Chapter 1909: Chapter 55: Definitely Not Him

Gu Yunbo was dumbfounded, raising her head in shock to see the handsome face so close, bathed in moonlight with a luminous glow, beautiful like a fairy and more like a demon. She bit her lip; it hurt, not an illusion nor a mirage.

"Take it." Meng Fan urged.

"What for?" She looked at the hundred-dollar bill presented in front of her, even more confused.

"It’s New Year’s money! Aren’t you here to give me New Year’s greetings?" Meng Fan’s gaze fell on her knee, which was kneeling on the ground, with one hand supporting herself.

Gu Yunbo leapt up from the ground instantly, her mind must be confused to give him New Year’s greetings.

"What are you doing here?" She turned to scout around, the strong sense of murderous intent and danger had disappeared. She looked at Meng Fan, who seemed calm and unperturbed, dismissing her ridiculous assumptions.

Definitely not him.

The danger and murderous aura earlier were too intense, too dominant and cold. This aura absolutely didn’t belong to Meng Fan, who was a bright gentleman, while the other was a bloodthirsty demon.

Completely different, worlds apart, definitely not him.

"Follow me." She warily pulled Meng Fan back into the house, closing the door behind them, even daring not to turn on the lights, her eyes warily fixed outside. Her body was tense, still holding Meng Fan tightly, their proximity awkwardly intimate.

Meng Fan’s eyes traced the intertwining hands, standing behind her without moving.

Gu Yunbo observed for a long time, ensuring the danger had vanished before finally breathing a sigh of relief. Suddenly, her strength seemed to drain away, falling backward into Meng Fan’s arms.

"Scared me to death." She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead; it was truly dangerous just now. In theory, there are only a few top experts in the Northern District, with Meng Fan as one of the younger generation, Living Yama as another, along with Shen Yu, but none of them matched the person from before.

Who could it be?

Could it be someone from

An older generation like Su Hai?

Meng Fan captured her expression, lips curled into a subtle smile. This young girl reacts quite well, a good candidate for a rescue comrade.

Gu Yunbo racked her brains for a long time but couldn’t figure it out, determined to find out as it was terrifying to have such a dangerous person nearby.

Focused on her thoughts, she didn’t realize she was still leaning in the man’s embrace. She moved unintentionally, bumping her head against the man’s chin, making a loud sound.

"Sorry, are you okay?" Gu Yunbo came to her senses, feeling guilty, concerned, and a bit awkward, she helped Meng Fan to sit down on a chair, squatting on the ground looking at him.

"Does it hurt? It must hurt, right? The chin is very fragile, what if it’s damaged?" Such a handsome chin.

Meng Fan’s pale face, normally like jade, now had a patch of red on the perfectly lined chin; he hissed, rubbing it made it even redder.

"Hurting? Do you want me to rub it for you?"

Meng Fan opened his hand, giving her a strange look, then handed over another hundred dollars.

"..." Does he have a lot of money?

"Giving me New Year’s greetings again." Meng Fan’s voice carried a hint of helplessness, stuffing money into her pocket, "Two hundred dollars now. You’re making quite a profit from New Year’s greetings."

Gu Yunbo took out the two hundred dollars from her pocket, feeling a mix of amusement and frustration, wanting to return it but her gaze slid to her knee still touching the ground, so she put it back.

The New Year is approaching; she can’t kneel for nothing. Even though she wasn’t actually kneeling nor meant to give him New Year’s greetings.

But she’s short of money! Poverty limits ambition, as emaciated horses have long hair.
