Chapter 225: Don’t You Want To?

Lin Xiao didn’t pay attention to the resentful looks of the men around them, but Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu felt quite pleased with the other girls’ envious looks and requests. Huang Caixing, in particular, looked at Lin Xiao with eyes practically brimming with admiration.

Because, at that moment, Big Brother Lin was teaching her.

With the envious looks from around them and Lin Xiao’s helping them, Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu learned to swim quickly and enjoyed themselves even more in the sea, so much so that they skipped lunch.

It wasn’t until around 2 PM, completely exhausted, that the two finally got out of the water, albeit reluctantly.

After getting out, Lin Xiao and the girls headed to the changing rooms to shower and change. But this time, Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu weren’t as quick as they had been changing into their swimsuits. By the time Lin Xiao was done and out, the girls were still inside.

After waiting a few minutes, Lin Xiao decided not to wait any longer. He headed to a nearby restaurant and ordered a few dishes.

After all, it was already past 3 PM, and everyone was hungry. By ordering ahead, they could start eating as soon as Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu came out.

While Lin Xiao was off ordering food, Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu finally finished changing and came out of the changing rooms. When they didn’t see Lin Xiao, Huang Caixing looked puzzled. “Where’s Big Brother Lin?”

“No idea. Maybe he hasn’t come out yet?” Yuan Yu guessed.

“No way. He probably had something to do and left for a bit. Let’s wait here,” Huang Caixing suggested.

“Okay, let’s wait here,” Yuan Yu agreed.

Just then, a guy holding a drink came running out of the changing rooms and bumped right into Huang Caixing before she could react.

“Hey, watch where you’re going, beautiful. Look where you’re walking,” the guy said, pointing at his now drink-soaked clothes, grinning cheekily.

Seeing the guy blame her when it was clearly his fault, Huang Caixing glared at him fiercely.

“You’re the one who wasn’t looking where you were going! And you’re blaming me?”

The guy gave Huang Caixing a lewd look and said, “Oh, a feisty one, huh? I like that.”

“What do you want?” Huang Caixing asked, feeling a bit nervous under his gaze.

The guy’s eyes roamed over Huang Caixing’s chest as he replied smugly, “What do I want? Since you got my clothes wet, I’ll just have to get yours wet too. That’ll make us even.”

“You’re being ridiculous. You bumped into her,” Yuan Yu said angrily from the side.

“Ridiculous?”

The guy laughed loudly and then waved his hand.

Instantly, a group of people who had been hanging around nearby stood up and gathered around them, all shouting, “Hey, boss!”

The guy looked at Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu with a satisfied grin. “So, girls, still think I’m being ridiculous? I won’t push you too hard. Just have a few drinks with me and I’ll let you go.”

Seeing the group of people surrounding them and realizing they were the guy’s followers, Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu turned pale with fear. This scene was as if it was out of a gangster movie.

They were just high school students and had never encountered anything like this. Panic-stricken, they instinctively took steps backward. Both girls couldn’t help but think of Lin Xiao. If Big Brother Lin were here, these guys wouldn’t dare to act so arrogantly.

Trying to muster some courage, Huang Caixing said, “I… I’m telling you, we’re here with Big Brother Lin. You… you better not go too far, or else…”

But she trailed off, knowing full well that no matter how strong Lin Xiao was, he wasn’t here, and these thugs wouldn’t care.

Sure enough, one of the lackeys scoffed, “Big Brother Lin? Who the hell is that? I’m telling you, around here, our boss is the king.”

“Yeah, Big Brother Lin? What a joke. This place belongs to our boss.”

“Never heard of him. Hey, beauty, is this Lin guy your friend? I’m telling you, it doesn’t matter who comes. Everyone knows our boss runs this place.”

The thugs behind the guy all jeered and taunted.

Hearing his lackeys sucking up to him, the guy smugly lifted his head as if he were some kind of big-shot.

“Really?”

Just as the guy was feeling all high and mighty, a young voice suddenly came from behind him.

Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu, who had nearly lost all hope, saw who it was and shouted, “Big Brother Lin, you’re finally here!”

“Who the hell is this Big Brother Lin? Since you don’t know what’s good for you, I’ll teach this so-called big brother a lesson and make you girls lose all hope,” the guy sneered.

He’d already noticed that Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu were wearing plain clothes, so he figured they didn’t have any powerful connections. He hadn’t taken their Big Brother Lin seriously at all. Without even turning around, he cursed, “I’m telling you, there’s still time to beg for mercy, or else I’ll make you…”

As he turned around, cursing, and saw who it was, his face changed drastically, and he couldn’t finish his sentence.

“Panther Bro, keep talking. What else were you going to say?” Lin Xiao walked up with a cold expression.

The guy was none other than Li Bao, who had been severely beaten by Lin Xiao just the other day when he was with Su Mengjia.

“L-L-Lin… Brother Lin, I-I didn’t know it was you… Let’s go, everyone, move out,” Li Bao’s mind raced with panic.

That had left such a strong impression. He ran into this terrifying person again and hurriedly gestured for his men to leave, fleeing without looking back. Li Bao darted into the crowd and disappeared.

Lin Xiao couldn’t help but feel a bit speechless. He planned to teach Brother Panther a good lesson, but the guy ran off so quickly. Since Li Bao had already blended into the crowd, Lin Xiao couldn’t be bothered to chase him. He turned to Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu.

“Are you both alright?”

Huang Caixing and Yuan Yu looked at Lin Xiao with sparkling eyes. They had always known Lin Xiao was strong, but they didn’t realize he was this formidable. The thug boss, who had been so arrogant just moments ago, ran away at the mere sight of Big Brother Lin. It was almost legendary.

Both girls gazed at him with admiration.

“Big Brother Lin, you’re amazing!”

“I wish I had a boyfriend like Big Brother Lin!”

Huang Caixing, the more bold of the two, looked at Lin Xiao with eyes full of longing. Her gaze was so sweet it could make anyone’s heart melt.

“Caixing, you’re shameless! What nonsense are you talking about?” Yuan Yu scolded.

Huang Caixing, unashamed, replied, “So what? Can’t I even dream? Besides, don’t you want the same?”

“Stop saying such things! Big Brother Lin is my brother, so stop talking nonsense,” Yuan Yu shot Huang Caixing a reproachful look, but her eyes betrayed her true feelings.

“Brother? More like your lover brother,” Huang Caixing laughed.

“You’re so shameless, Caixing.”

“I’m just being honest. If you don’t want him, then Big Brother Lin is mine.”

“You…”

The two girls started playfully chasing and teasing each other.

“Ahem, let’s go eat. I’ve already reserved a table,” Lin Xiao said, unable to handle Huang Caixing’s bold and suggestive remarks any longer. He quickly cleared his throat and strode toward the restaurant where he had made the reservation.
