Antonio's request was too much. As a newcomer, how could Gao Guang go to Renato for help? If it was John, he would definitely refuse directly. Americans don't have the word "euphemism" in their dictionary, but Gao Guang is different. With his high emotional intelligence, his ability to get along with people, and the influence of Chinese culture, he had to make Antonio feel comfortable even if he refused.

First, Gao Guang sighed, then he put his hand on Antonio's shoulder. He lowered his voice and said seriously, "Brother, the boss values you so much. It's not good for you to refuse like this."

Antonio was stunned and said, "Value me? Impossible."

With a helpless expression, Gao Guang shook his head and said in a low voice, "If he doesn't value you, why did he ask you to come and be a bodyguard?"

Antonio immediately shook his head and said, "No, no, no. I'm here to deal with the Russians. Do you understand? Brother, we are not bodyguards. We are ready to attack the Russians at any time. I really don't know how to protect anyone. I can only kill people. I'm like a forward, but the boss wants me to play as a center back. No, he wants me to be a goalkeeper."

"I know you can only kill people and not protect them, but Mike and I..." Gao Guang pointed to Mike and said, "We only know how to protect people."

"No, the boss doesn't like me, so he doesn't want to see me. That's why he kicked me out."

Antonio seemed to know everything and left Gao Guang at a loss for words. But he immediately said, "We need to complement each other. If someone really comes to harm the boss, we two will block the bullets, and you have to kill the enemy."

Without giving Antonio a chance to argue, Gao Guang said with a heavy heart, "Brother, the boss trusts you. Even if he doesn't like you, he definitely trusts you. Otherwise, why would he give you such an important job? You are protecting his family. How can you ask him to change your job? Can you live up to the boss's trust?"

Antonio was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Um, okay, maybe the boss really doesn't like me, but he does trust me. Okay, I'll listen to you."

That's right. Gao Guang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's divide the work. If there really is an enemy, you will be responsible for killing them. You don't have to worry about the small things like personal protection. Leave it to us. We need a master like you."

Antonio was very satisfied with Gao Guang's attitude, so he smiled and said, "As long as I don't have to work under Robert, it's okay. Okay, I'll listen to you. If you need me to do anything, just tell me."

Suddenly, Mike asked, "What's wrong with Robert? He seems like a good person."Antonio immediately frowned, then whispered, "Oh no, he's not... guys, I can't say he's not a good person, but I advise you not to anger Robert. You can't imagine how vicious he can be. He can torture someone for seven days and they won't die... um, I can't say anymore, it's disgusting to think about it."

Gao Guang and Mike glanced at each other and found fear in each other's eyes.

At this moment, the door suddenly opened and Sofia walked out holding a book. She didn't show any special expression towards Gao Guang, but just said to the three of them, "I'm ready, we can leave anytime. Where's my brother?"

Mike shrugged and said, "He's doing homework."

Sofia suddenly realized and said, "Oh, he can't go to class these days, which makes him very anxious. So he writes a lot of homework every day. Where should we wait? You can come in and sit for a while."

Antonio immediately said, "Okay."

As he was about to leave, he found that Gao Guang and Mike had not moved. He immediately said, "What, we can't sit?"

Mike whispered, "Buddy, we're bodyguards. We have to stay alert and can't relax at any time. We should be more vigilant around the protectee, but someone needs to stay outside and pay attention to the situation outside. How about this..."

Mike looked at Gao Guang and said, "Boss, you and Miss Sofia go, I'll protect Louis. Antonio can stay in the corridor. What do you think?"

This was a good plan, but just as Gao Guang was about to speak, someone suddenly shouted loudly, "Mad dog, come over here."

Gao Guang looked over and saw that it was Danny calling him.

Danny arrived quickly enough, and now he couldn't maintain his position as a guard. Gao Guang whispered, "You two stay alert, I'll be right back."

Gao Guang ran to Danny's side, and Danny looked very serious. After Gao Guang approached him, he said directly, "I called you, but your phone was turned off."

"Uh, we're not allowed to use phones."

Danny nodded and continued in a low voice, "I haven't gone to see Renato yet, I came to see you first. I heard you've been doing very well, and Renato is very satisfied with you?"

"Yes, he appreciates me."

Danny immediately said, "Did he invite you to be his bodyguard or work for him, regardless of your position? Did he?"

"Yes, he wanted me to be his bodyguard, but I refused."

"Refused?" Danny looked very surprised and whispered, "Did you really refuse? What are you doing now?"

"I'm still a bodyguard, but now I'm protecting his daughter."Danny's face immediately showed a surprised but satisfied expression. He whispered, "Very good, very good! If you agree to his invitation, then I can't say anything. Listen, Renato's situation is extremely dangerous. Mr. Smith doesn't want you to get involved in an unmanageable situation. It's good that you refused."

"Extremely dangerous? What else could be dangerous now?"

Danny sighed and said helplessly, "Follow me. There are some things you need to know. It's not appropriate for me to tell you later, but it's okay for you to listen in. Remember, don't reveal your true relationship with Mr. Smith. You can express that you are closer to Smith and me. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand. I won't talk nonsense."

Gao Guang found himself in a very delicate position. In theory, he was just an acquaintance of Mr. Smith, not even his subordinate, let alone his heir or collaborator. It was the same with Renato's side. Gao Guang was nothing, but Renato trusted and valued him because of his performance, especially with Mr. Smith's factor.

Therefore, it was interesting now. Gao Guang couldn't tell which direction things would go, but it was not a bad thing to have the attention of two big shots.

Danny was very satisfied with Gao Guang's reaction. He nodded and said, "Follow me."

This time, Gao Guang followed Danny to the study room. Robert was guarding outside the door. He opened the door and waited for Danny and Gao Guang to enter before following them in and closing the door behind him.

