Holographic Bodyguard Log

Chapter 4: Surviving the Great Danger

Zhang Yi entered a strange perceptual world. He could clearly see his own body lying on the ground, eyes closed, yet he also saw He Sen rushing in, and the beautiful female CEO who was panicking and at a loss.

He felt that he must have died and his soul was electrocuted out of his body. Suddenly, a chilling feeling swept over him, and he realized he couldn’t die. If he died, what would happen to his helpless sister, who had just started university?

"Xu, he’s still breathing, still has a pulse, he's alive," He Sen, who had been checking his breath and heartbeat, suddenly stood up and said that Zhang Yi was still alive.

"What’s going on?" Zhang Yi was shocked.

"You hurry, carry him downstairs to the hospital, quickly, what are you waiting for?" The female CEO screamed in a high-pitched voice. She hadn’t cried before, but upon hearing that Zhang Yi was still alive, tears gushed out. Whether it was out of fear or something else, she cried.

"Okay, alright," He Sen nodded, turned around, muttering under his breath, and suddenly picked up Zhang Yi!

Just as He Sen picked up Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi’s consciousness, which had left his body, instantly returned, and he opened his eyes wide!

"Damn!" Seeing Zhang Yi suddenly open his eyes, He Sen was startled and almost dropped him.

At that moment, Zhang Yi’s scalp tingled, and he instinctively closed his eyes again!

"Hoo~" The out-of-body sensation left again, and he saw He Sen’s surprised expression, saw the female CEO rushing towards him with an anxious face, and also saw the secretary sitting at the office door, paralyzed.

He opened his eyes again, closed them again, opened them, and closed them once more!

"Damn!" He realized what was happening.

When his eyes were closed, his consciousness could perceive everything within at least a ten-meter radius. Even though his eyes were closed, all the scenes and situations around him would present themselves in his mind.

"Mutation!" A word appeared in Zhang Yi's mind. He had been mutated by the electric shock.

"You can still curse? Get off me!" He Sen didn’t want to carry him anymore. So when he saw Zhang Yi repeatedly closing and opening his eyes and swearing, he threw Zhang Yi down.

"Ah…" The female CEO screamed when she saw He Sen throw Zhang Yi.

However, Zhang Yi landed smoothly, nothing happened. Aside from his hair being slightly scorched and his face pale, he was still alive.

"How… How are you?" Xu Jiayun asked anxiously.

"Uh, I don’t know." Zhang Yi coughed. He had been electrocuted like this, was this considered a work injury? Was there any bonus? So he said he didn’t know. Of course, he knew deep down that he felt fine, maybe even better than before.

"Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital for a check-up," Xu Jiayun said, as she reached out to grab Zhang Yi's wrist.

"Xu, you’re busy with work. Let me take him," He Sen suddenly inserted himself into the conversation, grabbing Zhang Yi's wrist first.

"It’s fine, no need for the hospital. I’m an electrician. I’ve been electrocuted many times before. But Xu, can I take a few days off?" Zhang Yi shook off He Sen’s hand and suddenly turned around, winking at Xu Jiayun.

When Xu Jiayun saw Zhang Yi wink at her, she instinctively lowered her gaze to check her chest. This bad guy had flirted with her a month ago using the same wink.

"No, you have to go to the hospital. What if you die?" Xu Jiayun’s expression turned stern. She had not cried earlier, but now, seeing Zhang Yi still alive, she felt both relieved and frustrated. How could this security guard have the nerve to flirt with her after nearly dying?

"Zhang Yi, what are you doing? Are you trying to quit?" He Sen, not realizing that Zhang Yi and Xu Jiayun were playfully bantering, continued to intrude. This Zhang Yi was too arrogant, actually talking back to Xu Jiayun?

Unexpectedly, just as He Sen finished speaking, Zhang Yi and Xu Jiayun said simultaneously, "None of your business~"

"Ah…"

"Uh…" Xu Jiayun suddenly realized that she might have lost her composure, as her usual cold demeanor was nowhere to be found.

"He Sen, you can leave," Xu Jiayun said coldly, her voice becoming authoritative.

"He, Xu, what about him…?" He Sen was confused, not understanding why Xu Jiayun was telling him to leave.

"Didn’t you hear me?" Xu Jiayun raised an eyebrow.

"Yes," He Sen shuddered. He knew this "Ice Queen" wasn’t someone to be trifled with.

"And close the door. No one else is allowed in!" Xu Jiayun added as He Sen was about to leave.

"Yes." He Sen nodded, then helped the secretary who was sitting at the door, and closed the office door.

"Hey, beautiful, how are you? Turns out you’re my boss!" After confirming that no one else was in the room, Zhang Yi chuckled and curiously looked around the office.

"You must go to the hospital for an examination, otherwise, it could cause lasting problems!" Xu Jiayun remained cold, not showing any sign of warmth even though the two shared a small secret.

"Also, the hotpot was 16 yuan, right? I’ll pay you back!" Xu Jiayun said as she walked to the desk to take money from the drawer.

