After parking the car downstairs of Mu Qingyan's building, Xu Fan hurried up the stairs.
There were no men in Mu Qingyan's home, just two women, and Xu Fan was truly concerned something might have gone wrong.
Soon, he reached Mu Qingyan's floor and could see from afar that the door to Mu Qingyan's home was wide open.
Faintly, he could hear arguing coming from inside Mu Qingyan's home; it seemed something had happened.
Xu Fan frowned and quickly walked towards it.
Pushing the door open, he entered the room and looked into the living room, where he could see a crowd of people gathered in Mu Qingyan's home.
They were tense and confrontational, each one looking like an accuser.
It wasn't until Xu Fan entered the house that these people stopped talking.
"Xu... Xu Fan, why are you here..."
Following the gazes of the crowd, Mu Qingyan caught sight of Xu Fan entering the room; her pale face couldn't help but show some nervousness.
"Sister Qingyan, who are these people?"
Xu Fan walked into the living room, glanced over the crowd, and asked.
Even though he didn't know the purpose of these people's visit, judging by the atmosphere in the room, they were definitely not well-intentioned.
"Heh, Mu Qingyan, is this the pretty boy you've found for yourself?"
Before Mu Qingyan could answer, a portly middle-aged man sneered as he looked over at Xu Fan.
Pretty boy, that wasn't exactly a compliment; Xu Fan frowned and then smiled, "Uncle, can you speak properly please?"
"Hehehe..."
The middle-aged man, squinting his eyes and stroking the teacup in his hand, sneered, "What? You don't agree?"
"Look, kid, you've been drilling into a widow's house every other day, don't you feel ashamed?"
"And you, Mu Qingyan, how can you, a woman, have no sense of shame?"
"All you do is seduce men and bring them home; you may not be embarrassed, but we find it disgraceful."
"..."
Xu Fan looked at the other party expressionlessly and didn't say a word, then turned to look at Mu Qingyan again.
"Sister Qingyan, who are these people?"
"Neigh... neighbors..."
Mu Qingyan lowered her head and answered.
The answer was indeed what Xu Fan had expected.
As a single mother, Mu Qingyan's social identity was already prone to gossip, and these days, because he had been rushing to her house every night to treat Mu Xiaoduo's illness, it was likely that these people had misunderstood.
However, the way these people handled it was more extreme than Xu Fan had anticipated.
Had they actually come to Mu Qingyan's home to accuse her?
This kind of incident wasn't happening for the first time.
Living here for so long, due to Mu Qingyan's too striking beauty, over the years, she had suffered from so many people's idle talk.
Behind her back, many women had painted her as a woman as bad as one could imagine.
A reputation that she was powerless to dispute had attracted numerous men who wanted to take advantage of her.
Even though Mu Qingyan preserved her purity as Ruyu, she still couldn't escape this fate.
All this trouble, perhaps, stemmed from her being too outstanding, which provoked too much jealousy.
Xu Fan was innocent; he was only here to help her cure her daughter.
At this moment, Mu Qingyan stood up, wanting to explain to these people, but then she discovered that Mu Xiaoduo, whom she had sent to the bedroom earlier, was now leaning confusedly in the corner, staring at the living room.
"Xiaoduo, why did you come out, go back quickly..."
Mu Qingyan didn't want her daughter to be exposed to these disputes and waved her hands anxiously, wanting her daughter to hurry back to her room.
The middle-aged man watched, and couldn't help but let out a cold snort.
"Oh?"
"Mu Qingyan, you have the face to do this sort of thing, but not the face to let your daughter know?"
"Besides, your daughter, she's deaf to begin with. If you let her sit here, she won't hear anything, so what are you worried about?"
"You!"
These words were truly heart-wrenching, and Mu Qingyan, looking at the man with quite a high reputation in the community, trembled with anger.
Over the years, this man had never given up his entanglement with her.
Previously, in his pursuit of her, he had always been very polite. She had not expected that he would say such things today.
"Qingyan sister, please sit down first."
A feeling of helplessness spread in her heart, and at that moment, she saw Xu Fan beside her, expressionless, grabbing her hand and pulling her back to the couch.
"Xu Fan…"
Watching Mu Qingyan hesitate to speak, Xu Fan flashed a reassuring smile and said, "Leave it to me."
For a woman, the ensuing business was really not suitable. As a man, Xu Fan felt that it was more appropriate for him to handle what was to come.
Patting Mu Qingyan's shoulder, Xu Fan squinted his eyes and looked towards the middle-aged man.
"My friend, aren't you imposing?"
"An official?"
Seemingly very concerned about the word 'official,' the middle-aged man took a proud sip of tea and then laughed, "Heh, I dare not claim to be an official. I'm just a small director of the community residents' committee."
"With women who lack decency like this, doing such shameless deeds, for the sake of maintaining our community's reputation, naturally, I have to come over and educate."
"Educate?"
Seeing the man's arrogant demeanor, Xu Fan couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
He certainly didn't think that the man's actions were educational.
It was a trampling of human dignity.
Having been flattered by neighbors for years, he had developed such a disgusting face.
At this moment, Xu Fan, still with a smile on his face, walked over to the man.
"Kid, what are you..."
Even though Xu Fan had a smiling face at that moment, the middle-aged man felt an imposing aura from him that made it hard to breathe.
"You! What are you doing!"
Xu Fan reached out and directly snatched the cup from the director's hand.
Without paying attention to the anger on the man's face, Xu Fan looked at the Biluochun tea in the cup and laughed, "The tea you were drinking just now, it really carried some official authority, didn't it?"
Even Guan Shimeng's father didn't have such grandeur.
Thinking of the man's earlier insult to Duoduo, a cold glint flashed in Xu Fan's eyes. Clenching the teacup in his hand, he went straight for the man's head and hammered down!
With a 'ping' sound, the glass cup shattered directly on the director's head!
Blood plasma and tea together drenched the director, making him look like a drenched chicken!
At this moment, he screamed, wiped away the tea leaves covering his eyes, and then stood up in a terribly embarrassed state, glaring at Xu Fan!
"Do you know who I am? You dare to hit me?"
"Heh..."
No longer wishing to communicate with words, Xu Fan scoffed coldly, and with lightning-fast speed, drove his knee into the man's bloated belly!
It was so painful that it felt worse than a stab wound; the director's face contorted with pain. Holding his stomach, he ended up kneeling directly in front of Xu Fan.
"What status?"
Xu Fan chuckled coldly, threw down the remaining half of the cup he was holding, and said, "Even if you were the king of heaven, today I'd make you kneel before me."
