On this day.
In the morning.
With the drama finished, Zhang Ye’s time was freed up. He slept well and only woke up around 9 AM. After he got up, he realized Old Wu and Sisi were both not around. He was the only one at home. In the living room, Old Wu had prepared breakfast for him and left it on the dining table. But it was already cold. There was also a note beside it.
“I will send the child to school today. Heat up the food before eating. Oh yes, go to the garage and have a look after you’ve eaten. I have a surprise for you.”
—Wu Zeqing.
Zhang Ye was taken aback. He immediately headed outside to the garage. After opening the garage door, this fellow was dumbfounded by what he saw. A brand new BMW was parked inside of it. He did not know which X series this was because he had become so out of touch with the world. He was no longer aware of what the latest BMW models were. But when he tapped on the car window, Zhang Ye obviously knew that it was a bulletproof car. It should be the latest generation of the BMW X5 bulletproof car he owned a few years ago!
Daaamn!
What the hell?
Zhang Ye called his wife immediately.
“Hello, Old Wu.”
“You’re up already?”
“Whose car is that?”
“Hur hur, it’s yours. Do you like it?”
“I love it! But where did you get the money?”
“Have you forgotten about the game you created for Fat Sis?”
“Plants vs. Zombies?”
“The third game in the series has come out, and we get royalties from the sales of the game every year. But since you haven’t been around, my sister deposited it straight into my account. I topped it up with some of my own money and bought you a new car.”
“Aiya, why didn’t you discuss it with me earlier?!”
“I was afraid that you would feel bad about spending such money on a new car.”
“Hai, my wife still treats me the best.”
“Alright, I have to go to a meeting. Go give the car a test drive.”
“Alright, I’ll go pick you up after work tonight!”
Muah! Muah! Zhang Ye blew some kisses to his wife over the phone. After hanging up, he got into the car excitedly and drove off without eating breakfast.
This power!
This speed!
It was so fun!
Zhang Ye loved it so much that he drove straight to the studio.
Along the way, he suddenly glanced at the rearview mirror and saw a car that seemed like it had been following him since he came out of the neighborhood. It kept its distance from him throughout the journey and did not look like a paparazzi’s car.
He reached the studio’s neighborhood.
The moment Zhang Ye parked his car, he saw the other car park a distance away. He got out and strode towards it.
The person in the other car did not try to hide. However, he did look a little embarrassed.
Zhang Ye stood beside the car. Then he tapped on the window.
The window rolled down to reveal only one person in it.
Zhou Xiaohe gave a sheepish smile and said, “Boss.”
Zhang Ye gave him the side-eye. “Why are you following me?”
Zhou Xiaohe said, “Since I’m your assigned guard, I have to ensure your safety.”
Zhang Ye said impatiently, “I’ve said before that there’s no need. Hurry up and leave!”
“That was before.” Zhou Xiaohe insisted, “Your safety was guaranteed when you were based at the research institute. After your release, there wasn’t a need to worry about your safety either since some news has yet to be announced. But it’s different now. General Li and Fellow He wanted me to inform you that it’s almost time. Many of the people who were involved in the research projects are going to get a performance review over the upcoming days. At that time, there will be no way to keep the matter a secret anymore. Every country will get wind of the news, and your safety will be compromised.”
Zhang Ye rolled his eyes and said, “I will be responsible for my own safety. As a celebrity, why would I have an armed guard following me around wherever I go? How would that look?”
Zhou Xiaohe said, “But what if something happens to you? That will be a great loss to the country.”
Zhang Ye said, “I have my own bodyguard. Go back and tell Old Li to stop bothering me!”
When he heard the word “bodyguard,” Zhou Xiaohe revealed a mocking look as he muttered, “The bodyguard that you’re referring to are just amateurs. 10 of them can’t get past me.”
Zhang Ye was amused. “It’s best you don’t brag about this.”
Zhou Xiaohe smiled and said, “You’re talking this way because you haven’t come across an expert yet. Usually, the bodyguards that most celebrities’ have are not very reliable. They’re at most retired military personnel, that’s all. I can easily take on five of them without breaking a sweat. If you don’t believe me, ask your bodyguard to come over some day to spar with me. You’re always looking down on those of us who came out of the Central Security Bureau. We’re actually very professional.”
As they were speaking.
A woman’s delighted voice rang out from an open window above them.
“Senior Bro!”
Zhou Xiaohe looked up.
Zhang Ye looked up as well.
It was Yang Shu.
She has grown older.
And become more beautiful as well.
Zhang Ye said happily, “Hey, speak of the devil!”
Yang Shu shouted, “Senior Bro, wait for me!”
She slammed the window closed.
Zhou Xiaohe was dumbfounded. “That is?”
Zhang Ye said, “Uh, my bodyguard.”
“Your bodyguard?” Zhou Xiaohe said in a speechless manner, “A woman?”
Very quickly, Yang Shu raced downstairs at her fastest speed.
“Little Yang.”
“Senior Bro!”
“When did you come back?”
“I just got back this morning!”
When she ran up to him, Yang Shu excitedly hugged Zhang Ye like a child.
Zhou Xiaohe looked at them strangely.
Zhang Ye coughed. “Alright, alright, just a short hug will do.”
Yang Shu’s eyes were brimming with tears. “Senior Bro, you’re finally back! When I knew that you were released, I wanted to return to Beijing immediately. But Master Rao did not allow me. She insisted that I calm down and continue with my cultivation. You don’t know this, but I went to the prison that you were held in custody at quite a few times over the years. But…” She murmured, “But I couldn’t get any opportunities.”
Zhang Ye exclaimed, “Ah? What were you thinking?”
