The Beautiful CEO’s Close Bodyguard

A little soldier beside Xiao Si smiled and asked him.

Xiao Si nodded, "Ah, yes, this year I turned twenty-two."

"At your age, to be honest, it’s considered quite old in the army camp. What made you suddenly decide to enlist?"

Xiao Si scratched his head, "Isn’t it just for the sake of making a living?"

Chu Ge listened from the side, puzzled, "Making a living?"

"This time, the recruitment said that the military pay has doubled. Being a soldier for three years earns way more than doing hard labor for ten years!" Xiao Si clicked his tongue, but who can guarantee these three years will be safe?

On this journey, he had been observing Chu Ge. After learning he was a military doctor, he kept contemplating whether to dismiss Chu Ge’s apprentice.

But when he openly suggested it, Chu Ge refused.

"These three years aren’t long or short, but if something unexpected happens, can you endure through these three years?"

These words indeed weren’t unwarranted. Once on the battlefield, if you were hit by a stray weapon and lost your life, forget about the money earned in three years; even the money in hand wouldn’t accompany you.

Chu Ge didn’t speak. He turned his head to look at the crowd. They were at the end. Not far away, Feng Luo sat in the shade, holding a cake and enjoying himself.

However, he scanned around and didn’t see the Old Gang Leader’s figure, feeling somewhat puzzled. He stood up and then did a circle, eventually seeing the Old Gang Leader by the stream not too far away.

He sat alone on a stone with his back facing him, without knowing what he was doing.

Chu Ge walked over curiously and asked, "Old Gang Leader, what are you doing sitting here?"

Seeing Chu Ge come over, the Old Gang Leader wanted to stand up, but Chu Ge held him down. He sat beside him and asked, "Are you thinking about something important?"

"Kind of." The Old Gang Leader sighed, "Actually, it’s nothing important, just thinking about how we should find the Time-Space Gate when we arrive at Yellow Island."

"What do you mean?"

"You saw the commotion; who knows where we’ll be assigned. If we’re far from the Time-Space Gate, it would be inconvenient for us to act." The Old Gang Leader slightly shook his head and sighed.

"But just thinking about it here won’t help," Chu Ge said. "Instead of sitting here daydreaming, we might as well wait for the arrangements. It’s not too late to think of a way once it’s settled."

The Old Gang Leader laughed, "You’re right. The closer it gets, the more unsettling I feel."

Chu Ge always felt the Old Gang Leader must have experienced something. But asking directly seemed a bit abrupt.

The Old Gang Leader thought for a while and suddenly noticed Chu Ge wasn’t speaking. He tilted his head, curiously looking at Chu Ge, seeing that he was hesitant to speak. He laughed, "Do you have something you want to ask me?"

Chu Ge coughed lightly, "You noticed?"

"Haha, it’s written all over your face, clearly and plainly. If you have something to say, just say it."

The Old Gang Leader said with a smile, "We are in the same boat now. There’s nothing we can’t discuss. If you have doubts in your mind, the road ahead will be difficult."

This was no exaggeration. If Chu Ge had unanswered doubts in his mind, acting with reserve would indeed make their actions inconvenient.

Chu Ge smiled faintly, "I indeed have some questions for the Old Gang Leader. They are my questions, too."

"Please go ahead."

"Actually, there’s nothing to it; I’m just curious if you’ve been through something similar before?" Chu Ge always felt the Old Gang Leader seemed knowledgeable about the Time-Space Gate, as if he’d experienced it before.

The Old Gang Leader smiled, sighed softly, and exhaled the murkiness from his heart, "This story harks back to fifteen years ago."

He gazed ahead as if through air, gazing at something, "Fifteen years ago, the year I picked up Feng Luo, there was a disaster."

"A disaster?" Chu Ge was puzzled, "What disaster?"

"A natural disaster, a human-induced natural disaster." The Old Gang Leader stood up and walked to the stream, stopping there, looking at the great scenery, and slightly shaking his head, "Fifteen years ago, a man claiming to foresee the future came to our dynasty, named Wei Yongxiang. By chance, he met the Emperor during a hunt and saved the Emperor’s life."

Wei Yongxiang? Chu Ge furrowed his brows; this name seemed familiar as if he’d heard it somewhere before.

Thinking a bit more, he suddenly remembered, having heard the old man at home mention it before, "Are you sure it was Wei Yongxiang?"

"What’s there to be sure about? Just a name, but he nearly caused our nation’s downfall. This name, I’ll never get wrong to my death."

Chu Ge hesitated slightly, then shook his head. It might just be a coincidental name, and perhaps it wasn’t the person the old man mentioned.

"What did he do?" Chu Ge wondered.

"At that time, there was also a temporal disturbance, only the temporal disturbance back then might have been immature. Wei Yongxiang’s power wasn’t sufficient to control the Time-Space Gate, causing turbulence and disaster."

Chu Ge slightly lowered his eyes, pondering something; so a temporal disturbance existed back then.

Wei Yongxiang... he had heard this name from his father, hearing about it because he wanted to apprentice and was turned away. His father said this man had a crooked Heart Skill, outwardly appearing gentlemanly when it was a facade, actually etched with ambition.

Unexpectedly, he had the skill to manipulate the Time-Space Gate!

"The last temporal disturbance didn’t quite happen as it does now. Apart from Feng Luo being swept into our realm by the time-space turbulence, there was nothing else abnormal, hardly anyone came here. But this time..."

The Old Gang Leader looked meaningfully at Chu Ge, "This time, several people came."

Several people?

Chu Ge looked at the Old Gang Leader in surprise, "How do you know several people?"

"Haha, though I’m old, my eyes aren’t dim. I can see, Lady Ye and your martial arts follow the same path."

If it weren’t for Ye Liang eavesdropping on their conversation and revealing some of her background, he wouldn’t have known that Ye Liang also came from another time-space.

"You just mentioned several people, who else?" Chu Ge asked again.

The Old Gang Leader paused, stroking his beard, and deeply looked at Chu Ge, "I suspect the Princess Consort isn’t truly the Princess Consort either."

"Princess Consort? Princess He Shuo?" Chu Ge furrowed his brow.

The Old Gang Leader nodded, "I always felt she was a complex person, just talking about what happened at the recruitment site, I stood far away and saw her using the Fox Charm Technique on the Prince."

"Fox Charm Technique..." Chu Ge pondered and then laughed lightly, "Indeed, she was employing the Fox Charm Technique!"
