Chapter 207: You Need a Protector

Cambridge, England, is a small city under the jurisdiction of Cambridgeshire.

The Sword River, in an arc-shaped circle in the urban area, flows northeast into the Wusi River.

Many bridges were built over the river, hence the name Cambridge.

This place is also called Cambridge.

For a long time before 1209 AD, it was just a rural market town, and it barely attracted any attention except for the days of the market.

Even now, it is a small town of less than 100,000 people.

Now it is famous because of a university.

The University of Cambridge was founded in 1209.

With a history of nearly 800 years, the school outlasted most dynasties and is now a world-renowned public research university.

Cao Yusheng's son, Cao Mian, is a doctoral student here.

The young man is twenty-four years old, good-looking, academically excellent, generous and very good at fencing, and is the captain and coach of the Cambridge University fencing team.

When he was still in his junior year, he represented Cambridge University in the Commonwealth Universiade, and won three gold medals in foil, epee and fencing.

Although he has been a little quiet in the past few years because of his busy studies, there are still many female students who chase him.

The female students who chased him were not just a pursuit between men and women, but similar to the nature of chasing stars, which was a group.

Cao Mian is a person with a girlfriend who can't be disturbed, so he usually travels very low-key and hides from people.

Tonight is the first team event for the Cambridge University fencing team after Christmas.

Cao Mian had already faded out of this kind of activity, because he was about to graduate as a doctoral student and did not plan to stay in school.

However, he received a notice that today the school has assigned a new coach to the fencing team, and he has to come to the venue due to the need for the handover of duties.

As soon as he arrived at the venue, he was a little annoyed.

It's early.

Today's Cambridge fencing team, there are few men, most of them are female students, why they came, it is self-evident.

As soon as Cao Mian entered, she was surrounded by a crowd, and the female students said that they were asking about fencing skills, but the part of their eyes was not the wrist that Cao Mian was demonstrating.

For this situation, although Cao Mian has seen a lot, he is still a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Fencing is his favorite sport, and he wants to attract people more than his skills, not his appearance.

It's a pity that he can't control what others think of him, so he can only let it go.

It's just that the results of the fencing team in the past few years have been getting worse and worse.

It's a good thing to have a new coach come along.

Talking and chatting with the female students, I waited for more than half an hour, and there was a sound of high heels at the entrance of the venue.

This disgusted Cao Mian.

Because this is a multi-purpose venue, not only the fencing team, but also the basketball and volleyball teams usually train here, and the floor is covered with floors.

The heel of the high heel, which is sharp and hard, hurts the floor.

Wearing such shoes into the stadium is both unprofessional and unethical.

Cao Mian raised his eyes and looked over, and the whole person was slightly stunned.

He didn't expect this woman in high heels to be so beautiful.

Royal blue eyes, long black and straight shawl hair, and facial features are more three-dimensional than those of Orientals, but they are not as abrupt as Europeans.

It's obviously a very indifferent look, but because of the amazing beauty, it gives people a bright feeling.

Her dress is a blue evening dress, the curves are very beautiful, and the style should be backless.

It seems that she should appear at some grand dinner party, not this kind of stadium.

It doesn't make sense to dress up, but people are too beautiful, no matter where they are.

It seems that no matter how she dresses correctly, someone else has come to the wrong place.

Even if her high heels were stepping on the floor at the moment, it was the floor in the wrong place, and it was definitely not that she was wearing the wrong shoes.

However, Cao Mian came from an extraordinary background after all, and his knowledge was not comparable to that of ordinary people, so he soon woke up.

He looked at the beautiful woman and asked in English, "Who are you looking for, this lady?"

"I'm here for you. The woman replied in Chinese, then took off her high heels, held them in her hands, and complained, "Your donation dinner at Cambridge University is really boring." ”

Cao Mian frowned, feeling that this matter should not be simple, and asked, "What are you looking for me to do?"

"You don't have to wait, there is no new coach for the fencing team. Your Cambridge fencing team, once you graduate, will also disperse. The woman said lightly, "Since there has been no achievement for several years, there is no need to exist and waste our donors' money."

Cao Mian, it seems that there is indeed a problem with your leadership ability, and it is really not the material to be the head of the Cao family. ”

When this woman said these few words, Cao Mian knew that her bottom had been almost touched by this woman.

