459 Father, Stop Pretending

As Shen Ruojing approached, Jing Zhen immediately tensed up and gestured to Bai Wei. “Quickly, quickly, don’t let her know we’re together.”

Bai Wei. “??”

He immediately lowered his head and sat far away from Jing Zhen.

At the same time, Bai Wei couldn’t help but sigh silently in his heart.

He was already a seventy-year-old man, and besides bowing his head in front of Shen Yuansong, he was always revered no matter where he went. When had he ever been so embarrassed?

He really didn’t understand what the big shots were playing at…

When Shen Ruojing approached, this was the scene she saw.

An elderly man quickly dodged to the side, sitting a little further away from Jing Zhen. At the same time, Jing Zhen pretended to be calm and was looking at the fighting ring with a worried expression on his face.

She walked over to Jing Zhen and called out. “Father.”

Jing Zhen immediately looked at her. “Jingjing, you came just in time. Quickly come help Father choose some bodyguards!”

“…”

Shen Ruojing was silent for a moment. She then simply sat next to him and asked, “Why are you here to choose bodyguards?”

“Of course, we have to choose the best!” Jing Zhen looked at her and lowered his voice. “I’ve been a little too popular lately, and even when I post on Weibo, there are five thousand comments. I’m afraid some fans will hurt me.”

Shen Ruojing simply watched his act.

She naturally understood why Jing Zhen was looking for bodyguards. The Doom Organization was targeting them. Even Chu Cichen had increased the number of guards protecting the Chu family, and the Shen family had also added a guard team recently.

After all, Jing Zhen and Shen Qianhui were the only ones who worked outside, and there were many people around them, making them easy targets.

Moreover, when Doom captured Shen Ruojing in the past, it was related to her father. Now, with them knowing Prof Z’s identity, they were even less likely to let them go…

As Shen Ruojing thought, a voice suddenly came from nearby. “Huh? Big Brother? Sister-in-law? What brings you here?”

Chu Cimo walked over and saw Jing Zhen at a glance. He wasn’t sensitive to things like identity, but he knew that Jing Zhen was Shen Ruojing’s father, so he didn’t look down on this small-time actor like others did and politely greeted him, “Uncle, you’re here too?”

Jing Zhen was about to speak when Chu Cimo suddenly saw the old man two or three people away!

He immediately showed reverence and hurriedly walked over. “Grandfather, you’re here too!”

Bai Wei, who didn’t want to be seen, coughed and could only walk over and smile at Jing Zhen. “Idol, you’re here too!”

“Idol?” Chu Cimo was confused.

Old Master Bai said, “I’m a fan of Teacher Jing!”

Afraid that everyone would ask him which of Jing Zhen’s dramas he had watched, Bai Wei quickly turned the topic to the point. “Teacher Jing, why are you here?”

Jing Zhen smiled and said a little embarrassedly, “I want to find two disciples from the Valor Gate to be my bodyguards.”

“Poof!”

Chu Cimo almost spat out his saliva, jokingly saying, “Do you think the Valor Gate is a security agency? Also, there aren’t many Valor Gate disciples in total, are you dayd…”

Before he could finish saying the word “dream”, Old Master Bai kicked him, causing Chu Cimo to almost bite his tongue.

Old Master Bai then glared at him.

Chu Cimo really didn’t know any better. How could he talk to a big shot like that?

Why did Bai Shanshan have to find such an unproductive and lazy man?!

If it weren’t for the fact that the two of them had gotten their marriage certificate and had a child, Old Master Bai would have wanted to take Bai Shanshan back home and choose another partner for her.

He quickly looked at Jing Zhen. “Teacher Jing is so popular now, so he should really find a professional bodyguard. How about we try to find someone from Valor Gate to take care of it?”

He came here today to accompany the big shot to find someone. If they could find someone with good martial art skills and a clean background in the fighting ring, that would be great. Hiring someone privately was only a matter of price.

