Chapter 445: Teacher, you must be lonely, huh?

Several dozen bodyguards instantly swarmed over!

Someone pulled out a machete from his waist, someone gripped a baton……

Someone also switched on an electric baton; the cold gleam of the metal equipment flashed on the evening street.

Lin Yuan looked at the scene before him, and his whole person went dumb……

He didn't expect You Nianchu's bodyguards to actually bring such heavy gear……

This is hardly a 'practical class'; it's clearly meant to get real.

Before the bodyguards could lunge, Lin Yuan took a deep breath and lightly stepped back!

He first dodged the incoming machete that swung first.

Lin Yuan reached out and grabbed the wrist of the machete-wielding bodyguard, then, following the opponent's force, gave a light twist!

Only a light 'click' sound was heard!

That bodyguard's arm instantly went limp!

The machete clanged to the ground.

The bodyguard beside him, holding an electric baton, took the chance to rush over……

Lin Yuan sidestepped to avoid the electric baton's buzzing sound!

He backhandedly grabbed the opponent's arm, and his fingertips pressed quickly at the shoulder-neck junction!

Another light sound followed!

That bodyguard's shoulder lost strength, and the electric baton also slipped to the ground.

Lin Yuan's figure weaved through the crowd……

Every time he touched a bodyguard, with just one or two moves, the person's arm or leg would lose support…… one after another they cried out and collapsed to the ground.

In just a few minutes, the originally tightly packed bodyguards collapsed in a swath!

The ground was littered with fallen equipment……

Some still clutched their limbs, moaning nonstop.

You Nianchu stood by the Audi car, not stepping forward to stop him.

She merely widened her beautiful eyes, tightly fixed on Lin Yuan's movements, even her blinks unusually slow.

Lin Yuan's every detail of wrist-grabbing, arm-twisting, and acupressure……

She etched them into her mind, repeatedly recalling to reproduce those bone-dislocation techniques.

A few minutes later, Lin Yuan stood amid the groaning bodyguards strewn across the ground.

A group of bodyguards, all were laid down.

You Nianchu's several dozen henchmen had all been thrown to the ground by him, not a single one able to stand.

Lin Yuan brushed off the dust on his hands, then turned his head toward You Nianchu by the Audi……

Lin Yuan's tone carried a hint of resentment.

"You little brat! Have you had enough?"

You Nianchu, however, shook the phone in her hand, curled the corner of her mouth into a stubborn smile: "Not yet enough."

She said and pressed the call button, urgently speaking into the phone: "Send another 50 people over to Laxi Street outside Zhijiang University's campus gate—I've been ambushed, the sooner the better!"

Lin Yuan, seeing this, quickly stepped forward, snatched the phone from her hand, and hung up!

Lin Yuan furrowed his brows even tighter: "Are you done or not?"

You Nianchu didn't respond……

She suddenly raised her hand and reached toward Lin Yuan's arm!

Her fingers precisely latched onto his elbow joint, actually intending to use the Bone-Dislocation Technique to dislocate his arm!

Lin Yuan's pupils contracted slightly, his heart full of surprise……

This little brat, when did she learn the Bone-Dislocation Technique?

Before You Nianchu's fingers could reach the acupressure point……

Lin Yuan reacted extremely quickly!

He flipped his wrist and grabbed her wrist, then pressed down following the momentum!

Lin Yuan pressed her whole body down so she knelt on one knee on the ground, firmly restraining her.

You Nianchu was pressed to the ground, yet she didn't struggle; instead she murmured softly.

"So this is how to break it?"

As soon as her words fell, she suddenly adjusted her posture, pushing her fingers backward along the direction of Lin Yuan's wrist force!

She actually imitated Lin Yuan's earlier move, precisely finding the flaw in his grappling!

You Nianchu broke free of the restraint in an instant.

Lin Yuan watched You Nianchu retract her hand, his pupils dilating further, his heart filled with shock……

This little brat's learning speed is also too fast, right?

I clearly only demonstrated the Bone-Dislocation Technique once while dealing with the bodyguards……

She actually could precisely remember the technique, even instantly learning how to break the grappling?

Before Lin Yuan could suppress his shock, You Nianchu had already lunged again.

Her fingers still pointed straight at his elbow joint, obviously still not giving up on dislocating his arm.

Lin Yuan instinctively sidestepped to avoid, and the two arms instantly locked together.

The two exerted force back and forth, the air filled with a tense feeling.

