Super Soldier - Chapter 444
Chapter 444 Call Me Brother Qiang
Xiao Bing smiled, “Please don’t be surprised. These friends of mine are all from Country R. Though they look like vicious men, they are harmless. Please take care of them and teach them our language. They might need to work in this country later.”
Sun Boxue shook his head and managed a wry smile, “They don’t look harmless to me.”
“It’s not good to judge a book by its cover.” Xiao Bing smiled and looked at the men and said in Language R, “This old man will be your teacher from now on. He will be teaching you the language of this country, every day. You must respect him and you can ask him any questions about the language, politely.”
Then they addressed him reverently in unison, “Mr. Sun.”
Sun Boxue had mastered many languages and one of them was Language R, so Xiao Bing invited him to do this job. Su Boxue answered their greetings, “Hi. So from now on, I’ll be teaching you. If you are diligent and smart enough, you will be able to start communicating in simple sentences with the others within a month. And three or four months later, you will barely have any problems communicating fluently with the others.”
Then these men answered him with greater respect, “Thanks for your guidance.”
They had to learn this language if they wanted to follow Xiao Bing. For someone who had experienced something worse than death, they were a thousand times more determined than the others So the old professor might be surprised by their progress, no matter how linguistically gifted they were.
Xiao Bing then left with Dumbass and Zhan Hongyan after he issued some other orders. Xiao Bing got a call from Bing Tingting soon after they left the mansion. Xiao Bing pulled the car over and said with smile, “Hey, Tingting, you are not working?”
Bi Tingting pouted, “Brother Bing, you don’t even miss me.”
Her voice was loud enough for Dumbass and Zhan Hongyan to hear. Xiao Bing turned down the voice volume instantly.
Dumbass and Zhan Hongyan, who were in the backseat, exchanged glances. Dumbass asked stupidly, “Boss, are you cheating on Yezi?”
Xiao Bing looked back and said to them, “I’ll buy you dinner later.”
Before Zhan Hongyan could say anything, Dumbass shook his head instantly and said, “No. That’s not enough.”
Zhan Hongyan could not help tittering when she saw the cunning gleam in his eyes. Dumbass might be clumsy, but he was not stupid.
Xiao Bing kept talking to Bi Tingting on the phone, “I’ve been pretty busy these days. Besides, I just called you yesterday. I thought you were on a shoot.”
“I am. But does work matter more than the things my man asked for?”
Xiao Bing’s eyes brightened. “Is there any progress on it?”
“Yes. Otherwise why would I be calling you… I’ve been busy with work these two days, but I still put your request on the priority list. How should you thank me? Maybe you should accompany me for three days, the next time I visit Jiang City.”
“…” Though Xiao Bing had turned down the voice volume, he still feared that the others would be able to hear Bi Tinting’s voice. He chuckled and said, “Let’s talk about the real matter. Who did you choose? Is he reliable? When can he come?”
“He’s a stuntman. But he’s thirty, so it’s not appropriate for him to play a rich and young master. But he looks like the leader of a gang. He was once the stuntman for Wang Xiaoming, when he was playing a role called Xu Wenqiang.”
Xiao Bing snapped his fingers. “He sounds perfect for this job.”
“He’s not as handsome as Wang Xiaoming, but he still looks good. But what’s more important is that he’s much better at acting. But nepotism and experience are necessary in this industry. He can only be a stuntman if he lacks these two things. I promised him that if he does well this time, I’ll try to get him an important supporting role. It might be the chance for him to be famous. He cherishes this opportunity very much.”
Xiao Bing grinned, “So I guess I can save my money… But I won’t let him go home with his hands empty. I can’t leave him with the impression that your friends are downright stingy, right?”
Bi Tingting smiled, “The money is not the problem. A precious opportunity is much more valuable than money. Actually, many starlets will fight for this opportunity. I chose him because I heard that his acting is excellent.”
“Okay. When can he come?”
“It depends on you. If you want to start tonight, he can come to Jiang City tonight.”
“Okay. Thanks.”