"Are you a door hunter?" asked Cao Mian.

"Not yet. "But I want to be a gatekeeper, so I need your help." ”

"How can I help?"

"You're going to participate in this year's Hunter's Peer League. The woman said.

Hearing this, Cao Mian frowned.

His father Cao Yusheng talked to him about the Hunting Gate, but he was not interested in the matter of Hunting Gate at all, so he didn't hear it.

Ever since he reached adulthood at the age of eighteen, his father has always respected his wishes.

So he didn't pick up the stubble, and his father never mentioned it again.

I don't know where this woman came from.

Could it be a lobbyist sent by his father?

But the lobbyist will not talk and act like her.

Looking at her expression, it didn't look like she had something to ask him Cao Mian, but Cao Mian owed her a huge amount of money.

No matter how beautiful a woman is, she can't be so unreasonable.

Cao Mian's expression became indifferent, and he said lightly: "I'm sorry, I can't help." ”

"Cao Mian, you seem to have made a mistake. The woman said, "You can't help this." ”

"Huh. Cao Mian was aroused by the anger in his heart, and said coldly, "Can you still force me?"

"I'm pretty confident. The woman pointed to the female student beside Cao Mian and said in English, "You, give him the sword in your hand." ”

This female student, blonde and blue-eyed, was practicing under Cao Mian's guidance before.

After listening to this for a long time, the two spoke Chinese, and she didn't understand.

Although I couldn't understand what they said, looking at the looks of the two, this woman seemed to be irritated by her handsome coach.

Coupled with the fact that this woman entered the venue in high heels, it was neither professional nor ethical.

The Englishwoman was filled with righteous indignation, and quickly stuffed the sword in her hand into Cao Mian's hand.

The sword in Cao Mian's hand at this moment, this is a flower foil, and it is the lightest sword among the three items of fencing, less than 500 grams.

Girls practice, generally this kind of sword, too heavy their wrists are easy to hurt.

And Cao Mian asked himself what he was best at, in fact, it was also this kind of foil.

Because of his swordsmanship, combined with a certain sword book in ancient China, he walked the path of light and agile sword.

After all, he is a child of a family of hunters, Cao Yusheng wants him to have some martial arts, so as not to be bullied outside, and at the same time he doesn't want him to suffer too much, so since he was a child, he handed over this sword book to him to practice.

Although practicing swords is also hard, it is still much more comfortable than practicing boxing.

Today's Cao Mian, as long as he holds a thing in his hand, he is usually ten or eight men, and it is not a problem to deal with it at all.

But to swing a sword at a woman, Cao Mian can't do this kind of thing.

So he looked at the sword in his hand and shook his head: "This young lady, I don't know who you are, and I don't want to know, please leave here immediately." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, Cao Mian only felt that his eyes were flickering, and his hands were already empty.

When he looked up again, the beautiful woman was still standing five or six meters away from him, holding a sword in her hand.

I saw the woman flick the sword with her fingers, and said with a disdainful expression: "This kind of Western stabbing sword is just a toy." ”

After saying this, the woman's index and middle fingers clamped the blade of the sword, and then folded it slightly.

"Ding" sound.

The steel foil was broken by her two fingers.

Cao Mian's eyelids jumped.

And the surrounding female students, after a burst of inhalation, it was quiet.

Since Cao Mian became the coach of the fencing team, this group of British ladies has never been so well-behaved.

"Cao Mian, if you only know this kind of pediatric swordsmanship and go to participate in the Hunter Gate Peer Alliance, you will indeed lose the face of the Cao family. The woman threw the two severed swords on the ground casually, looked at the eldest prince of the Cao family who was standing on the spot, and said lightly, "So, you need a protector." ”

"Protector?" Cao Mian muttered.

"Yes, the protector is the one who fights for you in the peer league. The woman said, "I've been idle lately, so I might as well accompany you on a trip." If I keep the position of the six major families for the Cao family, then as the most staunch ally of the Cao family, the head of the Lin family, should be very happy. ”

"Who the hell are you?"

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. The woman smiled, "I am the woman of Lin Shuo, the leader of the hunting gate today, and my name is Dilan." ”
