Chapter 1004 - Natasha’s Unusual Behavior (1/2)

“Can you go by yourself… to the cocktail party tonight?”

When Jiang Chen heard Natasha’s words, he took a second to process before examining her from head-to-toe.

Natasha was starting to feel uncomfortable as she rebutted, “Why are you looking at me like that? Can you just give me an answer? Hurry.”

As a security consultant for Jiang Chen, she had to follow where he went, including this private reception.

“I used to think about it—the leader of a frontline intelligence team in her twenties, and a woman too.” Jiang Chen touched his chin and looked with intrigue. “Do you think this is normal?”

“You’re sexist,” Natasha protested.

“Well, let’s throw away the gender problem. You just graduated from university a couple of years ago, right? Don’t mind me, I’m just saying. Back home, if an official is in their twenties, there are two situations: either they’re the second generation of a politician

or—”

“Is this related to you?” Natasha said.

Normally, Natasha wouldn’t be so passive, at least not in her language; she might’ve even teased Jiang Chen instead. Now, she was obviously troubled by something on her mind.

“Of course it’s not related to me. If you say you’re already in your forties, I’m sure I will believe it… Wait, let’s keep it civil. No use of force!” Jiang Chen didn’t finish his words yet before a strong gust of wind was directed at him. He quickly put his arms up and grabbed Natasha’s foot in midair.

This chick was indeed fierce. Although they were in a limousine, it wasn’t spacious at all, and she could still kick her leg. However, while fierce, Jiang Chen could handle a few moves from Batman with his strength and reflex, let alone Natasha.

The movements in the limousine disturbed the bodyguard sitting in front. The bald man turned his head sideways slightly. Jiang Chen only saw his narrowed triangular eye and the hand reaching into his pocket. His murderous vibe was like a monster; he had only seen this in Carmen’s bodyguard before. Of course, it wasn’t directed at Jiang Chen but Natasha who sat across for him…

“Worry about your own business. Turn around; we’re just having fun,” Jiang Chen pushed away Natasha’s foot and waved at the bald guy.

This murderousness made Natasha turn pale, but it was useless to him. He fought the Mother of Death Claws head-on before. Not to brag, but a creature on this Earth without radiation exposure that could scare him hadn’t been born yet.

The bald-headed guy didn’t speak. After hearing Jiang Chen’s words, he nodded and took his hand out of his pocket then continued to look straight ahead. The driver sitting next to him was even more spectacular. Like a robot, the speed of the car didn’t change at all during the entire incident as if nothing happened.

“What’s with you today?” Looking at the pale Natasha, Jiang Chen was worried.

She didn’t use force. Although it seemed fierce, she reduced her strength in the end.

The pressure from behind slowly disappeared and Natasha breathed a sigh of relief. She sank into her seat, buried her face between her hands, and took a deep breath.

“Sorry… I am a little emotional today.”

“Apologizing isn’t necessary; I was trying to irritate you and I apologize too. If you aren’t feeling well, you can go back and wait for me.” Jiang Chen sighed and wasn’t in the mood to guess her issues so he comforted her.

Jiang Chen certainly wouldn’t have so much patience if it was someone else, but they had known each other for so long now.

On the way, neither of them said anything.

When Jiang Chen was bored, he focused on the person driving the car and the back of the bald guy sitting in the front. He felt that the two were indeed powerful and he wondered which system they belonged to.
