Goddess of the Thousand Needles

Chapter 34 - Protective.

After checking the vaccine supplies, Guan Lin returned to Yu Jie's private room but he did not find Hao Yu's whereabouts. A pair of pretty eyes were staring at him, Guan Lin smilingly looked back at the woman who was now officially his lover.

"You've been awake a long time? Drink first, this..." Guan Lin gave the glass filled with water and accepted Yu Jie. The woman immediately gulped down the drinking water once it ran out.

"Give me the glass." Guan Lin took the glass from Yu Jie's hand then stored it on the nightstand.

"Is it better?" Guan Lin examined Yu Jie's forehead, "No fever, thank God."

Grep's!

Yu Jie wrapped his arms around Guan Lin's neck, "Thank you, I'm glad you scolded me earlier. I feel cared for and loved." Yu Jie buried his head in Guan Lin's chest.

Guan gently rubbed Yu Jie's back. "You know I've liked you for a long time, when I heard you got shot my heart was hurting. Jie Jie. I'm not seducing you, I must sound like I'm saying shit. But Jie Jie. Jie Jie...it seems like I really have fallen in love with you," Guan Lin hugged Yu Jie tightly, smirking the woman's head.

"Guan..." Yu Jie raised his head to look at Guan Lin's face without letting go of his embrace. "I still don't know what this feeling in my heart is for you, but I definitely think of you more often than Hao Yu. My heart is also always pounding when near you, even though when you are with Hao Yu there is also a strange sigh."

"Jie Jie! What do you mean.. You are beating me up with Hao Yu? You have feelings for that guy too?" Guan Lin was surprised.

"Haha, I admit that when you're with the two of you there are different feelings. With you I'm always misbehaving, always pounding and my eyes always want to see your face. But with Hao Yu I'm comfortable, you know.it's like family. How to call it, I'm confused too. But now I'm sure, my heart's pounding because of you." Yu Jie kissed Guan Lin's lips, before Guan Lin had time to deepen the kiss Yu Jie distanced his body.

"Jie's... Jie.." -..." Guan Lin swallowed the saliva with great difficulty, just now wanting more the woman instead dodged.

"Guan, you know I've been betrayed. I once lived to love one man with all my heart until I died, ignored that man. I know you won't understand what I'm saying, but Guan. I'm still-"

Guan Lin covered Yu Jie's lips cutting off Yu Jie's words with her lips, "I understand, I won't promise to always love you because that promise will imprint in your heart if one day I break it. Though I'm sure my whole life will be just you, only you. But let's just go. I won't always say I love you, I'll just prove it. So, our relationship should not be a burden to you. If one day I hurt you or you don't want this relationship anymore.I promise to let you go as you wish."

"Guan..." Yu Jie's eyes glazed over, why did he become a crybaby?

"It turns out you can cry too, I don't think a strong woman like you has any tears. It's a time of our happiness.why should we cry." Guan Lin's fingers wiped away the tears that would spill in the corner of Yu Jie's eyes.

"Want to eat or go home? I've checked the vaccine and antiviral supplies and that's a lot. Do you need her?" Guan Lin stroked Yu Jie's head fondly like that of a child.

"Some of the hospitals had called Jing Yi, they were asking for supplies. Tomorrow I'll have Jiao Long deliver her to some hospital, and to your father half."

"I can talk to Dad, if the hospital needs a lot of giving them first. My father sells only wants profit, this is your rule and Dad's so all this time I didn't dare to interfere, I'll make Dad understand as long as you allow me to interfere. I don't want to intrude on your privacy in business matters, but at least from now on involve me. Understood?" seeing Yu Jie nod Guan hugged back Yu Jie's body. "I'm not satisfied with hugging you. I've long dreamed of hugging you like this in my sleep. Haha...I can finally hug you now," Guan Lin tightened his embrace on Yu Jie's body.

"I'm hungry, let's eat somewhere. But because it's forbidden here and in the condition of my hands like this I can't eat in a restaurant." Yu Jie sighed.

"Come to my club, there whatever I'll provide for you. Jie Jie."

"One more time call me by that name," when he was first called by that name by Guan, Yu Jie liked him so much as if he was truly loved.

"My jie jie.. my woman, my only." Guan Lin dyed Yu Jie's cheeks in dismay.

"Graily! Let's go now, I'm hungry." Yu Jie pushed Guan Lin's body. "Aghhhh!" he forgot his arm was shot.

"illness?" guan Lin asked worriedly.

"I'm not a whiny woman, just a little sting. Let's go." Yu Jie got off her little bed, she wanted to put back on her outer clothes but it was exposed to blood.

"Wear my coat, this..." Guan Lin opened his black coat wrapping around Yu Jie's body. "Do I need to carry? Eittt. That's just kidding!"

Yu Jie glared at him, Guan Lin of course understood Yu Jie was not a spoiled woman. For Yu Jie the gunshot wound was just like an ant bite and there was no way Yu Jie wanted to look weak by being carried.

