Lin Yi cleaned the table up shortly after finishing dinner with Yushu. Li Fu would usually take the dishes with him the next day to the hotel, giving them back to the dishwashers back at the hotel, but Lin Yi didn"t like how messy and oily everything was. It wasn"t much of an effort to just wash the dishes, anyway.

"You"re quite the family man, Shield Guy- whoever brings you home for a husband"s gonna be pretty blessed in the future! I"m going up, bye!" Yushu gave some words of encouragement before disappearing upstairs.

Bring home for husband? A cold sensation washed over Lin Yi- the girl was a bit of a masculinist, it seemed, but he"d gotten used to Yushu"s weirdness by now.

Lin Yi put the empty food containers into a plastic bag, and shut the lights off before going back to his room.

Lin Yi was restless- the stone doors were about to open again. His const.i.tution had strengthened greatly, and his meridians felt more solid. It was the same with his agility and skill as a fighter, as well- he was well above the average man at this point.

From the perspective of normal people, Lin Yi was a master among masters, an absolute fighter. It excited Lin Yi- if he was this strong at the first phase, how much more powerful would he grow when he advanced to the mid and late phases..?

There was also the second set of stone doors- what lay beyond them?

Lin Yi rubbed the jade hanging around his neck as he contemplated. Just this jade alone had brought him countless counts of fortune… What could those doors possibly hold?

The jade had even saved his warmates" lives on many occasions, as well, but Lin Yi had yet to fully grasp and comprehend its nature.

The jade"s power was intriguing- it was like Lin Yi"s mind was linked to it; the jade always managed to identify any hostile ent.i.ties near him. It would always send him a signal, granting him a certain extent of premonitive ability.

It was precisely due to this jade that Lin Yi and his warmates could survive when under a.s.sault in the primal jungle, getting out of life-threatening situations time after time.

The jade provided an additional function, as well: any hostile ent.i.ty Lin Yi encountered would register itself in the jade- it would always recognize the person, even if their hostile intents were concealed. The closer the person to LIn Yi, the stronger the jade reacted.

A battle between masters more or less always ended in surprise attacks and a.s.sa.s.sinations- a failed attempt would result in an immediate retreat; extended confrontations were kept to a minimum.

Everyone who"d faced Lin Yi before fell under his hands, even if they"d managed to escape- Lin Yi would always kill them off eventually.

It was also the cause for his warmates" nickname of him: Eagle. After all, there weren"t many animals who could get out alive after being targeted by the eagle.

It went without saying that the jade"s capabilities went beyond just that- it sent Lin Yi signals for good premonitions as well as bad ones, giving out different signals for each situation. He didn"t know how the jade sent the signals, or what form they came in, but everyone around him never seem to notice.

These three signals were the only ones Lin Yi currently understood- there were times where the jade sent off other signals that didn"t fall into the three categories, and he had no idea what the jade was reacting to, or what it meant at all.

Yushu pushed open the door, entering Mengyao"s room only to see her huddled in front of her test paper, going through her answers as she ate some potato chips.

"Too much chips will affect your growth, you know." Yushu smiled as she looked at Mengyao, remembering what she"d done to Lin Yi earlier.

"Why are you smiling like that..?" Mengyao was getting uncomfortable with how happily Yushu was smiling. She looked at her body for a bit, failing to find anything noteworthy- Was Yushu implying that her chest was more developed than Mengyao"s?

"Lemme tell you something, Yao Yao… I avenged you!" Yushu grinned as she fell onto the bed, grabbing Mengyao"s chips away from her.

"Too much chips affect your growth, right?" Mengyao said with a glare. "What do you mean, avenge? What did you do?"

"Hehe, my growth"s good enough already, it"s a perfect body for my height!" Yushu commented, not giving a care in the world as she dropped a chip into her mouth. "Well, you see, I called Shield Guy to the table so we could have dinner, and I told him to sit where you were sitting. Then I said: We have your rice and chopsticks set up already…"

"...Huh? So wha- wait, are you telling me he"s been eating from my bowl??" Mengyao asked in realization, her eyes wide open.

