Jiang Yuxi felt the Leng Yi emanating from her best friend beside her.
I couldn't help but chuckle to myself.
It seems this aloof female CEO has taken her little bodyguard seriously!
He was getting familiar with the Heavenly Dao that had appeared in his Personal Small World.
He asked calmly, " Ling Yi, why did you go out so early in the morning?"
"And where are you right now? Who is that girl next to you? You've just exposed our secret like this?"
Ling Yi waved his hand and said, "Oh, this is Fang Xintong, one of us."
"Right now, we're at Heavenly Prosperity Company, which is where Old Zheng is."
"One of our own?" Shen Wan'er asked, enunciating each word clearly.
"Yes, we're all colleagues, so aren't we family?"
After a pause, Ling Yi added, " Fang Xintong is the same as you."
Fang Xintong didn't understand and tilted her head to look at Ling Yi.
But Jiang Yuxi and Shen Wan'er instantly understood Ling Yi's meaning.
Fang Xintong, like them, is either a female lead or a female villain.
However, judging from this woman's demeanor and heroic spirit, she is most likely not a villain.
That means she's the female lead, just like Shen Wan'er.
But now, the concepts of female lead and female villain don't count anymore.
If the Protagonist are gone, where does the female lead come from?
"Alright, Heavenly Dao sent it to you guys. I still have some things to take care of here, I'll head back after I'm done."
After saying that, Ling Yi hung up the video call.
Jiang Yuxi put away her phone and glanced at Shen Wan'er beside her.
Shen Wan'er, whose face was already icy cold, became even colder at this moment.
"What's wrong, are you jealous?"
Shen Wan'er rolled her eyes at Jiang Yuxi: "Me, jealous of a bodyguard?"
"You're just jealous," Jiang Yuxi asserted.
" Shen Wan'er, if you really like Ling Yi, you should pursue him wholeheartedly."
"Don't always have that deadpan look on your face; no guy likes that."
"Didn't you notice that Ling Yi called you 'boss' the whole time? That's called maintaining a sense of distance."
Shen Wan'er frowned.
Actually, she had previously told Ling Yi not to call her boss, but to call her by her name.
But Ling Yi never changed.
Even without Jiang Yuxi saying it, she knew that there was a strong sense of distance between Ling Yi and her.
Shen Wan'er didn't care before.
She knew very well that Ling Yi's system was related to her.
Although she didn't know what their relationship was, through several tests, Shen Wan'er understood one thing.
Ling Yi must stay by her side and act as her bodyguard for Ling Yi's system to function properly.
Now it seems that just having the identity of a bodyguard is enough; there's no need to stay by her side all the time.
"You don't actually think I'd fall for a bodyguard, do you?" Shen Wan'er retorted stubbornly.
"Hehe!"
" Shen Wan'er, you're stubborn and you'll suffer the consequences; I don't need to teach you that."
"Also, if you fall for Ling Yi, you need to be mentally prepared."
"I told you, I don't like Ling Yi."
But Jiang Yuxi completely ignored Shen Wan'er's words.
Instead, he said to himself, " Ling Yi is most likely the true Protagonist of this novel's world."
Shen Wan'er nodded.
Shen Wan'er had this suspicion from the very beginning.
During this period, Ling Yi's Ling Yi have essentially solidified his status as the Protagonist.
As for Ye Feng?
In their eyes, he was nothing more than a fake Protagonist.
Perhaps, in the novel "The Immortal Emperor Returns," he is indeed a Protagonist.
In Ling Yi's script, Ye Feng is nothing more than a minor character.
"And a Protagonist like him is never short of beautiful women around him; after that, there are quite a few."
"And you know Ling Yi's personality; he's not exactly a respectable person."
"If you can accept it, hold on tight; if you can't accept it, then give up sooner rather than later."
Shen Wan'er sneered, "Don't worry, once he opens it, he won't be able to open it even a little bit."
Jiang Yuxi was speechless. "No, where do you get your confidence from?"
Jiang Yuxi was unaware that Ling Yi's system was bound to Shen Wan'er.
And this is Shen Wan'er's greatest source of confidence.
Then, Jiang Yuxi saw that Shen Wan'er had sent a message to Ling Yi.
"New bodyguard rule: No dating without the boss's permission. Anyone caught dating will be automatically dismissed."
" Shen Wan'er, are you stupid? Aren't you afraid Ling Yi will run away?"
But then, Jiang Yuxi realized what was happening.
"Hmm, that's not right!"
With Shen Wan'er's intelligence, there's no way she would do something so stupid.
Does that mean Ling Yi has a reason to stay by Shen Wan'er's side and act as her bodyguard?
Then, Shen Wan'er realized the key: the system.
"Is that why you're so fearless?"
"Hmm!" Jiang Yuxi could guess, and Shen Wan'er was not surprised at all.
"Have you ever thought about the day when Ling Yi no longer needs the system, which is also the day he leaves you?"
Shen Wan'er fell silent upon hearing Jiang Yuxi's words.
Will that day ever come?
Will Ling Yi really leave me?
The answer is yes!
Unless, of course, Ling Yi Ling Yi dealt with before he needs the system.
"Don't worry, Ling Yi won't leave."
"I hope this is confidence, not arrogance," Jiang Yuxi shrugged.
Meanwhile, Ling Yi was indeed busy.
Heavenly Prosperity Company, to be precise, is Heavenly Prosperity Company's underground base.
Heavenly Prosperity Company is just an ordinary small company.
It's only about twenty square meters in size.
It's all just for show.
The underground of Heavenly Prosperity Company is an old Earthly Dao that was dug decades ago during the war.
After being modified by Zheng Weiguo, it has now become LX's underground base.
"You say I have the Nine Yang Divine Body? How could a woman like me have the Nine Yang Divine Body?" Fang Xintong asked, her face full of worry.
I worry about whether I'll grow a beard, or whether I'll have some strange things growing out of me.
The Nine Yang Divine Body sounds very masculine.
But she's a woman, is this right?
Ling Yi had no idea that Fang Xintong was thinking about inappropriate things at that moment.
Instead, he explained seriously, "It is indeed a problem. If it cannot be resolved soon, you probably won't live past thirty."
"If the Nine Yang Divine Body awakens prematurely, you may not live past next year."
Zheng Weiguo asked, " Ling Yi, you should have a way, right?"
Of course.
"Currently, I have two options."
Zheng Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief; he knew Ling Yi would have a way.
"Firstly, I can directly Extraction the Nine Yang Divine Body, but your body will suffer some damage."
"As compensation, I will give you a system."
"Secondly, if you enter my Personal Small World, the rules of that Personal Small World will suppress your Nine Yang Divine Body, preventing it from ever being activated."
"However, from now on, you will never be able to leave my Personal Small World."
Fang Xintong replied without hesitation, "I don't want to grow a beard."
"Uh, no, I mean, I choose the first one."
Ling Yi was not surprised at all.
This Nine Yang Divine Body is a disaster for Fang Xintong, but a good thing for Ling Yi.
With the Nine Yang Divine Body, one can become stronger by basking in the sun.
Without any training, Battle Power can be increased rapidly.
Therefore, Ling Yi had long had his eye on this Nine Yang Divine Body.
"Alright, since you've agreed, let's choose a system!"
Fang Xintong was dumbfounded. " Big Shot, can I choose the system myself?"
"Of course, otherwise why do you think Old Zheng would be so polite to me?"
Zheng Weiguo was speechless. " Ling Yi, can we not be so direct?"
"Just telling the truth!"
