The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 980: Chapter 980: The New Bodyguard

This Hummer’s door lock was designed by Germany, with a precision not inferior to the safes at Jinzhou Bank. Without a key, picking the lock isn’t easy, and forcing it open is impossible.

However, Lin Tian is no stranger to safes; it’s just a car lock, how hard could it be?

”It’s quite simple.”

As he spoke, Lin Tian somehow pulled out two extremely thin silver needles, with a unique style and intricate, odd etchings on them. One needle had barbs and the other was twisted like a serpent’s spear.

Lin Tian waved the two silver needles in front of Nanqiu with a smile and said, ”Watch closely.”

After speaking, Lin Tian walked over to the car door, pushed his hand against it, pried off a small shell on the handle, revealing the keyhole inside.

Modern cars mostly use remote unlocking, this Hummer included. Yet beneath each car’s handle hides a keyhole, in case the remote is lost and one needs to use a key.

Lin Tian inserted the barbed silver needle, turning it three deep and five shallow, then added the twisted needle. With a twist back and forth, the car door opened.

Nanqiu covered her mouth in shock. Having been beside the Jin Guard for years, lock picking was a basic skill for her, but seeing Lin Tian easily cracking a lock so precise still surprised her.

”How did you do it?” Nanqiu asked.

Lin Tian tapped his forehead with a smile, ”It’s thanks to my clever mind.”

”Pah!” Nanqiu uttered lightly, knowing this boastful guy never spoke a truthful word.

Lin Tian shut the car door, pocketed the silver needles, then pushed open the villa’s iron gate and said, ”Come on in.”

Nanqiu glanced at this guy in front, reluctantly following him inside.

As soon as she entered the yard, Nanqiu saw a middle-aged man, likely weighing two hundred and thirty pounds, standing in the snowy yard, wearing a thin autumn jacket. Like a dog on all fours, he suddenly leapt forward, stretching his limbs in quite a practiced manner.

This scene looked both comical and startling. Fortunately, Nanqiu hadn’t watched Celestial Dragon Continent cartoons; otherwise, she’d think it was Kung Fu Panda.

”What is that person doing?” Nanqiu asked.

Lin Tian replied, ”Didn’t you want to learn Celestial Dragon Continent martial arts? Well, this is called Five Animals Qigong, it’s for health strengthening.”

”What’s Five Animals Qigong?”

”It’s mimicking the postures of five kinds of animals.”

”Oh? I know you Celestial Dragon Continent people have Monkey Fist and Crane Fist, that person must be practicing Dog Fist?”

Lin Tian’s facial muscles twitched, wanting to retort, but upon seeing Liou Zhengming’s not-quite-tiger expression, he suddenly didn’t know what to say.

”There’s no Dog Fist in Celestial Dragon Continent. This is Tiger Exercise!” Lin Tian said.

”Mimicking a tiger?”

Lin Tian nodded.

Nanqiu glanced again and said, ”I still think it looks like Dog Fist.”

”...”

Lin Tian directly ignored Nanqiu’s words, walked up to Liou Zhengming and said, ”Dad, your Five Animals Qigong is getting better!” Lin Tian said with a smile.

Liou Zhengming withdrew his fists, slowly caught his breath and, after finishing the exercise, replied with a smile, ”Not bad, though it’s odd. I used to dislike exercising, now I must practice a few forms a day to feel comfortable. My appetite has improved, haha.”

”Haha, that’s best. This method of losing weight and lowering blood pressure is much better than others, I think acupuncture is unnecessary, it’d be redundant,” Lin Tian said.

Liou Zhengming was evidently in high spirits, nodding with a smile, ”Alright, do what you think is best. By the way, the young lady behind you, aren’t you going to introduce her to your dad?”

Actually, Liou Zhengming had already noticed the young lady behind Lin Tian.

The first impression was that her features were delicate, and her short blond hair imbued her with a manly vigor.

The second impression was her temperament. Her pace was steady, moving like a dragon and prowling like a tiger, especially those slender eyes full of vigilance.

Liou Zhengming, after enduring the business world for so many years, was quite adept at recognizing people. This young lady was definitely extraordinary.

Actually, Liou Zhengming was currently harboring a fire in his heart.

He knew Lin Tian had many beauties around him, understandable as the more outstanding a man, the more outstanding women around him. But Lin Tian...this was too much, wasn’t it?

Last time he brought Bai Shishi and Mei Ruyan home for the New Year, that was already exceptional. Now, he’s brought another one back on his own.

This brat, does he think the Liou Family is easy to push around?

Lin Tian sensed the heat from Liou Zhengming’s words, quickly giving a smiling face and said, ”Dad, her name is Nanqiu, she’s from Xiaocheng. Her Celestial Dragon Continent language isn’t good. I recently took her as an apprentice.”

Liou Zhengming sized up Miaoqiu, ”From Xiaocheng? An apprentice? Then why did you bring her back?”

Lin Tian hurriedly said, ”Dad, don’t underestimate her, she was a bodyguard to a major figure, her skills are excellent. But at the moment, she has no place to stay in Celestial Dragon Continent.”

”So you brought her back?”

Lin Tian leaned his head close to Liou Zhengming’s ear, whispered, ”Many are watching me lately, I’m worried if I’m not around Qingcheng, she’d be in danger. You don’t know, Shishi was kidnapped seven or eight times recently, each time life or death. Nanqiu has experience as a bodyguard, I want her to stay with Qingcheng, so I can be more at ease.”

Upon hearing this, Liou Zhengming’s anger indeed subsided. If it was truly Lin Tian’s woman, how could she be a bodyguard? Moreover, when it concerned Liou Qingcheng’s safety, Liou Zhengming felt more at rest.

”Is she reliable?” asked Liou Zhengming.

Lin Tian grinned broadly, ”Absolutely reliable.”

”Alright then.”

Lin Tian slightly exhaled in relief, the father-in-law hurdle was crossed. He then said, ”Please help explain to mom later.”

”Sure,” Liou Zhengming nodded and agreed.

Then, the two escorted Nanqiu inside the house. Yan Xinrou, upon seeing Nanqiu, nearly hurled the spatula at Lin Tian’s head.

After Liou Zhengming’s explanation, Yan Xinrou also accepted the ’bodyguard’ with a cheerful smile.

Nanqiu, however, was displeased. Following Lin Tian was not her wish in the first place, now being a runner and bodyguard, what’s the deal?

Just as Nanqiu was about to voice her grievance, Lin Tian suddenly patted her back, then put his hand on her shoulder.

Afterwards, Nanqiu’s throat could no longer produce any sound; she wanted to stand up, but her shoulder was held so tightly by Lin Tian that she couldn’t move.

Being subdued with such ease left Nanqiu stunned, it was unbelievable! Previously she was the one who could take down opponents in a single move, how did the tables turn?
