Tang Yun was hesitating, she had both good and bad thoughts. Could it be that Lin Yi doesn't want to be with her anymore? His relationship with Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu were growing stronger. No matter how she compares their qualities, she still felt inferior to them. It could be possible that he was planning on breaking up with her!
Even though this is the very first time Lin Yi had asked her out on a date to a high-class restaurant, Tang Yun had a terrible feeling on the inside. Her heart rate increased.
"Yunyun my injuries haven't recovered completely!" Lin Yi decided to cut right to the point. He was being frank with Tang Yun. There was no need for any flowery words between them. She had heard from Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu about his status, but Lin Yi didn't get to tell her yet. Lin Yi went straight to the point "Even if my injuries are healed, my powers are gone…"
"Ah? Are you in danger?" Tang Yun was shocked by the sudden turn of events. She didn't expect this type of talk from Lin Yi. Most importantly, Lin Yi wasn't about to break up with her! It must be a serious injury for Lin Yi. It made Tang Yun even more worried about what was to follow next!
"There is no danger coming from my condition and injuries. But, if my enemies find out about my condition, then I'm afraid that I'll be in danger!" Lin Yi bitterly smiled.
"Oh, why are you telling this to me now? You shouldn't be telling anyone!" Tang Yun wasn't expecting this at all. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I will keep this a secret!"
"Ah… Yunyun, you misunderstand me," Lin Yi laughing it off. He could tell that Tang Yun was extremely nervous and worried for him, but remained calm.
"Misunderstand?" Tang Yun was confused.
"Yes, the reason why I'm telling you this is because I have resigned from being Chu Mengyao's bodyguard" Lin Yi replied.
Tang Yun continued to be surprised, but it was the happy type of surprise. So when Lin Yi had lost his power to protect himself, it was time for him to leave his position. Wasn't this exactly what Tang Yun had wanted?
"Then, where will you live from now?" Tang Yun's face burned red. "When my new house is done with the renovations, do you want to move in?"
"Ahh…" Lin Yi started to blush too when he looked at Tang Yun. His heart was moved. It wasn't easy for the shy Tang Yun to speak up like that. Lin Yi shook his head. "I told you before, that if my power doesn't return then my rivals will come looking for me. I don't want to drag you down…"
"Then you mean to say…" Tang Yun had an unexplainable tension that was just bubbling within her. Just like a big event was about to take place! The joy, she had felt when she heard the news that he had quit being a bodyguard, was gone.
"I have to leave Songshan City soon, I need to return to my village…" Lin Yi said his main purpose. He felt sorrow, but he had to come to terms with his decision. In the end, people will venture out and move away.
"You… You don't want me anymore? You don't want me?" Tang Yun felt her heartache. It was like a hammer banging down on her heart. Her heart started aching because deep down she knew this day would come, but she didn't think it would come so fast…
"It is not that I don't want you… it might be that you wouldn't want to be with me…" Lin Yi was shocked by the huge reaction from Tang Yun. From his impression, Tang Yun was a strong woman, but who would've thought that she was so weak-willed?
"I don't want you? Why wouldn't I want you?" Tang Yun wanted to cry. She was so upset that she couldn't comprehend from the hidden meaning behind Lin Yi's words. Lin Yi was being rather crafty.
"I don't have any power anymore, I can't be so cocky like before. We could probably be in poverty. Do you still want to be with me in that condition?" Lin Yi was able to confirm Tang Yun's feelings. Seems like the engagement ring wasn't a wasted purchase! There are some things that he has to be frank about before proposing!
"Lin Yi, I'll bite you to death!" Tang Yun teary-eyed staring at Lin Yi. "Do I look like the type of woman who is only there for the money? That's not me, that's my mom!"
Tang Yun wasn't thinking about what she was going to say when she used her mom as an example. But, it was the truth, her mom was quite greedy...
"Ah… Lin Yi sighed. He had to tell her the worst-case possibility. Tang Yun was a city girl. Would she be able to withstand the simple life of a villager? "My village is very desolate. There's no skyscrapers and not much variety of food selection, not much of anything really. You won't see many cars around, and only a few houses have phones. The common way of communication is by shouting at one another. Many of the houses are run down. We don't have indoor heating, so to heat up the house, we use firewood. There's no private bathroom, only a community bathroom… You are a girl, are you sure you can withstand that quality of life?"
"Of course I can! Don't forget that when I was living in the houses of shantytown, we gathered our own firewood for winter. I had to use the community bathroom daily, so there was no private bathroom at home! This lifestyle suits me! It was perfectly designed for me!" Tang Yun started speaking in a crazed tone.
"Haha… But, what happens if I can never recover my powers? You will have to spend your life with me in that village. Are you willing?" Lin Yi heard Tang Yun's words, he felt moved.
"I do! I am willing!" Tang Yun nodded. She never cared for whether if Lin Yi had his powers or not. She didn't even care if he had money. All she ever cared about was his personality.
"Okay, then I'll go back first. When you are finished with high school, you can continue college. Then come find me. Think of it as a cooldown period for you to think about your decision. I hope you didn't choose it on impulse" Lin Yi logically replied.
"I'm not acting on impulse," Tang Yun shook her head. "I'm speaking from my heart, I just need time to help my parents settle down… I will be marrying somewhere far away, so I need time to comfort them… But you aren't messing around with me, right? You won't reject me when that time comes?"
Tang Yun had recovered to her normal state of mind. She could tell that Lin Yi wasn't lying to her. He would have to leave soon and he needed her to figure out her future.
"Hm…" Lin Yi suddenly pulled out a beautiful small square box and placed it in front of Tang Yun. "I wouldn't. I have thought long and hard about how I should tell you. Now that I have finished what I needed to say… This is for you!"
Tang Yun was surprised, her heart raced. She didn't dare to open the box. It was a box that she had seen in dramas many times before. But, could it be an engagement ring?
Tang Yun was shaking as she picked up the box to open. The diamond reflected brilliantly off the lights in the room, the brightness was mesmerizing. Tang Yun's eyes lit up! It was an engagement ring! Tang Yun felt so moved. She felt so fortunate. She felt like the happiest woman on earth...
