Chen Jiaxin was still quite stubborn at heart.
This stubbornness could be seen in her relationship with Chen Wanqing.
Therefore, Gu Fan's lack of cooperation, and even his teasing, although it hurt Chen Jiaxin, did not make her give up at all. Instead, it made her even more curious, which in turn increased her motivation to explore.
Thus, various questions kept popping up, and she asked them all the way.
However, Gu Fan decided to use his mysteriousness and Chen Jiaxin's curiosity to control her, so he naturally did not say anything.
So when the car arrived at the academic community, Chen Jiaxin's little mouth was pouting so much that it could have held an oil bottle.
"Hey, isn't this where Sister Lele lives?" Chen Jiaxin got out of the car and looked at Gu Fan in surprise.
"You've been here before?" Gu Fan was also surprised. It seemed that Chen Jiaxin and Huang Lele had a good relationship. No wonder Sister Chen took Huang Lele's recommendation so seriously.
"Of course I've been here!" Chen Jiaxin pointed at Gu Fan in surprise and said, "You don't, you don't live with Sister Lele, do you?"
"You guessed right, but there's no reward!" Gu Fan snapped his fingers, then stopped, turned around, and looked at the group of people getting out of the car, saying, "Wait in the car!"
The black suits, black sunglasses, and tall, strong figures were too conspicuous.
This did not fit Gu Fan's low-key personality.
Actually, if it weren't for dealing with Chen Jiaxin's various strange questions and forgetting to tell them to park outside the community, he would never have let them drive all the way to the building.
"Mr. Gu!" One of the men in black sunglasses was hesitant.
"I don't care what Mr. Wang told you. If you follow me, you listen to me," Gu Fan said sternly.
"Alright, Mr. Gu!" The man in black sunglasses said helplessly, then waved his hand, and everyone got back in the car to wait.
"They look like a gang!" Chen Jiaxin said softly as she and Gu Fan entered the stairwell.
"Wrong, they are bodyguards, a legitimate profession," Gu Fan said with a smile. "Don't rich people like you enjoy having bodyguards around?"
"I'm not rich, and neither is my mom. They are the truly rich. The Wang Group is a huge corporation, very wealthy!" Chen Jiaxin said with a pout.
"You guessed it?" Gu Fan was very surprised.
"Is it that hard to guess? Or do you not care about Donghai news?" Anyone who paid a little attention to Donghai news would easily recognize Old Man Wang and Wang Chenglong. And Chen Jiaxin had also paid attention to this.
"I don't go online!" Gu Fan only got a computer yesterday, so he hadn't paid attention to these things.
"Don't you have a phone? The iPhone 6S just came out. Want me to give you one?" Chen Jiaxin blinked her eyes.
"No!" Gu Fan shook his head.
"No?" Chen Jiaxin was surprised.
"From your expression, I can tell you wouldn't give it to me for free. I don't know what price I'd have to pay, so I definitely don't want it," Gu Fan shook his head and said.
"You... if you don't want it, fine! Do you think I want to give it to you? Humph!" Chen Jiaxin was helpless. This Gu Fan, it seemed he knew all her thoughts. Whenever she interacted with Gu Fan, she never felt in control.
Even when she kept winning Gu Fan at the arcade, it was only because the game could only be played once. Fundamentally, this didn't count as Chen Jiaxin winning, but rather Chen Jiaxin avoiding Gu Fan...
Chen Jiaxin, though she hid her talent, was still very proud at heart. Now, this pride had been completely shattered by Gu Fan.
In front of Gu Fan, Chen Jiaxin found it hard to be proud.
Back home, Gu Fan opened his room.
"Hey, this is a boy's room, you can't just barge in!" Gu Fan blocked Chen Jiaxin, who was really annoying, following him everywhere. Chen Jiaxin had the potential to be a clingy person.
"You also entered my room!" Chen Jiaxin said, "I feel like I'm at a disadvantage, so I have to see it. Ha, I know, is your room like a pigsty? I want to see, I want to see!"
Chen Jiaxin bent down and slipped past from the side.
Gu Fan was speechless, suddenly thinking of Chu Xiaowei. He had seen her naked and had also proposed that she see him in return.
This seemed to have a similar effect to what Chen Jiaxin had just said.
Unfortunately, Chu Xiaowei didn't insist. If she had, Gu Fan wouldn't have minded showing off his charming body!
"Are you disappointed?" Gu Fan went straight to his suitcase and took out a small medicine box.
"Not like a pigsty! I didn't expect you to be so tidy... no wonder you didn't want the phone I offered. You have a computer!" Chen Jiaxin was indeed a bit surprised. Boys' rooms were supposed to be messy, but this legend didn't seem to apply here.
