Beauty and the Bodyguard

If even their guards were like this, then there was no need to even mention the head of the Wang clan, who had yet to reveal himself. The ordinary great clans were probably not even worth their attention.

With such an unlucky fellow as a precedent, the others naturally did not dare to follow in his footsteps.

The Smoking Man, on the other hand, looked at Lin Yi with interest, as if waiting for Lin Yi's reaction, hoping that Lin Yi would give him some more trouble.

Speaking of which, if Lin Yi really wanted to fight back, he was the only one here who could suppress it. A team of complete heaven-sunders wasn't enough.

To their surprise, Lin Yi was quite cooperative-he gave Wang shiqing some instructions and followed the group through the gate, a completely different person from his previous display of power.

This was the best solution Lin Yi could come up with after weighing the pros and cons.

If the other party's position was biased, and it was clear that they were targeting him, then there was nothing much to say. He would naturally resist to the end. At most, he would not come for the job. No matter how powerful the Wang clan was, they couldn't possibly chase him down and kill him over such a small matter.

However, judging from the Smoking Man's behavior, he was not just targeting him. Besides, he did not sense any additional malice from him, so there was no need to cause more trouble.

Plus, with Lin Yi's insight, it wasn't hard to see that there was a deeper meaning behind the man's actions.

"Interesting."

The Smoking Man gave Lin Yi a meaningful look before blowing out a ring of smoke and following behind the group.

Seeing Lin Yi and the group being taken into the yard, the rest of the applicants smiled in relief. Even without Lin Yi, these people were the strongest competitors.

If this group of people were here, the rest of them were basically destined to run away with them. It would be difficult for them to even get a chance to meet the young lady of the Wang family, let alone successfully apply for the bodyguard position.

But now, this group of strongest competitors had been collectively eliminated. Their chance had come!

Everyone's heart began to race. That was the young lady of the Wang family! If they were to win her heart, it would mean a leap in their social class. They would be one of the top young talents in Jianghai city and their future would be bright!

However, before everyone could celebrate, the Smoking Man who was about to enter the door suddenly stopped, turned his head, and said,""I forgot to tell you, the rest of you can leave now. The bodyguard preliminary test is over. You're all out."

For a moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

After being stunned for a while, seeing that the door was about to close again, someone finally couldn't help but stand up and ask,""Commander Yan, when did the bodyguard preliminary test take place? you should at least give us a reasonable explanation, right? If it was already decided, then there's no need for such a pretentious recruitment. No matter how powerful the Wang family is, they can't play people like monkeys!"

As soon as these words came out, the rest of the people echoed one after another, as if they were going to make a big deal out of the matter.

With the power of the talisman patrician family, the Wang family, they naturally wouldn't care about what these people thought. However, if this matter were to spread, it would have a negative impact on the Wang family's reputation. This concerned the image of the family, so they had no choice but to take it seriously.

The Smoking Man known as commander Yan looked at the man and replied nonchalantly,""Wasn't that just the preliminary test? You guys can't even see such a big commotion? If your vision is bad, go home and have a look. Perhaps you can be cured while you're still young. "

Everyone was stunned and immediately reacted,""That was the preliminary test? It's just a group of people fighting each other, what kind of first test is that?"

"Hehe, you're quite persistent."

The Smoking Man pouted, his face full of impatience, but out of duty, he still explained reluctantly,""Actually, there was a special preliminary test, but I thought it was too troublesome. I just happened to run into this mess, so I just treated it as a preliminary test. Is there a problem?"

The crowd was even more dissatisfied,"of course there's a problem!" There were no rules at all, and there was no notice at all. How could it be considered a preliminary test? Could it be that the Wang family's criteria for a bodyguard is to see who's better at causing trouble?"

The Smoking Man laughed."Of course, being a bodyguard isn't about who's the better at causing trouble, but who's the better at calming things down. And before calming things down, you have to stand up first. Each and every one of you, have you stood up after such a long time?"

Everyone choked.

"If you want to stop the fight, you have to have the strength," someone objected."If you don't have the strength to suppress both sides at the same time, wouldn't it be a joke to stop the fight?"

The Smoking Man glanced at him with a faint smile.""Just the fact that you think you're not strong enough is enough to eliminate you. Besides, you don't have to rely on your strength to stop the fight, you can also rely on your brains, right? If you don't have the strength or the brain, what else is there to say?"

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the man stammered for a long time but could not come up with a proper sentence, so he could only leave resentfully.

"Adapting to the situation is the most important ability of a bodyguard, and just now was the best last minute test. Either show me your strength, or show me your brains. There's nothing in your head. Wait for me to treat you guys to a meal? Are you even worthy?"

The Smoking Man lit another cigarette as he spoke. Not only was this guy a heavy smoker, but he was also extremely fierce when he talked to people.

Although the crowd was still unconvinced, they could only hold it in. They were not as strong as the other party, and the power of interpretation was in the other party's hands. What else could they do at this point?

Wang shiqing felt very happy as she watched the losers leave. They were all gloating over her big brother Lin Yi's misfortune, and they deserved it.

In comparison, the formation maidservant that she had signed up for was much more well-behaved. All kinds of tests were done in a rigid manner, and it looked very much like an apprentice examination.

Of course, to Wang shiqing, this level of difficulty was like the level of an elementary school student, so it was easy and pleasant.

As for Lin Yi, she wasn't worried at all.

It wasn't just because he had absolute confidence in Lin Yi, but also because he could tell that the Smoking Man wasn't targeting Lin Yi. In fact, he was friendly to a certain extent.

If he hadn't intervened, Lin Yi would've been at a huge disadvantage if the fight had continued.

Wang shiqing had always been good at reading people, and she had never made a mistake. After all, with her Black-bellied little devil personality, she would've hit a wall 800 years ago if she didn't know how to read the mood. She might've been eaten by Lin Yi before she even had the chance to meet him.

He followed the group into the inner yard, and to his surprise, the yard wasn't as big as he'd expected. It wasn't small, but it wasn't enough for the Wang family's display of power.
