Chapter 547: Five hundred and forty-two, how bad can it be_1

"What are you looking at?"

Gu Chen asked him curiously.

He made no attempt to conceal his actions and honestly replied, "I’m observing the outlook from outside."

Well, even though he explained, Gu Chen still didn’t understand what he meant.

Perhaps he was considering whether there might be any threats from outside the window.

"Boss Gu, I suggest that in the future, it’s best to have thick black curtains drawn in the house,"

Hawkeye tentatively suggested to Gu Chen.

After hearing this, Gu Chen thought about it; if that were the case, the house would indeed never see the light of day again.

But considering safety, he decided to follow Hawkeye’s suggestion and change the curtains.

"Have you all eaten?" Gu Chen asked the six of them.

The six shook their heads, and Broken Brow said, "Our meal times are very fixed, and it’s not yet time for us to eat."

Gu Chen had not expected that their professional training even specified fixed times for meals.

"Just in time, I’m about to make breakfast. I’ll prepare your portions as well,"

Gu Chen said as he went into the kitchen to start bustling about.

Only six more pairs of chopsticks to add, which was no trouble at all for Gu Chen.

Back in the days when Qiwei Vegetarian was bustling, Gu Chen handled it with no pressure whatsoever.

It wasn’t six guests he was facing then, but sixty.

By the time Gu Chen started to clean up after dinner, it was almost five o’clock.

Ji Pianran came out of her room to find six people sitting rigidly on the sofa, startling her.

Seeing Ji Pianran come out, Gu Chen took the initiative to say, "These six are the ones who will protect you and your mother from now on."

Gu Chen explained to Ji Pianran.

After hearing this, Ji Pianran was still somewhat bewildered.

Although Gu Chen had said the night before that a team would come, it was still a lot for her to adjust to all at once.

"Hello," Ji Pianran greeted them with a smile.

The six of them stood up in unison, looking at Ji Pianran.

Then they each introduced themselves to Ji Pianran.

Seeing their military-like discipline, Ji Pianran knew what kind of people Gu Chen had found.

She felt somewhat reassured in her heart.

Before this, she had been worried that Gu Chen would find some rough characters from the streets.

About twenty minutes later, Xiao Tangtang also walked out of her room.

When she emerged, she looked just like Ji Pianran; they were like two peas in a pod, mother and daughter.

"Oh my! Why are there so many people?" Tangtang was startled to see the six people on the sofa.

Ji Pianran explained to Tangtang the job of the six uncles.

After hearing this, Tangtang’s initial confusion turned to delight in an instant.

"Uncles! Are you the bodyguards they talk about on TV? That’s so cool!"

She bounced towards the six men as she spoke.

Seeing Tangtang’s adorable demeanor, all six of them, including Broken Brow, couldn’t help but smile.

Broken Brow said to Tangtang, "Yes, from now on, we uncles will protect your safety."

"Then can Uncle help me with my homework?" Tangtang asked expectantly.

After this question was posed, Broken Brow’s smile froze instantly.

Homework? He couldn’t remember the last time he had even touched a pen.

"Asking him to help with homework would indeed be asking too much, but Uncle Iron Bull can teach you—he didn’t even finish elementary school, so he can’t even do basic arithmetic problems."

Iron Bull really liked Xiao Tangtang and said to her with a smile.

After he finished speaking, Broken Brow and the others immediately glared at him.

But then again, among the team, Iron Bull had the highest education.

He looked burly and illiterate.

Yet, Iron Bull was a genuine university graduate, fluent in seven languages.

"It’s okay, it’s okay, Xiao Tangtang didn’t finish primary school either. Xiao Tangtang can teach uncles how to do homework," Xiao Tangtang said to Broken Brow and the others, sounding like a teacher.

Caught off guard by her words, Broken Brow and the others were momentarily speechless.

They could fight their way through the battlefield, but when it came to academics, just three questions could stump them completely.

At this time, Boss Gu had finished all the cooking and brought everything to the table.

His culinary skills hadn’t declined from before, filling the air with delicious aromas after he was done.

Broken Brow and the others had intended to just have a simple bite and be done with it.

It wasn’t their mealtime, but Boss Gu had gone through a lot of trouble to cook, so it wouldn’t be polite not to eat.

So, everyone sat together and began to eat.

Iron Bull was very supportive: "Boss Gu, this dish is really delicious," he said.

Before Boss Gu could reply, Xiao Tangtang spoke up for him.

"Daddy makes the best food in the whole wide world," Xiao Tangtang said earnestly.

They didn’t take her too seriously.

Because it’s normal for a daughter to praise her father’s cooking.

Iron Bull was the first to pick up a piece of beef with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth.

Usually a voracious eater, his movements slowed the instant the meat hit his tongue.

He chewed on the beef in his mouth blankly, looking rather foolish.

Broken Brow had seen Iron Bull’s reaction and didn’t understand what was going on.

They knew Iron Bull very well; he wasn’t fussy about food and would eat whatever was available.

And he wasn’t one to care about appearances when eating.

But now, eating so slowly, it looked very out of character.

They all began to wonder.

Could it be hard to swallow?

Judging by Iron Bull’s expression, that seemed to be the only description.

Although they didn’t know what was up with Iron Bull, they were at a loss for what to do.

"This, this, this, this dish..." Iron Bull appeared unable to hold back any longer, pointing at the dish.

Before he could finish his sentence, Broken Brow interjected: "Iron Bull, why are you so picky? You’ve always been the fussiest in the team. Be thankful for what you’ve got to eat. Does it really matter if it’s good or not?"

Worried that Iron Bull’s rash words might hurt Boss Gu’s feelings, he quickly tried to stop him from continuing.

Hearing his words, Iron Bull got anxious and wanted to argue back, but his mouth was too busy savoring the food to stop.

Poison Hand, jumping in, said, "Exactly, we should be grateful for what’s to eat. Thank you, Boss Gu."

He then picked up his chopsticks and avoided the beef Iron Bull had eaten, fearing it was indigestible.

He casually picked up a piece of celery.

Vegetables, no matter how bad, can’t taste too terrible since they have their own natural flavor.

As he was thinking this, he put the celery into his mouth.

At this moment, Broken Brow and the other three watched Poison Hand intently, curious about his reaction.

But after eating, Poison Hand wore the exact same expression as Iron Bull.
