Chapter 500: Lady, Please Behave Yourself
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Shen Feng entered the villa, she was frightened by the sight of three burly men sitting on the floor with bare upper bodies. They wore tattered leather shorts on their lower halves and had scars that criss-crossed their bodies. She made the most feminine gesture Ren Baqian had yet to see from her by retreating backward and crossing her arms.
Although she was a lady, she looked like a man.
Ren Baqian scrutinized her from head to toe and asked, “You are flat-chested—what’s there to cover?”
“Boss, you are too mean.” Shen Feng glared at him fiercely.
“Honest advice grates on the ears, good medicine is bitter, and the truth may not be pleasant. Please do not take it to heart.”
Shen Feng glared at Ren Baqian again before asking, “Who are they… ?”
“Your colleagues, my bodyguards. Recently, I have found that Earth is very unsafe,” Ren Baqian explained.
“Bodyguards?” Shen Feng glanced at the three men who were fierce looking, broad-shouldered, had rippling muscles and tendons, and bore various kinds of scars.
They would give you the creeps, especially when they occasionally turned to look at you coldly.
With this type of person around, nobody would try to be funny.
“Did you bring extra large clothes? Where’s the tailor?” Ren Baqian asked.
Shen Feng carried in some bags from the ground outside the door and brought in a lady who looked like a young married woman. She wasn’t that pretty, but she looked magnanimous and displayed two dimples when greeting others.
“Hello, I’m Jin He from Jin He Tailor,” the young lady introduced herself.
“Well, please make some clothes for these three men.” Ren Baqian gestured at the three men behind him. “Come over and let her take your measurements.”
“Ah!” At that moment, Jin He saw the three bear-like men behind Ren Baqian. She had a fright and then her eyes lit up.
When the three got up, dragons seemed to be slithering under their skin as their muscles rippled nonstop. In addition, the scars on their bodies made them even more intimidating.
“Sir Ren!”
“Change the way you address me!” Ren Baqian turned his head to glance at three of them. “It sounds rather strange.”
“Why don’t you call me…” Ren Baqian pondered. The empress was the boss, so who was he? The boss’s wife?
“Address me as Second Boss.”
“Second Boss!” Although the three of them didn’t know what this term meant, they were able to adapt.
“Who is the Big Boss?” Shen Feng purposely asked.
“The wife of the second boss,” Ren Baqian said without thinking.
“You really beat around the bush!” Shen Feng smiled.
Ren Baqiain also felt that he was being roundabout, but he had no choice. Shen Feng could call him boss directly, but if these three called him boss, what would they call the empress in the future? The boss’s wife? This way of addressing him wasn’t bad, and Ren Baqian very much liked to hear it.
However, it was easy to get beaten up.
“Stand properly and let her take your measurements.” Ren Baqian pointed to the spot where the three men were supposed to stand. Next, Jin He took out various kinds of tools from the bag she had with her and prepared to measure them.
Ren Baqian flipped through the clothes brought by Shen Feng. There were oversized jeans, extra large jackets, and giant T-shirts with various patterns. He could instantly transform them into hip hop singers by giving each of them a metal chain to wear around their neck.
“The clothes that fit this type of physique are usually made to order, and it is already quite good that these could be bought.” Shen Feng hid beside Ren Baqian as she spoke. She watched the three burly men warily because they intimidated her with their presence.
Moreover, she knew something that ordinary people didn’t know, and this made her very vigilant toward them.
However, she still asked, “Where did you find these people?”
“Well, a few days ago, I was traveling in a valley and discovered a village. The people there are so poor that they don’t have enough food to eat and have to depend on the primitive method of hunting for food. Our nation said that those who get rich first should pull others along to prosperity. The ancients said that the successful should help others succeed.
Seeing that they are living such a hard life, I recruited them as bodyguards since their appearance is suitable. Even if they can’t fight, their appearance is good enough to frighten people off,” said Ren Baqian as he rattled like a train.
