Chapter 475: Be Careful, It’s Poisonous
The woman entering Lv Xinxin's office was Song Meimei, also a teacher, who taught dance courses during the time Ye Fan was in Ba Country. Because she was the stewardess Ye Fan saved from the airplane during the terrorist attack.
Song Meimei had just arrived at the school and had a preliminary understanding of the teachers and students, getting along fairly well with Lv Xinxin.
Newly arrived, Lv Xinxin was the teacher she was closest to, so she came to invite Lv Xinxin to eat together.
But upon seeing Ye Fan, she was immediately stunned, blurting out "Interpol" without thinking.
At that time, when Ye Fan was saving people, he claimed to be an Interpol agent to quickly stabilize the emotions of the passengers, a trustworthy identity he casually chose.
"Interpol officer, I didn't expect to see you here," Song Meimei said, both happy and admiring.
This admiration was evident; Ye Fan's performance on the plane was extraordinary, naturally viewing him as a hero.
"It's you, you're that stewardess," Ye Fan, with a good memory, easily recognized the woman he had met once.
"Interpol officer, you still remember me, that's great, I'm Song Meimei," said Song Meimei happily.
"Why did you become a teacher? Changed professions?" Ye Fan nodded politely, feeling strange about how Song Meimei addressed him, and explained: "I'm not an Interpol agent; I just found an excuse to calm the passengers then. Please don't call me that anymore."
"Ah, you're not an Interpol officer," Song Meimei exclaimed in surprise, apologizing, "Sorry for calling you wrong."
"It's okay," Ye Fan complied.
Song Meimei awkwardly said, "The terrorist attack nearly scared me to death, leaving a shadow in my heart. So, I dared not be a stewardess anymore and switched to an easier job. I've been seeing a psychologist for quite a while. You wouldn't look down on me, thinking I'm cowardly, right?"
"Of course not," Ye Fan said helplessly, feeling a bit overwhelmed by Song Meimei's gratitude.
Besides, Song Meimei's choices have nothing to do with him. Why should she care about his attitude, behaving in a way that fears his disdain?
He just acted casually and happened to save Song Meimei, but her exaggerated reaction of treating him as a benefactor was a bit too apparent.
For Ye Fan, the situation was insignificant, but for Song Meimei, who had never experienced such scenes, it was terrifying; she still has nightmares that turned into dreams. The image of Ye Fan saving her under the gunpoint of terrorists rooted deeply in her heart.
Of course, Ye Fan in her mind was a big hero, and that's her little secret.
Upon hearing Ye Fan pretend to be an Interpol officer to calm the passengers, she was delighted, reinforcing her recognition of Ye Fan's heroic figure. If it were a regular person, they would only care about themselves and not help others; such acts of helping others are rare.
"Worthy of being my hero, so responsible," Song Meimei thought excitedly.
"You know each other?" Lv Xinxin smiled coyly, feeling extremely bitter inside. At least Ye Fan didn't show any good expressions to her, while he was polite to Song Meimei, which naturally upset her.
Song Meimei hastily said, "Sister Lv, we met once before, not really acquainted."
"He's Ye Fan, a relative of one of my students, not an Interpol agent. Don't get it wrong again," Lv Xinxin laughed and explained, from their conversation, she guessed the process of their acquaintance, though not knowing the details.
Knowing Ye Fan's name made Song Meimei very happy, cautiously asking, "Brother Ye, may I call you that? You're my lifesaver. Do you have time? I'd like to treat you to a meal to express my gratitude."
"Well, I have something to do, so I might not be able to accept your invitation," Ye Fan politely refused.
He was very puzzled why she called him Brother Ye after just one meeting; there's no need to be so close.
But since Song Meimei spoke expectantly, he couldn't refuse heartlessly, saying it's inappropriate to call him that.
"I see," Song Meimei said disappointedly, "Sister Lv, what does Brother Ye have to do?"
"It's about Xu Qianqian's issues, as you know," Lv Xinxin said helplessly, "He's Xu Qianqian's relative, so I called using Xu Qianqian's provided phone number to let her restrain herself to prevent incidents."
Song Meimei felt slightly better, seeing Ye Fan wasn't just finding an excuse to refuse her but indeed had something to do.
Lv Xinxin had her own thoughts, secretly thinking: "Ye Fan has saved Song Meimei, adding that Song Meimei, such a wealthy girl, must feel favorable towards Ye Fan. Her expression even a fool could see clearly. It might be good to use her feelings to get closer to Ye Fan."
"Ye Fan, I think let's sit together and discuss, have a meal, and let Song Meimei express her gratitude. We can talk about Xu Qianqian's matter during the meal. Besides, Xu Qianqian races in the west suburbs of the school near evening; I'm sure she'll appear there. Right now, I don't know where Xu Qianqian is," Lv Xinxin suggested, "There's still time now. After eating, you can find Xu Qianqian; the timing fits."
Song Meimei gratefully glanced at Lv Xinxin, thinking that Lv Xinxin intentionally found a chance for her to meet Ye Fan.
"Brother Ye, Sister Lv makes sense, what do you think?" Song Meimei cautiously asked.
"Alright," Ye Fan pondered for a moment and agreed, having other thoughts for agreeing.
"Great," Song Meimei rejoiced softly, not feeling awkward with Lv Xinxin around, allowing her to further communicate and understand Ye Fan.
"Let's go quickly," Song Meimei said anxiously.
"You two go ahead; I'll clean up and catch up," Lv Xinxin said.
Ye Fan and Song Meimei went out first, while Lv Xinxin's focus was on the bottle of water placed in front of Ye Fan.
Lv Xinxin poured the water into a flowerpot on the balcony.
Then she left.
Not long after, a big Black Cat kept as a pet in Lv Xinxin's office collapsed on the ground, meowing miserably twice after licking the beverage in the flowerpot, dead.
