Chapter 325 - Ten Years Revenge
Beauty and the Bodyguard
âBecause I admire him!â The cool girl was trying to sound cute, but had no such expression on her face- it felt off.
âAdmire him?â Lin Yi curled his lips, amused. âIâm sorry, I really donât know him, but it doesnât seem like you actually admire or respect him? A girl like you coming to Blue Town talking about how you admire the Bluewater mafia boss, you think anyone would believe that?â
The cool girlâs face tensed up for an unnoticeable instant. âOf course. Whatâs else?â
âWhat else?â Lin Yi hmphed. âIâll tell you what else, thereâs a SUV thatâs been tailing us, do you know the people in there?â
âSUV?â The cool girl turned behind her after a pause, a brief instant of rage appearing on her face. âI donât.â
âYou donât? Alright then, Iâll shake them off.â Lin Yi switched up the gear and the sedan rumbled and charged with a burst like a wild horse- they were instantly a far distance away from the SUV when Lin Yi swerved into a smaller road, turning left and right and left and right again, making his way into an alley before the SUV even caught up to the first turn.
The cool girl stared at Lin Yi, completely taken aback. âHow⦠Whyâre you so good at driving?â
âYou sure have a lot of questions, donât you? Youâve been asking me non-stop the whole time, so what exactly are you up to?â Lin Yi got right to the point- he was getting impatient with this girl.
Sheâd looked familiar, and she was an Eastern girl like he was- he wouldnât have picked her up for a ride if heâd known about the trouble heâd get involved in. Sheâd been asking weird questions too, and there was no way she was just a regular tourist now that an SUV had been tailing her. Lin Yi wanted to have nothing to do with her as soon as possible.
âWho exactly are you? Youâre not a member of the Waterblue?â The girl realized that something was up as well- sheâd seen how Lin Yi was a Bluewater member coming out from HQ, but that didnât seem like the case at all! The guy didnât even know the roads here, heâd only shaken the SUV off because of how good his driving skills were!
Lin Yi had driven the car into an alley, too- an alley with a dead end, with a junkyard in front of them. There was no way to run, and the place had evidently been abandoned⦠There was no way a local Bluewater would lack the geographical knowledge to get himself stuck in an alley like this.
Thereâd been chances for him to go left or right before he reached the dead end, but Lin Yi did no such thing- he just drove straight on, evidently unaware of the dead end ahead!
He said he didnât know about Kanha Hotel, either⦠Something was wrong!
âIâm not!â Lin Yi admitted candidly. âI was just buying a car, and the hat was a gift!â
â......â The girl didnât know what to say- she frowned in frustration. Was she really this horrible in the field?
Sheâd gotten hurt when going on her first mission, and now that the injuries had finally healed sheâd taken on a second mission only to have her family tailing her to protect her..?
On top of that was a failure that made her feel the worst- sheâd mistaken someone else for a Bluewater member, spilling needless information to him!
The guy was now suspicious of her, and the chances for her missionâs success were looking quite slim.
With that in mind, the cool girlâs hand moved and a knife flashed right at Lin Yiâs chest.
Lin Yi caught the hand with a smack.
âYou-!â The girl wasnât expecting this at all- she was inexperienced, but still a top tier combatant in terms of physical ability! She wouldnât have been allowed on a solo mission by her family otherwise!
She was very confident in her abilities- as far as she was concerned, Lin Yi was defenseless and had been focusing on reversing the car.
And yet heâd managed to catch her hand under that distraction- she tried to pull her hand back after the initial shock, to no avail. Lin Yi wasnât letting her go at all.
âYou- let go of me!!â The girl sent her other fist at Lin Yiâs face as she spoke.
Lin Yi frowned as he tilted his head to avoid it. âDidnât you go read that story about Mister Dongguo after you went back? Were you even listening at all?â
The girl froze, pausing her attacks as disbelief filled her eyes. âY-You⦠You⦠Youâre that guy who molested me??â
âIâm your savior!â Lin Yi corrected. âI saved your life, but look what you did? You tried to kill me! I even gave you a ride today, answering all of your questions for free, and here you are trying to kill me again.â
âYouâ¦â¦â Yang Qiqiâs cool face looked upset and wronged- she was afraid that heâd ruin her plans, she had to have him killed! And it had been his fault for touching and looking at her body that other time, too, she wouldnât have tried to kill him otherwise!
Lin Yi had been observing this cool girl the whole car ride, trying to remember where heâd seen her face before⦠That knife she stabbed at him was what made him recall- this was that female assassin heâd met at the pharmacy back in Songshan!
â'You', 'you', 'you', stop saying âyouâ!!â Lin YI frowned. âGet out before I count to three! Donât let me see your pretty face again, miss ungrateful. I wonât go easy on you next time.â
Lin Yi admitted that Qiqi was pretty, but having a murderous assassin around him was not something he was very keen on. Although, the jade would always warn him before she attacked him.
Qiqiâs looked pretty upset- she stared at Lin Yi angrily. âFine, Iâll get out! But Iâll come back for you, even if it takes ten years to beat you!!â
âTry to stay alive that long first.â Lin Yi replied casually.
