He reached out to unbutton Chen Xiao's coat!
Chen Xiao was startled.
"Please... let me help you change your clothes."
Miki Takeuchi's Chinese was quite broken, but paired with her soft, gentle voice, it sounded rather pleasant. Especially when she knelt before Chen Xiao, from his elevated position, he could clearly see a section of snow-white, full skin peeking out from under the front of her kimono, below her neck…
Chen Xiao coughed twice: "No need. I can change it myself."
"Fool, clumsy!" Old man Takeuchi seemed very displeased. Takeuchi Miki immediately shrank her neck, like a frightened deer.
This girl's temperament is very similar to that of Ya Ya in Chen Xiao's family, but she has a bit more of the gentleness of the legendary Japanese girls.
“Yako is my eldest granddaughter, and she’s been training with me in kendo the longest. She’s always served as a close attendant to His Highness the Prince. Most of my other younger relatives serve as kendo instructors or attendants in noble families. Only Miki, the youngest, has always been by my side.” Old Man Takeuchi thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said, “I’m not sure who arranged for you to serve as a close attendant to His Highness the Prince. But you are, after all, Chinese. Serving as a close attendant to His Highness the Prince is a special position, and you don’t seem to understand Japanese. Although I saw you brought a female translator, it’s not convenient to bring a Chinese female translator to many occasions after returning to Japan. My little granddaughter’s Chinese is quite good, and she comes from our family and has frequented royal and noble places since she was young. She won’t cause you any trouble in certain situations. I think it’s alright to let her serve as your translator and assistant for now?”
Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment.
However, the old man Takeuchi then made no attempt to conceal his purpose, saying, "Since you are General Tian's disciple, then... if you have time, please teach Miki some Chinese martial arts! Although she is a bit clumsy, she has been practicing martial arts with me since she was a child, and her comprehension is quite good."
Chen Xiao chuckled.
Want to learn Chinese martial arts from me? You've got a bad idea! It's true I know Lao Tian, but the only martial arts I've ever seriously learned is this one set of "short-range fighting."
As for other martial arts skills... I only learned a little bit from Xiao Qing, nothing that needs to be kept secret.
"Please...don't refuse." The girl with the youthful face and large breasts, Miki, immediately raised her head and looked at Chen Xiao with pitiful eyes: "I definitely won't cause you any trouble!"
"Oh, she also has a Chinese name. It's Tang Ying. Tang, naturally, is the name of the most powerful dynasty in your country's ancient history. And Ying... symbolizes the cherry blossom, which is the most beloved flower in Japan."
Before Chen Xiao could even nod, the old man Takeuchi immediately began to lecture his granddaughter, sternly shouting, "Stay by Mr. Chen's side and serve him carefully! Don't cause him any trouble! Do you understand? Do whatever Mr. Chen tells you to do! Mr. Chen's orders are as good as my own commands!"
"Hi!" The little girl immediately lowered her head.
And so, Chen Xiao left Takeuchi's training ground, and inexplicably followed behind him a little girl with a childlike face and large breasts, who looked like a star actress in Japanese AV, following him obediently like a cat.
She'll do whatever you tell her to do?
Serve them carefully?
Is it okay to serve you in bed?
Chen Xiao couldn't help but think strangely, and then sighed... Too evil, too evil!
However... I can't blame myself, because for the vast majority of Chinese men, the only Japanese woman they've ever seen in their lives comes from... AV!
However… having such a docile, maid-like girl by your side doesn’t seem so bad. As for what old Takeuchi was planning, Chen Xiao naturally understood.
only……
Chen Xiao quickly realized he was wrong!
This seemingly docile Tang Ying is anything but!
Chen Xiao decided not to go to the banquet hall. After all, Miss Sato had gone back to her room, and her outburst in the banquet hall had drawn hostile stares from everyone around her.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Xiao simply strolled out onto the deck.
The enormous cruise ship was sailing along, and a salty sea breeze blew across the deck. Chen Xiao stretched and reached out to hold onto the railing...
Just then, a series of chaotic footsteps came from behind.
Chen Xiao turned around and saw more than a dozen hostile Japanese men surrounding him. These Japanese men were all the subordinates of the young master Fujiwara who had given him a hard time in the banquet hall earlier. They were all dressed in samurai attire, wearing wooden clogs, and had samurai belts around their waists.
"Here!"
The leader, clearly looking for trouble, glared fiercely at Chen Xiao: "Chinese! So you were here after all! It wasn't safe to mess with you at the banquet, so you came out on your own! Now that His Highness the Prince isn't protecting you, and Master Takeuchi isn't around! Hmph!"
Chen Xiao frowned, looked at the Japanese who had come to cause trouble, and sighed.
"Actually... I really don't like Japanese people..." He smiled wryly, but wasn't afraid at all.
"Young Master ordered that we not be too ruthless, just take one of his hands!" The leader tilted his head fiercely, and after a few sharp shouts, two warriors beside him simultaneously drew their long swords, raised them high above their heads, and pounced fiercely!
Chen Xiao frowned, about to make a move, when suddenly...
In a flash, two warriors lunged at him, but suddenly they both screamed in agony. Two streams of crimson blood spurted through the air, and the two burly men were sent flying backward!
Clang! Clang!
With two thuds, two samurai swords fell to the ground! Even more terrifying, after the two burly men fell to the ground, they screamed like pigs being slaughtered, clutching their wrists and howling in agony.
Their hands—the hands that held the swords—had been severed at the wrists!
The short-handed man, still gripping the knife hilt, dropped it to the ground!
Before Chen Xiao stood the "docile" Takeuchi Miki. Tang Ying stood quietly in front of Chen Xiao, her pink kimono fluttering in the sea breeze. In her fair and delicate hands, she held the wakizashi short sword she always carried, with faint traces of crimson blood on the blade!
"I'm so sorry! I couldn't let you be rude to Mr. Chen!" The girl still spoke in that soft, gentle voice, bowing slightly to the group of warriors before her, her voice tinged with shyness and nervousness: "I'm sorry, I was rude!"
Chapter 139 of the main text: [How terrifying!]
The girl, named Takeuchi Miki (whose Chinese name is Tang Ying), still had a shy expression on her face, and her eyes were as frightened as a timid deer, as if the action of raising her hand and severing the wrists of the two men was not something she had done at all!
However, her demeanor grew increasingly respectful, and she bowed and apologized repeatedly, which only made the Fujiwara samurai opposite her feel a chill run down their spines, an indescribable eeriness...
Chen Xiao, standing behind Miki, had a stern expression!
He stared at the girl's retreating figure with some surprise...
