Chapter 988: Chapter 985: Personal Bodyguard to the Beautiful CEO
Elder Master Jiang’s eyes also revealed a look of disbelief, obviously not expecting Xu Wendong to find that cigar.
Of course.
That’s not the most important thing.
The most important thing is.
It seemed like Xu Wendong already knew the location of the cigar in advance; otherwise, he couldn’t have found it so precisely.
"Grandpa, did you tell Xu Wendong where the cigar was?" Jiang Xueyao asked.
Elder Master Jiang had an innocent look on his face: "Girl, how could grandpa have told Xu Wendong where the cigar was?"
"Also, the cigar was hidden in the garden by your second uncle based on what you said, and besides our family of three, nobody else knows where the cigar is."
"Even if you doubt your second uncle, there’s no need to suspect me, right?"
Jiang Xueyao naturally wouldn’t suspect her second uncle, because after he hid the cigar, he was under surveillance the whole time and had no chance to tell Xu Wendong its location.
"Perhaps, this little guy can surprise us!" Elder Master Jiang revealed an intriguing smile and made a call to Jiang Chengwu to bring Xu Wendong over.
A moment later.
Jiang Chengwu came in leaning on a cane, bringing Xu Wendong into the room.
"Xu Wendong, how did you know the cigar was hidden in the garden?" Elder Master Jiang asked straight to the point.
Jiang Xueyao’s clear eyes were fixed on Xu Wendong, eager to know the answer.
Xu Wendong replied, "Sir, I deduced the cigar was hidden in the garden based on the scent from Mr. Jiang."
"The scent on me?" Jiang Chengwu was full of surprise.
Xu Wendong replied calmly, "Yes, Mr. Jiang carried the fragrance of flowers, so I concluded you had been to the garden before."
Seeing their shocked expressions, Xu Wendong continued, "I have an exceptionally sensitive sense of smell, highly attuned to scents."
"Cigars and floral fragrances are two entirely different scents, which is how I found the cigar among the flowers."
Though this explanation sounded quite reasonable, Jiang Xueyao still asked, "In that case, let me test you, how many types of flowers are planted in the garden?"
Elder Master Jiang and Jiang Chengwu both rolled their eyes at her, thinking Jiang Xueyao was making things difficult for Xu Wendong.
Even with Xu Wendong’s sharp sense of smell, even the gardener probably wouldn’t know how many kinds of flowers were planted.
Xu Wendong also showed a look of difficulty, as if the question stumped him. After a moment’s thought, he said, "The flowers in bloom this season should be around twenty-five to thirty kinds. I was focused on finding the cigar earlier, so I can’t give an exact number."
"I’m sorry!" Jiang Xueyao said with an amused smile, "Your answer is wrong; the garden has forty-two types of flowers in bloom this season."
Xu Wendong managed a smile, "If today’s test was about differentiating how many kinds of flowers are in the garden, I should be able to give an accurate answer, even if there’s an error, it would not exceed three kinds!"
"Alright," Elder Master Jiang’s voice rang, "Your performance today was very good. From now on, you’ll be Xueyao’s personal bodyguard and driver, with a monthly salary of one hundred thousand."
Xu Wendong said solemnly, "I will certainly ensure Miss Jiang’s safety!"
Elder Master Jiang waved his hand, "Alright, you can go about your business!"
"Grandpa, take care of your health, I’ll come to see you when I have time." Jiang Xueyao lightly kissed him on the forehead, then turned around, walked out twisting her sensual figure clad in high heels.
Xu Wendong immediately followed her.
After reaching the parking lot, Jiang Xueyao tossed a Mercedes car key to Xu Wendong; her ride was a Mercedes AMG S63, a typical gentleman rogue.
It combines the steady and grand appearance of a luxury car with the explosive performance of a sports car.
After helping Jiang Xueyao open the car door, Xu Wendong sat in the driver’s seat and fastened his seatbelt: "Miss Jiang, where are we going now?"
Jiang Xueyao looked at her phone and nonchalantly replied, "Bund No. 18!"
Xu Wendong entered the address of Bund No. 18 into the navigation system and started the car heading towards Bund No. 18.
In an hour’s drive, neither of them spoke.
The atmosphere in the car remained calm.
For Jiang Xueyao, having a strange man suddenly appear by her side was quite unsettling.
Moreover.
She was extremely averse to having men close by.
But for her own safety, she had to compromise.
Because a month ago, she had been kidnapped, and her family had to meet the demands of the kidnappers, or they might have killed her.
Due to that incident, she agreed to the arrangement of a personal bodyguard by her family.
After arriving at Bund No. 18.
Xu Wendong followed Jiang Xueyao into the mall; it’s one of the top large shopping malls in the Magic Capital, housing the world’s top luxury brands and cuisines from around the world.
In a French restaurant, Jiang Xueyao met her college classmate, a similarly aged urban lady in a black professional outfit.
Tall stature, delicate features, and dimples when she smiled, looking charming.
The two chatted enthusiastically, savoring the gourmet dishes, while Xu Wendong stood straight beside Jiang Xueyao, alert to his surroundings.
It’s fortunate that he’s a cultivator, with a willpower beyond the average, capable of not eating for extended periods, or else the sight of the delicacies would have made him drool.
Liu Yi revealed an intriguing smile, "Xueyao, don’t you feel a bit sorry for the handsome guy behind you?" She glanced at Xu Wendong.
Xu Wendong returned her a smile as a courtesy.
Jiang Xueyao didn’t even turn her head, handing the menu next to her to Xu Wendong, she said indifferently, "Order what you want to eat!"
Xu Wendong wasn’t shy and ordered a simple meal. Once it was served, he ate there beside them.
After finishing, he focused back on his job, staying alert to his surroundings.
In fact, he didn’t have to; even if he wasn’t in the restaurant, he could use his Soul Force to sense the movements around them.
Even if someone had malicious intentions towards Jiang Xueyao, they wouldn’t succeed.
But since it was his first day at work, he at least wanted to make an impression, leaving a good mark on Jiang Xueyao...
Perhaps because she’d met an old friend, Jiang Xueyao was in high spirits, drinking two bottles of red wine with Liu Yi.
When she stood up, her figure wobbled slightly, giving the impression that she might fall at any moment.
Due to the alcohol, a trace of a charming blush appeared on her face, resembling a ripe peach, tempting enough to bite into.
Liu Yi also drank quite a bit, cheeks slightly red, appearing alluring.
Due to the hot weather, she removed her black jacket, revealing a white T-shirt beneath.
The fullness of her chest was obvious, delivering a strong visual impact. Paired with a black work skirt, she looked both pure and enticing.
Xu Wendong secretly swallowed a gulp of saliva, realizing these two women, each more seductive and poised than the other!
