Chapter 706 - Maybe It's an Accident
Discover the story in "Invincible Young Master in the City" Chapter 706: On the second day at nine in the morning, Ye Fan boarded the flight back... Continue exploring!
On the second day at nine in the morning, Ye Fan boarded the flight back to Hua Hai City to return to work in Mingde County.
He had already exceeded the leave permitted by Zhao Lina.
As for Lu Xiaoman and her elderly parents, they stayed at the five-star hotel for another day or two to recuperate.
Within less than a week, Lu Xiaoman had become noticeably thinner.
Furthermore, the elderly couple, having rushed the journey in desperate haste, looked haggard.
They all needed a good one or two days of quiet recuperation.
Ye Fan had traveled to Chongqing to rescue Lu Xiaoman.
Although his actions had soured relations with the Mo family, they had gone smoothly overall.
Besides, his martial arts competition with the younger members of the Mo family had catapulted his fame across the martial arts world.
Although the last match with Mo Xuanyu had ended in a draw, everyone present knew in their hearts that Ye Fan had still won.
For the next month, the topic of Ye Fan was on the lips of all the martial arts experts during meals and tea breaks, marveling at the rise of another dazzling martial arts prodigy.
However, Ye Fan did not care about his fame in the martial arts world, and he even wished to avoid it.
As a direct descendant of the Ye family, gaining fame in the martial arts world wasnât necessarily a good thing.
Fortunately, there wasnât much connection between the martial arts world and the military-political circles.
At around two in the afternoon, Ye Fan drove back to Mingde County and took out his phone to call Zhao Lina.
âLina, Iâm back,â Ye Fan said on the phone, âSorry, Iâm half a day late.â
Although he hadnât returned on time, Zhao Lina hadnât called to hurry him.
âHmph!â Zhao Lina snorted coldly and said coldly, âFirst, show your face at the police station, then come to my office.â
âHehe, alright,â Ye Fan replied with a forced laugh.
After ending the call, Ye Fan drove into the police station and, as per Zhao Linaâs wishes, made a half-round tour of the station before knocking and entering Zhao Linaâs office.
âHehe, Lina, thank you,â Ye Fan said with a smile as he approached her desk.
Zhao Lina sat in her office chair without any intention of standing up, glanced coldly at Ye Fan, and said displeasedly, âDirector Ye, let me emphasize once again, please call me Director Zhao.
You do not have the right to call me âLina!'â
Ye Fan gave a helpless, wry smile.
Pausing for a moment, Zhao Lina continued, âListen carefully to what âworkâ youâve done these past two and a half days.â
Ye Fan nodded.
He hadnât taken official leave; he had slipped away quietly, and he had to cover it up.
Of course, this wasnât a difficult task.
Being the second in command, along with having Zhao Lina, the top leader, covering for him, who would dare to easily suspect him of leaving his post for two and a half days?
A few minutes later, Ye Fan was chased out of Zhao Linaâs office.
After leaving Zhao Linaâs office, Ye Fan threw himself earnestly into his work.
With the New Year approaching, the population in Mingde County was increasing.
Many people who worked away from home were returning to prepare for the New Year, and security work was more critical than ever, requiring all grassroots police to work overtime.
As a leader, Ye Fan, of course, had to lead by example, working night shifts nearly every day.
Fortunately, with his Qi-Blood strong as a dragon and tiger, even if he worked until one or two in the morning every day, he remained energetic, not feeling tired at all.
Three days later, Ye Fan received a phone call from Cui Wenwen, who with a coquettish tone mixed with gentle whispering, he couldnât refuse her invitation to dine at her house that evening.
It was already the twenty-eighth of the lunar month, and in two days, it would be New Yearâs Eve.
In Mingde County, apart from work relations, the only private contacts he had were with Cui Wenwen, her mother, and Su Mengchen.
Since Cui Wenwen and her mother had warmly invited him, it was proper to pay them a visit.
After finishing work at five in the afternoon, Ye Fan drove to Cui Wenwenâs house.
Arriving at the gate of Cui Wenwenâs residential area, he found that the young girl had been waiting there for quite some time.
Ye Fan stopped the car to let Cui Wenwen get in.
âHehe, cousin!â Cui Wenwen sat in the passenger seat, turned towards Ye Fan, and called out with a sweet smile.
Ye Fan glanced at Cui Wenwenâs little face, which had been made somewhat pale by the cold wind, and smiled, âItâs so cold, why were you waiting for me at the community gate?
Next time, donât be so polite; Iâll drive in myself.â
âHehe, got it,â Cui Wenwen giggled, and at the end, she playfully stuck out her cute little tongue at Ye Fan.
Soon, they arrived at the building where Cui Wenwen lived.
After getting out of the car, Ye Fan took a few gifts from the trunk.
After all, the New Year was approaching, and he couldnât just buy some fruits like usual.
A few minutes later, they finally entered Cui Wenwenâs home.
As soon as Cui Wenwen entered the house, she immediately joyfully cried out, âMom, cousin is here!â
Actually, there was no need for her to shout because Shangguan Wuqiu had already risen from the sofa and was gracefully walking towards them.
As Shangguan Wuqiu approached, Ye Fan couldnât help but take a good look at her.
She was wearing a beautiful light green long dress, the fabric of which seemed a bit thin, like summer wear.
The dress fitted her tall, graceful figure perfectly, showcasing her voluptuous curves exquisitely.
Additionally, the neckline was slightly low, revealing a tantalizing glimpse of creamy white skin.
âYe Fan, youâre here?â Shangguan Wuqiu walked up, calling out to Ye Fan with a warm smile.
Ye Fan withdrew his gaze and nodded with a smile, âShangguan Wuqiu, hello.â
Because Cui Wenwen had just entered the house and immediately said, âMom, cousin is here,â he intentionally addressed Shangguan Wuqiu by her name, indicating that they were peers, which otherwise would feel awkward.
At that moment, Shangguan Wuqiu noticed the large gifts in Ye Fanâs hands and frowned, âWhy did you bring gifts?â
âHehe, itâs almost New Year, just a little something,â Ye Fan said with a light smile, passing the gifts to her.
Shangguan Wuqiu murmured a small complaint, took the gifts, and set them aside.
âYe Fan, take off your coat.
The heater is on in the house, itâs warm,â Shangguan Wuqiu turned back and softly told Ye Fan.
Ye Fan glanced instinctively at the living room, realizing that the air conditioning was indeed set a bit high, no wonder Shangguan Wuqiu was wearing a summer dress.
He responded, began unbuttoning his coat.
As he prepared to take it off after unbuttoning, Shangguan Wuqiu stepped forward a couple of small steps, came up close to Ye Fanâs left side, and reached out with her delicate hand to grasp the left sleeve of Ye Fanâs coat to help him take it off.
âNo need, no need, I can do it myself,â Ye Fan hurriedly declined.
But Shangguan Wuqiuâs movements did not slow down, and as she helped Ye Fan out of his coat, she smiled, âWhy stand on ceremony?â
Ye Fan could only awkwardly smile and let Shangguan Wuqiu help him with his clothes.
After the left sleeve was off, Shangguan Wuqiu held onto the sleeve and moved behind Ye Fan to remove the right sleeve.
Just then, Ye Fan suddenly felt something unusually soft brush against the right side of his back, causing his whole body to stiffen momentarily.
Fortunately, it was only a fleeting moment and the angle was concealed, so Cui Wenwen nearby didnât notice anything.
âIt must have been an accident,â Ye Fan thought to himself, as Shangguan Wuqiu continued uninterrupted and took off his coat.
