Xu Fan walked up to Piao Daosi, reached out his hand, grabbed his hair, and with the pen in his hand, began drawing rapidly on his fair face.

The strokes flowed smoothly, and soon Xu Fan had left a vivid drawing of a big turtle on Piao Daosi's face.

"By Xu Fan."

Leaving his autograph next to the big turtle on Piao Daosi's face, Xu Fan then said, "Alright, you can go now."

"By the way, here's a piece of advice for you, don't dig further into this matter."

Having been swindled for over ten million on the street, someone like Piao Daosi would most likely continue to entangle himself with me.

I didn't mind playing with him further, the reminder was purely out of good intentions.

Whether he listened or not was naturally up to him.

Whether he came back to settle accounts with Xu Fan was a matter for later, and he definitely needed to make a quick escape for now.

Piao Daosi took a deep look at Xu Fan then led his men away, disappearing completely.

With that, the spectacle had ended, and the surrounding onlookers quickly dispersed one by one.

Except for those few students still standing expectantly.

"Alright, don't be shy, come over."

They were clearly staying for Guan Shimeng's autograph; Xu Fan beckoned them over.

Taking the notebook from their hands, he passed it to Guan Shimeng.

"Big star, do us a favor."

"Heh, annoying."

Seeing Xu Fan's feigned teasing manner, Guan Shimeng chuckled and playfully punched Xu Fan's chest.

This scene directly bewildered the three surrounding students.

They looked on with envy; even though two million had fallen from the sky, they were still quite a distance away compared to Xu Fan.

For these three students, Shimeng felt a bit guilty, she always thought that it was because of her that they were caught in this unwarranted disaster.

For now, she certainly had no objection to such a modest request for an autograph.

After signing quickly in the notebook, she handed it back to the three students.

"Thank you for your support, I'm really sorry for what happened just now."

"It's okay, sis, you're too kind!"

"Yeah, yeah, we're all tough guys, we can take it."

"Heh heh, we won't disturb you two enjoying your world together, we'll head off now."

The three students cheerfully accepted the autographed notebook from Guan Shimeng, and didn't forget to tease her a bit.

They quickly ran off after speaking, leaving Guan Shimeng feeling quite embarrassed.

Thinking about what these junior students had said about her relationship with Xu Fan, Guan Shimeng's heart started beating crazily.

She looked at Xu Fan and hurriedly explained.

"Xu Fan, you... don't listen to them, I... I..."

"Oh, silly girl."

Seeing Guan Shimeng strenuously explaining, Xu Fan couldn't help but chuckle.

He looked at her teasingly and then asked, "What? Is it that you wouldn't like me being your boyfriend?"

"No! No such thing! I... I..."

Xu Fan's playful reproach made Guan Shimeng suddenly realize that explaining this way might lead to certain misunderstandings.

Her effort to clear up any relationship with Xu Fan might make others think she could be like Piao Daosi, a celebrity!

However, waving it off seemed like denying it was not quite right either.

In which case, wouldn't she be implying to Xu Fan that she really hoped to be his little girlfriend?

"Annoying, I... I'm not saying anymore..."

Feeling extremely conflicted, Guan Shimeng simply chose to give up.

"Silly girl, alright, my car is just nearby, let's get in the car first."

Just teasing her a bit, with no other intentions, Xu Fan shook his head and led Guan Shimeng towards where his car was parked.

"By the way, what's your relationship with that Korean kid?"

Getting in the car with Shimeng, Xu Fan asked about Piao Daosi's background.

Upon hearing this, Guan Shimeng sighed.

"That guy is a recently popular young actor, with many female fans, although I don't like his so-called personality, but it's too much for others to handle."

"He currently has a collaborative relationship with our company, and we have a business performance in Jinling this time, so the company arranged for him and me to come together..."

Guan Shimeng explained briefly, and Xu Fan roughly understood Piao Daosi's identity.

In simple terms, he was a young actor in the same company as Guan Shimeng.

"I see, I thought you suddenly returned to Jinling because you had some trouble to deal with."

Hearing Xu Fan's words at this moment, Guan Shimeng couldn't help but frown.

She weakly glanced at Xu Fan, biting her lip, hesitating a bit, and finally spoke.

"Actually... my family did encounter a bit of trouble..."

"Hmm?"

"What happened? What trouble did your family face?"

Looking at Guan Shimeng's worried expression, Xu Fan couldn't help but ask curiously.

"My... my grandpa got hurt..."

Guan Shimeng looked at Xu Fan and said.

This company engagement was something she could avoid, but due to her family reasons, she agreed to this engagement.

When her grandfather was injured, the first person she thought of was Xu Fan.

Previously, her grandfather's old illness was cured by Xu Fan, and this time he was hurt, he also would certainly have a solution.

But Xu Fan wasn't in Jinling, worried that her matters would trouble Xu Fan, Guan Shimeng held back and didn't contact him.

She worried Xu Fan would see her as a burden who only troubled him.

But now that he appeared in Jinling, she finally couldn't hold it in.

With her grandfather's condition far from ideal, she really couldn't bear to see anything happen to him, so she mustered the courage to speak up.

"The old man got hurt?"

Upon hearing Guan Shimeng's explanation, Xu Fan couldn't help but frown.

What she said was he was hurt, meaning someone had harmed the old man.

It's known that the Guan Family's elder wasn't an ordinary figure, how could someone dare hurt him now?

"Xu Fan, I... I really didn't lie to you..."

"Grandpa was really beaten up, several well-known doctors in the province took turns trying to save him a few days ago, finally stabilizing his condition. He... he is still lying in the hospital..."

Worried that Xu Fan would find her deceitful, Guan Shimeng explained again.

As she spoke, remembering her grandfather still lying in hospital, her eyes began to redden.

"Silly girl, alright, don't cry."

Seeing Guan Shimeng secretly wiping tears, Xu Fan couldn't help but smile helplessly, pinching her cheek a little, then said, "Alright, tell me, where is the old man now."

"In such a case, I really need to go and see, and also find out who's daring enough to eat a bear and leopard's heart."
