"Aunt Zhao, please thank Mr. Fan for me."
Lin Xiao took the warm cashmere blanket, unfolded it, and wrapped it around himself.
I definitely feel much better.
The blanket, still warm, retained a scent of roses.
Lin Xiao recalled the scene of Meng Fanxue sitting in the garden reading a book.
Aunt Zhao pursed her thin lips and said somewhat awkwardly, "Mr. Lin, you have done a great deed today, your merit is immeasurable. I thank you on behalf of that person's family."
As she spoke, Aunt Zhao bowed solemnly to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao helped her up, "Aunt Zhao, don't be so polite."
“I’m happy that I was able to save him.”
At this moment, the crowd erupted in cheers of surprise.
"He's alive! He's alive!"
"Very good!"
Good people deserve to live to be a hundred!
Sitting in her wheelchair, wearing a light gray wide-brimmed sun hat, Meng Fanxue watched intently as the medical staff treated the deliveryman.
My heart was pounding.
They didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Seeing that the person had finally come back to life, he breathed a huge sigh of relief.
It's good that you're alive.
It's good that you're alive.
At this moment, Meng Fanxue maneuvered her wheelchair and slowly withdrew from the crowd, arriving in front of Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao was numb.
If he could, he would like to fake fainting on the spot.
In this way, he wouldn't have to face such a complex and challenging situation.
No matter how chaotic his mind was, Lin Xiao's face remained cold and stern.
Anyone who didn't know better would think he was freezing.
Lin Xiao smiled and greeted Meng Fanxue.
"Mr. Fan, hello! I didn't expect to see you here."
This is the first time Lin Xiao and Meng Fanxue have met since their unpleasant parting last week.
But I never expected it to happen in such a setting.
Meng Fanxue witnessed the entire incident firsthand.
The moment she saw the delivery driver jump into the lake to save someone, she dialed the emergency number, just in case.
She watched helplessly as the deliveryman who was trying to save the man was pushed away by the long-haired woman, losing his last chance to survive. After struggling a few times, he sank to the bottom of the water. How angry and regretful she must have felt!
When she saw Lin Xiao jump into the water to save the man and lift him to the surface, bringing the deliveryman back to life, she felt so happy and relieved!
At this moment, her eyes were filled with admiration and approval as she looked at Lin Xiao.
"Yeah. I went back to the city to take care of some things. I just stopped by for a bit." Meng Fanxue had a faint smile on her lips, her voice carrying her usual lazy and magnetic quality.
"And you? What are you doing here?"
Meng Fanxue then noticed Chu Yingying and You Wanjun beside Lin Xiao and was taken aback.
The faint smile on her lips froze.
Lin Xiao's heart was dead.
He took a breath, laughed it off, and said, "I had a hot pot dinner at a friend's house tonight, and I'm stuffed. So, we came out to stretch our legs and digest our food!"
He deliberately obscured his relationship with Chu Yingying and You Wanjun.
Hopefully, this matter will be dropped.
Meng Fanxue raised her eyebrows slightly and nodded faintly, it was unclear whether she believed it or not.
His wise gaze swept over Chu Yingying and lingered on You Wanjun, who was wearing a mask and a hat.
You Wanjun had intended to hide quietly, but she never expected to run into Meng Fanxue here.
Even more unexpectedly, despite being so well covered up with only her eyes showing, her sharp eyes still recognized her.
Considering the business dealings between the You and Meng families, and the fact that Meng Fanxue was the only princess of the Meng family, You Wanjun dared not take the risk of offending Meng Fanxue.
She took off her mask, smiled sheepishly, and waved hello.
"No, Xiao Fan, you managed to recognize this? Your eyes are even sharper than Sun Wukong's Fiery Eyes!"
After confirming You Wanjun's identity, Meng Fanxue merely smiled faintly, a half-smile playing on her lips:
"Your eyes have both the roundness and liveliness of almond eyes and the upturned and alluring quality of fox eyes. They are rare to find in the whole of China."
Who doesn't like to hear nice things?
You Wanjun was pleased by Meng Fanxue's subtle flattery.
"Xiao Fan, your peach blossom eyes are round and lively, and they are very beautiful."
Meng Fanxue smiled faintly, then looked at Lin Xiao, "Lin Xiao also has peach blossom eyes!"
Lin Xiao was somewhat surprised that Meng Fanxue knew You Wanjun. When Meng Fanxue mentioned him, he forced a smile.
He didn't want to listen to them talk about eye shapes at this time.
He felt cold and damp all over, and was very uncomfortable.
If this continues, he's bound to catch a cold and get a fever.
It will affect his plans for the following week.
It's not worth it.
We can only postpone this service for now and make it up next time.
So Lin Xiao said, "President Fan, I'd like to go back and take a hot shower and change my clothes."
"Since you know each other, why don't you two start chatting?"
He's going to slip away now.
It was only at this moment that Chu Yingying and You Wanjun belatedly realized why Lin Xiao knew Meng Fanxue, the little princess of the Meng Group.
There is only one possibility.
That was Meng Fanxue in front of them; like them, she was Lin Xiao's client.
The two exchanged a glance, their eyes flashing with a complex and unfathomable expression.
Wow.
I didn't expect Lin Xiao to have such a wide range of businesses.
Even Meng Fanxue, the young princess of the group, is one of his clients!
Clearly, he was somewhat afraid of dealing with today's chaotic scene!
Indeed, none of the three of them are easy to mess with.
If things escalate, he'll likely find it difficult to salvage the situation.
If he offends anyone, he'll suffer the consequences.
As a poor college student with no money or power, he certainly didn't have the ability to go against any of them.
What was supposed to be a dramatic scene of a fishpond explosion turned into a moment of sympathy for the three ladies because Lin Xiao had just bravely rescued an unsung hero, and he was still wet.
They both instinctively suppressed the growing displeasure within them.
No one made the first move, thus maintaining at least some dignity and respect for Lin Xiao.
Meng Fanxue touched her wristwatch and smiled faintly, "I have something to do, so I'll be leaving now."
"Lin Xiao, are you going back to school? I can give you a ride."
Lin Xiao: "…………"
ah???
Isn't that enough?
Don't make this kind of deadly trip.
Just let him get lost, okay?
