Beauty and the Bodyguard

"Don't worry, I'm not as shameless as this old man. It's not his lottery ticket, but he still extorted 5000 Yuan from me, and he still looks like he's at a loss!" The buzzcut guy cursed in disdain, put away the 5000 Yuan, and left.

"You little hooligan, who are you calling shameless! You better explain it clearly!" The old man also quickly kept the money, picked up the load, and chased after him while cursing.

The two disappeared into the alley in a matter of minutes, leaving Lin Yi alone in the alley.

"Hehe, this is really interesting. Last time I just left the mountain, I was deceived. Today, I'm still deceived after returning to the secular world. The deception is the same. Do I look like a fool?" Lin Yi shook his head and chuckled.

He'd be an idiot if he couldn't see through such an obvious scam-it was the same as the one he saw on the train back then, the only difference being Xinyan's warning. How could Lin Yi fall for it now that she was on Sky Class Island?

It was obvious that these two were professional scammers from their acting. They saw the ten thousand in Lin Yi's hand, so they set their eyes on him and put on this show.

The two of them were probably still very proud, secretly happy that they had met a fool who could be easily fooled. However, they would know who the fool was soon.

Lin Yi threw the ten third prize lottery tickets into the trash, and a stack of money suddenly appeared in his hand. He had his own ten thousand, and the two men's money as well, making it a total of thirty thousand. He'd been worried about not having enough money to spend before, but now it was enough.

He felt like things were the same, but the people had changed-after what happened, he felt that the common world hadn't changed at all!

Lin Yi put the money away and walked towards the downtown area. To him, the most important thing right now was to find a real estate agent to rent a house and recover his strength as soon as possible.

He hadn't even taken two steps when five people suddenly squeezed their way through the alley. Lin Yi thought that the two of them had realized something was wrong and came back to get even with him, but after a closer look, he realized that it wasn't them at all. It was five gangsters.

The leader was a guy with dyed red hair. He brought a group of people and blocked the way. This alley was a dead end, and the only exit was blocked. Lin Yi couldn't escape even if he wanted to. Of course, this was only a group of hooligans, not the two Foundation Stage experts, so he didn't need to run.

"Kid, I've been a little tight on cash recently. Can I borrow a few dollars from you?" The red-haired guy walked over with big strides. His four underlings were all in their striking poses, acting cool.

"Borrow money?" Lin Yi raised an eyebrow, a half-smile on his face.

"Yes, just borrow money. It doesn't need much. Just borrow ten or twenty thousand. As for how much, it depends on you." The redhead held a cigarette in his mouth and blew out a ring of smoke in a self-satisfied manner.

"Then I'll have to ask clearly. Are you the only one who wants to borrow money, or do the Four Heavenly Kings behind you want to borrow money as well?" Lin Yi said faintly.

"Four great Heavenly Kings?" Red fur turned around and looked at his underlings who were acting cool. His face instantly darkened. These four idiots were holding an umbrella, a fruit knife, and a guitar. The most outrageous thing was that one of them had a pet golden python. Weren't they the Four Heavenly Kings?

The four lackeys didn't realize it at all-they were getting even more excited at Lin Yi's words, as if they enjoyed the title of four kings.

"Yeah, the Four Heavenly Kings also want to borrow money. Kid, you decide." Red fur suppressed the urge to turn around and hit Lin Yi as he looked at him with a dark face.

"You're already one of the Four Heavenly Kings, yet you still need to borrow money?" Lin Yi chuckled and spread his hands,"What a pity. I don't have a single cent on me. Why don't you search me?"

"No money? How come I saw you holding a stack of money on the street just now? kid, we're giving you face by asking you to lend us money. You have to be sensible, understand?" The red-haired man said with an unfriendly expression.

"I did have some money, but those two scammers took it away. I don't have a single cent left on me." Lin Yi said, shaking his head.

The red-haired man still didn't believe it, but the king with the Golden python behind him believed it. He came up and said,""Red hair, this kid might be telling the truth. I've seen those two people before. They're liars who specialize in scamming people in the countryside. They've recently come to the county. This kid might have been scammed clean by them."

"Why didn't you say so earlier?" The redhead was furious. If he knew this would happen, he would have brought his men to stop the two scammers. There was no risk at all, and he could earn a lot of money.

"Red fur bro, you didn't ask me ..." The Golden python King looked like he was wronged.

"Do I even need to ask this kind of thing? Would it kill you to be a little smarter!" The red-haired thug wanted to kick this stupid underling to death. It was too late to chase after the two scammers now. Since they had succeeded, they must have disappeared immediately to avoid being caught by this spendthrift in front of him.

"Now you believe me?" Lin Yi interjected with a half-smile.

Red fur had believed him already, but the look on Lin Yi's face made him suspicious again. He pointed at the Heavenly King Python,"Go and search him. He might have more on him!"

"Ah?" The Golden python King was stunned. Red fur glared at him and he walked over unwillingly. He reached into Lin Yi's pocket and his face changed immediately. He didn't even dare to look at Lin Yi. He turned around and stammered,"No... I didn't ..."

"No? Did you F * cking search carefully? if he still had money on him, he would have hidden it very well. What's the use of you randomly searching like this?" The red-haired guy scolded.

"That's not it. I mean, he doesn't have a pocket ..." The Golden python King was on the verge of tears.

"Bullshit! Those two pockets aren't pockets!" The red-haired guy wanted to kick him.

"But ... But I can't touch him ... It's empty ..." The Golden python King didn't dare to stand next to Lin Yi anymore. It ran behind red fur and the others as if it had seen a ghost.

The redhead and the others didn't understand and were stunned for a long time before they scolded,"What nonsense are you talking about? useless trash. You can't even do such a small thing. I'll do it myself!"

Red fur said as he walked to Lin Yi's side and reached into Lin Yi's pocket. Even he himself looked as if he had seen a ghost. He'd dug out nothing! Lin Yi was standing there, but he didn't touch anything. (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