“You’re welcome… I just need you to sleep with me…”
“…” She was a goddess to her audiences, yet she was quite vulgar in front of him.
After he hung up, Xiao Bing looked back and noticed that both Dumbass and Zhan Hongyan were looking at him in a weird way. Xiao Bing cleared his throat and asked, “Why are you looking at me like that? Because I’m too handsome.”.
Zhan Hongyan laughed, “Because you’re the most shameless person I’ve ever met.”
“…”
Zhan Hongyan sighed, “The gang leader of the three provinces in the north has to please another woman. If Yezi knows about it, god knows what will happen.”
Xiao Bing looked defeated instantly. He smiled awkwardly and said, “What do you want to eat for lunch?”
“It depends on your sincerity.” Zhan Hongyan said with a smile. She was not as aloof as she used to be, after she moved into Xiao Mansion.
Xiao Bing answered instantly, “I’ll buy you guys lunch at Shangri-La.”
Zhan Hongyan smiled instantly, “Then I heard nothing.”
Dumbass said, “Me too.”
“You guys are so bad.” Smiling bitterly, Xiao Bing drove towards the direction of Shangri-la.
Xiao Bing treated Zhan Hongyan and Dumbass to a feast at the restaurant. Then they spent some time in Xiao Bing Mansion. Later Xiao Bing took Zhan Hongyan and Dumbass to pick up Xu Wenting. Then they headed toward the airport.
It seemed that the actor really cared about this assignment. Xiao Bing then realized how hard it was for the starlets in the entertainment industry. After talking to Xiao Bing on the phone, the one chosen by Bi Tingting agreed to fly in immediately. After all, it was an opportunity given by the superstar.
On the way to the airport, Xiao Bing briefly told them about his plan. When she heard that Xiao Bing had managed to find a professional actor, she became more confident about this. She was very grateful to Xiao Bing now, because professional actors were hard to find. Besides, the plan sounded as if they were playing childish games. She surmised that it had cost Xiao Bing a lot to get the actor to agree.
Dumbass and Zhan Hongyan both said that they would make the mistress pay for what she had done. When they were having lunch in that restaurant, Xiao Bing told them about this. After all, this plan might need more helpers.
They entered the airport after they parked the car outside. Dumbass took out the placard which had the actor’s name on it and held it up, as they waited.
This actor’s name was Zhang Qiang. He was from He Bei province and he had always been only a stuntman. He barely could make a living, but he had big dreams.
People began flooding out soon after. Xiao Bing surmised that Zhang Qiang’s flight had arrived. Dumbass and Xu Wenting were curious and excited about the actor, even though he was not a famous one. But Zhan Hongyan was not. She had walked on the edge of life and death too many times. She did not admire celebrities like other young girls did.
When compared to the celebrities, powerful masters like Xiao Bing, Gao Fei or Miyamoto Shinji, were more appealing to Zhan Hongyan. The three powerful masters in Xiao Mansion were her icons.
But soon the passengers left one by one, and they did not see the actor yet. Zhan Hong Yan asked, “Brother Bing, can you call him? Did he decide not to come?”
Xu Wenting seemed disappointed.
Grinning, Xiao Bing pointed to the front and said, “Look.”
There came a man who was about 30 years old. He was wearing a pink checked shirt, a pair of white trousers and a pair of leather shoes. These were all branded stuff. On his wrist was an expensive watch and he was wearing black shades. He walked out of the passageway in an aloof manner, holding a black bag in his hands,
The aloofness on his face made him look like an emperor who was inspecting his subjects. It seemed like he could not be bothered about the lesser men at all.
The three of them gasped and were shocked by the vibes this man was giving out.
Xu Wenting asked in bewilderment, “Brother Bing, he’s the actor?”
Xiao Bing grinned, “He should be the one, going by his vibes…”
Zhan Hongyan asked as this man approached them, “You are Zhang Qiang?”
The actor cast a sweeping glance at them. Then he fixed his gaze at Xiao Bing and held out his hand. While he was about to shake hands with Xiao Bing, he cast an aloof glance at Zhan Hongyan and said, “Call me Brother Qiang.”
