Chapter 208: Chapter 207: Bro, Please Stop!

“Her name is Huang Xiaoya, she’s an old acquaintance of mine from Haicheng. She’s been targeted by Shen Yueli, so she’s here to stay for a while.”

Faced with Tie Hao’s hesitant, oddly focused gaze.

Lin Fan’s face flushed, and he reluctantly gave a brief explanation.

“This is Tie Hao, Mr. Xia Sr.’s personal Guard Officer, just call him Uncle Tie.”

Turning his head, Lin Fan spoke to the somewhat cautious Huang Xiaoya.

“Hello, Uncle Tie, sorry for the trouble in the future…”

Huang Xiaoya forced a smile, handing her suitcase to Mrs. Wu, who had come over at Tie Hao’s signal.

“Kid, good luck to you. Miss Bingbing is about to blow her top… Who told you to keep getting involved with so many women?”

The group walked further into the courtyard.

Tie Hao and Lin Fan walked side by side in the front, clearly sharing a mischievous whisper.

“I’m innocent with them, what do I have to be afraid of?”

Lin Fan jolted slightly, then calmly shook his head.

Yet the tightly pressed corners of his lips deeply betrayed him.

“Sister Youwei, let me tell you, I’ve known Brother Fan since we were kids. We’re as close as brothers!”

“He used to come over all the time to drink with me, and he was always so humble… by the way, do you have any sisters or something you could introduce me to?”

Not even close to the hall yet, Fatty Chu’s booming voice could be heard from afar.

“… Stay away from that damn fatty when you can.”

Lin Fan’s lips twitched as he turned to remind Huang Xiaoya who was behind him.

“Yeah, I know him. He’s the famous playboy at school and used to always come and harass me, following my schedule everywhere.”

Huang Xiaoya nodded in agreement, clearly aware of Fatty Chu beforehand.

“Don’t be fooled by Lin Fan’s righteous appearance; he’s full of schemes inside. Unlike me, I may seem sleazy, but I’ve got exemplary character!”

Entering the hall, several girls, including Yuan Youwei, sat there with displeased expressions.

Leaning on a single crutch, Fatty Chu was all animated, spitting as he spoke enthusiastically.

“Are you a worm in my belly? You know everything about me?”

Smack!

Lin Fan stormed forward with a dark expression, smacking the back of Fatty Chu’s head.

“Who? Who dares hit me… ouch, Brother Lin, you’re back?”

Fatty Chu fumed, cursing as he turned his head.

But facing Lin Fan’s stare, he immediately shrunk his neck, sheepishly smiling with guilt written all over his face.

“Lin Fan! Why did you make her knock us out!”

“Hmph, it’s amusing. As if someone has to cling to you… why did you bring Huang Xiaoya back!”

“Brother, you’re too much. How can you be this fickle? Aren’t the four of us enough?”

Seeing Lin Fan approach with Huang Xiaoya, Yuan Youwei and the other three were stunned, exchanging bewildered glances.

Soon, chaos erupted!

Yuan Youwei jumped up, cheek twitching with real anger.

Xia Bingbing pointed at the silent and downcast Huang Xiaoya, stamping her foot and yelling.

Ying Yutang even looked anguished, her eyes turning slightly red.

Only Wu Miaomiao stood with her arms crossed, leaning against the corner, blowing bubbles in boredom.

All she wanted was Lin Fan to help with suppressing her Charm Skill… how many women he had was none of her concern.

“Stop arguing! Huang Xiaoya was targeted by Shen Yueli and almost got into trouble just now.”

Lin Fan was exasperated.

Under the unusual gazes, he had to put on a stern face and said, “She will stay here for now, at least until things calm down.”

“Bingbing, please help arrange it. Xiao Ya is my disciple from now on, so treat her like your sister.”

“No, why should I help you with your women? You’re such a playboy!”

Xia Bingbing looked unwilling, rolling her eyes at the embarrassed Huang Xiaoya.

“Listen, this isn’t a joke. Shen Yueli just sent someone to take her away. If she doesn’t stay at the Xia Family Mansion, how can I ensure her safety?”

Lin Fan paused, stepping forward to meet Xia Bingbing’s gaze: “You know I won’t make a move on her.”

“Hmph, who knows what you’re planning… Fine, she looks so pitiful anyway. She can stay here for now.”

Xia Bingbing’s expression softened, reaching forward to pull Huang Xiaoya by the wrist and leading her to the guest room.

“And you, go home now. What are you doing here so late?”

Turning around, Lin Fan coldly looked at Ying Yutang, biting his lip as he scolded harshly.

“I don’t need you meddling in my affairs. Just leave!”

“Brother, how can you treat me like this… Fine, I’m leaving right now.”

Ying Yutang looked downcast, dragging heavy steps with a choke as she headed to the door.

“Tang Tang, don’t listen to your brother. There are good men all over, like me…”

Fatty Chu hurriedly followed, limping with giggles to comfort her.

To his surprise, Ying Yutang didn’t appreciate it at all, instead, she kicked him on his injured leg with a scowl.

Fatty Chu instantly winced in pain, grimacing as he gasped.

“Youwei, you should rest too. Tomorrow morning, I’ll go with you to the Wen family and break off the engagement.”

After driving away the two, Lin Fan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He spoke quietly to the smirking Yuan Youwei.

“Forget it, you’re a busy person, why let some little thing of mine interfere with your pursuits?”

Yuan Youwei snorted, leading the disdainful Mrs. Xue to their room with a huff.

Wu Miaomiao yawned broadly, tossed Lin Fan a flirtatious glance, and gracefully left on her own.

In an instant, the previously noisy hall.

Left only Lin Fan and Fatty Chu staring at each other.

The atmosphere turned awkward, neither spoke up.

“… Brother, you should stop. You have so many girls around you, can’t you let your little brother have a chance?”

After a moment, Fatty Chu rubbed his head, suddenly complaining with a bitter face.

“You know I like Goddess Huang, but you brought her in, planning to keep her hidden away?”

“Stop talking nonsense. She’s the adopted granddaughter handpicked by my master, from now on she’s my disciple. How could I have ulterior motives?”

Lin Fan’s face darkened, instinctively raising his hand again.

“Fine, you said it, from now on I’m responsible for caring for Goddess Huang. Living so close, I bet I can win her heart!”

Fatty Chu paused, then gleefully looked in the direction Huang Xiaoya left.

The buzzing phone vibration interrupted his joy.

Upon checking, Fatty Chu’s expression changed.

“Brother, something happened at The First People’s Hospital. My uncle, the director, texted saying that the out-of-town couple and the boy were taken away!”

What?

Something happened again at the hospital?

On hearing this, Lin Fan’s face stiffened, his gaze quivered coldly.

No doubt about it, apart from the Ying family, who else would dare act?

This is too much, truly too much!

“Lin Fan, come out and take a look, there’s trouble!”

The next moment.

A screech of brakes came from the distant gate of the courtyard.

Soon after, the terribly grim-faced Tie Hao rushed over urgently and spoke.
