Chapter 151 Hoping You Will Be Reasonable
Chapter 151 Hoping You Will Be Reasonable
```
Compared to the life and death of these two bodyguards, his dignity was the most important thing. But now, his dignity had been slapped away by Liu Wentian!!
He had previously said that his bodyguards were heavy-handed and feared they might cause trouble for Liu Wentian. But what now??
His two bodyguards had been crippled, and through it all, Liu Wentian hadn't moved an inch!!
Li Qin's gaze towards Liu Wentian also became somewhat peculiar.
Experience tales with empire
"Liu Wentian, I didn't expect this of you. You are truly formidable. You're just like the legendary martial master of Liu," she said in astonishment. "It's incredible!!"
Li Qin took a deep breath as if seeing Liu Wentian in a new light, yet she still sighed, "But even so, you're still not suitable for Yaoyao. Our Bai Family isn't known for martial arts. You are remarkable, but what we need is a son-in-law who knows business, one who can support Feige Entertainment and my Qinyao Apparel!!"
"I hope you can understand," Li Qin said, locking eyes with Liu Wentian.
"Mom!! Why are you being so unreasonable today!!" Bai Ruguo said angrily.
"Yaoyao, you're still young. Mother sees things more clearly than you, Liu Wentian is not from our world," Li Qin said, still focusing on Liu Wentian.
Liu Wentian's eyes narrowed, and he was getting somewhat angry as well.
Normally, he seemed laid-back, indifferent to many things, but that didn't mean he had a good temper!!
He wouldn't look down on anyone, but neither did anyone have the right to despise him!!
Li Qin was trying to do what she thought best for Bai Ruguo. But by stressing repeatedly that Liu Wentian couldn't support their Bai Family's business, in the end, it was clear she looked down on him for being just a martial man, just a humble doctor!!
"Haha!! Are you sure you want to fire me, your bodyguard?? Do you really think your Bai Family's Feige Entertainment and this apparel company are so impressive?? Honestly, I see them as nothing more than crap!!" Liu Wentian chuckled coldly as if he had heard a huge joke.
"Liu Wentian, you are too arrogant!!"
Li Qin hadn't expected Liu Wentian to speak like this and was so furious that her eyebrows stood on end as she exclaimed.
"No matter how skilled you are as a bodyguard or as a doctor serving others, by what right do you act so presumptuously?? Do you really think that just because you cured Yaoyao's face and saved her life, our Bai Family can't do without you??"
Li Qin was a typical iron lady, authoritative and determined. In the company, she never tolerated dissent. No one had ever dared to talk back to her like this, and Liu Wentian's remark that her Bai Family's Feige Entertainment and the apparel company were utterly worthless was about to make her explode in anger.
"Mom, don't be angry, Liu Wentian didn't mean it that way. Liu Wentian, please stop doing this, it's not like my mother had any bad intentions," Bai Ruguo, startled by the situation, quickly intervened.
Seeing the situation, Will broke into a smile and laughed, "Miss Bai, I think your bodyguard is rather arrogant!! A mere bodyguard dares to call his employer's business crap. How can such a bodyguard be loyal?? How can he be trusted??"
"Shut up!!" Bai Ruguo bit down on her teeth, glaring at Will. It was all because of this guy that things had escalated between her mother and Liu Wentian!!
"Liu Wentian is not our servant. Why does he owe us loyalty?? I said he is my boyfriend, didn't you hear??" Bai Ruguo continued angrily.
"Enough!! Yaoyao, stop it!!"
Looking at Liu Wentian, Li Qin finally said in a stern voice, "Liu Wentian, as of now, you are fired, you're no longer Yaoyao's bodyguard. As for the one hundred million in bodyguard fees, we will still pay you. Actually, let's make it five hundred million, just don't show up in front of Yaoyao ever again. You might have some skills, but to avoid excessive arrogance, our Bai Family's temple is too small to accommodate you!!"
```
Liu Wentian's forehead vein throbbed, and in the end, he only uttered one word, "Fine."
