Chapter 120 - Can I See?"Holding on? Yes, that'd be fine if it were just holding on." Xuemin sighed. "You know it yourself- those sedative painkillers cause huge damage to your body. Let's not even talk about whether the medicine works, or if your body develops drug resistance…… You'll have long fallen to the painkillers before any of that would've taken effect…...""Ah, that's right……" The prescription Lin Yi gave him crossed his mind. He'd gotten a couple of medicines from a pharmacy, thinking that it was worth a try…He boiled the medicine when the pain prevented him from falling asleep- and it turned out to be extremely effective! His body stopped hurting not long after that, and he slept through the whole night until sunrise, waking up with an indescribable freshness in his body. It was much better than waking up from the pain in the middle of the night with the painkillers, after they'd worn off. He only needed to use Lin Yi's medicine once.Yang Huaijun never expected it to be that effective, especially when it wasn't something he'd went to great lengths to make for him. He'd been able to contain his pain with Lin Yi's medicine the last couple of days, and Huaijun couldn't help but be impressed.As expected of Eagle, a G.o.dly existence within the team…… It wasn't just Huaijun who admired him so, too- anyone who'd fought alongside Lin Yi respected his abilities.
As a result, none of the boys envied Lin Yi when their G.o.ddess fell in love with him- something like that was only bound to happen, after all. It was only natural.Huaijun considered telling Xuemin about Lin Yi's prescription. He was never told to keep it a secret, but Lin Yi might very well be undergoing a special mission- it was a possibility that he'd cause him trouble if he shared the prescription with someone else.But Guan Xuemin was his elder- Huaijun would've been dead long ago if it weren't for Xuemin. The doctor's acupuncture and the painkillers were the only things keeping him alive after he'd left the battlefield……"Grandpa Guan…… So a friend of mine gave me a prescription a couple of days ago, to replace the sedative painkillers…… I tried it, and the results were really prominent- the effects don't wear off as fast, too, and I don't need to take it twice like how I do with the painkillers every night……" Huaijun said, deciding to leave part of the secret hidden. He'd be respecting both sides with this option."Prescription to replace the painkillers?" Guan Xuemin asked, his eyes wide. "Eastern medicine prescription?""Yes……" Xuemin nodded, feeling a little shy from how Xuemin was staring at him."And you said it's effective on you..?" It was one big shock after another today! First there was Tianyi mentioning a twenty year old Eastern ma.s.seur who'd saved Elder Liu from angina pectoris with just ma.s.saging, and now Huaijun was saying that his friend's prescription replaced the painkillers, stopping the pain attacks with prominent effects!What was happening? Since when was the world of Eastern medicine so filled with medical prodigies?"To tell the truth, Grandpa Guan- this prescription's actually really effective. Getting rid of the pain is just one thing; there's always this refreshed feeling I get when I wake up the next day after taking the medicine……" Huaijun continued honestly."Oh? Can I see the prescription?" Guan Xuemin was concerned that there might've been opium or some sort of illegal drug mixed into the prescription- prominent sedative effects could be achieved through that mean, but it'd cause immense harm to the body, as well! More thought into the matter, however, and Xuemin realized that that couldn't be the case. The man was a cop, and a criminal police captain, at that- he'd be pretty familiar with drugs like opium, and he'd never get anywhere near that kind of thing. Substances like those weren't commonly found in pharmacies, as well.If Huaijun had gotten the medical ingredients from a pharmacy, then it was only natural to a.s.sume that the prescription would contain medicines readily available at regular pharmacies. Xuemin realized that he was complicating things upon further thought.Xuemin smiled bitterly at the face Huaijun was making- he seemed to be in a tight spot, and Xuemin understood: many prescriptions were kept secret because of their value. Taking the current miracle doctor, Doctor Kang, for example- the guy had founded an empire of medicine based on just one