460 Being Targeted Deliberately!
Shen Ruojing didn’t look at Jing Zhen.
Perhaps it was because he had played too many supporting roles over the years and had become accustomed to faking his emotions, even if you looked into his eyes, you couldn’t tell whether he was being genuine or fake.
She just waited quietly for his answer.
Jing Zhen was silent for a moment and sighed. “Little Jing, there are too many people here. Let’s talk outside.”
Shen Ruojing looked around and indeed, it was not a good place to ask questions. She nodded in agreement.
Jing Zhen continued, “Can Chu Cichen handle this? Since you know about the Doom Organization, you know they will come looking for me. Only with the protection of Valor Gate’s experts can I feel at ease about your mother.”
It turned out that it was to protect Shen Qianhui.
Shen Ruojing nodded. “I understand.”
Valor Gate did not participate in the struggles of international organizations, nor did it easily participate in the struggles of the Four Great Families. Last time, when Shen Cong had come to cause trouble for the Chu family, he had only looked for Chu Cimo and the other juniors. If the eldest martial brother found out, he would not spare these troublemakers.
Hence, Shen Ruojing didn’t say much about the matter back then. If Chu Cimo took action, it shouldn’t be a problem to find a few skilled people.
Sure enough, as she thought of this, she heard Chu Cimo’s Fifth Senior Brother say, “Protecting a celebrity? That’s not a problem! How many people do you need?”
Chu Cimo then looked at Jing Zhen. “Uncle, how many people do you need?”
Jing Zhen thought for a moment. “Two… three… four people!”
Chu Cimo looked at his Fifth Senior Brother. “Four people, is that okay?”
“Sure!”
Old Master Bai. “??”
He was confused and pulled Chu Cimo over to ask, “You’re giving the big…”
The word ‘shot’ was suddenly changed. “…celebrity a bodyguard, but it can’t be an outer disciple. It has to be an inner disciple. This is no joke!”
Chu Cimo then looked at his Fifth Senior Brother.
The Fifth Senior Brother nodded. “Okay!”
Chu Cimo then looked at Old Master Bai again.
Old Master Bai. “…”
He looked at his son-in-law and suddenly felt like he didn’t know him at all.
Could it be that stupid people have good luck?
(Does this useless Chu Cimo have a unique charm in interpersonal communication?)
Chu Cimo’s Fifth Senior Brother smiled and said, “I’ll go arrange it for you right away, wait for me!”
As he turned to leave, he heard his Fourth Senior Brother’s sarcastic voice. “Hey, Fifth Junior Brother, what are you going to arrange?” Chu Cimo turned his head and saw the first and Fourth Senior Brothers walking toward them.
When he saw the Eldest Senior Brother, Chu Cimo’s pupils shrank!
As a junior brother, he had been praised for having the demeanor of their esteemed junior martial uncle. But the Eldest Senior Brother had always suppressed him, even forcing him to leave the sect in the end.
After so many years, he finally saw his Eldest Senior Brother again.
Chu Cimo’s Fifth Senior Brother stopped his steps and respectfully bowed. “Eldest Senior Brother!”
The Fourth Senior Brother then questioned him, “Fifth Junior Brother, what are you doing? Are you going against the rules of our ancestors and being okay to act as a bodyguard for someone else? You must have eaten a bear’s heart and a leopard’s gall! Eldest Senior Brother, we caught him in the act. This matter must be dealt with seriously!”
The Fifth Senior Brother became nervous. “Fourth Senior Brother, what are you accusing me of? Didn’t you also follow Shen Cong and act as his bodyguard before?”
The Fourth Senior Brother sneered. “Do you have any evidence? Without evidence, you can’t slander people here. What bodyguard? I was just making friends with Shen Cong!”
The Fifth Senior Brother was choked up.
Nowadays, there were more and more inner disciples.
