Chapter 91: Temptation

“Take the money out and return it to the old lady.”

Yang Fan’s gaze turned stern, carrying a chill that made one shiver.

The six men all looked terrified, nearly scared out of their wits. How could they dare refuse?

“I’ll give it back, I’ll give it back.”

One of the young men took out all the money on him and handed it to the old woman.

Seeing that they were giving so much, the old woman did not dare accept more than she had lost. She only wanted back the money she had been cheated out of.

But how could the six of them dare ask for it back? After handing over the money, they turned and fled.

“Hiss... That young man is incredibly skilled. He took down six people with ease.”

“I didn’t even see how he made his move, and those six brutes were already done for. Truly formidable.”

“He’s definitely a trained fighter, I’m sure of it.”

The people gathered nearby all exclaimed in admiration, their eyes filled with awe when they looked at Yang Fan.

He appeared to be only in his early twenties, with an ordinary build.

Those six, though they were all young and sturdy men, had not lasted a single exchange in Yang Fan’s hands. They were completely overwhelmed and beaten soundly.

“Grandma, are you all right?” Yu Qian walked to the old woman’s side and helped her up.

“Girl, I’m fine. Thank you to your man for stepping in, or else these old bones of mine would have been smashed apart,” the old woman said gratefully.

“As long as you’re all right, Grandma, that’s good.” Yu Qian’s cheeks flushed slightly.

Being mistaken for Yang Fan’s wife somehow made her feel sweet inside, and her face reddened unconsciously.

“Why are you still standing there? Let’s go buy vegetables,” Yang Fan said, glancing at Yu Qian.

Yu Qian smiled, walked to Yang Fan’s side, and looped her arm through his. “Let’s go.”

Her intimate gesture made Yang Fan feel somewhat unaccustomed to it, and he said in annoyance, “This seems a little too ambiguous.”

“What are you thinking about?” Yu Qian said coquettishly. “It’s perfectly normal to go out with a beauty like me, all right?”

She did not care in the slightest.

Though she was a little nervous inside, Yang Fan showed no sign of rejecting her, which put her at ease.

Yang Fan shook his head and let her cling to his arm.

The two of them went to the market to buy vegetables.

Throughout the whole walk, Yu Qian kept holding his arm, and her full bosom would occasionally brush against him without warning.

Yang Fan really could not stand her deliberate and unintentional teasing anymore, so he quickly pulled his arm free.

“Clinging to my arm like that makes me feel very awkward,” he said irritably.

“You have no sense of romance,” Yu Qian said with a roll of her eyes.

Ignoring her, Yang Fan bought a lot of vegetables at the market.

After they finished shopping, the two of them went home together.

Seeing Yang Fan bring back so many vegetables, Yu Qian felt a surge of anticipation.

Once they got home, Yang Fan began washing the vegetables and cooking.

Yu Qian said a word and went upstairs to take a shower.

When she came back down after bathing, she found that the meal was already done and everything had been set on the table.

The dishes were plentiful, colorful, fragrant, and appealing to the eye. Just smelling them or looking at them made one’s appetite surge.

“So fragrant. I never expected you to be this good at cooking,” Yu Qian said with a hint of excitement on her face.

The aroma made her appetite soar.

She picked up a piece of meat and ate it, immediately tasting how delicious it was, and continued eating with obvious enjoyment.

Looking at Yang Fan with astonishment, Yu Qian said in surprise, “You cook way too well. You’re a hundred times better than those famous chefs.”

Yu Qian swore that the meal Yang Fan had made was absolutely the most delicious food she had ever eaten in her life.

Looking at Yu Qian, Yang Fan truly did not know what to say.

She had just come out of the shower, and the lingering scent of body wash on her carried a faint, intoxicating sweetness.

Especially since she was only wearing a white top that fell down to her thighs.

What was even more fatal was that she had not worn a bra.

However Yang Fan looked at it, he felt that this woman was trying to tempt him.

“Couldn’t you dress properly before coming to eat?” he asked in annoyance.

With an innocent, adorable smile, Yu Qian blinked at him and said, “This is how I always dress at home.”

“But there’s a man in your house now,” Yang Fan said gloomily.

“You’re not the type of bad man I need to worry about, so what do I have to fear?” Yu Qian said casually. “Besides, I trust you.”

“Then at least put on a bra,” Yang Fan was truly speechless.

Yu Qian was a pretty little woman with a striking figure.

Without a bra, the outlines beneath her clothes were plainly visible.

This was blatant temptation.

Yang Fan thought Yu Qian must be doing it on purpose.

“Why are your eyes looking at my chest? Men really are all the same,” Yu Qian said with a slight pout.

Though she said that, she was quite pleased inside.

At the very least, she felt she still had some charm in Yang Fan’s eyes.

She naturally wanted to win over a man like him.

“We’re both in the same house. It’s normal to see each other, isn’t it?” Yang Fan said unhappily.

“Why say so much? Eat your meal already,” Yu Qian said, too lazy to argue further. She picked up her bowl and chopsticks and started eating.

Yang Fan shrugged and ate quietly.

Yu Qian’s appetite had been thoroughly awakened, and she was already paying little attention to her image as she ate, because the food was simply too good.

In her heart, she felt that becoming Yang Fan’s woman would be the happiest thing in the world.

This man made people feel safe, and he could cook such delicious food. There probably was not a second one like him under the heavens.

“Yang Fan, what kind of girl do you like?” Yu Qian suddenly asked.

“Why are you asking that?” Yang Fan frowned.

“Just tell me,” Yu Qian said, resting her chin in her hands as she looked at him full of expectation. “I’m curious. I just want to know.”

Yang Fan glanced at her and said lightly, “I don’t have any such plans.”

Right now, his whole mind was on cultivation. How could he have the heart for matters of romance?

He could sense the meaning behind Yu Qian’s words, but he truly had no desire to waste time on feelings.

“You don’t even plan to get married?” Yu Qian was not satisfied with his answer.

Why did she feel that Yang Fan was deliberately avoiding the question?

“No,” Yang Fan replied.

Hearing this, Yu Qian felt utterly frustrated.

Could it be that this guy in front of her was completely indifferent, uninterested in women?

“If you were looking for a wife, what do you think of me?” Yu Qian asked with great anticipation.

“Cough, cough.” Yang Fan nearly choked.

“Eat your meal. Stop talking about this,” Yang Fan did not want to say any more on the subject.

Seeing his reaction, Yu Qian curled her lips, clearly displeased.

“Sigh, I’m full. You can eat slowly.”

Yu Qian sighed, then stood up and stretched.

Yang Fan glanced at her and instantly saw that her proud figure had stretched the fabric of her shirt tight, especially those two distinct points beneath it.

He almost sprayed the food in his mouth right out.

He quickly pulled his gaze back.

This was definitely intentional, Yang Fan thought.

As a normal man, it would be a lie to say he was not at all moved.

Seeing the somewhat unnatural look on Yang Fan’s face, Yu Qian’s lips curved slightly, and she felt secretly triumphant.

“Aren’t you already full? Why are you still standing there?” Yang Fan asked.

“I suddenly want to watch you eat,” Yu Qian said, sitting back down and propping her cheeks on her hands, her eyes fixed on him.

She deliberately left her collar a little open, revealing a faint glimpse of snowy white within.
