Chapter 359 – Getting Beat Up For Nothing

But Lin Yi didnt know that Jianwen and Cihua knew each other, or that they were meeting tonight- he only planned for Jianwen and Taizao to get disabled by Cihuas men, if not killed.

After all, someone like Li Cihua wouldnt react well to someone busting his nose.

Master An- I can only apologize for what happened, I hope you dont mind. But I myself am not too much better off! Cihua pointed at his face with a shrug. The man backing him up was strong, but so was House An. There was Taizaos Su family, as well- there was no reason for revenge whatsoever, as things stood, nor was there anything to even avenge. They still planned to work together, after all, and it was Lin Yi who started everything in the first place.

Its alright! Jianwen waved his hand- he wasnt that petty a man. He couldnt blame Cihua for what had happened, too, it was that distasteful Lin Yis fault.

Taizao, on the other hand, was still pretty pissed off. Even if it were Lin Yi who started everything the guy shouldnt have sent his men on them without clearing things up first! Hed never heard of the name Li Cihua, either- how was he supposed to know who the hell he was?

Jianwen was letting things go, however- he decided to just sit down on the side, irritated. His face was all swollen up, but fortunately for him the injuries werent too severe.

Snow, Rose! Go give Master Su some company. Cihua motioned for the two star girls after noticing Taizaos displeasure.

Snow and Rose were smart enough to understand that this man was a somebody, even with that swollen pig face- he was on the same level as Li Cihua, after all!

As swollen up his face was, the guy had come in the room a handsome man- providing him company wasnt a bad trade at all.

Master Su The two girls moved in and surrounded Taizao, dissipating the anger left in him completely.

He wasnt the type of person who kept a grudge- his goal for coming to this room in the first place was to get the twins, after all, and now that hed reached that goal he was no longer in a humiliating situation.

Taizao, naturally, wouldnt dwell on the misunderstanding any further, especially when Cihua had publicly given him respect. Satisfied, he went into the resting room with the two girls in his arms.

Cihua smiled faintly, evidently aware of Taizaos thought process.

But he wasnt interested in him at all- An Jianwen was the one who could bring him benefit.

Master An, pardon me for asking, but why were you treating Lin Yi to dinner? Are you friends with him? Cihua felt like he should understand the relationship between Jianwen and Lin Yi, before all else. Jianwen looked very pissed off after Lin Yis little trick, but that was all on the surface- who knew how deep their relationship went?

Jianwan was now a potential partner, and him being friends with Lin Yi would unfortunately make that partnership impossible.

Friend? Jianwen smiled coldly. More like love rivals.

Oh? Cihua narrowed his eyes- hed learned something interesting here. Thats why- I was wondering why hed do this to you!

Ive underestimated that kids intelligence- apparently hes known about my ill intentions from the start, setting me up for a counterattack! Jianwen said angrily. Cihua Bro, about you and Lin Yi

Lin Yi is Chu Mengyaos bodyguard- we were planning on kidnapping Chu Mengyao to achieve something when he intervened and ruined our plans. Cihua said briefly, naturally unwilling to let loose such embarrassing information about his loss of his golden masters. Now that those plans were no longer in continuation, there was no longer any reason for him to bother Mengyao, especially so after Gubang lost his position against Pengzhan.

His revenge against Lin Yi, however, was non-negotiable.

Oh? He really is her bodyguard? Jianwen paused. Hed had his suspicions before, but if Lin Yi really was a bodyguard then he still had a shot!

I thought that he had a bit of unconventional relationship with Mengyao before, but found that he actually seems closer to that Chen Yushu Cihua was thinking about how Lin Yi risked his life to jump down with Yushu, back at the park. It was a suspicious move.

Chen Yushu? Ha, perfect! Jianwen lost his composure for a second upon hearing the words. After all, hed been plotting against Lin Yi simply because hed heard that he was in a relationship with Mengyao He felt liberated now that it was confirmed otherwise.

Whats wrong, Master An? Your love interest isnt Chu Mengyao, is it? Cihua guessed.

Its a bit embarrassing, but shes a childhood friend of mine- we grew up together. Jianwen nodded. I came back to China recently to see him with Chu Mengyao, so I thought Id bring him out and see if that was true.

Hes someone to take note of- hes just a bodyguard, but mind your step around him! Cihua reminded. Itd benefit him to distance Jianwens relationship with Lin Yi, even pit him against him.

I will. Jianwen nodded. Cihua Bro- are you guys plotting against Chu Mengyao?

Thats all in the past- weve ended those plans, so dont you worry. Cihua smiled. Even if it wasnt, there was no way Id continue those operations with you here, Master An.

Then you have my gratitude, Cihua Bro! Jianwen was quite pleased with Cihuas attitude. They hadnt started off in the best of ways, but that was all due ot Lin Yi- now that things have been cleared up Jianwen saw no reason in changing his intentions to work with Cihua.

Master An, weve started off with bad terms, but both you and I are open-minded people. Do mention anything that troubles you from now on. Cihua smiled as he poured Jianwen a cup of wine.

As a result of their misunderstanding, the two had skipped through all the initial courtesies and mind games theyd have played if they had met under normal circumstances.

Jianwen looked at the room Taizao was in, and turned his eyes to the people around Cihua.

Cihua smiled in understanding. He waved a dismissive hand. You guys leave the room first.

Yes! The bodyguards left without saying another word- they closed the door tightly behind them and stood guard outside.
