558: Chapter 554: Farewell 558: Chapter 554: Farewell Tantai Wanrong laughed so hard she couldn’t straighten up, and Ye Fan could only awkwardly offer a forced smile.
After a while, Tantai Wanrong managed to suppress her laughter and, still smiling, said, “Let’s change it anyway, it’s not sanitary, be careful or you might get sick.”
Saying this, she opened the wardrobe, searched through it, and pulled out a light purple pair of underwear, saying, “These underwear, when I bought them I thought they were a bit too big, and I haven’t even worn them yet, you can wear them.”
Ye Fan felt a bit disappointed inside, but then he ca to understand—how could his Aunt Yan be that kind of frivolous person.
He said, “Thank you, Aunt Yan, but you know I know so Qigong and can directly dry the wet clothes on my body, so…”
“Well, alright then.
I almost forgot you had that unique skill,” Tantai Wanrong said with a smile.
Then, Ye Fan and Tantai Wanrong walked out of the master bedroom together, Ye Fan to take a shower in the bathroom, Tantai Wanrong back to the living room.
When Ye Fan ca out after his shower, Li Zhaojun, Tantai Wanrong, and the others were talking even more cheerfully.
For Tantai Wanrong, Zhao Tianya, and Qin ngyao, tonight was quite delightful.
They initially thought Ye Fan would leave Hua Hai completely, making future etings difficult.
However, they did not expect that Ye Fan wouldn’t leave them, which was a pleasant little surprise.
Since Ye Fan had to report to Mingde County the next day, Tantai Wanrong let everyone rest at midnight, and they did not continue playing.
When they went to sleep in separate rooms, Li Zhaojun chose not to sleep with Zhao Tianya but with Tantai Wanrong instead.
Her reason was that she wanted to lie in bed and talk with Tantai Wanrong all night long.
As for Ye Fan, he, of course, slept on the living room sofa.
Although Tantai Wanrong’s place was a three-bedroom, two-living room layout, one of the rooms was used as a study and had no bed.
The lights were turned off, and Ye Fan lay on the sofa, curled up slightly on his side, covered with a cotton blanket.
The sofa in Tantai Wanrong’s house was just an ordinary sofa and was sowhat short for the tall Ye Fan, but he slept soundly because the blanket carried Tantai Wanrong’s body scent as she had used it before.
Ye Fan quickly fell asleep, but after barely an hour, his alertness made him suddenly hear a quiet door opening.
The sound ca from the room where Zhao Tianya was sleeping.
However, he ignored it and continued to sleep, thinking it was soone going to the bathroom.
No, soon he heard footsteps that weren’t right, as they were approaching him.
“Is Sister Zhao too bold?
She dares to co to in Aunt Yan’s house,” Ye Fan thought sowhat helplessly.
After a while, the person arrived in front of the sofa and stopped, but didn’t directly wake him up.
Instead, she just stood quietly and watched him.
Ye Fan waited for a while, feeling uneasy.
With Zhao Tianya’s personality and their familiar relationship, it was impossible for her to just silently watch him.
So, he feigned waking up startled and slowly opened his eyes, only to see a slender young girl’s figure standing in front of the sofa.
“Yaoyao?” Ye Fan asked softly in surprise, sitting up.
Qin ngyao explained, “I was thirsty and wanted to drink so water, and thought I’d check if you hadn’t kicked off your blanket.
Sorry for waking you up.”
“Oh, it’s okay,” Ye Fan said, “Have a seat.”
Qin ngyao shook her head, “I’m going to get so water.”
With that, she walked to the water dispenser, filled a glass, drank it, and then went straight back to her room.
Ye Fan saw that Qin ngyao had gone back to her room and thought to himself that this was not Qin ngyao’s usual behavior.
However, he did not care much, so he lay down on the sofa and continued to sleep.
As dawn broke, he awoke the next day to find Tantai Wanrong already making breakfast in the kitchen.
Ye Fan had breakfast with the four won.
As he was about to leave, Tantai Wanrong stood in front of Ye Fan, fixed his collar, and said gently, “I originally wanted to see you off, but I have a very important governnt eting this morning and cannot get away.”
“Aunt Wanrong, don’t be polite with .
It’s not like I am going far, and I might see you again in half a month,” Ye Fan said with a smile.
Tantai Wanrong nodded slightly and advised, “After you report in, if you encounter any problems, you can call for advice.
As an old hand in the officialdom, I can see through quite a few things.”
“Okay.
Don’t worry,” Ye Fan replied with a nod.
After concluding their conversation, Zhao Tianya said, “Ye Fan, your Aunt Wanrong doesn’t have ti, but your Aunt Tianya has plenty of it.
I’ll take you!”
Then, she turned to Li Zhaojun and asked, “Third sister, you should have ti, right?”
“Yes, I’ll accompany Ye Fan,” Li Zhaojun said calmly.
Ye Fan replied, “Actually, there’s no need to see off.
I’m not taking public transport; I’m driving there.
I appreciate your intentions.”
He had not intended to have anyone see him off because he did not want to witness Lu Xiaoman and Li Zhaojun eting.
It wasn’t that he feared they would quarrel upon eting, but he was worried that Lu Xiaoman would return ho and brood depressively for days after encountering Li Zhaojun.
Lu Xiaoman was delicate and already in a vulnerable position.
Furthermore, Li Zhaojun used to be her prestigious CEO.
Even if Li Zhaojun was not hostile, just seeing her would dampen Lu Xiaoman’s spirits.
“How can that be?” Zhao Tianya insisted on going.
“Really, there’s no need for anyone to see off.
I’m not going on a long trip,” Ye Fan maintained.
Li Zhaojun spoke up, “Second sister, Ye Fan is right.
We don’t need to see him off.
Whatever needs to be said can be said now.”
“Alright then,” Zhao Tianya conceded, not wanting to appear overly eager.
However, she did have so things to say to Ye Fan, but they couldn’t be discussed in front of others.
Hesitating for a mont, Li Zhaojun then said to Ye Fan, “Ye Fan, I have so things to discuss with you in private.
Co with to the study.”
“Okay,” Ye Fan nodded.
Li Zhaojun turned and headed toward the study, with Ye Fan quickly catching up, and they walked side by side.
They entered the study and closed the door.
“I also wanted to see you off, but since you don’t want anyone to, I won’t,” Li Zhaojun said facing Ye Fan.
“I won’t be in Hua Hai; you take care of yourself.
If the company encounters any issues, feel free to contact my mom.
She still has so influence in the business world,” Ye Fan said.
“Yes, I will,” Li Zhaojun replied, “You also be careful working as a civil servant in Mingde County.
Never let your guard down, lest people trap you.
Your new position as deputy politicommissar and director of the public security office may seem minor to the Ye family, but to ordinary people, it’s a coveted job.
Your sudden arrival filling this position might offend so.”
“My wife is thoughtful.
I will be careful,” Ye Fan nodded.
Then, Li Zhaojun stepped forward, nearly closing the distance between them, tipping her face up slightly, her soft lips parted and her beautiful eyes filled with emotion as she looked at Ye Fan.
Instantly understanding her, Ye Fan reached out to gently embrace Li Zhaojun’s slender waist and bent down to lightly kiss her lips.
However, the two of them dared not engage in a passionate kiss, so after a light peck, they separated.
