249: Chapter 245 Nie Yuling Seeks Help 249: Chapter 245 Nie Yuling Seeks Help Walking out of the factory workshop, Ye Fan headed toward the main gate, soon seeing Lu Xiaoman standing against the wall with her arms wrapped around her, slightly shrinking from the dim light, while Shi Sheng stood about two or three meters away from her. Both were facing inwards, especially Lu Xiaoman, whose gaze continually hoped for something inside, so when Ye Fan saw them, they also spotted him. “Ye Fan.” Lu Xiaoman couldn’t help rushing over and threw herself into his arms. Ye Fan lightly hugged Lu Xiaoman, comforting, “Don’t be afraid, it’s all over now.” “Okay.” Lu Xiaoman responded. By this time, Shi Sheng had quietly returned to the workshop. After comforting Lu Xiaoman for a while, Ye Fan felt that her body was a bit cold. He let her step out of his embrace, took off the T-shirt he was wearing, and handed it to Lu Xiaoman, “It’s already autumn, the nights are damp with fog, wear this for now so you don’t catch a cold.” Lu Xiaoman had just been through a massive scare and was extremely emotionally unsettled. Now, with the chill from the fog, she was liable to get sick. It was the first time Lu Xiaoman saw Ye Fan with his bare chest, her pretty face blushed with embarrassment, but her beautiful eyes couldn’t help stealing a few glances at his attractively defined abs. She didn’t refuse and turned her back to slip on Ye Fan’s T-shirt. Once she’d put on the shirt, she turned back to face Ye Fan. Ye Fan paid attention to Lu Xiaoman’s expression and noticed that she didn’t seem as terrified and lost as other girls might be, nor was she still panicking after the event. He breathed a slight sigh of relief. “Have you called your family?” Ye Fan asked. Lu Xiaoman snapped back to reality and with a startled cry exclaimed, “Ah! Not yet,” while quickly rummaging through her handbag for her phone. She soon found her phone. Originally, since Brother Liang had taken a fancy to Lu Xiaoman’s beauty through a photograph, he specifically ordered not to mess with her. Those responsible for abducting Lu Xiaoman naturally didn’t dare to touch her. Not only that, but they didn’t even take her mobile phone or handbag. Of course, Lu Xiaoman’s phone had been turned off by them because there had been incoming calls. After turning on her phone, Lu Xiaoman immediately called home to confirm her safety, saying she was out playing with colleagues and friends and telling her parents not to worry. Once Lu Xiaoman had finished the call, Ye Fan guessed that Lu Chengqiang and Shi Sheng would have dealt with the Qinglang Club members by now, so he said to Lu Xiaoman, “Let’s leave this place.” “Okay.” Lu Xiaoman replied and then reached out to hold on to Ye Fan’s arm, and they walked back inside together. By the time they reached the workshop’s main gate, Lu Chengqiang and Shi Sheng were already waiting by their car. Lu Chengqiang casually leaned against the car, while Shi Sheng stood straight like a javelin. “Brother Ye.” Lu Chengqiang and Shi Sheng quickly greeted. Ye Fan nodded slightly and said, “Thanks for your hard work tonight.” “Haha, what hard work? We didn’t even get to warm up,” Lu Chengqiang laughed. Ye Fan glanced one more time inside the workshop, then said, “Let’s go back. The Qinglang Club will clean up the mess themselves.” The Qinglang Club was originally part of the underworld, entangled in their own mess. Plus, with their prior kidnapping and attempted murder, even if someone had died, they wouldn’t dare to call the police easily. They would just quietly clean up the traces and later seek revenge against Ye Fan. Lu Chengqiang and Shi Sheng nodded. Thus, the four of them got into their separate cars and then drove away from the scene. Driving on the road, because the car’s interior was warmer with the air conditioning on than outside, Lu Xiaoman removed Ye Fan’s shirt, which he was still shirtless, and returned it to him. Ye Fan proceeded to put on his shirt while driving, as the roads in Quyang New District were wide and traffic and pedestrians