prescription that healed wounds, propelling the Kang family into the world of top tier houses because of that!The prescription hadn't any side-effects, so if what Huaijun had described were true… Then that recipe had to at least be on the level of the miracle doctor's prescription, in terms of value…..Him asking for the prescription did indeed put Huaijun in a bad position, and Xuemin explained his intentions immediately. "Yang, don't jump to any conclusions- I know well that prescriptions are usually kept secret. I only meant to see if there were any ingredients with side effects involved……""It's not a prescription we should be revealing to outsiders, but Grandpa Guan- it's still fine if you'd like to see it……" Huaijun said. "I'll get it for you right now, but please don't tell anyone else about it before my friend gives his permission……""Of course! I'm familiar with those rules, rest a.s.sured, Yang. Grandpa won't put you into a hard spot- I'll make sure to keep the prescription secret until you friend consents otherwise." Xuemin said, joyed at Huaijun's words- after all, even just looking at a prescription like that would enlighten him significantly.Huaijun had always kept the prescription with him even after he'd gotten the medicines from the pharmacy. He pulled it out and handed it to Xuemin, aware that someone like Lin Yi would've made sure to tell him if he'd wanted something kept secret. This meant that Lin Yi didn't need the prescription kept secret, but even so, Huaijun wanted to make sure and have Lin Yi's consent before he let Xuemin share the prescription with anyone else.Xuemin received the prescription carefully. He didn't react too much as he read the first parts, but it wasn't long before Xuemin's expressions turned into shock and surprise as he went through the herbs and ingredients listed……"This is the prescription?" Xuemin couldn't believe it- the ingredients on there were absolutely ordinary! There wasn't a single ingredient that was particularly expensive or rare, but some of them, like gastrodia for example, did provide sedative effects. Xuemin had given these ingredients to Huaijun before, as well, but the results weren't very prominent. Did these ingredients hold a different effect when mixed together?Xuemin was stunned, but he was still the Dean of Eastern Doctors, at the end of the day… He understood that the prescriptions in Eastern medicine were susceptible to drastic changes with just the difference of one ingredient……The ingredients prescribed weren't too dissimilar- they all targeted the pain in the muscles, and there wasn't anything special about them. What Xuemin was certain of, however, was the fact that all these ingredients were clean- there wouldn't be anything like opium inside of them……"Yeah, that's the one. Is there a problem, Grandpa Guan?" Huaijun asked, curious at the stunned face Xuemin was making. Chapter 121 - Lin Yi the Miracle Doctor"No……" Xuemin said, shaking his head. "Eastern medicine truly does stretch deep…… I've learned something quite significant today- ordinary herbs and medicine, mixed together to create such an extraordinary effect…...I'm not quite familiar with how this prescription works yet, but you are living proof of its authenticity.""So it's completely safe to use?" Huaijun had used the prescription without so much as a shred of doubt, due completely to his trust in Lin Yi- the guy was someone he had entrusted his life with in the warzones, after all. There was no way he'd do anything to harm him.But Xuemin's acknowledgement of the prescription stunned Huaijun as well- the man's words cemented Lin Yi's medicine as nothing short of extraordinary."Naturally, of course. This man who gave you the prescription, I take it he's a renowned man in the medical world……" Xuemin said. "Well, I'm not trying to get his name or anything of the sort, though I'd very much like to meet him- I'd want to learn from some of his ways, if possible……""Ah…… Grandpa Guan, I'll make sure to convey your intentions to him the next time I see him, but……" Huaijun said slowly."I understand, it's fine if it's a one sided wish. Haha…… I'm quite self-aware- after all, he's a miracle doctor, that friend of yours……" Xuemin said understandingly.Miracle doctor? Huaijun couldn't believe what he was hearing- did Guan Xuemin just call Lin Yi a miracle doctor? He'd known that Lin Yi was a miracle soldier, an absolute asura in the warzones, but