Chapter 5

Seven o’clock in the evening, south of the city!

  Someone parked a Bentley on the side of the road.

  Here, there were no skyscrapers, there was just one small, low building!

  Here, there is no wide and bright road, there is just a narrow alley!

  There are no perfect public facilities here; there is only simple living equipment, in the depths of the city’s shantytowns.

  Looking at the dirty, dilapidated shantytown streets in front of him, Xue Li somewhat does not understand.

  He didn’t understand why his young master had to come to this kind of place to look for someone.

  However, Xue Li was a bodyguard and not a talkative person, so if Lu Yu did not say why, he was too lazy to ask.

  According to the address he investigated earlier, Xue Li walked forward and soon brought Lu Yu to the bottom of a dilapidated small building.

  The low floors, dirty, and narrow hallways gave a very depressing feeling.

  There were small adverts for locksmiths and sewer openers everywhere.

  Lu Yu did not care and followed Xue Li up the stairs.

  Fourth floor!

  Xue Li knocked on the door of the room on the left and then stepped aside as Lu Yu straightened his clothes.

  ‘Who is it!’

  A gentle female voice rang out, followed by the sound of a woman’s footsteps coming from the room door.

  The woman did not open the door but looked out through the cat’s eye.

  ‘Hello, I’m looking for Wei Jianjun.’ Lu Yu was polite.

  Hearing this, the woman was wary. ‘Jianjun, looking for you.’

  ‘Oh, coming!’

  The rough man’s voice rang out, and then it was a small run.

  Clicking, the door opened.

  A man with dark skin and a powerful body appeared in Lu Yu’s line of sight.

  Lu Yu was 180 tall, and this man was half a head taller than Lu Yu.

  Short hair, country face.

  He was wearing a green stretch vest and blue and white camouflage trousers!

  All kinds of pecs, abs, and biceps were bulging.

  Just standing there gave people feel being full of power.

  As for his looks.

  A face with a clear outline and a dark colour.

  Not quite good-looking, but not ugly either.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

  Very much in line with the image of a post-apocalyptic supporting character.

  ‘You are?’

  Wei Jianjun had a puzzled look on his face when he saw the handsome and well-dressed Lu Yu.

  Because he had never seen the other party before.

  ‘My name is Lu Yu!’

  ‘We know each other?’

  ‘I didn’t know each other before, but I got to know each other quickly.’

  ‘You’re looking for me for something?’

  ‘It’s like this!’ Lu Yu smiled and casually lied. A friend of mine told me you are good with your hands. I am short of a bodyguard here. I don’t know if you are interested?’

  ‘Bodyguard?’ Wei Jianjun raised his eyebrows, ‘How much a month? Is there a trial period?’

  ‘Of course, there’s a probation period, but even if you don’t pass the probation period, there’s a hundred thousand dollars of work compensation on my side.’

  ‘One hundred and ten thousand? Work compensation?’

  Wei Jianjun’s eyes widened in disbelief.

  His current job was as an ordinary security team leader in a building, with a monthly salary of 4000 yuan.

  4000 yuan in today’s society can do what?

  Nothing can be done.

  Nothing. Especially for a family that has to raise a child. It’s not enough.

  And this guy, he fails his probation and gives 100,000 in compensation?

  The equivalent of two years’ salary?

  Are you kidding me?

  He didn’t believe his ears, but seeing Lu Yu’s serious expression, he didn’t look like he was joking!

  Lu Yu smiled slightly and waved towards Xue Li.

  Xue Li understood and handed out the handbag he had prepared in advance!

  ‘Not bad! If you’re not sure about my promise, I can give you the 100,000 compensation first.’

  ‘Ah, this.’

  Wei Jianjun was dumbfounded, and Li Cuiying, who was playing with her daughter in the room, was also dumbfounded when she heard this.

  In a family like theirs, the money they earned was just enough for them to maintain their basic monthly expenses.

  There were no savings at all.

  Now, with this much cash in front of them, how could they remain unsurprised?

  However, Wei Jianjun was at least a soldier who had seen a big scene!

  He knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch.

  The surprise only lasted a short while before he regained his senses.

  ‘How did you know about me?’

  Lu Yu smiled, ‘Why don’t. We go in and talk about it?’

  ‘Oh, right, right, right, come in and sit, come in and sit! Look at my brain.’

  Hearing Lu Yu’s words, Wei Jianjun fiercely slapped the back of his head and hurriedly invited Lu Yu and Xue Li in.

  He was not afraid that Lu Yu was a bad guy.

  After all, the other party was so rich, and he was so capable of fighting!

  It had to be said that the end of the world had not yet come.

  The power of money was still very great.

  Take Wei Jianjun, for example. Real life’s harshness crushed Wei Jianjun’s original pride.

  Once he heard that Lu Yu had come to work for him, he was simply grateful to Lu Yu.

  As for being a bodyguard for Lu Yu, might be dangerous.

  Sorry, that was what he ate.

  If Lu Yu didn’t do anything, he wouldn’t feel comfortable.

  So Lu Yu used less than an hour to turn him from Chu Feng’s right-hand man to his own personal bodyguard.

  As for Wei Jianjun’s character, how? Lu Yu was not too worried about that.

  A person who could become the protagonist’s right-hand man in the post-apocalyptic world, his character could not be any worse.

  ‘Lu Yu, is this kid very capable?’

  After leaving Wei Jianjun’s residence and Lu Yu and his two men got into the car, Xue Li, who was also a bodyguard, could not help but ask.

  Not to mention what kind of salary package Lu Yu had given the other party.

  They gave this 100,000 compensation very unreasonably.

  To recruit someone in this way was also not in line with Lu Yu’s past style.

  ‘You’ll know this later, Xue Li. You’ll do something for me first!’

  ‘Young Lu, please speak!’

  ‘In the vicinity of where we store our supplies, buy Wei Jianjun a set of high-grade residence, the closer the location is to where the supplies are stored, the better, the property deed will be written in his name, it doesn’t matter if it’s a lot of money we must let the family of three live in it within three days.’

  ‘Ah? Young Lu, aren’t you being a little too nice to him?’

  Hearing Lu Yu’s request, Xue Li was a bit surprised and said, ‘He’s only just joined the company, and you’re giving away houses and money again.’

  He felt that it was a bit unfair!

  He hadn’t even enjoyed this kind of treatment in all the years he had worked in the Lu family.

  ‘Too good for him?’

  Looking through the car window at the brightly lit city streets, the corners of Lu Yu’s mouth lifted into a playful smile. ‘If you want a house, I can send you a set too!’

  Houses, cars, these were all passing clouds.

  After the end of the world, even life was brittle, like a piece of paper. Who would care about these extraneous things?

  ‘Hehe, let’s forget about it!’

  Xue Li smiled awkwardly. ‘I don’t lack a place to live now either!’

  ‘Then you’re talking to me about this? Alright, drive, I still have to rush back to school.’
