Urban Life: I Just Want To Work Hard!

Chapter 75: Shocking Change!

[Thank you, '159... Big Brother' for the generous 1000-point reward. I am extremely grateful and touched. Heart!]

Upon hearing Xiaotong's words, Xiaonan nodded slightly in agreement.

Indeed, although the walking pace was similar to usual, it was slightly slower and the steps were smaller.

However, as professional bodyguards, they were able to notice these subtle differences.

Lin Jiayin, who had her back turned to them, twitched her lips twice, while Yunwu, who was sitting by the window, unconsciously put down her crossed legs.

Suppressing the urge to kick Xiaotong out directly, Lin Jiayin took a deep breath and said, "It's okay, that's not why I called you here..."

Xiaotong immediately raised her head and dared not scrutinize anymore, saying, "Yes, General Lin."

Waving her hand, Lin Jiayin turned her head to look at the location of the incense and said, "Take that thing away and have it checked and tested."

"Yes." Xiaotong didn't ask any more questions this time, showing her understanding.

Yunwu took the initiative to ask, "Did you see Mubai?"

Xiaotong and Xiaonan glanced at each other. After they sent Lin Jiayin back last night, Yunwu and Lin Jiayin told them to rest as well.

They registered the four rooms next door, across the hall, downstairs, and upstairs.

They stayed in the room next door, while the remaining three rooms were for the people Lin Jiayin and Yunwu were secretly protecting.

In addition, with Li Mubai present last night, they didn't dare to deliberately listen to any sounds. They only resumed their duties at 6:30 this morning.

Now... Li Mubai is actually gone???

Xiaonan shook her head.

Yunwu also took out her coat and took out Yunlingxing's phone.

After considering for a while, she dialed Li Mubai's number.

The phone rang for more than sixty seconds before the service provider automatically rejected the call. Yunwu's worried expression finally let go as she put down the phone.

Lin Jiayin's expression became slightly more serious as she turned her head to look at Xiaotong. "What did Mubai eat today?"

Xiaotong's expression became complicated as she glanced at Lin Jiayin.

"General Lin, he didn't order anything today..."

Lin Jiayin and Yunwu exchanged a glance and fell into a slight silence.

Although they didn't like each other, Lin Jiayin and Yunwu both understood that they were temporarily connected to each other unavoidably.

Because of... Li Mubai.

The subconscious mind does not lie.

Li Mubai softly uttered their own names last night, as well as each other's names.

This indicates that they are currently in a situation where they are evenly matched. If they want to gain an advantage, they must show more care, more attention to detail, and even... seize a perfect opportunity to leave a deep impression in Li Mubai's heart!

They were both happy, but at the same time, unhappy.

Yun Wuyue was happy because she had taken on so much for Li Mubai, and Li Mubai still had feelings for her. She was happy. She was unhappy because Lin Jiayin was causing trouble. She had been trying to reconcile, and it would have been easier without Lin Jiayin's interference.

For example, last night, it was very likely that they were cuddling together, talking about their feelings.

Lin Jiayin was happy because she felt that everything she had done for Li Mubai was worth it, at least she had a place in Li Mubai's heart. She was happy. She was unhappy because of Yun Wuyue, who kept hurting Li Mubai's heart and still clung to him.

If it weren't for Yun Wuyue, she and Li Mubai would probably have gotten married a long time ago and brought Li Mubai home in a grand manner!

And it would definitely be a wedding of the century!

******

There was no need to hide anymore. Lin Jiayin spoke again, "Where is Mubai now?"

Xiao Nan volunteered, "He's at Jiuzhou Art Academy. He hasn't moved for almost four hours."

Xiao Tong glanced at Lin Jiayin and added, "Today, Mr. Lin spent 60 yuan. 47 yuan was spent at the convenience store downstairs, and the remaining 13 yuan was spent at three pharmacies and a mental hospital."

Yun Wuyue had already stood up from the sofa.

She called Li Mubai again using Yun Lianxing's phone... It rang for about sixty seconds.

"Sorry, the user you are trying to reach is not available at the moment. Please try again later..."

Lin Jiayin hugged her chest.

Suddenly!

Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin grabbed their coats and ran out of the door!!!

And both of them had shocked expressions!

Xiao Nan and Xiao Tong had no time to hesitate.

They almost flew to the elevator, and Yun Wuyue frantically pressed the down button.

Lin Jiayin clenched her fists, as if praying for something.

Xiao Tong and Xiao Nan exchanged glances and finally realized something, their bodies shivering.

"Ding~" The elevator door opened, and the four of them rushed in. After pressing the first floor button, they frantically pressed the close door button.

"It can't be... It shouldn't be."

"What other medicine besides that one would be so cheap at a mental hospital?" Yun Wuyue's face was turning pale.

Sleeping pills are prescription drugs that are generally not available for purchase. Regular pharmacies sell sleeping pills in small quantities, while mental hospitals can sell more if they have the corresponding patients and prescriptions.