sparse. “Tonight, don’t go home. Rest at my place,” Ye Fan said to Lu Xiaoman. He worried the Green Wolf gang might be vicious enough to seek retribution overnight. Lu Xiaoman originally wanted to refuse, but Ye Fan’s tone had a certain definitive quality that made her nod in agreement. However, although she agreed to go to Ye Fan’s place, thinking about spending the night at his house made her a bit nervous, yet there was also a hint of anticipation. But, half an hour later, she found her nervousness was unnecessary, as Ye Fan drove into a five-star hotel called Dingsheng International Hotel and they checked into the presidential suite. “I’ve been dealing with some issues recently, so I’m temporarily staying here,” Ye Fan explained in response to Lu Xiaoman’s puzzled look. Lu Xiaoman nodded, head slightly bowed in contemplation, more convinced of her previous suspicion that Ye Fan was no ordinary retired soldier. Whatever the reason, who could be ordinary to rent the presidential suite as a home? Ye Fan could see that Lu Xiaoman was starting to doubt his current status, but he didn’t know quite how to explain it to her just then. So, to avoid the awkwardness for the moment, he suggested, “You must be tired. Go take a nice hot shower. There’s a change of sleepwear here that should be clean for you to wear.” “Okay,” Lu Xiaoman responded, also unsure how to broach the topic with Ye Fan. With the relationship between her and Ye Fan reaching this level of intimacy, even though Ye Fan hadn’t officially asked her to be his girlfriend, she could no longer pretend she was indifferent to knowing about his family background. She was a traditional woman from Huaxia, unable to follow Ye Fan in pursuit of a transient love filled with the notion of “not seeking eternal togetherness, only treasuring the moment.” It was best to give both parties some preparation time, which would be beneficial for everyone. After Lu Xiaoman went to take a shower, Ye Fan sat down on the sofa in the living room and made calls to Lu Chengqiang and Shi Sheng. “Qiangzi, I’m currently occupied with looking after Lu Xiaoman and can’t leave her side tonight. Help me protect someone else,” Ye Fan said on the phone to Lu Chengqiang. Though he had resolved to eradicate the societal tumor that was the Green Wolf gang, his actions couldn’t commence until daylight the next day. However, given the Green Wolf gang’s notorious reputation and their lack of moral or humane boundaries, he had to guard against the possibility of their striking back overnight to prevent a lifelong regret. Lu Chengqiang replied solemnly, “Boss, please give the order.” Ye Fan shook his head with a wry smile, “Go to Villa No. 25 in Yulin Bay Residential Area and stand watch for the night. Your… sister-in-law is staying there. Then escort her to work the next morning. I fear the Green Wolf gang might exact revenge overnight.” Knowing that Jiang Yingming was aware of his relationship with Li Zhaojun, he had to be cautious in case Jiang Yingming informed the Green Wolf gang. Although, logically, with Li Zhaojun’s status, the Green Wolf gang wouldn’t dare harm her easily, he still couldn’t disregard the gang’s inhuman potential. “Protecting sister-in-law, no worries. If she’s harmed by even a single hair, you can take my life to account for it!” Lu Chengqiang affirmed, patting his chest. Ye Fan, helpless at the pledge Lu Chengqiang had made, could only smile and then added, “There’s one thing, she mustn’t find out about it.” “No problem!” Lu Chengqiang assured. After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan immediately called Shi Sheng and asked him to keep watch downstairs at Lu Xiaoman’s house that night; Shi Sheng agreed at once. With the phone calls over, Ye Fan set his phone on the coffee table, contemplating how to mobilize his forces to completely destroy the Green Wolf gang. In the midst of his thoughts, his phone suddenly rang. Picking it up, he saw it was Nie Yuling calling. He immediately answered the call. “Ye Fan, save me…” Nie Yuling’s voice came through the phone, almost in despair.