Renato was still sitting behind the desk. He seemed a little surprised when he saw Danny bringing Gao Guang in. After taking another look at Gao Guang, he immediately asked, "You're here. How is it?"

Danny stood opposite Renato and said seriously, "Mr. Salvini, we cannot directly participate in your war with Graliev."

Renato shrugged and said, "I haven't given you a price yet."

"It's not a matter of price. We cannot do anything that would anger the authorities on American soil. Mr. Salvini, we can exclude legal security teams to protect you, but we cannot send a group of mercenaries to attack Graliev."

Renato sighed and said, "I thought you came here in person to discuss the price issue with me. What's wrong? Is there something Mr. Smith is afraid to do?"

Danny immediately said, "It's not a matter of being afraid or not. It's a matter of whether it can be done or not. Mr. Salvini, we can quickly mobilize manpower. Before tomorrow noon, we can have a group of desperados launch a suicide attack on Graliev. As long as the money is in place, these are not problems. But the problem is that the FBI is watching you too closely now, and we can only help you within the legal framework.""Renato was about to say more, but Danny interrupted urgently: 'Please let me finish. I just talked to Mad Dog to find out the situation. Combining the information I gathered, Mr. Salvini, your current situation is very dangerous. We are willing to send people to protect you, even at great risk.'

"'Dangerous? What danger do I have? There are police and FBI everywhere outside, and Graiev wouldn't dare-'

"Danny interrupted sternly: 'Graiev is crazy!'

"Renato frowned before finishing his sentence: 'He was already crazy. He even dared to attack my house with a helicopter. This is Beverly Hills!'

"Danny didn't hesitate and said bluntly: 'Mr. Salvini, forgive me for being frank, but you have been in the legitimate business for too long. You have underestimated Graiev's madness and determination. You want to beat him, but he only wants to die with you!'

"Renato fell silent for a long time before whispering: 'That damn Russian!'

"'I received information that Graiev has disappeared. He is hiding, and this is the prelude to a comprehensive attack. In addition, I learned through a secret channel that the Russians purchased rocket launchers, a large amount of C4, four heavy machine guns, large-caliber sniper rifles four days ago. He centralized the purchase of these weapons.'

"Danny took a step forward, staring directly at Renato and said in a low voice: 'This intelligence was given to you for free by Mr. Smith. This is the United States. Buying these weapons costs a fortune, Mr. Salvini. They are not used for gang fights.'

"Renato's face changed, and Robert also said seriously: 'Is the information reliable?'

"'Absolutely reliable!'

"Robert immediately looked at Renato and said: 'We can't wait until tomorrow. We need to move now!'

"Gao Guang understood. Danny brought him along to let him know how serious the situation was.

"Now Gao Guang's mind flashed with many idioms, such as luring the tiger out of the mountains, stirring up the grass to startle the snake, and taking a circuitous route to deceive the enemy. In short, Renato staying in this villa was very dangerous because Graiev might launch a suicide attack. But leaving now was also dangerous because Graiev might ambush them on the way.

"Renato sighed lightly, looking helpless: 'I underestimated Graiev. What do you think we should do?'

"Danny didn't hesitate and said decisively: 'Sign a security contract immediately. We can send 160 of the best legal security personnel to expand the defense area and ensure your safety. But only by killing Graiev can we be completely safe. Even if we capture him, it won't work. But we can put pressure on the FBI and use their channels to find Graiev as soon as possible. Then you only need to kill him before the FBI!'"Reynato quickly said, "But I don't have enough manpower to do these things. I've already called in the gunmen to deal with Grayev to protect me. There are only a dozen people left, and I can't guarantee that Grayev will be killed."

Danny said calmly, "We only do legal things, but we can provide a solution and charge only a reasonable consulting fee."

"Name your price, sign the contract."

"Alright, please wait a moment." Danny nodded slightly, then looked at Gao Guang and said, "I'll take care of things here. Mr. Smith wanted to tell you something, but he couldn't get through to your phone. You should give him a call."

Danny was so helpful, he quietly set up a ladder for Gao Guang to climb up quickly.

Gao Guang looked at Reynato with difficulty and whispered, "We are not allowed to carry mobile phones."

Danny appeared somewhat surprised and looked at Reynato, apologizing, "I'm sorry, Mr. Smith has urgent business with him, otherwise I wouldn't let him leave his post. Uh, can he make a phone call?"

Reynato immediately said, "Of course he can. I have him protecting my child now. If Mr. Smith has a more important task for him, he should definitely go and do the important thing."

Danny immediately said, "Protecting your child is the most important thing! Since you have arranged his work, he must do his best, and he will definitely do his best!"

Reynato nodded and then looked at Gao Guang and said, "It's Sam's rule not to allow mobile phones, but you can be an exception. Go and get your phone back, and you can use it whenever you want."

Gao Guang found that all the bosses he had met were smart, and their subordinates were all clever people. They were all top-notch in dealing with people, speaking, and handling affairs. He didn't know how those movies dared to portray those big figures as so stupid.

Reynato might have underestimated Grayev's madness, but when he realized something was wrong, he almost immediately made the most correct response, which was to let professionals handle professional matters, spend a lot of money, and fight this battle first. There was no room for anger or smashing things.

Now, the ladder was set up, and it was time for Gao Guang to climb up.

Without overdoing it, Gao Guang just bowed slightly and said calmly, "Thank you again for your trust. Now I'll go and do my job."

Gao Guang left after speaking, and after watching Gao Guang gently close the door, Reynato sighed, "Although he's young, he's really calm, and he has indeed helped me a lot. I have to admit, Smith has a lot of talent under his command. Alright, now let's talk about the contract issue, you can quote a price now."
