From Sidekick to Bigshot

Chapter 75: Protect Yiling (2)

“What are you doing? This is an emergency!”

Luo Xiuen had grabbed Cheng Yi by the collar before she forcibly dragged him back. She had pulled back a man that was 1.8 meters in height with a single hand.

Luo Xiuen’s height was around 1.76 meters. Her height was a bit taller than that of an average man.

Her body was fit and in shape. At the moment, the white coat she wore had covered her physique. However, Cheng Yi had seen her at the gym. As he watched her work out, he had felt inferior and ashamed of himself.

“Sister En, please let go! I have an emergency to deal with,” Cheng Yi said in a hurry.

“What’s the emergency?” Luo Xiuen asked. She stopped joking with Cheng Yi when she saw that he was indeed anxious and getting quite angry.

“The new girl we signed a contract with is in a bit of trouble. I’m heading over there to help.”

“What?! Then what are you waiting for? Why are you dawdling around?! Are you even a man!”

Without any further ado, Luo Xiuen dragged Cheng Yi out the door.

It was not every day that the research institute signed a prodigy. Jian Yiling had published a paper under the institute’s name on the first day she had joined.

As of now, all the older researchers were excited about the new thesis that had been submitted to the academic institution. In their excitement, they had forgotten to eat and drink.

And someone dared to cause trouble for their talented newbie?

She, Luo Xiuen, would be the first to disagree with that!

Cheng Yi couldn’t say a single word. He had been delayed by her, yet… He was called dawdling…

“Umm… Sister En. I need to bring two security guards…”

“Why do you need security guards? Is older sister not good enough?”

“Sure it’s enough… But…”

Luo Xiuen was indeed enough. She could probably fight an entire group of security personnel. That was a fact that Cheng Yi didn’t dare to doubt.

“However, isn’t it better to bring a few more people to support us?”

“Oh, you’re right! Then why are we only bringing two? We should bring all of them! Bring out all the bulletproof cars at our terminal! We need to show that girl the strength of the security force is at Huiling!”

You couldn’t compare their research institute with any small research center.

If they were to brag a little, then they’d declare that no one in the entirety of Hengyuan City would dare to mess their institution.

Of course, this disregarded the situation in which someone had the confidence that they and their loved ones would never get sick. But who had confidence in that?

After Jian Yiling sent the message to Cheng Yi, she had received a text from another person.

[Dr. F.S, it seems as though you’re in a little trouble. I can help you deal with them. I’ll ensure that you won’t ever have to hear about the matter again. Just treat it as a deposit. Of course, if you want, we can do much more than just that.]

As soon as the other party had discovered that Jian Yiling was in some trouble, they had immediately sent her a message. This was done in an attempt to convince Jian Yiling to agree to what they had mentioned to her before.

[No need, thank you.] Jian Yiling replied. She was straightforward and blunt in her rejection.

[Dr. F.S, is it really that difficult for you to agree with that matter?] The other party replied helplessly. It seemed as though they really needed the help of Jian Yiling.

[I’m not available for the time being.]

[Dr. F.S, we really need your help. This is related to the life of our Master. As long as you can help him, we’ll meet any conditions you ask.]

[No thanks.]

Her reply remained simple and concise. She didn’t seem moved at all by the other party’s offer.

Two security personnel from Cheng Yi were enough to deal with the trouble at the school gates. Jian Yiling didn’t need more help from anyone else.

As the other party had failed to persuade Jian Yiling, they had stopped sending her messages.

It was obvious that the other party didn’t want to make Jian Yiling angry. Although they needed her help, they weren’t planning to force her.

However, it was also obvious that the other party wasn’t going to give up any opportunity to contact Jian Yiling.
