In Qin Nan’s heart, an unrealistic thought suddenly arose. Could it be that after not seeing each other for several years, Xiao Yufan today had completely changed for the better?
“If we want to completely cure Ge Wu’s illness, it will cost about 100,000 to 200,000 yuan…”
Qin Nan asked tentatively. She didn’t really believe Xiao Yufan could come up with such a large sum. Moreover, even if he could, how could she possibly accept it without reason?
“Just consider it an advance on your wages, Sister Nan…” Xiao Yufan said casually. To him, whether it was 100,000 or even millions, it was all the same—he simply didn’t care about such trivial sums of money.
“Wages?” Briefly hesitating, Qin Nan’s mind momentarily short-circuited. She didn’t understand what he meant by wages.
“Oh, I forgot to mention, Sister Nan. I own a company in Linjiang. If you don’t mind, you could help out in the staff cafeteria. With your cooking skills, I’m certain you’d win over many hearts…”
Xiao Yufan spoke ambiguously. He feared that if he revealed everything at once, Qin Nan might not be able to accept it, so he decided to tell her gradually.
That man, Wu, and Qin Nan were again stunned. From Xiao Yufan’s words, it seemed he should be the boss of a company. Yet how surreal did that sound? Could it really be that this man was their long-awaited benefactor?
“There’s 200,000 yuan here. Use it to treat your leg injury. I also hope that Sister Nan can live a happy life. She’s your woman; from the moment she decided to marry you, that will never change…”
Ignoring Qin Nan, Xiao Yufan directly approached her boyfriend. Somehow, as Xiao Yufan walked closer, the latter instinctively took a step back.
Wu Liang suddenly realized that, after being with his woman for nearly two years, he didn’t even understand Qin Nan as much as this man before him. A sudden wave of guilt washed over him, making him feel like he had failed as a man.
“Thank you, but someone like me is already ruined. Even if my leg heals, I can’t give Nan’er a happy life. Use this money for her instead, so she can find a better man…”
“Wu Ge, what are you saying? I can work for Xiao Fan to pay back the money. As long as your leg heals, you can also find a job. Everything will get better!”
Hearing her boyfriend speak, Qin Nan’s bitterness vanished instantly. Tears of emotion welled up in her eyes, and her gaze became even more determined. Her boyfriend’s leg injury was largely her fault, and she had no intention of leaving him…
Nan Jie will also need help in the staff cafeteria. If you’re a real man, take this money. Only when you can accept help and move forward can you overcome your shadows and give Nan Jie a better life!
Xiao Yufan placed the bank card in Wu Liang’s hand. His initial dislike of the man had somewhat lessened. Though he still found him despicable, he could tell that Wu Liang genuinely cared about Qin Nan.
“Just take it. You’ll have a chance to repay Xiao Fan someday. Your leg has been injured for so long already; the longer you wait, the harder it will be to heal!”
Finally regaining her composure, Qin Nan realized she could no longer fathom this man, so she simply stopped thinking about it. Right now, she hoped even more that her man would accept Xiao Yufan’s kindness.
A bitter smile surfaced on his lips. How could he not understand? This man was helping him only because of his woman. Perhaps the only right decision he had ever made was helping Qin Nan back then…
“Hey, the crippled pretty boy dares to show his face today? Who gave you so much courage?”
Just as the atmosphere was getting heavy, a mocking voice suddenly interrupted. Qin Nan’s expression slightly changed, and Wu Liang’s face darkened instantly.
It was this group of hooligans who had caused his leg injury. But they were just ordinary people, unable to do anything to these thugs. Even though they hated them deeply, they didn’t want to provoke any more conflict.
However, enduring injustice didn’t mean these hooligans would stop. The leader of this group had been eyeing Qin Nan from the beginning. After crippling Wu Liang’s leg, he had threatened Qin Nan to become his woman—but had failed.
Needless to say, Qin Nan’s figure was extremely tempting, and her face was undeniably beautiful. There were definitely many people who coveted her beauty. Many who came to eat here were also here for her, but aside from these thugs, others didn’t want to cause trouble.
“An Jiansheng, don’t push too hard. If you keep coming here to stir up trouble, we’ll call the police!”
“Call the police? The police station chief is my uncle. On this turf, I am the law! Go ahead and call the police—let’s see if anyone dares to respond…”
The gang leader, whom Qin Nan called An Jiansheng, looked extremely contemptuous. Dealing with these powerless, ordinary people was as simple as moving a finger for him.
“Get out…”
An Jiansheng arrogantly scanned the crowd. When his gaze landed on the three heavenly beauties beside Xiao Yufan, he was immediately stunned by their beauty. But before he could recover, Xiao Yufan’s icy voice cut through the air.
“What did you say?” It was the first time anyone had scolded him like this. An Jiansheng thought he must have misheard, his eyes flashing with a cold glint as he stared at Xiao Yufan.
“I said, get out. Are you deaf?” Xiao Yufan didn’t even raise a hand—such trash wasn’t even worth his effort!
“Who the hell do you think you are, you bastard, to—uhhh…”
An Jiansheng immediately exploded. He had been bullying people on this turf for days unchallenged. No one had ever dared to tell him to leave. But before he could finish cursing, a sharp pain shot up from his groin…
“I didn’t want to dirty my hands on someone like you, so I used my foot instead. Since you’re so obsessed with women, I wonder how you’ll feel when you can’t touch them anymore…”
Though Xiao Yufan was smiling, his words sent chills down everyone’s spines. Just moments ago, he had been gentle and refined, but now he had turned violent in an instant.
The violence itself wasn’t the worst part—what shocked everyone was that he had struck with deadly intent. It seemed the world had gained another modern-day eunuch. From An Jiansheng writhing on the ground in agony, it was clear that he had been crippled.
The man who had just been swaggering around was now rolling on the floor in pain. Except for the other thugs, everyone else hurriedly moved as far away as possible. Within minutes, the restaurant was completely empty.
“If you don’t want to spend the rest of your life in bed, leave now…”
Xiao Yufan squatted down, looking at the terrified expression on the man’s face. His lips moved slightly, causing the man to feel as if he had been granted salvation. Supported by several others, he scrambled to his feet and fled…
