Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1588 - 1585: Dormitory Rules

Dormitory Rule No.1: In the morning, ladies first use the bathroom.

Lin Tian immediately protested, "That’s not fair. What if I get up earlier than you in the morning?"

"Even if you wake up early, you still have to yield; otherwise how could it be called a rule," Xiao Manxuan snorted, raising her little face.

"This isn’t a rule at all. If you ask me, it sounds more like a tyrant clause," Lin Tian was speechless.

"Hmph, it was your sister who laid these down before leaving. If you don’t follow them, I’ll tell her," the little girl snorted twice, revealing the origin of these dormitory rules.

Judging by the tone of these rules, Lin Tian felt it didn’t seem like Xiao Manxuan came up with them. Sure enough, it was that domineering lady boss.

"Alright, your silence means consent. Now, the second rule..." Xiao Manxuan didn’t give Lin Tian a chance to argue, immediately reading the next rule: "Second rule, when I’m showering, you must stay at least ten meters away from the bathroom!"

"What did you say? Ten meters?" Lin Tian pointed to the living room door, dumbfounded, "The entire length of the living room isn’t even ten meters. At ten meters away, are you trying to make me fall flat outside?"

Xiao Manxuan looked around, a bit embarrassed, "Five meters, five meters away."

"No way, five meters basically means I’m squatting in the corner. I’m not doing that," Lin Tian continued to protest.

"Okay, three meters, three meters away, can’t go any less," the little girl compromised by two more meters after glancing at the corner five meters away.

Lin Tian found this quite amusing. If I really want to see, why would I peek through the door crack? I’d use super vision; even hundreds of meters wouldn’t matter.

"Third rule, without my permission, do not enter my room," Xiao Manxuan continued.

"Don’t worry about that. I won’t go into your room. However, I’m more easy-going than your sister, and you’re always welcome to enter my room," Lin Tian chuckled.

Xiao Manxuan wrinkled her nose adorably, "Hmph, I wouldn’t enter a bad guy’s room. Sister said you’re a big pervert, always bullying girls, so I should watch out."

"Alright, alright, I’m a big pervert. Continue with the next rule." Lin Tian was already used to being slandered by the sisters every day.

"My clothes are drying on the balcony; you can’t use it. Find somewhere else to dry your stuff," Xiao Manxuan read.

Jeez, little girl, are you just scared I’ll mess with your underwear? I’m not into that sort of thing. Lin Tian stared straight at her, making the little girl feel embarrassed.

"What... what do you want?" Xiao Manxuan looked like a startled little bunny.

"Ahem, nothing much, just think it’s really nice, truly nice," Lin Tian suddenly said something that seemed completely unrelated.

Xiao Manxuan pondered for a long time but couldn’t figure out what Lin Tian was thinking, muttering, "Lin Tian, you’re always acting so mysterious; sometimes I really wonder if you have a human brain."

Lin Tian was shocked, secretly wiping cold sweat, this little girl really hit the nail on the head, I’m truly not human. He straightened his expression before saying, "Finish with the rules and get your luggage sorted. If we keep delaying, I can’t guarantee that I’ll maintain such willpower, you know, I can hardly resist beauties."

Hearing him call her a beauty, Xiao Manxuan felt both delighted and annoyed, thinking, this jerk is so direct, why does he keep staring at me?

"You still say you’re not a pervert, hmph, do you always stare at girls like that? Let’s see how I take you down, you big pervert," Xiao Manxuan huffed sweetly, grabbing a pillow from the couch and throwing it at Lin Tian.

Lin Tian laughed as he easily caught the pillow, then tossed it back. The little girl also caught it, just about to throw it back again when Lin Tian suddenly appeared in front of her. Startled, the little girl instinctively stepped back, tripping over the sofa and falling.

Although falling on the floor wasn’t really going to hurt, the little girl was still quite scared. Lin Tian swiftly moved and offered her a hand, preserving her ladylike image. However, seeing Lin Tian’s suave "hero saving beauty" pose, her heart fumbled again unwillingly.

"Sister calls every day to check in; I’ll tell you, don’t think about bullying me," Xiao Manxuan declared boldly, invoking Missy’s name for courage.

"Missy, hehe..." Lin Tian wanted to say that Missy bullies too, but if he did, the little girl might really get mad, so he quickly changed tack, "Er... you haven’t said what the next dormitory rule is?"

"Sixth no, I mean, fifth rule..." Xiao Manxuan, either flustered or interrupted, almost forgot the numbering: "Dormitory Rule No.5, always keep at least one meter away from me."

"One meter away?" Lin Tian glanced at the nearby Xiao Manxuan, and grinned mischievously.

"Ring ring ring..."

The phone rang abruptly. It took Xiao Manxuan a moment to retrieve her phone, seeing it was her sister’s number, she sighed in relief, simultaneously glancing a warning at Lin Tian, "Stay one meter away, sister is calling to check!"

Lin Tian sighed internally, Missy truly isn’t at ease leaving me alone—do I have "big bad guy" inscribed on my face or something? But thinking is one thing, he could only regretfully sit back on the couch to avoid provoking the domineering boss’s wrath. Xiao Manxuan took a few deep breaths for composure before answering the call.

"Xuanxuan, what are you doing? Why did it take you so long to answer the phone?" The phone transmitted the suspicious voice of Missy.

Xiao Manxuan glanced at Lin Tian, anxiously replied, "I... we’re just organizing luggage; anything you need, sister?"

"Hmm, I forgot to tell you, I had all the furniture in your apartment dorm replaced. Also, there are three days’ worth of groceries in the fridge, cook for yourselves if you don’t want to eat out."

"Plus, keep an eye on Lin Tian. When he’s stubborn, he’s as unruly as a bull, charging around. Don’t... let him get hurt."

Missy lowered her voice for the last sentence, but Lin Tian still heard it, breaking into a smile—behind Missy’s cold exterior lurked a warm heart.

After a few more instructions, the sisters ended the call, Xiao Manxuan’s face blushing a bit from lying to her sister.

To avoid letting Lin Tian see her embarrassment, she tossed the white paper onto the couch, somewhat panickedly turning away, "Check the dormitory rules yourself. I’m going to pack." With that, she gathered her luggage and dashed into the bedroom.

Lin Tian shook his head with a smile, picking up the white paper and luggage, also heading back to his bedroom, but as he passed the door, he carefully posted the white paper on it.

This time he brought all his belongings, animal hides, books, and other important things. As he contemplated where to stash his treasures, Xiao Manxuan’s scream suddenly erupted from outside. Instantly, a figure dashed in, grasping his arm tightly.

Looking at Xiao Manxuan before him, Lin Tian pretended to be serious, "Second Miss, didn’t you say you wouldn’t enter a pervert’s room? So now am I the one being improper, or are you being improper?"