Yang Shu said, “I wanted to break you out of prison!”
Zhou Xiaohe was speechless.
Zhang Ye did not know whether to laugh or cry. However, he knew what his junior sister’s character was like. She was naïve, stubborn, and not very smart, while her EQ was relatively low too. Other than practicing martial arts, the only other thing she cared about was her senior bro. So when Zhang Ye heard that, he felt quite touched. It wasn’t so bad having a junior sister like this.
Zhang Ye chuckled and asked, “You haven’t forgotten your kung fu after all these years, have you?”
Yang Shu stiffened. “Of course not.”
Zhang Ye asked, “What level have you attained with your practice thus far?”
Yang Shu replied excitedly, “Master Rao said that I have mastered the use ofdivine skill 1 .”
Zhang Ye narrowed his eyes. “Not bad.”
Kung fu?
Level?
Mastered the use of divine skill?
Listening to their conversation, Zhou Xiaohe couldn’t help but sneer unceasingly. Brag, carry on bragging!
Yang Shu had rolled up her sleeves by now and starting boasted, “Senior Bro, let me show you!”
Zhang Ye smiled and said, “Alright.” Then he turned around and looked at Zhou Xiaohe. “Little Zhou, watch carefully. This is my bodyguard. Don’t judge her by her appearance. Her skills are…”
As he was speaking, he caught sight of Yang Shu standing in front of his BMW in his peripheral vision. He got a bad premonition.
Yang Shu had already raised her fist!
Zhang Ye roared, “Fuck!”
Before he could stop her, Yang Shu threw a punch!
Crack!
The BMW’s side window shattered!
Zhou Xiaohe was also startled. “Why is she so strong?”
Smashing a glass window?
With a bare hand?
Zhou Xiaohe had also practiced martial arts before, so he naturally knew how much force this required. Although using tools, one could easily break an ordinary car’s tempered glass windows, a certain technique was still needed to do it successfully, not to mention smashing it with one’s bare hands. That required the force to be exerted at one point in order to break through the protection of a piece of tempered glass. Zhou Xiaohe was also capable of doing this. But seeing a woman use a punch to create such large cracks on the car window, it still gave him quite a shock. He couldn’t tell that Teacher Zhang’s bodyguard was actually quite skilled.
Over there, Zhang Ye rushed up to her. “Yang Shu! Fucking get over here!”
Zhang Ye was infuriated!
When Yang Shu saw him like this, she immediately turned tail and ran away.
“Senior Bro, you were the one who asked me to demonstrate it to you!”
“But I did not ask you to fucking smash my car’s window!”
“Didn’t you smash it as well?!”
“What I smashed was someone else’s fucking window! This is my new car!”
The moment he caught up to her, Zhang Ye raised his leg and landed a kick on Yang Shu’s butt!
Yang Shu shrieked in pain and continued running!
“Senior Bro, why are you hitting me!”
“Get over here!”
“I won’t!”
“Don’t you fucking run!”
“You can’t stop me from running!”
“Just because you’ve mastered using concealed power, you’re getting all arrogant!?”
“I’m not!”
One was running away while the other kept chasing.
Everyone in the neighborhood was alarmed by this!
Zhang Ye’s staff from the studio hurriedly came down to stop the fight!
This was a truly strange scene to behold. Everyone had known Zhang Ye and Yang Shu for a long time, so they knew that Yang Shu must have gotten on the nerves of Zhang Ye.
“Little Zhang, what are you doing!”
“Auntie Sun, don’t worry about this. It’s none of your business!”
“Aiyo, Little Yang can be a little stubborn sometimes, but do you have to go this far?”
“Why are you fighting with a girl?”
A crowd of people was holding Zhang Ye back. Everyone was siding with Yang Shu on this.
Over here.
Zhou Xiaohe shook his head and gave a wry smile. He did not join in the commotion. Instead, he walked up to the BMW and examined the cracks on the car window.
That punch was quite strong.
But it was still not strong enough.
Zhou Xiaohe believed that if it were his punch, it would definitely be a much harder punch than hers. He tapped the car window and was about to turn and walk away. But he was stunned. He turned around in shock and tapped on it again. With a deep breath, he landed a heavy hit on it once more!
The window did not budge!
Zhou Xiaohe tried a strong punch on the unbroken window!
Even though his fist had turned red from the punch, there were no changes to the window!
Zhou Xiaohe nearly spat out a mouthful of blood!
Fuck your sister!
This isn’t tempered glass!
Th-This is fucking bulletproof glass!
How is that possible!?
Who is that woman?!
Zhou Xiaohe could not believe it. He looked at the car and took out his cell phone to check the Web for which model it was. As it turned out, it was indeed BMW’s latest bulletproof car!
Checking the model!
Looking at the bulletproof glass type!
Reading the test specifications of the bulletproof glass window!
Zhou Xiaohe cried. He knew that even if he shot at it with a gun, it would be impossible to recreate the effects of that woman’s punch. He turned around to look at Yang Shu, who was being chased by Zhang Ye and threatened to get beaten up by him. His knees wobbled, and he nearly kneeled to her. He knew that he had encountered an expert today!
He raised his cell phone and called his former squad leader who taught him close quarters combat.
The call connected.
“Squad leader.”
“What’s up, Little Zhou?”
“You mentioned that there is a kind of power in internal styles known as concealed power?”
“Yes.”
“What sort of force does concealed power have?”
“I’ve never seen it before. But I’ve heard that if one manages to master concealed power to a certain level, one could leave a fist imprint on a five-mm thick steel plate with just one’s bare hands. However, there are less than ten martial artists in all of China who have achieved this. You can’t find them easily.”
“B-But I saw one today.”
