Chapter 316 - Best Partner
Beauty and the Bodyguard
âNo need to go back- just do it here!â Yushu smiled slightly, her eyes on the band-aid on Pinliangâs finger.
Pinliang had another band-aid on his middle finger- the finger he was supposed to have cut today. He was trying to fool them into thinking that heâd cut his finger again!
âAh? Here?â Pinliang paused, a bitter smile on his face. âThe woundâs dried up, Iâd have to cut a new one againâ¦â¦â
âOh, thatâs fine- I have a graver blade! Here.â Yushu then procured for Pinliang a blade from her bag.
âIâ¦â¦.â Pinliang started sweating- he cursed his bad luck, annoyed that it all came down to him cutting his finger again.
Yushu was here looking at him, too- itâd be bad if he didnât prove himself right there and then. Cold sweat dripped down his forehead. âI donât think thatâs such a good idea⦠What if the blood hits you, and sprays everywhere, I donât wanna scare the two of you or anythingâ¦â
âI say, little Liang- this is something you donât understand.â There was no way sheâd let Pinliang leave like this- she needed him to bleed!! She put on an educational look. âCutting your finger and writing a letter of blood in front of the girl you love⦠Thatâs the best way to show your love for her!â
âIs that so?â Pinliang saw the sense in Yushuâs encouragement. âIâll do it now, then?â
âWhatâre you still waiting for?â Yushu asked.
âI⦠I understand!â A firm determination flashed across Pinliangâs eyes as he spoke.
Mengyao was quite amused- this Yushu really did things for her own pleasure, did she not have any problems toying with people?
But she wouldnât stop her, since Pinliang was someone she disliked.
Pinliang, on the other hand, mistook Mengyaoâs silence as a silent yes! After all, Mengyao wouldâve asked him to leave if she didnât like how things were going! Mengyao wasnât saying anything, so that meant only one thing⦠He had her blessing!
It only invigorated Pinliang with passion and decisiveness- he wondered which finger he should cut with Yushuâs blade.
Yushu shot a quick text at Lin Yi during Pinlaingâs hesitation. âCalling Shield Bro! Pinliangâs cutting his finger again, requesting backup!â
Pinliang gritted his teeth as he moved the blade along his thumb, as if he were making a very tough decision!
Lin Yi stood up slowly after seeing the text- that Pinliang really was cutting his finger again.. Couldnât he learn his lesson already?
âOut of my way!â Lin Yi moved Pinliang out of his way with a push.
Pinliang jumped upon hearing Lin Yiâs voice- he thought the guy was about to send him flying again!
But Lin Yi walked right past him after that push, and that was it, much to Pinliangâs surpriseâ¦
âFuuâ¦â Pinliang let out a breath of relief- the guy was probably in a hurry to get to the bathroom.
âWoah!!!â Yushu was point at Pinliangâs finger, clearly very excited. âLittle Liang! Your fingerâs spurting blood again!! Do you have some kind of power or something, is that the legendary vein sword of the gods?!â
Pinliang blinked, no understanding what Yushu was talking about- he lowered his head to see the piece of paper soaked with blood. His finger, on the other hand, had blood shooting out of itâ¦â¦
âAhh!!!â Pinliang threw the letter away and ran back to his seat. âFu, band-aid, band-aid!!â
Yushu only put up a âVâ sign as Pinliang ran off, pleased. âYay, mission success! Nice teamplay, Shield Bro!â
â.......â Mengyao eyed her friend, unsure of what to say. She was sure now that Lin Yi was responsible for both instances of Pinliangâs finger gun!
After all, the blood coming from Pinliang flowed slowly- it was only after Lin Yi had passed by that the blood started spraying out like that⦠It had to be Lin Yi.
Lin Yi and Yushu- they sure were the perfect duo, born for each other. Pinliang sure had a hard future ahead of him with these two around.
Mengyao felt a bit sour at the thought- born for each other..? Yet it was the truth that the two were quite similar in some aspects....
âHeh heh, how was that, Yao Yao! Nice, huh? Zhong Pinliang wonât be writing you any more blood letters anymore!â Yushu asked as she turned to look at Pinliang, busying himself with band-aids⦠Clearly, it wasnât enough to stop the blood.
Helpless, Pinliang resorted to tape, finally stopping the blood from coming out. What was up with his finger? It only happened when he cut it himself, tooâ¦â¦
Lin Yi came back to the classroom to see Yushu blinking at him, giving him a victory gesture. Lin Yi only smiled.
âBoss, whereâd you go? You missed it!â Xiaobo looked at Lin Yi, thinking that it was a pity.
âMissed what?â Lin YI asked with a smile upon returning to his seat.
âYou missed Pinliangâs blood spray, it happened again! He sure made quite the scene, too- Iâve never seen anyone bleed like that beforeâ¦â¦â Xiaobo said. âIt was even stronger than yesterdayâs too, man, you really missed it!â
âAh, is that soâ¦â¦â Lin Yi had heightened his blood pressure instead of just increasing the circulation speed, after allâ¦
Lin Yiâs phone vibrated again- it was another text.
âYo, best partner! Nice going, heh heh.â
It was from Yushu- Lin Yi slipped his phone back into his pocket after reading it.
