Chapter 389 - 389 389 A Fair Chance at Competition

389: Chapter 389: A Fair Chance at Competition 389: Chapter 389: A Fair Chance at Competition Luo Lin knew he had been impulsive, but there was only one opportunity, and if he didn’t seize it, he might never turn his life around.

Although he had a good relationship with Ding Yongwei, he was not the boss after all, and he often faced limitations.

Should he become Zhong Huashan’s bodyguard, he would be second only to one above all others, even Ding Yongwei would have to treat him with great respect.

Faced with such a huge temptation, Luo Lin naturally wanted to fight for it.

“Boss, I don’t think I’m worse than Xiang Yu.

What Xiang Yu can do, I can naturally do too.

Moreover, I am more experienced than him, so I believe I am more suitable for this position,” Luo Lin volunteered.

“Are you questioning me?” Zhong Huashan glanced coldly at Luo Lin.

He could tolerate Xiang Yu, but that did not mean he would allow his subordinates to act recklessly.

When Luo Lin heard the boss’s tone was off, he quickly knelt down with a thud and said scrupulously, “Boss, please don’t misunderstand, I am just considering your safety.

If an incompetent person with ill intentions becomes the head of the security, it could pose a security risk to you.”

Seeing that Luo Lin was sensible and his attitude was good, Zhong Huashan decided not to pursue the matter further, then he said, “Stand up and talk.”

Luo Lin’s back was covered in cold sweat, and he knew he had been just moments away from possibly being killed with a single word from his boss.

“I hope the boss can give us both a fair chance to compete.

If he truly has the capability, naturally he can hold the position.

If not, let me take over.

I am also responsible for the boss’s safety,” Luo Lin said.

Zhong Huashan thought this method was also acceptable, then looked at Xiang Yu and asked, “Would you be willing to compete with him?”

At that moment, Xiang Yu, supported by Tie Zhuzi and Xiao Xuan, stood there with a young man wrapping a bandage around his waist, who was none other than Liu Yuhang.

“Bear with it, boss,” Liu Yuhang said as he tugged the bandage tightly, eliciting a cracking sound from Xiang Yu’s bones that was startling to hear.

Xiang Yu stood there without even blinking.

Seeing Zhong Huashan asking him, he confidently looked up and said, “It’s all up to the boss.”

Zhong Huashan was pleased to see Xiang Yu increasingly fit into the role and clapped his hands with a laugh, “Good, since both young men want to fight for the position of head bodyguard, I will give you both a chance.”

Zhong Huashan, clearly interested, looked at them and said, “In the past, I had two old opponents, one nicknamed ‘Bage’ and the other named Tie Sanjiang.

Both are now thriving.

You each choose one, and within a week, I want to hear the news of their deaths.

Choose your opponents now.”

Luo Lin stepped forward promptly and said, “Since they are the boss’s old opponents, I will choose Bage.”

Perhaps others were not aware of the pair, but Luo Lin, having been in this circle for five years, was very familiar with them.

Bage and Tie Sanjiang were both figures to reckon with, but although Bage was indeed an old rival of the boss, his power was gradually declining, or perhaps being slowly eroded by other forces.

As for Tie Sanjiang, he was in full swing, his current power could be said to be no weaker than the current boss.

Killing Tie Sanjiang would be extremely difficult.

“Good, within a week, I want to see from whom the news of the opponent’s death comes first.

But remember one thing, you must not use anyone else’s power, it must be just you two who act.

If I find out that anyone has broken the rules of the competition, then he need not stay here any longer,” Zhong Huashan looked very seriously at the two men.

“Boss, rest assured, I will definitely complete the task within a week,” Luo Lin said with high spirits.

At that moment, Luo Lin was extremely excited because he envisioned himself as the boss’s bodyguard, standing alongside Ding Yongwei and Miao Honglei.

Having been in this realm for five years, Luo Lin naturally knew these forces like the back of his hand, and with Bage and his group gradually fading from the scene, killing him would be easy for Luo Lin.

It was different for Xiang Yu, however.

He had not been here long and did not understand these forces at all.

Not to mention killing Tie Sanjiang, even getting to see him would be a miracle.

Therefore, in this competition, Luo Lin had a great advantage.

He was confident in himself, and Ding Yongwei was even more confident in him.

Although he could not help Luo Lin in assassination, he could still provide some essential information.

Miao Honglei looked somewhat dejected.

Now that the boss had made a decision, he could not really say anything.

Otherwise, he would surely have encouraged Xiang Yu to choose Bage.

With that, Xiang Yu’s chance of becoming a bodyguard for Miao Honglei was simply out of the question.

Thinking this, he couldn’t help feeling angry.

“Xiang Yu, is there anything else you want to say?” Zhong Huashan suddenly asked Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu shook his head with a smile and said, “I have nothing else to say, the competition is good, I will do my best to complete it.”

Xiang Yu was not as pessimistic as they were.

Since both men were old rivals of Zhong Huashan and they had survived till now, it naturally indicated their capabilities.

Otherwise, with Zhong Huashan’s disposition, he would probably have gotten rid of them long ago.

Seeing Xiang Yu so open-minded, Zhong Huashan also smiled appreciatively and then stood up and said, “Let’s bring up this topic again in a week when the winner will naturally emerge.”

As everyone saw Zhong Huashan stand up, it seemed today’s visit was about to end.

They all prepared to stand up and follow the boss out.

“Today’s visit was mainly to find Zhong Qin and see who was taking care of him.

Now that we know this, there’s one more thing I need to tell you,” Zhong Huashan said with some seriousness.

Everyone was about to stand up and leave when they saw the boss had something more to say, so they quickly resumed their previous posture.

Xiang Yu knew that Zhong Huashan had other matters today; otherwise, he would not have made such a grand gesture and summoned the four big shots.

At that moment, Xiang Yu was paying attention to the expressions of these four big shots.

Ding Yongwei looked curious, Miao Honglei seemed disappointed, likely still contemplating the idea of Xiang Yu not being able to be the boss’s bodyguard.

As for Mo Lan, her face was indifferent, as if she wasn’t concerned about whatever the boss was about to say.

Shen San also appeared very calm.

He had sat there without saying much tonight, as if preoccupied.

However, this was quite typical of his past behavior during gatherings of the four big shots, so this demeanor was very much in line with his usual persona.

Xiang Yu was guessing which among these four was the hidden perpetrator behind the attacks on the boss, but from their expressions, it was impossible to tell, since all four were boss-level figures capable of hiding things very simply…
