After leaving the hospital, Song Fan didn’t head straight home. Instead, she took a bus to the eastern part of A City, a quieter and less bustling area compared to the west.

Once on the bus, she noticed that someone was watching her, and their gaze hadn’t wavered since she got on board. It was evident that they were familiar with her.

Song Fan raised her hand, using the reflection in her watch to discreetly glance behind her. She spotted a masked man sitting in the corner, his eyes fixed on her. It was clear that she was being targeted.

While she didn’t know who had sent him after her, Song Fan didn’t feel threatened by him. She had faced much more perilous situations during her time on the battlefield.

Midway through the bus ride, Song Fan decided to disembark. She couldn’t risk leading him to her destination, potentially putting others in danger.

The person from the bus followed her, maintaining a significant distance. If it weren’t for Song Fan’s extraordinary awareness, she might not have realized she was being trailed.

Once off the bus, she began walking along the main road without a clear destination in mind. Her actions were intended to confuse the man. He couldn’t discern her plans.

Song Fan had no intention of engaging in a confrontation with him. A City was different from other places, and she planned to lay low here for the time being. So, she did her best not to attract attention and simply aimed to shake off the man.

She avoided taking small paths, which would make her an easy target. Her goal was to blend into the bustling main road.

The man tailing her couldn’t see her clearly and had to take a calculated risk to close the gap.

In an instant, Song Fan vanished into the crowd. The man scanned the area but couldn’t locate her. It was as if she had suddenly disappeared from the world.

Song Fan was casually strolling along the streets, and when she noticed the presence of so many people around, she decided to change her attire. She purchased a short skirt from a street stall and quickly changed into it. To complete her new look, she also donned a hat of the same color, instantly transforming her appearance.

Her new outfit allowed her to blend in seamlessly with the crowd. It was the kind of look that wouldn’t draw much attention, and the man seemed to ignore her entirely. She would not be discovered even if she walked away directly.

After successfully losing the man who had been tailing her, Song Fan continued on her way. As she turned a corner, she came across Su Yang, who was holding a cup of coffee.

Su Yang’s expression changed when he saw Song Fan, and he addressed her as “Miss Song” in a tone of utmost respect as if encountering a rare and valuable treasure.

Song Fan knew that Gu Chen must be nearby when she saw Su Yang’s reaction. She glanced in the direction Su Yang was looking and spotted the familiar luxury car.

The car window rolled down to reveal Gu Chen’s handsome face. He greeted Song Fan with a friendly “Good afternoon, Miss Song.”

Song Fan responded with a brief greeting and was about to continue on her way when Gu Chen stopped her. “Miss Song, where are you heading? Let me give you a ride,” he offered.

He then gave Su Yang a look after saying that. Su Yang quickly reached out his hand to direct Song Fan. “Please, Miss Song.”

Song Fan had initially intended to decline the offer, but after a moment’s thought, she realized that she was unlikely to be followed anymore. She nodded and said, “Well then, I appreciate it.”

She entered the car and provided the driver with an address. Gu Chen handed her the coffee, and although Su Yang wanted to claim it was his, he decided to remain silent. The young master had already offered it, and contradicting him now would undermine his authority.

Song Fan accepted the coffee but didn’t drink it. She gazed out the window at the passing scenery, remaining silent. It was Gu Chen who initiated the conversation. “Miss Song, you look quite different today.”

Song Fan typically dress in casual, comfortable clothing without much attention to fashion. Nevertheless, she looked attractive in anything she wore.

“I’m in a good mood today, so I decided to change things up a bit,” Song Fan explained. She always had her suspicions about Gu Chen, so she chose not to disclose the fact that she had been followed.

However, Gu Chen didn’t see it that way. He believed that Song Fan’s change in appearance was due to a specific reason, even though she wasn’t sharing it with him.

As Song Fan remained tight-lipped, Gu Chen grew increasingly curious about her plans. He inquired, “What are your plans for later, Miss Song?”

With a hint of sarcasm, Song Fan retorted, “Since when did the CEO of the Gu Corporation become a household registry inspector?”

Gu Chen decided to drop the subject as he was not one to engage in pointless arguments. The remainder of their journey was shrouded in silence, leaving Su Yang to feel the oppressive atmosphere in the car.

Upon reaching their destination, Song Fan stepped out of the car and turned to Gu Chen with a smile. “Gu Hai will probably congratulate you by the time he meets you. Be sure not to be at a loss for words when that happens.”

Her words left Su Yang perplexed, but Gu Chen understood that Song Fan had likely done something to further fuel Second Uncle’s misconceptions..
