Chapter 917 ·Touching the Reverse Scale

"I don't care if you're some rich person or boss, and I don't care what your previous intentions were in getting close to Wan'er."

"I'll tell you this straight: your current opponents or enemies have already nearly affected Wan'er and caused her harm... I won't allow anyone to hurt my sister."

"For our entire family, nothing is more important than Wan'er's safety."

"Do you understand?"

Chen Fan remained silent for two seconds, then slowly nodded.

"I understand."

"Good. I like dealing with people who speak straightforwardly."

Chen You'an's impression of Chen Fan seemed to improve slightly.

"The car accident this afternoon, Wan'er thinks she handled it perfectly, but anyone who really wants to investigate can still find traces."

"I'll help you resolve this matter, ensuring no issues remain."

"Also, tonight's incident is related to that Young Master Wu, you should know what I mean."

The message was very clear.

For Wan'er's sake, Chen You'an would help Chen Fan deal with the aftermath of the afternoon's car accident.

As for Chen Fan's personal grudge with Wu Xukun, he wouldn't interfere or get involved.

Chen Fan nodded: "Thank you."

"No need to thank me. You just need to remember what you promised me."

Chen You'an waved his hand, casually threw his cigarette on the ground and stepped on it, then turned to get in his car.

Before leaving, he lowered the window and looked at Chen Fan.

"The capital is different from other cities. Sometimes money isn't omnipotent, so it's better if you visit less often in the future."

After speaking, he stepped on the gas, the SUV roared as it spun in place, leaving a dark tire mark on the ground, then shot away like an arrow.

Watching the direction where he left, Chen Fan didn't go upstairs immediately.

Instead, he felt his pocket and took out a crumpled cigarette pack with just one left.

Chen Fan lit the cigarette, standing in the darkness, the lit cigarette tip brightening and dimming, reflecting his serious expression.

Through tonight's incident, he could determine that Wan'er's background was probably even more powerful than he had imagined.

They could actually send active-duty soldiers rushing into the restaurant to rescue people, and seemingly didn't care about the consequences afterward.

Wan'er's brother, though young, was already a Major.

In the capital, and in an active combat unit no less.

It was easy to guess their background.

It could only be that mysterious unit guarding the capital.

The fact that such an important task could be entrusted to Chen You'an was enough to prove the Nalan family's influence in the capital.

Chen Fan wasn't angry about Chen You'an's warning earlier. Rather, he understood.

After all, if it were his own sister, he would probably do the same.

What he was thinking about now was Wu Xukun.

This guy had caused trouble for Chen Fan multiple times.

Today he even tried to kidnap Su Ruochu.

This had touched Chen Fan's reverse scale.

This person...

Must be dealt with.

His eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of killing intent flashing in Chen Fan's gaze.

Chen Fan didn't consider himself a good person.

But he definitely wasn't an absolutely evil person either.

Since his rebirth, Chen Fan had his own set of principles for conducting himself.

Follow my principles, and we can compete fairly.

Touch my reverse scale, then I apologize in advance.

Chen Fan didn't mind using some less than honorable methods to resolve problems.

He took out his phone and called Feng Pojun.

By this time, Feng Pojun had already arrived in Chuanshu, leading people to inspect the newly built elementary school.

When the call connected, Chen Fan didn't waste words, directly ordering: "Arrange for 4 more bodyguards to come to the capital."

"Choose them yourself, get the strongest ones."

"Not for me, they're to protect Ruochu."

Su Ruochu would graduate in a few days, and during this time, Chen Fan would not allow any accidents to happen.

"When they arrive in the capital, have them contact Xiao Chen and the others, split into two groups of 3 for 24-hour covert protection."

After hanging up with Feng Pojun, Chen Fan thought for a moment, then found another number in his phone and dialed it.

The phone rang several times before connecting.

Chen Fan spoke first: "I want all of Wu Xukun's information. As detailed as possible."

"This is what you promised me before."

A woman's cool voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Tomorrow I'll give it to you."

"Good."

Chen Fan hung up, neither of them had exchanged a single unnecessary word.

He extinguished his cigarette and went upstairs.

That night Chen Fan tried to discuss with Su Ruochu about leaving early with him to return to Yunhai since she was about to graduate anyway, they could come back on graduation day to pack up.

Of course, Su Ruochu refused.

Su Ruochu gave very sufficient reasons: first, she rarely went out, and it was very safe inside the school, so Chen Fan didn't need to worry.

Second, with graduation approaching, there were many things to do. Besides organizing her thesis, she also needed to assist the professor in completing a survey report that was reaching its final stage...

Chen Fan gently held Su Ruochu in his arms.

"I just worry about you, I really don't want anything to happen to you."

Su Ruochu lay sideways against Chen Fan's chest, speaking softly: "I know."

"I know you care about me the most. But you can't always treat me like a child."

"I'll be careful, and call you first thing if I encounter any danger, okay?"

"Come on, cheer up."

As she spoke, Su Ruochu lifted her head and gave Chen Fan a light kiss on the cheek.

"Just wait a little longer, about 10 more days. Wait until I graduate and return to Yunhai, then I'll accompany you every day, okay?"

Looking at the beautiful face so close to him, Chen Fan smiled slightly.

"For this day, I've already waited what feels like a lifetime."

"Promise me. After graduation, once you find a job, we'll prepare for marriage, okay?"

Seemingly infected by Chen Fan's emotions, Su Ruochu gently stretched out her arms and hugged Chen Fan.

"Okay."

...

The next afternoon, just as Chen Fan entered the company, he was stopped at the entrance by a strange man.

"Mr. Chen?"

Chen Fan stepped back, looking at the other person warily.

The man took out a document envelope from his chest.

"This is the information you requested."

Chen Fan didn't reach out to take it.

The man continued: "Miss Bai asked me to deliver this to you."

Hearing this, Chen Fan then reached out to take it.

His gaze swept over the man, casually saying:

"This Miss Bai of yours has quite some influence, actually able to track my whereabouts at any time."

The man didn't respond, but nodded to Chen Fan, quickly turned and got on a motorcycle parked by the roadside, then drove away.

Watching him leave, Chen Fan then turned to go upstairs.

Back in his office, Chen Fan tore open the envelope and took out a thick stack of documents.

Bai Ruoxue indeed had some capabilities.

The information sent about Wu Xukun was sufficiently detailed, even including this guy's personal records from when he was in school.

It showed just how far-reaching this Miss Bai's methods were.

This actually made Chen Fan a bit more curious about this mysterious Miss Bai.
