Chapter 128: Extremely Worried
On the other side, Huo Juncheng had just arrived at the hospital when he saw Lin Yilan with her left hand wrapped in bandages. "What happened? Aren't you a martial arts expert? How did you get injured?"
Lin Yilan had originally wanted to catch up with Zheng Ronglan and Chu Siran, but she heard Huo Juncheng's voice. Thinking that Chu Siran was with Zheng Ronglan, Lin Yilan felt relieved and stopped trying to catch up.
"I didn't expect there were so many branches on the mountain. I accidentally stepped on a dead tree." Lin Yilan curled her lips in grievance.
But Huo Juncheng didn't seem to buy it. God knows how worried he was when Zheng Ronglan called him to inform him that Lin Yilan was in trouble. This woman really made him worry.
"It was you who came up with the idea of going to the mountains outside the city, wasn't it?"
Lin Yilan glanced at Huo Juncheng and tried to read something from his face, but Huo Juncheng's face was stern the whole time, and his expression was the same as usual, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
Lin Yilan had no choice but to respond obediently: "Yeah."
"I knew it was your evil idea. You have nothing to do. Do you know how dangerous the suburbs are? You and Chu Siran actually went there without any preparation. Luckily, you only injured your arm, otherwise you would have spent the New Year in the hospital."
Lin Yilan could hear the anger in Huo Juncheng's words, but since it was really her fault this time, she had no choice but to start to soften her stance: "It's not as exaggerated as you say. I've reflected deeply on this. It was my fault for not paying attention. I thought it was okay..."
"Do you think it's okay if it's okay? If you think it's okay if it's okay, your arm wouldn't be injured." Huo Juncheng said, and deliberately poked Lin Yilan's arm.
Lin Yilan couldn't help but cry out in pain. Considering her agility, this was the first time such an accident had happened to her. She must have neglected her training recently.
Thinking of this, Lin Yilan felt that she should practice hard. As for the upper-class circles, it would be better for her not to get involved.
Seeing that Huo Juncheng was about to continue, Lin Yilan quickly interrupted him: "I promise it won't happen again. I must have not practiced martial arts well recently and my skills have regressed. Next time I will definitely be able to climb to the top of the mountain."
Huo Juncheng originally thought that Lin Yilan had truly realized her mistake, but he didn't expect that the result of Lin Yilan's reflection was that she hadn't been practicing well recently!
Huo Juncheng closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
After a long pause, he continued, "You won't have another chance. This time you broke your arm, but what about next time? Will it be your leg or your head?"
"I already told you this won't happen again, you're questioning my martial arts skills!"
"I don't need to question your martial arts skills. The facts are before my eyes. I will never allow you to get hurt again!"
Lin Yilan wanted to argue again, but Huo Juncheng saw her stubborn look and knew that he couldn't win the argument with her, so he simply gave up trying to reason with her.
"I'm not in the mood to debate this. If you ever think of going to the suburbs again, I'll lock you up at the Huo family's!"
"Me!" Lin Yilan wanted to argue with Huo Juncheng again, and his intention was clearly to limit her freedom. However, her freedom was her own, and even if Huo Juncheng really wanted to restrict her freedom, he might not have the ability to do so.
Thinking of this, she was too lazy to argue with Huo Juncheng anymore. Huo Juncheng was angry anyway, so let him say whatever he wanted.
Lin Yilan had a good idea, but she didn't know that with the advancement of modern technology, something called mobile phone positioning has emerged. But that's a story for later.
Huo Juncheng saw that Lin Yilan hadn't spoken for most of the day, and his anger gradually subsided. He was also worried about Lin Yilan, so his tone was so bad.
"Come home with me. Grandma is still worried about your injury."
"oh."
Lin Yilan followed Huo Juncheng obediently and returned to the Huo family.
This not-so-pleasant mountain climbing trip ended with Chu Siran and Lin Yilan getting injured.
Lin Yilan had thought Huo Juncheng was just joking, but she hadn't expected him to actually send two bodyguards to restrict her freedom. He claimed it was to protect her safety, but did she really need someone else to protect her safety?
It simply left her speechless.
"I say, can you two stop following me?" Lin Yilan looked at the bodyguards in black suits on both sides and shook her head helplessly.
She wanted to go to KTV with Chu Siran to sing, but the two bodyguards were very dedicated to their duties. Except for the time when she went to the bathroom, they never left her side.
"My apologies, Ma'am. The president has instructed us to protect your safety at all times, so we cannot comply with your previous instructions."
"I don't need you two to protect my safety. If it weren't for the injured arm, you two would be no match for me. How can you still want to protect my safety?"
"We know the Madam is different from other women, but the President gave us orders, and we are only following them."
Lin Yilan sighed helplessly. She knew there was no point in talking to these two bodyguards. But counting yesterday and this morning, they had been following her for a whole day and a half, practically without food or water.
Lin Yilan, who has always been accustomed to a free and easy life, is really not used to it.
"You don't believe in my martial arts prowess, do you? I'm telling you, the two moves you know were taught to me by my master when I was a child. Even with my injured arm, you would never be my match."
The two bodyguards heard Lin Yilan say this and understood what she meant. It was nothing more than that she didn't need their protection, but they also obeyed Huo Juncheng's orders. Regardless of whether Lin Yilan needed their protection or not, they had to stay by her side all the time.
Seeing that the two bodyguards remained indifferent, Lin Yilan knew that no matter what she said, it would not change the situation. It seemed that since words didn't work, she had no choice but to resort to force.
Thinking of this, Lin Yilan stretched out her uninjured right hand and quickly flew towards one of the bodyguards. Lin Yilan's punch was extremely fast, but the two bodyguards were also professionally trained. They turned sideways and dodged Lin Yilan's attack.
Lin Yilan was just testing the bodyguard and did not launch any further attack.
"Not bad."
Hearing Lin Yilan's praise, the bodyguard leaned forward slightly and said, "Madam, you are so kind."
Lin Yilan swung her arms. Although there was a smile between her brows, there was also murderous intent: "Although your skills are good, unfortunately, you are still no match for me."
After Lin Yilan finished speaking, she didn't wait for the bodyguard to react and punched again. The bodyguard still used the same moves to attack Lin Yilan. Seeing this, Lin Yilan raised his right foot and attacked.
Although the bodyguard dodged again, he could not withstand Lin Yilan's frequent attacks. In the end, the bodyguard fell to the ground with some blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
"I'm sorry, you made me do this."