a miracle doctor on top of that..? The prescription he'd gotten from back home did have good results, but giving Lin Yi the image of a miracle doctor might be a bit of a stretch here……"Sure thing…… I'll make sure to tell him……" Huaijun said with a nod- there wasn't much else for him to say."That's good. You're looking a lot better now, Yang- your friend's prescription is clearly working. The way things are, it shouldn't be a problem for you to keep holding on, provided that your body doesn't start developing any drug resistance." Guan Xuemin had been observing Huaijun ever since the guy had entered the villa. The 'sight' aspect in Eastern medicine was exactly that, where they observe the gaze, state, physique, mind, and tongue of the patient. These observations allowed the doctors to determine the state of the patient's organs, gradually grasping the internal anatomy and then the outer features, namely the face, tongue, and organs. This was done through an ama.s.sing of practical experience, and the intimate connections the variety of body parts have with each other.A change in the Yinyang state of the organs, for example, would most certainly translate into an external change. As was written in "Lingshu - Benzhang Pian": "Observe external reactions- through that may you understand the organs within, and in turn, centralize the source of the illness."The first-generation miracle doctor, Bian Que, for example, was one such man who'd used 'sight' on Duke Huan of Cai, turning around and leaving after one look at the duke- it only meant that there was no saving the duke anymore, at that point. () (did some research- go to this link if youre interested in the duke)Guan Xuemin wasn't at Bian Que's level yet, but noticing Huaijun's improved state was not beyond his capabilities."So I don't need the sedative painkillers anymore?" Huaijun asked, not expecting the pleasant surprise from his mysterious captain."Of course- you won't be needing any acupuncture anymore, as well." Xuemin said. "The acupuncture I've been giving you was just to stimulate your nerves and freshen your mind a bit, softening the damage the painkillers were causing your nerves. That won't be necessary anymore- you're looking fine now, and you won't be needing me any longer……""Grandpa Guan, that's not what I meant……" Huaijun said, panicking a little. "My friend's prescription, it's……"Huaijun wasn't sure what to say! He didn't know how well Xuemin would take to his sudden transition to Lin Yi's prescription- the guy had been taking care of him all this time, after all. He hadn't even informed Xuemin beforehand, and that implied that Huaijun wasn't completely trusting of the doctor…… The person who gave him the prescription, at the same time, wasn't someone he could just reject, either!
After all, he was still closer to Lin Yi than he was to Xuemin!
"Haha, Yang, what're you panicking like that for? I'm but joyed that you found a better doctor to treat you, a miracle doctor, at that. It's true that there's no need for me to give you acupuncture anymore." Xuemin rea.s.sured, clearly understanding what Huaijun was worrying about. "And I've said it before, haven't I? I can only be fortunate to be able to meet a doctor of that calibre- I'm but an apprentice before him! You worry too much, Yang.""I see…… I guess I am……" Huaijun said, letting out a sigh of relief. "Grandpa Guan, I'll be sure to mention your wishes to my friend, but I won't be able to guarantee anything……""Of course, of course." Xuemin said with a nod. "Yang, do drop by and pay this old man a visit once in a while, even if we won't be having any sessions anymore. You've been coming by so often that it'll be a bit hard adapting to your abrupt absence.""Don't worry, Grandpa Guan- I'll drop by when I have the time." Huaijun promised.Huaijun decided to pay Lin Yi a visit as he exited the villa- he wanted to tell him of Xuemin's intentions, and inform him that he'd shared the prescription with him.It was morning when Lin Yi cooked up some fried rice from the food he'd brought back from the banquet yesterday. He left the rest of the food for Mengyao and Yushu after taking a bite himself.He then returned to his room to pack up the medicine he'd prepared for Huaijun, thinking of getting it to him today……Mengyao left Lin Yi alone today as well, surprisingly minding her own business as she ate the fried rice he'd made, her small face a little red as she