Iâm So Angry!
"Are you looking for me?" Lin Yiâs voice came from behind Yu Xiaoke.
Yu Xiaoke jumped and trembled. The hairs on her back stood up. How did this person appear behind her without a sound?
"You- How did you get there?" Yu Xiaoke turned around and stared at Lin Yi cautiously. Was this person a ghost?
"You are asking if Iâm human or not?" Lin Yi asked her.
"I... You..." Yu Xiaoke glared at Lin Yi without knowing what to say.
"You want to tail someone with this level of skill? Go home and rest. This world is dangerous, and itâs unbelievable that someone like you lived until now," Lin Yi looked at Yu Xiaoke pitifully. He was a rather upright person.
"You are unbelievable!" Yu Xiaoke looked at Lin Yi angrily, "Oi, are you a person of the same profession?"
Yu Xiaoke thought that perhaps Lin Yi was one like her. Otherwise, how was he so skilled in the art of stealing. How was he able to appear and disappear so unpredictably?
"Heh... If you practice a few more years, perhaps you can be the same kind as me," Lin Yi laughed.
"If you are as great as what you think, then accept my challenge!" Yu Xiaoke attempted to goad him, "Oi, are you scared that you will lose and thatâs why you wonât accept my challenge?"
"If you say so," Lin Yi shrugged, "Stop following me. You wonât be able to keep up."
"I..." There was nothing Yu Xiaoke could do. What could she do against someone whoâs unmoved by force or persuasion? She clenched her teeth and she was unwilling to give up, "Then can you give me back my wallet?"
"Oh, sure. Itâs useless to me," Lin Yi agreed without hesitation.
Yu Xiaoke was extremely delighted, and as she was about to thank him, she saw her big wallet flying towards her and she quickly caught it. However, she was shocked at the sight in front of her. Her wallet was empty. The ten thousand yuan were all gone without a single cent behind.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Oi, whereâs my money?" Yu Xiaoke felt as if she had been tricked.
"You said you wanted your wallet back, not your money?" Lin Yi laughed and walked away quickly, "Remember what I said. Go back and practice a few more years before coming out, or youâll be caught sooner or later. Itâs hard for me to comprehend if you are so compassionate, why did you steal my wallet when you scolded me? I donât like the way you commit crimes."
"Argh! Iâm so angry!" Yu Xiaoke stomped her feet furiously. She wanted to kick Lin Yi into pieces as she watched Lin Yi leave, "Die! Arenât you great? Who told you that you could humiliate me! Iâm going to make you... Ahhhhh! My foot..."
Yu Xiaoke stepped on a small stone and almost fractured the sole of her foot.
Lin Yi turned at the corner and returned to the hospital. The beggar was still begging there and avoided Lin Yiâs eyes when he saw him. However, Lin Yi didnât want to do anything to the beggar either since he had nothing much to do with him.
Lin Yi saw Tang Yin at the nurseâs office upstairs. Xiaofen and Guan Xin just came back from her check up. When Guan Xin saw Lin Yi entering, she blushed lightly. She wished to say something, but held back since Tang Yin was present.
On the contrary, Lin Yi took the initiative to greet Guan Xin, "Xinxin, is Xiaofen alright now?"
Lin Yi could see that Xiaofen was more lively. Her illness was caused by secrets in her heart. Now that her heart was lightened, the problem wasnât so severe anymore.
"Itâs alright now. The doctor said thereâs no need to come back if she doesnât fall ill again," Guan Xin shook her head.
"Sorry to bother you," Lin Yi nodded, "I saw Grandpa Guan today, but I was in a rush. Iâll visit another day."
"Okay!" Guan Xin nodded. She was about to say she will cook for Lin Yi, but as Tang Yin was there. She didnât want her to misunderstand. Guan Xin hesitated for a while before suggesting, "Tang Yin, do you want to come along? Iâll cook for you guys?"
"I wonât go... Iâm quite busy. My house is gone, and I donât know what to do yet," Tang Yin was too embarrassed to go. It seemed like she didnât believe in Lin Yi. Did she seem too small-minded? Tang Yin spoke, "But I troubled you quite a lot with Xiaofen and my father, I should be treating you. When I figure something out about my new house, shall I make barbeque for you?"
"Okay!" Guan Xin agreed with a smile.
As they spoke, someone called for Guan Xin at the door and she went to work first. Lin Yi and Tang Yin went to Tang Juchengâs wardroom. Kang Xiaobo and Xiaofen left a step early with Liu Xinwen. They knew that Tang Yinâs family wanted to talk to Lin Yi about their house, and it was inappropriate for them to participate.
"Uncle Tang, how are you feeling?" Lin Yi saw that Tang Jucheng could already walk with the help of a walking stick. He recovered rather quickly.
"Not bad! Itâs much better than the recovery period after the last surgery. The Chinese medicine you gave me is quite useful. Even the doctors here and shocked!" Tang Jucheng smiled, "But they asked me for the recipe. I didnât give it to them. I told them I bought it with all the herbs ready, and I donât have the recipe."
Lin Yi nodded. It looked like Tang Jucheng wasnât an inflexible person but rather clever. He knew that the compounds of the medicine were valuable and it shouldnât be given away so easily. This kind of medicine which helps in bone growth could be mass produced and could bring them a considerable amount of profit.
"Donât give them the compounds of the medicine. If someone else asks again, tell them that it was from Guan Xueming, Professor Guan, and they wonât ask further." Lin Yi found a shield for Tang Jucheng. In the medical system, Guan Xuemingâs prestige was irreplaceable. "Oh, right, Uncle Tang, Aunt Wang, I heard from Tang Yin that you two were looking for me?"
"Yes. I thought that we should discuss about purchasing a new house? We canât always live in the hospital like this. The hospitalisation fee per day is even more expensive than hotels. Itâs not a good deal!" Although Tang Yinâs mother didnât have to pay for it, she pitied the loss of money. How nice would it be if Lin Yi gave her those money!
"Thatâs true. The hospital isnât as comfortable as home," Lin Yi nodded. He neglected this point earlier since he didnât have a fixed residence, and he was used to wandering around. Tang Yinâs family was different. They were just ordinary citizens, and it was uncomfortable to live without a home!
"Yes. Now that I can walk, I want to find something to do. Iâm sick of lying in bed all the time!" Tang Jucheng agreed, "But I need a place to settle down before finding a job. I canât live in the hospital while job hunting!"
