Young men of this age are full of passion and fighting spirit. After going through so much brutal training here, who wouldn't want to climb up? Who wouldn't have some ambition?
Thinking of this, the boys looked at An Ci with burning eyes, almost wanting to shout, "Choose me."
An Ci glanced at them. She had already looked at the information of each of them before coming, so there was no need to ask them to introduce themselves, which would be a waste of time.
She let go of An Zhenxiong's hand, took a few steps forward, and her eyes moved back and forth between them.
"Don't be nervous, a gentleman uses words instead of fists. I'll just ask you a few questions." She put her hands in her pockets, smiled, and the corners of her eyes curved slightly, looking innocent and pure.
"First question, if you become my secret guards, will you only listen to me, or will you also listen to my grandfather?"
Behind her, An Zhenxiong heard this and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
This kid is really cunning.
The boys hesitated, glanced at An Zhenxiong secretly, and were a little unable to make a decision.
But An Ci didn't intend to give them time to think. She walked straight to the first person on the left and looked him in the eye. "Answer."
"three."
"I..." The boy looked embarrassed.
"Two, one."
After counting down to three seconds, An Ci passed him and walked to the next person.
"And you?"
This clean and sharp questioning style instantly made the atmosphere tense, and the teenagers were visibly panicking.
The second young man said hurriedly, "I will listen to you and the master of the house."
"You say." An Ci moved to the right.
"I listen to you and the Patriarch."
"I listen to both of you."
With the demonstration by the friend in front, no one dared to hesitate and gave the answer without hesitation. Without exception, everyone said they would listen to both.
After all, the head of the family is standing there, who dares to disobey?
The last one is Dali.
An Ci walked up to him and asked, "What about you? Do you have the same answer as them?"
"No." He shook his head vigorously, his eyes firm and without hesitation, "I'll do as you say."
Although others say that he is stubborn and too straightforward in what he does and says, he still understands the principle that a servant should not serve two masters.
An Ci asked, "What about your left team?"
Dali looked at her and said without hesitation, "I don't want to listen."
"Where's my grandpa?"
"No."
The two consecutive words "I don't want to listen" made the other teenagers break out in a cold sweat for him, and they reflexively looked at An Zhenxiong and Zuo Fei's expressions.
Unfortunately, there were no extra emotions on the faces of their head of the family and Captain Zuo, making it impossible to tell whether they were happy or angry at the moment.
An Ci glanced at Dali, said nothing, turned around and walked back to the first young man on the left.
She continued, "Second question, if I were in danger now and I told you to leave, would you stay and protect me against my orders, or would you obey me and do what I say?"
"Choose one or two."
Meeting her gaze, the boy standing in the first position, having had the experience just now, did not dare to hesitate this time. He said, "I'll choose one."
As a secret guard, he must put the young master's life and safety first. Even if he disobeys orders, he is doing it to protect her.
Just like the first question, An Ci asked one after another, but they all chose one.
The pressure is on Dali again.
To his companions' surprise, he gave the opposite answer to theirs.
"I choose two."
Other teenagers, "..."
As expected, he is powerful.
There's no hope for such a stubborn person.
An Ci smiled, and looked at him with more and more satisfaction. He was indeed the talent she had chosen.
"Why choose two? Reason."
Dali was stunned by the question, his eyes were a little dazed, "Does this need a reason?"
An Ci caught a glimpse of the young men's eyes focused on Dali, some were worried, some were curious, and some were gloating.
"Then why did you choose two?" she asked.
"You are the master, I will do whatever you say." Dali said stupidly.
An Ci pulled his hands out of his pockets and clapped, "Well said."
Then she turned to look at Zuo Fei and made the final decision, "No need to look any further, it's him."
She can protect herself, but she needs someone loyal enough to do things for her.
Zuo Fei looked at Dali deeply and suddenly understood why An Ci chose him.
The most important thing when being a secret guard is: 100% loyalty and unconditional obedience to the master's orders.
Dali is stubborn and straightforward. Although this may put him at a disadvantage when dealing with others, this is precisely his advantage. He is absolutely loyal.
He was elected so suddenly that Dali was unable to react for a moment and had a dull expression on his face.
The other teenagers looked regretful and cast envious glances at Dali. They never expected that Dali, who looked like a fool, could come out on top.
