Xu Fan, after studying the two pieces of loot thoroughly, finally went to sleep.
It wasn't until noon the next day that he woke up.
Getting out of bed, he called out Igarashi and Asao Mai.
Since a large group of the Heavenly Witch Sect had flooded into Ancient Nara, this wasn't a place to stay for long.
After checking out, Xu Fan, along with Igarashi and Asao Mai, left the hotel and drove to Asao Mai's rented house.
"By the way, Xu Fan, who's taking care of the kids now?"
As they were driving home, it dawned on Asao Mai about the little girls at her place.
Xu Fan wasn't around, so who was looking after them?
"Don't worry, they are definitely being well taken care of."
Understanding Asao Mai's affection for the little ones, Xu Fan assured her.
Before leaving, he had made arrangements with Yoshida Shun.
Given his cowardly nature, he was bound to handle Xu Fan's instructions obediently.
In a swift drive, the three reached their destination.
Getting out of the car, Asao Mai quickly went ahead towards her house, not waiting for Xu Fan.
Even though Xu Fan gave her a sense of security, he was, after all, a man.
Having a man arrange childcare made her a bit uneasy.
Hurrying to her doorstep, Asao Mai started knocking on the door.
"Coming! Coming!"
Shouting the names of the little girls, soon a man's voice was heard from inside.
In no time, the door swung open.
"This..."
Seeing Yoshida Shun emerge from inside, Asao Mai was stunned.
Was this guy hiding in her house just to scare her?
The once ruthless thug from Ancient Nara was now dressed as a middle-aged woman?
The sight before her was rather disgusting, and Asao Mai's eyes unreservedly showed disdain.
"As expected, a pervert..."
"I..."
Holding a baby bottle, Yoshida Shun was almost on the verge of tears.
Was it easy for him?
Did people really think he wanted to dress up like this? He was forced by these little girls!
"Boss, you finally came back. If you hadn't, I would've died here!"
Seeing Xu Fan coming over, Yoshida Shun, full of grievances, lunged at Xu Fan.
"Get lost!"
Xu Fan was equally startled by him.
Sidestepping swiftly, Yoshida Shun ended up sprawled on the ground.
"Yoshida Shun, I never pegged a boss like you to have such a disgusting hobby."
Looking at the pitiful Yoshida Shun, Xu Fan said with a face full of disdain.
Scaring me is one thing, but what if you terrorize the little girls at home?
"No, boss, I don't want to dress like this..."
"The little princesses said they didn't have a mom, so I thought... I'd give them some maternal love..."
Sprawled on the ground, Yoshida Shun explained to Xu Fan, face full of grievance.
Wearing women's clothes was forced upon him by the little girls at home.
Dressing as a woman was the least of his troubles; he and some cronies had suffered extensively to appease those little ones over the past few days.
Once armed with knives for collecting debts, now serving as ponies for these little girls.
Grievance turned into sniffles and tears as Yoshida Shun complained to Xu Fan, hoping that people in the underworld wouldn't hear about this.
A big boss turning into a domestic nanny would be utterly humiliating if known...
"Boss, rest assured, even though I feel aggrieved, those little princesses have been taken great care of these past days. You can go see for yourself!"
After a long wait, Xu Fan finally returned. Yoshida Shun stood up and led Xu Fan inside.
Inside, the little girls indeed seemed well-looked after by the normally knife-wielding ruffians.
"Alright, I didn't misjudge you."
Xu Fan nodded in satisfaction and said, "Guys like you should spend more time with kids to cleanse your violent tendencies."
"You're right, boss, you're right..."
Feeling like his dignity was stripped but under Xu Fan's words, it sounded beneficial. Yoshida Shun pouted but dared not speak further, nodding in agreement.
"Alright, you all wait outside for now."
Waving his hand, Xu Fan ushered Yoshida Shun and the others out.
In a moment, only Xu Fan, Igarashi, and Asao Mai were left inside.
"Big Sis, you're back!"
"Boohoo! Big Sis, we thought you abandoned us!"
At this moment, the little girls, crying, rushed towards Asao Mai.
Even though they were young and naive, during those few days, they missed Xu Fan and Asao Mai the same.
Now that both were back safely, how could they not be happy?
"Alright, why are you all crying? See? Big Sis is fine?"
"Tell me, were you good while Big Sis was gone these days?"
Seeing the girls missing her, Asao Mai was deeply moved.
Helping them wipe away tears, she teased them.
"Of course we were good! Big Brother said if we were good, he'd bring Big Sis back."
"Yes, yes, we were very good!"
Watching the little girls eagerly speaking, Xu Fan chuckled.
"Alright, you've all been good. Now go play aside, I have something to discuss with Big Sis."
Directing the little girls away, Xu Fan took Asao Mai aside.
"What's up? You're being all mysterious."
Being taken aside by Xu Fan, Asao Mai looked puzzled.
What was this guy planning?
"I'm leaving today."
Xu Fan said seriously, looking at her.
Asao Mai was taken aback upon hearing this.
She seemed to turn to stone.
He's... leaving her?
She had just prepared herself for a relationship, and now he suddenly wants to leave?
"Oh..."
A thousand thoughts of persuading Xu Fan to stay swirled in her mind, but in the end, all she managed was a single 'oh'.
After uttering this, Asao Mai sulkily turned her face away.
Her stubborn pride wouldn't allow her to voice her feelings.
"Pff."
Seeing her pride, Xu Fan couldn't help but chuckle.
She really was a girl who cared a lot about appearances.
Shaking his head, Xu Fan said, "You're alone here, it must be lonely. How about you come back to Huaxia with me?"
"Wha...what?"
