Beauty and the Bodyguard

An Jian Wen’s Visit

As far as Jianwen was concerned, he was afraid that Mengyao would turn him down on the spot if he brought flowers to confess to her. Things wouldn’t look good if that happened, and his chances of being with Mengyao would disappear as well. "Then what should I do?", he asked.

"An bro, why not you confess after you drink?" Taizao suggested. "If she gets shy after, it means she has feelings for you. She might even say that she likes you back! Of course, if she hates it, you can blame the alcohol. I don’t think she will mind, will she? Besides, it won’t be awkward after that!"

"Taizao, that’s really a good plan, but you have to assist me tomorrow!" Jianwen nodded, "So shall we visit Mengyao now?"

"Ya, An bro, don’t worry, I’ll help you out tomorrow. I’ll make a perfect opening for you to confess!" Taizao puffed up his chest.

Lin Yi wasn’t expecting Jianwen and Taizao to visit them at this time. While gazing at them outside of the villa, he frowned. "An bro, can I can help you? Shu doesn’t feel good right now, she’s resting upstairs....."

Lin Yi didn’t know their intentions. Did they come here for him or Mengyao?

"Haha, we are here for Shu but since she is sick, we, as big brothers, have to check on her!" Jianwen smiled, "Taizao, go get her some fruits!"

"Okay, An bro!" Taizao took out his car key and drove away while Jianwen still standing at the entrance.

"Wait for a moment. I’ll go talk to them." Lin Yi was just using him to deal with Pinliang so he didn’t really care about Jianwen standing at the entrance.

Lin Yi went back into the villa to see Mengyao in the living room. She came down after hearing the doorbell. When she saw Lin Yi come in, she asked, "Lin Yi, who is that? Is it Uncle Fu?"

"Nope, it’s An Jianwen and Su Taizao. I’m not sure why they’re visiting." Lin Yi pointed at the entrance.

"Jianwen bro? Why is he here?" Mengyao was polite but there was a coldness in her voice. It seemed like she didn’t like Jianwen visiting her.

"How should I know? They said they are here for Shu." Lin Yi shrugged.

"Yaoyao sis, let them in. My brother is coming back tomorrow, they are probably here for that." Yushu came down. "I thought Uncle Fu came to deliver us food. I’m starving! I want to have a feast so badly!"

"Starving? You are hungry again? A feast no less?", Lin Yi was speechless. She had just puked out not long ago, and here she was requesting for food again. What made Shu get up? How could she forget the pain that she had just experienced not long ago?

"Yeah, my stomach is growling now." Yushu patted her stomach and complained, "I shouldn’t have puked it all. If only I still had something in my stomach....."

"Why don’t you eat back what you puked out just now?" Mengyao eyed Yushu. She thought that the topic was gross.

"Oh, that should be enough for both of us!" Yushu nodded.

"...." Mengyao felt like puking. She hungry just now, but after hearing Yushu, she lost all her appetite.

Lin Yi opened the door and Jianwen came in with a charismatic smile on his face. He saw Mengyao but he stayed calm and greeted her with a nod, "Yaoyao, I heard that Shu is sick?"

"I’m not sick, just that Yaoyao sis was trying to....."

Yushu was interrupted by Mengyao, "Her stomach was acting up a little, that’s all. She’s fine now, after puking." Mengyao wouldn’t allow Yushu to continue her nonsense.

"Oh, I see." Jianwen sensed that Mengyao didn’t want to talk about this topic, so he stopped. "Shu, Tian bro is coming back tomorrow. Taizao and I are planning to have dinner with him, why don’t you come and join us since you guys haven’t met for quite some time as well."

"Okay." Yushu accepted the invitation right away since she had longed to meet her brother. There was no reason for her to reject.

Mengyao was frustrated. How could Yushu just accept like that? If she was going, then Mengyao had no other options but to tag along, didn’t she? Just what is Jianwen doing? Was he really inviting Yutian for a dinner or just using him as an excuse to get Mengyao there?

Only Jianwen knew the answer.

"Yaoyao, do you mind joining us?" Jianwen asked with a smile.

Mengyao didn’t bother to answer Jianwen as she faced to Lin Yi and asked, "Lin Yi, you should be free tomorrow right? Follow us there!"

"Sure." Lin Yi said faintly.

Jianwen wasn’t pleased that Lin Yi was joining, but since Mengyao had agreed to go, it was good enough for him. He couldn’t just reject Lin Yi from joining, could he? He might cause a problem if he rejected Lin Yi to join the dinner. Mengyao might not even join if Lin Yi wasn’t going, so he allowed him to follow them.

"Haha, Yaoyao, even if you didn’t ask Lin Yi, I’d have invited him to join us. He’s my brother after all!", Jianwen said.

Mengyao eyed Jianwen and asked, "Is that all?"

"This....." Jianwen knew that Mengyao didn’t want him to stay any longer, but he wasn’t willing to leave just like that. He wanted to stay! A thought came to his mind, "Let’s wait for Taizao. He went to buy some fruits for Shu. We big brothers can’t just visit with empty hands, could we?"

"Oh, get him to buy me more. I’m starving!" Yushu ordered when she heard Jianwen.

"No problem, I’ll call him now!" Jianwen’s eyes brightened. Finally, he had an excuse to stay! Jianwen was afraid that Mengyao would stop him, so he quickly pulled out his phone and called. "Taizao, Shu is very hungry. Get her more fruits and dinner as well. Make sure you buy them at different locations. Variety is very important. Most importantly, buy as much as you can!"

Jianwen’s hint was rather obvious. As long as Taizao wasn’t stupid, he would probably get the hidden message. He was ordered not to return immediately to give some time for him to bond with Mengyao.

Taizao was no idiot. He got the message and stopped by the roadside. "An bro, I’m truly sorry. The traffic is pretty congested right now!"
