Do I look like the same kind of person he is? Lin Yi was a bit displeased as he pointed at Scarface- he always paid for his meals, except when someone else was buying!

Of course not, of course not. The stall owners face tensed up, not expecting for his ass-kissing to yield the opposite effect- this bit of money was nothing to the guy, he didnt need him to be treating him at all! Alright, let me see.

He weighed the skewer sticks quickly- there were around a hundred of them. Around a hundred of them Its fifty kuai.

Pay up. Lin Yi said as he looked at Jingyi.

Jingyi blinked- Lin Yi looked as if he were about to pay, too..?

The stall owner, on the other hand, didnt know what to say- so it wasnt him paying for this meal? He didnt have to let his friend pay the stall owner even offered to treat them…

Jinyi took her wallet out and handed the stall owner a fifty kuai bill, giving Lin Yi a glare before walking away with him.

Scarface wasnt too respectful or admiring towards Lin Yi- this dude was living off of his woman, so why did he think he was hot stuff? What the hell

Yet this was a man even Zou Ruoming dared not cross, and Scarface no longer had any intention of doing so, either.

Ruoming turned to Scarface after Lin Yi had left, his expression darkening. Look at what youve done! Fuck, almost got sent back to the hospital again!

Whats wrong.. Scarface was taken aback by how wary of Lin Yi his boss was- he looked like he was scared of him! Guang Bro, is this kid that good?

Good? Who do you think did this to my hands? Ruoming said as he waved his bandaged-up hands in front of Scarface. He was the one who twisted them out of shape! The mans insane, you shouldnt even think about pissing him off! And dont even get me started on his skills- hes a fucking monster, numbers dont matter against him!

Ah!! Hes that scary? Scarface froze- was Lin Yi one of those legendary Wulin masters hed heard about?

Stop embarrassing yourself and get going! Ruoguang said, a little frustrated. Open your eyes next time, make sure you see who youre dealing with. Avoid people like him, theyre lunatics!

Yes, Guang Bro! Scarface was quite troubled too- how was he supposed to know that the kid would be this powerful? Why would he ever go piss him off for if hed known?

He should never have tried to hit on that girl in the first place it was all because of his perverted urges.

Jingyi eyed Lin Yi with a glare again after getting in the car. You werent not the one paying, so whyd you reject the boss offer for me?

Small stall owners like that dont earn a lot. Lin Yi explained. Fifty kuai? Thats about the production cost right there .

Hm? Jingyi paused- she hadnt thought about it too much earlier, but Lin Yi was right. After all, whod live a life working under the sun like that if they had money? Jingyi found herself to be reevaluating Lin Yi.

Lin Yi had actually thought of Tang Yin and her family- he didnt want to take advantage of the stall owner like that.

As for the whole protection money thing with Scarface That wasnt something he should interfere with. Everyone had their own lives to live, and Lin Yi couldnt possibly meddle in all of them.

Where are you going, dear? Jingyi asked with a gentle gaze as she backed the car out of the parking spot.

Dear? Lin Yi froze. Whore you talking to?

You. Youre my lover now- half lovers, but still lovers! Of course Im allowed to call you that. Jinyi said with a soft smile on her face. Whats wrong? Is being with an older woman making you shy?

…….. Lin Yi didnt know what to say to that- this girl seemed pretty open-minded, but that shouldnt be it She wouldn’t have rejected that chairman otherwise. But why him? Did he have a gullible face or something? Was he an easy target to bully? Or did she think he wouldnt do anything to her?

Im telling you, youre playing with fire here! Someday I might start taking this seriously and fall for you! Lin Yi warned.

Thatd be nice, wouldnt it? Big sis heres looking forward to that, we might start liking each other if this goes on! Jingyi said with a grin, as if Lin Yis words havent affected her in the slightest.

Bring me back to that place you picked me up from earlier. Lin Yi rolled his eyes and ignored her.

Songshans First School? Jingyi found it odd. Whyre you going back there?

Whyre you asking so many questions? Lin Yi frowned. Maybe I shouldnt help you tonight?

Pfft, were lovers already! Youve taken the reward, so dont think you can be using threats like that. Jingyi said with a shrug.

Come get me at the same place tonight! I finish this job for you and were done with each o ther! Lin Yi didnt want to be spending too much time with this girl- she was pretty, and had that mature air about her that neither Tang Yin, Mengyao, n or Yushu had But Lin Yis gut was telling him that this woman was simply too much trouble! Itd b ring an endless stream of trouble if he associated with her!

Today he had to be some Grand Thief for her What if tomorrow she asked him to be an assassin? It might very well be possible- Lin Yi could deduce just from looking at Wu Chentian that Sun Jingyi didnt come from a simple family.

She wouldnt be that closely connected with the Wu House otherwise. He didnt know why she wasnt using her familys influence to settle the matter, but princesses like her only caused trouble- Lin Yi didnt want to be serving as her professional trouble-dealer at all.

Hey, what?! How could you! Youre not gonna take responsibility?? Jingyi looked at Lin Yi resentfully.

Lovers but not married, so we can break up whenever. Lin Yi said faintly. Im just telling you this now- you wont be my lover after Ive dumped you.

…….. Jingyi stared at Lin Yi in disbelief- a beauty like her, right in front of him Yet did he feel nothing..? There were plenty of people lining up for the chance to chase her!! Even if they werent a real couple, itd be a pretty honorable and pleasant experience to go along with this love affair with her! Itd get people envious, too.

Youre really not interested in me? Jingyi couldnt hold the question in.

I am. Lin Yi answered crisply.

Huh? Jingyi was certain that Lin Yi would respond with a no, but his answer threw her off- she was both surprised and curious. And youre still dumping me?

Youre too much trouble. You wanted me to thieve for you today, who knows what else you have waiting for me. I dont have that much time. I t was impossible for Lin Yi to not have any interest in Jingyi- of course hed have interest in pretty ladies. Like Mengyao, for example, or Yushu Hm. There was that important aspect when looking at a girl- the level of troublesomeness she had. Girls like Song Lingshan, for instance would be best left alone for now.