Shen Feng was rather skeptical of what she heard. Were there villages where food was scarce? If he could pick any villages for her, she was certain they would have enough food. Those who got rich first should pull others along to prosperity? This wasn’t wrong, but it sounded strange coming from his mouth!
How was it possible that these three weren’t capable of fighting? She estimated that even an elite military force wouldn’t be a match for these three.
Their murderous looks were enough to let one know who they were.
An unhappy guard raised his fist and shouted, “Hey, don’t touch me! It’s itchy! Do you see my fist which is as big as a bowl? Do you want to try it?”
“The measurements must be meticulous and done properly. If done poorly, the reputation of my shop would be damaged. How did you develop such muscles? They are really strong!” The last two sentences were spoken in a coquettish tone.
It was Ren Baqian’s turn to feel awkward.
He saw Jin He touching the bodyguard all over.
Why are you touching his chest and abdominal muscles when you are just taking his measurements?
The guard’s face turned red with fury.
Both of them were trembling.
That guard wanted to beat her up, but was under orders by Ren Baqian not to move. As a result, he trembled.
Jin He, why are you trembling?
“Where did you find her?” Ren Baqian looked angrily at Shen Feng.
“Jin He Tailor is famous. I thought you wanted custom-made clothes, so I specially found a famous tailor for you.” Shen Feng coughed twice after saying this.
“Cough, cough! How much longer will it take?”
“I haven’t finished measuring this guy. What’s the hurry?” Jin He asked as she pinched the guard on his back.
“Very solid and firm!” Jin He gasped in admiration.
“Just stand straight!” Ren Baqian spoke hurriedly when he saw that the guard had a murderous look.
“We aren’t selling our bodies or performing. Lady, please behave yourself,” Ren Baqian said.
“Touching is unavoidable when making measurements. I have never met people who are so fussy before. There are a few men here, yet you are afraid that I will take advantage of you!” Jin He retorted.
We aren’t afraid, but we are being taken advantage of, Ren Baqian said in his heart. He had just seen with his own eyes that a man couldn’t do anything once a woman became flirtatious.
However, she was very bold. She was a tiny person standing in front of three winged cavalry warriors. This was like a teddy bear wanting to molest a Tibetan Mastiff.
Was this Jin He really a tailor? Ren Baqian glanced at Shen Feng again.
Fortunately, after Ren Baqian had spoken, Jin He at least showed some restraint, but she continued to conveniently take advantage of the three of them. After more than ten minutes, she finally completed their measurements.
Even the data on the thickness of their thighs and ankles were recorded.
The more Ren Baqian thought about it, the more he felt that she wasn’t a tailor, but more like a body inspector.
“Mr. Ren, do you want me to make you a suit? Many wealthy businessmen get their clothes from my shop, and the craftsmanship isn’t inferior to those made abroad.”Jin He’s eyes sparkled as she looked at Ren Baqian again.
“Forget it!” Ren Baqian waved his hands. “Make three suits and three sets of sportswear for each person. Then, make another 30 sets with the same measurements!” In the future, Ren Baqian intended to bring along a few more winged cavalry warriors who had similar physiques. There shouldn’t be too many problems fitting them, and it would also prevent some trouble this way.
Shen Feng opened her mouth wide and thought, What? Another 30 sets for ten more people?
“In addition, find me a few cooks. They must know large scale cooking and will be acceptable as long as their cooking skills are passable. Let’s start with ten people!” Ren Baqian continued, “You should contact the real estate developer to find out whether there are nearby houses for sale. I remember that Wang Zhi, who was jailed for financial crimes, had a villa nearby. What’s the situation now?
After adding ten more winged cavalry warriors, this house would obviously not be big enough for them to live in, so Ren Baqian was preparing to find another villa nearby to use as a dormitory.
As for the money… he could always get a loan! He didn’t feel any heartache as he wasn’t using his own money.
Shen Feng was still a bit muddled. Why did he need ten cooks who could do large scale cooking, how many people were coming, and was this an alien invasion of Earth?
