Zombie Bodyguard

Chapter 1693 - 1690: Owing a Favor

Within a minute, Mi Yue rushed out of the teaching building in a whirlwind. This senior sister is quite tall, and although not stunning at first glance, the more you look, the more you appreciate her beauty.

Mi Yue is the kind that grows on you, but now her fair face is full of anger. As she appears, the crowd opens up a path, revealing Brother Yong inside.

In front of Brother Yong, there are many roses arranged into the shape of a heart. Obviously, he’s here to woo someone, his ex-girlfriend.

"Xiao Yue, please forgive me. I was wrong that night. Please give me another chance," Brother Yong said earnestly.

His sincere expression, coupled with the heart-shaped roses in front of him, was quite convincing to many, and some students started speaking for him.

"Senior sister, forgive him, everyone makes mistakes. It’s good to correct them," a male student spoke for him, and many others echoed the sentiment.

Generally, when girls encounter such a situation, they either run away or feel awkward and end up forgiving the person.

However, Mi Yue is not just any girl. A rare major in paleontology, how could she be simple? She said bluntly, "What’s the fuss? That night in the apricot grove, I ran into someone, and he thought it was a ghost, leaving me behind and running away. Who knows when someone like that might stab you in the back."

After Mi Yue quickly recounted the events of that night, those who initially sympathized with Brother Yong hissed at him in disdain.

"If it weren’t for that jerk scaring me, would I have run? If there’s a mistake, it was that jerk’s!" Brother Yong, angry and embarrassed, tried to shift the blame to Lin Tian.

"Who’s the jerk, huh?" Lin Tian stepped in, suddenly speaking coldly. Initially, he didn’t want to bother, but didn’t expect this guy to publicly insult him.

Upon seeing Lin Tian, everyone got excited: "It’s Lin Tian..."

"Junior..." Mi Yue was also surprised, and her previously angry expression turned into a smile.

Brother Yong felt a pang of jealousy and was just about to say something harsh when Lin Tian looked at him indifferently: "Are you still not leaving? If you keep pestering Sister Xiao Yue, I’ll make you relive that night’s experience."

Recalling the painful incident that night, which almost made him wet himself, Brother Yong shuddered all over and quickly scurried away faster than a rabbit, disappearing into the distance, leaving behind the valuable roses. These roses on the ground were worth at least a thousand or two thousand yuan.

The crowd hissed again, and without anything exciting to watch, they quickly dispersed. With Lin Tian’s appearance, what was supposed to be a grand scene of wooing ended abruptly.

"Junior Lin Tian, I owe you a favor. If you need anything from senior, just ask," Mi Yue said seriously.

"I just taught him a lesson for his loose tongue. I didn’t expect such a large person to be so cowardly in difficult situations," Lin Tian said with disdain.

"You don’t know yet, do you? The reason he’s still pestering me is that he made a bet with his roommate, trying to win me back for a 5,000 yuan wager, thinking I didn’t know," Mi Yue rattled off a bunch of words, leaving Lin Tian both amused and exasperated.

Finally, Mi Yue added: "I still have an experiment. I’ll talk to you later when I have time. Bye-bye." After finishing, she dashed back into the teaching building, leaving Lin Tian with a pile of roses.

Lin Tian kicked the roses and was about to leave when Xiao Manxuan came out of the teaching building. Just as he was about to greet her, he noticed someone following her, the persistent Zhao Weitao.

"Getting a bit of fame, thinking you’re a savior, you really like to meddle," Zhao Weitao glanced at Lin Tian and said with a cold smile.

"Xuanxuan, let’s go. The more I look, the less I can eat, it makes me nauseous." Lin Tian didn’t want to waste words with him and pulled Xiao Manxuan away.

Seeing Lin Tian holding Xiao Manxuan’s hand, Zhao Weitao’s eyes flickered, and he said coldly, "Don’t forget, the cocktail party is tomorrow night. Let’s see if you can get a sponsorship."

No one paid him any attention, and Lin Tian and his friends left directly. After walking some distance, Xiao Manxuan said amusedly, "With so many roses, I thought you two guys were stirring things up."

"You’re not the first to misunderstand." Remembering Mi Yue’s misunderstanding in the apricot grove, Lin Tian was quite speechless.

This was just a small incident, and as for the sponsorship mentioned by Zhao Weitao, Lin Tian didn’t care much.

However, while he was indifferent, someone else couldn’t sit still. The next day was Saturday, and early in the morning, He Xiaofei called Lin Tian to remind him about getting sponsorship for tonight’s cocktail party. It was likely Zhao Weitao spread the news with the intention of having Lin Tian and his friends embarrass themselves.

Around seven in the evening, with the sky not entirely dark yet, Lin Tian and Xiao Manxuan were already in the car, going to the girls’ dormitory to pick up He Xiaofei. She, as the head of the Adventure Club’s activity group, needed to attend the sponsorship event, and she was accompanied by another girl.

Driving an ordinary-looking car to pick up the girls had one advantage: at least it wouldn’t be seen as some unseemly arrangement.

"Lin Tian, I’m Zhong Ling, the deputy head of the activity group," the girl said, her opening statement quite normal. Then she added, "I’m your fan, by the way. You were so cool that night..."

Lin Tian couldn’t help but feel exasperated. To think he’d run into a ’fan’, although it was a relief that Zhong Ling was relatively rational, at least she didn’t ask for an autograph or a photo.

However, when the car’s smart system was activated, the girl exclaimed again. Lin Tian was used to it, and continued driving leisurely out of campus. At the gate, they spotted a red sports car parked on the roadside, with the Sea Emperor Trident logo indicating its extraordinary value.

When everyone thought it was some rich second-generation kid coming to the school to flirt, the car window rolled down, revealing the faces of Zhao Weitao and Liu Yuansi.

This time, however, Liu Yuansi was driving, and Zhao Weitao sat in the passenger seat. This Maserati was evidently Liu Yuansi’s ride.

"Lin Tian, Class Leader He, we thought you wouldn’t dare show up," Liu Yuansi glanced inside Lin Tian’s car with a smile, "Oh, and don’t forget the location, Yunquan Villa. If you don’t know the way, just follow me."

With that, he hit the gas, and the Maserati’s deep engine roar caught the attention of the passing male and female students.

The road outside school was busy with traffic. Lin Tian didn’t want to compete and continued driving leisurely behind. Liu Yuansi, aware of Lin Tian’s car’s capabilities, didn’t dare provoke him closely.

"Lin Tian, do you know how to get into Yunquan Villa?" Xiao Manxuan, seeing Lin Tian so relaxed, couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity.

"I don’t know, I’ll figure it out when we get there. Worst case, I’ll climb over the wall," Lin Tian replied nonchalantly, actually considering the option, since it wouldn’t be his first time climbing over walls. People like 007 typically sneak into cocktail parties anyway.

The three girls were stunned, thinking, are we three girls also supposed to climb over the wall together?
