Chapter 329 - I Dont Know What To Feel
Beauty and the Bodyguard
None of the Bluewater were expecting this turn of events- nobody expected their own guy to just headshot their leader!!
They were only starting to get confused when Lin Yi picked the cool girl up with Jinbiao.
Lin Yi was already at his car by the time they went through the confusion, and had thrown the girl in the back by the time theyâd come to their sensesâ¦
Jinbiaoâs legs were all soft at that point. He knew about how normal killing and kidnapping was at Bluewater, but none of that ever happened to him firsthand!
Yet here he was, right smack in the middle of an actual shooting. Heâd be a corpse if Lin Yi hadnât reacted so quicklyâ¦
âGet in the car, whatâre you doing?! Donât make me leave without you!â Lin Yi said impatiently. What was the guy standing there for??
âB-Bro⦠My legs⦠theyâre all soft⦠Can you help me out a bitâ¦â¦â Jinbiao said with a bitter face, not daring to piss Lin Yi off. The guy was a monster! Heâd killed the leader with one unhesitant shot and bailed the place with two people on him! No normal human could do something that insane.
Lin Yi walked over with quick steps and kicked Jinbiao in, closing the door behind him before he got in the driverâs seat.
They were on the move the next instant, and parked in the hotelâs parking lot by the time the Bluewater had dispatched their pursuing carsâ¦
Yang Qiqi woke up to feel her shoulder bleeding from the bullet wound- sheâd been enduring the pain as she made her escape, only to have another bullet hit her leg as she did so⦠She tripped herself from the impact and fainted from the blood loss.
But Qiqi had willpower stronger than most- she hadnât been completely unconscious even under all that blood loss, managing to wake herself upâ¦
Sheâd actually regained some awareness when Lin Yi picked her up, her feelings a bit too complicated to process.
Heâd saved her again!! Her debt towards him⦠Was she still allowed to kill him with a debt this big?
Qiqi feigned unconsciousness even when she was awake because of that.
âGo up with my room key and donât look suspicious.â Lin Yi handed his room card to Jinbiao. âIâm not gonna do anything for you if you get spotted.â
âAh⦠okayâ¦â¦â Jinbiao didnât want to go up on his own, but there was no point dilly dallying here- Lin Yi wouldnât care what he had to say. There was that assassin girl in the backseat, too- what sort of relationship did she have with Lin Yi? Jinbiao didnât dare ask.
He was about to walk into the hotel when LIn Yi called out to him. âWait! Take the hat off!â
Going in with that hat would attract attention- there was no telling how things would turn out if the Bluewater came looking for them here and asking the staff questions.
âY-Yes!!â Jinbiao took the hat off; the thought had evidently crossed his mind as well. Lin Yi sure was a cautious man.
âGo up yourself, through the back door. Try not to let anyone see you.â Lin Yi said faintly.
The Bluewater wouldnât think that Xie Jinbiao had been released- their attention was currently focused on the assassin girl and the two Bluewater âtraitorsâ, but⦠better safe than sorry.
âI understand! Iâll be careful!â Jinbiaoâs legs were still wobbly, but they were more or less functional. Not listening to Lin Yi, on the other hand, wasnât something he wanted to do- he didnât want Lin Yi to abandon him.
Lin Yi turned to the backseat after watching Jinbiao go in the hotel. âStill alive? Tell me where you live!â
âKanha Hotelâ¦â¦â Qiqi tried to put on a grateful look on her pale face. âThanksâ¦â¦â
âNo need to thank me, alright? Just stop trying to kill me.â Lin Yi said, unaffected by the gratitude.
âCan you turn on the lights back here? I wanna pull the bullets out firstâ¦â Sheâd definitely attract attention if she just went back to the hotel like this- stopping the blood after pulling out the bullets would make her less conspicuous, especially if she wrapped herself in a jacket.
âYouâd attract attention if you turn the lights on.â Lin Yi wanted to scold this girl. âWho the hellâs your mentor? How are you an assassin at that skill level, howâre you still alive???â
âIâ¦â¦â Qiqiâs face was a little red as she glared at Lin Yi angrily. âDonât talk about my shifu like that! Itâs⦠Itâs only my second mission! My mom says that people grow from their failuresâ¦â¦.â
âSecond⦠time?â Lin Yi didnât know what to say. âSo that time in Songshan, that was your first time?â
âYeahâ¦â¦â Qiqi hmphed softly with a nod.
âYouâ¦â¦ I donât know what to feel.â Lin Yi was going insane. âI get howâre you still alive now- because you bumped into me both times! Thatâs why youâre still alive!â
Two missions, two injuries? What kind of assassin was this? What? Kind?!
Lin Yi didnât know what to say- this girl looked so tough and cool only to be a big weak softie on the inside!
âIâm not that bad, okay⦠Iâm just a bit down on luckâ¦â¦â Qiqi lowered her head, a little embarrassed.
âI think Iâm more down on luck than you are.â Lin Yi smiled bitterly. âWho even permitted you to go on missions? You have⦠basically zero experienceâ¦â¦â
âI⦠I mean, everyone goes through that stage! Thatâs how you get strong!â Qiqi retorted.
âFine, Iâll embrace this bad luck, okay? Tell me where the bullet is, Iâll get it out for you.â Lin Yi didnât want to turn on the lights- itâd grab the attention of curious passersby.
âRight shoulder and left legâ¦â¦â Qiqi said softly.
âGive me your dagger. Itâs clean, right?â Lin Yi said as Qiqi handed him the weapon.
