268: Chapter 264: Changing Dressings 268: Chapter 264: Changing Dressings Ye Fan decided to seek revenge against Dong Ziqi at next year’s Overseas Ancient Martial Arts Gathering, Zhuo Jun Wu said, “However, before you find out Dong Ziqi’s school, you still need to beware of Dong Ziqi coming back to kill you.”
“Although Gulan Martial Arts Hall can temporarily keep you safe, after all, it’s not your own ho.” Zhuo Jun Wu continued, “I will imdiately send your third senior brother, Shen Bian Cheng, to Hua Hai City to protect you.”
“Thank you, Master,” Ye Fan said.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan placed the mobile phone on the bedside and quietly began to rest.
Around nine o’clock, the phone suddenly rang.
Ye Fan reached out and saw it was a call from Zhao Lina.
He guessed that Zhao Lina wanted to tell him that He Youchang and Liu Tianxi of the Qinglang Gang had been assassinated last night.
Upon answering the call, Zhao Lina indeed happily told Ye Fan the news.
“The city has reached a consensus and decided to clean up the Qinglang Gang with lightning speed, completely eliminating the adverse effects caused by the Qinglang Gang within a month, including those providing protection for the Qinglang Gang,” Zhao Lina said with a laugh, “The whole city is going to shake now.
It will take at least half a year for this turmoil to completely settle.”
Zhao Lina continued, “Now that the Qinglang Gang is too busy to care for itself, you can move freely without worrying about their harassnt.”
“Okay, thank you,” Ye Fan said.
Zhao Lina giggled and said, “I won’t chat with you anymore, I’ll be quite busy these days.
Goodbye.”
With that, she hurriedly hung up the phone.
Not long after Zhao Lina hung up, Tantai Wanrong also called to tell Ye Fan the news.
Having taken two calls, Ye Fan was completely certain that the Qinglang Gang was going to be thoroughly eradicated, and even those associated with the Qinglang Gang would be cleansed.
At eleven o’clock, Nie Yuling called.
“Brother Ye, were He Youchang and Liu Tianxi assassinated by soone you sent?” Nie Yuling excitedly asked, “I heard that a large number of police and ard police are being dispatched around the city to capture mbers of the Qinglang Gang.”
Ye Fan spoke calmly, “You don’t know the process, you just need to know that the Qinglang Gang will soon beco a part of the history of Hua Hai City’s underworld.”
“Yes,” Nie Yuling suppressed her laughter and said earnestly, “I won’t reveal this to anyone.”
“Mhm,” Ye Fan responded, softening his tone, “Although the Qinglang Gang’s downfall is imminent, you should still lie low these days and not jump the gun too soon lest the police take you down as well.”
“Mhm, I understand that,” Nie Yuling said, then explained, “In fact, apart from so old debts from twenty or thirty years ago, the Qingmu Gang itself is very clean.
We have already cleaned up our operations and are doing legitimate business.”
Ye Fan responded noncommittally.
Nie Yuling then asked, “Brother Ye, when can I see you?”
“Not convenient these days, maybe later,” Ye Fan said.
“Oh,” Nie Yuling sounded sowhat disappointed.
She had thought with the complete downfall of the Qinglang Gang, she would be able to et Ye Fan, but it still wasn’t possible.
At twelve o’clock, half an hour after Ye Fan finished his al, Lin Yuehua brought in a basin of warm water, then fetched white gauze, a towel, and the secret dicinal ointnt from Gulan Martial Arts Hall.
After closing the door, Lin Yuehua walked gracefully to the bedside.
Ye Fan, resting his head on the pillow and tilting his head to look at Lin Yuehua, revealed a smile and said, “Are you here to change my dressing?
Thank you for your efforts.”
Lin Yuehua still wore a cold yet suprely beautiful expression on her face, silently moved a chair to the bedside, sat down, and then bent forward to stretch out her slender, jade-like hands to untie the white bandages around Ye Fan’s body.
Despite not showing Ye Fan a friendly face, Lin Yuehua’s movents were very gentle while removing the bandages, so Ye Fan didn’t feel much pain.
On the contrary, as Lin Yuehua leaned over to untie the bandages, their proximity was closer than ever before.
Ye Fan slled the faint, enchanting fragrance from Lin Yuehua, reminiscent of orchids in a deep valley, and he could closely observe her stunningly beautiful face.
Lin Yuehua wore a plain white robe and her hairstyle and makeup were retro, possessing a dignified and graceful deanor characteristic of ancient ladies.
Her beautiful face had the unique features of a “lon seed face, phoenix eyes, a small nose, and a touch of red on her lips,” enhanced by the room’s retro layout and decorations, which made Ye Fan montarily think he had traveled back in ti, receiving care from an ancient beauty.
For a mont, Ye Fan was sowhat enchanted.
As Lin Yuehua finished removing the bandages, she noticed Ye Fan staring at her intently, which made her feel sowhat embarrassed and annoyed.
She huffed, “Close your eyes, stop staring!”
Ye Fan snapped back to reality and instead of complying, he sincerely complinted, “You are truly beautiful.”
Lin Yuehua’s hands, which were busy with the bandages, stiffened, and a slight anger of being teased showed on her beautiful face as she coldly said, “If you continue to frivolously tease , you can replace the bandages yourself!”
“Hehe, don’t be angry.
I ant what I said,” Ye Fan quickly said with an apologetic smile, “Since you don’t like being complinted, I’ll say no more.”
Lin Yuehua huffed lightly and remained silent, but her expression softened a bit.
After a while, all the bandages on Ye Fan’s body were removed.
Lin Yuehua turned around to wash the white towel in a basin, then wrung it out dry, faced Ye Fan again, and gently wiped the old ointnt from his wounds.
It was a bit painful, but completely bearable, especially with Lin Yuehua’s gentle actions.
However, halfway through the wiping, Ye Fan suddenly pretended to wince in pain sharply.
Lin Yuehua imdiately withdrew her hand in fright, then continued to wipe, but her movents beca even gentler, giving him a sense of enjoynt.
Thus, Ye Fan occasionally pretended to sharply wince in pain, which made Lin Yuehua’s delicate, pale hands increasingly gentle.
Finally, the old ointnt was all wiped off.
Lin Yuehua put the towel back in the basin and straightened her slender waist.
“Your injuries still need to be massaged with inner strength to clear the channels, and it might be quite painful—bear with it,” Lin Yuehua said.
Ye Fan smiled, “Don’t worry, as a tough guy, I won’t cry out in pain.”
“Humph, just the wiping of old ointnt made you grimace,” Lin Yuehua retorted unkindly, “such a grown man yet can’t withstand a bit of pain.”
“Uh…” Ye Fan was at a loss for words, his face flushing as he forced a laugh, “Hehe, that was then, this is now.
Don’t worry, I’ll at most gasp a couple of tis.”
“Hope so,” said Lin Yuehua.
Having said that, she channeled her inner strength into her jade-like hands and gently massaged and kneaded Ye Fan’s injured muscles.
Perhaps Lin Yuehua thought Ye Fan was really in pain, so her soft, boneless, pale hands exerted very little force, moving extrely gently over Ye Fan’s skin, rely using inner strength to stimulate and clear the channels.
This made Ye Fan feel the tense, swollen muscles and skin gradually relax under the mild stimulation of the inner strength—a very comfortable sensation.
Besides, he felt Lin Yuehua’s hands were indeed very soft, smooth as creamy jade.
This comfort made him half-close his eyes, allowing him to closely and attentively admire Lin Yuehua’s stunningly beautiful features.
