Chapter 432 - Little Bodyguard
Beauty and the Bodyguard
âAh? Youâre Professor Guanâs granddaughter! Thatâs perfect, do you know Miracle Doctor Lin Yiâs phone number? Iâm looking for himâ¦â Fatty Lai started crying again. âMy dad has uremia, and heâs dying⦠Miracle Doctor Linâs able to cure him, but Professor Guan wouldnât give me his phone number.â
âYouâre looking for Lin Yi?â Guan Xin blinked. One look at that sad face and she decided to help him. âMaybe I can tell you. If he scolds you then tell him Iâm the one who gave the numberâ¦â
Guan Xin had a kind heart- she couldnât bear seeing this fatty crying as he knelt in front of their door.
âThank you, thank you! Miss Guan, you have a really kind heart⦠You must be Miracle Doctor Linâs girlfriend, right?â Fatty Lai may be a crybaby, but he was still a seasoned veteran in the business world- he had very extraordinary observation ability, and that unconscious blush on Guan Xinâs face when he mentioned Lin Yi told him that their relationship should be a little special.
So that was why Lin Yi and Xuemin were so close- it was because of her! Fatty Lai had wondered why Lin Yi wanted to start a medicine company with Xuemin before, not understanding how he trusted Xuemin so much when he was much more of a miracle doctor than the professor was!
So there was another factor at play here!
âN-No⦠Weâre just⦠good friendsâ¦â Guan Xin stuttered a little from the embarrassment Fatty Lai was causing her- despite the blush she was actually really happy to hear what he said. The fatty may be a crybaby, but he sure spoke sweetly⦠She didnât give him Lin Yiâs number for nothing.
âHaha, Iâll leave you then, Miss Guan! Iâll go make the phone call!â Fatty Lai wanted to be associated with Lin Yi as soon as possible.
Guan Xin was getting pretty embarrassed, so she was relieved that Fatty Lai was saying goodbye as she ran into the villa.
Lin Yi remembered that Tang Yin would be at the tree-planting event tomorrow after reaching home- he wondered if she had a sapling already. He took his phone out to make a call when it rang all of a sudden- he thought it was Tang Yin, but it turned out to be an unknown number.
âHello?â Lin Yi picked it up.
âIs this Miracle Doctor Lin?â Fatty Lai said happily.
âMiracle Doctor Lin? Who are you?â Lin Yi paused.
The phone calls he received recently were all weird- there was one looking for Grand Thief Lin, and now another looking for Miracle Doctor Linâ¦
âMiracle Doctor Lin, it really is you! Iâm Lai Changyi!â Fatty Lai introduced quickly.
âLai Changyi? I donât know you!â Lin Yi said as he prepared to hang up.
âWaah⦠M⦠Miracle Doctor Lin, you donât remember me anymore? Waah⦠Waahâ¦â Fatty Lai started crying again.
âI remember!â Lin Yi recognized the crying right away. âYouâre that crybaby fatty, arenât you?â
âYes, yes! Thatâs me, Miracle Doctor Lin! Do you remember?â Fatty Lai was surprised and joyed.
âI do. What do you need?â Lin Yi asked.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAlright, so the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing is really effective! Iâm just calling to make sure I pay you the medical fees- would you like it transferred?â Fatty Lai asked.
âOh, that. Itâs okay, I said Iâd give it to you.â Lin Yi rejected Fatty Laiâs intentions. One hundred million was a huge sum, and he himself needed the money, but this was a pill that had been stained with dog shit, a pill that Zhaoming threw away⦠Lin Yi couldnât really accept payment for something like that.
âThat wonât do! You need to accept the money, else itâll be hard on my conscience⦠Waah... â Fatty Lai started crying once more.
âHuh??â Lin Yi was speechless. âWhatâs wrong with saving you money?â
âWhat about this then! Miracle Doctor Lin, youâre starting a medicine company, arenât you? What do you think of an office as a gift? Iâve just had a skyscraper built, Iâm planning on moving the company Iâm in charge of in there but I donât need that much space, a couple floors will do. I wanted to rent the rest of the place out but how about I just give it to you?â Fatty Lai asked.
âIf you really want to, then alright.â Lin Yi didnât reject the offer after hearing it was somewhere for his office- itâd save him the trouble to locate and buy one.
âAlright, Iâll write your name on the deed?â Fatty Lai said happily now that Lin Yi had said yes.
âWrite Grandpa Guanâsâ¦â Lin Yi wanted to give Fatty Lai Xueminâs name when he thought about it- Xuemin probably wouldnât agree to this. âActually, no- write Guan Xinâs.â
âAlright, I got it.â Fatty Lai nodded quickly. Lin Yi sure had a deep relationship going on with Guan Xin- his guess was most likely correct.
âIs there anything else?â Lin Yi was waiting to give Tang Yin a phone call, and wasnât in the mood for all this.
âUm⦠About that Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing⦠Is it okay if you sell me another oneâ¦â Fatty Lai asked, revealing his intention.
âOh. Well, your old man wonât be dying for a while.â Lin Yi said. âAfter a couple days, if everything with the company starts successfully Iâll auction some of those pills. You can go buy it then.â
âOkay, okay! As long as youâre selling it!â Fatty Lai didnât lack money- he didnât mind it being an auction. âWaah⦠Iâm so happyâ¦â
Lin Yi hung up and breathed out slowly- the guy was way too naggy, he couldnât take much more of that. He shook his head and called Tang Yin.
âHello? Lin Yi? Whatâs up?â Tang Yin was just coming back from the hospital when she received the call.
âWeâre planting trees at school tomorrow- do you have your sapling?â Lin Yi asked.
âYeah, do you want one? I have a lot in the yard.â Tang Yin said. âYou can just come take a couple saplings if you want.â
âOhhâ¦â Lin Yi slapped his head- heâd forgotten that Tang Yin lived in a flat house in the slums, so there was a yard with tons of wild saplings there. âNo, I was just thinking that Iâd buy you some if you didnât have anyâ¦â
âItâs alright, hahaâ¦â Tang Yin was evidently really happy to hear that, all warm and fuzzy and sweet for Lin Yi. Sheâd finally realized what love was like- it was a very pleasant experience⦠Sheâd always pushed stuff like that aside, but now that she really did fall in love it couldnât be stopped at allâ¦
âAlright, see you tomorrow.â They chatted for a bit until Mrs. Tang called Tang Yin over for dinner.
In the Floating Cloud Bar was An Jianwen, his face solemn and dark as he sat beside Li Cihua. âYou need to help me this time, Cihua Bro- send some powerful people to teach that kid a lesson! He really messed me and Taizao up this time!!â
Cihua Bro sighed, but didnât say anything in response.
âCihua Bro, the master of the Firewolves is with my older brother right now, and there arenât any new masters yet, you know this- I wouldn't be asking for this favor otherwise!â Jianwen started panicking a little at Cihuaâs silence.
âMasters⦠What level are they?â Cihua finally spoke after sighing again.
âEarly phase golden stage! He was supposed to be by my side, but my brother has no class- he took him away!â Jianwenâs eyes were full of toxicity. âIf he hadnât done that I wouldnât be here enduring this humiliation from some little bodyguard!â
