Although it was a false alarm, it had indeed frightened some people. However, the name of the little divine doctor had truly spread.
Lu Fan managed to pacify Zhao Rongrong. Seeing that it was getting late, he asked Taohua and the others to help prepare dinner. He invited everyone who had been working to eat at his place to calm their nerves.
In the evening, Lu Fan sent Liu Ruyan back to the village branch. Just as they arrived at the entrance of the village branch, he heard the sound of a motorcycle behind them. Turning his head, he saw that Shen Xinyi had arrived again.
"Hehe! Did I come at the wrong time again?" Shen Xinyi said with a giggle upon seeing Lu Fan and Liu Ruyan walking side by side.
Liu Ruyan's pretty face immediately flushed red, and she shot Shen Xinyi a glare. She secretly grumbled, *You really came at the wrong time! I just had a scare and wanted Lu Fan to comfort me properly, but this girl had to show up. It seems...*
"You came too late; we've already finished dinner. If you haven't eaten... Hmph! You'll just have to starve!" Liu Ruyan said with a huff.
"Alas! It seems I'm truly being neglected for a woman! Someone wasn't like this before!" Shen Xinyi rode her motorcycle into the village branch courtyard. After parking, she walked to Liu Ruyan's side, glanced at Lu Fan, and playfully stuck out her tongue, saying, "Miss Liu! I want to discuss something with you!"
"What is it?" Liu Ruyan asked.
"Can I borrow your little heartthrob for a bit?" Shen Xinyi suddenly said with a grin.
Lu Fan's heart immediately stirred with a wave of emotion...
"No borrowing!" Liu Ruyan immediately glared at Shen Xinyi. Could a little heartthrob be lent out casually?
"Oh, come on... Just lend him to me for a bit! I promise I won't break him!" Shen Xinyi pleaded, tugging at Liu Ruyan's arm.
"Still no! What if he gets broken by accident!?"
"Ahem..." Lu Fan almost choked to death. Could the two ladies consider my feelings while chatting?
"Ladies! How about we all..."
"Pfft... As if!"
"Hmph... You dare?"
Before Lu Fan could finish speaking, Liu Ruyan and Shen Xinyi simultaneously widened their eyes and stared at Lu Fan, looking as if they wanted to devour him.
"I mean... how about we all... go for a late-night snack! I still have some snake meat!" Lu Fan said, swallowing hard and stammering.
"That sounds good, we can have some small barbecue!" Liu Ruyan immediately smiled. She used to love skewers.
"Then why don't we go to town! This time is just right," Shen Xinyi said, her eyes lighting up.
"Alright! I'll go to the peach orchard quickly and be right back!" Lu Fan said, then turned and rode Shen Xinyi's motorcycle towards the peach orchard.
Liu Ruyan knew Lu Fan was going to water the peach trees. She turned to look at Shen Xinyi, "Xinyi! What do you want Lu Fan to help you with?"
"For some reason, a lot of snakes have suddenly appeared in town. They're elusive and hide everywhere, frightening many people. Because there are so many, the police are helpless! So, I want Lu Fan to help catch snakes. I heard that wild chickens, rabbits, and wild boars can all obey him, and he even brought back snake meat. Catching snakes shouldn't be a problem! It's just that I'm afraid it might disturb your little romance. Hehe!" Shen Xinyi said with a hurried giggle.
"Then you said you wouldn't break him? Catching snakes is very dangerous!" Liu Ruyan said angrily.
"It might be dangerous for others, but for him, it's probably effortless. Hmph! You're just unwilling to share! You're neglecting friends for romance!"
"Hmph! Why don't you call your boyfriend to catch snakes!?"
"Tsk! You admit he's your boyfriend? Hey, seeing how you care about him, have you really slept with him? Come here, let your sister check you out..."
"Get lost! Don't talk nonsense! You're the one who slept with him..."
...
Lu Fan quickly rode the motorcycle back from the peach forest.
Lu Fan had originally planned to ride the motorcycle himself, carrying the two beautiful women. However, Shen Xinyi pulled him off the vehicle. So, Shen Xinyi rode the motorcycle, carrying Lu Fan, with Liu Ruyan sitting behind Lu Fan.
This was Lu Fan's first time experiencing being sandwiched like this. The front was warm, and the back was soft. Being in the middle, he felt a surge of heat.
Whether it was intentional or due to uneven roads, Shen Xinyi braked twice. Lu Fan's body reacted. At this point, Shen Xinyi might have realized she was playing with fire. The motorcycle sped off, reaching the town in just a few minutes. Shen Xinyi parked the vehicle in front of a barbecue stall.
"Lu Fan! What's wrong with you?" As soon as they got off the motorcycle, Liu Ruyan noticed Lu Fan's face was flushed red and he looked very uncomfortable.
"I... I'm just a little thirsty!" Lu Fan flipped his wrist, and a bottle of water appeared in his hand. He gulped it down.
Liu Ruyan shot Shen Xinyi a fierce glare. Suddenly, she noticed that Shen Xinyi's pretty face was also flushed red, and she also looked like she wanted to drink water...
"Lu Fan! Are you alright? Actually, Xinyi wants you to help them catch snakes. There's a snake infestation in town." Liu Ruyan's pretty face was flushed red. She regretted listening to Shen Xinyi and sitting in the front... Oh! It was so embarrassing.
"Boss! Grill twenty kidney skewers for me! I'll be right back!" Lu Fan shouted to the barbecue stall owner. Damn it! He almost lost his virility. But even if he hadn't, he needed to replenish!
"Xinyi! Where have the snakes appeared? Take me to see them!" Lu Fan said.
"Over there, two streets away! The police from our station are also over there." Shen Xinyi was patting her flushed cheeks, not daring to look directly at Lu Fan, and pointed to the two streets nearby.
Although Fengyuan Town was not large, only having a crossroads, it had a considerable number of residents. The residential areas were not much different from ordinary villages, with each household having its own courtyard. Not many people lived in apartment buildings.
It was already evening, but this street was filled with residents who were afraid to go back to sleep because of the snakes.
Several police officers from the police station were patrolling the street. They had caught four snakes that day, but residents said they had seen many more and didn't know where they were hiding. They were helpless because they didn't know where the snakes were concealed.
"Why are there snakes on the street?" Lu Fan asked as he walked along the street.
"According to residents, a snake vendor passed by here, and somehow one of the cages opened, releasing all the snakes inside, possibly over twenty. The snake vendor fled by car, fearing trouble," Shen Xinyi said, following behind.
"Alright! Prepare a cage, and everyone stay back!" Lu Fan signaled Liu Ruyan and Shen Xinyi to move further away. Then, he muttered something unintelligible to himself and walked forward along the street.
Whoosh... A snake suddenly crawled out from a corner and followed behind Lu Fan. Whoosh... Another snake emerged from the yard of a nearby house and also crawled slowly forward, following Lu Fan.
What the heck... Who is this kid? He's too awesome!
Many villagers and police officers were stunned.
