Chapter 655: Chapter 655

Yang Fan and Zhang Yulan left Caoji Village after having lunch.

During that time, Xiang Xue Ting called to specifically inform Yang Fan about the reward money situation, as the case involving the masked individuals was not yet fully resolved and Yang Fan might need to wait a few more days before he could receive the money.

Fighting hard to earn that two hundred thousand, Yang Fan naturally cared about it, but he wasn’t in a rush.

He knew that someone would notify him when it was time to collect the money, and it was unlikely that the police station would tamper with this matter.

However, Xiang Xue Ting seemed worried that Yang Fan would become anxious, so she specifically reminded him.

Besides that, Xiang Xue Ting also shared some updates on the progress of the case with Yang Fan.

Chen Zhong, the so-called untouchable clay Bodhisattva, was almost ready to cross the river.

Xiang Xue Ting didn’t elaborate too much, he just told Yang Fan that things were moving in a good direction and asked him to stay safe and relax.

With this signal, Yang Fan felt much steadier.

As long as things were moving in the right direction, that was good.

"Sister Lan, what are your plans moving forward?"

The car slowly drove along, and Yang Fan turned to Zhang Yulan beside him and asked.

Zhang Yulan sat next to him in the passenger seat, her round and plump buttocks tightly pressing against Yang Fan’s thigh, feeling gentle and delicate.

"Of course, to kill him!" Zhang Yulan said with a cold expression, "Originally I still held a sliver of hope to negotiate with Chen Zhong and hadn’t released the most explosive evidence. But now that he is bent on killing both of us, we definitely can’t hold back. I’ll arrange for things to heat up in a bit."

"These days, the internet is much more effective than other methods. As long as Chen Zhong’s name gets big enough this time, he won’t recover."

Yang Fan nodded, then asked, "Sister Lan, just to be safe, let’s not go home for now. We can stay in a hotel for the time being until this matter is completely settled."

Zhang Yulan suddenly looked at Yang Fan with a smile, "Are you going to stay with me?"

"...Yes, I’ll stay." Yang Fan said.

His current situation was actually a bit more troublesome than Zhang Yulan’s.

Zhang Yulan was alone and should be safe as long as she hid well enough.

But Yang Fan was in a situation where he could run away from the Monk, but not from the temple; he was still deciding which end to take care of.

Chen Zhong’s intent to kill him was clear, and Yang Fan worried that his family might be affected.

"Why so uncertain? If there’s something troubling you, just say it," Zhang Yulan noticed Yang’s subtle change in expression, her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly, she asked with concern.

Yang Fan stopped the tricycle by the roadside, lit a cigarette with some agitation, and said,"Sister Lan, isn’t it always more troubling to defend than to attack? Chen Zhong’s intention to kill us is obvious now. If he didn’t succeed at first, he will certainly try again. The best thing I can do now is to protect you and prevent any mishaps, but I’m worried that Chen Zhong might target my family to threaten me."

Zhang Yulan snatched the cigarette from Yang Fan’s hand, took a deep drag, and said nonchalantly, "Anyway, my life is in your hands now, you make the arrangements. Whether in bed or here, I’ll completely cooperate with whatever you decide."

"If your family’s yard is safe enough, I could actually come home with you. By staying together, even if something happens, we have strength in numbers to deal with it. Just think about how you want to explain it to your family."

Suddenly, an idea struck Yang Fan. He snatched the cigarette back from Zhang Yulan, took a deep puff, and laughed, "Stop smoking, it’s not suitable for a woman like you. Let’s go, come with me to my home!"

Zhang Yulan smiled sweetly, "Then it’s settled just like that, easy and quick. Stop for a bit when you reach town. It’s your sister-in-law and Little Mother at home now, right? What do they like?"

"A fugitive still worrying about what gifts to prepare, let’s go, go home!" Yang Fan had a plan in mind.

How to explain his relationship with Zhang Yulan was indeed a matter of great concern for Yang Fan at the moment.

If Zhang Yulan didn’t bring a gift, he still could make up a story.

If she brought gifts, then the path to explanation would almost be blocked.

If Zhang Yulan prepared a gift for Little Mother and sister-in-law, wouldn’t that answer already surface?

Ignoring Zhang Yulan’s request, Yang Fan directly brought her to the Bai Cao Pavilion.

Today, only sister-in-law was in the store.

Upon seeing Yang Fan bring a refined lady into the store, Ye Tong, who was sitting at the table doing accounts, was slightly taken aback.

However, she quickly concealed her expression and stood up to greet Zhang Yulan warmly.

Zhang Yulan, irritated that Yang Fan didn’t give her a chance to buy gifts, glanced at him covertly and then warmly greeted Ye Tong, giving a brief self-introduction.

She summarized her relationship with Yang Fan with the word "friend."

But Ye Tong was an incredibly astute woman, and she discerned from the subtle expressions that something was amiss.

However, Ye Tong did not reveal anything and continued to host warmly.

After preparing tea for Zhang Yulan, she used an excuse to have Yang Fan first check which herbs needed to be sent to Old Zhou, pulling Yang Fan into the backyard, "Fanzi, your relationship with this woman is extraordinary, isn’t it?"

Yang Fan now felt like he was on the executioner’s block.

Sister-in-law’s intuition was outrageously accurate.

And this time, there were clearly signs that he couldn’t cover it up.

Yang Fan thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "She’s my angel investor, sister-in-law, do you remember when I opened this store and someone sent a crate of money?"

"Was it her who sent it?" Ye Tong asked.

Yang Fan nodded his head.

An intense seriousness suddenly appeared in Ye Tong’s expression, "Fanzi, be honest with me, are you being kept by her?"

"Not at all, sister-in-law, what are you thinking? Do I look like the kind of person who feels complacent and entitled being a kept man?" Yang Fan said with a slight laugh, "It’s not that outrageous, but there are indeed some awkward points between us."

"How awkward, let me hear it. Although I told you before, to compensate for my deficit, I don’t mind you seeing other women, but being kept doesn’t count." Ye Tong’s face grew serious.

There’s a world of difference between finding women and Yang Fan being kept by someone.

"She is Chen Zhong’s wife, that influential one from Xin’an, the owner of those cell phones I collected before." Yang Fan was nervous, sister-in-law was clearly upset, and she rarely showed such a stern face.

"Fanzi, you... do you realize you are playing with fire? You actually dared to bring Chen Zhong’s wife to our place, your audacity is too great. Tell me, have you two slept together?" Ye Tong asked sternly.

Yang Fan held Ye Tong’s arms and said in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, listen to me first, this matter... it’s complicated!"
