Chapter 120: System as the Father

In the car.

After the car left the Qin's villa, the voice of the system rang in Qiushui's mind.

{Congratulations to the host for completing the task, rewarding random 50 non-attribute lucky points.}

'50 points of no-attribute luck?'

Lee Minho couldn't help being taken aback, he didn't expect that there were so many.

Meanwhile, Yoon Jungsu came back to his senses.

First, he took a cautious look at the two bodyguards sitting in front, and then leaned close to Lee Minho's ear, and asked softly,

"Young Master Lee, are these your bodyguards?"

"It should be.... right?"

Lee Minho also glanced at the two bodyguards sitting in front, and said in an uncertain tone.

Although the system just said that they were all bodyguards selected for him.

Lee Minho also saw a few people who seemed to be thinner and didn't look like bodyguards just now.

Unexpectedly, the bodyguard sitting in the front passenger seat heard it and gave an answer.

"Master, we are the most professional bodyguards carefully selected by your father. In the coming days, we will protect your safety 24 hours a day."

'Father?'

Lee Minho and Yoon Jungsu were attracted by this word.

Yoon Jungsu thought to himself, sure enough, their guess was right.

Lee Minho is 100% from the Hermit family.

'His adoptive parents were just people who were pushed out to cover up Lee Minho's identity.'

Lee Minho's real parents are hidden in the dark.

Lee Minho came to the Qin family's banquet today and his parents probably knew that someone would attack Lee Minho at the banquet.

That's why these bodyguards were sent out in a high profile to protect Lee Minho.

When these bodyguards appeared, Yoon Jungsu didn't see any surprise on Lee Minho's face.

'Combined with what Lee Minho said just now, it is very likely that these bodyguards are only a small part of the many bodyguards in Lee Minho's family.'

That's why Lee Minho wasn't sure if these people were his bodyguards.

These bodyguards are all very imposing, and they look like the kind of characters that are not easy to mess with.

This time Lee Minho's family sent these people out in such a high-profile way.

Is this to warn those who want to attack Lee Minho, or are they not going to hide Lee Minho's identity anymore?

Lee Minho wondered, his adoptive parents were both dead, where did the father come from?

{I, father is this system.}

The system happily shouted in Lee Minho's mind.

"Get out, don't try to take advantage of me."

Lee Minho didn't expect that the system would take advantage of him and want to be his father?

The system explained.

{Don't be like this, this system can't help it. These are one of the strongest bodyguards in the world. To hire these bodyguards, you need a legitimate identity.}

{Moreover, the rewards that the host gets, also need a legitimate and correct way.}

"So you will pretend to be my real father who never appeared?"

It's a little system to be proud of.

Before that, Lee Minho was thinking about how the system cheated the rewards he got.

'Good guy, I didn't expect the system to pretend to be my father.'

The system spread its small hands.

{This system is using it reasonably, with powerful conditions, to help the host complete the task and get rewarded.}

"Hehe..."

Knowing that Lee Minho was angry, the system said in aggrieved tone.

{Host don't do this, this system didn't do it on purpose. Anyway, the host's biological parents took the initiative...}

Halfway through the conversation, the system suddenly stopped talking.

Lee Minho began to have clues.

"What happened to my biological parents? Keep talking."

'The system actually found my biological parents?'

The system shrank its head a little guilty.

Seeing that the system didn't speak, Lee Minho remained silent.

Lee Minho will never forget it in his life.

Although he was only five years old at that time, he remembered everything that should be remembered.

There's a couple crying and hugging him. Lee Minho can't remember what they're saying but he knows that there's something wrong.

So, in the winter, he was handed at the gate of the orphanage.

He spent an unforgettable time in the orphanage!

Until his adoptive parents showed up and took him away.

However, good people don't always live long. His adoptive parents also left him four years ago.

Seemingly feeling Lee Minho's sad emotions, the system comforted him a little helplessly.

{It's okay host, the host has this system now! This system will definitely make the host the best and richest person in the world.}

"I don't need to find out."

Lee Minho smiled.

"Don't you want to be my father? Then be my father forever."

{Ah?}

The system didn't expect that Lee Minho really let him pretend as his father.

'No, Lee Minho's words mean that he is not ready to meet his biological parents?'

