Beauty Chairwoman’s Bodyguard Expert

Chapter 106: Chapter 105: Military Saber

”Lu Tianxing, that’s a nice name. The young man also looks well, quite sharp. Were you ever a soldier before?”

As the saying goes, first impressions are the most important. Lu Tianxing’s performance really satisfied Bai Zhiqing’s grandmother, He Cailan, a lot more than those pretty boys. He had no arrogance, just a humble and amiable face, very nice indeed.

”Grandma, you’re kidding. But you still look so young. If Zhiqing hadn’t told me, I would have thought you were her sister! You look so young, I wonder how you maintain your youth. When I have time, I definitely need to ask for your advice on this, and then I can help Zhiqing take good care of herself too.”

Lu Tianxing cracked a bright smile, appearing like a sunny, big boy.

Bai Zhiqing, following behind, was dumbfounded, watching her grandmother and Lu Tianxing chatting and laughing together. It seemed as though they were the family members, and she was the outsider.

Bai Zhiqing stared in disbelief at Lu Tianxing, who changed faces so quickly. After all, Lu Tianxing had just been badmouthing Bai Qiao Mountain, and now he was getting along famously with her grandmother.

Especially when Lu Tianxing said her grandmother looked like her sister, Bai Zhiqing almost sat down on the ground dumbfounded, watching Lu Tianxing sucking up to her in astonishment. She had no strength left to criticize; his skin was too thick, thicker than a city wall. Shameless words seemed sincere coming from his mouth. Not going into sales would truly be a waste of talent.

Yet her grandmother actually fell for this act, beaming with joy from all the flattery.

”Zhiqing, why aren’t you talking? Have you forgotten us two old folks now that you have a husband?” He Cailan teased Bai Zhiqing.

Bai Zhiqing’s face blushed at hearing this, ”Grandma....”

”Sister.” At this moment, a beautiful girl standing by spoke up.

”Weiwei.”

Bai Zhiqing smiled at her younger sister, Bai Weiwei.

Bai Weiwei glanced strangely at Bai Zhiqing, then at Lu Tianxing, who was escorting He Cailan to the car. She spoke with a bizarre expression, ”Sister, where did you find this treasure of a brother-in-law? His butt-kissing skills are top-notch; I’ve never seen grandma so happy. But while this trick works on grandma, it won’t work as well on grandpa. Grandpa dislikes these sycophantic types the most. Just you wait! I guarantee this guy is going to get his comeuppance.”

”I hope so!”

Bai Zhiqing felt weak. She realized that inviting Lu Tianxing was a mistake. Since her grandmother met Lu Tianxing, she felt completely forgotten. It was as if Lu Tianxing was her real grandson, and she was just an outsider.

”No way, even grandpa is falling for this guy’s act? How is that possible? Could it be that grandpa is so eager to have a grandson that he doesn’t care whether it’s a mule or a horse, he’s accepting them all?”

Suddenly, Bai Weiwei was dumbstruck by the scene in front of her, feeling an urge to vomit blood. She had just said Lu Tianxing would face defeat with the old man, and now she was promptly proven wrong. Could things change this quickly?

Bai Zhiqing heard Bai Weiwei’s exclamation and looked to the side subconsciously, immediately freezing in place like Bai Weiwei, her beautiful eyes revealing a hint of disbelief.

Next to the BMW X5, Grandpa Qiao Shan looked at Lu Tianxing helping He Cailan into the car, a flicker of doubt crossing his mind. Then, as if struck by a realization, he looked at Lu Tianxing with astonishment, lowering his voice, ”Military Saber?”

Lu Tianxing’s expression changed as he instinctively looked up at Qiao Shan, a flash of surprise in his eyes. Military Saber was his former code name, but it had been a long time since anyone had called him that. This old man actually knew his former code name—did he know him?

Lu Tianxing paused for a moment, then quickly regained his composure and shook his head, ”Old man, what are you talking about? What’s this about a military saber? I don’t understand what you’re saying.”

Surprised by Lu Tianxing’s response, Qiao Shan laughed heartily, ”Good, good, not bad at all. Zhiqing has quite the eye. I approve of you as my granddaughter’s husband. Hahaha, today is the happiest day of my life. If those old geezers knew that you were my granddaughter’s husband, they would surely be green with envy, drooling with jealousy. Hahaha, rest assured, whether Zhiqing is willing or not, I’ve recognized you as my grandson-in-law, and no one can take that away.”

After speaking, Qiao Shan gave Lu Tianxing a hearty pat on the shoulder and boarded the car with a cheerful smile.

Bai Weiwei watched with her mouth agape, taking a long time to snap back to reality, mumbling, ”Sis, are you sure this is some random husband you picked, not carefully selected? Grandpa is so stubborn, yet he was convinced just like that? Weren’t we supposed to present a stern face and put him to the test on the flight? Where did that go? Is this what ’presenting a stern face’ looks like? I’m completely taken by surprise here.”

”How would I know? I’m not a worm in his belly.”

Bai Zhiqing glanced at Bai Weiwei and, for some reason, suddenly felt a great sense of relief wash over her, as if a heavy stone had been lifted from her chest.

Lu Tianxing gave a wry smile as he helped Qiao Shan into the car, thinking no wonder Bai Zhiqing said he could dodge the situation if he could; his identity was a military secret. Only the big shots in the military had the privilege to know his identity. The fact that Bai Zhiqing’s grandfather knew his identity showed just how distinguished his former position had been.

Shaking his head slightly, Lu Tianxing turned around and shouted, ”Wife, come over, we’re leaving. What are you still doing standing there? Do you plan to walk home?”

”Coming, brother-in-law.”

Before Bai Zhiqing could speak, Bai Weiwei had already answered, appearing by Lu Tianxing’s side with springy steps, sizing him up and asking with mischievous curiosity, ”So you’re my brother-in-law? Not much to look at, huh? Not as handsome as those fresh young faces, a bit dark-skinned, barely passable. Brother-in-law, tell me, how did you get my sister to fall for you? Did she pursue you, or was it you who went after her? How did you both confess your feelings? Was it in a world abloom with flowers, by the seaside, or perhaps at a crossing under the traffic lights? Was it romantic, were there any witnesses...”

Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Weiwei, who fired off question after question like a machine gun, feeling utterly frustrated. Was this girl really born from the same father as Bai Zhiqing? Their personalities were worlds apart; Bai Zhiqing was cool as ice, while this little aunt-in-law was simply infuriating. What did she mean by him being dark, not as handsome as young idols? What did a little kid know? This was a healthy bronze color, she had no discernment at all. He really wanted to grab her and spank her.

But then again, this little aunt-in-law’s butt was very~perky; spanking it would probably feel nice to the hand, quite elastic.

Lu Tianxing sized up Bai Weiwei with a few tsk-tsks in his mind but showed none of it on his face, giving a sheepish grin as he said, ”Unless you have another sister, I think I’m probably your brother-in-law. As for how I managed to pursue your sister, it’s quite a long story. Actually, I’m your sister’s personal~assistant, you know the saying: ’Those who live near the water get the moon first’. Maybe it’s because I have a very manly appearance, which fits the standards of your sister’s ideal future husband, so on a dark and windy night, your sister confessed to me, asking me to be her boyfriend. Do you know what I said?”

Lu Tianxing looked at Bai Weiwei with an air of mystery, tantalizing her curiosity.