"Yeah, and using your chopsticks, too!" Yushu said gleefully. "What a revenge, right! Now he"s eaten your saliva, as well!"

"What in the world..?" Mengyao was shaking her head, speechless. "Isn"t that good for him, though?"

"Uh…" So it"s bad for you when you eat his saliva, but it"s good for him when he eats yours? Yushu thought further into it, however, and realized that Mengyao"s words made sense- any other boy from their school would probably be smiling happily if it"d happened to them!

"Whatever, let"s stop talking about him." Mengyao said, annoyed. She wasn"t really keen on talking about Lin Yi so often. "Aren"t you going to go over the English paper?"

"Oh, I"ll do that now." Yushu replied seriously as she went to her bag, pulling out her English test paper and going over them with Mengyao.

Mengyao and Yushu had good IQ, but it was useless if they didn"t put in any effort- their families were rich and powerful, but that shouldn"t be a reason for them to slack off, Mengyao especially. She didn"t want people saying that she got into an elite cla.s.s because of who her father was.

Having finished with their English papers, the two turned their attention to revising other subjects. They were twelfth graders, after all, and the final exams were coming. Their backgrounds ensured that they"d get into a top tier college, but genuinely deserving that acceptance was a completely different thing.

It was getting late, and Mengyao yawned. Yushu was getting tired as well, and the two took a hot bath in the bathroom before watching an episode of Pleasant Lamb and the Big Big Wolf on their MP4, going to sleep right after.

Lin Yi, on the other hand, was practicing his Dragon Mastery. One night of replenishing stamina through the training was more than enough to subst.i.tute a few hours of sleep.

It was five in the morning by the time Lin Yi opened his eyes, letting out a deep, turbid breath. He decided not to go watch television again as he brushed his teeth- it"d just cause him more trouble.

He"ll be able to watch whatever he wanted in his room after buying himself a laptop.

Chapter 72 - Seabay Villas

Lin Yi didn"t mind making breakfast for Mengyao and Yushu, but Li Fu had mentioned that the girls always had their breakfast at school before Lin Yi came along.

There was some rice left from yesterday"s dinner, and Lin Yi was planning on cooking some egg-fried rice. It was a mere gesture for him, after all.

He dressed himself before walking over to the kitchen.

He found some sausages and a couple of eggs upon pulling the fridge door open. Li Fu"s constant care guaranteed the quality of these ingredients, and it was very unlikely that they"d be expired. The two princesses rarely ever cooked, but it didn"t hurt having a safety measure for Mengyao make herself a light meal at night, if she did get hungry.

He couldn"t find any onions, and decided to make do without any, remembering the sudden spike in onion prices after the onion song had went viral.

Egg-fried rice was something Lin Yi often cooked back home, and it didn"t take long before he produced the dish. He prepared his own portion, finishing it as fast as possible before dumping it in the sink and washing it up- he didn"t want any saliva wars happening again.

He must have made some noise, for Mengyao and Yushu came walking down sleepily in their pajamas not long after. The pajamas were cute, with cartoons on it, but the two of them did seem a bit too old for that… Lin Yi recalled the type of shows these girls watched, and shrugged to himself. He thought that that was how girls were, especially the rich ones- it wasn"t odd for them to be a bit immature from time to time.

The silky, smooth pairs of legs under the pajama skirts, however, heated Lin Yi up- couldn"t these two girls be a bit more aware about things like that? There was a freaking guy in the house! Lin Yi wouldn"t dare to do anything dirty to the two, but still…..

"Wa, Shield Guy, you"ve made breakfast again!" Yushu said as she sniffed about, following the aroma into the kitchen. "Hoh, egg-fried rice, my favourite."

Mengyao only cleared her throat in response, a little unhappy about how obvious Yushu was being. What"re you doing Shu, you can"t just praise him like that!

"You eating, Yao Yao?" Yushu asked as she got herself a bowl.