Filled with righteous indignation, the system patted its chest and assured.

{The host can rest assured.}

'That's good.'

Lee Minho looked at the street lamps outside the window, with unprecedented coldness in his eyes.

Ten identical cars move forward around a similar but different car.

The convoy was on the road and attracted a lot of attention.

But because the car doesn't look like a luxury car, many people think it's just a luxury car that hasn't been released yet.

Or maybe a car dealership is engaging in activities.

When the cars entered Azure Retreat, it also attracted the attention of the security personnel at the gate.

The cars then stopped at the gate of the villa.

The bodyguards in the car quickly got out first, and then surrounded Lee Minho's car.

After observing the surroundings and finding no danger, they opened the car door and let Lee Minho out.

After Lee Minho got out of the car, the corner of his mouth twitched as he looked at the bodyguards who were waiting in battle.

Originally, he didn't think he was in any danger, but now look at these bodyguards.

He instantly felt that he was in danger.

With so many bodyguards, it's obviously telling others that his identity is not simple?

Every time he go out, isn't it the same as saying to those malicious people, come and look at me, I'm rich.

The system in Lee Minho's mind instantly knew what he thought, so he explained.

{Please rest assured host, this situation tonight is just a special case. The purpose is to deter those humans who targeted the host at the banquet.}

{After tonight, these people will only hide around the host unless there are danger.}

"That's good, otherwise it would be really awkward to be followed by these people so closely."

Lee Minho was no more than a commoner before, and he thought that the so-called bodyguard regiment in the system might just be a few bodyguards.

Unexpectedly, there's thirty.

After sending Lee Minho and Yoon Jungsu back to the villa.

Among the thirty bodyguards, only five male bodyguards remained, staying in the villa, continuing to protect Lee Minho.

The others left with nine black vehicles.

They are divided into six groups, one group every day, taking turns to protect Lee Minho.

However, the car Lee Minho was sitting in and another black car were left behind.

"Master, this is the car your father has gave you."

The bodyguard handed the key to Lee Minho respectfully with both hands.

"He gave it to me?"

Lee Minho took the key.

It's just that the front of the car has a logo similar to his Lightning King that has golden circle plus a red five-pointed star.

Because there is a golden dragon beside the red five-pointed star.

"It's a bit similar to my car...?"

Lee Minho asked uncertainly.

Before the bodyguard could answer, Yoon Jungsu who was at the side took a step ahead.

"This is the Red Star Dragon Knight. I never thought that I would have the opportunity to sit on this car in my life."

Yoon Jungsu took two steps forward, staring obsessively at the car in front of him.

With trembling hands, he wanted to touch the car body, but he was afraid that his clumsy hands would damage the paint on the car, so he withdrew his hands.

"Red Star Dragon Knight?"

Lee Minho was puzzled, and asked the system in his mind.

"Is this car expensive?"

Seeing Yoon Jungsu's reaction that time, this car seems to be not simple!

{Red Star Dragon Rider was jointly built by the Red Star Automobiles and Gothic Company which is giant company in the world.}

{It is also a limited-edition car with the highest safety factor in the world.}

{Whether it is the windows or the body of the car, they are all made of special materials. They can block basically all gun bullets in the world today.}

{n addition to it's defense, this car also has automatic driving and alarm functions. When the host is in danger, the car will immediately send an alarm to the host's bodyguard and the nearest public security system.}

{And when the automatic driving function is activated, it will automatically send the host to the nearest safe place.}

Seeing that the system was talking nonstop, Lee Minho interrupted it directly.

"Alright I get it, just get to the point, how much is this car?"

The system pouted.

{How can the host only care about the price? There are only 5 of this car in the world. It is a car that even the rich can't buy. Even the car logo is made of pure gold.}

"How much..."

{300 million dollars.}

Lee Minho took a deep breath.

"300 million dollars? Who paid for it?"

The system sound very distressed.

{The money spent by the system together with the cars and houses equipped by the bodyguards.}

Lee Minho then breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's okay."

'As long as you don't spend my money, you can talk about anything.'

Lee Minho tentatively asked.

"Is that car really for me? You're really generous?"

No matter how you think about it, it doesn't feel right.

But Lee Minho let it go since it's not his money. He was sure that the system will not do something illegal.
