The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 137 What if I scare my brother away?
Lin Chen carried the packed food into the ward.

Ye Wen was leaning against the hospital bed looking at her phone, while Gu Yuexi was sleeping soundly on the cot. She hadn't slept much last night while taking care of Ye Wen.

"Brother Chen..."

Ye Wen called out softly, her face slightly flushed, her eyes showing gratitude as well as embarrassment.

When she jumped off the building yesterday, she saw Lin Chen rush up to her, riding his bicycle against the current like Superman, and grab her in his arms, his hands even wrapped around her chest.

She vividly remembers how she felt at that time.

She jumped, and while still in mid-air, she regretted it, but it was too late. She could only watch helplessly as the dark earth rushed towards her, waiting to die in despair.

Lin Chen was like a miracle in despair, a shooting star that suddenly streaked across the sky, filling Ye Wen's despairing heart in that instant.

The impact caused her to faint, but before she passed out, she felt no fear whatsoever.

When she woke up, she found that she had only broken her arm and was otherwise unharmed. This made her feel both relieved and frightened, and she felt a strange emotion towards Lin Chen.

Upstairs was Liu Xuan, her boyfriend who had pushed her into the fire. They were college classmates and had been together for four years.

Downstairs was Lin Chen, who had risked his life to save himself; they had only met once.

Lin Chen smiled and walked over, placing his belongings on the table beside him. He lowered his voice and asked, "How are you feeling?"

Ye Wen replied gratefully, "It's just that my left arm is broken, nothing else is serious. Brother Chen, I don't know how to thank you enough. If it weren't for you, I'd probably be lying in a morgue or funeral home right now, not in a hospital room..."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "We're not outsiders, no need to be so polite... How long has she been sleeping?"

Before Ye Wen could answer, perhaps hearing the voice, Gu Yuexi groggily opened her eyes, then her eyes lit up and she sat up abruptly in bed: "Brother, you're here!"

Lin Chen smiled and said, "Now that you're awake, get up and eat."

Gu Yuexi rolled over and stood up, then covered her face with a hint of embarrassment: "I must look awful right now..."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Beautiful lady, stop looking at Versailles and go wash your face and eat."

Gu Yuexi was amused by Lin Chen's words. She picked up her small bag and went to the bathroom. After washing up and touching up her makeup, she came out.

She and Lin Chen hadn't even crossed that final threshold yet. She was very conscious of her image; what if she scared her brother away?
Lin Chen had already set out a small table and laid out the food.

Gu Yuexi sat down next to Lin Chen, picked up her bowl and asked, "Don't you ever go to work?" Lin Chen laughed and said, "I'm just a lazy bum who lives off others. It doesn't matter whether I'm here or not."

Gu Yuexi snorted, "No, that's not it! Brother, you're just being lazy. If you really put your heart into it, you'll be the best at whatever you do!"

Ye Wen watched the two laughing and joking, a hint of envy flashing in her eyes. At the same time, she was happy for Gu Yuexi. Her boyfriend was so manly, overflowing with boyfriend charm, making her feel incredibly safe.

"How long will I need to stay in the hospital? What did the doctor say?"

Gu Yuexi replied, "It's not a big problem. After a basic check-up this afternoon, I can go home to rest and come back regularly to change my dressing."

Lin Chen smiled and said, "That's great news."

After a pause, Lin Chen asked, "What are you and Liu Xuan planning to do?"

Ye Wen gritted her teeth: "Let's break up. I'll stay in a hotel later and find a place to live on my own."

Gu Yuexi assured her, "I'll help you find a place. Gao Xiaomin's family specializes in second-hand housing and rentals. Finding a good place will be a breeze. It'll be right next to my house. We can even meet up for a meal or go shopping sometime."

Ye Wen nodded: "Thank you for your trouble, Xi Xi."

Gu Yuexi laughed and said, "It's just a phone call, what's the trouble? But Liu Xuan caused you to jump off a building, are you just going to let it go like this?"

Ye Wen smiled bitterly, "I also wish I could beat him up to vent my anger, but Liu Xuan's family is well-off, and there's also that second young master of the Tian family. They're people I can't afford to offend. Forget it, it's best to stay away from them."

Gu Yuexi was speechless for a moment. Liu Xuan was alright, but she knew how difficult the Tian family was to deal with.

Didn't you see Tian Ming make some harsh remarks last night, saying that I should kneel down and beg him?
The trouble isn't just Ye Wen's problem now; it's already involved herself, and might even affect the Gu family.

Thinking of this, Gu Yuexi was filled with worry.

Seeing that the two women were silent, Lin Chen knew what they were thinking and smiled, "You don't need to worry. The Tian family's troubles have been resolved. Tian Ming won't dare to cause you any more trouble. Ye Wen, you don't need to be afraid of anyone now. It mainly depends on your own thoughts. Whether you want to break up and stay away from them to avoid trouble, or you want to take revenge and vent your anger, it's all fine."

Gu Yuexi's eyes widened suddenly. The Tian family's troubles were resolved overnight?
Gu Yuexi subconsciously thought of the night Zhao Yiheng sent Ah Long and three others to cause trouble. In the same night, Zhao Yiheng was dealt with cleanly and efficiently.

The Tian family is a powerful family of cultivators, not Zhao Yiheng!

How did Lin Chen solve it?