"No, I absolutely don’t want it!" Zhang Yi jumped up. If she paid back the 16 yuan, it would mean she had repaid the debt, and Zhang Yi, being shrewd, knew exactly how to avoid paying back the favor.

"I heard someone used 6 yuan to go out 13 times, but you, that’s 16…" Zhang Yi grinned.

"You shameless!" Hearing Zhang Yi mention the 6 yuan hotpot story, Xu Jiayun almost lost her temper. This guy was such a pervert.

"Hehe, just joking. I don’t want the money. But Xu, can I please take a few days off? Will you approve?" Zhang Yi quickly shifted the topic, realizing that his previous comment was inappropriate.

"Mm, fine," Xu Jiayun agreed. She didn’t continue discussing the money, but she gave a light snort, signaling that she had granted Zhang Yi his request. In fact, she felt that 16 yuan was a bit too little to pay back for Zhang Yi helping her out of a tough situation, and she wasn’t sure how much she should actually give back.

"Then, will I not have my salary deducted?" Zhang Yi asked eagerly.

"Who would dare deduct your salary when I’ve approved your leave?" Xu Jiayun replied. But suddenly, she thought of something and immediately picked up the internal phone and dialed the finance department.

"Li Jie, prepare one thousand yuan. The security guard Zhang… Zhang Yi will come to pick it up shortly." She said this and hung up the phone without waiting for a reply.

"You owe me 16 yuan, why are you giving me a thousand?" Zhang Yi widened his eyes in surprise.

"This is your compensation for the injury. You need to get a full body check-up, and I need the receipt. If you don’t bring it back, I’ll fire you. And… you should buy some nutritional supplements." Xu Jiayun’s face turned slightly red. She wasn’t trying to be overly generous; she just felt that a company employee being electrocuted deserved some compensation.

"This money doesn’t count as the 16 yuan, right?" Zhang Yi asked quietly.

"What are you thinking? This is the company’s compensation. The 16 yuan is our personal matter. And I warn you, if you spread the rumor about me eating hotpot, I’ll fire you. I mean it!" Xu Jiayun warned.

"Hotpot? What hotpot? I don’t eat that stuff," Zhang Yi said, feigning confusion.

Seeing Zhang Yi pretending to be clueless, Xu Jiayun couldn’t help but smile slightly. The guy was smart in his own way.

"Haha, you’re laughing. Let me tell you, behind your back, they all call you the ‘Ice Goddess’ and ‘The Tiger’."

Xu Jiayun rolled her eyes at Zhang Yi. "Do you have anything else? If not, go for the check-up and rest. You’ve got five days off."

Zhang Yi thought for a moment, "Your office power outlets aren’t fixed properly. Tell them to buy a new socket, and I’ll come install it tonight. Also, the other power sources in the company should be checked. Poor quality power switches can easily cause accidents."

"I know. But forget it. I don’t trust your skills. You’re an electrician who got electrocuted by his own work?" Xu Jiayun sneered.

"It wasn’t my fault. I saw you get scared and then jumped behind me, so my hand shook and I got electrocuted."

Xu Jiayun scoffed, "What were you scared of? Am I going to eat you? It’s you who had a guilty conscience."

"Hehe, enough said. I really do feel a bit dizzy. I’ll leave now. Thanks for the 1,000 yuan!"

"You feeling dizzy? Are you okay? I’ll send a car to take you to the hospital. You must get checked!" Hearing Zhang Yi mention dizziness, Xu Jiayun immediately walked out from behind

“No need, really no need. I’ve been shocked before, but I’m immune to other high-voltage electricity, except for women giving me shocks,” Zhang Yi said with a smirk.

“Get lost.” When Xu Jiayun heard Zhang Yi's unrestrained words, she was so furious that she felt like kicking him to death. What kind of person is this? Not afraid of dying from electricity, but still joking about women "shocking" him?

“Well, I’m leaving. Don’t miss me,” Zhang Yi turned around and winked at Xu Jiayun, pointing at her chest.

“You… get lost.”

With a "whoosh" sound, a pile of documents flew towards him, and Zhang Yi immediately ran away like a madman.

As the door closed behind him, Xu Jiayun was left stunned. What just happened? Why did she throw the documents at him? And why didn’t she actually get angry?

Normally, this would be absolutely impossible. If anyone dared to tease her, she would be disgusted just by a glance. But why didn’t she feel repulsed by Zhang Yi?

“Ugh, I’m so angry…” Not understanding what was happening to her, Xu Jiayun didn’t bother to clean up the pile of documents on the floor. Instead, she plopped down in her office chair, her mind filled with memories of the moments she had shared with Zhang Yi at the spicy hotpot shop.

“I never expected it to be such a coincidence,” Xu Jiayun muttered to herself with a smile, then picked up the phone on her desk and dialed the HR department. “Section Chief Lin, please send me the personnel file of Zhang Yi from the Security Department.”