"No!! Mom, you can't fire Liu Wentian, you absolutely can't!!" Bai Ruguo was so anxious she was nearly in tears.
"Why can't I? I—"
Li Qin's words were cut off by an irritated voice that suddenly came from the doorway.
"Wife, have you lost your mind?!"
Bai Zhongzhou hurried in, speechlessly looking at his own wife.
Li Qin had returned to Shenming City in the morning, and he had only just realized that as soon as his wife got back, she intended to introduce their daughter to a boyfriend.
Li Qin had mentioned Will to him before.
Objectively, Will's conditions were very good, and his family's Sri Lanka Group was financially stronger than the Bai Family.
However, Bai Zhongzhou had long realized that his daughter's heart was clearly stirred by Liu Wentian.
Now he had also changed his opinion of Liu Wentian, thinking he wasn't bad, especially since Liu Wentian had left Wu Hai crippled the last time, yet walked out of Jing Ju completely unharmed.
That had scared him as well, to understand that even he, if he had left Wu Hai disabled, wouldn't have emerged unscathed.
And when he understood from Bai Ruguo that Liu Wentian was able to walk out of Jing Ju unharmed because of his involvement with Blood Night, he was genuinely startled.
Blood Night, even for a business magnate like him, was a legendary existence!
Today, he had received news that Liu Wentian acquired 10% of the shares of Tiange Group.
Even though Tiange Group wasn't what it used to be, 10% of the shares were still worth over a billion!
It could be said that Liu Wentian brought him countless shocks, to the point where he now even felt a bit of reverence towards Liu Wentian!
So, as soon as he understood Li Qin was bringing Will to meet Bai Ruguo, and Liu Wentian was also at the scene, he rushed over immediately, only to encounter the worst scenario.
His own wife had actually dismissed Liu Wentian, oh my god!!
Now, with the world's third-ranked assassin organization "Shadow" out to kill his own daughter, where would he find another bodyguard as formidable as Liu Wentian if Liu Wentian left?
After so many years of marriage to Li Qin, this was the first time Bai Zhongzhou felt an urge to scold her fiercely!
"Husband, why are you here? How have I become muddled?" Seeing Bai Zhongzhou hurry over, Li Qin frowned in confusion.
"You—sigh!"
Bai Zhongzhou sighed and finally pulled Li Qin aside to tell her all about Liu Wentian's situation in detail.
Li Qin's expression gradually froze, then turned to shock, disbelief, and finally, she was completely dumbfounded.
The world's third-ranked assassin organization wants to kill my own daughter??
And already, two assassins have been killed by Liu Wentian??
Liu Wentian actually disabled the heir of the Xinghui Group, and then nothing happened??
He even suddenly acquired 10% of the Tiange Group's shares, becoming a billionaire??
All of this, for Li Qin, was simply too unbelievable!!
I actually just offered Liu Wentian 50 million, with a tone of charity, asking him never to appear in front of Yaoyao again, this...
On the other side, Will watched Liu Wentian with a triumphant gaze.
He'd already forgotten about the two disabled bodyguards. Compared to two bodyguards, driving away Liu Wentian, his rival in love, was the most important.
Now, Liu Wentian couldn't be Bai Ruguo's bodyguard, and he had also fallen out with Bai Ruguo's mother, how could he possibly compete with me??
Bai Ruguo was undoubtedly already in my pocket!!
"Liu Wentian, can you please not take my mom's words to heart?? You'll still be my bodyguard, right??" Bai Ruguo, holding onto Liu Wentian's arm, pleaded pitifully.
Liu Wentian furrowed his brows. He had indeed planned to protect Bai Ruguo, after all, during this time, he had come to see Bai Ruguo as a friend and naturally did not want her to be killed.
But Li Qin's words had thoroughly enraged him.
At this moment, Li Qin approached with an embarrassed look on her face and apologized to Liu Wentian, saying, "Liu Wentian, I... I take back what I said earlier, can you continue to be Yaoyao's bodyguard?? I won't stop you two from seeing each other either."