Night Club...

Guan Lin's long-awaited romantic dinner finally takes place, he prepares dinner in the uppermost room of his nightclub. The rooftop is bewitched in such a way with beautiful lights hanging at every fluorescent corner making the romantic atmosphere also full of warmth. Yu Jie was very impressed because it was the first time he had been treated like that.

"You likey? Look at the view, the city lights from the buildings and the car lights down there are so beautiful, right? This rooftop is my favorite place.I'm now with my favorite woman in my favorite place, you know.it looks like my heart is going to explode with happiness."

Yu Jie smiled at the enthusiasm and happiness that Guan Lin openly showed him, without making up. "I wonder about you, do you know that you are famous among the college? Women always come to your nightclub on purpose just to look at you, steal a look from afar. However, men say you are a cold man and dislike women. Is it because those guys are jealous of you because the girls like you, so they're spreading obscure rumors about you."

"Perhaps, but there's a point that the rumor says. Before I met you, I was a woman hater. I.. emmm," Guan Lin still hesitates to tell about his childhood seeing his mother with another man, even though it was his father's fault but seeing his mother make out with a man he didn't know made him dislike women. "Next time I'll tell you about my story, now let's eat. You're starving." Guan Lin picked up a medium well steak, a beef that was cooked to almost maturity. The outside is brownish almost charred, while the inside has started to pale.

Guan Lin took a small piece of the steak that had already been cut, he fed Yu Jie. "Open your mouth, let me serve you tonight, Miss Zhu..."

"Haha, I feel like a spoiled woman. But I won't refuse if this makes you happy," then Yu Jie opened her mouth and directly chewed on the steak that was already lodged in her mouth. "Uuhh, this is delicious." praise Yu Jie still while continuing to chew.

"Coupled with white wine sauvignon blanc, it will be even more amazing. Tryin..." Guan Lin thrust a wine glass at Yu Jie.

Yu Jie received the glass containing the white wine, took a sip of it a little and sure enough it was truly an incredible taste. "Guan! It's very... Whoa!" Yu Jie couldn't even describe the taste.

"I know you'll like it, let's eat again."

"I'll eat by myself, you'll eat." Reject Yu Jie when Guan Lin wanted to bribe him, but Guan Lin did not get angry then handed the steak plate to Yu Jie. He himself began to eat his own food.

Romantic night for the first time for both, the same - the same as his first lover. Yu Jie who had never done it with Ang Cheng in his current life or previous life, was Guan Lin who had never had a lover.

"You can sleep here if you're tired of coming home, my room is very well-equipped. I'll buy some clothes for you to wear tomorrow, anyway if you go home with your arms bandaged... Your father will be worried." Persuade Guan Lin.

"There's no other meaning to this word of yours, is there?" Yu Jie squinted his eyes, Guan Lin was too excited for a relationship that was new to them.

"Ekhm, of course. What's going to happen? I'm a good man, I'm not going to force anything my woman doesn't want. Unless.you ask for it, I'll act first." Else in the other mouth in the heart, he hoped their relationship could be with a quick groove. Guan Lin did not want to waste every second of precious time for him.

"I slept in your room, but you slept in another room. Don't fuck around, Guan." Yu Jie shone a sharp look at the man who was now her lover.

"Why should I look at me like that, I said I'd be a good guy. Let's finish our dinner and then you can rest again."

The phone on the table belonged to Yu Jie shook, a call from Jiao Long. "Yes, how? You can pocket the identity of the shooter?"

"They're very neat, a car without license plates. The faces are covered in cloth masks, but they leave a trail of bullets grazing you. The bullet identification results will come out tomorrow, we'll find out who the owner of the bullet is. The eastern guild very easily found its owner of a caliber stating the size of the bullet and the size of the barrel on the rifle, it would be visible from the diameter or the center line of the bullet, or from the diameter of the contents of the barrel passage. Miss Zhu, we'll soon find out who's behind the shooting."

"Okay, I trust you. Jiao Long, thank you. Then tomorrow comes as usual to the lab, I want you to escort the vaccines and antivirals that will be sent to the hospital."

"Good, Miss. I won't bother you and Young Master Guan anymore, enjoy your time."

Tutttt....

"Where does he know we're together?" Yu Jie glanced at Guan Lin, his lover just shrugged.

"Jiao Long is like my father's right-hand man, he will always know of anything in our family. Maybe he has a lot of spies, thankfully he's good." Guan Lin was also astonished because Jiao Long always knew any news.

"I'm done, let's get down." Invite Yu Jie, the wind is too strong up there.

"You must be cold, my coat can't warm you. I'll warm your body in a moment" Guan's ambiguous words made the newly standing Yu Jie sit back down.

"I told you not to mess around, Guan." Yu Jie pouted.

