Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1211 – You Know Something, Don’t You?

 Time passed, and the pale look on Xiaoxiao’s face started regaining color, much to Lin Yi’s relief. It seemed that Xiaoxiao would be alright now!

 Tianlong and Tang Yun had been watching the change Xiaoxiao was going through, too. The two breathed out in relief.

 A while later, Xiaoxiao opened her eyes to the sight of Lin Yi’s bleeding finger! She jumped up and shrieked, thinking that she was still in a nightmare, “Ah!!!”

 “Xiaoxiao, you’re awake?” Lin Yi then pulled his finger back and channeled the Art of Dragon Mastery, fixing the wound- Except that there wasn’t any energy in his body anymore, he couldn’t fix it.

 In Yi smiled bitterly, and took out a bottle of injury medicine to apply it. He’d forgotten that he gave all his qi to Xiaoxiao.

 “Lin Yi honey?” Xiaoxiao saw that it was Lin Yi now- but why was he dripping blood onto her head?

 “Xiaoxiao, you’re really awake- you’re really awake!” Tianlong quickly walked over to Xiaoxiao’s bed, looking at her.

 “Ah… Dad, why’re you here too?” Xiaoxiao blushed- did she call Lin Yi ‘honey’ in front of her dad?

 “Xiaoxiao, you fainted just now, don’t you know?” Tianlong didn’t have time to care about what Xiaoxiao called Lin Yi at this point, although he didn’t mind if she did. From his perspective, this son-in-law was a very good one, he was really pleased with him! He’d be happy if the two were together.

 “I… Fainted, I think so…” Xiaoxiao remembered, “I felt uncomfortable in my chest, and I lay on bed, and it got worse, and I seemed to have fallen asleep…”

 “Xiaoxiao, you almost died! Yi saved you!” Tianlong sighed in relief. He didn’t know when she would faint and be close to dying again, but now she was alive and well, and that was always better!

 “Ah!” Xiaoxiao recalled that Lin Yi had been dangling his bleeding finger in front of her face- was that him curing her? She thought about it- it was possible, she woke up into a bed of blood that time in Yanjing, she even thought that LIn Yi had violated her! Thinking that he was using blood to save her, Xiaoxiao was really grateful, “Thank you, Lin Yi honey!”

 “No need to thank me,” Lin yi smiled faintly, “You said it yourself, I’m your honey, why would you thank me?”

 “Hehe, you’re right!” Xiaoxiao was back to her usual self again.

 Tang Yun let out a long sigh, looking at Lin Yi, “Lin Yi, are you alright?”

 “I’m fine, just need to rest a bit,” Lin Yi did look quite weak right now- in truth, he was. He lost all his qi, and he’d bled a bunch. Of course he’d look weak.

 But he was really glad that he found a way to maintain her life- if his qi didn’t work, his blood did! He could just wake her up again!

 But thinking about it, it hadn’t been that long since the auction, and Xiaoxiao’s sickness acted up again. Lin Yi wasn’t very optimistic about this- when will the sickness act up again, and would his blood work at that point?

 This time, it took quite a bit more of blood. The last time it was an unintentional scrape, and it worked right away- this time, it took far more!

 Other than fatigue, Lin Yi seemed fine. Tang Yun nodded.

 “Yun Yun, you be with Xiaoxiao for a bit, I’ll go sleep and rest up, it’s getting heavy.” Lin Yi felt that his eyelids were fighting against him. His adrenaline and care for Xiaoxiao kept him going, but he was completely starting to relax now.

 “Lin Yi honey, use my bed! I only have this one bed here. I’m fine now!” Xiaoxiao sat up from her bed.

 Looking at that energetic face of hers, Lin Yi nodded, not rejecting her. It was fine now, and so he fell onto the bed, entering the jade space enthusiastically.

 Tang Yun, Tianlong, and Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, quietly left the room, closing the door for him…

 “Xiaoxiao, you really gave us a fright this time!” Tang Yun patted her chest as she looked at the energetic, usual, Xiaoxiao.

 “Hehe, Yun Yun sis, were you really worried? If I died no one would be here to try and take away your Lin Yi honey!” Xiaoxiao grinned.

 Tang Yun blushed and cleared her throat, but turned solemn right after, “Xiaoxiao, what are you thinking? I treat you as a real friend now, a real sister! If anything happened to you, I’d be really sad! If possible, I wished that you’d continue being healthy and fine…”

 “Really?” Xiaoxiao was very happy to hear that- Tang Yun was nice to her, and never bullied her because she was the small wife, always treating her well… Maybe she was the best big wife of the whole world?

 “Yeah, really!” Tang Yun said from the bottom of her heart.

 “Hahaha, I’m so happy!” Xiaoxiao was in a great mood, but something popped into her mind, and her face changed, “Yun Yun sis, you know something, don’t you?”

 Those words that Tang Yun said- the sensitive Xiaoxiao picked up on it! Tang Yun said that, if possible, she wanted her to be healthy and fine forever… What was with the ‘possible?’ Did she know that she didn’t have much time left?

 Lin Yi paused- she didn’t think that Xiaoxiao was this sensitive, even noticing the problem with her words just like that! Tang Yun didn’t know what to say- if she said she’d known from earlier, wouldn’t she think that they had been pitying her?

 She didn’t know what to say.

 “It was me- I told them everything just now!” Tianlong spoke up, “Xiaoxiao, you really gave me a heart attack- I thought you were going to leave us for good, and so… I told them everything!”
