Chapter 119.1: 趙家

[Zhao Family]

---

Looking at Gu Lang’s smile, Chen Xing instantly froze, the expression on his face looked extraordinarily silly.

 

Gu Lang looked at his appearance like this, gently laughed again, and then picked up the medicine in his hand and drank it in one gulp.

 

Until Gu Lang finished drinking his bowl of medicine, Chen Xing seemed to suddenly come back to his senses, put away his still slightly silly expression, and hand over the dessert in his hand.

 

Gu Lang looked at the desserts handed over in front of him, picked a piece of neither too big or not too small cake, ate it, followed by a piece of cake that Chen Xing usually love to eat before he sent to his lips, in his stunned gaze, he warmly said: “You also eat a little (to fill your stomach).”

 

The tip of his nose smelled the fragrance from the cakes in Gu Lang’s hand, Chen Xing moved his lips, and finally ate the cakes in Gu Lang’s gesture of holding the cakes.

 

After watching Chen Xing eat the pastry like a small animal, Gu Lang slowly withdrew his hand, he gently rubbed his fingertips, as if he could still feel the sensation that Chen Xing had unconsciously licked there when he ate the pastry just now.

 

The softness of his tongue, with a touch of wetness, gave him a feeling of electric shock. Thinking of this, Gu Lang’s eyes darkened slightly.

 

Chen Xing tilted his head, looking at Gu Lang staring at his own fingertips’s dazed appearance. He did not quite understand what Gu Lang was doing, but when he thought about the things he thought on the road today, Gu Lang’s strange behavior was thrown out of the back of his mind.

 

Chen Xing looked at Gu Lang who came back to his senses and met his eyes, licked his lips which still had some residue on them, and looked at Gu Lang as he said, “Gu Lang, I have something to discuss with you.”

 

Gu Lang’s line of sight fell on Chen Xing’s closed tightly lips, just now when Chen Xing stretched out his tongue and licked it, he gave birth to a charming thought, but that thought along with Chen Xing’s open mouth, became a little bit retracted.

 

“What’s wrong?”

 

Chen Xing only felt that Gu Lang’s gaze is a little strange, but where it is strange, he could not say it, and he finally come to conclusion, can only be attributed to his own overthinking, he sorted out his way of thoughts, and then immediately said his own ideas, “Let’s hire a few bodyguards ba?”

 

Immediately after Chen Xing said that, he met Gu Lang’s gaze with a little bit of puzzlement. He then quickly thought that perhaps the term ‘bodyguard’ did not exist at this time, so he looked at Gu Lang and explained the term again in words he could understand.

 

“I want to say, I want to hire some people to protect us. After all, those hooligans haven’t been caught yet, and we don’t know what their origins are. If we meet them again next time, we still will be the ones to suffer.”

 

After Gu Lang heard Chen Xing’s words, he immediately understood what he meant, just according to his meaning, he felt that it was not necessary, after all, he already had a bunch of people around him to protect him, it was just inconvenient to show his face.

 

Just before Gu Lang opened his mouth to find a reason to muddle through, he heard Chen Xing in front of him open his mouth again, “You were like that last time, I was really scared, I don’t want something like that to happen again.”

 

Chen Xing thought about it, no matter how much money, even if it is to lose all the money they have earned this period of time, they have to hire a bodyguard. To him now, that money was nothing compared to Gu Lang’s safety.

 

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing frowning, his heart moved, and suddenly realized that this was the first time Chen Xing had told him his worries so frankly. He silently sighed in his heart, and finally lifted his head to look at him, and said in a compromising way, “Okay, do as you wish.”

 

Looking at Chen Xing’s smile after he agreed to it, Gu Lang began to calculate in his heart how to turn his attendants into his guards in this mansion through reasonable means, moreover not to arouse Chen Xing’s suspicion.

 

Thinking about it, it was still a bit troublesome, but looking at Chen Xing’s smile, Gu Lang felt that even if it would be troublesome, he still has to do it, after all, nothing is as important as Chen Xing’s happiness.

 

The two reached an agreement on the matter of hiring a bodyguard to protect the two of them, but Chen Xing still has no idea about the bodyguard industry in this era, so he needs to discuss carefully with Gu Lang about where to hire and how much the price to hire was considered more appropriate.

 

The Zhao Family.

 

The study room of the Zhao family’s Master.

 

Compared to other businessmen with big bellies and round faces, Zhao’s old master is very thin and wears a simple gray clothes, which does not look like a businessman, but rather like a serious teacher, except that when he opens his mouth, his mouth is full of calculating words, which will no longer make people mistake him for a poor scholar.

 

At this moment, the master of the Zhao family was sitting in front of his desk. In front of him were the books for the current season and stood the treasurer of each family too. 

 

In front of them stood the shopkeepers of the different houses, who were all standing there with faces as pale as vegetables (lean and hungry look resulting from vegetarian diet). 

 

Just at this moment, outside the door, there was an urgent knocking sound, along with a young voice, “Master, last time’s matter has a ‘clear picture’ now.”

 

His words were absurd, but it was obvious that Master in the room had already understood what he meant, only to see a few points of displeasure gradually appear on his expressionless face, and finally looked at the people standing in front of him, and coldly said: “Everyone, please take a rest in the side hall for a while! I have some matters to deal with now.”