Just a few seconds……

Lin Yuan then seized the flaw in her movement, twisted his wrist hard, and once again pressed her to the ground, his palm firmly gripping her shoulder.

You Nianchu was pressed onto the icy cold street ground, her limbs all restrained, unable to move at all.

Her cheek pressed against the ground, hair disheveled across her forehead, yet her breath remained stubbornly rapid.

Suddenly, her gaze turned cold, and the hand not restrained quietly moved toward her waist.

She quietly pulled a small folding knife from the interlayer of her belt, and with a "swish" unfolded the silver blade.

Before Lin Yuan could notice, she flipped her wrist and the blade stabbed toward his shin!

This little girl, her movements were both swift and ruthless, showing no mercy at all.

Lin Yuan only felt a chill pass along his leg…

He instinctively shrank to the side, the blade grazing his pant leg and leaving a faint white mark on the ground.

He almost got cut!

Lin Yuan looked at the knife fallen on the ground, then touched his arm that had just been swept by the blade's wind.

What followed for Lin Yuan was… an uncontrollable anger.

He had thought You Nianchu was just throwing a tantrum, but he never expected her to actually draw a real knife, showing no mercy whatsoever.

"You're utterly outrageous!" Lin Yuan shouted angrily!

He looked around and saw the discarded hemp rope beside the roadside shop.

He bent down and picked it up directly…

Lin Yuan gave You Nianchu no chance to struggle, and in a few motions bound her wrists behind her back!

Lin Yuan then wrapped several loops around her waist, ensuring she could no longer reach for a weapon.

You Nianchu was still struggling, shouting: "Bastard! Let me go! I'm your student!"

"Student? Which student would dare to stab their own teacher with a knife?!" Lin Yuan shouted angrily!

"You, if you don't let me go, I'll call for help!" You Nianchu shouted angrily.

"Help… save me!" You Nianchu was about to shout loudly, but Lin Yuan hurriedly covered her mouth!

Fortunately, there weren't many people on the street at that time.

This was a remote corner off campus, with hardly anyone appearing.

Lin Yuan was thoroughly annoyed by her stubbornness, and he shoved her onto the roadside bench in one motion!

Lin Yuan raised his hand and struck her buttocks hard.

"Smack!" a crisp sound!

You Nianchu's body jerked violently, her shouting stopped instantly, and a flicker of surprise crossed her eyes…

She never expected Lin Yuan to actually strike her.

"Do you still dare to pull out a knife?" Lin Yuan's voice burned with anger!

Seeing her silent, Lin Yuan struck her several times in succession!

Each strike carried force, but he didn't really hit hard; he mainly wanted her to recognize her mistake.

But Lin Yuan himself was somewhat surprised, the feel of You Nianchu's… really soft.

Very bouncy.

Each strike produced an elastic rebound.

Just like striking a rubber ball.

The more he struck, the better the feel.

At first You Nianchu gritted her teeth and endured, pressing her lips shut and refusing to make a sound!

But as the strikes continued…

The pain became increasingly obvious, her shoulders began to tremble slightly, and tears gradually welled up in her eyes!

After all, this is a real spanking on the buttocks!

Lin Yuan's strikes were still quite harsh!

This bastard, his strikes were truly merciless, not an ounce of pity for the fairer sex!

With another strike falling, You Nianchu finally couldn't hold back, crying out: "Stop… I was wrong…"

Lin Yuan's hand paused, looking at the tears rolling from her eye corners and her slightly reddened eye sockets, his anger subsided a little.

Yet he didn't stop immediately, striking while asking, his tone softened: "Do you know where you went wrong?"

"I shouldn't… shouldn't have drawn the knife…" You Nianchu's voice choked with sobs, tears streaming more and more, dripping onto the bench along her cheeks, "I just… just wanted you to teach me…"

As she spoke, her crying grew louder, shifting from suppressed sobs to loud wailing.

The little girl's shoulders shuddered, her earlier stubbornness and hostility vanished, leaving only the resentment of being struck into tears.

Seeing her cry sadly, Lin Yuan finally withdrew his hand.

Looking at her bound state, then at her bloodshot eyes, a complex feeling also arose in his heart…

This girl was genuinely frightened, and genuinely wronged.

You Nianchu still lay prone on the bench, sniffling, her tears soaking a small patch of her skirt…

As she cried, her stomach suddenly let out a "gurgle."

Her crying paused, she sniffled, and looked at Lin Yuan with a heavy nasal tone.

Her voice softened: "I'm hungry, Lin Laoshi…"

Lin Yuan was doused by that pitiful "Lin Laoshi," leaving him with nothing but helplessness.

