Chapter 703: Romance
“What are you guys talking about?” Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao walked into the room hand in hand.
Xiao Letong ran over, hugged Xiao Lingyu’s leg, and said with a smile, “Great-grandfather wants to matchmake Uncle Xiao Wang with someone. He’s suggesting Auntie An. But Uncle Xiao Wang said that a rough person like him isn’t good enough for Auntie An, but great-grandfather said he is!”
Xiao Lingyu raised her eyebrows, then said with a smile, “Oh, I see. Xiao Wang, grandfather is right. You are a talented person with good skills. How can you not be good enough for Xiaohui?” At this point, Xiao Lingyu blinked and said mysteriously, “In fact, Xiaohui has liked you for a long time. Only a fool like you didn’t realize it.”
“Huh?” Xiao Wang was a little dumbfounded. “How… How is this possible?”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “You’re really a blockhead. Think about it. Haven’t Xiaohui been asking you to help her from time to time?”
Xiao Wang said in a daze, “Yes, she asked me to help her move heavy objects a few times. Is there a problem with that?”
Xiao Lingyu wanted to roll her eyes when she heard this. Then, she said, “Our company is so far away from here, and there are plenty of young workers in the company. Does Xiaohui need to come all the way here to ask you to help?”
Gong Tianhao wanted to laugh. This simple and honest boy was really quite cute.
Before Xiao Wang could understand what was going on, Old Master Gong knocked on his head and said bitterly, “You Silly Blockhead. Clearly, the girl came over here to ask for your help so that she could chat with you. How could you not get it?” After that, Old Master Gong turned around and said to Xiao Lingyu with a grin, “Yu ‘Er, since Xiaohui has such feelings for Xiao Wang, how about we set them to go out for a meal?”
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said with a smile, “Hehe, grandfather, that’s not a problem, but I have to ask Xiaohui first.”
Old Master Gong immediately urged, “Then hurry up and ask.” Then, Old Master Gong thought of something and turned to look at Xiao Zhang, who was about to escape. He asked with a smile, “Xiao Zhang, do you have a girl you like? Tell me, and I will arrange it for you too.”
Xiao Letong covered his mouth and said with a smile, “Great grandfather, you’re really addicted to being a matchmaker.” Then, Xiao Letong also teased Xiao Zhang and said, “Uncle Xiao Zhang, uncle Xiao Wang has Auntie Xiaohui. What about you?”
Xiao Zhang scratched his head in embarrassment and said, “No… no!” Taoyuan Village was filled with pretty women. However, his mission was to protect Old Master Gong, and he really didn’t put his attention on finding a girlfriend, so he naturally didn’t notice any of the girls.
When Old Master Gong heard this, he said somewhat disappointedly, “No?” Then, he said excitedly, “No matter. I’ll find some girls for you. If you like any of them, tell me. I’ll try to matchmake for you.”
Xiao Zhang said with a flushed face, “Old master, that won’t do. Our main mission is to protect your safety. We absolutely can’t let anything interfere with our private life.”
Old Master Gong waved his hand and said, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Nothing will happen. Plus, you two aren’t young anymore. I can’t have you stay by my side and then sacrifice his life happiness for me.” This was the reason Old Master Gong had the duration contract with his bodyguards. He didn’t want to delay their lives.
Furthermore, his grandson was already old enough to protect him.
When Xiao Zhang Heard Old Master Gong’s words, his expression immediately panicked. He said anxiously, “Old Master, are you going to chase us away?”
When Xiao Wang heard this, he looked at Old Master Gong in panic and said nervously, “Old master, I…”
Old Master Gong waved his hand and said with a smile, “You don’t have to be nervous. I’m not trying to chase you away. Even if you fall in love, you can still stay by my side.”
Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang immediately fell silent.
At this moment, Xiao Wang said again, “Old Master Gong, I… I don’t want to drag the lady down!” Their jobs meant that they couldn’t accompany their girlfriends often. Moreover, they had to be ready to sacrifice their lives for Old Master Gong.
For example, during the two years when Gong Tianhao was in a coma, there were assassination attempts on Old Master Gong. Xiao Wang was lucky, but Xiao Zhang was hit in his chest by a bullet. Fortunately, it didn’t injure his vital parts. Otherwise, his life would have been lost.
Old Master Gong was silent for a moment before he sighed and said, “Since that’s the case, then forget it.”
As long as Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang didn’t make any major mistakes in these six years, Old Master Gong wouldn’t chase them away. It wouldn’t look good on their resume.
“However, Xiao Zhang, if you really have a girl that you like, you can tell me. After we explain your situation to the young lady, if the young lady doesn’t mind, you can try dating her,” Old Master Gong said.
Xiao Zhang nodded and said, “Alright, Old Master!”
Xiao Wang opened his mouth but didn’t seem to know how to start.
Old Master Gong seemed to understand Xiao Wang’s thoughts and directly said to Xiao Lingyu, “Yu ‘Er, why don’t you inform Xiaohui about Xiao Wang’s situation first? If she really doesn’t mind, then this old man will make the decision for them.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Alright, grandfather!”
Xiao Wang became nervous and said, “No… no… There’s no need.” He really didn’t want to harm such a good girl.
However, Old Master Gong said, “You’ve been by my side for four years. If you really find a girl you like and the girl doesn’t mind, they will wait for you for two years. In the future, your future will be bright. I believe that no girl will be willing to give up on you.”
Old Master Gong’s bodyguards were all the best in the field. Once their missions were fulfilled, they would be promoted. Their futures were bright.
Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang fell silent again.
Whether they stayed by Old Master Gong’s side for six or ten years, it was up to Old Master Gong.
Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang nodded and said, “Thank you, Old Master.”
At this moment, Xiao Letong said very seriously, “Uncle Xiao Wang, Uncle Xiao Zhang, can you teach me martial arts in the future? That way, I can also protect great-grandfather.” Although he could already protect his great-grandfather, he still needed an excuse.
Gong Tianhao narrowed his eyes and looked at his son thoughtfully. He felt a little strange in his heart. Even though his son was reborn like Yu ‘Er, he was only five years old when he died. Even if he was reborn, his IQ should be that of a child. However, the intelligence and wit that his son displayed were much higher than that. However, no matter what, this was still his son.
When Old Master Gong heard Xiao Letong, he was immediately moved and said, “Tong Tong is really filial. Grandfather is really touched. But Tong Tong, learning martial arts from uncles is very tiring.”
The training that Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang received was not ordinary training. Their training was several times more tiring than ordinary people’s training.
Xiao Letong said indifferently, “It’s alright, great-grandfather. I can endure this hardship! I will study and train hard. In the future, I will protect great-grandfather, grandfather, grandmother, and others. I won’t let anyone bully you.”
“Yes, Yes. My Tong Tong is very sensible!” Old Master Gong said with reddened eyes, “You aren’t afraid of hardship, but great-grandfather’s heart will ache!”
Xiao Letong said with conviction and seriousness, “Great-grandfather, a man has to endure hardship to grow! I want to be a great man in the future!”
“Good!” Old Master Gong exclaimed, “Tong Tong is truly the Gong Family heir. Then great-grandfather will support you!”
“Thank you, great-grandfather!” Xiao Letong said happily.
