Chapter 2597 - 2533: What a Coincidence in Life

So she directly said, "I have trouble with some shady characters, so I need to be prepared just in case."

Zhu Shun glanced at her again, without a smile.

"Be careful, do you need me to get you a gun?"

A gun?

Chiang Xiao was stunned for a moment, and while she hesitated to speak, she heard him continue with a serious tone, "If you truly face danger, shoot first, don’t worry about what’s right; it’s better to kill than to have trouble yourself. Whatever the outcome, think about consequences after you shoot."

This...

Chiang Xiao looked at his earnest expression, suddenly recalling his past experiences.

It must be because of those experiences, because his pregnant wife and parents were tragically killed, that he developed such hostility, believing that personal safety is paramount no matter what.

"No need, Brother Xinian probably won’t let me use a gun."

Chiang Xiao shook her head, adding, "My skills are decent; I should be able to protect myself."

"Did Xinian teach you?"

"Yeah."

"Alright then, just be more careful, don’t roam around at night."

Though it was only their second meeting, knowing his past experiences, Chiang Xiao did not find his concern intrusive and acknowledged that Zhu Shun’s words were sincere.

Recalling how Zhu Shun merely warned her in the previous life, Chiang Xiao felt somewhat melancholic.

Life is unpredictable.

I wonder how this lifetime’s Zhu Shun will turn out.

"By the way, Brother Shun, I have something to ask you."

"Go ahead." After his warnings, Zhu Shun’s serious demeanor dissolved.

"Do you know Boss Du?"

"Cough cough."

Zhu Shun suddenly started coughing, looking at Chiang Xiao in surprise.

This reaction puzzled Chiang Xiao; what does it mean?

"Is this coincidence too uncanny?" Zhu Shun scratched the back of his head, saying, "You wouldn’t happen to have some sixth sense knowing what new job I’ve taken, would you?"

Chiang Xiao shook her head, "I don’t know."

"Someone asked me to be a martial arts coach for half a year."

"Martial arts coach?"

"That’s what we call it," Zhu Shun said, "Basically, I’m going there to teach some people kung fu."

A coach...

Didn’t expect Zhu Shun to actually take on anything.

Yet, staying in one place for half a year just as a coach should be much better than running around all the time.

But what does this have to do with the question she just asked?

Chiang Xiao felt a pang in her heart as she considered this, looking at Zhu Shun, "Brother Shun, where are you going to coach?"

Zhu Shun clapped his hands, saying, "Coincidentally, you mentioned Boss Du. I don’t know Boss Du personally, but I’ve heard of him and know a guy named Da Long who works for him. Da Long asked me over, so by calculation, I’m going to work under Boss Du."

How could this be so coincidental...

Chiang Xiao was also shocked.

They were looking to find Boss Du, and now Zhu Shun is going to work under Boss Du?

Seeing Chiang Xiao’s expression, Zhu Shun paused, asking, "Is Boss Du the one you got into trouble with? Is there a conflict?"

"No, not yet," Chiang Xiao frowned, "But if it’s confirmed he sent people after us, then he’s an enemy."

If it turns out that the people who tried to kill Cheng Cheng were sent by Boss Du, then he is certainly her enemy.

Zhu Shun made a sound, looking conflicted.

"Oh no, I’ve already promised Da Long, what now? If I really go, wouldn’t I be siding against you all?"