"I… don"t like egg-fried rice." Mengyao"s pride was still holding her back, apparently- eating Lin Yi"s food was like losing to him! She did eat Lin Yi"s cooking yesterday, however, and the day before that, but…

Mengyao didn"t know what to say about how Yushu was acting, as well. Did she really have to put on such a delighted face? It"s just some rice!

"Come on, I made a lot you know? It"d be wasted if you didn"t eat any." Lin Yi offered with a smile, as if noticing Mengyao trying to suppress her emotions.

"Oh, I guess teachers do say not to waste food. Maybe I"ll eat a little." Mengyao said after some hesitation, taking Lin Yi up on his offer.

"Ah…" Lin Yi didn"t add anything else. The Miss not wanting to waste food, huh.

"Well, make sure to eat enough. I"m gonna go take a wal." Lin Yi said as he turned for the door, making his way outside the villa. It"d only be awkward for Mengyao if he just stood there watching her eat.

"Yo, Yao Yao, have you noticed? Shield Guy"s actually a really nice guy- he"s strong, he cooks, and he… looks pretty handsome now that I look at him, don"t you think?" Yushu whispered as she put a spoonful of fried rice in her mouth.

"Really, Shu? A couple of noodles is all it takes to corrupt you? How can you speak up for him?!" Mengyao asked with her eyes wide, staring at Yushu in disbelief. "Are you in heat or something??"

"You"re the one who"s in heat!" Yushu retorted, her face red. "I"m just saying, you might regret it later when someone else takes him! Don"t you forget what Song Lingshan was doing to Shield Guy after just knowing him for two days, she seemed really into him!"

"Wha-? You think I"d fight over him with Lingshan?" Mengyao asked as she curled her lips. "Didn"t you see how easy Song Lingshan managed to seduce him, he"s nothing special, okay? Just a pervy guy!"

Yushu, on the other hand, was feeling depressed upon mentioning Song Lingshan- what did her brother see in this woman? He"d be in a fit if he found out about Lin Yi and her……

"Achooo!" Lin Yi sneezed the moment he stepped outside. What was with him recently? Had he caught a cold? Lin Yi, naturally, had no idea that the two girls inside were just talking about him.

It was Lin Yi"s third day in the villa, but it was the first time he"d stepped out- the entire area was obviously for rich families to live in.

At that thought, Lin Yi contemplated on Yushu"s family background- he"d never seen her parents before, and the girl lived in a villa all by herself. Clearly not born into normal means.

A black Ferrari sped in Lin Yi"s direction from some distance away, rumbling as it neared. It clearly slowed down upon reaching Lin Yi, and the driver inside peeked out curiously- he"d seen all the other young masters and young ladies in the area before, but Lin Yi was a very fresh face.

"Hey dude, you new here?" The young man asked.

"Me? Uh, yeah…" Lin Yi didn"t know what kind of person this guy was, but a simple greeting wouldn"t hurt.

"I"m Sun Yikai. I look after everyone here on Seabay Villas, so don"t hesitate to use my name whenever you find yourself in trouble!"

"I"ll keep that in mind, thanks." Lin Yi said with a nod as he looked at the pa.s.sioniate Sun Yikai. He didn"t need any protection or looking after, but the guy was approaching him with good intentions, and Lin Yi replied with a pleasant gesture of his own.

Lin Yi"s lack of reaction to his name told Yikai that he"d never heard of him. He smiled faintly, and didn"t say anything else. "Well, it"s been a while since I went to school- still have to register today. See ya."

"Bye." Lin Yi said, waving goodbye to Yikai.

With that, Yikai fired up his engine and disappeared into the distance.

Lin Yi understood where this Sun Yikai was coming from- he was probably pretty well known outside, with a powerful background, as well, taking care of his neighbors in the same district. Lin Yi was just one of these neighbors.

Yikai"s approach, however, could be perceived as c.o.c.ky as well as kind, but Lin Yi didn"t think of the guy as a jerk or anything of the sort.

A couple more cars sped by Lin Yi shortly after Yikai left. Other than the sports cars were Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, Bentley, and Rolls-Royce cars- all top tier vehicles.
