“So, is that a ‘yes’ or ‘no’?” Wang Jiarui asked in a coquettish manner.
While feeling his heart beating like a jackhammer, Lin Huai cursed himself deep down. What the heck is going on? You used to look down upon those silly fans, yet you’ve become one of them now. However, Lin Huai soon regained his composure and shook his head, saying, “Well, I don’t think I’m available for a new job at the moment because I still have some unfinished business to deal with.”
“Alright then, I can wait anyway. You have my contact, don’t you? So, we’ll keep in touch. If the culprit has yet to be found by the time you’re done with your business, come and be my bodyguard. I’ll double your pay.”
“Come on. You’re my idol. I could make an exception,” Lin Huai said with a smile.
“No way. If that was the case, I wouldn’t have to pay a single cent if I dined at a restaurant owned by my fan or bought a purse from my fan’s shop.” Wang Jiarui smiled and said, “
As it was getting darker, Li Zhi finally came into the office with two goons who stirred up trouble on Lin Huai’s turf. Although one of them towered over the other, they both showed a similar stuck-up expression, as if they had nothing to fear. While the taller guy had a hideous appearance, the shorty had a cut on his forehead with blood trickling down his face. Nonetheless, his eyes were filled with violence and savagery.On the other hand, Lin Huai was initially going through some journals, but when he saw Li Zhi with the two goons, he immediately laid down his journals and smiled at them. “Release them because I’m sure we don’t want to frighten our ‘guests’. Even a prisoner on death row gets to have his last meal.” Li Zhi was stunned by Lin Huai’s reply, but still he did as he was told and instructed his men to release the two goons. Needless to say, the two of them didn’t even try to escape even though they were now free from restraint. After all, they were on Lin H
Jiang Ba’s eyes were now filled with nothing else but murderous intent. He wouldn’t hold back against anyone who stood in his way, including Lin Huai, even if it had to cost his life. As he saw Lin Huai coming his way, Jiang Ba eerily smiled and said, “I’ll take you down now. If the worst comes to the worst, I’ll just leave Chengbei District forever!”When he finished his words, he sprang forward and swung his dual blades at Lin Huai. While witnessing his superb speed and strength, everyone was amazed at this man’s skills, especially now that they had already seen what Jiang Ba was capable of with his dual blades. Perhaps even Gong Zhenglong wouldn’t have dared to take Jiang Ba head on.On the other hand, Wang Zhengyang was planning to advise Lin Huai to take cover while seeking the right opportunity to strike together. Nonetheless, Lin Huai didn’t flinch as he thought, but instead rushed to battle Jiang Ba, which was much to his surprise. The next moment t
Wu Shanhe nodded and said in a serious manner, “Yes, I want to serve you.” In response, Lin Huai asked with a smile, “Why?”“That’s because I no longer have a place in Yulan College.” Wu Shanhe let out a sigh and continued to say, “You’re now the boss in Yulan College. I also heard you’ve made quite a name for yourself around our school. Because of that, I can no longer grow an influence of my own. So, I don’t know what else I can do besides serving you.”“Haven’t you thought about attending school and finding a job when you graduate?” Lin Huai asked.Wu Shanhe shook his head, saying, “I could go down that path, but there is something else I want even more badly. Every time I think about fighting, I can sense a burning desire taking over my body.”Upon hearing his reply, Lin Huai only responded with a sigh. In fact, he didn’t want to involve too many of those around him into his underground affairs. After all, he wasn’t planning to
