Beauty and the Bodyguard

She’ll Be Dead If I Don’t Save Her

Obviously, these children were worried about Yu Xiaoke’s injuries. They saw blood, so how could they stay calm?

The old lady finally looked at Lin Yi after all the children left, “Did Xiaoke steal your money? Even if she did, you were too harsh… And you even followed her here… I’ll return the amount she stole from you, but I hope that you can let her go… She’s a good girl, I believe you can see it. She steals money for the sake of this orphanage. If I wasn’t so useless, I wouldn’t let her step outside…”

The old lady didn’t want the children of the orphanage to know that their respectful Xiaoke sis worked hard every day to earn money for them was in the way of robbery. Only the lady knew about it and no one else.

That was also why she asked those children to go back inside since it was better to hide this from them. It will affect their perspective, and it was bad for their growth.

Lin Yi immediately knew that the old lady mistook his intentions. She treated him as the person who was robbed and injured Yu Xiaoke. He followed her here obviously for the sake of taking what was taken back.

The old lady was fully aware of Yu Xiaoke’s skills. Although she wasn’t too powerful, the person who injured her must be an extraordinary person! Since Lin Yi could harm Yu Xiaoke, he obviously practiced martial arts. Although she couldn’t tell what level Lin Yi was at, she stayed on guard.

So, she explained and hoped that Lin Yi could understand their difficulty.

“You misunderstood me. She didn’t steal my money,” Lin Yi shook his head.

“She didn’t steal it?” The old lady was surprised, “Why did you harm her if she didn’t steal your money?”

Her tone of voice became serious and she looked alarmed. In an instant, an imposing aura surrounded her.

“A Gold division master?” Lin Yi was surprised but shook his head, “You aren’t at the gold division yet… But your aura tells me otherwise… Odd…”

Lin Yi immediately sensed the old lady’s capabilities the moment she let out her aura. It was the first stage of the gold division! However, although her aura showed that she was at the gold division, Lin Yi sensed that something was wrong. Her energy wasn’t heavy, and she at most reached the halfway mark of the gold division. It was if something sealed half of her pure energy.

“You… You know about the gold division?” The old lady’s expressions changed drastically and glared at Lin Yi without blinking. She didn’t expect Lin Yi see right through her. Was he a master too?

“I didn’t hurt Xiaoke, Song Lingshan was the one who injured her,” Lin Yi didn’t answer her question about gold division but explained why Yu Xiaoke was harmed.

“Song Lingshan? Song Lingshan from the criminal police department?” The old lady obviously heard of this name before.

“Yes. Please make some space. She’s severely injured, and she will die if I don’t save her,” Lin Yi ignored the lady and squatted down to hold Yu Xiaoke’s hand.

The old lady was ready to fight with all she had under the tense situation, but Lin Yi looked like he didn’t want to fight with her at all. He squatted down and completely exposed all his weaknesses to her. The old lady didn’t know what to do.

Should I attack him or not? The old lady thought that she had the absolute advantage if she attacked from this angle. At least, she could initiate the attack and take the initiative in her own hands. However, Lin Yi said he didn’t harm Yu Xiaoke but came to save her?

Although the old lady didn’t believe Lin Yi’s words, the way he held her hands didn’t look like he wanted to harm her either. She calmed down slightly but still stayed alert.

Lin Yi checked Yu Xiaoke’s injuries. Song Lingshan’s attack only shifted Yu Xiaoke’s internal organs, and she could recover after resting for a period of time. However, Yu Xiaoke used the last bit of her energy and ran back to the orphanage, making her situation worse. She had internal injuries and if they weren’t treated, she will be left with residual effects even after she healed.

“Find me a quiet room and don’t let anyone disturb me!” Lin Yi carried Yu Xiaoke up and ordered the old lady.

“You… Are you really going to save her?” The old lady naturally didn’t believe LIn Yi as it was their first encounter. She didn’t know what was Yu Xiaoke’s relationship with Lin Yi so she hesitated.

“If you can treat her, I’ll let you do it,” Lin Yi replied indifferently.

“I…” How did she know how to treat injuries? Without Lin Yi, her first decision would be sending Yu Xiaoke to the hospital.

Perhaps Yu Xiaoke’s wounds were stimulated when Lin Yi lifted her up. When the old lady was hesitating whether she should believe Lin Yi or not, Yu Xiaoke woke up and opened her eyes with difficulty. Seeing that Lin Yi was carrying her, she froze for a second and said, “You are kinder after all. Are you sending me to the hospital? Did Song Lingshan come after me?”

“Xiaoke, how do you feel?” The old lady didn’t expect Yu Xiaoke to wake up and asked in delight.

“Master…” Yu Xiaoke forced a smile, “I’m alright. Song Lingshan attacked me…”

Yu Xiaoke fainted again after finishing her sentence. She thought that Lin Yi would definitely save her and the dean was here. He didn’t have to force herself anymore.

The old lady heard Yu Xiaoke’s words and saw that she didn’t hold any hostility towards Lin Yi. She finally put her heart at rest and guided Lin Yi to an empty room, “This is Xiaoke’s room, it’s separate from the children. No one should be able to disturb you here… But can you really save her?”

Lin Yi frowned. Since this old lady was Yu Xiaoke’s master, and she genuinely cared about her, Lin Yi tried not to act too impatient.

“I can. Leave first,” LIn Yi replied.

“But…” The old lady was unwilling to do so since she didn’t fully trust Lin Yi. She was afraid that Lin Yi would hurt Yu Xiaoke! Yu Xiaoke was rather pretty and Lin Yi could have evil thoughts. What if he did something wrong to Yu Xiake when she was unconscious.

If Lin Yi knew what she was thinking, he could only laugh bitterly.

“You can watch if you want to,” Lin Yi didn’t chase her away. Since she was at the gold division, she should be able to see how he would save Yu Xiaoke.
