Antonio's request was really excessive. Gao Guang was also a newcomer, how could he go to Renato to plead on his behalf?
If it were John, the answer would certainly be two words, no way. If it were Mike, it would definitely be a direct refusal. The dictionary of Americans simply does not contain the phrase 'beat around the bush'. But Gao Guang was different.
With such high emotional intelligence, good at being personable, and influenced by Huaxia culture, even when he refused, he would make sure that Antonio took it easily.
First came a soft sigh, then Gao Guang placed his hand on Antonio's shoulder and leaned in close to his ear, lowering his voice in all seriousness, "Bro, the boss values you so much, this isn't good, right?"
Antonio was taken aback for a moment and said, "Value me? Impossible."
With a look of helplessness, Gao Guang shook his head and said softly, "If he didn't value you, would he let you become his bodyguard?"
