Chapter 318 A Glimpse That Surprises Xiao Bing (2/2)

Xiao Bing turned off the lights in the room and then stretched out, starting to sleep on the sofa. Naturally, he wouldn’t do anything to this girl, but he had to make her afraid. With so many missions these years, he knew that a single mistake in the processing of any details might lead to the failure of a task. Failure could lead to death. So Xiao Bing was very careful about this. Even if it was useless in the end, he had to be prepared.

It was quiet at night. At first, the girl was still a little nervous and couldn’t fall asleep. But after a long time, when she heard Xiao Bing’s even breathing, she slowly fell asleep.

Xiao Bing was not a gentleman, but he had principles and determination. A person without determination could not be the Sect Master of Dragon Gate and the leader of Dragon Teeth. If he lacked self-control, then he would have had his team members killed.

After Xiao Bing took over Dragon Teeth, task completion rate was at its highest, and there were very few casualties.

The next morning, when the girl woke up, she found Xiao Bing sitting up on the sofa and looking at her with a smile. The girl hurriedly sat up and checked her clothes. After making sure that her clothes were intact, she got out of bed looking nervous.

Xiao Bing pulled a stack of money from his wallet and handed it to her. He said, “Here you are. This is your reward for last night.”

“Last night… actually… I didn’t do anything.”

As soon as she stopped speaking, she saw Xiao Bing’s face becoming frosty. She hurriedly changed said, “Sorry, I understand…”

She took the money, which was several times more than her normal charge. Xiao Bing always treated beautiful women nicely and he was not a harsh man. After the girl took the money, Xiao Bing calmly said, “Since you’ve got your pay, you can go back now.”

“I understand.”

The girl put the money in her purse, shot a glance at Xiao Bing and left.

Xiao Bing’s reason for having the girl overnight was because of Aoki Ichiro, who was a wandering dissolute samurai. It would be suspicious if he hadn’t touched a woman after coming to Jingdong. Xiao Bing believed that if he was successfully chosen as Princess Nami’s warrior, she would surely ask people to investigate him. So at this time, every detail was important.

Xiao Bing left the hotel and had breakfast outside. He wore loose clothes, wooden clogs on his feet and the knife on his waist. After breakfast, Xiao Bing wandered around before he came to Princess Nami’s private estate in the evening.

Jingdong City in Country R was a very densely populated city. Even high-ranking officials were not all allowed to own estates. There were only a few estates in the city, and one of them belonged to Kawatani Nami. Not only because she was the granddaughter of Iza Kawatani, the chief of the elder group but also because the emperor liked her very much and treated her as if she was his real granddaughter.

There were some people waiting to sign up outside the manor at this time. Two tables were at the door, each with one person sitting behind to register. Since it was late, there were few people waiting in line at this time. They were all Samurais applying to become Princess Nami’s personal warrior.

In modern society, jobs for samurai were decreasing, and their status and role were constantly declining. Not only because the world was in a peaceful era, but also because science and technology had greatly developed. Even though they had been all the rage during the cold weapon era, there was no place for the samurai to use their abilities. As a samurai, being able to protect a princess personally was actually a glory.

Moreover, Princess Nami was recognized as the number one beauty of Country R. To be a personal warrior of the number one beauty was probably a dream for most men.

Because of this, there would be many outstanding warriors competing this time. Xiao Bing indeed had many competitors.

When Xiao Bing stood at the end of the line, he clearly saw the unkind looks of the people in front. Xiao Bing didn’t care since these people weren’t taken into account. If he could reveal his identity, they likely wouldn’t be his match even if they all stood against him as one.

After waiting in line for more than half an hour, Xiao Bing finally saw the registrar, who was in his thirties. He glanced at Xiao Bing and asked, “Name, age, home address, what honors have you got, and how many years have you studied martial arts?”

Xiao Bing said, “Aoki Ichiro, 27 years old. I am a homeless warrior, so I have no fixed residence. I have neither participated in a professional competition nor received any honor but I have learned martial arts since childhood.”

“Right.” After filling the form, the man asked Xiao Bing to submit a copy of his ID card and a two-inch photo. After getting Xiao Bing’s mobile phone number, the man told Xiao Bing that he could go.

There were still two days before the competition, but it was the last day of the registration. Xiao Bing had caught up with the deadline. On his way back, Xiao Bing looked back at the manor. He wanted to sneak in and take a look at the princess of Country R. But he gave up this idea because the competition was about to start. The number one beauty was sure to show up then and he would see her.

However, at this moment, a car happened to pass by Xiao Bing. He happened to glance inside and saw a beautiful woman sitting at the back. The car was going too fast as it entered the manor. But just that fleeting look at her face was enough to amaze Xiao Bing and make his heart throb.
