Note from translator:

Hi everyone,

This is meefen. School Beauty Personal Bodyguard (SBPB) is one of my favorite novels, so I hope that you guys can enjoy it with me. But before you guys start reading, I must first confess that English is not my first language, so I am not exactly very good at it (especially the grammars), but I am trying my best. So please bear with me if I made any mistake. I hope that my, some what horrible, English does not ruin your reading experience too much.

Really grateful to qidqueen from Reddit, for helping me edit my translations.!!!

Thank you

Chapter 1 - A Mysterious Mission

"This is your reward for your contributions in North Africa." Gramps Lin took out two crumpled notes from the rag-wrapped bundle and passed them to Lin Yi, who stared at the notes intently.

Lin Yi had so many questions he wanted answered....The missions he took were always so risky, the enemies were so strong. Even the client benefited greatly from it. Why is it in the end, Lin Yi benefited the least?

Who knows how the old geezer managed to get all those missions for him? Up until now, Lin Yi always narrowly escaped death, but why was the reward always only fifty or a few hundred dollars? The worse part was he would be considered quite fortunate to receive just that amount. There were cases when he was awarded only pocket change for a mission. Whenever he recalled those moments, he felt the urge to cry.

When Lin Yi received the two hundred dollars, which he earned by risking his life, he felt like swearing. Screw you!!!

He learned martial arts from Gramps Lin, who brought him up and trained him for fifteen years. Based on these skills, he should be considered a wenwuquancai (talent that is well versed in term of academic and military skills). If he was born in ancient times and took the imperial examination, he could already be one of the top examinees for both the civil and military examinations. So why is he being ordered around like a part time worker?!......This is just too cruel...AHHH!!!!

It was rumored that even construction workers in the city earned at least 10k dollars annually ....He haf been worked to the bone every day and only earned 1.8 annually.

"Gramps, is this a joke??? 200 dollars?? I'm really starting to suspect that you're deducting my pay," Lin Yi complained. This was not the first time Lin Yi suspected this. But Gramps didn't look like he was rich since both of them lived the same life style.

"You should be glad that you received some money. Did you think that money can be easily earned??" Gramps Lin rolled his eyes and said in an annoyed tone. "So? Do you want it? You can return it to me if you don't. It has been a long time since I had a sumptuous meal at the village's shop."

"........" Lin Yi felt like giving this scrawny old man a beating. But he knew that it would just be a one sided beating from the old man.

No one knew exactly how strong Gramps Lin was, not even Lin Yi. During all their sparring sessions, Gramps Lin always held back. Even when there were great improvements in Lin Yi's martial arts, Gramps would raise his own skills accordingly. Lin Yi always lost to Gramps.

"Alright, you've already gained enough experience in these past few years. It's about time that it's settled." Without even opening his eyes, Gramps sat down on the stone bed and started crunching on a plate of nuts. "If you're able to complete this mission, you will not have to worry about money for the rest of your life!!!"

"Is that the truth?" It was known that ever since Lin Yi was adopted at the age of three, everything that he was taught - martial arts, medical skills and other knowledge - was to prepare him for an important mission. So Lin Yi had not doubt about the existence of the mission. He only had doubts about the reward that was stated by Gramps. A reward that can make one person rich is too good to be true.
