Chapter 74 The Pressure from a Junior...



Song Yuanchao praised in broken English, "Good, very good!"

Three retired US soldiers were now his subordinates. He wanted to introduce Chen Rou, and was racking his brains for the right words. Chen Rou estimated that with his English level, he could only say "boss wife" at most, so she took the initiative to shake hands with one of them and said, "Rose!"

The original owner even had the same English name as Chen Rou, which was Rose.

The other person came over to shake hands: "ram".

It seems his name is Ram. Chen Rou said, "Hi, Ram."

Another hand reached out: "Sam."

It seems his name is Sam. He has red hair, a big nose, and a rather honest appearance.

There was another one shooting. Song Yuanchao pointed and said, "That's Hank. These foreigners are all pretty good shooters."

Although all humans have one head and two eyes, brain capacity varies greatly.

Nie's CEO, Wade, looks very capable, and the people he hires must be just as good.

These retired US soldiers are clearly skilled in martial arts; they would make excellent bodyguards.

However, they had a fatal problem: they couldn't adapt to the local environment. The British army had been stationed in Hong Kong for a hundred years, but they had never fought a successful battle in Asia. Even though the American soldiers were skilled, they couldn't adapt to the social customs and culture of Hong Kong.

So of the two men Nie Zhao originally hired, one was killed by pirates and the other was poisoned by Mei Lu.

Nie Zhao wouldn't dare use bodyguards in Hong Kong, or even across Asia.

Yu Zhengrong's network of connections is too powerful; as long as you put in the effort, you're bound to find a way to overcome it.

Hiring Western bodyguards eliminates these concerns, but they have a fatal flaw: they are not accustomed to the local environment and lack experience.

In the early stages, we can only let them do the grunt work.

This time, Chen Rou and her team are going to take down a triad boss who commands tens of thousands of gangsters. Moreover, Xiang Tiange is invincible in Kowloon with just a baseball bat. He deals with sneak attacks, territory grabs, and assassinations every day, so his vigilance must be extremely high.

They only have one shot to kill Xiang Tiange. If they can blow his head off, Tianyi Hall will be leaderless, and other halls will rise up against him. If he dies, it will be for nothing. But if they can't kill him with one shot, then he will be like an arrow piercing the clouds, and thousands of troops will come to meet him.

Liang Lisheng dared not criticize Chen Rou's marksmanship any longer, but for such an important matter as assassination, he naturally had to test everyone. The six-target circular moving target was only the most basic; there were also rising target machines, tilting target machines, and disc shooting. Starting to practice marksmanship now was like cramming for the last minute, and it was too late. What Liang Lisheng did was to select the two best candidates from the existing pool to carry out the assassination mission.

He handed the birdcage to Chen Rou and went to keep an eye on the marksmanship of the foreign bodyguards.

Song Yuanchao's admiration and respect for Nie Zhao had not yet faded. However, not knowing Chen Rou's background, he couldn't say anything directly, so he just said in a dry voice, "Our boss Nie works so hard. Miss Chen, you must treat him better in the future."

This was an open-air shooting range, and they were so close to the firing area that a single gunshot would leave them with ringing ears for a long time. Chen Rou's ears were ringing from the gunshot, and she couldn't hear anything. Seeing that the gun display room next door was soundproofed with glass, she carried the birdcage inside, closed the door, rubbed her ears for a while, and then asked, "Brother Song, what did you just say?"

She was different from everyone else here; they all called her "comrade" or "Brother Song."

She was clearly from Hong Kong, but she was different from other Hong Kongers; she would speak Mandarin with him in private.

Song Yuanchao felt a warmth in his heart and changed his words, saying, "Wan Daozai asked me to tell you that his athlete's foot is cured."

Chen Rou didn't even know the exact address of the place where Mei Lu and her son were being held by the Taiwanese authorities.

But Song Yuanchao had gone there with Nie Zhao, so he had met the Taiwanese.

Chen Rou had no feelings for Nie Yao, and her enemy was no longer Mei Lu; they were a thing of the past for her. However, she still asked, "How are the conditions in their place? Are they alright?"

Song Yuanchao said, "Ms. Mei's situation is not good. She doesn't even have bedding and sleeps on straw. She eats spoiled food. Nie Yao is better off. The boss even had Kuang Zai prescribe medicine for him to treat his wounds, and his food is much better."

He knew neither Mei Lu nor the entanglement between Han Yuzhu and the Mei siblings, and said carefully, "Miss Chen, we mainlanders, especially soldiers, never harm women and children, nor the elderly, weak, sick and disabled."

Nie Zhao's underhanded tactics against a woman, attempting to force her to her death, were something Song Yuanchao found unacceptable.

"Do you know Unit 7.3.1? Mrs. Mei's grandfather was a bioengineer in it?" Chen Rou pointed to her temples and said, "There was a foreign bodyguard named Benjamin who was fired, right? Do you know where his alopecia areata came from? She did it."

Even a soundproof room cannot completely block out sound.

There was gunfire outside, live ammunition, one shot after another, the sound of bullets hitting the glass room making a buzzing noise. Upon hearing this, Song Yuanchao cursed, "Damn it, I really didn't see that coming."

He was a senior colleague, and he was new to the area, so he needed some guidance. Chen Rou said, "You need to be careful, and also be wary of the bodyguards who have contact with the mother and child. Be cautious in everything you do. There are not only compatriots here, but also enemies."

"Thank you, Miss Chen," Song Yuanchao said sincerely.

Although he greatly admired Boss Nie's noble character and felt particularly honored to have saved his life in the Philippines.

But in Song Yuanchao's heart, Miss Chen will always be the best, without exception!

...

If Leung Lee-sang weren't the vice chairman of Hong Kong's largest company, he could definitely have become a big shot in Kowloon.
