Beauty and the Bodyguard
chapter-712

Only Against Bad Guys

“Tang Yun, how did you get into a relationship with Shield bro?” Chen Yushu was eager to hear about it as Lin Yi only came to Songshan for a month.

“Why do you call him Shield bro?” Tang Yun asked back without replying. She never understood what his nickname meant.

“That’s because…” Before Chen Yushu could finish her sentence, Chu Mengyao cut him off.

“Ahem, we call him that because Shu feels like Lin Yi is like a Shield, protecting us from all the troubles…” Chu Mengyao didn’t want Chen Yushu to tell her the original meaning as it was extremely embarrassing!

If she accidentally exposed that she first hired Lin Yi as her boyfriend but looked down on him, Tang Yun would definitely laugh at her! Chu Mengyao regretted it. If she didn’t stop Lin Yi from acting as her boyfriend, then Tang Yun would have never had a chance.

“Oh, is that so…” Tang Yun nodded without questions. It was what a bodyguard should do! In fact, she never imagined that Lin Yi was hired at first to act as Chu Mengyao’s boyfriend and that the nature of the job gradually changed after that.

Lin Yi sat on the side without knowing what to say.

All this time, Lin Yi never really understood what the Miss’ attitude towards him was.

When he watched her competing against Tang Yun, he even assumed that she liked him. But when they were home, it didn’t seem like that anymore! She hid well and no one knew what she was thinking. Even Chen Yushu only saw the surface of Chu Mengyao!

Correspondingly, Chen Yushu was the same! What Chu Mengyao knew about her was also what Chen Yushu showed. Lin Yi didn’t believe that she was a naïve and brainless person. He thought she was smarter than everyone else, but she liked to live in a happy and carefree way.

Although they both hid well, the friendship between them was real, and they genuinely cared for each other. Lin Yi admired their relationship, especially after he saw Chu Mengyao faint. Only a minority of people could never leave their friends behind in a life or death situation!

“It’s your turn, how did you get together with Shield bro?” Chen Yushu asked again.

“Lin Yi and I…” Tang Yun glanced at Lin Yi as she spoke. Seeing that Lin Yi didn’t stop her, she continued.

It was a funny story. At first, Lin Yi probably didn’t have feelings towards her, but after the Zou Ruoming event, she had her guard up. She categorized Lin Yi into those wealthy masters who wanted to hit on her!

But after a series of accidents, Lin Yi helped her quite a few times and they became closer. The first breakthrough for them was the first time Lin Yi went to her place and saw Xiaofen trying to commit suicide…

Was that the time when she began to like him? Tang Yun shook her head since she didn’t remember the details. She didn’t know when she fell in love with him and became his girlfriend.

Tang Yun seemed like she was talking to herself, recounting the story to Chen Yushu and Chu Mengyao.

Here, Chu Mengyao finally understood how helpless Tang Yun felt when she was harassed by Zou Ruoming! She never imagined that a boy could be so bad, so wicked, and so shameless when pursuing a girl!

At school, Chu Mengyao wasn’t harassed by anyone else other than Zhong Pingliang. Everyone knew who she was, and no one dared to do anything to her. Even Zhong Pingliang got bothered by Chen Yushu every day, so she never experienced the helplessness.

However, considering that Zhong Pingliang tried to kidnap her even though she was the Miss of House Chu, wouldn’t Zou Ruoming be more unrestrained to harass Tang Yun, who didn’t have any background?

Chu Mengyao felt like sexual harassment, rape, and bullying were far from her. She even thought they were only rumors. After hearing Tang Yun’s words, she realized that things as such happened frequently around her, but she never tried to understand it.

The story between Lin Yi and Tang Yun was beautiful and romantic. A knight in shining armor saving the princess! It was vulgar but also passed down for thousands of years! Wasn’t the Legend of White Snake similar?

After Tang Yun’s recount, Chu Mengyao no longer hated her, but even pitied her! However, although she pitied Tang Yun, who would pity her? She finally felt the warmth of a family, and she wouldn’t let anyone take it away from her!

“Oh, if anyone else comes after you, leave him to me! I’ll make him leave defeated! Look at Yaoyao sis’ pursuers. Two of them had their kidneys cut off!” Chen Yushu said, “I only fight the bad guys!”

Although it sounded like a joke, Chu Mengyao understood what meant and she believed Tang Yun understood too. There was no need for Lin Yi since Chen Yushu could block her pursuers for her.

“There’s none now…” Tang Yun felt like Chen Yushu wasn’t brainless at all. In fact, she was horrifyingly smart. Since you couldn’t tell which sentence is real or fake, her joke hid many meanings behind it.

“Oh, that’s boring…” Chen Yushu was disappointed, “Zhong Pingliang lost a kidney. Zou Ruoming became a coward. I don’t know who to play with at school”

“Shu, your job is to study, not to play with people,” Chu Mengyao said.

“Okay, I’ll listen to Yaoyao sis. I’ll stop playing with people,” Chen Yushu nodded and turned to Lin Yi, “Shield bro, you have to study too, or you won’t get into the same university as us!”

Tang Yun was speechless. Same university? Did they plan to keep Lin Yi even in university? Are you going to make him your bodyguard forever?

“Why would we want him to apply for the same university? To watch him flirt with other girls?” Chu Mengyao frowned and commented subconsciously. After she finished speaking, she realized that it was inappropriate since Tang Yun was sitting right across from her. What she said was just about Lin Yi and Tang Yun, right?

Luckily, Chen Yushu talked before Tang Yun could, “Exactly. Miss Tang Yun, do you really like Shield bro? Do you want to be with him forever?”