Everyone wanted to earn some extra money, so they were willing to take on some short-term work. As long as it didn’t involve a struggle between noble families, the elders would turn a blind eye.
The Fourth Senior Brother had acted like Shen Cong’s dog before, helping the Shen family make things difficult for the Chu family. He definitely accepted Shen Cong’s money.
But the Fifth Senior Brother had no evidence, and now he was caught in the act by the Eldest Senior Brother.
Chu Cimo’s Fifth Senior Brother’s face turned ashen with anger. “Fourth Senior Brother, don’t go too far!”
“How am I going too far?” The Fourth Senior Brother raised his chin and said with a smile, “Eldest Senior Brother saw everything. Eldest Senior Brother, what do you say?”
Chu Cimo’s Fifth Senior Brother also looked at the Eldest Senior Brother.
The Eldest Senior Brother looked about thirty years old, and he was the son of the second senior uncle. He was also the most powerful disciple of their generation.
As he couldn’t stand the Fifth Senior Brother who was involved with Chu Cimo, he narrowed his eyes and said with his hands behind his back, “Fifth Junior Brother violated the rules of the sect. You will be punished by kneeling in the Reflection Hall for five days and nights and copying the sect rules one hundred times!”
The Fifth Senior Brother was immediately angry. “Eldest Senior Brother, you’re biased! Who among the disciples doesn’t know that Fourth Senior Brother has received many benefits from Shen Cong?! Why do you only punish me and not him?”
The Eldest Senior Brother made a fair appearance and said, “If you can provide evidence that Fourth Brother violated the rules, I will punish him in the same way! But do you have any?”
Of course not!
No one was a fool. Even when they earned money, they would only take cash!
Chu Cimo’s Fifth Senior Brother was angry. “His daily expenses are displayed clearly, so how can he live so extravagantly on the meager allowance given by the sect? Isn’t this enough evidence?”
The Fourth Senior Brother chuckled. “Can’t my family give me money?”
“You’re from an ordinary family! Where did you get so much money from?”
“What’s wrong with being from an ordinary family? My great-great-grandfather left us some gold bars. Is that not okay?”
This was just shameless.
The Eldest Senior Brother continued to ask Chu Cimo’s Fifth Senior Brother, “Do you have any evidence?”
The Fifth Senior Brother. “…”
Chu Cimo couldn’t bear it anymore and stepped forward to stop his Eldest Senior Brother. “Elder Brother, just target me if you want to. Why make things difficult for Fifth Senior Brother? I will kneel for five days for him.”
The Fourth Senior Brother immediately sneered. “Wow, is this a display of brotherly love?”
The Eldest Senior Brother then shot the Fourth Senior Brother a glance, frightening him into silence.
After that, the Eldest Senior Brother turned to Chu Cimo and asked, “As a non-sect disciple, what qualifications do you have to kneel in the Reflection Hall?”
Chu Cimo’s sore spot was struck and his expression immediately changed!
Hence, he tightened his jaw and clenched his fists.
However, his Fifth Senior Brother pulled his arm and whispered, “Just endure it for now. I’ll kneel, and when you win first place in the boxing competition and rejoin Valor Gate, we’ll show the Eldest Senior Brother who’s the boss.”
Chu Cimo took a deep breath and patted his Fifth Senior Brother’s shoulder. “You’ve suffered.”
“Don’t worry about it. We’ve both kneeled for ten days before.”
The Fifth Senior Brother chuckled. “I just don’t manage to help you out with your request.”
Chu Cimo’s eyes turned slightly red, but he didn’t say anything.
No matter what, he had to win first place in this fighting competition!
After half a month of training here, his fighting skills had reached a high level!
Just as he was thinking of this, he suddenly heard the Eldest Senior Brother say, “But you paid Old Fifth to make a mistake, and this is something that violates our rules, so…”
The Eldest Senior Brother looked serious, but his eyes revealed a cunning light. “Your qualification for the fighting competition has been revoked!”
