Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1444 - Go Compete

"That's about it," Lin Yi didn't explain it much, "Remember not to pull anything funny, I'll have people keeping an eye on you."

"Got it, got it," Ziyu said helplessly.

Lin Yi nodded, not as worried now that he had seen her, "Chen Xi, I'll leave her studying to you- I'm going now."

"Okay, don't worry! Bye bye Lin Yi big bro!" Chen Xi waved her hand at Lin Yi, her face still a little red from the excitement from before.

"Good bye!" Ziyu wasn't as happy.

Lin Yi wasn't affected by that- he smiled and left the classroom speedily. Class was starting soon, and he didn't think it was good to continue staying here.

After he left, Ziyu stood up and looked outside, making sure Lin Yi had left before smiling at Chen Xi, blinking mischievously, "Xi, tell me, do you like that jerk Lin Yi?"

"Wha?!" Chen Xi jumped, eyes wide, "What... What are you saying..."

"I'm saying that you're in love with that violent jerk Lin Yi, right?" Ziyu had spent some time in society, and was naturally a bit more mature. She's seen the boy and girl stuff before, though she had never tried it herself. She did know quite a bit, and one look at that red face and she had some idea of Chen Xi's feelings.

"I... Of cousre not..." Chen Xi was feeling a bit confused- did she like him? Yes, or no? What did that even mean? Chen Xi never thought about stuff like this before, it was just that she thought Lin Yi was a nice person- not only did he heal her mom, he even helped her in a lot of ways... In her eyes, Lin Yi was a sort of idol to Chen Xi, there were positive feelings, but she never thought about whether it was romantic or not.

"See, look at you- you're blushing and stuttering already, and you call him big bro Lin Yi all the time, you sure are close with him, huh?" Ziyu smiled.

"I..." Chen Xi went into a panic, and all of a sudden she didn't know how to explain anymore- she started stuttering, "I... He... He's older than us in the first place!"

"Wow, I didn't expect this, Xi you're blossoming? Do you want this Ziyu sis to help you plan things out? I'm not as good at studying as you, but I have experience in this field!" Ziyu said pridefully, now that she finally found something she was better at than Chen Xi.

"Huh? Ziyu sis, you had a boyfriend before?" Chen Xi paused, asking.

"I... I haven't eaten pork, but I've seen pigs run before, right?" Ziyu said with a smirk, "I've seen more than you!"

"OH... But big bro Lin Yi has a girlfriend already right... And she's really pretty too..." Ziyu said, gradually getting pulled in by Ziyu's pace. She didn't even know if she liked Lin Yi in the first place, and now they were talking about romantic prospects...

"That doesn't matter, you can go fight, go compete with her!" Ziyu wa a bit irritated when she thought of that girlfriend of Lin Yi's- she was the one who made Lin Yi hit her last time! She kept that vendetta in her mind- this girl sure was immoral, why didn't she let Lin Yi hit her butt instead?

"No, I... I can't fight with Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao sis is really nice to me..." Chen Xi said with a shake of her head, "I couldn't do something like that."

"Nice? That Feng Xiaoxiao girl is a big jerk, full of jerk water in her belly! She let that violent jerk Lin Yi spank my butt!" Ziyu said, "Don't worry, with my support, I'll let you successfully pursue Lin Yi big bro!"

"Ah? I... What am I saying?" Chen Xi finally snapped out of it- remembering what she was saying, her face reddened, "Ziyu sis, I was just- just joking earlier, I don't think of him like that! Don't misunderstand..."

"Hehe, you admitted it accidentally right? It's okay, I get it!" Ziyu said.

"Class is starting... I need to pay attention..." Chen Xi saiad, still blushing as she turned away from Ziyu.

After leaving Fushan High, Lin Yi told Uncle Fu about the matter with Ziyu and Chen Xi. Uncle Fu naturally promised to take care of it- this was something that didn't require much effort, and Lin Yi had been a shareholder of Pengzhan Industries too.

Thinking that he was mostly done with all the matters he had left, Lin Yi took in a deep breath of relief. In actuality, the thing he was worried about the most regarding his departure was the Miss, Shu and Tang Yun. Lin Yi even thought about strengthening their power levels to Mystic as well, but there weren't any practitioner's arts he could find for them all of a sudden.

The Art of Dragon MAstery wasn't suitable for women, and Lin Yi didn't have any other practitioner's arts with him at the moment. The difference between humans and beasts was the fact that beasts could level up without using spiritual channeling practitioner's arts, so Lin Yi decided that he would look for something like that for the girls later. He wouldn't have to be too worried after that.

When driving back to the villa, Lin Yi remembered Lingshan and Yutian- he wondered how they were, and whether or not the deal with the graverobbers was finished. Lin Yi thought about it, and decided to give her a call before leaving. After all, the two were really good friends now, and this journey that he was leaving on would take an unpredictable amount of time. He wouldn't be able to help her crack any cases then.

He dialed her number up.

Lingshan had been thinking of calling Lin Yi as well, since she knew that Lin Yi was a doctor. Yutian had the best treatment in the hospital right now, but Lingshan felt that Lin Yi was a better doctor than any they could offer! Plus, back in the tomb, Elder Yu seemed to say something about Lin Yi's Weiwu being a healer spirit beast or something?

Lingshan didn't know if Elder Yu was saying that earnestly, because she knew the origins of that dog- it was just a dog that Lin Yi forcefully strengthened up, not much different from what happened to her or Yutian! Weiwu was no spirit beast!

And so, she wasn't too taken to the idea of Weiwu being a healer spirit beast.

Whether or not she believed that or not, however, Lingshan still felt that she should tell still Lin Yi about this. In her heart, Lin Yi was someone who was practically capable of everything- whenever she needed help with something, it would be solved as long as Lin Yi was there.

But Yutian told her not to tell Lin Yi- this really put her in a difficult spot. On one hand, she couldn't break her promise, while on the other, she felt that only Lin Yi could take care of this.

Just when she was hesitating, the phone rang.

Thinking that it was from a colleague, so she cleared her thoughts and picked it up, "Hello?"

"I'm Lin Yi," Lin Yi said, "You okay over there? I'm preparing to leave in a few days."