He sighed, bent down to untie the hemp rope binding You Nianchu, and said in an unsympathetic tone: "Had I known you were hungry, you shouldn't have caused trouble earlier."

"Alright, you may go." Lin Yuan said, and was about to leave.

You Nianchu rubbed her wrists, red from being bound, and tried to stand up…

But as soon as she exerted force, her buttocks sent a wave of pain.

She couldn't help frowning and hissed: "I... I can't drive anymore, my butt hurts."

Lin Yuan glanced at the Audi RS7 not far away, then looked at his own bicycle.

He could only walk over, hoist his bicycle onto his shoulder, and stuff it into the Audi's trunk……

Fortunately the trunk was big enough; it barely fit.

"Get in, I'll drive." Lin Yuan opened the car door, glanced back at You Nianchu still standing where she was.

You Nianchu hurriedly sat in the passenger seat.

As Lin Yuan started the car, he casually asked: "What about your bodyguards? Just leave them there?"

You Nianchu leaned against the seat back, idly rubbing her stomach: "They'll go back on their own; someone will come to handle them."

"By the way, Teacher, can you treat me to a meal?" You Nianchu blinked her big, watery eyes at Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan was helpless, nodded: "Alright then!"

Who let him spank that girl's butt so many times just now?

He made that girl cry from the beating.

Just consider it compensation for her.

The car hadn't gone far when You Nianchu's eyes suddenly lit up, and she tugged Lin Yuan's arm.

"Teacher, let's go to Xin Rong Ji! I loved their drunken crab last time!"

Lin Yuan tightened his grip on the steering wheel, shot her a glance: "What Xin Rong Ji? Do you know how expensive that place is? I have no money to treat!"

You Nianchu pursed her lips, took a step back, softened her tone: "How about... Haidilao then?"

Lin Yuan gave her another glare, annoyed: "No money! Haidilao is expensive too!"

You Nianchu fell silent, picking at her fingers in resentment.

Lin Yuan looked at her like that, fell silent for a few seconds, then said: "Stop being picky, come to my place for a meal—I'll cook for you."

You Nianchu shot up her head, blinking her still-reddish eyes, eyes wide with surprise: "To your place? Teacher, can your cooking actually be good?"

Lin Yuan stared ahead, corner of his mouth twitching with a hint of self-mockery: "It'll do—just enough to keep you from starving."

You Nianchu instantly forgot the earlier pain, her eyes sparkling, she nodded eagerly like a chick pecking at grain: "Yes, yes! Let's hurry!"

……

Ten minutes later, Lin Yuan parked the Audi beneath Shidai Gongyu Lou.

He carried the vegetables and eggs he'd bought on the way, led You Nianchu up to the third floor, and pushed open the door……

You Nianchu took off her shoes, stepped onto the wooden floor, and sat down beside the sofa.

At Lin Yuan's place, she was still quite familiar—having been locked in overnight last time, she knew it inside out.

You Nianchu propped herself on the sofa cushion, looked around, and suddenly asked: "Teacher, your place has no feminine touch at all—do you have no women living here?"

Lin Yuan didn't respond, just carried the vegetables straight into the kitchen, opened the fridge, and put them inside.

You Nianchu, seeing no response, leaned in a bit more, her voice tinged with curiosity, and asked: "Then, Teacher, do you have no girlfriend?"

Lin Yuan still didn't speak, took an apron from the cabinet, tied it on, turned, and walked to the sink to start washing the vegetables.

The water flowed "hualala" over the leaves, making the living room even quieter.

You Nianchu sat motionless on the sofa, but her gaze was glued to the figure at the kitchen doorway……

Watching Lin Yuan skillfully dice the tomatoes into small pieces, the knife hitting the board with a steady "duk-duk" sound;

Watching him pour oil into the pan, after the oil heated he added the eggs, quickly stir-frying with chopsticks, and the golden egg chunks were soon scooped out.

This scene was completely different from his earlier street brawl and stern reprimand; it had a touch of everyday warmth, actually making him seem approachable.

She stared for a while, the resentment from being hit earlier gradually faded, her gaze softened, and she quietly rose and walked to the kitchen doorway.

After hesitating for two seconds, You Nianchu gently moved behind Lin Yuan, reached out her arms…… and suddenly wrapped them around his waist.

"Teacher," You Nianchu's voice much softer than before, with a hint of barely perceptible softness, "you live alone, you must be lonely, right?"
