Although she appeared to look weak and delicate, Jian Yiling was confident and determined when she spoke.
She liked to get things done by herself.
Zhai Yunsheng, who was sitting on the couch, started to frown.
However, he didn’t question Jian Yiling about the matter. Instead, he asked one of his bodyguards to come over to him. He whispered a few words to him and then the bodyguard left.
Not long after, the bodyguard returned. He reported the results of the investigation to Zhai Yunsheng.
Then, Zhai Yunsheng got up. He walked over to Jian Yiling and looked at the little rabbit who wore a white and fluffy coat. He directly recounted the incident to Jian Yiling.
“Your desk-mate Hu Jiaojiao just got hospitalized. The reason for the hospitalization is because she got harassed by a bunch of thugs. However, she isn’t suffering any major injuries.”
As Hu Jiaojiao hadn’t suffered any major injuries, the three thugs had only gotten fined and sentenced to 15 days of detainment.
However, Zhai Yunsheng knew that Jian Yiling planned to do something more.
Zhai Yunsheng smiled. His lips curled up in an evil way, “What about this? I’ll make a deal with you. If you do me a favor, I’ll help you with this. This is fair and impartial. It’s mutually beneficial and we won’t owe each other anything.”
Jian Yiling raised her head and looked up at Zhai Yunsheng. She saw that he was holding back his laughter. His eyes looked sharp and perceptive.
Zhai Yunsheng added, “Either way if you pay someone to do this, you will get the same outcome. And thus, it’s better for you to make this deal with me. I’m more useful than the average person.”
What Zhai Yunsheng said made sense. In both cases, she had to find someone to do this.
In theory, it was the same.
And in fact, Zhai Yunsheng was much more useful than an average person.
“What’s the trade?” Jian Yiling asked.
Zhai Yunsheng pointed at his gauze-wrapped arm. “Treat my arm. Make sure that it won’t leave a scar. Don’t let it become ugly.”
“But, I already…”
Zhai Yunsheng interrupted Jian Yiling’s words, “You already? You already planned to do that? You planned to make sure that it wouldn’t scar? I’m just like you. I don’t like to owe people anything. So technically, it’s not a small matter to me either. In terms of a trade, I think it’s fair.”
Strictly speaking, this was true. Jian Yiling’s scar removal cream hadn’t yet been released to the public.
And thus, it was not impractical to have such a deal.
The expression on her small face was serious.
Zhai Yunsheng looked at Jian Yiling who was deep in thought.
After a while, Jian Yiling nodded and agreed to Zhai Yunsheng’s offer.
“Okay.”
Then, Zhai Yunsheng turned his head and looked at Yu Xi, “He will be your supporting character. He will follow you around and help you out if you need it.”
Yu Xi had question marks appear on his face.
He hadn’t even said anything about this yet!
Since when did Master Sheng arrange this?
Why is he following Jian Yiling around? Why does this sound like he’s a lackey?

After a moment, Yu Xi conceded with his thoughts. This is fine. It’s not the first time that he’s done such a thing! He’s gotten used to it already.

When they played ‘Zerg Invasion’, he had also been the supporting character.
Yu Xi cleared his mind before he said, “Yep, that’s me. I’ll support you.”
Then, Yu Xi turned around and asked Zhai Yunsheng, “Master Sheng, what do you want me to do?”
“Go home and sleep. We will talk about this tomorrow morning.”
It was already nine o’clock. They could discuss matters tomorrow morning. For now, sleep was more important.
Then, Zhai Yunsheng turned around to speak to Jian Yiling again. His tone was serious as he said, “Don’t be a rabbit and have red eyes. Go and sleep. Deal with everything else in the morning. Leave this to me.”
Although Zhai Yunsheng’s appearance made him seem like a hedonistic person, the words he said were still quite respectable. The words made it sound like someone could place their trust in him.
“Okay.”
Jian Yiling agreed to him. She knew that she should go to sleep. If she didn’t, it would negatively impact her performance in the operation tomorrow.
However, Jian Yiling was not sure whether or not the matter today could be dealt with by tomorrow morning. She didn’t know whether or not it would impact the surgery tomorrow afternoon.
