"True, we'll go visit Naipao in the mountains this weekend!" Pinliang nodded.

"Yeah! I miss him a lot too, it's been so long! I miss the times the three of us spent together!" Xiaofu sighed. "Lin Yi hadn't come yet, back then, and we were still the tyrants of the school. Those were the days!"

"Hmph, if it weren't for Lin Yi, we'd still be the young masters who didn't know s.h.i.+t, kids messing around all day! We'd amount to nothing!" Pinliang said without pause. "It's Lin Yi who changed me- in my battles with him. I fulfilled myself, and kept on fulfilling myself! Only by beating Lin Yi will we succeed in life, and stand at the peak of this world!"

"Liang Bro, your considerations are so thorough! You'll become big for sure!" Xiaofu said.

"But, it's still too early for all that! Let's go back to the cla.s.sroom, and pretend we didn't even see Lin Yi!" Pinliang waved his hand, speaking with humility.

Lin Yi parked his car in the street food alley behind the school and quickly walked in as he called Tang Yun's phone.

"Yun Yun, where are you?" Lin Yi asked after the call went through.

"Reading a book in cla.s.s. There's not much time left in school, I'll miss it…" Tang Yun smiled. "Are you here yet? Should I come out?"

"Yeah, I'm waiting for you downstairs." Lin Yi sighed. He wondered if Tang Yun would be happy once she learned the truth.

It was the first time Lin Yi cared so much about a girl's thoughts. This caused the usually composed Lin Yi to worry.

The school was still the same old school, and now that it was lunchtime, there were a lot of students messing about on the field. Zhou Rouming still played ball with his gang of lackeys, and Pinliang was still hanging around with Xiaofu. This was a very familiar scene to him.

He leaned on a fence in front of the school building, waiting for Tang Yun.

It wasn't long before her silhouette came out. Like always, she was wearing plain school clothes, although she could afford better ones if she wanted now. She was always like that, after all, and that was why Lin Yi liked her. It didn't matter how much money he gave her family—nothing changed.

Tang Yun, upon seeing Lin Yi, smiled. The smile was a pretty smile.

She ran over to Lin Yi, and her b.r.e.a.s.t.s shook a little from the run, causing Lin Yi to pause. It's been a while since he last saw her, but did her b.r.e.a.s.t.s grow again?

Was she still in p.u.b.erty? Lin Yi wanted to ask but was a little embarra.s.sed. Although, he did strike the truth… Her b.r.e.a.s.t.s had been developing this past while.

After all, with how Mengyao pulled out Yushu's size advantage to fight her, Tang Yun became motivated, though she didn't let that slip. She added a gla.s.s of papaya juice every meal and realized that it actually worked.

This made her very happy! She was soon going back to Lin Yi's old home with him, and would never see Mengyao and Yushu for her entire life again! She wanted herself to be a little more perfect.

"You really didn't leave yet!" Tang Yun was happy to see Lin Yi, but her eyes betrayed that thick worry in her eyes.

"Yeah, not yet…" Lin Yi habitually grabbed Tang Yun's small hand. "Let's talk while walking."

"Okay…" Tang Yun's face reddened, but she didn't reject the hand. Her heart has already accepted Lin Yi, and had gotten accustomed to the occasional moments of affection with him, even if they were in public.

She was a girl who cared about her image and never had any bad rumors about her. But now, the entire school knew that she was Lin Yi's woman- but that gave her peace since she'd already accepted it.

Lin Yi pulled Tang Yun over to the tree near the field, walking slowly. He didn't say anything, not because he didn't want to, but because he was thinking about how he should approach it.

He understood Tang Yun's personality well. She may be tough sometimes but was especially fragile in the emotional aspect. With her experience with what happened to Fen, too—it forced her to protect herself like a hedgehog, p.r.i.c.kling up when anything moved in the gra.s.s.

This was why she was so resistant towards Lin Yi from the beginning. But, when she finally did open up to him and accepted him, she became so careful as if treading on ice, afraid that she would lose this relations.h.i.+p.

"Yun Yun…" Lin Yi finally said.

"Hm?" Tang Yun looked at him.

"I'm not going back home anymore, I'm staying in Songshan…" With that, he felt Tang Yun's hand clearly gripping his hand tighter. He sighed. "Because my strength returned… And even leveled up, so to speak."

Tang Yun curled her lips, and a flash of disappointment pa.s.sed through her eyes. But she smiled, "That's great! Congratulations!"

Lin Yi, of course, felt that small instance. He smiled bitterly. "Are you a little disappointed?"

"Why would I be?" Tang Yun shook her head. "Your abilities came back, I'm really happy!"

Tang Yun was telling the truth, but it was the truth still that her stable happy life with Lin Yi was broken. But! She really did feel happy for Lin Yi, now that he's regained his strength—after all, she knew how important this was to Lin Yi, he'd be in the dumps all the time if he was always crippled!

And so, even if she was a little disappointed, she wanted ln Yi to be happy.

"Thanks…" Lin Yi squeezed Tang Yun's hand.

"Then… Will you still live with Chu Mengyao" Tang Yun asked after some hesitation.

"Yeah, I promised them that I'd stay in the villa if my strength came back…" Lin Yi didn't hide.

"Haha… That sounds nice." Tang Yun felt a little down, and Lin Yi could tell.

"Yun Yun? Are you unhappy?" Lin Yi said.

"No…" Tang Yun shook her head and pulled out a small box from her pocket, giving it to Lin Yi. "Haha, this wouldn't be of use anymore, I guess. Here…"

It was the ring Lin Yi gave her.

Lin Yi paused. "Why're you giving this back to me? I bought it for you in the first place…"

"Maybe… This ring, it wouldn't be for me in the end, right? Who knows." Tang Yun had no confidence at this point. Mengyao and Yushu's intentions were clear as day—they still wanted Lin Yi to stay in the villa, did they want him to be their bodyguard forever?

Of course not. She didn't know if Lin Yi would continue wanting her, but her rivals… They were getting stronger by the day.
