Chapter 220 - Free Ride
Beauty and the Bodyguard
My brother did this chapter, heâs trying translating out! I edited the first third, but apparently Iâm really slow at editing so I left the two thirds after that for my editor.
Zou Tiandiâs face darkened at the deanâs silence. âFew would dare cross me in Songshan- youâre embarrassing me here, Mister Ma.â
âChairman Zou...â The dean was in a difficult position. Despite not having made the acquaintance of Zou Tiandi, heâd heard his name- he was quite well-known throughout Songshan... Heâd started from humble beginnings, but had managed to start a large-scale KTV business, yielding him quite a couple of connections.
âEnough with this nonsense- Iâve no intent on leaving this room, whoâs telling me otherwise?â Tiandi would never just leave the hospital room like that- The room itself wasnât the most pressing of concerns anymore, his name in Songshan was at stake here.
Heâd be made a laughing stock the next day should he comply to something like this.
Besides, he believed that logic was on his side- Zhao Guangdong had paid for the room officially, with a receipt and everything- where did these people come out of, kicking him out?
âSo youâre not moving? Iâll help you out then.â Lin Yi said, not bothering to waste his words on the man- Fen was waiting for them! With that, he walked over and grabbed Tiandi by the collar before swinging him out the door, his feeding tube still attached to him. He flew through the air and landed heavily on the sitting bench outside the room, the tube still miraculously hanging off a clothes rack behind the bench.
Lin Yi was generous enough to have let the guy fall on the bench- he couldâve thrown him under it if heâd wanted to.
Tiandi hadnât thought much of Lin Yi as he walked over with his hands raised. Who did this guy think he was? Did he have a death wish attacking a person of his caliber like that?
He was already floating five feet off the floor when he opened his mouth, finding himself on the bench outside the next instant.
The dean, on the other hand, hadnât expected Lin Yi to be doing something this violent, throwing the guy right out without even bothering with words. He smiled bitterly at the development- at the very least, however, he neednât explain himself anymore.
Guangdong was in disbelief as well- who the hell was this guy? One wrong word and he threw you straight off the ground? But Guangdong didnât have quite the guts to stand up or say anything to Lin Yi. Being the cowardly type he was, Guangdong fled the hospital room to check on boss after heâd flown out the room.
âChairman Zou, are you alright?â Guangdong asked, his face pale as he reached his boss in the corridor.
Tiandi was fine. Heâd been taken aback by what had happened, but who wouldnât be after getting thrown out like that? Especially when that person was as aged as Tiandi was. He felt as if his heart had almost fallen out.
âIâll say this once, stay in the room if you dare. If not, get out in the next hour!â Tiandi took a short breath, and continued to threaten the people in the room. âIf you do decide to stay, Iâll make sure that you stay in that room for no longer than â
Bam! Lin Yi slammed the door shut before Tiandi could finish his rant.
âYou...â Tiandi was so pissed that heâd lost his breath. âVery well, you chose this yourself. Guangdong, call Ruoguang, tell him to bring his men!â Tiandi instructed as he motioned Guangdong to call.
âOf course, Chairman Zou.â Although Zhao Guangdong had already thought about calling Ruogang, he was waiting for his boss to give the orders, as he didnât want to do anything that his boss didnât want done. Once Ruogang arrives, the people in that room would definitely be done for! Zhao Guangdong smirked as thought to himself.
Tang Yin usually didnât approve of violence, but this time was an exception and she snickered at what Lin Yi had done to Tiandi. Lin Yi had always been reckless, like the day heâd smashed Zhang Biaoganâs barbeque stand.
Like what Lin Yi always said, âDifferent people require different approaches. When dealing with a violent man, violence is always the answer.â
âLin Yi, this man you just messed with... he has some ties with some very powerful people... you might want to be more careful with him next time.â Ma advised as he was concerned about Lin Yi. He even suggested calling security.
âThanks Mister Ma, but I think Iâll be fine. Although you might need to call a couple of paediatricians to come up soon.â Lin Yi said confidently.
âHuh?â The dean was at a losss. But as he started to think about it, he wondered if Lin Yi was trying to imply that after Zou Tiandiâs men arrived, he would be so badly injured that he would need medical assistance from the paediatricians.
But why go through it at all? Why would he want to get beat up? Ma was even more confused. But since Lin Yi had said so, he had no choice but to agree and improvise.
âXiaobo, you and Miss Song will go and pick up Fen. Tang Yin and I will stay here in this roomâ instructed Lin Yi. âZou Tiandiâs probably not going to leave without a fight. And if weâre going to face him, we might as well do it today.â
Lin Yi was never afraid of a fight. The incident with Tiandi didnât seem to budge him a bit.
Kang Xiaobo was well aware of Lin Yiâs capabilities. He wasnât worried at all. He had this weird confidence in Lin Yi- no matter what Lin Yi did, he always thought his boss placed first at whatever it was he was doing.
On the other hand, Song Huiping didnât really know what to do. She knew from Kang Xiaobo that Lin Yi was an aggressive man, so whatever Lin Yi was doing, she didnât know how to help. Instead, she just spectated from a corner.
If it had been another time, she wouldnât have dared to mess with a figure like Zou Tiandi. But this time, Lin Yi was around. And she definitely wasnât going to stop Lin Yi from messing with Tiandi.
At this point, she could only follow Kang Xiaoboâs lead, and they both walked back to the original room where Fen was at.
As the two left, Tang Yin and Lin Yi were left alone in the room. When Lin Yi suggested that she would stay in the room with him, she didnât say anything, but she had an unnatural look that seemed to be against it. âTo be honest, we didnât have to change the room. All this hassle for a new room... I donât think itâs worth it.â Tang Yin said.
âWhat hassle?â Lin Yi questioned with a grin. âThat guy at the door, he couldnât even look me in the eye. If he wants a fight though, heâll sure as hell get one.â
Having heard that, Tang Yin couldnât help but burst into laughter. âWhy do you like to bluff so much? Even if you were a young master, heâs still a pretty powerful figure.â
âHa...â Lin Yi chuckled. When you know youâre in control of someoneâs life, a personâs occupation or status doesnât seem to matter that much anymore.
Since Lin Yiâs solo missions from the age of ten, he saw his targets as only targets, even though some of them happened to be billionaires or mafia gang leaders.
âYou and your retarded laughs...â Seeing that Lin Yi was not going to respond to her comment, she angrily turned her back towards him, giving him the cold shoulder.
âWould you believe me if I told you Iâm helping Fen because sheâs your friend?â Tang Yin was pretending to be angry, and Lin Yi couldnât help but tease her a bit.
