At dawn, a ray of light slowly rises from the horizon.
Qin Bai stepped off the plane and stretched.
Turning to him, he asked, "Dumbfish, when did the plane land?"
"No, I've fallen asleep too."
Yu Xiaoyu still looked dazed, her eyes filled with confusion.
It's not scary to look bad in public; what's scary is waking up in the morning and being seen with your bare face without makeup.
However, this situation doesn't seem to exist for this fish at all.
She had no makeup, her clothes were wrinkled, and a few unruly hairs stood up on her head, but this did not affect her appearance at all; in fact, it made her look even cuter.
Qin Bai cupped her face in his hands and leaned closer to look at her closely.
Yu Xiaoyu immediately woke up with a start, her eyes widening instantly.
"Why...why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
"Yes, there is something there."
She hurriedly wiped her face a few times: "Is there any more?"
"Hmm." Qin Bai nodded seriously, "It's still quite pretty."
Dumb Fish: (?°?°?)
Did you just get praised?
I think so.
Yohohohohoho~~~
I'm so lucky to have such a happy thing happen to me when I wake up in the morning.
The little voice inside my head is already so happy it's started spinning around in circles.
Just then, footsteps sounded behind them, and a dozen bodyguards stopped behind the two.
Qin Bai released his hands from holding the dazed little fish face and turned to look at the group with displeasure.
So annoying.
Can't you see couples being affectionate here?
How could you guys have the nerve to stand so close and watch the drama unfold?
The head bodyguard was a young man in his early twenties, dressed in brown casual clothes. He looked refined and had a strong scholarly air about him.
Unlike other bodyguards, his skin wasn't tanned from years of training or missions; on the contrary, it was quite fair.
When their eyes met, Qin Bai's disdain was clearly visible.
Then, with his hands in his pockets, he walked past him and went on his own.
Qin Bai raised an eyebrow.
Oh.
Is he really that good at putting on airs?
Anyone who didn't know better would think you were the boss.
He looked at Yu Xiaoyu: "Do you know this bodyguard?"
"I don't recognize you. You're probably new here. Is there a problem?"
"Oh, it's nothing."
Qin Bai walked up to a middle-aged man.
"Excuse me, was that your captain just now?"
The middle-aged man said, "That's right."
"He seemed to be walking on air. Could he have gotten in through connections? Can you protect Yu Xiaoyu?"
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man immediately objected.
With a dark complexion, he said, "Mr. Qin, rest assured, although our captain has only recently arrived at the Yu family, he has practiced martial arts in the deep mountains since childhood. If it is a cold weapon, I believe no one in the capital can surpass his assassination skills."
Qin Bai narrowed his eyes.
He gleaned a great deal of useful information from just one sentence.
His arrival at the Yu family indicates a cooperative relationship between them. This mission is challenging, which is why Yu Shui invited him over.
Practicing martial arts deep in the mountains, with guidance from a master, one's martial arts skills are definitely not low.
Assassination, meaning that person is an assassin.
To sum it up in one sentence.
This is exactly like the male protagonist in a novel who descends from the mountain after becoming a master.
Thinking of this, Qin Bai's eyes lit up, and he exuded a sly and mischievous aura.
I never expected the Yu family to give me such a big gift.
If I were to get him... ugh! To have him as my bodyguard, I wouldn't have to worry about the safety of my little darlings anymore.
Qin Bai continued, "What's your captain's name?"
"Gu Zichen".
"Hehe, a very nice name."
Qin Bai turned and walked forward.
Confirmed.
This guy definitely has the makings of a leading man; you can tell just from his name.
As I walked out of the airport, I could see Gu Zichen standing in front of the signpost, scratching his head and looking up and down from time to time.
Qin Bai walked over curiously and took a look.
Black and white directional signs indicate the location of airport exits and facilities inside.
After looking at it for a while, it doesn't seem to be anything special.
"Hey Lao Gu, what are you looking at?"
"Huh? I... I was just looking around."
"You didn't misread how to get to the exit, did you?"
Gu Zichen's expression changed drastically, and he loudly protested, "How could that be? I... I just wanted to see if there was any danger here."
"Oh, I've learned something new. So directional signs can serve this purpose too."
Qin Bai smiled and narrowed his eyes.
It turns out this guy has no sense of direction.
Saying he can't distinguish east from west or north from south is actually being kind.
“Come with me. Kyoto is too big. If you walk onto the overpass by yourself, you might starve to death on it.”
Gu Zichen pursed his lips as he watched his retreating figure.
Do you think I'll starve to death?
joke.
I got angry with my master back then and survived drinking dew in the mountains for a month. I refuse to believe I can die in this concrete jungle.
Sitting in the lounge, Qin Bai checked the time.
Yu Xiaoyu asked curiously, "Are you waiting for someone?"
"Hmm, 30 seconds left."
"What's the meaning?"
Qin Bai stood up: "Let's go. Five minutes have already passed. If you don't want to come out and meet, there's no need to wait."
"Huh? Did 30 seconds go by that fast?" Yu Xiaoyu skipped after him and walked outside.
A middle-aged man hiding in the shadows watched Qin Bai's departing figure and sneered.
