Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1042 - You're Very Cute

Lin Yi went to the hospital to fetch Tang Yin, as usual. Upon entering the car, she looked at him. "Let's go to Ningshi Road and get Xiaoxiao…"

"Oh?" Lin Yi blinked.

"She said that, when she woke up, she saw that there wasn't any gas left for school, so she wanted you to fetch her…" Tang Yin said, "She just called me."

"Isnt' there a gas station in front of her house?" Lin Yi found the excuse a little funny.

"Really?" Tang Yin blinked, and laughed, "This Xiaoxiao… I should get her to make a better excuse next time…"

"You knew she was lying?" LIn Yi smiled.

"Yeah, she admitted it…" Tang Yin smiled back. "You wouldn't blame me for hiding it, right?"

"Nope," Lin Yi shook his head. With Tang Yin's personality, it was only natural she'd want to help Xiaoxiao more after learning the truth, which was why she teamed up with her to fool him.

With that, Lin Yi drove speedily to Xiaoxiao's area.

Xiaoxiao stood there under her building, dressed very nicely as she waited with a smile at her door. Her posture and that bag over her shoulder gave off a strong sense of youth.

Lin Yi would never believe that this was someone soon about to die if he didn't know firsthand just how odd her body was.

The Xiaoxiao now, smiled as usual, and excitedly ran over when she saw Lin Yi's car!

Tang Yin and Xiaoxiao sat at the back of the Beetle, and the front seat was empty.

"Heh heh, sorry, out of gas- you had to fetch me!" Xiaoxiao said a little apologetically once she got on the car.

"Oh, okay," Lin Yi nodded.

"Okay?" Xiaoxiao didn't know what Lin Yi was up to. What did he mean?

Tang YIn covered her mouth, smiling.

Xiaoxiao didn't understand.

Lin Yi drove the car to Xiaoxiao's door and turned to the alley nearby, and soon reached a gas station.

"I'm almost out of gas too, wait a second," Lin Yi said faintly, not exposing Xiaoxiao's lie at all.

But Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, was blushing intensely! She was someone who lied without blinking, but that was when she was messing with people- now it was Lin Yi she was dealing with! She wanted to bury herself in the ground!

Lin Yi didn't expose her directly, but what difference did that make? She never expected for Lin Yi to know that there was a gas station so close, since it was hidden and out of sight- only locals knew about it! Outsiders wouldn't be able to find it!

But Lin Yi did, and he was pumping gas right now!

Lin Yi walked out and got to work while Xiaoxiao heated up, her face red as she fidgeted, "Aaaah…. What do I do, Yin Yin sis, does he know I lied?"

"Haha…" Tang Yin looked at the fidgeting Xiaoxiao, "That's not a big deal right?"

"Then he wouldn't believe what I say in the future…" Xiaoxiao said, worried.

"Haha, it's okay, he guessed it already," Tang Yin smiled.

"He guessed it already?!" Xiaopxiao was even more flustered- so Lin Yi had known all along!

After finishing, Lin Yi got back in the car and drove to school, not saying anything.

But that only made Xiaoxiao even more flustered! If Lin Yi were to say something and tease her a bit, or anything at all- she'd feel more at ease.

"So there was a gas station there, I didn't even know! I'll go there for gas tonight." Xiaoxiao said, pretending, "Husband Lin Yi , you're so good at finding these hidden spots in alleys!"

"Oh, not really, I just noticed it," Lin Yi said with a smile.

"Haha, I couldn't notice it…" Xiaoxiao said with a haha.

"Oh, I only noticed it because I saw a receipt from a gas station in your car, so I memorized the address on it," Lin Yi said.

"Ha?!" Xiaoxiao's eyes were wide as she stared, her mouth gaping open as she almost hit her head on the ceiling of the car. She stared at Lin Yi, her face burning up- she was going crazy!

"AAAAAAAAH! I can't live anymore, this is so embarrassing!" Xiaoxiao was going mad, "Can't you just not expose me, can't you just let me off the hook! I… i- I'm gonna kill myself…"

"You're pretty cute," Lin Yi said with a soft smile as he looked at the rampaging Xiaoxiao.

"Oh? Really?" Xiaoxiao was instantly happy again, her eyes narrowing happily, "Really? Hahaha, Yin Yin sis, did he say I was very cute?"

"Yeah…" Tang Yin gave a smile as well, finally understanding why Mengyao agreed to let Yushu be a small wife- having someone so cute and lively like this in her life- that'd be pretty nice…

Gradually, Tang Yin realized that she had accepted Xiaoxiao! If she were to be able to spend her life with her, that'd be a pleasant thing, except… This was only a thought… Xiaoxiao's ending would be fatedly tragic…

She couldn't help but feel sad at the thought.

Xiaoxiao, as if she didn't know anything was wrong, kept giggling to herself, her eyes and lips all curved in happiness.

Lin Yi really couldn't connect this Xiaoxiao with the one who made all those wishes in her phone- she was a happy girl in front of everyone, as if she'd be happy anytime, anywhere, and cause others to be happy with her… Behind their backs, she was a fragile girl, bound to a cruel fate…

Lin Yi parked behind the food alley, and when Xiaoxiao got off and saw that messed up Lambo, she couldn't help but burst out into laughter.

She didn't want to draw too much attention at school, since a weird trio couple like this would stand out too much. Since she didn't need to fight Tang Yin for anything anymore, she might as well let Tang Yin and Lin Yi hold hands. She took Tang Yin's hand instead.
