Beauty and the Bodyguard

Yu Xiaoke’s Admirer

It was obvious that Ken overheard the talk between Lin Yi and the dean of the orphanage. Lin Yi was surprised. This child dared to disobey the dean’s words and eavesdropped on them?

It wasn’t because Lin Yi wasn’t on guard but because there was nothing he needed to hide in his conversation with the dean, so he didn’t bother to prevent others from eavesdropping on them. Not to mention that there were no strangers around the orphanage, Lin Yi decided to relax.

“You know about Xiaoke’s situation?” Lin Yi looked at Ken in surprise.

“Yes… I know some, but Xiaoke sis is a good person. Although she steals money, she steals from those bad guys…” Ken was the oldest child out of everyone, around fifteen years old. It was normal for him to understand it, “I… Can I ask you something?”

“What is it?” Lin Yi didn’t repel the orphans here and he didn’t mind spending a while to talk to them.

“Are you Xiaoke sis’ boyfriend?” Ken hesitated and asked shyly and in embarrassment.

Lin Yi felt strange towards the boy’s question. Why did he sound jealous and envious? His facial expressions also sold his intentions. Lin Yi was amused, “You like her?”

Ken jumped at Lin Yi’s question, and his face immediately flushed red. He clenched his fists and his breathing sped up.

He avoided eye contact with Lin Yi and didn’t spend for a long time, “All the mature boys in the orphanage admire Xiaoke sis and want her to be their future wife…”

Ken’s words indirectly answered Lin Yi’s guess. Although he didn’t admit it, it meant the same thing.

“Ha…” Lin Yi smiled and studied Ken carefully. From his height, he didn’t seem like he was fifteen. He was taller than 170cm, but his young face exposed his real age.

It was normal for him to have feelings for girls at this age. Yu Xiaoke was pretty, and all these children admired her. They chased after her as if she was an idol, and it was understandable for them to feel this way.

“Don’t tell me you do perverted things while holding her photo?” Lin Yi thought that Ken was interesting, and he couldn’t help but tease Ken.

“What? No, that’s impossible!” Ken immediately panicked and glared at Lin Yi, red-faced, “Xiaoke sis is like a goddess in our hearts! How is it possible for me to do that?!”

“Just wondering, you know. Why are you so angry?” Lin Yi laughed. It looked like Ken wasn’t lying, he probably admired her more than he liked her.

“Well, we all know that we aren’t good enough for Xiaoke sis. She’s kind and beautiful, we hope that she can find a boyfriend who can protect her and give her happiness. A boyfriend who won’t let her be so tired every single day…” Ken suddenly raised his head and looked at Lin Yi, “And we can’t do that… Can you?”

“Me?” Lin Yi was surprised and shook his head, “It’s only my second time meeting her…”

“Huh? You are not Xiaoke sis’ boyfriend?” Ken was shocked, “Then why did you save her?”

“It’s between us adults. Children shouldn’t ask…” Lin Yi didn’t know whether to cry or laugh and tried to make Ken leave, “Go back and focus on your studies. When the dean comes out, we’ll see how she’s going to scold you!”

“No! I’ll go now…” Ken was terrified as Lin Yi mentioned the dean. He grimaced at Lin Yi and returned to the red brick house.

Lin Yi shook his head. After all, Ken was still a child.

However, Ken’s words moved Lin Yi. It wasn’t a great long term plan for Yu Xiaoke to keep stealing. Could he help to bring some benefits to the orphanage?

Lin Yi didn’t like helping others that much, but he changed his attitude this time as he felt sympathetic towards those children.

…

In a not so luxurious room in People’s First Hospital, Kang Zhaoming was lying in bed with IV fluids while cursing gloomily.

He just woke up not long ago. The old man in the morgue who pushed a body out scared him and he fainted. Zhu Xiaozhang and Wang Shubing later carried him to the room.

Kang Zhaoming didn’t wake up after he was injected with some glucose and medicine, “Fuck, who’s he trying to scare with that body?”

“Master Ming, do you want Xiaozhang and I to beat that old man up for you?” Wang Shubing asked carefully.

“Fuck off! That’s useless! What can we solve by beating him? We have to compensate him if he’s injured! You moron!” Kang Zhaoming glared at Wang Shubing, “Right, where’s Guan Xin? Did she come and gave me an injection?”

“No, it was an extremely manly and fierce woman. Her chest was biggest than my butt…” Wang Shubing shook his head.

“Shit. Go and ask when Guan Xin is on shift and get her to me!” Kang Zhaoming ordered, “I can’t catch a cold for nothing! I don’t only suffer, but I also have to pay for it!”

“Who am I supposed to ask? I don’t know anyone in the hospital, it’s not like the East Sea here…” Wang Shubing sighed, “Master Ming, we don’t know anything here!”

“Do you need me to tell you that you can use money to bribe them? Ask someone who knows about bribes with money!” Kang Zhaoming scolded unhappily, “Like that damn woman you mentioned before. Give her some money and I don’t believe that she won’t tell you about it!”

“It… it’s true!” Wang Shubing nodded, “I’ll go and ask later…”

Before Wang Shubing could finish his sentence, the door to the room opened. The woman they mentioned before came in and roared, “Is the patient awake yet?”

“Yes, yes. Aunt, are you here to check?” Wang Shubing wanted to ask her questions and became extremely polite.

“What are you talking about? Who’s an aunt? I’m not even married yet!” The nurse glared at Wang Shubing and almost slapped him.

“Uh… I’m so sorry, I didn’t know you were this pretty until I came close to you!” Wang Shubing jumped and immediately changed his saying, “I have bad vision, please forgive me!”

“That’s right!” The woman glared at Wang Shubing and approached Kang Zhaoming, “Aren’t you find now? What’s wrong with youngsters these days. You are hospitalized for a small cold. You are fine. You can leave today!”
