Chapter 98: Chapter 093 Don’t be afraid, I’ll protect you even as a ghost (Part 1)

"Fourth Brother!" Mi Chenxuan jumped up with alarm, "Are you okay?"

Yi Luowa stared blankly at Tong Airui, who was wincing in pain, "I didn’t use much force... And I didn’t hit your ribs, why are you in so much pain!"

"Old Eight, if I kick the bucket, don’t you dare say it was your Fourth Sister-in-law who hit me. Just tell them my old injury flared up!" Tong Airui leaned back on the sofa, winked at Mi Chenxuan.

Mi Chenxuan instantly understood and his eyes turned red. He choked up and said, "Fourth Brother, don’t scare me!"

Yi Luowa was instantly dumbfounded, "You—do you have other injuries?"

Tong Airui weakly looked at her, "Don’t worry. Even as a ghost, I’ll protect you!"

"Tong Airui! I’m not letting you die, stop scaring me! Chen Xuan, tell Yuan Hang to drive faster. We’re going to the hospital. With Dr. Mai there, Tong Airui will be fine!" Yi Luowa was so anxious she was crying.

Mi Chenxuan glanced at her guiltily, but since Fourth Brother was still keeping up the act, he couldn’t stop himself from playing along. Silly Chen Xuan pretended to call, "Yuan Hang, step on the gas... My Fourth Brother’s old injury flared up, haha..."

Mi Chenxuan could laugh in this moment, which made Yi Luowa suspicious. She glanced at him, noticing his shoulders were shaking constantly. She furrowed her brow slightly, then half-knelt on the sofa and gently lifted Tong Airui’s face in her hands, speaking softly, "Tong Lao Si, you definitely won’t die! Even if you die, I won’t let you be lonely. I’ll accompany you to hell!"

"Why to hell and not heaven?" Tong Airui asked "weakly."

"You’ve fought all over, killed so many people, done so many bad things. If you don’t go to hell, who will?" Yi Luowa pursed her lips tightly and smacked his cheek hard. "Besides, troublemakers live for a thousand years. You’re such a little troublemaker you won’t die anyway!"

"Fourth Sister-in-law, be gentle! My Fourth Brother has injuries!" Mi Chenxuan hurried over and pulled Yi Luowa away.

Yi Luowa pursed her lips, "Don’t call me Fourth Sister-in-law! I thought you were a good person, but turns out you’re in on this deception too. I won’t talk to you ever again!"

"Fourth Sister-in-law... Little girl, I’m forced into this! No, really—my Fourth Brother’s shoulder does have injuries. Back when he fought in wars, some shrapnel wasn’t taken out. Don’t be fooled by his smooth exterior, that’s all from scar removal ointment; underneath it’s still a mess."

"When we get to the hospital, I’ll get his X-ray done. If there’s no shrapnel, watch how I deal with you!" Yi Luowa huffed, glaring at the two of them, "Do you think that because I’ve been acting nice recently, I’m easy to bully? Let me tell you, this sister wasn’t raised to be bullied!"

Mi Chenxuan and Tong Airui exchanged glances and burst out laughing.

Yi Luowa slammed the table hard, "You two still have the audacity to laugh!"

"Honey, my bad, let’s not be angry, alright? But, that punch of yours really hit hard—still hurts now. I wasn’t lying to you. Since my rib got fractured, anytime anyone touches me, it hurts all over. I’ve probably made myself ill. When we get home, I’ll have Old Seven thoroughly examine me." Tong Airui rubbed his shoulder and gestured for Mi Chenxuan to help him take off his shirt.

Yi Luowa glanced at Mi Chenxuan fumbling awkwardly with Tong Airui’s buttons and frowned, then walked over, "Let me do it."

Her willingness to help Tong Airui undress was partly because she thought Silly Chen Xuan was too clumsy, and partly because of what Tong Airui had said earlier. Overall, she still felt a bit guilty toward him.

Mi Chenxuan quickly laughed and stepped aside, "I’m good at undressing girls, but when it comes to men, it’s just awkward no matter how I do it."

"How many girls have you undressed?" Yi Luowa glared at him.

"Ten or eight, perhaps!" Mi Chenxuan raised an eyebrow playfully, "If you don’t believe me, ask my Fourth Brother."

"Not a single good one!" Yi Luowa puffed her cheeks angrily as she took off Tong Airui’s jacket. Though the back brace wasn’t as soaked as it was yesterday, it wasn’t in much better shape either. Yi Luowa carefully popped open the clasp on the brace and began undoing his shirt buttons.

Fourth Master Tong was thoroughly enjoying the moment. Her small gestures made his understanding of her feelings even clearer: her heart did have a place for him!

Mi Chenxuan craned his neck to stare at the two of them, "Fourth Sister-in-law, your technique is pretty smooth! Did you practice on my Fourth Brother?"

"Why don’t you say I practiced on someone else?" Yi Luowa turned and glanced at him.

"Some things aren’t meant to be said casually. I’m afraid if my Fourth Brother knew you practiced on someone else, he’d be sour to death."

"I’m magnanimous. As long as from now on, you only undress me, I won’t care about what happened before," Tong Airui declared, feigning generosity. The reason he could talk so big was that he understood better—this little girl was still immature, like an unripe fruit.

Yi Luowa shot him a glare, "Go to the bathroom!"

"As you command!" Tong Airui grinned, reaching out to take Yi Luowa’s hand as they headed to the bathroom.

Mi Chenxuan rubbed his head and muttered, "Maybe I really should find myself a woman. Otherwise, being force-fed dog food every day—who could stand it?"