Most importantly, only sleeping pills are priced so cheaply.

After visiting several pharmacies and mental hospitals, Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin couldn't think of any other possibilities!

"Damn it! I should have thought of it earlier!" Yun Wuyue clenched her fist and made a loud sound.

Lin Jiayin couldn't help but punch the elevator's metal wall.

Yun Wuyue spoke the words she wanted to say.

Yes.

It should have been expected earlier.

Li Mubai, such an affectionate and innocent person, woke up today and suddenly encountered such a thing!

I'm afraid he feels that life has become directly gloomy.

The most important thing is, Li Mubai is still a virgin!!!

If it were any other man, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to accept such a thing.

They couldn't imagine what kind of terrible psychological shadow this incident would cause Li Mubai.

Will he have nightmares every rainy night from now on?

From now on, will they and Li Mubai be separated by an insurmountable distance?

What if...

If...

If Li Mubai really took the medicine and couldn't be saved...

Lin Jiayin and Yun Wuyue felt their heads buzzing and their vision turning black.

Xiao Tong and Xiao Nan also had pale expressions as they held onto their boss's arm.

Yun Wuyue tightly bit her lip and shook off Xiao Nan's support.

Lin Jiayin even took a big step forward, obviously waiting for the elevator door to open so she could rush out and save the person!

Finally...

With a "ding," Lin Jiayin and Yun Wuyue almost sprinted out of the elevator, running towards the exit.

Xiao Nan and Xiao Tong also understood, waving at the person they were secretly protecting, and immediately followed Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin onto the car.

"Xiao Feng, drive as fast as you can, don't worry about the red lights. Xiao Nan, call the traffic police and report our license plate number."

Before they even settled in the Rolls-Royce, Yun Feng, who had realized the situation, immediately stepped on the accelerator.

The Bentley behind them was not slow either, directly flying past the road.

The car horns blared, showing no intention of giving way. When the vehicles speeding on the road heard the honking and saw the license plate and brand of the cars, they silently stopped.

Being valued by Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin to drive, there was no need to doubt their driving skills.

Since they had given the order, there was no need to worry about red lights, and even going against the traffic was arranged.

The journey can be described as lightning fast. The originally estimated half an hour journey was shortened to just over ten minutes by the Rolls-Royce and Bentley.

They directly rushed to Li Mubai's dormitory building. Without waiting for the car to stop, they ignored the gaze of the dormitory caretaker.

Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin rushed up.

Xiao Nan and Xiao Tong each guarded the car, with one explaining to the dormitory caretaker.

When Yun Wuyue and Lin Jiayin arrived at Li Mubai's door, they didn't care about the lock anymore. Yun Wuyue kicked open the wooden door with one foot, causing the iron lock to shatter and the latch to fly into the room with a "ding" sound.

Just one glance and Lin Jiayin and Yun Wuyue almost fell down. They saw Li Mubai lying on the bed, quiet like a dead person. His handsome cheeks were even paler than white paper, almost turning blue.

When Lin Jiayin saw the small medicine bottle on the coffee table, her heart sank into an ice cave. Trembling, she picked it up, repeating in her mind thousands of times: "Please don't be... please don't be...". It seemed that her wishes had been defied.

Before Lin Jiayin could react, Yun Wuyue had already rushed to the bedside, and another identical bottle almost took Lin Jiayin's breath away.

She quickly walked over and picked up the second small medicine bottle and the piece of paper. Lin Jiayin felt her heart completely still, making it difficult for her to breathe.

Because on that piece of paper were two words.

A suicide note.

The characters were as captivating as Li Mubai himself, but clearly filled with a sense of deathly silence and a sharp hatred.

At this moment, Yun Wuyue had already lifted Li Mubai horizontally.

"Hold on!"

"The hospital is not far!"

"Mubai, can you hear me? It's me, Wu!"

Lin Jiayin, her face pale, followed behind Li Mubai: "Get... get in your car, there's more space in the back!"

Yun Wuyue didn't respond, tightly holding Li Mubai in his arms. They descended the stairs at a speed no slower than Lin Jiayin's.

Lin Jiayin helped open the car door, and Yun Wuyue carried Li Mubai and got in.

Lin Jiayin didn't get into the Bentley, but sat in the passenger seat of the Rolls-Royce and shouted to Yun Feng, "Drive! (Damn it)"

Xiao Nan and Xiao Tong saw the Rolls-Royce speeding away again, so they quickly got into the Bentley and followed in a flash.

Although it was already time for school to be over today, there were still some students who didn't have classes at this particular time. Li Mubai's face was highly recognizable. Plus, he had just made a big splash last night, solidifying his position as the school's number one heartthrob, with both looks and talent!

Inevitably, a question arose in their minds: What happened to Li Mubai?

Just now... his pale face, it felt like... he was already dead."

One person sent a message on Feixin asking if there were any specific details, and then ten people asked, and then a hundred...

Until the whole school knew...
