Chapter 2518 — Zhong Yongliang Sets Up a Challenge Ring
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
A bodyguard not only needed good martial skill; more importantly, he had to take blows for his employer at the critical moment!
Zhong Yongliang had spent an entire night coming up with this idea. He was no longer the fool he once was. Shen Yushu would not give him a clear answer, and he could not simply sit there waiting like an idiot—what if Shen Yushu was stringing him along, extending the probation period indefinitely? He could not afford to wait!
By then Wei Zhao might well have carried Gu Mengyao off to bed, and he would still be nowhere! So he had to go on the offensive.
At first, plenty of people were greedy for the thousand yuan Zhong Yongliang offered. In their view, since Zhong Yongliang would not fight back, a few flying kicks once they got up there would surely bring him down—it wouldn't even take ten minutes! So they all signed up eagerly.
But reality did not match their imaginings. Zhong Yongliang was like a cockroach that could not be killed; the fists that landed on him seemed to do him not the slightest harm. You could not quite say it was like punching stone, but after hitting him for a while, their fists ached and their feet hurt, while Zhong Yongliang still stood tall, looking down on the crowd from the ring like a conqueror!
One student even kicked Zhong Yongliang in the crotch in a rather despicable move—and the result was still a tragedy. Zhong Yongliang was completely fine, as if nothing had happened, while the student's own foot hurt terribly from the force of the kick!
In short, not a single person could knock Zhong Yongliang down within ten minutes—they could not even make him show a grimace of pain!
So, after these people reluctantly handed over their thousand yuan, fewer and fewer challengers stepped up. Though the terms looked very much in their favor, everyone had come to understand one truth: no diamond, no porcelain work. If Zhong Yongliang dared make such a boast, he surely had preparation and confidence behind him!
Gu Mengyao saw the news on the campus BBS forum at the first opportunity and immediately frowned, annoyed by Zhong Yongliang's attention-seeking behavior. But during their high school years, had Zhong Yongliang ever been short on attention-seeking stunts?
"Xiaoshu, why is Zhong Yongliang so insufferable? Didn't you tell him to wait for news? Why did he go and set up a challenge ring on his own?" Gu Mengyao turned to look at Shen Yushu.
"Sigh, Little Liangzi seems to have gotten smarter. He knows I might be playing him, dragging things out indefinitely—so this is his way of forcing my hand..." Shen Yushu saw through it clearly and instantly grasped Zhong Yongliang's thinking.
"Then what do we do?" Gu Mengyao asked.
"There's nothing I can do either—we can only wait for Brother Arrowhead to step in!" Shen Yushu shook her head helplessly.
"Aren't you All-Purpose Shu? Why are you useless now? No longer all-purpose? Besides, will it be solved just because Wei Zhao shows up? Isn't Zhong Yongliang invincible below the Heaven Rank? Can Wei Zhao handle that Golden Cicada Underwear of his?" Gu Mengyao asked.
