Chapter 347: Chapter 347: Chen Shiyu’s Request_1
“Damn it, what the hell is this?”
The middle-aged driver’s face paled; his mind was completely baffled. How could a normal person pinch a knife between two fingers? Could it be that this guy practiced Two Finger Zen?
His desire rapidly faded like the tide, replaced by intense fear. If his strength was not even a match for the opponent’s two fingers, how could he continue fighting?
With that thought, the driver clenched his teeth and bellowed, “Go to hell,” trying to muster his courage before turning tail and fleeing in absolute disarray, his speed suggesting a youthful past in training.
However, Xu Fan would not let him get away so easily.
He glanced at the driver fleeing in panic, smiled coldly, and tossed the knife into the air. When it fell back down, he flicked it with his finger as if he were flicking a small pebble, and the knife swiftly shot through the air.
“Whoosh!”
Two seconds later, the knife flew through the air and struck the driver.
The latter howled in agony on the ground, rolling around as blood seeped through his pants and poured out between his fingers like it cost nothing, staining the sand red.
This... damn it, how am I supposed to live after this.
“Ahh~”
The driver, enduring the pain, knelt down to unbuckle his belt and unzip his pants to take a look inside, and immediately let out a wretched scream.
“You little bastard, I’ll kill you.”
After yelling out all his strength, the bleeding got worse, and the pain knocked him unconscious, leaving his body convulsively twitching.
After flicking the knife away, Xu Fan turned his head, no longer looking at the beast.
The girl watched the scene in a daze, her eyes vacant until Xu Fan came over and grunted, which brought her back to reality. Her pretty, tear-streaked face blushed a deep red, and she continuously expressed her thanks: “Thank you... thank you for saving me.”
“It was nothing,” Xu Fan waved his hand, “The main thing was that that scumbag almost hit my car. Saving you was secondary; teaching him a lesson was my real purpose.”
Hearing this, the girl felt somewhat disappointed and also puzzled, “Don’t you recognize me? I thought it was a hero saving a beauty.”
So, after hesitating for a moment, he replied apologetically, “Sorry, I’ve already been delayed for a while, and I’m afraid of making people worried if I get home too late.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Shiyu guessed that the man was someone who cherished his family life, and he must have someone at home that loved him deeply. She felt an inexplicable surge of envy—what a happy family that must be.
Although she enjoyed the attention of countless admirers, her life was dull and cold; otherwise, she wouldn’t have come to Zhonghai to find her best friend to talk and relieve her boredom.
Seeing her lost in thought for a moment, Xu Fan didn’t wait for a response and turned to leave.
“Wait for me, I’ll get my luggage.”
Chen Shiyu didn’t dare to stay there alone, picked up her dropped shoes, and hurried back to the car to retrieve her suitcase from the trunk, dragging it forcefully as she followed him.
Xu Fan sighed helplessly, turned around, and waited quietly. When she caught up to him, he asked, “What is it this time?”
Chen Shiyu crouched down, her clothes slipping down again, but she knew Xu Fan wouldn’t look, so she didn’t bother adjusting them until after she had put on her shoes. Then, with a bashful grip on her chest, she said, “I... have nowhere to go, can I go home with you?”
“Huh?” Xu Fan was taken aback for a moment, looking into her misty, large eyes, and shook his head, “Aren’t you afraid that I could be a bad person too? You don’t even know my name yet.”
Chen Shiyu cracked a tearful smile, “Can you tell me your name now?”
“Xu, as in double, and Fan, as in a sail. Don’t get it wrong.”
“Got it, I’ve remembered. I believe you’re not a bad person; a bad person wouldn’t reveal his own name.”
“Alright.”
“So, can I go home with you now?” After asking, Chen Shiyu looked at him with a face full of expectation.
Xu Fan couldn’t help but touch his forehead, feeling as if he had been slightly tricked, “Okay then.”
He muttered to himself, “I went out as a security escort, and now I’m bringing a great beauty home. What are they going to think of me?”
Chen Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief, her face breaking into a relieved smile, as if she had stepped out of the nightmare from before.
Xu Fan took the initiative to take her suitcase, walked back to the roadside, placed the suitcase in the trunk, and then opened the rear door for the girl to get in.
The car then revved up and disappeared into the night.
Not long after Xu Fan left, a middle-aged man with a low hat and a somber face stared out the window of the abandoned warehouse at the departing car. He stood stunned for a good while before making an ominous phone call...
