Chapter 288: Will I Give You Money When Your Bodyguard?
Xiao Fan and Li Yalan returned to Beiyu City later in the evening.
After getting off the car, Li Yalan asked: "Brother, where are you going now?"
Xiao Fan looked around: "I don't know. I plan to find a hotel to stay for one night and then rent a house tomorrow."
Li Yalan was surprised: "Don't you have a place to live?"
Xiao Fan shook his head.
Li Yalan smiled and said, "Why don't you stay at my place? Anyway, I happen to have a vacant room there."
Xiao Fan couldn't help but be stunned. Has she always been so casual? He didn't even know her very well, but she actually invited him to her home so easily?
He looked at her: "You let me spend the night at your house, aren't you afraid that I will take the opportunity to do something to you at night?"
Li Yalan smiled and said: "As soon as I saw you, I knew you were not a bad person. Otherwise, why would I invite you to my home?"
Xiao Fan was speechless, this woman's heart was too big.
"Forget it, I'll just find a hotel to stay in and let's go." Xiao Fan said and prepared to leave.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Li Yalan hurriedly went up and stopped him: "No, brother, you can stay at my place temporarily. I won't charge you any money, so you can save some hotel money, right?"
Xiao Fan looked at her: "Are you afraid that they will find your home?"
Li Yalan looked embarrassed.
Although she didn't speak, Xiao Fan could tell from her appearance that she must be afraid that those people would cause trouble for her again, so she wanted to be her bodyguard.
Xiao Fan: "It's not a long-term solution for you to continue like this. Even if I protect you tonight, what will I do tomorrow? I can't live with you forever."
Li Yalan smiled and said: "As long as you are willing to stay at my place, I will never charge you a penny for rent."
Xiao Fan laughed: "You want me to be your bodyguard, and you still want to charge me money?"
Li Yalan chuckled: "Oh, there's nothing I can do about it. Brother, you are so skilled. I feel at ease when you are here."
Xiao Fan glanced at her: "Okay, for the sake of your grandfather saving my girlfriend, I will protect you again tonight, but you have to think of your own solution later. I will go out to find a house to live in tomorrow.
"
"No problem!" Li Yalan smiled.
Then Li Yalan took him to her home.
About half an hour later, the two arrived at Li Yalan's home.
After Xiao Fan entered, he realized that it was a one-bedroom apartment with only one bedroom and a living room. There were no extra rooms at all.
"Didn't you say there is an extra room? Where is it?" Xiao Fan asked in surprise.
Li Yalan pointed to the bedroom over there: "Well, you can just sleep in that room tonight."
Xiao Fan was confused: "Then where do you sleep?"
Li Yalan smiled and patted the sofa under her butt: "I can just sleep here."
Xiao Fan's face was full of black lines: "Stop making trouble, why did the master sleep on the sofa?"
Li Yalan smiled and said: "It's okay. I often fall asleep watching TV here. I'm used to it. I'll change the bed sheets and quilt covers for you later. You can just go in the water tonight."
Xiao Fan: "No, I'll sleep on the sofa and you sleep in your own room."
"No, you are a guest. How can I let you sleep on the sofa?" Li Yalan objected immediately.
Xiao Fan looked at her: "Either I leave, or you sleep in the room, you choose one of the two."
Li Yalan looked embarrassed: "This..."
In the end, she could only sigh helplessly: "Okay, then I will bring you a quilt and bring it to the sofa later. I will wrong you tonight."
Xiao Fan said nothing more.
Then Li Yalan got some fruits for Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan ate the fruit and asked, "You left your grandfather alone in the village. What if they come to trouble him?"
Li Yalan smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have sent my grandfather to my relatives. They will definitely not find him."
Xiao Fan saw her saying that and didn't ask any more questions.
At about ten o'clock in the evening, Li Yalan came out of the room with a quilt for Xiao Fan: "Can you see if this quilt can cover you warmly? If not, I will give you another one."
Xiao Fan took the quilt and said, "Okay, no need to hug me anymore."
Li Yalan handed him another pillow: "This pillow is for you."
As soon as Xiao Fan took the pillow, there was a knock on the door.
Li Yalan suddenly became wary: "Did they come to the door so soon?"
Xiao Fan heard that the knock on the door was not very loud: "It shouldn't be. You should go and have a look."
Li Yalan went to open the door carefully.
"Why are you here?" She was a little surprised when she saw the man standing at the door.
Zhang Xiaowu smiled and said: "You didn't expect it, did you? I came to see you as soon as I got off the plane. Are you surprised?"
Li Yalan looked embarrassed: "Why didn't you say hello in advance when you came here?"
Zhang Xiaowu smiled and was about to speak when he suddenly saw Xiao Fan on the sofa behind him. He was stunned: "Who is he?"
Li Yalan turned to look at Xiao Fan and introduced: "He is my friend."
Zhang Xiaowu glanced at Xiao Fan, a hint of displeasure clearly flashed in his eyes.
But he did not attack directly. He smiled and handed a bag in his hand to Li Yalan: "This is the gift I brought back to you from abroad. Please accept it."
"No need." Li Yalan refused.
Zhang Xiaowu smiled and said: "What's wrong? Now that you have a boyfriend, you don't want me as your best friend? You don't even dare to accept gifts?"
"No, he is not my boyfriend, you misunderstood." Li Yalan explained.
Zhang Xiaowu was slightly surprised: "Not your boyfriend?"
Li Yalan's face was complicated: "I can't explain this to you at the moment. You can go back first. I will go find you tomorrow."
Zhang Xiaowu looked at Xiao Fan behind him. He smiled and said to Li Yalan: "Okay, I'll leave first. If you need anything, call me."
After saying that, he put the gift in front of Li Yalan's feet and turned around and left.
Li Yalan closed the door and came to the table with the gift. She looked at the gift and didn't know what to do.
Xiao Fan asked: "That man likes you?"
Li Yalan nodded: "I have liked me for many years, but I really only regard him as a brother, never as a boyfriend."
Xiao Fan: "It seems that I came at the wrong time today."
"No, don't overthink it. I'll just explain it to him tomorrow," Li Yalan said.
Xiao Fan smiled and said: "Then you should talk to him carefully."
Li Yalan sighed, she felt a little complicated now.
No one came to trouble Li Yalan that night. She didn't know whether it was because of Xiao Fan's presence, but she felt a lot safer.
The next morning, Xiao Fan was about to go out to find a house.
Li Yalan's cell phone suddenly rang.
She took it out and saw that it was a video call from her grandfather, and pressed the connect button.
The next moment she looked shocked!
"Grandpa!" She didn't expect that the group of people actually caught her grandpa!
In the video, the old man had been beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, there was blood at the corner of his mouth, and his consciousness was even blurred.
