Chen Hengzhi looked at Ye Fanxing, then at Huo Dongfang.

"Oh, so you're uncle and nephew. I thought you were engaged. I almost made a fool of myself."

When Huo Dongfang revealed his identity, Ye Fanxing understood that Huo Dongfang was currently only focused on upholding the bottom line between uncle and nephew.

She understood even more how difficult it would be for her to complete the task.

Huo Dongfang said politely yet distantly, "Thank you for your help last night."

Chen Hengzhi smiled and pushed up his glasses, praising, "It's Ye Fanxing's cleverness, courage, and meticulousness that made this possible. It was just a small favor, nothing to mention."

"Like father, like daughter." A touch of nostalgia appeared in Huo Dongfang's eyes. "Her father was also an outstanding soldier."

Chen Hengzhi had suspected from the beginning that Huo Dongfang and Ye Fanxing were people in the military.

It wasn't until Huo Dongfang said this that they were certain.

A sense of goodwill arose in her heart.

"It is fate that we met. If you need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

Ye Fanxing was once a dazzling dancer on stage, and she could tell what was in Chen Hengzhi's eyes right now.

For example, at this moment, Chen Hengzhi's eyes were filled with admiration and amazement.

"Thank you, Professor Chen." Ye Fanxing changed the subject and complimented, "A man as outstanding as Professor Chen must also have an excellent soulmate?"

Chen Hengzhi scratched his head, looking embarrassed, and said, "I'm still single. What about Mr. Huo?"

“Uncle Huo has a fiancée,” Ye Fanxing answered first.

Chen Hengzhi did not connect Ye Fanxing with Huo Dongfang's fiancée.

"A man as handsome as Mr. Huo must have an outstanding fiancée."

Ye Fanxing felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

Seeing Ye Fanxing's shy expression, Huo Dongfang suppressed a smile and said, "She is indeed very outstanding."

As Ye Fanxing wiped her lips with a handkerchief to hide her embarrassment, Zhan Beiwang's car pulled up to the side of the road.

Zhan Beiwang jumped out of the car and walked up to Huo Dongfang and Ye Fanxing.

"Old Huo, the guesthouse at Shanghai University isn't safe. I'll come and take you to my place."

Huo Dongfang paid for breakfast and politely said goodbye to Chen Hengzhi.

Originally, Huo Dongfang did not want to trouble Zhan Beiwang.

But what happened last night still left Huo Dongfang with lingering fears.

The guesthouse at Shanghai University is frequented by a diverse group of people; it's hard to guarantee that we won't encounter something like what happened last night again.

Moreover, Ye Fanxing was frightened, and a change of environment might make her feel much better.

The two packed their luggage and got into Zhan Beiwang's car.

Chen Hengzhi stood by the roadside, watching the truck disappear before his eyes.

For the first twenty years of his life, he had never been moved by anything.

But when he saw Ye Fanxing so brave and fearless last night, Chen Hengzhi was moved.

He reached out and gently touched his heart, silently thinking: It's okay.

This is only a temporary separation.

When Ye Fanxing starts studying at Shanghai University, they will have more time to spend together.

There is ample time!

Ye Fanxing glanced at Chen Hengzhi in the rearview mirror, but only saw Chen Hengzhi's back.

She thought that perhaps she was being too sensitive.

There's no such thing as love at first sight in this world.

Ye Fanxing put the matter out of her mind and glanced at Huo Dongfang out of the corner of her eye.

Huo Dongfang didn't have the typical pretty boy look of the male dancers in the dance troupe; he was very masculine and domineering.

The sunlight bathed his fair skin, turning it a bronze color.

Sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes.

Broad shoulders and narrow waist.

It has abs and a defined waistline.

As Ye Fanxing watched the scenery flash by outside the car window, she couldn't help but wonder if the original author of the novel had a grudge against Huo Dongfang, and that's why he deliberately made Huo Dongfang suffer so much and feel so wronged.

Zhan Beiwang's residence was heavily guarded and extremely safe.

As soon as he got home last night, he had two rooms prepared for Huo Dongfang and Ye Fanxing.

Originally, Zhan Beiwang wanted to set up a room.

He then thought that, given Huo Dongfang's personality, without anyone's help, Huo Dongfang would probably still just be a saint.

However, if only one room is prepared, Huo Dongfang estimates that he would rather sleep on the floor in the living room than share a room with Ye Fanxing.

"Old Huo, Xingxing, sit down."

Zhan Beiwang is straightforward and magnanimous.

“The stars were frightened last night, so it’s not safe for them to stay outside. It’s safe here.”

“Old Huo, you’ve come all this way to Shanghai, so you can take Xingxing to get familiar with the area.”

Zhan Beiwang handed a bunch of keys to Huo Dongfang.

"Make yourself at home here, don't feel awkward, I'm going to work now."

Huo Dongfang took the keys and thanked him warmly.

Thanks.

Zhan Beiwang sneered, "We're brothers who share the same pair of open-crotch pants, no need to thank me, let's go."

After Huo Dongfang and Ye Fanxing put away their luggage, Huo Dongfang took Ye Fanxing to explore Shanghai.

Huo Dongfang had been to Shanghai before, but he wasn't very familiar with the city.

After buying a map at the newsstand, he first took Ye Fanxing to the famous City God Temple in Shanghai.

To everyone's surprise, when they arrived at the City God Temple, they found that it was closed to the public for renovations.

"Xingxing, it seems that you'll be the only ones coming to this temple fair with your college classmates from now on."

Ye Fanxing had also heard that the City God Temple in Shanghai was very efficacious.

On her way there, she was thinking that if she got to the City God Temple, she would definitely ask Guanyin Bodhisattva to help her so that Huo Dongfang could get better soon.

The two went to a nearby used bookstore.

"Uncle Huo, I'd like to find some books."

Huo Dongfang said gently, "Okay, take your time looking."

The secondhand bookstore had many different books, and Ye Fanxing was looking for medical books.
