Chapter 564: Chapter 553 Trouble Comes Knocking Again
If we go by what Lin Yun said, does that mean their entire research institute has beca farming operation?
"Lin Yun, skip this topic. I'm not going to compete, I'm quite satisfied with my current job," Qiao Jing said.
Being unable to reveal her identity, she could only resort to farming for the tbeing, which wasn’t so bad.
Lin Yun glared at Qiao Jing, his anger boiling with no outlet for release. He couldn't just smash things, nor could
he strike someone, so what could he do...
In a moment of heated anger, he reached up and tore off the fake beard glued to his face, hoping it would relieve
his frustration.
But because he pulled too hard, he ended up hurting his skin, and he yelped in pain.
Seeing this, Qiao Jing couldn't help but snicker.
Lin Yun, clutching his chin in pain, glared fiercely at Qiao Jing and cursed,
"What are you laughing at? Do you think you'll be able to laugh while farming? You reject a better, more
comfortable life for farming!"
He paused and glanced at Zeng Xiangyang.
"You little brat! Do you have any idea what the Zhan Family is like to let Qiao Jing go off and farm?"
Zeng Xiangyang, who had been completely baffled the whole time, finally understood Lin Yun’s point and
immediately began to defend Zhan Qipei.
"Brother Lin Yun, you've got it wrong. My cousin and aunt like my master a lot. They wouldn't bear to have my
master do hard labor, much less have my master go farming! And about that trending topic last time, it was my
cousin—"
His words were cut short by a look from Qiao Jing.
Zeng Xiangyang immediately shut his mouth, not continuing with what he was about to say.
Although he didn’t know why his master stopped him from finishing, he knew it was right to listen to his master.
If his cousin learned that Brother Lin Yun thought his master was suffering at the Zhan Family, his face would
probably turn gloomy and transform into the Cold-faced Yama.
Seeing that Zeng Xiangyang didn’t continue, Qiao Jing’s furrowed brows relaxed.
It was best not to let Lin Yun know about the retraction of the trending topic; otherwise, the brat would surely
start on about not needing help to retract it.
After hearing Zeng Xiangyang'’s words, Lin Yun felt a twinge of doubt. What was that unfinished statement
about?
However, he focused on the part of the statement Zeng Xiangyang did finish, not dwelling on the unfinished part
and looked at Qiao Jing with a half-believing stare.

"Really? Then what's this about the farming you mentioned?"
Qiao Jing, exasperated, pressed a hand to her forehead and then frowned, saying coldly,
"Let’s drop that subject."
If they continued, she worried it might blow her cover. It was enough that Lin Yun knew she did more than just
farm.
At that moment, the boss brought over the last of the grilled skewers and placed them on the table.
"Lin Yun, you're not going to run into any trouble again this time, are you?"
Lin Yun put away his unfriendly expression, but upon remembering the last incident, his face inadvertently
soured again.
"No, last twas just an accident."
The boss chuckled twice, then looked at Qiao Jing.
"Your friend is really good at fighting! Such skill in a girl is amazing. If your friend hadn’t been there last time, |
probably would've been beaten to a pulp."
Qiao Jing nodded lightly at the boss in greeting.
"You flatter me, boss. | just know a little self-defense, that’s all."
The boss laughed heartily again.
"Your skills are better than a big guy like me, and it’s not just self-defense. | noticed that you aim for spots that
cause a lot of pain but aren’t lethal when you hit someone.
"In this world, there are very few who fight without intending to kill, and to still keep your wits about you amid
such a fierce fight, that's really rare!"
A faint smile appeared on Qiao Jing’s face as she shook her head.
Lin Yun snorted coldly.
"If I had stepped in, | would have been even more fearsthan her. | don’t understand, when other girls face
danger, they hide behind a guy, but you— you rush forward. Next tsomething like this happens, stand
behind me; can’t | protect you?"
Qiao Jing pursed her red lips and spoke slowly.
"I don’t need anyone to protect me."
She knew that Lin Yun still cared about others, he just wasn’t good at showing it.
The words she spoke cfrom her heart; if possible, she hoped to never tire, to always handle everything on
her own.
But she wasn’t a robot and would inevitably feel tired sometimes. Before meeting Zhan Qipei, the only places
where she could rest and rely on were her bed or couch at home.
Since Zhan Qipei’s appearance, it seemed she had rested beside the man more than once.
Just as Qiao Jing was deep in thought, several people suddenly entered through the door, just like last time,
those swaggering individuals with hair dyed in all sorts of colors.
Green Hair, walking at the front, hadn't even reached the door before he started shouting.
"Old Yang, it's the sas before, we'll run a tab today, and pay next time."
As soon as the owner, known as Old Yang, heard this, his face immediately darkened, and he said unequivocally:
"No way."
Upon hearing this, Green Hair directly spat out the toothpick in his mouth and, exuding an aggressive aura, led
his underlings inside.
The owner stood up straight, preparing to confront the troublemakers.
Qiao Jing’s heart skipped a beat, telling her this wouldn't be simple.
Every tshe saw someone looking so imposing, she knew something was off. She reached out a hand and
nudged Zeng Xiangyang beside her.
"Stay in the kitchen and don’t cout."
No matter what, if these people were looking for trouble with the owner, she was going to help.
After all, last tthe owner had cout without hesitation to help them, so she would return the favor this
time.
Upon seeing the situation, Zeng Xiangyang grabbed his phone and ran to the kitchen.
Why were they so unlucky?

But when she looked at Lin Yun, she noticed something off about his expression.
Lin Yun leaned inwards, moving from a position near the entrance to one against the wall, and he even seemed
to want to face the wall?
With a puzzled look, Qiao Jing gazed at him and asked in a lowered voice,
"Lin Yun? What's wrong with you?"
Lin Yun didn’t speak but moved closer to the wall instead and pressed his hat down further, looking like he didn’t
want to be recognized.
