Chapter 542 Chance Encounter
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Yang Ming's expression lightened up a little, "I am the guardian of these two children. Thank you for your concern, young lady."
"Guardian..." The young woman was silent, then she squatted down, touched Serena and said, "Little sister, promise me that you will try this kind of clothes when you grow up."
"Oh, okay..." Serena nodded, not quite understanding.
"That lady just now was so strange," Xiaozhi complained after leaving the clothing store, "I clearly didn't know her, but she suddenly barged in."
Yang Ming remained silent. For some reason, the woman just now gave him a familiar feeling. Unfortunately, he couldn't be sure of this because she had her face covered.
Just then, there was a noise ahead.
The three looked in the direction of the sound and saw a luxury car crashing into a street lamp. The car door was open and several burly men were standing beside it. A young man in fancy clothes was cursing at the street lamp.
"Asshole! I was driving fine on the road, it must be you, the pillar, who was deliberately making things difficult for me!"
The almost unreasonable cursing attracted the attention of passers-by around, and even the men who looked like bodyguards lowered their heads, wishing they could find a crack to crawl into.
"This guy must be mentally ill. He hit the street lamp and blamed it on the street lamp." Xiaozhi couldn't help but complain in a low voice.
But Yang Ming's eyes flickered. He strode through the crowd and came straight to the boy: "Little brother, do you still remember me?"
The young man turned his head and looked Yang Ming up and down with an impatient look, "Who are you? Get out of here! Otherwise, be careful of me..."
However, when he saw the two-headed dog token on Yang Ming's waist, the expression on the boy's face suddenly changed.
"Big, big, big, big boss?!"
"How dare you!" At this moment, the bodyguard beside him rushed up and pretended to grab Yang Ming's collar, "How dare you disrespect the young master? I will make you pay for it!"
"You are such a tactless person, you should get out of here!" The young man slapped the bodyguard in the face. "If you dare to disrespect this boss again, I will make you pack up and leave!"
"Young Master?..." The bodyguard covered his face with his hands, his face full of disbelief. When did this young master, who was always arrogant and domineering, become so nice to others?
Before he could react, he saw the young man apologize to Yang Ming with a fawning look on his face: "It's all because of my subordinates who are not tactful. Please forgive my mistakes, but don't take it to heart..."
Seeing that the young man who was so arrogant before was now so humble, the bodyguards were completely stunned. The passers-by around were also shocked and couldn't help whispering.
"Isn't this Master Alex from the Balfam Fragrance Palace? When did he become so easy to talk to?"
"Although this guy has become much more restrained since returning from the Johto region last time, he shouldn't be so humble to a stranger..."
Xiaozhi and Serena were stunned. A young nobleman with a rich background would actually kowtow to an ordinary young man. This was too shocking for two young boys and girls who were not well-versed in the world. For a moment, they looked at Yang Ming with curiosity and admiration.
Only Yang Ming and the boy named Alex know the truth behind this.
A year ago, Yang Ming, under the false identity of "Dongtian Rat King", went on a killing spree in the underground black market "Black Street" of Manjin City. There, he had a conflict with a noble young master from Carlos because of a "flame orb". As a result, the young master was very sensible and not only handed over the flame orb, but also offered the slaves he had bought at a high price. Therefore, Yang Ming not only did not embarrass him, but also promised to visit him when he came to the Carlos area.
This noble young master is none other than Alex in front of him.
Alex's family is the current owner of the former Carlos royal palace "Balfamu Fragrance Hall". In addition to an ancestor at the quasi-king level, the current head of the family and his several brothers and sisters have also reached the elite level. Although such strength cannot be called top-level strength in Carlos, it is enough to dominate one side.
But as a young member of the family, Alex has almost no talent as a trainer, which has led to him being excluded from the candidate list for the next generation of family head. Now that the other brothers and sisters in the family have the support of elite strongmen, only Alex is completely marginalized. In order to protect himself, he can only pretend to be a playboy to avoid being noticed by others.
When Yang Ming was killing everyone in the black streets, Alex felt scared but also a little excited. He knew that with his brothers' intelligence, he would not be able to win over strong enough people in the Carlos region, but it was a different story in the Johto region.
So Alex decisively gave up everything he had won at the auction and gave them all to the very dangerous elite man in front of him. On the one hand, it was to protect himself, and on the other hand, he also wanted to leave some impression points in the heart of this strong man. If the other party really came to the Carlos area in the future, then as a landlord, he would definitely be able to help. At that time, even if this mysterious strong man was unwilling to help him directly, as long as he was with him, his brothers and sisters would not dare to attack him for fear of going to war with an elite strong man.
As for taking the position of the next head of the family, Alex never even dreamed of that.
What Alex didn't expect was that the strength of this "big boss" in front of him had broken through again this year, and had reached the same level of strength as his ancestor...
"Dear masters and ladies, please get in the car!" Alex kindly invited Satoshi and Serena, who were still in a state of panic, to get in the car. He even drove the bodyguards out of the car because the seats were not spacious enough, and acted as the driver himself.
In his opinion, since the two boys and girls in front of him were with the "big boss", they must be of extraordinary status and were most likely the "big boss's" descendants. As a "young noble master" who looked bright and handsome but was actually in danger, he had to serve them well.
"We are going to the Bratano Institute. Can you give us a ride?" Yang Ming said lightly.
"As ordered!"
Alex was very considerate and didn't ask any unnecessary questions along the way. When he was ten meters away from the Bratano Institute, he stopped the car on the side of the road and waited there respectfully.
"I'll come out to find you when everything is done." Yang Ming looked at him deeply, then took Xiaozhi and Serena into the research institute.