"It's someone else's, I'm just borrowing it! Let's go, someone is waiting for me to save them!" Gu Fan wanted to get the jade piece as soon as possible. Only with the jade piece in hand could he truly feel at ease.
"Who taught you medicine?" Chen Jiaxin asked.
"Can't you stop asking?" Gu Fan was helpless. Chen Jiaxin's questions were really numerous.
"Answer me, and I promise this will be the only question today!" Chen Jiaxin was looking for a breakthrough.
"Then keep asking!" Gu Fan shrugged and quickly left the room.
"Annoying!" Chen Jiaxin stomped her foot and said, "So annoying!"
"What is this?" In the car, Chen Jiaxin tried hard to control her curiosity and not to be too eager, but she couldn't resist.
"I won't tell you!" Gu Fan said sternly, inwardly laughing. He wondered if Chen Jiaxin would get angry.
"Brother Gu!" Chen Jiaxin's voice immediately softened, and she wrapped her arms around Gu Fan's arm, gently shaking it.
Chen Jiaxin really wanted to slap herself. She knew Gu Fan preferred softness over hardness and should have changed her attitude earlier.
"Medicine box!" Gu Fan felt a bit cheap, but with such a beautiful girl so close, it was hard to refuse.
"What's inside, Brother Gu?" Chen Jiaxin was secretly delighted and asked.
Gu Fan looked out the window and didn't answer.
Chen Jiaxin was helpless, bit her lip, and increased the force of her shaking.
Gu Fan opened his mouth, ready to tell Chen Jiaxin something.
As long as it didn't involve principles, it was fine to talk a bit and satisfy her curiosity.
But at that moment, a chill ran down his spine.
Without thinking, Gu Fan immediately hugged Chen Jiaxin and lay down!
Chen Jiaxin was waiting for Gu Fan's answer and didn't expect him to suddenly move so quickly, hugging her and pressing her down... Who did he think she was? You, Gu Fan, get off!
But as Chen Jiaxin struggled, she suddenly heard a series of sounds. The car windows shattered, and there was an emergency brake.
"Protect Mr. Gu!" someone shouted.
Chen Jiaxin vaguely understood something, and her face turned pale.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here. Stay down!" Gu Fan softly comforted Chen Jiaxin while observing the situation.
Without realizing it, the three cars had left the main road and entered a small, tree-lined path, where there were no pedestrians.
In front of and behind the cars, there were two people each, holding silenced pistols, shooting wildly at Wang Chenglong's bodyguards.
When Gu Fan looked, he saw that, except for his driver, the bodyguards in the front and back cars had all fallen in pools of blood.
"Mr. Gu!" Gu Fan's driver called out anxiously, "Hold on, I'll drive through!"
"No, just stay down. I'll handle it!" Gu Fan's face was grim. These people were completely inhumane, daring to use guns in broad daylight. How lawless could they be!
Under the incredulous gaze of Chen Jiaxin and the driver, Gu Fan got out of the car.
Immediately, four guns were aimed at him.
Gu Fan frowned slightly, not looking at the four masked assailants, but at the bodyguards in the front and back cars... He sensed that they still had a pulse! They could still be saved!
There was no time to waste!
The four gunmen had the same thought.
They decisively pulled the triggers.
But to their shock, Gu Fan's figure suddenly distorted, and the bullets, which were flying at high speed, were dodged!
Could a person be faster than a bullet?
The four gunmen were stunned!
Then, all four felt a pain in their wrists, and their guns fell to the ground. They then felt a powerful force, and their heads went black as they lost consciousness.
All of this happened in an extremely short time.
"Tell your boss to clean up the mess!" Gu Fan shouted to the driver, then quickly rushed to the back car.
All four people inside were shot.
Two were shot in the abdomen, bleeding profusely, a sight that was shocking.
Gu Fan quickly reached out and touched the wounds on their abdomens. With just one touch, the bleeding slowed and eventually stopped completely.
These two were only suffering from excessive blood loss and were not in critical condition. The other two, however, were on the brink of death. Gu Fan did not hesitate and acted quickly.
After dealing with the people in the back car, Gu Fan moved to the front car.
What made Gu Fan frown was that one of the four people in the front car had already lost his pulse in the short time.
"Since they are in danger because of me, how can I not help?" Gu Fan took a deep breath, and his spiritual energy burst forth, enveloping the bodyguard who had lost his pulse. The strange spiritual energy of the Immortal Doctor forcefully brought the bodyguard back to life. A faint pulse appeared.
Reviving the dead!
This was reviving the dead!
But it was clear that doing so was also very draining for Gu Fan. Sweat appeared on his forehead.
After the person's condition stabilized, Gu Fan immediately stabilized the lives of the other three. Only then did he let out a long breath.
But just as Gu Fan was about to relax, a cold chill suddenly rushed up from his feet...
