at the garrison for work. Now I’m a bodyguard."
Li Xiaoyu was surprised by Chengzi’s words. "I thought you were at the garrison?"
Chengzi shook his head, "I left the garrison years ago."
"I’m Li Xiaoyu, a primary school teacher. I’m twenty-one. You look quite young; didn’t expect you’re eight years older."
Chengzi was surprised. I knew this girl was younger than . Having been around with sis-in-law, who’s already twenty-six, I thought this girl was about the sa. Didn’t expect she’s just twenty-one.
"Hehe, our age gap is quite big."
Li Xiaoyu nodded, "Yes, didn’t expect we’re eight years apart."
Chengzi felt it was less likely now.
"By the way, is being a bodyguard dangerous?"
Chengzi nodded, "Of course it’s dangerous. If I don’t listen, it’s better."
"Do you protect a leader?"
Chengzi nodded, "Yes, but I can’t tell you yet."
Li Xiaoyu smiled, "I understand.
Who was your first choice?"
Chengzi smiled, "Number nineteen."
"Her? Why did you later pick ?"
"Because I rembered what the elders said, girls who love to laugh are blessed."
"You’ve got an eye."
Chengzi chuckled, thinking if it worked out, he’d be quite happy?
"What are you thinking?"
"? Actually, you’re quite nice; it’s just my family needs to agree. I’m the only girl at ho. Both my grandparents, parents, and three brothers must agree."
Chengzi nodded, "Certainly, that’s needed."
"So, how about this? You co to my house tomorrow so they can all see you. By the way, do you have ti?"
Chengzi thought of the elder brother’s and sister-in-law’s attitudes, and he definitely had ti anyti.
"Yes."
"Great, co to my place tomorrow."
Chengzi nodded with a smile.
Li Xiaoyu stood up, "Well, I’ll be heading back."
Chengzi stood up as well, "I’ll escort you."
Li Xiaoyu smiled, shaking her head, "No need, my big brother is coming to pick up."
Chengzi still escorted the young woman out.
Li Xiaoyu’s big brother was instantly recognized by Chengzi. He was a secretary at the Ministry of Construction, Xin Cheng.
Li Xincheng also recognized Chengzi; the two nodded, and Li Xiaoyu curiously watched them, "You know each other?"
Li Xincheng nodded, "We do."
Chengzi also said they knew each other.
"That’s great. Tomorrow you should co to my house; did you rember the address?"
Chengzi nodded. Didn’t expect the world was so small, still knowing family.
Watching Li Xiaoyu sitting on the bicycle’s back seat, waving with a smile. Chengzi smiled.
Perhaps this would increase the success rate? This girl was good.
The siblings reached ho, Li Xiaoyu laughed, running into the living room without waiting for her brother.
She’s the only girl at ho and very much cherished.
Li Xincheng put away the bicycle and followed inside, listening to his sister talking with the family.
"Xincheng, do you know who that man is?" the Li family’s elder asked.
Li Xincheng took off his coat and sat down, "Yes, that man is Su Yuanyuan’s bodyguard, but actually, if he wasn’t one, his position wouldn’t be low either."
"Su Yuanyuan? The powerful minister?" Li Xiaoyu asked excitedly.
Li Xincheng nodded, "Yes, it’s indeed that powerful minister."
Li Xiaoyu excitedly stood, "Fantastic, do I have a chance to et Minister Su?"
