"Jiaxin, let's go!" After sending Wang Yuyan away, Gu Fan smiled and called to Chen Jiaxin. As for Feng Bingbing, she was completely ignored by Gu Fan.
In Gu Fan's view, a beautiful woman wasn't just someone with a good face or figure. Someone like Feng Bingbing didn't count as a beauty in his eyes.
"Stop right there!" Feng Bingbing was angry and then directly showed her credentials, saying, "Donghai Special Task Force, did you engage in a magical duel earlier?"
Gu Fan was taken aback and said with a smile, "Jiaxin, wait for me here!"
Gu Fan glanced at Feng Bingbing and walked to the side.
Feng Bingbing looked at Chen Jiaxin and followed Gu Fan over.
Chen Jiaxin was lost in thought, watching Gu Fan walk away. She wrinkled her little nose slightly and said softly, "Hmph, you sure have a lot of secrets!"
"How should I address you?" After moving to a place where Chen Jiaxin couldn't hear, Gu Fan frowned and looked at Feng Bingbing.
"Special Task Force One-star Agent Feng Bingbing!" Feng Bingbing said solemnly, "Did you engage in a magical duel earlier?"
"You already know, why are you asking me? If you're going to say that even if I'm killed, I shouldn't use magic in a busy area, I have nothing to say. If you're not saying that, there's nothing to talk about!" Gu Fan waved his hand and said, "I have things to do, don't waste my time, okay?"
Gu Fan wasn't a rookie who knew nothing about this circle. On the contrary, his master had told him and even experienced many things in this circle. So although the Special Task Force was terrifying, Gu Fan hadn't broken any laws, so they couldn't do anything to him.
"What kind of attitude is this? As a cultivator, is it right to use magic in a busy area? Even if no one is hurt, once people see it, it will cause panic among ordinary people. You might feel good about doing as you please, but in the end, we'll have to deal with a bunch of trouble." Feng Bingbing said coldly.
"What does it matter to me if you have trouble?" Gu Fan said solemnly, "I'll say it again, my time is precious, I don't have time to chat with you!"
"Our people lost track of your opponent. He will definitely come back to find you." Feng Bingbing said solemnly.
"If he comes, I'll deal with him. Besides, no matter what level of agent you are, as long as I haven't broken any rules, please don't disturb my life, okay?" Gu Fan was very helpless. He was trying to be low-key, but he had already attracted the attention of the Special Task Force. Was this still low-key?
Gu Fan walked away gracefully, and Feng Bingbing didn't stop him.
She had no reason to stop him.
However, Feng Bingbing's impression of Gu Fan was very, very bad!
"You'd better not get into trouble!" Feng Bingbing was thinking about someone for the first time!
"Who was that woman?" After leaving the hospital and getting in the car to go back, Chen Jiaxin asked.
"Consider her a police officer! She came to ask about the attack we encountered earlier..." Gu Fan said casually.
"Oh! A police officer is a police officer, but how is she a police officer?" Chen Jiaxin blinked her eyes.
"She's a police officer who is much more powerful than a regular police officer, a special police officer. Do you understand now?" Gu Fan said with a smile.
"You can't talk to me properly!" Chen Jiaxin pouted.
"Knowing too much isn't good. Isn't it better this way? I'm your tutor, you're my student. According to our agreement, we will change things step by step. Other things are not important!" Gu Fan said softly.
"Tutor!" Chen Jiaxin muttered. A tutor like Gu Fan was probably one of a kind in the world.
After sending Chen Jiaxin home, it was already dark.
But Chen Wanqing hadn't returned yet.
"Is Chen Jie not coming back?" Gu Fan asked.
"On a business trip, how could she come back in one day? I'm used to it!" Chen Jiaxin threw herself onto the sofa and said lazily.
"Aren't you afraid to be alone at night?"
"Afraid of what? I'm not a child anymore. What are you thinking? Do you want to stay overnight? No way, you're off work. Go do what you need to do, and remember to come early in the morning!" Chen Jiaxin waved her hand, feeling a sense of control.
Today, especially in the afternoon, Chen Jiaxin felt like a puppet, seeing all sorts of things she had never seen before. It was novel, but also quite depressing, because she only understood a little and wasn't the main character.
Now, at home, Chen Jiaxin finally felt like the main character.
"Alright!" Gu Fan nodded. Since this was the norm, he didn't need to worry unnecessarily.
"By the way, why don't you have dinner before you leave?" Chen Jiaxin suddenly said.
"Are you asking me to cook again? Dream on!" Gu Fan saw through Chen Jiaxin's little trick.
"No, look, you have to eat dinner when you go back, right? Eating dinner costs money, right? And you're short on money, right? If you cook here, you have everything you need. You can eat your fill without spending money. Isn't that a good deal?" Chen Jiaxin said seriously.
"Actually, that's not a bad idea!" Gu Fan was tempted.
