Did We Know Each Other Before

["Big sister, should I get someone to prove myself to you, or should I just let you in like in the previous life?"]

Xu Mo hesitated.

Letting someone in without testing didn't seem right.

If it were just the two of them, it would be easier to discuss.

But Jiang Jiajia was watching from the side.

It would be better to at least make a show of it, for propriety's sake.

"Jiajia, please go downstairs and call my bodyguards up."

Xu Mo smiled.

Jiang Jiajia looked at Xu Mo, then at An Youyi, "Yes, Mr. Xu, how many people do you need?"

Xu Mo thought for a moment, then said,

"Call all of them."

Xu Mo wanted to take this opportunity

To dismiss all the bodyguards arranged by his parents.

These men were all elite among elites.

Unfortunately, they weren't good enough.

When faced with someone who knew Ancient Martial Arts Technique, they were instantly done for.

Keeping them required paying huge monthly expenses.

It wasn't worth it at all.

Wouldn't that money be better spent on ear cleaning?

"Yes, Mr. Xu."

Jiang Jiajia nodded and left, her high heels clicking as she walked away.

At this moment, An Youyi's head was spinning.

As a top professional assassin in the industry!

She was one hundred percent certain she hadn't misheard earlier.

Previous life?

This meant they must have known each other.

While Jiang Jiajia went to gather people,

An Youyi looked directly at Xu Mo and suddenly asked,

"Did we know each other before?"

Xu Mo was bewildered by the question, then his expression froze!

[Don't tell me you've gone crazy too]

[We did know each other, but that was in the previous life]

"I don't think so. Miss An, this is our first meeting. If you don't want to take the test, I can hire you as my personal bodyguard directly."

Xu Mo smiled naturally, trying to ease his inner awkwardness.

"Hmm, I must have been mistaken," An Youyi withdrew her gaze, her tone calm. "No need, let's do the test."

Inside, she was just as unsettled as Xu Mo,

Though she didn't show it on the surface!

Even though she was an assassin,

Hearing the mystical term 'previous life'

She couldn't help but be surprised.

Her reaction was identical to Li Jiaxin's when she heard Xu Mo's inner thoughts earlier.

Seeing that An Youyi didn't say anything more,

Xu Mo unconsciously touched his nose, feeling relieved inside.

Make a note that this one hasn't gone crazy.

Both harbored their own thoughts as they waited quietly.

Soon after,

Jiang Jiajia returned with seven tall, burly bodyguards in black suits.

These bodyguards, hearing someone was here to take their jobs, immediately became upset.

They all exuded killing intent, as if they'd been injected with adrenaline.

The Xu family offered several times the industry standard salary.

With minimal work required.

It was practically a golden rice bowl.

Now that this golden rice bowl was about to be taken away,

How could they not be angry?

"Young Master Xu, you called for us."

The lead bodyguard said.

Xu Mo nodded and briefly explained the situation to them.

Then he moved aside to watch the show.

Well... to watch his bodyguards get beaten up.

"Brother Niu, let me handle this. I thought it would be some big shot, but it's just a girl." One of the subordinates cracked his knuckles.

His eyes full of contempt as he looked at An Youyi →_→

With that physique?

She dared to come and try to take their jobs.

She probably didn't even know how to spell 'death'.

Yu Tieniu agreed: "Go ahead!"

It was better if the subordinate went first.

It would give Yu Tieniu and others a chance to observe.

Though they didn't say anything,

Their faces were full of disdain ( ̄_, ̄)

It wasn't that they were looking down on people.

If a man had come to challenge them, that would have been fine.

But a woman showed up, and a stunningly beautiful one at that.

Was she really here to apply for a bodyguard position?

Was this the proper kind of bodyguard, or the improper kind?

If An Youyi had said she was applying to be a personal bodyguard,

They would have left immediately,

Accepting defeat willingly.

But she was here to cause trouble!

The bodyguard smiled and warned, "Miss, fists don't have eyes. You can still forfeit now. I don't want to ruin your pretty face."

If she had been ugly,

The bodyguard would have started fighting already.

An Youyi ignored him and looked towards Xu Mo instead, saying coldly,

"Do I need to pay for anything I break?"

Xu Mo smiled, "No need."

An Youyi nodded and turned her attention back to the group.

"All of you can come at once."

The bodyguard's face turned ashen, and the others' expressions weren't any better.

"You're asking for death!"

He channeled his inner energy.

His eyes filled with intense killing intent.

Not just anyone could eat from this bowl of rice that was the bodyguard profession!

His fist flew like the wind, aiming for An Youyi's delicate face.

An Youyi neither retreated nor dodged, her seemingly fragile hands easily caught the bodyguard's incoming fist.

Then came the sound of breaking bones!

She had twisted the bodyguard's wrist until it broke.

As he let out a painful scream,

The bodyguard tried to attack An Youyi's lower body with his leg.

Almost simultaneously, An Youyi also raised her leg.

To be precise, her leg moved twice as fast as the bodyguard's!

At that moment,

Xu Mo heard the sound of an eggshell cracking.

His back involuntarily chilled.

Hiss....

This was much more fierce than eating a peach.

So cold-----

Then a pig-like scream filled the hallway.

It hurt to see and hurt to hear.

Every strike was lethal!

It wasn't that An Youyi meant to be this way, it was just how she fought.

She didn't know what it meant to hold back.

Or what it meant to maintain future relationships.

Xu Mo thought he might need to teach her this in the future.

But then again, maybe not.

After all, An Youyi was the Dragon King's mole.

Much more formidable than Li Jiaxin.

In less than a few minutes,

The intense pain caused the bodyguard to black out and faint.

"How dare you!"

Yu Tieniu's expression changed; he knew his brother's skills well.

Yet he couldn't even last five minutes against An Youyi.

This was too ridiculous.

At this point, Yu Tieniu abandoned his pride and shouted: "Everyone attack together!"

The five bodyguards behind him moved in unison.

Demonstrating what it means to say a tree without bark will surely die,

A person without shame is invincible under heaven.

Yu Tieniu didn't rush to join the fight.

Like a deadly viper, he continued to observe.

Patiently waiting for an opportunity!

As soon as An Youyi showed even a slight opening,

Yu Tieniu would strike decisively.

In the midst of the chaos,

An Youyi moved like an agile leopard, effortlessly weaving through the crowd.

Due to her training in Ancient Martial Arts Technique,

Even her ordinary punches were several times stronger than theirs.

It's no exaggeration to say

An Youyi's close combat skills completely overwhelmed and dominated these bodyguards!

Soon one bodyguard after another fell to the ground!

Yu Tieniu couldn't wait any longer; if this continued, everyone would be down.

There would be no point in playing anymore.

He decisively joined the fight.

"Mr. Xu, I'm so scared!"

Jiang Jiajia unconsciously moved closer to Xu Mo.

Her white rabbits at the neckline trembled nervously.

Her eyes were filled with terror and bewilderment.

Ten minutes ago,

Jiang Jiajia would never have believed An Youyi had such capabilities.

But now looking at it,

The bronze-level fighter in the secretary's eyes turned out to be a king!

One person fighting seven burly bodyguards, not only holding her own

But actually beating them all down.

Xu Mo wasn't sure if Jiang Jiajia was intentionally trying to get close to him.

The soft jade pressed hard against him.

But for someone as easygoing as him,

How could he care about such details?

"Don't be afraid, we're far enough away, they won't hurt us."

Xu Mo smiled reassuringly.

The commotion here had grown too large.

Some shareholders and managers from nearby offices came out with confused faces.

By the time they came out,

An Youyi's employment test had concluded.