Wang Jiarui turned around in place and unknowingly drew a lot of attention. Then, she quickly rushed to Lin Huai and ran along with him, leaving the latter in confusion. “Why are we running?”Wang Jiarui chuckled and said, “I’m worried that the people would recognize me. Haha! This is interesting.” In response, Lin Huai speechlessly shook his head. I can’t believe a big star would get so happy over something so trivial. Her life is far different from what I expected. Now that I recall about the stories Wang Jiarui told me during the meal, it really pains me to see her go through the struggle every now and then.Wang Jiarui asked in a coquettish manner, “What’s on your mind?” Lin Huai smiled and said in response, “Nothing much. I’m just thinking about hanging out with you these two days.”“Haha. That’s my man. I’m going to get you two set of clothes, which I’ll personally pick for you to reward your service. So, you need to trust my taste, and I
Lin Huai accidentally leaned forward and fell toward Wang Jiarui, causing the latter to fall backward. However, the man quickly reacted and got hold of her, catching her tightly in his arms with their lips just inches away from each other.Oh dear! I really didn’t mean it! Lin Huai’s heart was beating like crazy as he had some other thoughts to himself deep down. If I had really done this on purpose, I would have made sure not to miss her lips. But darn it! How come I couldn’t reach her lips? It’s just so close, yet so far!With the lady in his arm, they found their faces nearly touching each other. Soon, Wang Jiarui’s cheeks blushed in shyness, while her eyes were filled with bashful sentiment. As their eyes met, their hearts pounded even faster than before. After that, Lin Huai swallowed his saliva and thought to himself. I’m so close to her lips. Should I pretend to fall and kiss her? No way! I can’t do that because I’m a decent man. More importantly, th
Lin Huai smiled and said, “Uncle Li, is this your wife?” However, Li Tongchuan was annoyed hearing that. Putting on an unhappy face, he said, “Hold it right there. You’re not qualified to call me uncle yet.”Lin Huai responded with a smile and said, “Oh, but I know your son, Li Muhua, which is why I called you uncle. If you don’t think that’s how I should address you, I could do as you wish.” Lin Huai’s reply took Li Tongchuan aback, as the latter asked, “You know Muhua?”The woman beside Li Tongchuan appeared to be surprised as well. Upon observing their expressions, Lin Huai was able to see through their uneasiness and guess the reason behind it. He then smiled and said, “If Uncle Li insists on buying this dress, I could give it up, but I’ll have to call Li Muhua and tell him about that. I could do him the favor, but he has to know about it.”“Never mind.” Li Tongchuan’s expression darkened, as he coldly replied, “I guess I’m too old to keep
After the movie, Lin Huai gave Wang Jiarui a ride home and headed back to his place to pick up Li Liner before going to the bar. On their way there, Li Liner said, “Actually, you don’t have to be my driver every day. If you’re busy, I could always take a cab myself.”Lin Huai said with a smile, “Come on. Having me as your driver is probably much safer than taking a cab by yourself, isn’t it? Well, I wouldn’t mind if you take a cab to the bar, but it’s usually midnight by the time you’re done with your work, which makes it less safe for you to go home by yourself.” In response, Li Liner bit her lips and replied, “Brother Huai, you’re so kind to me. I don’t know how I can repay your kindness.”“Haha. Repay my kindness? I thought you already did,” Lin Huai answered in an ambiguous manner, to which Li Liner chuckled bashfully, “Then, let me repay your kindness again tonight.”“Okay.” Lin Huai agreed to her offer. Upon arrival, Lin Huai thought he m
After having a good time, Lin Huai lay in bed and lit up a cigarette while Li Qianqian rested her head on his chest. She then bashfully said, “All you know is just bullying me.”“Hey, I pulled my weight around too during our bed dance. Come on, give me some credit for that.”“Haha. What a naughty boy! You’re the only audacious person I know who still tries to talk his way out even though he is at fault.” Li Qianqian added, “By the way, there’s something I want to talk to you about.”“Oh, what’s it?”“Is there something big going down with the Thunder Gang soon?” Her question left Lin Huai’s eyes wide open as the latter asked with a smile, “How did you know about that? Did you hear it from Wei Sihai?”While Li Qianqian gazed at Lin Huai with a surprised look, the man smiled and said, “You must be wondering why I’d mention Wei Sihai, right? It’s actually simple because Wei Sihai is behind the chaotic situation in Yulan C
