"What's up?"
"Give me your phone number." Xiao Jinyu said it so confidently that Xia Lin even forgot to ask why. He just watched blankly as Xiao Jinyu saved his number.
Does this mean they'll still be in touch in the future? It seemed that Xiao Jinyu wasn't as cold as he'd thought.
"If you run into any problems in the future, you can call me. I'll do my best to help you... as a way of repaying you for saving my life."
Hearing Xiao Jinyu mention the life - saving favor, for some reason, the phrase "I can't repay you for saving my life, so I'll marry you" flashed through Xia Lin's mind. He imagined the over - 1.8 - meter - tall, muscular Xiao Jinyu saying this expressionlessly. Xia Lin was shocked. What a mess!
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with what I said?" Why did Xia Lin look so strange?
"Nothing, nothing. Thank you. Don't worry. I won't bother you unless it's really important!" Xia Lin smiled. Now the big shot shouldn't worry that he'd ask for benefits because of saving his life, right?
Xia Lin went to wash the dishes, so he didn't see that Xiao Jinyu behind him looked quite unhappy. What did he mean by "won't bother him"? Tut!
A few days later, Xia Lin's 20 - day holiday ended, and Xiao Jinyu also left. That night, lying in bed, thinking that there was no one else in the next bedroom, Xia Lin couldn't fall asleep.
When going to school the next day, Xia Lin found he was being followed. Those people were quite skilled. If it weren't for the system, Xia Lin wouldn't have noticed that several people were taking turns "monitoring" him.
But when the system told Xia Lin that those people were sent by Xiao Jinyu, he understood that it wasn't monitoring but protection.
That was exactly the case. After returning, taking advantage of the moment when his opponents thought he was dead and were off their guard, Xiao Jinyu joined hands with his trusted aides and severely hit his opponents. But he didn't forget about Xia Lin. Worried that someone might find out about Xia Lin's help and do harm to him, Xiao Jinyu sent some people to secretly protect Xia Lin.
Touched, Xia Lin had an even better impression of Xiao Jinyu. Although in his heart, that emperor was still the most important. Ah! Stop thinking about him. It's impossible to go back. What's the use of thinking?
"Ding..." There was a text message on his phone. Let's see what it was. Was it a sales promotion from a Taobao merchant?
After seeing what the text message was, Xia Lin almost threw his phone out. What the hell? Who had transferred six - figure money to his bank card? Well, it was easy to guess. It must be Xiao Jinyu. He'd already said he didn't need the money, but unexpectedly... Should he return it?
Just as Xia Lin had this thought, Xiao Jinyu sent him a text message: Keep the money. Don't return it!
Well... Forget it. He wouldn't spend it casually. He'd just keep this money properly.
At night, lying in bed after 12 o'clock, Xia Lin turned off the light and was about to go to sleep when suddenly the phone rang. After what happened during the day, Xia Lin first thought it was Xiao Jinyu calling.
When he turned on the phone, it was actually an unknown number. Could it be a scam? Xia Lin didn't answer.
But the owner of this number was very persistent. It rang again as soon as Xia Lin hung up.
Helpless, Xia Lin had to answer the call. "Who is it at this late hour!"
"Is this Mr. Xia Lin? Hello, I'm... I'm afraid I have some very bad news for you!"
