A cute little girl appeared at the door and respectfully greeted Ye Fan. "Uncle Ye."
Ye Fan blinked at the little girl. "You look a little familiar."
"My name is Tang Nuan!"
"Oh, I remember now. You're Xiao Qiang's girlfriend!"
Qian Yu was speechless. Sounds like a cockroach's girlfriend.
"I'm not Xiao Qiang's girlfriend. I'm his classmate," Tang Nuan said.
Ye Fan smiled faintly. "You're his classmate now. Later, you'll be his girlfriend."
Qian Yu was speechless. This Ye Fan is going too far, teasing a little schoolgirl like that.
"Want some milk?" Ye Fan asked.
Tang Nuan shook her head. "No. I'm here on serious business."
"What serious business?"
"I want to ask you to save Xiao Qiang!"
Ye Fan frowned. "Did something happen to that little piglet?" He hadn't heard anything! But that wasn't surprising. Wu Sihan had always considered him a good-for-nothing who neglected his proper duties. Even if something had happened to Xiao Qiang, he wouldn't think of turning to him.
"He's been kidnapped. They're telling everyone he's sick," Tang Nuan said.
Qian Yu nervously gripped his milk glass. Damn it, did I just hear something I wasn't supposed to? The Wu Family's eldest grandson was kidnapped? Who would dare do that?
"Why did you come to me?" Ye Fan asked.
"Because I know you're someone with real abilities, Uncle. The day before yesterday, a car ran a red light and hit me. At the time, I felt a ball of light wrap around me and send me into the grass by the roadside. Afterward, the doctors examined me and found nothing wrong."
"The driver said he hadn't hit me, and my parents thought I'd just gotten scared and fallen into the grass. I know it was that talisman that protected me. After the accident, the Peace Talisman turned to ash. But my parents don't believe me. They think I remembered it wrong."
Qian Yu's heart pounded as he listened. The Peace Talisman can even do that? I gave all the talismans I got from Jiang Hailin to the Song Family. What a huge loss!
Ye Fan said regretfully, "The Peace Talismans I drew before were too low-grade. Once I can draw more powerful ones, you won't be the one sent flying. Their car will."
Qian Yu was speechless.
Ye Fan sighed. "This is bad!"
Qian Yu asked nervously, "Young Master Ye, is something wrong?"
Ye Fan looked rather gloomy. "I promised to make Xiao Qiang a protective Jade Pendant, but I forgot these past few days, and now he's in trouble. That little brat is going to blame me."
"No one could have predicted this," Qian Yu said soothingly.
"That's right! His dad bears most of the blame. I gave that little brat two Peace Talismans. Who told his dad to oppose feudal superstition and throw them in the trash? Who else can he blame?" Ye Fan said sullenly.
Qian Yu was speechless. The Wu Family's eldest young master really knows how to waste precious things!
"Do you have anything he kept close to him?" Ye Fan asked Tang Nuan.
Tang Nuan thought for a moment, then took out a stack of comic books. "Xiao Qiang was afraid his dad would scold him for not trying to better himself, so he left all his comics with me. Will these work?"
Ye Fan was speechless. A little brat is still a little brat. All he aspires to is reading comics. "They'll work. Which one is his favorite?"
"Ultraman!"
Ye Fan was speechless. That kid's taste is awful!
Ye Fan took out a sheet of Talisman Paper. It landed on the comic book and turned into a paper figure, which pointed in a particular direction.
Watching from the side, Qian Yu was dumbstruck.
Ye Fan stood up. "All set. Ah! Oh no!"
Qian Yu looked at Ye Fan. "Young Master Ye, is there a problem?"
"I just remembered. My car's out of gas! I forgot to fill it up yesterday!"
Qian Yu paused. "If you don't mind, I can drive you there."
Ye Fan tilted his head and gave Qian Yu a couple of glances. "That'd be great! It won't be too much trouble, will it?"
"Not at all. It's my honor," Qian Yu hurriedly said, eager to help.
Ye Fan got into Qian Yu's car with the comic book and the little paper figure. Tang Nuan eagerly followed him in.
Qian Yu drove in the direction the little paper figure pointed, his heart pounding. What on earth is going on with this paper figure? Am I really not dreaming? Is this some kind of magic trick?
