746: Chapter 746: Acting Sneakily 746: Chapter 746: Acting Sneakily When Gu Fan hurried back, he saw the still frightened Qian Ye on the sofa and quickly asked, “What happened, what scared you like this?”
“Qian Feng just ca.” That was all Qian Ye needed to say and Gu Fan’s face imdiately fell.
He asked another question, “So, did she spot any flaws in you?”
Qian Ye shook his head, “I followed your instructions and spoke as little as possible, I don’t think I showed any slips.”
Gu Fan was still a bit worried, “What did Qian Feng want from you?”
“She mistook for Lin Xi.
She was worried because Lin Xi hadn’t been topping up her Qi recently.” As he said this, Qian Ye gritted his teeth, thinking that Qian Feng was a little too concerned about Lin Xi.
When Gu Fan heard this, his heart chilled.
Yes, how could he explain the sudden improvent of Lin Xi’s condition to Qian Feng?
Qian Ye told her that it was a powerful person who stepped in to help, but this person demanded secrecy.
This unlikely sounding story temporarily fooled Qian Feng.
Gu Fan thought about it and could only concoct this story.
He was understandably nervous – what if Qian Feng saw through their ruse?
“What else did Qian Feng say?” Gu Fan knew that since Qian Feng had co, she definitely had sothing else to say, more than just a visit.
Qian Ye thought for a mont before repeating Qian Feng’s words that she no longer intended to cause difficulties for Lin Xi.
The gist of it was that Qian Ye was Qian Ye, and Lin Xi was Lin Xi.
Lin Xi should not have to bear the consequences for the mistakes that Qian Ye made.
Having heard this, Gu Fan was overjoyed.
He thought Qian Feng was magnanimous, understanding, and…then he noticed Qian Ye’s displeased expression.
“Congratulations, you no longer have to worry about reprisals from Qian Feng.
You should worry about .
If Qian Feng doesn’t forgive , it ans that the mont she discovers my true identity, I’m in trouble.
If I’m in trouble, then Lin Xi won’t be able to return smoothly.” Qian Ye’s words were righteous, making it seem as if this were a matter of life and death.
Gu Fan quickly comforted, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely ensure your safety.
Just as I’ve said before, without us accompanying you, it’s best if you don’t go out.
The more you talk, the more you do, the greater the risk.”
“Alright, alright, I’ll listen to you.” Qian Ye seed to agree but there was a hint of mischief in his eyes, as if he was plotting sothing.
Gu Fan thought for a mont before saying, “Alright, to help you overco your shock, I’ll take you to the amusent park today.
I want to show you that there are many fun things to do in this world, not just shopping.”
“Great, you’ve finally thought of doing sothing good for .” Qian Ye looked forward to the outing and followed Gu Fan out the door.
Unfortunately, just as Gu Fan and Qian Ye left, they bumped into Lu Yi.
They exchanged glances and then displayed different emotions.
Lu Yi was delighted, “I just arrived and you must have sensed I was coming.
We are so in sync.”
“Really?” Gu Fan gave an awkward smile.
It wasn’t that he didn’t welco Lu Yi, but Lu Yi always introduced an unpredictable elent.
He didn’t know when Lu Yi would say the wrong thing and upset Qian Ye.
Lu Yi added, “It seems like you guys are heading out.
I’m bored too, why don’t you bring along?
I believe you don’t mind having a third wheel.”
Gu Fan was puzzled, “Shouldn’t you be at work at this hour?”
“What about you guys, shouldn’t you be at work too?” Lu Yi was equally puzzled but his comnt imdiately aroused suspicion in Gu Fan, “Since you know we’re at work, why are you here?
Did you make arrangents with Sister Su?”
“Well…” Lu Yi scratched his head and instinctively shifted his bag behind him.
Gu Fan spotted the slip and asked, “What’s in your bag, did you bring sothing for Sister Su?”
“No!
I was just passing by and habitually turned in, don’t overthink.” Lu Yi had just finished his sentence when Su Hui returned ho.
She saw everyone there and imdiately felt the tense atmosphere and wanted to leave.
Gu Fan directly stopped her, “Wait a minute, Sister Su, where are you going?”
“No, I just rembered that I forgot to buy shampoo, I’m off to the supermarket.” Su Hui was about to leave, but Gu Fan was faster and grabbed her arm, pulling her back.
“Alright, since both of you are here, if you have sothing to say, say it.” Gu Fan was now sure there was a secret between Lu Yi and Su Hui, It was not a romantic relationship but it seed as if Su Hui had sothing for Lu Yi to do, and she didn’t want Gu Fan to know.
Su Hui feigned confusion, “Lu Yi, why are you here?
You should have told you were coming over, I would have made you so coffee.”
“No need, I was just passing by and I strangely ended up here.
Occupational hazards, huh?” He laughed it off, clearly trying to downplay the situation.
Gu Fan wasn’t convinced.
He gave Lu Yi and Su Hui a doubtful look but didn’t press the matter.
He believed Su Hui had her reasons for keeping secrets.
As a result, Gu Fan offered, “Alright, Lin Xi and I are going to the amusent park, want to join us?”
Su Hui imdiately declined with a laugh, “No need, I just finished work and I’m tired.
I’m going to rest.”
Lu Yi said, “After giving it so thought, as your good brother, I shouldn’t disrupt your happy life.
But since I’m here, Sister Su, could you make a cup of coffee please?” After saying that, he followed Su Hui into the old house.
Qian Ye frowned, “Those two are keeping sothing from you, don’t you want to know what it is?”
“It’s alright, I trust them.” Gu Fan said, then laughed and walked away.
In the old house, Su Hui watched through a window as Gu Fan and Qian Ye truly left.
Only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.
“Sister Su, there are two things I don’t understand.
First, why do you want to gather information on Yang Xinran behind Gu Fan’s back?
Second, I think Lin Xi is the most suitable person to handle the matter with Yang Xinran.
Why do you have to find ?” As Lu Yi spoke, he took the docunts out of his bag.
“Alright, enough complaining.
I didn’t choose Lin Xi because I was afraid she would tell Gu Fan, so I only had you to turn to.” Su Hui accepted the docunts and seed very satisfied, “Thank you for gathering so much information for .
I’ll make you a coffee next ti.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Yi was disappointed, “Sister Su, does your ‘next ti’ an it will never happen?”
“Why don’t you trust ?” Su Hui playfully hit Lu Yi, then reminded him once again to keep the investigation of Yang Xinran confidential.
