Chapter 285: Carry You into the Car

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

“Xu Fan, what are you doing!” Xu Yixue had not expected Xu Fan to suddenly sweep her into his embrace. The shock of being carried off in his arms made her cheeks flush with a mix of embarrassment and anger, and she almost forgot the pain in her abdomen as she kept kicking her legs.

“Don’t move around, I’m taking you to the car to treat you!” Xu Fan said with a serious face.

“I don’t need your treatment, put me down now, or I’ll start calling for help,” Xu Yixue hurriedly said to Xu Fan, her face burning with embarrassment.

“It’d be better if you didn’t call out; that would attract even more attention. Just come to the car peacefully, let me alleviate your pain—then you can call out if you need to,” Xu Fan whispered into Xu Yixue’s ear before she could argue and headed towards the entrance of Kendeji.

“Xiao Ning, keep an eye on Tongtong, I’ll go treat her first,” Xu Fan instructed, not forgetting to remind the bewildered Ye Xiaoning before he left.

Today’s Ye Xiaoning seemed to be lacking her usual spirited charm.

As her mind was consumed by the company’s intense struggle in the stock market, she’d been rather distracted all day, scarcely speaking more than a few words.

Seeing Xu Fan hurry off with Xu Yixue in his arms, Ye Xiaoning knew she couldn’t stop him and that Xu Fan was genuinely capable of curing the pain inside Yixue’s lower abdomen. It was only Yixue’s shyness preventing her from wanting Xu Fan to touch her.

Hence, Ye Xiaoning nodded to Xu Fan without any objections, naturally hoping for Xu Yixue to get better soon.

Tongtong obediently shook his head at Xu Fan and then sat down next to Ye Xiaoning.

By this time, Xu Fan was already carrying Xu Yixue through the long corridor of Kendeji, toward the entrance.

Along the way, many diners looked up to see Xu Fan briskly walking out with a delicate beauty in his arms.

Now Xu Yixue didn’t have the energy to struggle as she did before in Xu Fan’s embrace; she curled up shyly in his arms like a kitten, not even daring to show her head.

Xu Fan, the blockhead, was being a bit too overbearing. Sure, you possess miraculous medical skills, but I never gave you permission to treat me—how dare you impose your treatment on me?

Xu Yixue thought bitterly, her face still red with embarrassment buried in Xu Fan’s embrace.

When they reached the door, Xu Fan realized that the glass doors of Kendeji were quite springy, normally requiring a good push with an arm to open.

With his arms full carrying Xu Yixue, Xu Fan had no hands free to push the door. Kicking it open or bumping it with his backside didn’t seem to fit the demeanor of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Xu Yixue also noticed the door, so she lightly lifted her head and said to Xu Fan, “Put me down, and you go open the door.”

“Heh, no need for you to worry about that,” Xu Fan chuckled. Even though he couldn’t free his hands to open the door, he was a Martial Arts Grandmaster after all and had long mastered the Air Control Technique. No hands needed, he could do anything regardless.

Xu Fan, holding Xu Yixue in his arms, simply gave a slight smile, walking straight toward the glass doors of the Kendeji, as if he didn’t see the two large, hard, tempered glass doors in front of him at all.

“Ah!” Just when Xu Yixue thought Xu Fan was about to smash into the Kendeji doors with his face, she suddenly discovered that the moment Xu Fan reached the entrance, the two glass doors, just like the most standard gatekeepers, whooshed open quickly, as if an invisible pair of hands were specifically there to welcome Xu Fan.

Xu Yixue couldn’t figure out the mechanism and assumed that the doors could open and close automatically, then buried her blushing head low into Xu Fan’s chest.

After leaving the building, Xu Yixue noticed something strange, when she was sitting at the table, her lower abdomen hurt as if it were being stabbed with needles, but after being picked up by Xu Fan, the pain in her body greatly reduced, and when she buried her head into Xu Fan’s chest and clung to him, the icy, twisting pain in her lower abdomen mysteriously disappeared.

Every time Xu Yixue lifted her head from Xu Fan’s chest, she would feel the cold pain in her lower abdomen begin to throb faintly, although the pain was much less than when it had flared up at the table.

What Xu Yixue didn’t know was that Xu Fan wasn’t exactly a martial artist; he was a cultivator from legend. The Chaos Origin Art that Xu Fan cultivated was one of the most powerful and mystical inner cultivation methods in existence. The Spiritual Energy cultivated from the Chaos Origin Art could be freely transformed into various attributes, and it also had the effect of nurturing all things and creating anew.

The Chaos Origin Art within Xu Fan was no longer something that he only practiced during meditation at night. Although meditating did increase his efficiency in cultivation, having been one of the top brass in the Cultivation World in his past life, Xu Fan had long since mastered the Inner Cultivation Method. Put simply, no matter whether he was eating, sleeping, or engaging in any other activity, the Spiritual Energy inside Xu Fan’s body was constantly cultivating at idle speed, following the method outlined by the Chaos Origin Art.

So when Xu Yixue’s body was close to Xu Fan, the chill within her was slowly dispersed by the Spiritual Energy from Xu Fan’s body, which was why she felt the pain in her body weaken and even disappear.

Xu Fan’s car wasn’t parked far from the Kendeji’s entrance. After leaving the restaurant, Xu Fan moved swiftly and reached his white Audi S7 in the blink of an eye.

Xu Fan then utilized his Air Control Technique, gently pressing the car key with his mind.

Xu Yixue, in Xu Fan’s arms, didn’t even see him move a finger when the Audi S7 next to them beeped twice, unlocking.

The hefty car door automatically sprang open with a click, the usual old method at work.

Xu Fan bent over slowly and gently placed Xu Yixue in the back seat of the car.

Since the back seat also had Tongtong’s child safety seat installed, even though the space there wasn’t small, after accounting for the safety seat, the space in the back was quite limited.

After Xu Yixue was seated in the back, Xu Fan slid into the rear seat as well, which became a bit cramped after two people sat down.

As a result, Xu Fan and Xu Yixue’s bodies couldn’t help but be quite close to each other.

“Aren’t you supposed to be treating an illness? Why do you keep staring at me?” Xu Yixue blushed and, seeing Xu Fan staring blankly at her after he entered the back seat, lowered her head and playfully scolded him.

“Ah, right, treating the illness,” Xu Fan coughed lightly, trying to cover up.
