Chapter 023:
"Did someone shout for help?"
At this moment, Shen Qingxin also heard the sound.
"I'll go check it."
Yun Bufan walked in the direction of the voice.
Arriving at a dark corner, he saw Bai Yuexi being pressed against a car by someone.
Yun Bufan didn't waste any time. He directly lifted the person up and slammed them hard against the opposite wall.
"Trash, get lost!"
The person knew he was wrong, but more importantly, clearly sensing Yun Bufan's formidable strength, he ran away.
"Yun... Yun Bufan?"
Bai Yuexi's face was tearful as she looked at him pitifully.
Yun Bufan said indifferently, "It's okay now, leave."
"I'm scared, can you accompany me home?"
Although Bai Yuexi could be arrogant and proud at times, she was still a girl and frightened.
Yun Bufan shook his head, "I'm busy."
Bai Yuexi was stunned.
She hadn't expected to be rejected.
After all, she was usually the one rejecting others.
Bai Yuexi had no choice but to call the driver and leave when the driver arrived.
Yun Bufan wasn't interested in Miss Bai.
She wasn't Heavenly Blessing's daughter, after all.
When Yun Bufan returned into the car, Shen Qingxin asked what had happened.
Yun Bufan told her what had happened.
Hearing his words, Shen Qingxin looked at Yun Bufan with strange eyes.
There was a hint of tenderness in that look.
Could it be that... he had really changed?
[Ding! The system detected that Shen Qingxin's favorability for the host had increased by 3000 points. You can choose to decrease Su Chen's luck value or increase your luck value]
"Decrease Su Chen's luck value."
[Ding! Su Chen's luck value decreased by 3000 points, current total 87,000 points]
Back home, Yun Bufan went to his room.
Just after finishing washing up and lying down on the bed, Feng Li's call came in.
Yun Bufan smirked.
"Hello, Mr. Feng."
Feng Li said, "No need to be so polite, you also helped me out today. We're good brothers from now on."
Yun Bufan didn't buy it.
After all, when this guy got serious, he was ruthless, even considering killing his own father.
Yun Bufan replied with a smile, "Sure, from now on, I'll call you Brother Feng."
"By the way, I didn't expect you to know He Sinian."
Feng Li said meaningfully.
Yun Bufan said, "I'm not very familiar with He Sinian, just acquaintances."
Feng Li naturally understood that this was modesty.
"Hmm, about the stocks..."
"Oh, I almost forgot. I'll tell you about a few stocks now, pay attention."
Yun Bufan told Feng Li about several stocks that had recently seen significant increases and the dates of buying and selling.
"Okay, thank you."
Feng Li was quite grateful. "Brother Yun, let's hang out sometime when you're free."
"Sure."
After hanging up the phone, a crisp system sound rang in his mind.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission, rewarding one billion yuan in cash, plus a set of Profound Rank martial arts -Flash Steps]
Yun Bufan invested the cash into the stock market.
At the same time, a set of martial arts automatically appeared in his mind, which he quickly comprehended.
"Flash Steps sounds awesome, let me try it out."
Yun Bufan activated the martial art and instantly moved like a gust of wind beneath his feet, disappearing from the spot.
Ah!
In the blink of an eye, he crashed into the opposite wall.
Damn!
It was a good martial art, and the speed was comparable to a car's.
Yun Bufan rubbed his sore nose, practiced all night, and finally mastered the technique.
The next day, Yun Bufan went out, preparing to visit the Yun family company.
He found Shen Qingxin hurrying out.
Not only that, but her eyes were also red as if she had just cried.
He suddenly remembered today's plot.
Shen Qingxin had a useless cousin named Shen Zhuo, who was addicted to gambling.
Originally, the Shen family was already struggling, but this cousin's actions had burdened them with debt.
Shen Qingxin learned that her grandfather, who had just recovered from a severe illness, had fainted due to Shen Zhuo's actions, so she rushed back to the Shen family.
According to the original plot, Shen Qingxin would soon encounter a series of car accidents on the way, with more than twenty cars colliding.
It so happened that Su Chen passed by and saved her.
Thinking of this, Yun Bufan immediately got into his car and followed.
Although the system didn't prompt him to do the mission, Shen Qingxin had the special physique of Heavenly Blessing.
Yun Bufan couldn't let Su Chen gain Shen Qingxin's favor.
...
(On the road)
As soon as the car left the overpass, a car ahead suddenly lost control.
Shen Qingxin was distracted. She didn't notice the situation in time and crashed into it.
Although she slammed on the brakes in time and wasn't injured, she was trapped in the driver's seat.
The scene turned chaotic.
Yun Bufan got out of the car immediately.
Just then, he saw Su Chen on the side of the road.
He couldn't help but sigh, truly worthy of being the son of luck.
Even after changing so many plots, he still managed to appear here by chance.
Yun Bufan immediately took out his phone and called Xia Xue.
At this point, Su Chen had already seen Shen Qingxin's car.
He was about to walk over when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
"Hello, who is this?"
A sweet voice came from the phone, "It's me, Xia Xue. I want to talk to you."
Normally, if it were someone else, Su Chen wouldn't bother.
After all, the opportunity to be a hero doesn't come daily.
But when he heard Xia Xue's melodious voice, Su Chen suddenly became interested.
"What's the matter?"
On the other end of the line, Xia Xue rolled her eyes and politely said, "I wasn't very nice to you last time. I've thought about it, after all, we're engaged, so I want to get to know you."
"Sure!"
Su Chen was overjoyed and walked to the side to answer the phone. He completely forgot about Shen Qingxin.
At this moment, confirming that Su Chen had left, Yun Bufan rushed over and rescued Shen Qingxin.
Shen Qingxin looked at Yun Bufan.
"Don't say anything, you're injured, let me help you to rest over there."
Yun Bufan helped her to a bench by the roadside.
