Chapter 163 - Lin Yi's Golden Finger
Mengyao wasn't an idiot- she'd thought that the exquisite man was here to take advantage of her, but after hearing the conversation between Lin Yi and the exquisite man, she understood that these people were here for her.
"Miss Chu, I have to be responsible for your safety." Lin Yi said solemnly, a complete change from his usual carefree attitude. "I'll only be at ease if Faubert brings you back safely."
"But … …" Mengyao wasn't expecting Lin Yi to reject her so mercilessly after she'd apologized to himself- she felt a little embarrassed. This was the first time she'd lowered her head to him, and yet he … …
Mengyao was a little pissed off, but she knew that Lin Yi was doing this for her and Shu's safety. She stomped her foot on the ground, but didn't say anything to make fun of Lin Yi.
Mengyao would've been pissed off if it'd been any other time. She'd already lowered her head and apologized, what more did he want? Besides, it was all because of you- if it weren't for the fact that you were flirting with an aunty, would I even need a male escort?
In Mengyao's eyes, Sun Jingyi had turned into an aunty.
Lin Yi had already called Faubert and told him the location, and Faubert said that he'd head over immediately.
Yushu stuck her tongue out. "Shield Bro, it's actually my and Yao Yao's first time at a bar … …"
"Ah, there's something wrong with this bar- let's go to another one next time." Lin Yi nodded, not saying anything. It was normal for Mengyao and Yushu to come to a bar- it was rare for rich girls like them to come to a bar for the first time. Lin Yi was speechless about their weird behavior of calling a male escort over.
In actuality, both Mengyao and Yushu weren't bad people on the inside. Miss Chu had a bit of pride and self-esteem, cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Miss Chen was a troublemaker, but she was also very easygoing.
After spending so much time with them, Lin Yi no longer felt conflicted and had to deal with them.
Yushu blinked in surprise, blinking her eyes. "Shield Bro, you're not mad?" "You can come back again next time, as if he wasn't mad at all?" Lin Yi asked.
"Why should I be angry?" Lin Yi smiled and said, "You two go back and rest early. I still have something to take care of, so I might go back very late. Don't wait for me."
"Oh. Be careful then." Yushu nodded.
Mengyao looked at Lin Yi and Yushu chatting casually, feeling a little bad in her heart. Why was it that Shu and Yushu's relationship was so harmonious, but there seemed to be something between her and Lin Yi?
However, what did it matter whether he got along with her or not? He was the follower her dad hired, and even if they didn't get along, he still had to listen to her. Why should she feel bad?
Faubert came very quickly, and he wasn't alone. There were a few people behind him, and it was obvious that they were all martial artists, but they were all physical practitioners. They weren't very strong, but they were enough to deal with normal people, but they weren't a match for that exquisite guy.
"Mister Lin, sorry for the trouble." Faubert nodded to Lin Yi, "Aren't you coming with us?"
"I still have something to do here." Lin Yi said, "Faubert, you can leave with them first. I'll talk to Uncle Chu about this when I have time."
"Okay." Faubert didn't say anything else and left the bar with Mengyao and Yushu. In fact, he understood that Lin Yi wouldn't have asked him to leave with Mengyao and Yushu if it wasn't something urgent. It was better for him to go back with them himself.
Lin Yi was obviously in trouble, and Faubert couldn't ask if he didn't want to talk about it.
Lin Yi watched Faubert and Mengyao leave the bar before standing up and walking in the direction the exquisite guy went. He passed the bar counter and saw the exquisite guy and an average-looking man waiting there.
"Mister Lin, I'm the manager of the bar, Su Jiaonang. I'm very sorry about what happened earlier …" The average-looking man said when he saw Lin Yi.
"Cut the bullshit. Where's Cihua?" Lin Yi cut him off. Lin Yi didn't want to listen to bullshit like that.
Jiaonang's face reddened a little at Lin Yi's interruption, but he recovered quickly. "Please follow me, Mister Lin."
The person in front of him was someone the boss wanted to hire, and Li Yao, the exquisite guy, had said that Lin Yi wasn't any weaker than him. Jiaonang didn't dare act rashly either.
Lin Yi followed Jiaonang and Li Yao to an office, and Jiaonang knocked on the door. Cihua's voice came from within. "Come in."
Jiaonang opened the door and made a welcoming gesture. "Please come in, Mister Lin. The boss is waiting for you inside."
Lin Yi walked in, and saw a man with a big belly sitting in the room. Behind him was a skinny man who looked like a skeleton. He looked very average-looking, and no one would take a second look at him. He'd be lost in a crowd.
But Lin Yi's expression froze. The energy waves coming from this skeletal man had already surpassed his own … It seemed like he was at the peak of the late phase of the golden class …
"Jiao Lao, I can feel the energy waves coming from them. Can they feel the energy waves coming from me?" Lin Yi suddenly thought of an important question- was this feeling mutual?
"I don't think so." Jiao Lao said faintly. "The way he absorbs energy is different from you- it's called pure qi. Every type of training produces a different type of pure qi, and it can only be used by oneself. It can't be passed on to others. The energy in your body is universal … "
"I understand now. That means that the energy in my body can be converted into the pure qi he needs. Is that right?" Lin Yi asked.
"That's the theory." Jiao Lao said with a tone that said that the boy was worth teaching. "That's why you can feel him, but he can't feel you."
Lin Yi was pleasantly surprised at the answer he was satisfied- it seemed like he could play the pig and eat the tiger from now on- he could see through the strength of others, but others couldn't see through him … It was like a cheat, running for his life when he saw that the opponent was too strong for him to win.
Lin Yi's gaze lingered on the skeletal man for only a split second, and the man smiled faintly at Lin Yi. As far as he could see, Lin Yi was only at the peak of the early phase of the golden class. Normally speaking, Lin Yi wouldn't be able to see through his strength when he'd concealed his aura.