put a spoon of it into her mouth. Lin Yi, on the other hand, wondered if the Miss had adjusted her plans, employing some other method of getting him fired.There'd been a little incident between the two of them before, too…… The girl had drank from a bottle he drank from, and while it mattered little to Lin Yi, it was a different case when the receiving party was a girl who'd never even had a boyfriend before……It was also why Lin Yi didn't mind Mengyao glaring at her and venting her frustrations out on him all the time. Yushu, however, was a bystander, and his relationship with her was fundamentally different because of that."Aren't you eating, Lin Yi?" Mengyao asked as she saw Lin Yi come out of his room."I've eaten, you guys help yourselves." Lin Yi said, wearing the school uniform again."Oh. Why're you wearing the uniform again, where are the clothes I bought you yesterday?" Mengyao asked with a frown- the school didn't enforce the dress code since they were all high schoolers already, and anyone with a well-off family background would go to school in their casual clothes……There were, of course, people like Tang Yin, who came from poorer family backgrounds… Yet even a school uniform wasn't enough to suppress Tang Yin's natural beauty, granting her the t.i.tle of commoner beauty- famous enough to even reach Mengyao and Yushu's ears… The girl was sharing the t.i.tle of school beauty with them, after all. Chapter 122 - Pleasantries of School Life"I think it's pretty nice, but I can change it if you don't like it?" Lin Yi said- he'd been looking forward to school life, after all, and had wanted to get as much as he could out of the whole experience.Lin Yi definitely wanted to immerse himself when it was right in front of him, devoid of the toils back home, of the danger in the battlefields, of the tension on missions…… Everything was so… peaceful- Lin Yi couldn't help but like the life he was living right now."Where's that girl from the next cla.s.s, why hasn't she walked past my window yet?""The childhood of chips, of comics, of first loves……"(lyrics from a Chinese song, just searched it up- pretty nostalgic stuff if you know the lyrics. "Tong Nian". Means childhood)Lin Yi felt that he was in a different world from the singer when he'd first heard the song- that school life was something so out of reach for him…… He'd look out his window and think: 'it'd probably be pretty nice if the school beauty from the next cla.s.s comes walking by and something happens between the two of us……'Lin Yi would then go read novels in order to relate- the ones about reincarnation, where the main characters were thrown into a nice, pleasant school life once more, like that "Pure and Pleasant Intimacies" novel this Fishman the Second guy wrote.(LOL thats this book's author!)He'd very much like to try and start a nice, innocent relationship with someone, if the Miss and the chairman didn't mind…… With Tang Yin, for example…… Or perhaps Chen Yushu- Hm? Why am I thinking about her?Lin Yi glanced at Yushu a little bit- he had to say, the girl was a beauty, with an amazing figure as well…… But the problem here was that she was the Miss' best friend… Maybe he was better off just fantasizing about it a bit…… He didn't want the Miss to go exploding on him……"Oh…… What's that have to do with me? 'If I don't like it'? Whatever, do what you want……" Mengyao said, a little frustrated at Lin Yi's words- any other boy would've been grinning with joy if she'd bought them clothes, wearing them every day… But Lin Yi……Mengyao had wanted to say: 'of course I like that one you wore yesterday', but the words got stuck in her mouth- her young mistress pride was at work once more, and she only sighed internally…… She simply wasn't as daring as Shu, who spoke her mind about everything……"Ah. I'll wear something else tomorrow then." Lin Yi smiled."Mm hmm! Yao Yao told me last night you know, she said you look really handsome in casual clothes!" Yushu added."Shu!!!" Mengyao couldn't believe it, what the h.e.l.l did this girl decide to spout at Lin Yi?! She wasn't expecting her to just throw that out on the table like that, it should be an unspoken rule that their girly chats never leave the bedroom……Lin Yi, on the other hand, was quite surprised- so even the Miss spoke her mind……They were talking when Li Fu's car pulled into the driveway. He sounded his horn, and both Yushu and Mengyao put down their chopsticks, picking