"Fuu …"
"Phew …"
Lin Yi laid on the bed in the hotel room and let out a long breath.
He thought that he would be able to face House Yu calmly. In fact, Lin Yi tried his best to stay calm. But after he calmed down, he couldn't help but think of that beautiful face and her sad eyes.
Ning, are you okay?
Lin Yi shook his head in self-mockery. It was all in the past. Why was he still holding a grudge against her?
Did he leave because he thought that his identity was not good enough for her? Or was it because he couldn't give her a stable life? Or was it because he was young and didn't want to be restrained by love and family? Or was it because he found out about her secret and chose to escape?
Lin Yi didn't know. He couldn't explain it either. His state of mind then was completely different from his current state of mind.
Back then, he was nervous all the time. But now, he was relaxed.
Lin Yi got up from the bed and went to the bathroom. He turned on the shower and walked in. He felt much more refreshed.
He silently channeled the Art of Dragon Mastery. Golden class mid phase made Lin Yi smile.
Last night, he recovered to golden class mid phase. The speed was fast. But this wasn't something to be happy about. The closer he got to his original strength, the slower the progress.
In fact, Lin Yi recovered to golden class mid phase in the first half of the night. There was no progress in the second half.
After taking a shower, Lin Yi dried his hair and looked at his phone. There were two missed calls. He thought that it was Tang Yin, but it wasn't.
One was Xiaoxiao, and the other was Kang Xiaobo.
Lin Yi called Kang Xiaobo first. Kang Xiaobo picked up quickly. "Boss, why didn't you pick up?"
"I took a shower. What's the matter?" Lin Yi asked.
"Boss, did you get into an argument with sis-in-law Tang Yin?" Kang Xiaobo asked.
"No, why?" Lin Yi paused. It shouldn't be an argument, right? He just stood her up. Tang Yin wouldn't be that petty, right?
"I saw sis-in-law Tang Yin's eyes were red as if she cried the whole night!" Kang Xiaobo said. "Did something happen to her family?"
"Her family?" Lin Yi paused, thinking that it was possible. Maybe Tang Yun's family was in trouble, and he didn't know Mr. and Mrs. Tang's phone numbers, so he didn't know how to contact Tang Yun! This lass even turned off her phone. It was really worrying. So he said, "Help me ask her or Liu Xinwen tomorrow, and then give me a call back."
Since Tang Yin could still go to school, it shouldn't be a big problem. But Kang Xiaobo said that Tang Yin cried the whole night. Her eyes were red, and it made Lin Yi's heart ache. He wasn't someone who was good at expressing his emotions. Other than training, he was on missions. The only family he had was his master and his old man, but they were very strict.
"Okay, I'll ask now. I have Liu Xinwen's number," Kang Xiaobo agreed.
After hanging up the call with Kang Xiaobo, Lin Yi called Xiaoxiao back. "What's up?"
"I helped you so much today. Aren't you going to thank me?" Xiaoxiao giggled.
"I'm busy. If there's nothing else, I'll hang up," Lin Yi was waiting for Kang Xiaobo's call. He didn't want to waste time with Xiaoxiao.
"Hey! What do you mean? He doesn't want it anymore after using it? "Xiaoxiao was panicking, accusing Lin Yi of being unreasonable.
Use it? Throw it away? Lin Yi was speechless. Wasn't that a little too ambiguous? What did she mean by throw it away? It sounded like he did something to her.
"Then how do you want to thank me?" Lin Yi could only ask.
"Treat me to a feast. I want to eat good food!" Xiaoxiao said.
"I can't afford seafood. Beef noodles, then. You don't have to eat if you don't like it," Lin Yi said faintly.
"Oh … Okay," Xiaoxiao nodded casually. "It doesn't matter what we eat. The important thing is who we eat with."
"…" Lin Yi was speechless. He didn't know what was wrong with Xiaoxiao's brain. She was either hinting at him or confessing! Lin Yi didn't believe that this girl would fall for him after teaching her a few lessons. Wasn't she a masochist?
Not long after, Kang Xiaobo called back. "Boss, did you break up with Tang Yun? Why did Liu Xinwen say that you're ungrateful and don't want Tang Yun anymore? "
"Wha?" Lin Yi blinked. "Don't want Tang Yun anymore? Broke up? When did that happen? "
"You don't know?" Kang Xiaobo blinked as well.
"I've been in Yanjing the whole time. How would I know?" Lin Yi smiled bitterly. "Liu Xinwen didn't lie to you, right?"
"I don't know. Who knows what happened? I called and Liu Xinwen started yelling at me. She told me to tell you that Tang Yun doesn't want to be with you. You don't want her anymore. There's a lot of people waiting in line for you!" Xiaobo was quite troubled as well- it was a wasted call. "I'll ask Fen what's going on tomorrow."
"Alright, help me ask her tomorrow." Lin Yi frowned. Was there some misunderstanding? Tang Yun wasn't that petty. She thought that he didn't want her anymore just because he stood her up once, right?
Less than a minute after he hung up on Kang Xiaobo, Xiaoxiao called again. "Lin Yi, why did you hang up on me? Is this how you treat pretty girls? "
Xiaoxiao was really pissed. Why? What right did Lin Yi have to ignore her? She wanted him to treat her to a meal, but he didn't even want to. It was as if she really wanted that meal?
"Is Uncle Feng back yet?" Lin Yi didn't linger on the topic of Xiaoxiao. If he did, there'd be no end to it. He just changed the topic. This was something he learned from Yushu.
"No. What, you're in a hurry to see your father-in-law?" Xiaoxiao teased.
Lin Yi didn't expect Xiaoxiao to bring the topic back with just one sentence. He couldn't help but admire Xiaoxiao. This girl was quite a match for Yushu. One acted dumb, and the other acted like an oddball. Neither of them were easy to deal with.
"Then call me when Uncle Feng comes back. I'm going to sleep." Lin Yi was about to hang up.
"Hey, wait. When are you going to treat me to beef noodles? I want a big bowl with meat! "Xiaoxiao said.
