Beauty and the Bodyguard

“Huh?” Tang Yun frowned. If Chen Yushu said she just finished or she was just going to take a shower, she definitely wouldn’t believe what Chen Yushu said. However, it made Tang Yun anxious after giving such an explanation…

“Alright, I’ll stop talking. If Yaoyao sis finds out I told you so much, I’m going to die a painful death. Byebye!” Chen Yushu hung up without giving Tang Yun time to reply and roared with laughter.

“?” Tang Yun didn’t finish asking yet Chen Yushu hung up the call made her feel uncomfortable. Did Lin Yi really go shower with Chu Mengyao? Although she always thought that the relationship between Lin Yi, Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu wasn’t as simple as employer and employee. Perhaps nothing happened now, but something will definitely happen if this continued.

However, Tang Yun didn’t want to think about it. She optimistically thought that even if there was something between Lin Yi and Chu Mengyao, it would be done if she didn’t know about it. She didn’t know what kind of mindset she had towards this. Did she feel inferior or was she too scared to lose Lin Yi?

Although Feng Xiaoxiao was just joking, it was like an alarm to her. Although one didn’t need a reason to love somebody, there was no difference between financial and power status. But the ideal was always different from reality. Deep down in her heart, she even thought herself that perhaps Chu Mengyao, or Guan Xin, was the perfect match for Lin Yi…

Did she become Lin Yi’s partner by luck? She couldn’t help Lin Yi with anything. Whatever he did, she was always a bystander, and even a burden to him sometimes. As soon as this feeling formed, it planted and grew, making her began to worry about losing him.

She didn’t want to interrogate Lin Yi, nor she dared to do so. Although she was almost eighty percent sure that Chen Yushu’s words were fake, even if she knew it was fake, it still made her frustrated and worried sometimes…

Tang Yun picked up her phone and hesitated for a long time before dialing another number.

“Beep—Beep—Beep—Beep” After beeping for a long time, no one picked up.

Tang Yun pressed the end button silently and put the phone next to her bed, falling back onto her bed. She hugged a pillow and stared into the blank space on the wall…

After a while, her phone suddenly rang. It was a message.

Tang Yun was staring into space alone and the message’s tone made her jump. She picked up and it was from Chu Mengyao.

“I was just showering. Do you need anything?”

Tang Yun was shocked. Chu Mengyao was really showering? She felt her heart shattering into pieces at this moment, aching.

But soon, she wondered, if Chu Mengyao was showering with Lin Yi together, why would she tell her? Wouldn’t it be better to hide it from her? However, she couldn’t see Chu Mengyao’s expressions and she didn’t know if Chu Mengyao sent her this message to protest.

The message sounded indifferent without any emotions in it, just like how Miss usually acted.

Tang Yun wanted to call to check, but she didn’t dare to. She prayed that it wasn’t true, but she was afraid that a call would turn her assumption into reality… But if she didn’t call, she didn’t feel secure either.

After hesitating for a long time, Tang Yun eventually sighed gloomily. She put her phone to one side and covered her head with a blanket. Without knowing why tears rolled down her cheeks…

Chu Mengyao texted Tang Yun but didn’t receive a reply for a while. She found it strange and called Tang Yun back as their relationship wasn’t too intense.

The call notified her that the caller had turned off the phone, Chu Mengyao shook her head. Perhaps Tang Yun’s phone ran out of battery, perhaps she called the wrong number. Chu Mengyao didn’t pay further attention to it as she put the phone on the side and wiped her hair with a towel…

Tang Yun and Lin Yi didn’t talk that night. Lin Yi realized that he left his phone in the living room the next morning. He looked at the missed call but didn’t mind it and went to make breakfast for Miss and Chen Yushu.

It was still Uncle Fu who came to pick up Miss and Chen Yushu for school, Lin Yi drove Chen Yushu’s Beatles to pick up Tang Yun at the hospital.

Tang Yun stood in front of the hospital nervously. She didn’t know if Lin Yi will come and pick up like usual, she didn’t know if she would ask Lin Yi about last night. Hence, she didn’t even eat breakfast and spent the morning feeling anxious.