their bags up before leaving through the villa door.Lin Yi looked at the leftovers on the table, and decided that he didn't have to clean it up right away- Li Fu would have someone do that in the afternoon anyway. With that in mind, he picked his bag up and left the villa as well.Chu Pengzhan wasn't with them anymore, and Lin Yi sat himself at the front. He got out of the car as Li Fu stopped at the school, and Li Fu continued driving.Yushu looked at Lin Yi walking away before turning to Mengyao. "Yao Yao, you've gotta start telling people soon!""Let me think about it a little longer….. I can't accept just having a boyfriend all of a sudden." Mengyao said, shaking her head. "It's fake, but other people don't know that……""What's the point if people know it's fake……" Yushu wasn't sure what to say.Lin Yi was walking away from the car when he heard someone call his name- it was Kang Xiaobo, running towards him with… Tang Yin behind him?The two seemed to have arrived at school in the same bus."Boss, that car just now..?" Xiaobo couldn't tell what the car was when he saw Lin Yi exit a luxury car, but he could tell that it had to be at least over a million kuai……"Ah, it's my friend's, just dropping me off……" Lin Yi said faintly- Mengyao still hadn't allowed him to reveal anything yet, after all. It was better this way: he was still looking to develop a pleasant relationship with someone special…… There'd be no developing s.h.i.t if people found out that he was the Miss' follower!!"Oh. Looks like a really grand car." Xiaobo said, a little envious. He suddenly lowered his voice as he scratched at the back of his head. "Boss, guess who was in the bus with me today…""Tang Yin?" Lin Yi asked."Ugh……" Xiaobo said, stunned. "How'd you know?""Isn't she right behind you?" Lin Yi smiled bitterly."Argh, I was so excited to tell you about it, too! You're making it sound like it's nothing!" Xiaobo said unhappily."It's not that exciting in the first place, okay…" Lin Yi said. "That girl Tang Yin's a real porcupine, anyone who crosses her path's just plain unlucky……""What did you say, Lin Yi?" Tang Yin had noticed Xiaobo the moment she got on the bus, recognizing him as Lin Yi's follower and not bothering to pay him any heed. She saw him meet up with Lin Yi after getting off the bus, however, and she started focusing on him.She saw Lin Yi get off the luxury car, too, and she wasn't very pleased with how he explained it to Xiaobo. A friend's car? The guy was just a young master from a rich house, what did he think he was doing, acting all poor in school? He was just wearing high quality casual clothes in front of a sports car yesterday, so what was he doing wearing a school uniform now…..? Hmph. Tang Yin couldn't help but despise Lin Yi- the man was so fake.Her ears perked up upon hearing Lin Yi mention her name, and she spoke up on impulse upon hearing Lin Yi badmouth her…… She started regretting it soon after. She didn't want to be involved with the guy too much, after all. Although, she had to admit that there was a manliness that Lin Yi had, and it wasn't something that could be achieved with just good looks alone, either. Manliness was a very unique appeal, and Lin Yi's manly appeal was too many times stronger than someone like Zou Ruoming's. The blossoming Tang Yin wasn't blind to that, but she understood very well that rich boys like him really only toyed with women…… She'd met too many people like that, like her childhood friend, for example……A strong sensation of sour helplessness would fill Tang Yin up every time she remembered that boyfriend who'd dumped her… That was what she got for being poor, she supposed…… She couldn't just go crying at the rich boy's door, now could she…… Would they even bother opening the door for her…..?Lin Yi didn't expect Tang Yin, who was still some distance away, to actually pay attention to what he was saying to Xiaobo… His heart skipped a beat at her words, and he turned to her with a smile on his face. "I said you're pretty……""You…!" Tang Yin's face reddened in anger as she shot a piercing glare at Lin Yi. She walked up to him and planted her foot onto his, and walked away without so much as looking at him…...
As a result, none of the boys envied Lin Yi when their G.o.ddess fell in love with him- something like that was only bound to happen, after all. It was only natural.Huaijun considered telling Xuemin about Lin Yi's prescription.

