Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 840 The Eccentric Bodyguard

However, this time, payment is required. Even if Long Liandong wanted to do things for free again, Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia would never agree to it again.

"When...are you getting engaged?" Long Liandong continued eating with her head down, but her tone was slightly more emotional than before.

Lu Yuanqiu: "The exact date hasn't been confirmed yet, but it'll probably be during winter break. Make sure you're not late!"

Liu Wangchun: "She's always the first one to arrive at every event, as if she's afraid of missing anyone for even a second..."

The second half of the sentence was mumbled very softly, only because Bai Qingxia was present; otherwise, Liu Wangchun would not have allowed Long Liandong to be in the same frame with her in a dignified manner.

But Long Liandong still heard it. She lowered her head and ate her noodles, but this time her movements were far less elegant than before.

"By the way, where's my noodles?" Lu Yuanqiu asked, looking up.

Bai Qingxia: "It's over there, I'll go get it."

"Be careful of the burn."

Lu Yuanqiu's gaze lingered on Bai Qingxia's back for a long time before he looked away. He let out a soft breath and sent a message to Zheng Yifeng.

Lu Yuanqiu: Bai Qingxia and I will probably get engaged during the winter break, so please be there.

After he finished posting, he glanced at the previous one.

Zheng Yifeng hasn't replied to the last message for two days.

"I heard that Liang Jingfeng hasn't spoken to you yet?" Su Miaomiao seemed to be tired from typing, so she stopped and rubbed her slender fingers before asking Lu Yuanqiu.

Lu Yuanqiu nodded: "Yes, it actually fits his personality quite well, and I expected this outcome."

Liu Wangchun crossed his arms and said, "What's so difficult about that? Go up there and tell him, 'If you keep pretending to be mute here, I'm going to the company and firing your father.'"

What a rhyming phrase… Su Miaomiao was impressed but didn’t understand it.

Liu Wangchun raised an eyebrow, a smug smile playing on his lips, and shook his head: "Absolutely~ a cure-all. Do you believe he'll turn around and talk to you the moment he sees you?"

Lu Yuanqiu was silent for a moment, then rarely expressed his agreement: "I really believe that, and it also fits Liang Shao's personality."

"But I won't say that."

"Boring... If it were me, I'd punch him left and right. Dare to give me that attitude? I'll give him a piece of my mind..."

When Liu Wangchun saw Bai Qingxia approaching, he stopped talking abruptly and raised his hand to pretend to fan away a mosquito that wasn't actually there.

Lu Yuanqiu almost burst out laughing.

Long Liandong: "When will the endorsement deal start? I need to prepare."

Lu Yuanqiu: "Let's wait until we produce the first batch of qualified products."

"it is good."

Long Liandong nodded, her gaze falling on Bai Qingxia's left ring finger before naturally looking away. She raised her hand and stirred the noodles in her bowl with her chopsticks, making an unusual, rather unladylike gesture while eating in front of others.

……

The machines in the workshop were not all moved away until the 26th, and the manufacturer was contacted for unified adjustments. They couldn't give a definite answer on when it would be finished. During this time, Lu Yuanqiu planned to go to Aunt Zhang's hometown with Bai Songzhe and the others.

For some reason, the police investigation into Lin Ping'an's hometown was progressing very slowly, with no substantial progress to date. Lu Yuanqiu asked a few times but then gave up and bought five plane tickets to Taishi.

There are two things worth mentioning here. First, Bai Songzhe brought a burly bodyguard. Second, this was Bai Qingxia's first time flying.

Lu Yuanqiu held back his laughter the whole way because of her timid appearance. Before buying the plane ticket, this girl had been strongly opposed to flying. He didn't know which country's plane crash news she had seen or which movie about air disasters she had watched, but she was worried about the fact that if a plane crashed, it would be beyond saving.

She really cherishes her life.

Not only Lu Yuanqiu wanted to laugh, but his father-in-law Bai Songzhe also couldn't help but chuckle. It was as if he saw a reflection of his childhood self in Bai Qingxia.

Although Aunt Zhang had never sat there before, she appeared much calmer than Bai Qingxia. Perhaps Aunt Zhang felt more joy and anticipation than nervousness.

Let's go back to the bodyguard who accompanied them.

It's ridiculous, really ridiculous. This guy was dressed like a man in black, wearing a black suit, a headset, and sunglasses the whole time, as if he was afraid people wouldn't recognize him as a bodyguard. Of course, that didn't really matter.

Most importantly, I don't know if Bai Songzhe gave him the instruction to "prohibit all living beings from having physical contact with Bai Qingxia" before he set off. Whenever he sees someone walking towards Bai Qingxia, he will subconsciously reach out to stop them.

That wasn't the most outrageous part. The most outrageous thing was that after Lu Yuanqiu finished using the restroom at the airport, he quietly approached Bai Qingxia, who was sitting in her seat, from behind, intending to cover her eyes with his hand. However, before he could even touch Bai Qingxia, the bodyguard suddenly turned his head alertly, then leaped over the seat, grabbed Lu Yuanqiu's arm, and pinned him to the ground as if he were being subdued.

At that moment, Lu Yuanqiu's eyes widened as round as copper bells.

Bai Qingxia's eyes widened into copper bells.

Although the bodyguard immediately let go and apologized, Lu Yuanqiu was still in a daze for a long time, and his arms felt numb and dislocated.

The key point is that after getting up, Lu Yuanqiu did not see any intention to reprimand the bodyguard on Bai Songzhe's face. Instead, he noticed that the old man secretly curled up the corners of his mouth.

Is this bodyguard here to protect against bad guys or his son-in-law?!
"I'm so sorry, Young Master Lu."

After sitting back down, Lu Yuanqiu saw the bodyguard extend his right hand to him. Lu Yuanqiu thought the guy wanted to shake hands and make peace, but as soon as he touched it, the bodyguard forcefully pulled his wrist back and then shoved it forward. Lu Yuanqiu's arm made a cracking sound, and he was dumbfounded. The bodyguard then explained in a cool tone: "Your arm was just dislocated, but it's fine now."

Lu Yuanqiu: "..."

It really did dislocate.

Bai Qingxia, feeling sorry for Lu Yuanqiu, quickly pulled him closer, glaring at the bodyguard with resentment. Lu Yuanqiu, on the other hand, timidly hugged Bai Qingxia, glancing at the bodyguard with fear as he burrowed into her chest.

Aunt Zhang silently turned her head away, and saw Bai Songzhe's upturned lips fall down again.

Fortunately, the bodyguard with a head full of muscles was seated in a different row on the plane.

Bai Qingxia didn't dare sit by the window, so Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Songzhe sandwiched her between them. Before the plane even took off, Bai Qingxia had already turned on her own flight mode. After that, she looked around warily and turned on the flight modes of the two men next to her.

Bai Songzhe smiled indulgently.

Lu Yuanqiu: "It hasn't flown yet, let me watch for a while longer..."

"No."

Bai Qingxia fastened her seatbelt, refusing decisively.

Lu Yuanqiu glanced back helplessly. The bodyguard wearing sunglasses looked like the Terminator, his neck stiffly turned, his expression cold as he faced this way. Damn, that was creepy. Lu Yuanqiu immediately turned his head back.

"Uncle Bai, where did you find this bodyguard?"

"Your second uncle recommended it."

“Then I really think he and my second master are a match made in heaven.” Lu Yuanqiu said with a twitch of his lips.
