Chapter 19: Chapter 0019: The Second Most Precious Gift
Chu Feng looked at An Rongrong with a mischievous grin, "What could possibly be wrong with me? I’m in great health and everything tastes delicious."
An Rongrong rolled her eyes at Chu Feng and said, "You’re so annoying. Grandpa Zhang is no ordinary person. I heard from grandpa that Grandpa Zhang seems to be some kind of Yellow Level Expert. I don’t quite understand, but I know Grandpa Zhang is very impressive. I once saw him split a pine tree as thick as a thigh with a single palm."
Hearing An Rongrong’s words, Chu Feng was secretly shocked. So Uncle Zhang really was a Yellow Level Expert, and the thought of the power those experts possessed made Chu Feng yearn even more.
"So you’re scared now," An Rongrong said with a sidelong glance at Chu Feng.
Chu Feng said, "Nope, I was just wondering if it’s my thigh or your thigh that’s thicker."
"You! You’re so annoying! I’m not talking to you anymore!" An Rongrong stomped her foot angrily and then quickly walked ahead.
Seeing this, Chu Feng hurried after her.
"Why are you following me?" An Rongrong turned around, her anger apparent as she spoke.
Chu Feng smiled and said, "You’ve forgotten, I am your personal bodyguard now, so of course, I must stay close and protect you."
After saying this, Chu Feng felt that it was a bit awkward—it sounded like he was comparing himself to a sanitary napkin. But then he thought, if he could be An Rongrong’s sanitary napkin, that might not be too bad.
An Rongrong, who didn’t have as many thoughts as Chu Feng, tried to stomp on him in anger but he easily dodged.
The two of them continued fooling around until they reached An Rongrong’s room.
"I’m going to change into a formal dress now, and you are not allowed to follow me," An Rongrong turned and warned Chu Feng.
Chu Feng, with his thick-skinned nature, said, "It’s okay, you change your dress and I’ll just watch from here, I won’t make a sound and disturb you."
An Rongrong’s face blushed furiously and she pushed Chu Feng out forcefully, then slammed the door shut, saying, "Just wait outside for me."
Unable to stay close and protect her, Chu Feng, bored, stood outside and began reading the ancient manuscript he had brought with him.
The manuscript indeed was quite old as its illustrations were somewhat faded, but they were still legible.
The movement technique contained nine steps, but each step had nine variations, totalling eighty-one variations. Whether for combat or escape, it was extremely useful.
"What are you looking at so intently?" Just as Chu Feng was deeply exploring the manuscript, An Rongrong’s voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Chu Feng looked up toward An Rongrong and couldn’t help but be dazzled.
She was in a black strapless evening gown, lacking the impressive bust of Cui Jingyan, yet still quite decent and no stockings on her feet, but rather bare legs in open-toed high heels.
Her ten crystal-clear toes were exposed to the air, like ten delicate petals, even emitting a faint fragrance.
The delicate little face with just a light touch of makeup made her already flawlessly exquisite face even more perfect.
An Rongrong, seeing Chu Feng staring intently at her, felt her cheeks grow hot.
"What are you looking at?" An Rongrong asked shyly.
Chu Feng replied without thinking, "Looking at a beautiful woman."
"Get lost!" An Rongrong spat softly, but inside she felt sweet.
"Let me show you around my house for a bit. Once the birthday banquet starts, we can go back. If we go now, we’ll just end up being annoyed by all those uncles," An Rongrong suggested.
Chu Feng said, "Great! Wherever you say, let’s go there. Even if you say let’s elope right now, I’ll carve a bloody path and elope with you."
"Who wants to elope with you." An Rongrong blushed deeply.
Chu Feng took An Rongrong’s hand actively and said, "This way it’s safer, just in case your house is too big and I get lost."
Holding An Rongrong’s soft, boneless hand, Chu Feng felt his heart race, and An Rongrong felt as if she had been struck by electricity, her whole body tingling.
However, Chu Feng didn’t know that all his actions were observed by Old Master An.
Uncle Zhang stood behind Old Master An, watching Chu Feng boldly taking An Rongrong’s hand, and said, "Elder, is it really okay to entrust the young lady to such a person for protection?"