"You're thinking too much, miss. I mean there was a warm room in my room," Guan Lin held back his laughter as it turned out that Yu Jie was indeed very naive to be so easily colonized.

"Gee!" annoyed and ashamed of being colonized, Yu Jie got up from his seat and went outside the rooftop without waiting for Guan Lin.

"Haha... Jie! I'm just kidding! Wait for me!" guan Lin's laughter broke out, as it turned out that romance could be as fun as that.

A few days later Yu Jie and Guan Lin's relationship was still running in place, hugging each other and just tasting her partner's lips had not exceeded the limit. The matter of the shooting, Yu Jie had already pocketed the identity of his mastermind. Guan Lin who knew of her was furious and wanted to avenge that person.

"I said no, if he was going to kill me, it was certain that his man would shoot me in the head instead of grazing my arm. Even my wounds only took three days and were dry. Don't waste your time on a jerk like Dun Ming, he's angry that I fired him. If it's time I alone will take the life of Dun Ming and the entire family!" Yu Jie still did not want Guan Lin to get involved, he knew Guan Lin had a strong background but he could still handle it himself.

"Ah, I was called to come by my mother. I told you about Mama Ang Cheng, right. Mama called while crying, I don't know what happened so I have to come to Lim's family. Today go take care of your business, don't keep sticking to me. Mr. Guan.." said Yu Jie with a smile, actually he did not deny it is very pleasant to have a lover who can appreciate also be so protective in guarding him. He also never needs to be strong when he needs a backrest or pretend to be okay when all the bad things come. Now, there is someone who takes care of him even though he still maintains his independence.

"I'd like to come along, introduce me to your ex-husband's family." Suddenly that thought popped into Guan Lin's head, he really wanted to know anything about Yu Jie and didn't want to miss it.

"You sure?" Yu Jie there's no problem.

"Of course, you told me about those who loved you more than Ang Cheng the traitor. I'm really curious what kind of family they are."

"Okay, wait 40 minutes. I have to check one more document, if you want coffee, go to the pantry and make it yourself." After saying that, Yu Jie again struggled in the work that had stopped due to Guan Lin's arrival to his room in the Company.

"Do you want me to make you some coffee?"

"If you're ready, you can." Yu Jie replied without looking over.

"Jie Jie's..."

"Hm."

"Gaze at me for a moment before I come out," Guan Lin felt ignored.

Men thirst for attention! Haha! Yu Jie laughed at Guan inwardly, completely like a child when being together. But not only her lover, sometimes she is too.

Yu Jie lifted his head, "Yes, Guan. Go," he gave the best smile.

Finally Guan Lin smiled, turned around and went towards the pantry with a big smile. Seeing Guan Lin's behavior, Yu Jie shook his head. "But this is so much fun, haha."

As Yu Jie said forty minutes later, the two of them walked out of the Company towards the Lim residence. After Yu Jie divorced let alone being preoccupied with his busy schedules, Yu Jie had not had time to come to visit Lim's residence.

When he arrived at Lim's residence, the door was wide open. The servants wear masks, just in case of something. He injected all of them with the vaccine.

"Yu Jie! You've finally come." Madam Lim pulled Yu Jie's hand, "Please Ang Cheng! It's been three days that she's come here because she's sick, at her home Li Mei won't even take care of it."

"Ang Cheng is sick?"

"Yes, it looks like it's got a virus. Didn't you give Ang Cheng a shot of the vaccine?"

Yu Jie shook his head and Madam Lim only had a resigned face. "It's okay, Mama understands. Now please give him an injection, Mama has actually bought his medicine but Ang Cheng throws his bottle to shreds. He refused treatment and always wanted to see you. He said he'd die if you didn't come."

"So that's what Mama meant to call me here?" Yu Jie didn't care if Ang Cheng wanted to die, it had nothing to do with him anymore.

"Yu Jie, Mama please. Ang Cheng's efforts begin to crumble one by one, Mama's letting you take revenge. But, Ang Cheng is my son too. If it's a matter of life, which mother can let it. Mama please, yeah..."

"Let Yu Jie make her own decision! I said don't force him, if that useless grandson wants to die!" Grandpa Lim showed up.

"Grandfather, greetings."

"Hm. You go. Don't take care of Ang Cheng, he deserves it. This is karma for him because it hurt you, you have the right to refuse. You're divorced and you're not related." Grandpa Lim.

"But Dad..." Madam Lim began to sob, she could not bear to see Ang Cheng's state that was getting thinner and paler.

Seeing Madam Lim crying, Yu Jie's heart was heartless. "Guan, can I see Ang Cheng?"

Guan Lin nodded, he was happy that Yu Jie appreciated him by first asking permission from him. "Watch Ang Cheng a patient, heal him."

"Thank you." Yu Jie so did not have time to introduce Guan to the Lim family because Lady Lim pulled her hand towards Ang Cheng's room which was lying sick.
