Chapter 287 - Go Stop Him
Beauty and the Bodyguard
âWhatâs wrong, Yao Yao? Yushu was still oblivious to how sheâd made Mengyao speechless with one sentence.
âShu, mind your language! How can you just throw that around like that, what if a guy hears you? Itâd be really embarrassing!â Mengyao said as she maintained her composure.
âOh⦠I donât see anything wrong with that. Also, there arenât any tampons left at home! I was still thinking of getting Shield Bro to buy some!â Yushu said, not a care in the world.
âYou canât! How could you have a guy buy something so private for you??â Mengyao glared at Yushu. âIâll call Uncle Fu later, weâll get him to buy us some!â
âUghâ¦â¦â Yushu blinked. âBut Yao Yao, isnât Uncle Fu a guy tooâ¦â¦â
Yushu pitied Uncle Fu- Mengyao was always calling him an eunuch! She wondered what Uncle Fu would have to say about that.
âThatâs different, Uncle Fu is an elder!â Mengyao was starting to think that she was going too far herself- it seemed like she didnât treat Uncle Fu as a man anymoreâ¦â¦
âOh⦠Alright then.â Yushu nodded half-heartedly. âWeâll get Uncle Fu to buy them.â
âThatâs more like itâ¦â¦ Also, what do we do about that stupid letter Zhong Pinliangâs planning on writing?? It sounds so scary- I donât want to be having nightmares about a letter of blood tonight!â Mengyao said.
âWell, youâll need to ask Shield Bro for this kind of stuff- get him to take care of it.â Yushuâs current philosophy was that any problem should be directed to Lin Yi.
âOkay, you message him and tell him to take care of it!â Mengyao nodded, finding herself agreeing with Yushuâs philosophy.
Lin Yi looked at the text on his phone, speechless. âYao Yao wants you to stop Zhong Pinliang from writing her a letter of blood! Itâs up to you now!â
He could beat Pinliang up without any problems, but⦠stopping him from writing a letter of blood? Wasnât that a bit of a stretch? What excuse would he even use?? Should he perhaps tell Pinliang not to do such a thing, else heâd beat him up?
What sort of identity would he even approach him with in the first place? Lin Yi was starting to get a headache, but the Miss had given the order. He stood up and walked over to Pinliangâs desk.
Pinliang was currently holding a small blade in his hand, hesitating as it hovered it over his finger. He wasnât afraid of the pain, but cutting his own finger was a bit too terrifying!
âFu, come help me out- I canât do this myself!â Pinliang handed the blade to Xiaofu.
âOkay!â Xiaofu didnât really mind- it wasnât his own finger that heâd be cutting anyway. âIâm gonna cut you then, endure it, Liang Bro!â
âAlright⦠Ughâ¦â¦.â Pinliang gritted as fresh blood dripped out of his finger. There werenât any big veins around the tips of the fingers, so the blood didnât spill out or anything.
âHurry and write, Liang Bro! Weâll have to cut you again if the blood dries up!â Xiaofu said.
âOh, yes!!â Pinliang then turned his attention to the piece of paper heâd prepared and started writing on itâ¦
He just finished writing one âYaoâ when Lin Yi stopped in front of him silently. Pinliang raised his head after feeling someoneâs presence, blinking as he saw Lin Yi right in front of him. âWhat.. What are you planning to do?â
What the hell was Lin Yi doing here?? Was he here to cause trouble for him once more?!
âOh, nothing- just curious what youâre up to.â Lin Yi looked at Pinliangâs letter of blood as he lowered his head.
âWriting a letter of blood, what else? Lin Yi, I didnât do anything to you, okay, leave me alone.â Pinliang said, a little scared.
âOh, not bad. Iâm impressed, not bad at all!â Lin Yi said as he tapped on Pinliangâs body a bit. âI just came to see if youâre really doing it- you didnât disappoint me!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
With that, Lin Yi turned and left, leaving a puzzled Pinliang staring at him. So the guy wasnât here to mess him up? He even encouraged him, what the hell??
âAh!!â Xiaofu cried out all of a sudden, scaring Pinliang as well.
Pinliang wasnât too happy about that. âWhatâre you shouting for, Fu?â
âLiang Bro, your hand⦠Your handâ¦â¦â Xiaofuâs eyes were wide open as he stared at Pinliangâs hand. âWhat happened to you, Liang Bro!!â
Pinliang looked down at his hand, confused⦠Tons of blood were spurting out of his finger, spraying and reddening the paper and table!!
âAh!!â Pinliang cried out as well, almost fainting! He had no idea! After all, one couldnât really tell how much blood one was losing- the only thing the bleeder could feel was the pain, and the only real way to check the blood spurting out was by looking at it directly!
There had been a famous experiment once- theyâd blindfolded a guy and made a cut on his arm before bringing him to a room with the sound of water droplets dripping- the test subject was convinced that it was his own blood dripping, and died of shock right on the spot!
It was proof that it was extremely hard for a regular person to know how much blood was actually coming out of a wound without looking at it.
Pinliang was starting to panic as he stared at the red spray- where the hell was all that blood coming from?! It was like one of those water guns he played with when he was younger!! Pinliang knew for a certainty that the spray would reach very far should he lift his fingerâ¦.
âAm I gonna die? Fu! Get me to the hospital!!â Writing a letter of blood was the least of his concerns at that point- he couldnât even stand properly! âFu, call my dad, tell him to come get me, hurryâ¦â¦â
The other students stared at Pinliangâs finger, shocked as well as they covered their mouths- how was this much blood coming out from a finger??
âYao Yao, look- Pinliangâs finger turned into a water gunâ¦â¦â Yushu said, clearly fascinated.
Mengyao wasnât taking this very well. âLin Yi didnât do that, did he?â
âDunno. Probably. Shield Broâs really strong, you know! He can even kill sharks, let alone Zhong Pinliangs!!â Yushu said.
One had to wonder if Pinliang would be happy if Yushu compared him with a shark- or would he be sad?
Lin Yi glanced at the panicking Pinliang from the corner of his eyes, his lips curling. Heâd just pressed some of his acupuncture spots to speed up the blood circulation⦠There was no need to go to the hospital at all, it wasnât even that much blood, he wouldnât die from it or anything⦠Heâd be back to normal if he just waitedâ¦...
