Beauty and the Bodyguard

10243 Chapter 10242-

The ones who would truly die because of life crystals were always the lower class commoners.

No matter where it was, this had always been the case in every dynasty.

With Lin Yi’s strength, it would be a piece of cake for him to take the life crystals.

Furthermore, as long as he made a move, Chen pinger would not send anyone to take revenge. She would only admit that she was unlucky. At most, she would report the matter and put him on the official blacklist.

She was a businessman and was good at weighing the pros and cons.

After a moment of silence, Chen Ping ‘er made a decisive decision and ordered,””I’ll give this young hero a bag of ten life crystals. ”

Soon, the items were placed in front of Lin Yi.

Chen Ping ‘er raised her eyebrows.”You don’t have to pay. This is my gift to you. You don’t hit a smiling person. How about we be friends?”

“You want to be friends with me?”

“Ten isn’t enough,” Lin Yi smiled,”my price isn’t low, I’m afraid you can’t afford it.”

“Not enough?” Chen Ping ‘er asked directly.”Not enough?” Then I’ll give you another 30. If you need it in the future, you’re welcome to come again. ”

A total of 40 life crystals.

If it was placed outside, it would probably cause a disturbance in the long queue. After all, it was enough for most of their families to last for an entire year. If they were in good health, it could even last for two or three years.

“Still not enough.” Lin Yi continued to shake his head.

Chen Ping ‘er’s face finally sank.””My Chen family is a Big Local family, and we think we are generous and hospitable. We shouldn’t have offended you in any way. Isn’t it a little too much for you to be so aggressive?”

Lin Yi looked out the door,”so that Chen house across the street is your Chen house, right?”

This is interesting. You can’t buy low-cost life crystals in official shops, but your own shop is selling them at five, six, or even ten times the sky-high price. It just so happens that you’re the manager here.

Hehe, aren’t you afraid of being investigated by the higher-ups when you do things so blatantly?”

After he finished speaking, he swept his gaze across the room. Two figures outside the door staggered and fell to their knees in front of the crowd. They were the middle-aged manager and his attendant who had come to watch the show.

The middle-aged manager looked at the guards who had fallen to the ground and could not help but be dumbfounded.

Only when he felt Chen Ping ‘er’s murderous gaze did he quickly get up with a quiver. He shrunk his neck and said,””Young miss, I’m afraid that this kid will cause trouble, so I’m here to take a look …”

Chen pinger ignored him and looked at Lin Yi,””Although your strength is high, you can’t be higher than King hai hai, right? Aren’t you afraid of being noticed by the king of the sea by causing trouble here?”

“You know hai hai Wang?” Lin Yi raised a brow, surprised.

Chen Ping ‘er snorted. The middle-aged steward quickly said,””Kid, look carefully. This is an official’s shop. Without some real connections, who can take it down?”

Lin Yi tilted his head,”that’s interesting. I’ve done some research on this coastal water King. As far as I know, he’s not a native of the sea and has no background here. Do you have a relationship with him?”

The middle-aged manager carefully glanced at Chen pinger. Seeing that she had no intention of stopping him, he immediately said arrogantly,””Although my family’s young lady has nothing to do with hai hai Wang himself, she has an engagement with his good brother, and they’re about to get married soon!”

“Good brother? Who is it?”

Lin Yi was really curious now.

Shen Yifan and his gang from Jianghai Academy were his sworn brothers, but in this Sea region, no one could call him brother. At most, they were allies.

Who was this good brother who had appeared out of nowhere?

“Of course!” The middle-aged manager raised his chin.”It’s the young master of the Qin family, Qin Qing!”

“You’re Qin Qing’s fiancée?”

Lin Yi couldn’t help but shake his head. Although Qin Qing was indeed a friend, he was still far from being a good brother.

The reason why he valued Qin Qing so much wasn’t because of Qin Qing herself, but rather because of the Qin family’s connections and the Qin family’s old grandmother who was very knowledgeable.

He looked at Chen pinger again and laughed,””With his vision as a passionate young master, he shouldn’t be so hung up on a tree like you. I don’t really believe it.”

“You!”

Chen Ping ‘er immediately exploded with anger.

This had always been a pain in her heart. Although Qin Qing was engaged to her, she had never looked at her in the eye. It was as if she was an unsightly, ordinary woman who would dirty her eyes if she looked at her more than once.

In fact, in Qin Qing’s eyes, she was just an ordinary woman who only had good looks on her body. In Lin Yi’s eyes, she was also an ordinary woman.

After a moment of silence, Chen pinger gritted her teeth and said,””Based on your attitude, it seems like there’s no room for leeway?”

“You didn’t leave any room for the people waiting outside,” Lin Yi said faintly,”how am I supposed to leave any room for you?” If I let you and the Chen family off so easily today, it won’t make any sense. ”

“What big words!”

Seeing this, the middle-aged manager jumped out and shouted,””Idiot who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, do you know the name of our Chen family? The number one restaurant in the distant sea!”

“What a great number one restaurant in the distant sea.”

Lin Yi chuckled and snapped his fingers, and an ancient-looking woman came in.

Chen Ping ‘er’s eyelids twitched. In terms of exquisite facial features, she didn’t think she would lose to him. But in terms of overall temperament, even she had to admit that he was far above her. There was no comparison at all.

“Ning Wanjun!”

This name was almost squeezed out from between her teeth. Even though they were thousands of miles apart, she had been paying attention to the woman next to Qin Qing and had even asked someone to draw a portrait of her.

Naturally, he had a deep impression of this extraordinary woman who had once played Qin Qing.

Ning Wanjun didn’t even look at her, walking straight to Lin Yi’s side with a Jade scroll in her hands,””Master, the evidence of the Chen family’s crimes has been collected.”

Chen Ping ‘er was dumbfounded.”You, you called him master?” she asked.

Towards this woman who Qin Qing couldn’t get, her resentment was so deep that she directly ignored the main point. Instead, she was shocked by the word “master”.

Ning Wanjun actually called this man ‘master’. Wouldn’t that mean that Qin Qing had an extra green hat on her head?

What they didn’t know was that ning Wanjun was now the leader of the special inspection team under Lin Yi, in charge of monitoring all parties.

It wasn’t too big yet, so it wasn’t too eye-catching, but in the foreseeable future, as Lin Yi’s power rose, especially when he really became the ruler of the four Seas, her monitoring group would grow into a giant that the entire sea would be afraid of.

And she indeed had such an ability.

It’d only been two hours since Lin Yi gave the order, and he’d already collected all the evidence from house Chen. There were only a handful of people under Lin Yi who had the same ability as him.
