Beauty and the Bodyguard

Chapter 1165 – Dumbass or Genius?

The slap landed, and Yufeng only felt pure joy! He was right. The old man was hiding his strength! He was doing the same thing he was!

At that thought, he started throwing hit after hit at the man!

He didn’t need to use qi to punish this old shit! He was stronger than him with qi, but without qi, he was younger and stronger! This was his advantage!

He started aggressively punching him down!

Chen Xi didn’t expect that this guy would just start beating someone up all of a sudden!

Seeing Lin Yi not look surprised nor happy, Chen Xi’s expression changed into worry. “Big brother, you know that person, right. Can you ask him to stop hitting Grandpa Zhu…”

“He might not listen to me… Your grandpa Zhu said he was going to slap him, and he caused the trouble, I can’t do anything…” Lin Yi said helplessly. “But from what I can see, your grandpa Zhu has a trump card. He wouldn’t get hurt, don’t worry!”

“Ah?” Chen Xi didn’t understand what Lin Yi was saying, but he was right about one thing, Grandpa Zhu was the one causing trouble first?

Grandpa Zhu almost spat blood. If this guy didn’t just pop out, he would’ve slapped this young shit already! Why’d he show up??

But he couldn’t say anything, and he endured as Yufeng’s fists rained down on his face!

But he realized something. Yufeng didn’t seem to be using qi?

If this were because Yufeng didn’t want to hurt him too much because he saw him hide his qi, he would never believe it! This wasn’t Yufeng at all, that’s not the person he was! The only reason must be that he was hiding his qi in front of Lin Yi as well!

At that thought, Grandpa Zhu calmed down. This meant that all these injuries would be small bruises. His bones and essential stuff wouldn’t get hurt. He’d wait until Lin Yi left before he exacted his revenge!

Xie Yufeng, right? Grandpa Zhu swore that he would beat this guy into the hospital. Otherwise he’d change his name! Although, killing him wasn’t something he dared to do, since the guy was still of the common world’s noble house Yu, after all. What if it caused trouble for the head of his house?

Lin Yi wanted to use Yufeng to test this Grandpa Zhu, as well. He didn’t expect that he wouldn’t even fight back, so this meant that he was trying to hide his strength in front of him! Something was up!

After all, when Lin Yi came over to talk, it was still understandable that he would put away his qi- but now it was clear that he didn’t want Lin Yi to know!

“Chen Xi, how’s your mother?” Lin Yi turned to Chen Xi.

“After taking the medicine, she’s a lot better now…” Chen Xi’s face looked happy now that they brought up her mom- she was recovering now, and that was all she wanted. “Thank you, big brother, Lin YI!”

“Ha… It’s nothing.” Lin Yi said as he looked at that Grandpa Zhu. He couldn’t ask too many questions to Chen Xi in front of him. He had to wait for now.

Xiaoxiao saw Chen Xi as well and ran over to her, who waved back. “Big sis Xiaoxiao…”

After greeting each other, Chen Xi turned her eyes back to Yufeng and Grandpa Zhu. Yufeng was still not letting the old man go, continuing beating on him. He’d spent too long getting beat up by other people who were weaker than him!

Now it was time! This old man was trying to hide his strength too. He wondered how he felt now that someone weaker than him was beating him up!

It didn’t matter what he felt. What was important was that Yufeng was having the time of his life! He felt like he’d achieved something great, like the dam containing his rage had burst! Now he’d reversed the roles!

This old man was probably feeling the same frustration he felt all those times when he couldn’t use his strength! Wahahaha! Yufeng started getting more excited as he dumped all his rage onto the old man.

“Let’s go, Xiaoxiao.” Lin Yi didn’t want to stay- it didn’t matter who he was, but the old man had no hostility towards Chen Xi at the moment, so he didn’t need to worry.

Although, he was sure that the tables would turn instantly right after he left. Yufeng would be the one getting beat up!

“Lin Yi, why don’t you stop Xie Yufeng?” Xiaoxiao blinked, not expecting Lin Yi to just leave without doing anything.

“Come on, let’s go.” Lin Yi gave Xiaoxiao a look and quickly pulled her away.

She didn’t know what he was thinking, but it had to be intentional. And so she looked at Chen Xi and left with Lin Yi.

On the other side, Mengyao, Yushu, and Tang Yin were watching angrily at Yufeng beating up an old man. What confused them, however, was the fact that Lin Yi wasn’t doing anything!

Mengyao was about to say something, but Yushu looked at the old man before looking at Yufeng, grabbing Mengyao by the hand. “Yao Yao, Shield Bro’s in the car already, let’s go! I wanna go home!”

Tang Yun wanted to say something as well, but seeing Xiaoxiao stay silent made her hold it back.

Only after Lin Yi started the car did Xiaoxiao finally speak up her mind. “Lin Yi honey, why did you let that Xie Yufeng beat the old guy up?”

“Did I? If Xie Yufeng actually wanted to beat him up, the old man would be dead already.” Lin Yi smiled.

Xiaoxiao blinked, not understanding. Yushu, however, slapped her forehead. “I know- that old man is a master practitioner too! But he’s trying to hide his strength in front of Shield Bro!”

Lin Yi looked at her in surprise. He couldn’t believe she got it right.

Shu had to be the smartest among these girls- sometimes she seemed like a dumbass, but Lin Yi felt that she used that to mask herself. Or, maybe she just wanted to be this little silly girl instead of a calculating genius girl,
