Chaptere 1215 – Do You Believe Me

 Xiaoxiao nodded and walked into the room with Lin Yi. She wanted to share the bed with him, but the bed was simply too small for two, they'd have to be hugging, and that posture really was too intimate! She liked Lin Yi, but the thought of spending the night with him like that put a blush on her face

 “Let's sleep then, I'll protect you from here,” Lin Yi didn't think too much about anything- he never planned on sleeping on the same bed as Xiaoxiao. He could fall asleep even when sitting.

 Plus, he wanted to enter the jade s.p.a.ce and try breaking through again.

 “Oh…” Xiaoxiao breathed out in relief once she saw that Lin Yi didn't have any intention of sharing the bed at all, but still felt a little disappointed.

 “Good night,” Lin Yi moved the chair to beside the bed and shut the lights off, sitting on it.

 Xiaoxioa lay on her bed but didn't close her eyes. In the dark, her eyes kept darting over to Lin Yi, thinking that he couldn't see.

 But Lin Yi's vision in the dark was better than anybody's.

 “Why aren't you asleep yet?” Lin Yi felt amused at Xiaoxiao's moving eyes.

 “Ah… How did you know I was awake?” Xiaoxiao paused.

 “Because I can see you,” Lin Yi shrugged helplessly.

 “Ah, you're amazing, Lin Yi honey!” Xiaoxiao said, “Do you have the legendary fire eyes that the monkey king had?”

 “…” Lin Yi was a bit speechless, “I'm a pract.i.tioner, so of course I can see things in the dark.”

 “I see… Wait, do you think I wouldn't have to die if I become a pract.i.tioner too?” It was the first time she discussed this matter with Lin Yi- now that he knew, she had no reason to hide anymore.

 “That's… That is possible,” Lin Yi smiled bitterly, “But the time isn't really enough- if you had started from young it might still be possible, but now…”

 Earlier, Tang Yun took the chance when Xiaoxiao was getting the rice to tell Lin Yi that Xiaoxiao had learned that they knew about her situation.

 “I see…” Xiaoxiao was a bit disappointed- Lin Yi didn't finish speaking, but she knew the answer already. It was too late to start now, it was pointless.

 “Xiaoxiao, do you believe me?” Lin Yi took a deep breath.

 “Of course I do!” Xiaoxiao nodded, a bit confused.

 “I'll be able to cure you for sure! You won't die- remember these words! So have fun every day, don't think about it too much,” Lin Yi's face was extremely solemn as he said this- not only did he want to make her feel better, he actually wanted to solve this issue!

 “Yeah, of course I believe you! I'll look forward to that day… Haha!” Xiaoxiao, naturally, couldn't see the look on Lin Yi's face, and a.s.sumed that he was just trying to console her. But she'd already accepted her fate- she wouldn't get hung up over her daeth.

 “Good night then, we still have school tomorrow” Lin Yi smiled. Evidently, Xiaoxiao didn't believe him, but that was fine- the point was that he was confident. No matter what, he had to find a way to cure her, no matter the cost!

 Xiaoxiao shut her eyes- Lin Yi was right, they had school- plus she was getting sleepy…

 Only until after Xiaoxiao fell asleep did Lin Yi enter the jade s.p.a.ce, pract.i.tioning again..

 House Xiao's villa. The lights were still on.

 In the living room, smoke was all over the place- Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben were smoking on the sofa!

 “G.o.d d.a.m.n it, these people sure were enthusiastic when offering partners.h.i.+ps. The instant we talk about using our money to get at Pengzhan Industries, they all backed off, saying they didn't have much movable funds! Second brother, tell me, what's with these cowards?!” Xiao Ji was quite p.i.s.sed!

 The brothers had visited all their business partners, and either they didn't have any movable funds, or that they were too occupied with big projects- in simple terms, no one agreed with their plan to make a move on Pengzhan Industries!

 “Big brother, calm down,” Xia Ben sighed, “The truth is, these people are in a partners.h.i.+p with us to take advantage of our rising name- all businesses with us will result in big profits for sure. Fighting Pengzhan Industries though, that's a risk! They might have to lose money if things went wrong. Plus, Pengzhan Industries is different from the others. The shares are mainly with Chu Pengzhan and some main shareholders, so even if we take all the stocks, we can only be a small shareholder in Pengzhan Industries! There's no point to that at all, and Old w.a.n.g's talk with us made me think that this move wouldn't work at all.”

 “Then what do we do? Do we just give up? Lin Yi's in the hospital, and Chu Pengzhan's businesses are just waiting for us to take it over!” Xiao Ji felt that it was a waste.

 “Not much we can do about that- Elder Pi and Mister Pi are both in the hospital, that warrior really is too powerful, hitting us right at this time! Even if we want to take Chu Pengzhan's stuff, we don't have the strength to back it up!” Xiao Ben sighed, “He wants to do it the hard way, too, and if we want to get anything from him it would have to require Elder Pi and Master Pi's help.”

 “Such a waste!” Xiao Ji was quite troubled.

 “It's fine, we'll look for a chance in the future. It will come once the Pi's leave the hospital,” Xiao Ben said, “The meeting of n.o.ble houses will start soon, and we need to get things going- us, House Xiao, will be able to get a good spot this time, only just lower than House Yu's seat!”

 “Yes, you're right! Tomorrow I'll go to Yanjing to visit Yu Shuixing!” Xiao Ji nodded.

 House Xiao's revenge would have to be stopped there- they needed to wait for a more suitable time before dealing the death blow to the Chu's.

 At the same time, in Yuanyuan's house.

 Yu Ren was busy tidying things up with his wife- it felt just like a dream.

 Healed, just like that? A lion's bite, healed??

 Yu Ren was quite shocked when he saw the scene, as he hadn't accepted it as a part of reality until he came home!

 “Why do you keep looking at me?” Miss Yu was getting uncomfortable- Yu Ren kept staring at her!