Now, he needed to save as much as possible. He only had the two hundred yuan Chen Wanqing gave him yesterday, which was all he had, and it was pitifully little.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's start!" Chen Jiaxin said quickly.
"But first, you have to clean up the dishes!" Gu Fan looked at the excited Chen Jiaxin and said seriously.
"Alright, alright, I'll clean up, I'll clean up, go cook!" Chen Jiaxin pushed Gu Fan towards the kitchen.

"Xiao Lan, thank you for your hard work today. Go home and rest early! I'll give you a day off tomorrow to relax!" Chen Wanqing's face showed signs of fatigue.
"Ms. Chen, what should we do next? They have no intention of cooperating at all. If this continues, we won't be able to hold on for long!" Zuo Xiaolan said worriedly.
"Even if we have to sell the club, I'll still have a way to live, right?" Chen Wanqing smiled and said, "There's always a way out. Don't worry!"
"Ms. Chen, can you really bear to do that?" Zuo Xiaolan couldn't smile.
Chen Wanqing sighed slightly.
From a small shop to a large club, Chen Wanqing had invested so much in the club that it was hard to measure.
It was like her child. Was she going to sell her child for money? Of course not.
"A simple face mask, such a simple face mask, has forced my club to this point. Sigh, Xiao Lan, help me set up a meeting with Wan Qiyun. Let's set it for tomorrow." Chen Wanqing rubbed her temples and said with a bitter smile.
"Ms. Chen, Wan Qiyun is..." Zuo Xiaolan was very anxious.
"What else can we do?" Chen Wanqing said with a bitter smile. "Others are launching new products, but we don't have any. Soon, our old customers will be taken away. Once we lose our customers, what's the difference between the club and closing down?"
Zuo Xiaolan was silent.
She knew that everything was orchestrated by Wan Qiyun, including the business trip where they refused to let Chen Wanqing's club use their face mask, which was probably arranged by Wan Qiyun.
Wan Qiyun wasn't after the club, but after Chen Wanqing herself!
And now, it seemed that Wan Qiyun was close to achieving his goal.
"Let's think of another way. Ms. Chen, don't take this step lightly. You know what kind of person Wan Qiyun is, right?" Zuo Xiaolan said anxiously.
Chen Wanqing smiled bitterly.
"Let's go home, Xiao Lan. We'll deal with tomorrow's issues tomorrow!" Chen Wanqing got out of the car.
"Goodbye, Ms. Chen!" Zuo Xiaolan bit her lip and drove away.
"What's going on?" Chen Wanqing opened the door with her key and saw Gu Fan carrying a plate to the dining table, while Chen Jiaxin was already at the table, seemingly ready.
"Chen Jie is back!" Gu Fan was surprised and gave Chen Jiaxin a look. What about the change they agreed on? Isn't this the perfect time to show it?
"Gu Fan's cooking is very good. I asked him to stay and cook for me. Since you're back, why don't you sit down and eat with us?" Chen Jiaxin didn't name anyone or look at Chen Wanqing, but her words made Chen Wanqing freeze.
When had Chen Jiaxin ever greeted her so proactively?
Although the greeting was awkward, it was enough for Chen Wanqing. She was instantly overwhelmed with happiness, and the fatigue from the club's troubles was swept away.
"Chen Jiaxin, can you be a bit more polite? Is this how you greet people?" Gu Fan was very dissatisfied. What kind of attitude was this? What about the cooperation they agreed on?
Chen Jiaxin glared at Gu Fan and said reluctantly, "Mom, it's time to eat!"
"Good, good!" Chen Wanqing trembled, tears streaming down her face. When she sat down, her hands were shaking.
Seeing Chen Wanqing so moved, Chen Jiaxin felt a mix of emotions. She opened her mouth to say something but couldn't get the words out. She could only focus on eating.
Soon, the delicious food distracted Chen Jiaxin.
Chen Wanqing watched Chen Jiaxin eating voraciously, her mouth slightly open in surprise.
Is this still my daughter? How could she change so much in just one day?
Could this all be because of Gu Fan...
Chen Wanqing looked at Gu Fan, who smiled shyly at her and said, "Chen Jie, see if these dishes suit your taste. I didn't know you were coming back, so I didn't make much. If you don't hurry, there won't be anything left!"
Seeing Chen Jiaxin eating with great enthusiasm, Chen Wanqing seemed to understand what Gu Fan meant and smiled.
Chen Wanqing hadn't had time to change out of her work clothes. Her genuine smile was caught by Gu Fan.
In that moment, Gu Fan felt as if he had been struck by lightning, seemingly understanding for the first time that a woman could possess such breathtaking beauty!
Of course, Gu Fan concealed his reaction well, avoiding any awkwardness or embarrassment.
However, seeing Chen Wanqing smiling and enjoying the dishes, and occasionally looking at Chen Jiaxin, Gu Fan felt a sense of accomplishment... Changing a family, this should be a great deed, right!