However, all the unhappiness disappeared the moment she saw Lin Yi. She also smiled when she saw Lin Yi’s smile.

He still loved her, why didn’t she believe him? Why did she have to worry about the things that may happen? Tang Yun shook her head and ran towards Lin Yi with her bag.

“Why are your eyes red? Did you not sleep well?” Lin Yi opened the door for Tang Yun and looked at her strangely. Lin Yi’s side job was a doctor and he was good at observing others.

“Hmm… I was trying to kill a mosquito in the middle of the night…” Tang Yun lied. She couldn’t tell Lin Yi that she cried until the middle of the night, could she? That was too embarrassing.

“Hah…” Although Lin Yi believed Tang Yun was lying, he didn’t continue to question her if she didn’t want to say it, “What do you want to eat?”

“Huh?” Tang Yun heard Lin Yi’s words and asked, “Eating?”

“Breakfast, don’t you want breakfast?” Lin Yi smiled.

“I did…” Tang Yun wanted to say that she already ate, but she asked strange under Lin Yi’s half-smile, “How do you know that I haven’t eaten yet?”

Since Lin Yi said so, he must’ve had his reason. Tang Yun didn’t deny it as Lin Yi don’t ask her this usually and they go to school after picking her up.

“I’m a doctor, I can see through your body,” Lin Yi replied.

“Huh? You can see through it?” Tang Yun looked at Lin Yi’s eyes and blushed while asking subconsciously.

“Not that,” Lin Yi shook his head, “It’s just an example. I can tell that you didn’t have breakfast from your complexion, it is the ‘looking’ you hear in the four diagnostic methods; looking, listening, asking and feeling the pulse.”

“Oh…” Tang Yun thought that Lin Yi could see through her body and it made her jump. Although she will have to show him sooner or later, it felt weird that others could see through her body.

“Let’s go and eat something first,” Lin Yi started the engine and began to search for breakfast stalls on the street.

“I don’t think we should. We’ll be late for school…” Tang Yun was worried.

“Wang Zhifeng is working for me, why are you worried?” Lin Yi laughed.

No One Picked Up

“…” Tang Yun was speechless, but immediately thought of something, “Oh right, why does Director Wang look like he’s scared of you?”

It was something Tang Yun couldn’t figure out why. She thought that Lin Yi was a young master of a wealthy family so Wang Zhifeng didn’t dare to offend him. But as Lin Yi’s mysterious identity was unraveled. He was merely Chu Mengyao’s bodyguard, so why was Wang Zhifeng scared of him?

Wang Zhifeng didn’t even give Zhong Pingliang, the ex-principal’s nephew much face.

“Ha… He was picking up on girls in school and I caught him doing that,” Lin Yi didn’t hide it.

“Huh?” Tang Yun widened her eyes, “Picking up on girls? Him? In school?”

“I think it’s his mistress? A teacher in the school,” Lin Yi shrugged, “I just happened to bump into him and now he feels guilty…”

“Ah, is that so…” Tang Yun didn’t know what to say. So because of this, Lin Yi dared to pick up on her fearlessly in school… Should she thank Wang Zhifeng? If Lin Yi didn’t bump him into doing that, would Lin Yi still be as fearless as he was?

“Let’s go eat first,” Lin Yi parked the car on the side of the road next to a breakfast shop and took her there.

“Yaoyao sis, I think we ran out of red ink at school. Should we get a new bottle?” Chen Yushu suddenly remembered something and said.

“Oh? Get one then,” Chu Mengyao nodded and turned to Uncle Fu, “Uncle Fu, please stop by a stationery shop if there is any. We want to buy a bottle of red ink.”

“Okay, Miss Chu!” Uncle Fu nodded.

There were many tests in the last year of high school, a big exam every three days and a small exam every day. But the majority of these exam papers were marked by students because the teacher didn’t have that much time to mark the papers. After collecting the papers, the teacher mixed them up and handed down, the teacher only gave the explanations to the answers.

