Chapter 1272 Never Marry in Life
"Rowan and the others are not young anymore."
Nan Xiang seemed relieved when she heard this. She had thought that she was wondering why Gao Qi was discussing kissing. "Luo Wen? Are you talking about the guard who always carried you around the streets when you were little?"
"It's not that ostentatious..."
It was true that she was too lazy to walk back then, and it was also true that Luo Wen and Luo Xuan always carried her when walking, but... it didn't seem like they were strolling around the streets.
"Of course not! Everyone in the Loushan Academy knows you. You need to be carried when you walk, and you need guards to feed you when you eat. We weren't in the same academy before, and the girls in our academy used to laugh at you. You needed guards to chase you and feed you when you ate. I even had a fight with them because of that."
Ye Qianning: “…”
Some of the past is hard to recall.
"They're just jealous of you. If they were as favored as you and were also Master Chen's personal disciples, they would probably be even more ostentatious than you." Nan Xiang said this before returning to the main topic: "Do you feel that the guards around you are a little old and want to recruit some younger ones?"
Ye Qianning lowered his eyelids and met Nan Xiang's innocent gaze: "No."
"I understand. Don't be stubborn. Old guards are not as flexible as young ones. My father has many newly trained guards. If you want them, I can get them for you." Nan Xiang had a look of seeing through everything.
"no."
Young people are flexible, but their minds are unstable.
Luo Wen, Du Yi, Yingge and the other five have shed their youthful spirit and become more composed, which makes Ye Qianning feel more at ease when they do things.
"Really?"
"Um."
"Then why are you thinking about their age?"
"I just think they're old enough to get married."
Those who are still unmarried between the ages of 27 or 28 are considered to be marrying late.
"Get married?" Nan Xiang was surprised: "You don't want such a good guard? Let them get married?"
Ye Qianning was stunned for a moment and didn't come to his senses.
"Isn't it natural to get married?"
There doesn't seem to be any conflict between getting married and providing protection.
Nan Xiang's eyes widened. "Aning, don't you know that secret guards and personal bodyguards can't get married?"
“……?”
Ye Qianning was really surprised this time: "Why?"
"The duty of a secret guard or personal bodyguard is to protect their master. They can only do so alone. If they have families, they're a burden on their masters. If someone with ulterior motives uses them as a threat, it would be detrimental to the master's family." Nan Xiang explained, "Secret guards are forbidden from marrying throughout their lives. If a personal bodyguard wishes to marry, the master would be considered to have abandoned him."
After listening to this, Ye Qianning understood to some extent that human hearts are unpredictable.
When people have weaknesses, they are easily taken advantage of by others. On one side are relatives, and on the other side are the main family. No one can guarantee what choice the person will make.
"Your father was born and raised in Beijing, and you don't even know this."
Ye Qianning: "People's hearts are indeed difficult to understand."
Nan Xiang: "Who says they aren't? If you still want to use them, then you should give up the idea of marrying them off as soon as possible, lest they be seduced by women and betray you at the slightest whisper."
"A hero is sad because no one cares about him" is what her father often said.
Ye Qianning smiled and changed the subject: "Are you here to help in the west of the city?"
"Of course. Father has grounded me again. Nothing about the events in the west city reached me. I was finally released from my confinement yesterday, and I came to see you immediately today. There are too many people in the capital right now. If you need anything for the construction of the west city, just let me know. I promise to get it for you as soon as possible."
