Beauty and the Bodyguard - Chapter 1290
Chapter 1289 – The Prophecy Comes True Again
Xu Shihan was no idiot. In fact, she was a brilliant girl- after all these years in the entertainment industry, she could maintain calm and steady with a clear head, so just within a few seconds of resting after waking up, her mind was cooled down instantly!
The man before her was obviously not an ordinary person! All her past experiences told her that it was impossible for her to recover from the headache in such a short period of time. Normally the moment she woke up, it’d be the second day already, let alone waking up after a few seconds!
But the man before him achieved that feat by using a few silver needles and massaging technique, she woke up from the treatment and her head even stopped buzzing and not even a trace of pain could be found in her system- the effect was so much better than Medicine King Zhao’s medicine!
Besides, what stunned Xu Shihan the most was that this guy actually knew about hitting the pressure point! Was it called hitting a pressure point, Xu Shihan herself didn’t know, but that was what people called in the martial arts drama. Lin Yi only casually tapped a few of her pressure points. She was completely immobilized even speech was impossible, so Xu Shihan was certain that Lin Yi knew about this part of knowledge very well!
Xu Shihan would be impressed by someone who was an expert in acupuncture and massaging, but she would only categorize him as a medical expert, but for someone to know about pressure point- then it was purely not just medical expertise, could it be that he was a martial art master as well?
However, in the martial arts world, how many knew about hitting a pressure point? Xu Shihan might not be a practitioner, but her bodyguard, Feng Sanhuang was! Although she didn’t know how strong he was, she had a certain level of understanding of martial arts from the mouth of her bodyguard! Many masters could fight, but to hit a pressure point… she had never heard of it, had she?
Looking into the eyes of the man before him, there wasn’t any trace of lust- Xu Shihan knew that everything he said was indeed true! The eye is the window to the heart. She had gotten a talent from reading people’s minds by looking into their eyes after all these years of acting. The man before him really had no interest in her. It was no joke!
He was different from Zhao Qibing- his eyes were full of lust and desire. The lust in his eyes wasn’t found in Lin Yi’s. His eyes were completely emotionless, no admiration nor excitement to a celebrity could be found, either. He looked at her like a completely ordinary person.
Perhaps, what the man said was true, his girlfriend was much prettier than herself and for him to save her was all for his girlfriend to enjoy the concert! Hence, Xu Shihan nodded in response.
However, after all this, Xu Shihan was still very pissed inside! She should be grateful to Lin Yi for treating her! A woman is a very strange creature. This phrase is absolutely correct! Xu Shihan was truly glad that Lin Yi was different from Zhao Qibing, but she was displeased by Lin Yi’s disinterest- he even said that her girlfriend was far prettier than her, this made her very unhappy!
She was a superstar, after all, adored by the people, be overwhelmed by unexpected favors, but Lin Yi didn’t see this as a serious matter? He was really blind! Besides, his reason for saving her was so stupid. This made Xu Shihan completely lost her interest to show her gratitude! But a feeling of envy crossed her mind out of nowhere. She didn’t know why she was envious of his girlfriend!
Having a boyfriend like this, she must be very happy!
Lin Yi saw that Xu Shihan nodded, he loosened his hold and said faintly. “Are you okay? If you’re, please go up the stage and continue your concert, you don’t have to thank me but if you wish to show your gratitude, take a picture with my girlfriend after the concert that will be the repay!”
Xu Shihan didn’t know she should be crying or laughing after listening to Lin Yi’s request! She didn’t even say that she wanted to repay him, did she? What attitude was this to deserve a repay? Hng Hng! Xu Shihan was furious! But as furious as she was, she was not an ungrateful person. No matter what, Lin Yi was still her savior. Indeed, he did her huge favor! The original intention wasn’t important. The point was that she was benefitted from it.
So Xu Shihan didn’t even think before agreeing. One, she wanted to repay the debt, second, she wanted to ask Lin Yi more about her condition, could he do her favor again by treating her!
As far as she was concerned, Lin Yi must have an idea or two how to save her. Lin Yi’s medical prowess was definitely stronger than Medicine King Zhao. However, the main issue was that Lin Yi had no intention of doing dirty things with her, so Xu Shihan’d agree to connect Lin Yi with open hands.
“Sure! This is my number, call me after the concert. I’ll send someone to pick you guys up!” Xu Shihan nodded and gave out her number before rushing out. Time was constraining. She didn’t have much time left to do her makeup, so Xu Shihan ran out of the washroom, leaving Lin Yi alone.
The fans were all impatient due to the technical error on the stage. However, Su Jiaonang was celebrating inside! He quickly gave Zhao Qibing a call after knowing something was wrong.
“Master Bing, good news!” Su Jiaonang announced excitedly.
“What news? Did she agree?” Zhao Qibing paused and asked.
“Xu Shihan’s illness is acting up on the stage; outsiders might think that it was a technical error, but to me, her headache must be acting up again!” Su Jiaonang said. “I’m grabbing Medicine King Zhao’s medicine to meet them later, forcing them to agree to Master Bing, your terms!”
“Haha! Good, taking advantage in an unstable state, I like it!” Zhao Qibing was delighted to hear the news- it was an opportunity given by the Grace! “Fast, once you’ve gotten the good news, inform me immediately!”
Meanwhile, when Lin Yi was going upstairs, he coincidentally passed the washroom and heard the whole conversation of Su Jiaonang and Zhao Qibing- his lips curved into a smirk, it seemed like Zhao Qibing’s plan wasn’t going to work again? Although Lin Yi didn’t really care about what Zhao Qibing was going to do Xu Shihan, ruining his plan accidentally was blissful too!
Lin Yi returned to the VIP area and back to his seat. The stage slowly rose up again. Lin Yi smiled; it seemed like Xu Shihan was rocking the stage again!
“Lin Yi honey, you’re back, the stage was having a technical issue just now, you left at the right timing- didn’t miss out any fantastic performances. You’re so lucky too. The stage is back when you come back!” Xiaoxiao said.
“Yeah, such coincidence, if one didn’t know, I would think that Shield bro and Xu Shihan planned this out together and had a date just now!” Yushu commented.
Lin Yi flinched and praised Chen Yushu from his heart. Did she just hit the jackpot again? Why was her prophecy so accurate?
