Chapter 389 - Dont Forget About the Recording
Beauty and the Bodyguard
Yushu was blushing as she contemplated when Mengyao interrupted her. âYouâre not thinking of something unhealthy again, are you?â
âNo, no!â Yushu shook her head after getting caught.
âThen whyâre you blushing?â Mengyao didnât believe her.
âI was just thinking that my old wish is kinda hard to come true⦠Hehe. But Iâve decided to make some changes to my wish!â Yushu said. âIâve decided to marry the same man Yao Yao marries- that way weâll get to live together forever!ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
â......â Mengyao sweated at the announcement, speechless. âWhy are you still thinking about that wish..?â
An annoying visitor came to the villa right before dusk.
Lin Yi didnât think that An Jianwen dude would have the guts to come up their doorstep again- did he want to get beat up again?
One look at that wide smile on his face and Lin Yi even thought that heâd lost his memories from that beating!
âLittle brother Lin! Iâm sorry for what happened last time, we had to split ways so unpleasantly! Itâs this older brotherâs fault, to be sure- Iâve been away from Songshan so long I didnât even understand the current situation! But enough about that⦠Are you free tonight? Youâre quite popular, Iâve got a couple of bros whoâd very much like to meet you! Theyâd like to have a drink with you in person.â Jianwen said as he smiled at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi looked at Jianwen oddly. Was this guy thinking of getting revenge on him because of what had happened to him last time? What an impatient fellow, thinking about stuff like that right after losing face.
Lin Yi turned to Mengyao for her input.
Naturally, Mengyao guessed that Jianwen wasnât planning on doing anything nice for Lin Yi. If the guy didnât have a medical condition he should still remember how Lin Yi had messed him up! That plaster on his forehead was proof of that.
âBig bro Jianwen, could there be something wrong with your head?â Yushu had a surprised look on her face as she faced Jianwen.
â.....â Jianwen blinked, unsure of what to say. âShu, what are you saying⦠I donât understandâ¦â
(So thereâs a lot of instances where âsweatedâ is used. If youâre confused it represents speechlessness most of the time, like in asian comics where thereâs three black lines on the side of a characterâs head when he or she is speechless at whatâs happening in a comedic situation. The author actually describes some of these situations using âsome black lines formed on Jianwenâs headâ sometimes.)
âItâs nothing, I just feel like youâre... just asking for it.â Yushu didnât care about Jianwen losing face or anything- she had no reason to respect him.
Jianwen was in quite a helpless position regarding Chen Yushu- as pissed as he was, there wasnât much he could say because of the image he had to keep in front of Mengyao, along with the fact that he couldnât afford to piss this woman off!
âLilâ sis Yao Yao, Iâm here to thank my savior today- you wouldnât mind lending me your bodyguard for a bit, right?â Jianwen smiled at Mengyao as he placed the emphasis on the word âbodyguardâ, implying to her that heâd learned of Lin Yiâs identity already.
Mengyao frowned at that- Lin Yi being hired by her dad wasnât a secret in the first place, a lot of the people in the company knew about it. She wouldnât be able to hide it from him even if she wanted to, and it was too easy for Jianwen to find out if he actually tried asking around.
She wasnât saying anything about Lin Yi now that Jianwen was pulling that secret out. âItâs nighttime- what he does isnât under my control.â
Mengyao was actually pretty frustrated because of what happened this afternoon- it was a frustration she couldnât relieve herself of. Now that Jianwen was here to cause Lin Yi trouble, Mengyao would naturally welcome it.
Although it was pretty obvious that Jianwen would get messed up again, Mengyao didnât want Lin Yi to be all peaceful and relaxed- letting him do some work might just ease her frustrations a little.
âHaha, lil bro Lin, now that your boss is giving the green light, how about it? For my sake?â Jianwen started smiling at Lin Yi again.
âFine, letâs go then!â Lin Yi nodded- Now that Mengyao had spoken he might as well just get it over with and teach this kid another lesson. Shields should have a shieldâs self awareness, after all- he couldnât just take the salary for nothing.
âThen letâs go! Follow me, Mister Lin!â Jianwen was overjoyed at Lin Yiâs âyesâ- Mengyao and Lin Yiâs guesses were right, he was indeed here today for revenge!
Lin Yiâs little trick on him last time made him quite furious- it was a frustration he couldnât vent out, especially when the Li Cihua who beat him up was a business partner! There was no way he could do anything about that rage now, other than showing Lin Yi what he was made of- the guy would think he was an easy target if he didnât!
Naturally, Jianwen couldnât just go against Lin Yi out in the open- after all, heâd come here to ask Lin Yi to dinner fresh out of Mengyaoâs villa. One had to know who the master of the dog he or she beat up was, after all. Making it too obvious would make Mengyao think he was petty, too.
Jianwenâs main idea today was to get Lin Yi back the same way, and that was to mess him up in a way Lin Yi couldnât do or say anything about!
Lin Yi stood up and walked out the villa with Jianwen when Yushu called out behind him all of a sudden. âShield Bro, record it! Donât forget to record it!â
Lin Yi nodded, a bitter smile on his face as the Jianwen in front almost tripped himself- So Lin Yi even recorded what happened last time?! That meant that Mengyao saw it too, didnât it?!
Fuck!
Itâd be such a humiliation if that was the case! So that was why Mengyaoâs eyes felt off when she was looking at that plaster on his head, it was because she knew what happened already!
That bastard Lin Yi had hell to pay! This time around the one getting humiliated would be Lin Yi, however- since Yushu wanted a recording so much he might as well fulfill that wish and get her that footage!
Jianwenâs heart relaxed a little at that thought, and a smile formed on his face, as if he didnât understand what Yushu was saying. âDonât worry, lil sis Shu! Iâll get a professional photographer to record our beer battle!â
Yushu didnât reply, but frowned instead, waiting until both Lin Yi and Jianwen were gone before turning to Mengyao. âYao Yao, doesnât An Jianwen look very confident this time?â
âWho knows? He looked confident last time.â Mengyao curled her lips- compared to Lin Yi, she found Jianwen much more irritating and hateable.
âYouâre right. Letâs hope Shield Bro surprises us this time too! Hehe, I wanna see what kind of mess An Jianwen gets into this timeâ¦â Yushu nodded.
Lin Yi had a pretty good idea what Jianwen had in store for him, judging by what he said. Beer battle⦠Did this guy want to get him drunk so he could do something to him??
But was getting him drunk even possible? Lin Yi smiled faintly to himself as he walked behind Jianwen.
âMister Lin, since weâre wasting ourselves tonight why donât you come in my car? You wouldnât be able to drive after drinking anyway, right?â Jianwen was worried LIn Yi might refrain from drinking too much if he had to drive back home- itâd mess up his plans.
âAlright then, Iâll sit in your car.â Lin Yi didnât mind- he could always get a taxi if he didnât have his car.
âAlright- I specifically got us a driver. Donât even have my own sports car today!â Jianwen was quite delighted to hear Lin Yi agree.
