?43: Chapter 43: The Proactive Beautiful Assistant 43: Chapter 43: The Proactive Beautiful Assistant “What have I turned into?

    It’s just a new suit, a pair of leather shoes, and a pair of sunglasses,” Lin Yifan answered.

    “It seems clothes really do make the man; you look much more handsome now than before!” An Qi complimented.

    “Thanks for the compliment, Boss An!”

    Lin Yifan was a little excited inside because he had never been praised by a beautiful woman before.

    “By the way, you’re wearing designer labels, must have cost quite a bit.

    Where did you get the money?

    And what about that transfer message earlier?” An Qi asked.

    The most important thing for her was that transfer message, which was really odd because there was no reason Lin Yifan could make a hundred thousand just by stepping out.

    If money were that easy to come by, Lin Yifan wouldn’t have had to work as a bodyguard; she wanted to know the whole story.

    Lin Yifan didn’t hide anything and simply recounted his suit buying experience: “When I was buying the suit earlier, a rich second generation took a dislike to me and wanted to hit me; instead, I beat him up and extorted some money for emotional damages; that’s when that transfer message came.”

    “So that’s how it was!” An Qi suddenly realized.

    She really felt sorry for that rich second generation, encountering such a skilled tough guy, well, it’s said often enough—if you stand by the river often, your shoes are bound to get wet.

    “Just stay in the hall and don’t let any suspicious people come in and disturb me.”

    An Qi calmed down, seeing that Lin Yifan did it mostly to surprise her rather than to upset her, so she let it slide.

    “Sure!” Lin Yifan promptly responded.

    The next moment, An Qi turned and went back to work in her office, and Lin Yifan prepared to sit on the sofa in the hall to keep guard.

    However, as he turned around, he noticed his soul-stirring beautiful assistant.

    He waved his hand in front of the beautiful assistant and, seeing no reaction, called out, “Hey!

    Wake up!

    Wake up!”

    The beautiful assistant immediately snapped out of it and asked somewhat flustered, “What is it?”

    “What’s your name?”

    “Why’s he asking for my name?

    Does he want to chase after me?”

    The beautiful assistant’s heart thumped uncontrollably, and her face flushed, unsure of what to do.

    Even though Lin Yifan was just a bodyguard, his prospects were limitless, apparent from An Qi’s actions.

    In the past, An Qi’s personal bodyguards had always numbered four or more, now just one, indicating that Lin Yifan must be capable of handling four at once.

    With such skills, his salary had to be much higher than that of ordinary bodyguards.

    So even if Lin Yifan wasn’t truly wealthy and handsome, he was still a highly promising high-income individual.

    Therefore, why would she refuse the pursuit of such a high-income individual?

    So she replied, “My name is Wang Xiaolin, you can call me Little Wang or Xiaolin.”

    Lin Yifan didn’t use any nickname, merely addressed her politely: “Hello!

    Assistant Wang!”

    This seemed to imply that he wasn’t interested in pursuing Wang Xiaolin.

    Wang Xiaolin felt a little disappointed, but since Lin Yifan had extended his hand politely, she couldn’t refuse and stretched out her hand too: “Hello!”

    As their hands touched, Wang Xiaolin felt like she had been electrified, her body involuntarily shivered.

    This was Lin Yifan’s hand, this was Lin Yifan’s warmth, it felt so solid and comforting.

    She felt a great sense of security and charisma from him; this was the support she’d been looking for her whole life.

    So even if Lin Yifan didn’t like her, she was determined to make Lin Yifan fall for her.

    On the other hand, Lin Yifan furrowed his brows, feeling that something was amiss.

    When he shook hands with An Qi, he had felt a strange energy enter his heart; but when he shook hands with the beautiful assistant, he didn’t feel it.

    The contrast indicated that not everyone possessed strange energy.

    Now, he finally understood why his heart pounded so wildly when he saw An Qi again; it turned out that An Qi possessed the power that the “Black Bead” desired.

    He lost focus for a moment and then let go of her hand.

    Seeing Wang Xiaolin’s face turn so red, he asked concerned, “Assistant Wang, why is your face so red?

    Are you okay?”

    “Ah?

    No, nothing!

    Nothing!” Wang Xiaolin hastily snapped out of her daze, trying to stay composed.

    “Really, it’s nothing?”

    “Yes, really nothing.”

    “If it’s nothing, then I won’t disturb you from working.”

    “Okay!”

    Lin Yifan turned and walked towards the sofa.

    However, soon after he turned, a scream came from behind him.

    “Ah!”

    Wang Xiaolin, while turning back to her seat and off-balance due to her high heels and distraction, twisted her foot and fell.

    Lin Yifan quickly looked back to see Wang Xiaolin falling backward.

    Without a second thought, he rushed to her aid, catching her.

    Wang Xiaolin only felt herself supported by a broad arm, and suddenly the crisis was averted.

    She looked up at her rescuer and found it was Lin Yifan, whom she had just fallen for, and her heart blossomed with joy.

    She knew it was Lin Yifan; she knew Lin Yifan wouldn’t leave her in peril.

    After saving her, Lin Yifan was both flushing and flustered.

    This was because he saw something he shouldn’t have.

    Wang Xiaolin’s bursting...

    was truly captivating, almost criminally so.

    Wang Xiaolin also gradually realized that Lin Yifan’s gaze and expression were a bit off.

    She glanced down at her chest and suddenly understood why Lin Yifan was so embarrassed.

    She was not lacking in anything, except a good figure, which was her asset for “revolution,” so since Lin Yifan liked it, she would use her assets to win him over and deliberately took a deep breath to catch his eye.

    “Damn it!”

    Lin Yifan quickly closed his eyes, no longer daring to look.

    He then hurriedly helped Wang Xiaolin up, saying in a flustered voice, “I...

    I’m going to get a drink!”