Before, Lin Yi marked Chu Mengyao’s papers, but at that time, the two of them weren’t so familiar with each other yet.

Hence, red pen ink was the most important thing to them in the last year of high school. When Chen Yushu said it ran out, Chu Mengyao naturally had to buy a new bottle.

Uncle Fu parked the car in front of a stationary shop, Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu went to buy the ink. As soon as they came back and got into the car and Uncle Fu was starting the engine, two black Land Rovers stopped in front and behind the Bentley they were in, not allowing them to move.

Uncle Fu was surprised and immediately became alarmed. These two cars did so on purpose, or no one would ever park like this!

“Be careful, Miss Chu! Hurry, contact Mr. Lin!” Years of experience made Uncle Fu sense danger.

As expected, the doors to the Land Rovers immediately opened as soon as they stopped. A tall man in white got off from the first car and two men in black got off from the second car. They all had their right hand on their belt and stood next to the two back doors of the Bentley.

Uncle Fu locked the door and took a deep breath. Although the two men in black weren’t threatening, the man in white made him feel a sense of pressure that he never felt before!

However, the man in white didn’t put the locked door in his eyes. He grabbed the handle on the door and with a loud bang, he pulled the door off from the body of the car. Bentley’s doors were especially sturdy, especially this one as Chu Pengzhan ordered it to be bulletproof. However, they didn’t expect it to be broken so easily in the hands of the man in white.

Uncle Fu’s eyes became sharp. As expected, these people weren’t the kind type. They must be cultivators above the middle stage of the golden division…

Uncle Fu couldn’t sit in the car anymore after the door was destroyed. To an enemy of a high division, sitting in the car was no different than waiting for death. This person gave him an exceptionally great threat and he couldn’t even protect Chu Mengyao even if he wanted to!

Uncle Fu had no choice but to get out of the car, hoping that he could drag it long enough for Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu to call Lin Yi. But the man in white already opened the front door, the two men in black easily unlock the back doors. They opened those doors and took out two black guns from behind their waist and pointed one at both girls.

“Give me your phones!” The man in black looked at Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu and ordered coldly.

“Oh…” Chen Yushu obediently took out her phone as she didn’t want to be harmed. The two of them looked fierce, Chen Yushu knew that it wasn’t a joke and didn’t speak.

Chu Mengyao was just about to call Lin Yi but now it looked like they won’t let her. She gave her phone to the men but dialed the number without hanging it up.

The man took Chu Mengyao’s phone and quickly hung up after glancing at it. He turned it off and glanced at Chu Mengyao coldly, “Don’t try to play tricks! Get off the car and go to the car behind this one!”

Lin Yi received Chu Mengyao’s call when he was eating with Tang Yun. The call only lasted for a few seconds and ended before Lin Yi could pick up. It surprised Lin Yi and when he called back, the phone was turned off.

Was her phone out of battery? Lin Yi didn’t overthink it. After all, Uncle Fu drove Chu Mengyao to school every day.

“What’s wrong?” Tang Yun asked when she saw Lin Yi make the call.

“Nothing. Miss just called but hung up after a few seconds. I called back but it’s turn off…” Lin Yi shrugged, “It might be out of battery.”

“Oh…” Tang Yun pouted when she heard that the call was from Miss. She stopped talking and felt upset.

“What’s wrong?” Lin Yi saw that Tang Yun looked upset and asked.

“Nothing…” Tang Yun shook her head, “Did something happen to her? Why don’t you call Chen Yushu?”

Lin Yi pondered for a while and agreed. He could call Chen Yushu if the call to Chu Mengyao didn’t go through. He called Chen Yushu but her phone was also turned off! Lin Yi frowned and realized that something was wrong!

It was possible that Chu Mengyao’s phone ran out of battery, but it’s impossible that both of their phones ran out of battery at the same time! From their mansion to school, there were no areas with bad reception so it couldn’t be caused by that!

Lin Yi immediately became anxious as he thought of this. He quickly dialed Uncle Fu’s number but after it went through, no one picked up…
