Night’s Nomenclature

Chapter 227: It’s All Routine

Be a bodyguard for Li Changqing?

Qing Chen quickly started going through the facts in his mind. During this critical period of power transition in the Li family, her arrival from City 1 must be to participate in the show that was about to be staged.

Every member of the Li family would be facing a certain degree of danger. If an E-level him became her bodyguard, wouldn’t it just be like running up to a gun?

Moreover, Qing Chen’s current plan was to wait for the Shadow candidates to fight each other and then take advantage.

He didn’t want to be involved in the power transition of the Li family at all.

Qing Chen thought about it and declined respectfully, “I need to think about it.”

Li Changqing said with a smile, “That’s fine. Many of my people can’t be trusted anymore, so I need a new team. I can give you the time you need, but don’t let me wait for too long.”

At this moment, a girl in a suit suddenly walked into the restaurant.

Li Changqing frowned, “What’s the matter?”

The female subordinate bowed to apologize, “Boss, there is something important, regarding Kashima and the Heng Group.”

As she said this, she glanced at Qing Chen, as if she didn’t want Qing Chen to sit in on the conversation.

But Li Changqing waved her hand and said, “There’s no need to be so cautious about him. Just talk about it directly.”

“Yes. We caught a Kashima man, who was hiding in City 18,” the subordinate said, “As you expected, Kashima and Kamidai were involved in some of the previous incidents.”

“Well,” Li Changqing’s face turned cold. “Yue Er, you are responsible for the surprise interrogation. Pry his mouth open for me within 24 hours. I want to know which family members the Kashimas are supporting. If the northern bug dares to interfere in the affairs of my Li family, I’ll make sure that there’s no chance of them going back.”

“I understand,” Yue Er nodded.

At this time, Li Changqing asked, “What happened at the Heng Group?”

Yue Er said, “Tonight, thirteen groups gathered at the Never-ending Club to discuss getting rid of the Heng Group. They believed that since Mr. Li Shutong had died, the Heng Group had lost its biggest backer, so they planned to split it up and share the profits.”

“What a time to create unnecessary trouble,” Li Changqing asked coldly, “What groups are there?”

“Hesheng Group, Qing Group, Cheng Group…” ¹

Li Changqing thought for a moment and said, “Let our people keep an eye on them. This is a good opportunity to clean up the rats in the sewer as well.”

Qing Chen quietly listened, not expecting that the information was quite related to himself.

He suddenly felt that the eldest princess of Li’s second generation seemed to have great power. If he followed her, could he obtain a lot of information anytime and anywhere?

And it was all very crucial information.

The girl named Yue Er left. Li Changqing looked at Qing Chen with a smile and said, “Although it might be dangerous to be my bodyguard, I will make sure that you are treated well.”

When Li Changqing smiled, the small mole at the corner of her mouth looked particularly delicate and attractive.

…

…

On the hovercraft, Qing Chen loosened his tie and said expressionlessly, “What did you write on my resume?”

“Just… good at close combat, good at counter-reconnaissance, and good at protecting important personnel,” ONE said.

“I don’t believe you!” Qing Chen shook his head and said, “If I am just an average E-level genetic warrior, why would someone as important as Li Changqing want to hire me as her bodyguard?”

At this time, ONE said: “You should know that no matter what you want to do next, it will be a good choice to follow Li Changqing. You only need to be a bodyguard for a while to get additional information. Isn’t this better than slowly obtaining intelligence by yourself?”

Qing Chen was in deep thought.

The next moment, ONE said nonchalantly: “I told her in your resume that the genetic injection you used happened to be the Li family’s FDE genetic medicine sequence, and she promised to supply the subsequent genetic medication to you if you work for her.”

“FDE genetic injection?” Qing Chen was stunned.

“Does it sound familiar?” ONE said, “It happens to be the genetic injection sequence that Liu Dezhu injected. Now that kid is loyal to you, but he has only gotten 005. Although it is difficult to continue awakening, think about it. If you inject all the gene drugs into him, wouldn’t it be good to have an extra loyal B-level subordinate?”

Qing Chen frowned, “He has already awakened, can he still take genetic medicine?”

“Of course he can, but it’s hard for most people to get genetic injections,” ONE said, “However, Li Changqing is different. Half of the genetic injections in the entire Li family belong to her. Even a little bit of it leaked from her hands to you is a huge benefit that others only dream of.”

ONE added: “In the past, I would definitely not recommend you continue injecting Liu Dezhu, but he is so loyal to you now. Having such a subordinate can definitely help you defeat other Shadow candidates. Think about it, the protectors around other candidates are only C-level, but you can upgrade Liu Dezhu to B-level in just a few months.”

Qing Chen said expressionlessly, “Your analysis does make sense… Was my master involved in any of this?”

ONE: “I can’t tell you.”

Qing Chen was once again silent.

On the other side, Li Changqing, who had just stepped onto her hovercraft, suddenly received another message: “I agree to be your bodyguard…”

Li Changqing sat in the car and glanced at the message, then tossed her phone onto the seat beside her.