"Yang, do drop by and pay this old man a visit once in a while, even if we won't be having any sessions anymore. You've been coming by so often that it'll be a bit hard adapting to your abrupt absence.""Don't worry, Grandpa Guan- I'll drop by when I have the time." Huaijun promised.Huaijun decided to pay Lin Yi a visit as he exited the villa- he wanted to tell him of Xuemin's intentions, and inform him that he'd shared the prescription with him.It was morning when Lin Yi cooked up some fried rice from the food he'd brought back from the banquet yesterday. He left the rest of the food for Mengyao and Yushu after taking a bite himself.He then returned to his room to pack up the medicine he'd prepared for Huaijun, thinking of getting it to him today……Mengyao left Lin Yi alone today as well, surprisingly minding her own business as she ate the fried rice he'd made, her small face a little red as she put a spoon of it into her mouth. Lin Yi, on the other hand, wondered if the Miss had adjusted her plans, employing some other method of getting him fired.There'd been a little incident between the two of them before, too…… The girl had drank from a bottle he drank from, and while it mattered little to Lin Yi, it was a different case when the receiving party was a girl who'd never even had a boyfriend before……It was also why Lin Yi didn't mind Mengyao glaring at her and venting her frustrations out on him all the time. Yushu, however, was a bystander, and his relationship with her was fundamentally different because of that."Aren't you eating, Lin Yi?" Mengyao asked as she saw Lin Yi come out of his room."I've eaten, you guys help yourselves." Lin Yi said, wearing the school uniform again."Oh. Why're you wearing the uniform again, where are the clothes I bought you yesterday?" Mengyao asked with a frown- the school didn't enforce the dress code since they were all high schoolers already, and anyone with a well-off family background would go to school in their casual clothes……There were, of course, people like Tang Yin, who came from poorer family backgrounds… Yet even a school uniform wasn't enough to suppress Tang Yin's natural beauty, granting her the t.i.tle of commoner beauty- famous enough to even reach Mengyao and Yushu's ears… The girl was sharing the t.i.tle of school beauty with them, after all. Chapter 122 - Pleasantries of School Life"I think it's pretty nice, but I can change it if you don't like it?" Lin Yi said- he'd been looking forward to school life, after all, and had wanted to get as much as he could out of the whole experience.Lin Yi definitely wanted to immerse himself when it was right in front of him, devoid of the toils back home, of the danger in the battlefields, of the tension on missions…… Everything was so… peaceful- Lin Yi couldn't help but like the life he was living right now."Where's that girl from the next cla.s.s, why hasn't she walked past my window yet?""The childhood of chips, of comics, of first loves……"(lyrics from a Chinese song, just searched it up- pretty nostalgic stuff if you know the lyrics. "Tong Nian". Means childhood)Lin Yi felt that he was in a different world from the singer when he'd first heard the song- that school life was something so out of reach for him…… He'd look out his window and think: 'it'd probably be pretty nice if the school beauty from the next cla.s.s comes walking by and something happens between the two of us……'Lin Yi would then go read novels in order to relate- the ones about reincarnation, where the main characters were thrown into a nice, pleasant school life once more, like that "Pure and Pleasant Intimacies" novel this Fishman the Second guy wrote.(LOL thats this book's author!)He'd very much like to try and start a nice, innocent relationship with someone, if the Miss and the chairman didn't mind…… With Tang Yin, for example…… Or perhaps Chen Yushu- Hm? Why am I thinking about her?Lin Yi glanced at Yushu a little bit- he had to say, the girl was a beauty, with an amazing figure as well…… But the problem here was that she was the Miss' best friend… Maybe he was better off just fantasizing about it a bit…… He didn't want the Miss to go exploding on him……"Oh…… What's that have to do with me? 