Chapter 2 New Tasks
Zhan Lele and Xia Zixuan are both orphans, and were raised by their masters, so they respected this master who raised themselves, both fathers and mothers. When they knew a little about it, they often talked about his youth from the masters. They also knew that the master was once a national martial arts champion, not that kind of routine, but practical. Later, they transformed into a famous top bodyguard. However, all of this was the past, and now he was just a nagging old man.
"Three-legged cat, hurry up. If you are one minute later, you will be scolded by your master!" Xia Zixuan stood in front of a luxurious villa, waved her hand at Zhan Lele behind her and shouted.
Zhan Lele was walking panting with the bag that was bigger than her. The ten-kilometer foot was killing her life. In addition, she was carrying such a big bag, how could she still live is considered to be extremely vital.
"Teacher...Senior sister...I...I can't do it anymore...I really can't walk..." Zhan Lele was already relying on his willpower to move forward. Finally, when he was about to reach the door of the villa, his eyes turned dark and he fell down.
However, Zhan Lele did not fall to the ground because Xia Zixuan reached out to help her up, pointed her finger at her small forehead, and smiled lovingly: "Three-legged cat, it's not bad. You can walk with a big bag for so long before you fall down. It seems that your physical strength has been greatly enhanced."
Just as the two sisters helped each other to the front of the villa, the electronic door of the villa slowly opened with a squeak, and then an old man with silver hair and a white floral shirt, hunched over like a lobster, stood behind the door with his hands behind his back, waiting for their arrival.
"Cough cough...cough cough..." A light cough came, and the old man clenched his fist under his mouth, then looked at the two of them with a blame, saying, "You two are late for a minute and twenty-five seconds. Tell me, what should I do if I want to be my teacher this time?!"
When Zhan Lele heard the old man say this, he immediately threw the big bag in front of the old man, and shouted angrily: "Old man, take it yourself. It would be great if I could carry such a heavy bag back alive. If you didn't want me to bring you so many specialties, would I be late?!"
"Haha, just kidding, who will follow us three?" The old man's expression immediately became like a naughty boy. He reached out to stroke the back of his head, smiled, and then said excitedly to the two of them, "Lele, Xuanxuan, hurry up, come into the house and sit down. You haven't come back to see me for a long time. The master misses you so much."
The entire villa lobby is the same as Zhan Lele and Xia Zixuan have been with him before, without any change. However, the flower style in the pot is now blooming very vigorously, and the entire hall is filled with a faint fragrance of flowers. The feeling of a long-standing home makes Zhan Lele and Xia Zixuan feel happy.
"Old man, what are you going to do when you call me and my senior sister back so anxiously?" Zhan Lele sat on the sofa and rubbed his almost sore calves while looking at the old man complainingly.
Xia Zixuan also looked at the old man with a curious look and asked, "Master, what's the matter that can't be said on the phone? Do you have to call me and the three-legged cat home in person?"
However, the old man sat on the sofa, drinking a cup of fragrant tea, and then smiled at his two apprentices with a treacherous smile: "Hehe, if not, will you both be willing to come back and see me, old man? I, old man, live in such a big villa alone, you don't know how to feel sorry for..." As he said that, the old man's voice choked up and his eyes were red.
Seeing this, Zhan Lele quickly comforted him and said, "Okay, Master, we are wrong. We will definitely go home often in the future, but you have to tell us why we want us to come back. We won't really just want us to come back to see you. I've turned down everything in the kindergarten and rushed back. If you don't give the right reason, I'll be angry." As he said that, Zhan Lele's pretty face wrinkled tightly.
The old man loved his little apprentice the most, so he was a little spoiled. He waved his hand and said, "Haha, I'm kidding, how could I use this reason to summon you two precious apprentices back? Of course, there are more serious things to do." As he said that, the old man took out a stack of documents from the cabinet behind him, took out a photo, placed it on the document, and pushed them away.
Zhan Lele glanced at the person in the photo and saw that the man in the photo was about 20 years old. He looked so delicate that he seemed to be carefully carved by a first-class sculptor. His slender eyes were filled with a faint mist, as if he was a dark lake. The man in the photo was gently stroking his forehead with his slender fingers, as if he was thinking about something.
"Wow, who is this male star? She is so beautiful?!" Zhan Lele always yearns for beautiful things, especially those handsome men. When she saw this photo, she immediately picked it up and became a fool.
Xia Yuxuan was just the opposite. She had no good feelings for such a man with too delicate appearance. She liked men with heroic and thick lines.
The old man looked at Zhan Lele's ecstatic appearance and smiled sly: "Lele, since you like the people in this photo so much, then you will do this, okay?"
The joyful look that originally appeared on Zhan Lele's face. When she heard the old man's words, her heart tightened instantly and she quickly threw the photo on the table.
"No! No!" Zhan Lele quickly waved his hands and pushed them down, saying, "Old man, you should tell me what's going on, so I feel more confident! I don't want to be sold by your trick!"
Xia Zixuan sat next to her and asked curiously: "Master, who is this man? Will this man actually attract your attention?"
The old man picked up the photo, and his expression suddenly became a little solemn, saying, "The man in the photo is Teng Weixiang, the son of my savior. Now his life is in danger. My savior asks me for help and asks me to take action to protect his son again." Then, the old man looked at Zhan Lele and Xia Zixuan, and smiled sly, "But you have seen it, where can I protect anyone now? It's almost the same to be protected by someone, so... hehe... I want to hand this matter over to one of you."
