Wang Yaobei saw them off, and as he reached the door, he secretly asked Wu Yue if she had any yellow talismans for protection.
His expression was very eager. Let me make this clear first: he's a staunch materialist, but he's still a little afraid—afraid that his righteous spirit isn't strong enough, so he needs some external things to protect himself.
Wu Yue was about to tell him that she didn't have one when Yan Chiyu suddenly said calmly, "A protective talisman costs five hundred yuan."
It's a bit pricey.
Wang Yaobei gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, yes, yes!"
As he spoke, he immediately took out his phone to show the QR code for payment.
Yan Chiyu took out a piece of yellow paper with talismans drawn on it from his pocket and handed it to Wang Yaobei, his tone lazy and aloof: "Scan it for Wuyue."
Wu Yue: "???"
After getting into the car, Wu Yue reached out and poked Yan Chiyu's arm.
The boy tilted his head, his deep eyes falling on her slender, jade-white fingers. "Hmm?"
【Ah Wei, come out and face your death】
[OMG, so swoon-worthy! That voice, those eyes, they're making me cry with sweetness!]
[I hereby unilaterally acknowledge that Yanmei is my son-in-law! Go, daughter!]
"What do you mean? Why are you scanning my QR code to receive payments? It's your talisman."
"Keep this money and treat me to a meal next time." After saying that, the boy's lips curled up into a casual and lazy smile.
Wu Yue paused for a moment, then suddenly realized nothing was amiss and nodded, "Oh, okay."
Just as Uncle Min was about to drive off, the passenger door was suddenly opened, and a man got in.
At first, Wu Yue thought it was Chu Xiao in a different outfit, but upon closer inspection, she realized it was a strange man she had never seen before.
His clothes seemed to be a limited summer collection from some brand, exuding an air of wealth. He had a well-proportioned figure and handsome features.
The man turned his head and winked his rather pretty eyes at Yan Chiyu. "Mr. Yan, if you don't mind, could you give me a ride? I'm also going to Wucheng."
The girl lowered her eyes.
Does this man know Yan Chiyu?
The boy stared at him silently for two seconds, then uttered the word: "Get lost."
Uncle Min looked at the man beside him in surprise, then smiled and said, "Mr. Bao, what brings you here?"
"I heard that Young Master Yan has been taken to the police station, so I came to check it out out of curiosity. Haha." The colder Yan Chiyu's expression was, the more heartily the man laughed.
He naturally and familiarly turned to the side and extended his hand, "Wu Yue, right? My name is Bao Xinbao, and I've been a good friend of Young Master Yan for many years. You can call me by my nickname, Baozi, or Baobao~ Of course, I personally prefer the latter."
Before Wu Yue could even make a sound, Yan Chiyu coldly slapped away the man's outstretched hand, his tone very impatient: "How disgusting! Turn around."
"..."
Although Yan Chiyu looked disgusted, Wu Yue was absolutely certain that this was a true friend.
She smiled gently, "Okay, Mr. Bao." Since the other party could accurately state her name, he probably already knew about her beforehand. So she didn't offer any introduction.
Wu Yue moved back a little, getting closer to the car window.
Yan Chiyu noticed that the distance between him and Wu Yue had increased, and his expression darkened slightly. He glared at Bao Xinbao's back of the head with even more disdain and said coldly, "Uncle Min, drive."
So the four of them set off for Wucheng.
On the bus, Bao Xinbao chattered incessantly, a veritable chatterbox. Occasionally, Wu Yue would politely chime in with a few words. It was only after Yan Chiyu sternly ordered him to shut up that he sheepishly shut his mouth.
But he still muttered to himself, "When he asked me to save Shi Yimeng, he called her 'little baby,' and now he's telling me to get lost. Sigh, men, they're all heartless."
Wu Yue: "???"
Silently reaching up to clean his ears, he might have... heard something extraordinary.
