The Beauties Help Me Become the No.1 Official

Chapter 33: Chapter 33: House Robbed

In the endless darkness, the ringing of the telephone made Lin Fan open his eyes and removed his hand from between Chang Wanyun’s curled-up legs. The moment he felt the phone, his sleepiness vanished because the name displayed on the caller ID was unexpectedly Zhu Zhixuan.

Many years ago, they had exchanged phone numbers and added each other on WeChat, but they had never chatted from beginning to end, nor had they ever called each other. Only occasionally, during the middle of the night, would he look up her WeChat from his contacts and glance at her Moments.

After yesterday’s incident, their relationship could be said to have gotten closer, especially during the moment she lay on top of him, protecting him—Lin Fan had felt warmth in his heart. But if one were to say they had grown distant, that was also true, considering he had sent her husband to prison. Even if she didn’t hate him, her in-laws and her own family certainly would.

After pondering for a while, Lin Fan still pressed the answer button; he wanted to know why Zhu Zhixuan was contacting him at this time.

"Is this Lin Fan?"

On the phone, Zhu Zhixuan’s voice carried a hint of timidity, this being the first time she had ever called Lin Fan.

"Yes, it’s me. Is something the matter?"

Lin Fan wondered if she was about to plead on behalf of Cai Xuliang.

"Your house has had an incident... Early this morning, several construction vehicles came and bulldozed your house to the ground!"

Hearing this, Lin Fan was stunned. Destroying someone’s property in broad daylight was incredibly bold, and the only explanation he could think of was retaliation from the Cai Family, despite Cai Kui and Cai Xuliang being incarcerated; there were still many of the Cai Family members left in the village. Yet, this act of revenge was excessively harsh.

"Was it the Cai Family who did it?"

"No, since Cai Kui and Cai Xuliang were arrested yesterday, the elders of the Cai Family have been panicking. It’s said that even the head of the town office has been suspended and is under investigation. They wouldn’t dare provoke you now, and the main culprits are all locked up; the old Cai Family couldn’t kick up such a fuss."

Being the daughter-in-law of the Cai Family, Zhu Zhixuan still managed to catch some rumors, so it was not the Cai Family’s doing.

"Okay, I got it. I’ll come back and take a look later."

Lin Fan squinted his eyes and paused before continuing, "About yesterday, I still owe you a thank you for protecting me like that."

"I was the one who wronged you first... If it wasn’t for my parents, I wouldn’t have... Ah, let’s just let bygones be bygones."

Zhu Zhixuan sighed. Only the two of them knew how they had lived after parting ways in college.

"Alright, I’ll head back to the village soon."

Lin Fan hung up the phone, while Chang Wanyun, who had already woken up, rested her head on Lin Fan’s shoulder, a mischievous smile on her lips, "That was Zhu Zhixuan on the phone, wasn’t it? Now that Cai Xuliang is locked up, you two might have a chance to rekindle the past."

"Look who thinks they know so much."

Lin Fan laughed and pinched Chang Wanyun’s cheek. Although he had previously threatened to sleep with Cai Xuliang’s wife, thinking of how desperately Zhu Zhixuan had protected him made him feel somewhat remorseful; after all, she was innocent.

"Of course, Zhixuan has suffered a lot over the years. Five years into her marriage and still no child. The old Cai Family has been pointing fingers, calling her a sterile hen. It looked like she married into a good family, but she was living a life worse than death. But now, with Cai Xuliang out of the way and you doting on her, she’s bound to be blissfully happy."

Wanyun rested her head on Lin Fan’s shoulder, intoxicated by the sound of his heartbeat.

"Are you happy then?"

Lin Fan smiled as he wrapped his arms around her waist. With no clothes in the way, his hands could freely knead any spot he desired to touch.

"Happy, of course I’m happy. I always thought that getting married and having kids was happiness. But yesterday, when you took me shopping, I realized how good it feels to be pampered. At that moment, I thought if I had known happiness felt like this, I never would have married Zhuzi. Even if I didn’t meet you, I would have found someone who could pamper me."

Wanyun’s cheeks flushed red, feeling as if she were experiencing the awakening of love for the first time.

"It’s not too late now, I’ll pamper you well in the future."

Lin Fan pinched Wanyun’s chin, capturing her thin lips in his mouth, his arms wrapping around her waist. Wanyun responded by twisting her waist, her hands wildly scratching at his back. Her soft murmurs called him to advance, and as her pleas turned to begging, Lin Fan finally, with satisfaction, lifted her entire body off the soft bed, holding her peachy bottom while her arms tightly encircled his neck. The unique thrill elicited her screams that echoed around the room.

Until the nourishment spilled once again deep into that peach in the early morning, Lin Fan lay exhausted on the equally breathless Wanyun. Exercising in the morning was so wonderful.

"You little scoundrel, instead of rushing back to see who has dismantled your house, you just keep teasing me."

Wanyun held Lin Fan’s neck tightly, feeling the depressing dominance of his masculinity. Each time she was with him, it felt dizzyingly unreal, indescribable yet utterly inescapable.

"I already have a guess who it might be, so no need to hurry."

Lin Fan’s smile carried a knowing air, certain that if it wasn’t the Cai Family causing trouble, it had to have been Xue Changchun. Having refused his money, he evidently prepared another ’gift.’

"Alright then, today is my first official day at work, so I won’t be able to keep you company. The job here works on a one day on, one day off basis, but I’ll talk to my family about working one on, three off, so I can spend more time with you. The store manager even arranged a single dorm for me, which is perfect for looking after my son who’s studying in town." noveldrama

Despite her legs still feeling weak, Wanyun managed to get up. This job was a godsend to her, a monthly salary of several thousands was a hundred times better than farming back home, so she treasured it deeply.

After the exhausting activities, Lin Fan naturally went back to sleep for a bit longer, only to leisurely rise later. After washing up, he took the elevator downstairs and walked to the small eatery across the street, casually ordering some breakfast. Right as he was all set to eat his fill and head back to the village, a curvaceous young woman walked into the shop.

She wore a white dress and had a face with lips as red as her teeth were white, exuding an ethereal fairy-like air. Lin Fan hadn’t expected Lotus Town to have such a beauty, and she sat at the table opposite him, burying her head to eat the noodles she had ordered.

While Lin Fan occasionally stole glances at this town’s rarely seen beauty, a sudden crisp sound caught his attention. Instinctively looking down, he saw a thumb-sized pink object that had fallen from the glamorous lady’s skirt onto the floor, its whirring sound leaving him stunned, as was the lady when their eyes met.

However, within the next second, the embarrassed beauty quickly bent down to pick it up and fled the breakfast shop as if running for her life.

"Hey, you haven’t paid yet!"

The owner, clueless about what had occurred, hastily chased after her, but the woman didn’t even turn back as she hurriedly walked away, clicking her high heels.

"Don’t worry, owner, I’ve paid for her."

Lin Fan smiled and waved his hand, thinking that covering the bowl of noodles was the least he could do after witnessing such a private incident.