'If I don't like it'? Whatever, do what you want……" Mengyao said, a little frustrated at Lin Yi's words- any other boy would've been grinning with joy if she'd bought them clothes, wearing them every day… But Lin Yi……Mengyao had wanted to say: 'of course I like that one you wore yesterday', but the words got stuck in her mouth- her young mistress pride was at work once more, and she only sighed internally…… She simply wasn't as daring as Shu, who spoke her mind about everything……"Ah. I'll wear something else tomorrow then." Lin Yi smiled."Mm hmm! Yao Yao told me last night you know, she said you look really handsome in casual clothes!" Yushu added."Shu!!!" Mengyao couldn't believe it, what the h.e.l.l did this girl decide to spout at Lin Yi?! She wasn't expecting her to just throw that out on the table like that, it should be an unspoken rule that their girly chats never leave the bedroom……Lin Yi, on the other hand, was quite surprised- so even the Miss spoke her mind……They were talking when Li Fu's car pulled into the driveway. He sounded his horn, and both Yushu and Mengyao put down their chopsticks, picking their bags up before leaving through the villa door.Lin Yi looked at the leftovers on the table, and decided that he didn't have to clean it up right away- Li Fu would have someone do that in the afternoon anyway. With that in mind, he picked his bag up and left the villa as well.Chu Pengzhan wasn't with them anymore, and Lin Yi sat himself at the front. He got out of the car as Li Fu stopped at the school, and Li Fu continued driving.Yushu looked at Lin Yi walking away before turning to Mengyao. "Yao Yao, you've gotta start telling people soon!""Let me think about it a little longer….. I can't accept just having a boyfriend all of a sudden." Mengyao said, shaking her head. "It's fake, but other people don't know that……""What's the point if people know it's fake……" Yushu wasn't sure what to say.Lin Yi was walking away from the car when he heard someone call his name- it was Kang Xiaobo, running towards him with… Tang Yin behind him?The two seemed to have arrived at school in the same bus."Boss, that car just now..?" Xiaobo couldn't tell what the car was when he saw Lin Yi exit a luxury car, but he could tell that it had to be at least over a million kuai……"Ah, it's my friend's, just dropping me off……" Lin Yi said faintly- Mengyao still hadn't allowed him to reveal anything yet, after all. It was better this way: he was still looking to develop a pleasant relationship with someone special…… There'd be no developing s.h.i.t if people found out that he was the Miss' follower!!"Oh. Looks like a really grand car." Xiaobo said, a little envious. He suddenly lowered his voice as he scratched at the back of his head. "Boss, guess who was in the bus with me today…""Tang Yin?" Lin Yi asked."Ugh……" Xiaobo said, stunned. "How'd you know?""Isn't she right behind you?" Lin Yi smiled bitterly."Argh, I was so excited to tell you about it, too! You're making it sound like it's nothing!" Xiaobo said unhappily."It's not that exciting in the first place, okay…" Lin Yi said. "That girl Tang Yin's a real porcupine, anyone who crosses her path's just plain unlucky……""What did you say, Lin Yi?" Tang Yin had noticed Xiaobo the moment she got on the bus, recognizing him as Lin Yi's follower and not bothering to pay him any heed. She saw him meet up with Lin Yi after getting off the bus, however, and she started focusing on him.She saw Lin Yi get off the luxury car, too, and she wasn't very pleased with how he explained it to Xiaobo. A friend's car? The guy was just a young master from a rich house, what did he think he was doing, acting all poor in school? He was just wearing high quality casual clothes in front of a sports car yesterday, so what was he doing wearing a school uniform now…..? Hmph. Tang Yin couldn't help but despise Lin Yi- the man was so fake.Her ears perked up upon hearing Lin Yi mention her name, and she spoke up on impulse upon hearing Lin Yi badmouth her…… She started regretting it soon after. She didn't want to be involved with the guy too much, after all. Although, she had to admit that there was a manliness that Lin Yi had, and it wasn't something that could be achieved with just good looks alone, either. Manliness was a very unique appeal, and Lin Yi's manly appeal was too many times stronger than someone like Zou Ruoming's. The blossoming Tang Yin wasn't blind to that, but she understood very well that rich boys like him really only toyed with women…… She'd met too many people like that, like her childhood friend, for example……A strong sensation of sour helplessness would fill Tang Yin up every time she remembered that boyfriend who'd dumped her… That was what she got for being poor, she supposed…… She couldn't just go crying at the rich boy's door, now could she…… Would they even bother opening the door for her…..?Lin Yi didn't expect Tang Yin, who was still some distance away, to actually pay attention to what he was saying to Xiaobo… His heart skipped a beat at her words, and he turned to her with a smile on his face. "I said you're pretty……""You…!" Tang Yin's face reddened in anger as she shot a piercing glare at Lin Yi. She walked up to him and planted her foot onto his, and walked away without so much as looking at him…...
