“Benefactor!
Please forgive Chun Yan for the lies just now.
Chun Yan truly just wants to find a stable job quickly to help alleviate the family’s worries.”
Having heard the victim’s response, Lin Yifan sighed deeply.
Such people were too pitiable, much like himself a year ago.
However, this young woman was quite cunning, unlike those conservatively minded girls from the countryside, so her words still needed to be examined.
“How much does your brother’s dical treatnt cost?” Lin Yifan asked.
Giving money was the best way to solve the current situation.
As long as the money was given, everything would be resolved smoothly.
“Five…five hundred thousand!” Chun Yan answered timidly, as if afraid that Lin Yifan would reject her.
Yet, Lin Yifan was unexpectedly magnanimous, which sowhat surprised her.
“Fine!
Tomorrow I will send soone with you to help investigate.
If what you’ve said is true, I will imdiately cover the five hundred thousand for your brother’s dical expenses so you can continue your studies in peace.”
“No!
Benefactor, I can’t accept this without offering sothing in return.
If you pay for my brother’s dical bills, I must work hard for you, to repay this kindness.”
Lin Yifan was rather surprised, unclear why the victim had such a strong reaction.
If thought about in the usual way, being freed from this burden should make one happy and relieved.
Why then was the victim so nervous and so afraid?
He was baffled.
But perhaps she felt guilty inside and wanted to do sothing to compensate.
So he answered, “No need!
Consider it as gathering so good karma for myself.”
“That won’t do!” the victim strongly objected.
“There’s nothing wrong with it, let it be,” Lin Yifan comforted her, then attempted to leave.
But at that mont, Chun Yan clung desperately to his leg, pleading, “No!
If I receive without giving sothing in return, I would feel uncomfortable inside.
No matter what, I must do sothing for you!”
Indeed, he had guessed right; the victim was truly pleading out of guilt.
Lin Yifan understood the victim’s feelings.
After all, if it were him, he also wouldn’t want to enjoy others’ benevolence without contributing, so he replied, “How about this?
Co work as a servant in my house for a month as compensation for the five hundred thousand; what do you say?”
“Yes, yes!
As long as the benefactor does not let
gain without effort, that’s fine.” The victim nodded continuously, readily accepting Lin Yifan’s suggestion.
“Then I’ll take you to a hotel,” Lin Yifan proposed.
“A young girl outside alone can easily attract the wrong kind of attention.”
However, the victim opposed again: “No!
I’m scared!”
“There’s nothing to be scared of.”
“I am scared!” the victim stubbornly responded.
She was all quivering, visibly distressed.
Seeing this, Lin Yifan suspected the young girl might still have psychological scars and found it hard to accept staying alone, so he reluctantly replied, “Alright then, co back with
and stay with ; that should make you less afraid.”
Indeed, hearing his response, the victim’s brow relaxed instantly, and a smile appeared on her visibly distressed face.
“Thank you, benefactor, for providing shelter.
With the benefactor by my side, Chun Yan is not afraid of anything.”
Lin Yifan felt this young girl was taking advantage of him, although he was not sure what exactly had caught her interest.
Was it his handso appearance?
Or his wealth?
Regardless of which it was, he could not accept it.
Everything would be evaluated after a month; if a month later, the young girl still remained by his side, that would surely an there was an issue.
The girl’s problem was resolved, but what about Jiajia?
He was afraid that upon returning, Zhou Jiajia and the others seeing the ragged Chun Yan might interrogate and scold him severely.
So, he hurriedly took the little girl to a nearby clothing store to buy a few presentable outfits.
From the mont he got out of the car and entered the clothing store, astonished gazes never left him.
Every passerby who saw this scene thought he was a criminal, but the little girl’s deanor dispelled that notion.
The little girl behaved very comfortably, without any sign of fear or dread.
The sales clerk at the clothing store, seeing this scene, also beca vigilant, fearing that Lin Yifan was a criminal.
“Sir, may I help you with anything?” the sales clerk stepped forward and politely asked.
“Help
pick out a few presentable outfits for this little girl, money is no issue,” Lin Yifan replied.
Being a man, he didn’t know how to select won’s clothing, so he decided to step aside and rest.
“Certainly!
I’ll take care of that right away!”
Having said that, the sales clerk took Chun Yan to pick out clothes.
By then, a large crowd had gathered outside the store, continuously chattering.
Seeing this, Lin Yifan harshly retorted, “Scram!”
And seeing his fierce deanor, the crowd outside beca frightened and quickly dispersed.
Being a busybody often ends badly, so it’s better to mind one’s own business.
A little while later, the clothing was chosen.
Lin Yifan, without another word, pulled out his diamond VIP card and instructed the clerk to swipe it.
The mont they saw the diamond VIP card, the clothing store clerks were shocked, not expecting Lin Yifan to be of such noble status, and imdiately changed their attitude, serving him with great respect.
Soon, the bill was settled.
Then, Lin Yifan, carrying several outfits, left the store with the injured little girl.
After changing into new clothes, he noticed that the little girl was quite attractive, no wonder so criminals had targeted her.
Beautiful though she was, she could not compare to his four great beauties, so Lin Yifan did not take any romantic interest in her.
After buying the clothes, Lin Yifan went to a nearby convenience store to buy a bag of ice cream, then drove back to the villa.
Why buy another bag of ice cream?
Because the one he had was almost lted, so to avoid being scolded, he had to buy another.
A few minutes later, he arrived ho.
Upon hearing the car, Zhou Jiajia, Su Qingqing, and Xiao Fang imdiately went downstairs to greet Lin Yifan’s return.
However, when they reached the first floor and saw Lin Yifan had brought a young girl ho, they instantly collapsed.
Their worst fears had co true.
“You…
you…
you…”
“Really!
You dared to bring a young girl ho as if we didn’t exist, didn’t you?” Zhou Jiajia and the others pointed at Lin Yifan and scolded him, their whole bodies trembling with rage, their faces burning red.
They had intended to greet Lin Yifan with a hug and a kiss, but now, it seed unnecessary.
“Baby, listen to
explain, it’s not what you’re thinking,” Lin Yifan quickly explained.
He knew this would happen, so he was ntally prepared early on.