Unfortunately, the people who had stepped into the ring couldn’t catch the big shot’s eye.

The real experts were all hidden in Valor Gate!

So he was prepared to accompany Jing Zhen to find someone from Valor Gate to take care of it. After all, with the Bai family’s identity, even if Valor Gate didn’t send anyone, they would at least meet with them and give them a chance.

Otherwise, if the big shot wanted to see someone from the Valor Gate’s administration without revealing his identity, they would definitely be turned away!

But as soon as he said that, Chu Cimo finally had a chance to show off in front of Bai Shanshan’s grandfather. He immediately shouted, “I know someone in their administration, Grandfather. I’ll take you to see my Fifth Brother!”

After speaking, he walked to the side. “He’s here, follow me!”

Old Master Bai’s face turned black again. He was about to reprimand Chu Cimo for talking big, but he saw Jing Zhen nod slightly and immediately became nervous.

(What’s wrong with this stinky kid? Why is he showing off here?)

Chu Cimo, a rich second-generation son without any abilities, could have a relationship with Valor Gate?!

But the big shot had nodded, so Bai Wei could only follow Chu Cimo’s lead and ask in a low voice, “How do you know someone from their administration?”

Chu Cimo scratched his head.

He had been here for half a month, participating in the fighting matches. Also, he had made it to the top five, and if he could win first place in the fighting competition and rejoin Valor Gate, his status could be elevated. But right now, he didn’t want to say anything.

He just coughed and said, “I often come to watch the matches, and after a few times, I got to know the administration!”

After speaking, he added, “Grandfather, although Valor Gate really won’t get involved in the struggle between the four major families and has never sent any bodyguards to the four major families in recent years, don’t worry, I will have the Fifth Brother arrange for two people for you.”

His Fifth Senior Brother had some status within the sect.

He could easily find two outer disciples or some other senior brothers who wanted to make extra money on the side. They could just appear beside Jing Zhen and Chu Cimo under the guise of being friends.

This matter could be easily accomplished.

However, Old Master Bai didn’t believe him and asked, “You’re so familiar with the person in charge of Valor Gate?”

He naturally was. In fact, he was so familiar to the extent that if he hadn’t left Valor Gate back then, he would be in charge now! Chu Cimo grinned and shouted in the distance, “Fifth Senior Brother!”

A sunny-faced man wearing Valor Gate’s practice uniform heard the call and immediately looked over. He ran here and asked, “Junio…Cimo, what brings you here?”

Old Master Bai didn’t think too much about it, as even an outsider would choose to address a Valor Gate disciple with “Fifth Senior Brother” if they knew the title.

He remained silent and planned to wait for Chu Cimo to be refused by this “Fifth Senior Brother” before he would propose to meet their “Grand Martial Uncle”.

After all, Bai Wei and Old Man Hong were of the same generation, so after making the request, the current “Grand Martial Uncle” would definitely not dare to refuse.

While he was thinking about this, he saw Chu Cimo hooking his arm around the Fifth Senior Brother’s shoulder and whispering, “My eldest brother’s father-in-law is a celebrity and needs two bodyguards. Do you have any senior brothers who are short on cash and can do a short-term job?”

Old Master Bai shook his head. This brat was too impatient. Were they so familiar to the extent that they could make requests like this as soon as they met?

Shen Ruojing, Jing Zhen, and Chu Cichen followed Chu Cimo. Shen Ruojing knew that with Chu Cimo’s identity as the “little junior brother”, this matter could be handled easily.

While Chu Cimo was chatting with the Valor Gate disciple, Shen Ruojing approached Jing Zhen and said, “Father.”

Jing Zhen nodded. “What’s up?”

Shen Ruojing looked into his eyes and asked sharply, “What secrets do you have with the Doom Organization?!”

Jing Zhen was about to continue acting.

She lowered her eyes and directly confronted him, “Father, don’t pretend anymore. The Doom Organization contacted me and said that I was kidnapped because you have a secret.”

Jing Zhen. “…”
