bodyguard against fate

"What technique?"

"Joochi, Genghis Khan's eldest son," Feng Weida said. "Genghis Khan's wife was once abducted by the enemy. After being rescued, she gave birth to Jochi. Everyone said that Jochi was the enemy's child and should be killed, but Genghis Khan always treated him as his own son—"

"You mean, you want to learn from Genghis Khan?" He Xiuli suddenly realized that not every man had such a broad mind and magnanimity, and she couldn't help but look at Feng Weida with new respect.

"I mean, I want to learn from Genghis Khan's wife," Feng Weida said. "As long as I don't say anything, they'll never know who the child's father is."

"Um?"

He Xiuli thought the effects of the drug from last night hadn't worn off yet, and that she must have either misheard or misunderstood. In any case, she decided to postpone the matter of introducing someone to her until she was more sober.

She would rather doubt that she had taken the wrong medicine than doubt Feng Weida's intelligence.

Chen Ergou said he's in a relationship, but there's a problem: his girlfriend doesn't know about it yet, which is bothering him. He hopes Feng Weida can help him find out Wu Meng's hobbies. Ever since the Black Widow incident, Wu Meng has been avoiding Chen Ergou whenever she sees him, and Chen Ergou hasn't had a chance to explain in person.

"Here's a meal ticket. Do you like fried cicadas?"

"Here's the ticket. What's your view on the situation in the Middle East?"

"Here's your train ticket. Do you like to sleep naked?"

Chen Ergou told him to take the opportunity to ask questions while giving out invoices. Feng Weida kept his word and asked a question while giving out an invoice, leaving Wu Meng completely bewildered.

"Are you here to submit your invoices or to pick me up?" Wu Meng asked.

"To seduce you?"

"Why are you asking me so many questions if you're not going to date me?"

"Ergou wants me to explain to you that the Black Widow he mentioned last time wasn't referring to you—"

"Do you think I can't tell who he's talking about?" Wu Meng said irritably. "If he's not guilty, why doesn't he explain himself to my face?"

"Do you have time after get off work? Er Gou will treat you to a movie." Feng Weida pulled out two movie tickets.

"You're his wingman, aren't you?"

What is a wingman?

"Okay," Wu Meng thought for a moment, accepted the movie ticket, and said, "You'll come with me after get off work."

"I?"

Chen Ergou only told Feng Weida to have Wu Meng accept the movie tickets, but didn't explain what happened next, leaving Feng Weida completely bewildered.

"This is for the movie tickets, it's on me."

Wu Meng handed the money to Feng Weida.

"That Er Gou..."

"Never mind him. Anyway, if you want me to collect movie tickets, you have to come see a movie with me. Otherwise, forget it!"

"Wait while I call and ask—" Feng Weida took out his phone.

"Forget it, that's not sincere—" Wu Meng pretended to be angry.

"I'll watch it with you!" Feng Weida said through gritted teeth.

"Honey, do you think we've gone in the wrong direction?" Jiang Xue asked Wu Renxing.

"What do you mean, wrong direction?" Wu Renxing asked, puzzled.

"What else could it be but your driver!"

"Little Feng?"

After hearing Wu Renxing tell her about Feng Weida catching someone cheating, Jiang Xue realized the reason why Feng Weida was so upset.

"Last time you said he beat his wife after drinking and was sent to a mental hospital. Now it seems the problem wasn't the alcohol at all, but that he saw the adulterers together, which triggered his reaction!"

"I won't allow you to say that—"

"You're angry because I talked to him?"

"I forbid you from calling them adulterers and adulteresses. Watch your words."

"I forgot, we are too—" Jiang Xue smiled awkwardly.

Wu Renxing thought for a moment and said, "You're right. What upset him wasn't the alcohol, it was his wife!"

"So, he's emotionally traumatized. If you want him to have a mental breakdown, you should start with his emotions. Once he has a breakdown, he can take the blame for us!"

"Little Xue'er, you really are a little vixen, you're full of ideas—" Wu Renxing praised, "So how do we provoke him?"

"How could you be so stupid? Go find his ex-wife! Didn't he only give us a chance because he had a falling out with his ex-wife last time?"

"His ex-wife was indeed the best choice, and I considered her too, but she seems to have stopped livestreaming recently; I heard she went on vacation to Southeast Asia—"

"Then I guess he won't be able to come back?" Jiang Xue said disappointedly.

"Even if they come back, it will be a month or two later. That won't solve our immediate problem," Wu Renxing said. "Given Feng Weida's intelligence, I don't think we can hide the fact that he's mentally ill for long. Once He Xiuli finds out, even I will be implicated. We need to act quickly and solve the problem before she finds out!"

"Then what should I do? You can't expect me to seduce Feng Weida, can you?"

Why did you seduce him?

Have you ever heard of pig farming?

"What haven't I heard of pig farming!"

"It's not about raising pigs in the literal sense! I have a female classmate who comes from a fairly ordinary family, but she's beautiful, a campus beauty queen. People lined up to pursue her, including a rich second-generation who gave her a two million yuan card to use as pocket money, and then she won him over within a month..."

"What a pity—"

"What's a pity?"

"It's a pity you didn't meet me—"

"Hey?"

"Just kidding, what happened next?" Wu Renxing asked.

"He went crazy later."

"Crazy?" Although he could vaguely guess, Wu Renxing still wanted to hear Jiang Xue say it herself.

"Because the rich second-generation provided her with all the value while he was pursuing her, she got used to riding in luxury cars, living in mansions, eating abalone and lobster every day, and wearing Gucci and Chanel every day. After the breakup, she could never go back to her past life."

Wu Renxing immediately understood: "You mean, first lure Feng Weida with your beauty, then dump him when he falls for someone else and can't extricate himself. He'll go crazy!"

"My husband is so smart," Jiang Xue sighed. "It seems like I'm the only one who has to make the sacrifice, since he doesn't know me anyway—"

"I won't allow you to do that!"

Wu Renxing is not Feng Weida; he doesn't want to be cuckolded, especially by a fool!

"What other method can we use?"

"Anyway, I'll find a way. Don't bring this up again!"

Chen Ergou watched Feng Weida and Wu Meng walk into the movie theater side by side from afar, feeling a pang of resentment. "You idiot! You stole my job, and now you're stealing my girlfriend! Wu Meng is mine, mine..."

Feng Weida and Chen Ergou explained in WeChat that Chen Ergou asked Sada to keep Wu Meng calm and trick her into going to the movie theater. Five minutes into the movie, Feng Weida "had to pee" and then came back to sit next to Wu Meng as Chen Ergou.

"Ergou, this is all the help I can give you, brother."

Feng Weida thought to himself.

If Chen Ergou hadn't secretly touched Wu Meng's hand, Wu Meng wouldn't have known that a magical transformation had taken place right beside her.

"Where's Feng Weida?" Wu Meng looked around but couldn't find him. So this was the legendary "urine escape"?

"Stop looking, Meng," Chen Ergou said with a beaming smile. "I know you did this just to spite me. Look, here I am, I accept my punishment!"

"Get out of the way!"

Wu Meng showed him no respect and shook off Chen Ergou.

Chen Ergou never imagined that he would lose to Feng Weida. Am I not even as good as a fool?
