Chapter 18.1 Ji Lin, did I eat your rice ? ? ?

Chapter 18.1 Ji Lin, did I eat your rice ? ? ? ¹ eating rice can refer to eating without paying, or living off others.

When Bai Duanduan returned to the office, she only felt a little headache. Song Lianjun’s case was completely suppressed due to Ji Lin’ master trick. Bai Duanduan was upset. Seeing that it was time to get off work, she put down the documents, picked up her bag and left for home.

The driver was a middle-aged man who loved to chat. From the moment Bai Duanduan got into the taxi, he asked a string of questions, “Are you a local?” “Are you seeing anyone?” “Where do you work?” Bai Duanduan felt a little uncomfortable, so she only gave a few perfunctory words in reply and closed her eyes to rest.

The driver was quiet for a while, but before long, he shouted again, “Girl, why does it look like there’s a car following you?”

Who could be following her?

Bai Duanduan only regarded it as an excuse for the driver to have nothing to say, and ignored it. She only nodded her head and motioned the driver to keep driving. 

This was the peak time when the residents of the community were returning home one after another. The elevator needed to be waited for. Bai Duanduan stood in a daze in the hallway, watching as many people poured in one after another. She didn’t pay any attention, but only caught a glimpse of a somewhat familiar figure who was wearing a duck-tongue hat that completely covered his cheeks in the sweltering heat of the lift. The hat style was for young kids, but the person who was wearing it looked as old as a sack in his old style black jacket.

It was just that Bai Duanduan didn’t give much thought to it, because soon, she saw Ji Lin walking into the hallway corridor.

She looked at that man for a moment and just wanted to win him over.

It was probably because her gaze was too direct that Ji Lin frowned and looked at her coldly. The meaning of which could not be more obvious. 

Fine, Bai Duanduan consciously and obediently stepped back two steps, a little farther away from Ji Lin. But in the next second, Ji Lin suddenly paused and quickly pulled away from the crowd and walked towards her in big strides. He grabbed Bai Duanduan’s hand, and pulled her towards himself. Bai Duanduan was almost taken aback by the sudden turn of events. He hugged her vigorously from the side, and violently took her whole person into his arms .……

? ? ?

What the hell kind of divine twist was that?

It was also at this moment that Bai Duanduan finally knew that the answer to the question she had just imagined a moment ago was wrong—

Even if she knew that the opponent was Ji Lin, who was well-known from far and wide, her heart was beating faster when she was hugged by this man. 

All of this happened within a minute, but it was like a slow-motion shot for Bai Duanduan. She was being held in Ji Lin’s arms, and when she raised her head slightly, she could see Ji Lin’s face at a  close distance. His eyebrows were tightly furrowed and his beautiful eyes were looking at Bai Duanduan. At such a close distance, Bai Duanduan could even clearly see her reflection in his pupils – only herself.

First he warns her with his eyes to stay away from him and she obediently backs off. But then he really couldn’t help but finally realise that he had turned out to be unknowingly attracted to herself early on? ? ?

Or did Ji Lin suddenly have a split personality? ? ?

Between the sparks and flints, Ji Lin looked at Bai Duanduan for an instant, and finally opened his two thin lips slightly, condescending to speak——

“Bai Duanduan, you are so damn…” 

It’s over, Bai Duanduan thought. Could it be that the next sentence he would say was the classic line ‘You are so damn sweet’ ? ？ ？ 

Then in that situation how was she supposed to say no to him ? ? ?

……

The result was that before Bai Duanduan could finish her beautiful dreamy imagination, Ji Lin’s voice came over.

“You’re so damn stupid. Don’t you realise that someone suddenly rushed over to hide behind you?”

? ? ? ?

Oh.

Bai Duanduan thought that he was really worried and bothered.

“Call the police! Call the police!”

“This man have a knife in his hand!” 

“Hurry up, he’s trying to run away! Everyone hurry up and restrain him!”

…..

Almost in the next second, the surrounding crowd erupted into noise and screams. Bai Duanduan was a little dazed, not knowing what was happening around her. 

Ji Lin has a pair of powerful arms and a solid back. Bai Duanduan’s face was almost completely submerged in his arms. She couldn’t see what was happening around her. But she heard a few neighbors around her who were waiting for the elevator react aggressively, and someone shouted, “Got him! Caught him!” The scene was very chaotic, but Bai Duanduan seemed to be placed in a safer place beyond the chaos. She could only smell the eau de toilette coming from the man holding her. It was a pure and subtle fragrance that reminded Bai Duanduan of the ocean.

It smells good.

Because of the holding posture, at this moment, Ji Lin’s hands were touching the skin of Bai Duanduan’s neck. Those were a pair of hands with low body temperature. The slight coldness passed over and made Bai Duanduan aware that she was in direct physical contact with his skin. Her skin turned out to be even hotter in comparison. From the moment he pulled Bai Duanduan to now, although Ji Lin’s actions were strong enough, they were not aggressive and even made people feel a little tender and cared for.

Of course, soon Bai Duanduan realized that this was just her own illusion –

Because the owner of this hand quickly pushed Bai Duanduan away, and changed back to his usual hateful appearance. 

Ji Lin’s face was expressionless as he said, “Can you get off me now?”

“……”

He added sincerely, “You’re a bit heavy.”

Bai Duanduan’s face changed colour from red to white as she hurriedly and nimbly popped out of Ji Lin’s arms.

“You pair of dogs! Sure enough, you collabed together a long time ago. Bai Duanduan, you b!tch, heaven will strike you down and you will not have an easy death!”

“I gave you so much money, yet you got together with this man!”

And almost at the same time, the man who was being held up and twisted by two men not far away began to grit his teeth and holler a string of curses. Still wearing the duck-tongue hat that covered his face, and his black clothes made his whole being appear even more depressing.

Ji Lin gave Bai Duanduan a look, “He just tried to stab you with a knife.”

This scene was almost like the scene of a love killing caused due to emotional disputes. The crowd at the elevator entrance also whispered, occasionally switching glance from Bai Duanduan to Ji Lin with a meaningful and complicated gaze.

Sh!t, it was instantly misunderstood by the neighbours as a love triangle!

But that was not the right time to clear the air. Bai Duanduan looked at the man with the duck-tongue hat who had just tried to commit murder, and finally knew why she thought his figure seemed a bit familiar before. She pursed her lips and went forward to remove the other party’s duck-tongue hat, “Song Lianjun, what the hell is wrong with you?”
