Chapter 1425: Love Confession
Chapter 1424 – Love Confession
Wait! The jade? Lin Yi suddenly remembered the jade did warn him when You Xiaoke was trying to touch Skybolt pig!
Thinking until this point, Lin Yi quickly grabbed onto You Xiaoke’s hand!
You Xiaoke didn’t see this coming- she thought that Lin Yi was trying to give her some comforts because she was feeling uncomfortable and all, blushed, her face turned red! The two were getting closer and closer, during the whole tomb raiding journey, You Xiaoke’s heart was racing involuntarily fast, it was the same this time.However, Lin Yi didn’t do anything inappropriate when he held onto You Xiaoke’s hand; he only checked the wound SKybolt pig did on her finger.
“Found it!” Lin Yi saw the swollen wound on You Xiaoke’s finger and nodded as the truth dawned upon him. “This Skybolt pig’s quill is poisonous!”
“Ah? Poisonous?” You Xiaoke started to feel the itchiness on her finger when Lin Yi pointed it out.
“Stupid pig, give me the antidote!” Lin Yi stomped his foot and demanded.
“Ji Ji…..” Skybolt pig felt wronged as he put on an innocent face- he didn’t do it on purpose; it was a defense mechanism he had within him! Lin Yi couldn’t understand what Skybolt pig was trying to say, but General Weiwu could.
“Woof, woof!” General Weiwu pointed at You Xiaoke and waved its paw and demonstrated a sleeping position.
“Oh… he says that the poison is nothing dangerous. You’ll feel better after you fall asleep.” Lin Yi explained.“I see!” You Xiaoke let out a breath of relief.
“Is there a way to remove the toxin?” Lin Yi asked.
“Ji ji…” Skybolt pig was unwilling to cooperate at first but looking at Lin Yi again, he pondered, he strolled towards You Xiaoke slowly and pulled out one of his quills, turned the quill upside down, and used the follicle part gently rubbed on You Xiaoke’s wound.
“Ah!” You Xiaoke felt the pain and screamed.
But Lin Yi didn’t stop him- he knew that the pig was removing the toxin from You Xiaoke. Otherwise, there was no way Skybolt pig would dare to harm You Xiaoke in front of him; he would be kicked out of the party if he did that!
“Ji ji…” Skybolt pig threw the quill away and shook his body, telling Lin Yi the poison was neutralized.
“EH? this magical? My wound is not itchy anymore, and my head isn’t dizzy too!” You Xiaoke exclaimed, astonished. “This little thing is really impressive!”
“Learn who my foe’s are and who my friend’s are. Stop simply poking people, or else I will kick you out of the house!” Lin Yi said towards Skybolt pig.
“Ji ji…” Skybolt pig nodded, understood.
After leaving the tomb, Lin Yi, You Xiaoke, Skybolt pig, and General Weiwu went to the edge of the cliff.
Lin Yi’s speed was fast, and You Xiaoke was an expert in qinggong too, so four of them arrived the city in a blink of an eye.
“Sparrow girl, this is where we will part. You can get in the cab here.” Lin Yi pointed at the station direction. “Goodbye!”
“Ah— are we really separating now….” You Xiaoke looked at Lin Yi, a little reluctant…
From her birth till now, other than her master, the person who cared for her the most was the Male Thief! The entire tomb raiding trip would become an unforgettable memory burned into her brain! She would never forget how the Male Thief saving her out of the danger again and again.
“Hehe, return to your original life. Don’t come raiding the tomb again. As for me, I won’t be a tomb raider anymore, so I can’t protect you forever.” Lin Yi said.
“Oh…” You Xiaoke was feeling a little upset- the Male Thief did say that he did come for the special medicine for her girlfriend, so it was totally normal for him to abandon the life of an outlaw for her as well. “Then… will we meet in the future?”
You Xiaoke knew that her question was stupid since the Male Thief was abandoning his identity as the tomb raider, and she was determined not to join a mission like this anymore. Their chances of meeting each other were basically zero, perhaps they would never meet again anymore!
“Without any accident, we won’t I guess.” Lin Yi smiled. This identity of his was coming to an end. Male Thief was never Lin Yi from the beginning, he was just a rip-off of the Male Thief, and now that the mission was over, naturally, there was no point of Lin Yi pretending the Male Thief anymore. Unless Lin Yi was too bored and had nothing better to do.
“Is that so…..” You Xiaoke already knew the answer, but she had to ask for confirmation no matter what, otherwise she wouldn’t give up completely.
“Okay, this is the final goodbye!” Lin Yi continued. “You’re pretty and very kind in nature. I hope you can find your true love!”
How could Lin Yi not know what You Xiaoke was thinking all this time? But Lin Yi really had no mood to start a relationship with her now because of the limitation of this identity and as well as the safety of Feng Xiaoxiao- he was worried.
“Oh….” You Xiaoke dropped her head down- she understood what the Male Thief was trying to say, but courage suddenly built inside her as she raised her head up again. “Then… can you at least take down your mask and show me your face?”
“No!” Lin Yi rejected immediately- was this a joke? Taking off the mask was the same as exposing her to who he was!
“Just a glimpse! Please, I won’t tell anybody….” You Xiaoke begged.
“What’s the difference?” Lin Yi asked faintly.
“At the very least…. let me have a wonderful memory…” You Xiaoke became reluctant, as she explained.
“Okay, why not we make a deal, if perhaps you were able to recognize me with my mask off on the street, I will admit my real identity- I swear I’ll not deny the claim, is that okay?” Lin Yi was speechless.
“Oh….” You Xiaoke didn’t give much thought about the possibility- she thought that the Male Thief was just trying to brush her off.
“Okay, I got to go, take care!” Lin Yi turned behind and left with General Weiwu and Skybolt pig behind him.
“Male Thief, I like you!” Looking at the Male Thief’s back, she finally had the courage to confess as she shouted out her inner voice! You Xiaoke was not a hesitant person- she was brave and adventurous. She felt that if she didn’t confess now, she would have lost her only opportunity to do so.
Lin Yi paused for a moment and resumed his advance without looking back.
“I will surely find you!” After shouting out her inner voice, she became even braver. “I might not know how you look like, but I recognize the dog and the pig; this combination is probably very uncommon. As long as I remember them, I can find you someday!”
F*ck! Lin Yi almost tripped listening to You Xiaoke’s words!