She'd now gained an understanding of Liu Wentian and was thoroughly frightened.
Being able to kill professional assassins from the world's third-ranked assassin organization and having some connection with Blood Night, inexplicably owning 10% of the Tiange Group's shares, no wonder he didn't care about the Bai Family's fortune!!
Just with Blood Night alone, they were a force the Bai Family couldn't afford to offend!!
"Ah??"
Will let out a shocked cry, staring dumbly at Li Qin. What was happening, what in the world was this situation??
"Ms. Li, what kind of joke are you making?? Didn't you say you were going to dismiss him?? You can actually tolerate such an arrogant guy??"
Li Qin frowned, her expression displeased. This Will really knew how to touch on the sore spot. He had no tact at all.
"Master Will, that is none of your business. Also, after thinking it over, I believe you and Yaoyao are not suited for each other. Better just give up," said Li Qin, indifferently.
Will's mouth hung open in shock, utterly unable to comprehend how things had turned out this way.
Li Qin looked again at Liu Wentian with remorse, saying, "Liu Wentian, can you just pretend that I misspoke and forgive me??"
However, Liu Wentian shook his head, "I'm sorry, but not everything can be resolved with an apology. I'm no longer at your service!!"
He sighed and looked at Bai Ruguo, saying, "Miss, from now on, you should just be more careful. Bring more bodyguards when you go out. I hope they can protect you well."
Having said that, he turned to leave.
"Liu Wentian, don't go!!"
Bai Ruguo panicked completely, chasing after him and hugging Liu Wentian tightly.
"Miss, let go. I can be quite stubborn sometimes, and since your mother looked down on me so much earlier, it's unnecessary for me to continue being a bodyguard," said Liu Wentian, furrowing his brow.
Bai Ruguo burst into tears suddenly.
"Mhm, mhm... Liu Wentian, please don't leave... mhm, mhm..."
"I mean... I was the one who got despised and looked down on just now. What are you crying for, Miss?? It's incomprehensible. One might think, one might think I had treated you unfairly. You're a big star; it won't look good if people see this!!"
Liu Wentian, seeing Bai Ruguo crying so pitifully, felt a twinge of heartache and used his hand to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes.
Bai Ruguo, however, cried like a little girl. The more Liu Wentian wiped her tears, the harder she cried.
"Mhm, mhm... Liu Wentian, do you really not care about me anymore?? What if those assassins really come to kill me?? Mhm, mhm..."
"This..."
Liu Wentian sighed. He indeed didn't want anything bad to happen to Bai Ruguo, but Li Qin's behavior today, and the underlying contempt in her polite words, had indeed infuriated him.
At this moment Li Qin also came out, and without a word, she bent her knees, ready to kneel.
Bai Zhongzhou, beside her, had a conflicted look on his face, but ultimately did not stop her.
Actually, no matter how powerful Liu Wentian was, even if he had connections with Blood Night or had acquired 10% of Tiange Group's shares, it wasn't enough to make Li Qin kneel down.
What they cared about was that Bai Ruguo needed Liu Wentian's protection. They didn't believe they could find another bodyguard capable of confronting a professional assassin from the "Shadow" assassin organization.
Bai Ruguo was their precious treasure. Although Li Qin initially looked down on Liu Wentian, she was indeed earnestly considering Bai Ruguo's well-being, hoping she could forever remain a carefree princess.
For Bai Ruguo, Li Qin was willing to kneel!! Even if it meant risking her life, she was willing!!
"What are you doing??"
Liu Wentian frowned, stepped forward, and helped Li Qin up, not allowing her to kneel.
Li Qin gave a wry smile and said, "Liu Wentian, I was blind to your worth earlier. All I ask is for you to keep protecting Yaoyao, to not let her get hurt. This kneeling is my way of apologizing to you."
"Mom, please get up. Liu Wentian, can you forgive my mother, please??" Bai Ruguo pleaded tearfully, sobbing like a storm.
"Let it go, let's consider this matter settled."