Old Master An watched the audacious Chu Feng on the screen and said, "Entrusting her to him makes me feel more at ease than entrusting her to someone else. Although this young man is bold, he’s genuine, and his heart is not bad."
He paused, then added, "Also, I have a feeling his future is limitless."
Old Master An had weathered countless storms to establish the An Family as it was today, and he had a lot of confidence in his judgment of people.
Watching Chu Feng lead his beloved granddaughter away from his mansion, Old Master An said, "You tested him just now, what do you think of him?"
Uncle Zhang replied, "The youngster must have also cultivated some kind of Inner Family Technique. His energy is long and enduring, and though he hasn’t reached the Yellow Level yet, the strength in his arms is already about five hundred pounds. Whether he can reach the Yellow Level will depend on whether the cultivation technique he practices is sophisticated enough."
Old Master An asked, "If you were to take him as your disciple, how long would it take for him to become a Yellow Level Expert?"
Uncle Zhang responded, "You know I don’t take disciples, my lord."
Old Master An laughed heartily and said, "I was just speaking off the cuff. Let’s go get ready too. I estimate many guests have already arrived."
Chu Feng and An Rongrong walked around the An Family’s estate before returning to the An Family mansion.
By then, the An Family mansion was already very lively, and cars constantly entered the grounds, each one a luxury car worth at least a million each.
Upon entering the banquet hall, An Rongrong immediately attracted everyone’s attention.
The young princess of the An Family was very famous in the elite social circles.
Not only was she attractive, but more importantly, she was the apple of Old Master An’s eye; anyone who could marry her would gain the recognition of the An Family and was bound to rise to great heights.
All eyes were on An Rongrong, whereas Chu Feng went unnoticed as they considered him just a bodyguard. freёnovelkiss.com
Of course, there was someone who did notice Chu Feng, and that was Wu Di.
Wu Di was dressed even more glamorously today, clearly the star in everyone’s eyes, surrounded by numerous young women.
Given that the Wu Family was no less influential than the An Family in East River, climbing up the social ladder by aligning with Wu Di seemed like an ascension to heaven.
Wu Di looked at Chu Feng maliciously, and Chu Feng unapologetically stared back.
"Big brother, why is this loser here?" Liu Tianming whispered in Wu Di’s ear.
Wu Di replied with a cold voice, "How should I know?"
Liu Tianming looked at Chu Feng, an idea popping into his head as his eyes twinkled, and said, "Since he’s here, we might as well take the opportunity to humiliate him properly."
Wu Di asked, "What’s your plan?"
With a mischievous grin, Liu Tianming whispered into Wu Di’s ear, then said, "What do you think, boss? Is it doable?"
A gleam appeared in Wu Di’s eyes as he said, "Let’s do that."
Throughout, An Rongrong carried a sweet smile, greeting all the uncles and elder relatives with poise and etiquette.
Observing from behind, Chu Feng found it exhausting and finally understood Rongrong’s ordeal.
The pair barely made it to Old Master An’s side where they finally caught their breath.
The birthday banquet officially started at nine in the evening, and after Old Master An expressed his gratitude, it was time for everyone to present their birthday gifts.
The gift-giving ceremony was essentially a display of family prestige and also a pleasing gesture. Although Old Master An did not particularly enjoy it, he couldn’t escape the custom.
"Grandpa, here are two bronze artifacts from the Warring States period I found for you." The first to present his gift was An Rongrong’s older brother, also the designated third-generation heir of the An Family who usually stayed away from home, gaining experience within the An Family corporation.
Old Master An looked at the birthday gifts presented by his grandson and nodded with satisfaction.
Then, other members of the An Family also stepped forward to offer their gifts, but what pleased Old Master An the most was An Rongrong’s gift.
Right there, An Rongrong cooked a bowl of longevity noodles for her grandfather, making Old Master An smile from ear to ear.
"This is the second most precious gift I’ve received tonight," Old Master An excitedly declared.
"Didn’t expect you to look quite nice below, huh?" An Rongrong returned to Chu Feng’s side, and Chu Feng smirked mischievously.
"Of course, you need to see who I am," replied An Rongrong, completely missing Chu Feng’s underlying tone and speaking proudly.
Chu Feng looked at An Rongrong’s expression and laughed even more wickedly.
However, in Wu Di’s view, this was a provocation towards himself.
