Cultivation Pet Shop-Chapter 839 No Good Deed Is Unpunished

Lin Fan just waved his hand and said, "Who I am isn't important. I was just passing by and saw that someone needed help, nothing more, nothing less."

Lin Fan ignored the boy's looks of awe and took Xin'er's hand as he said, "Let's go Xin'er, we still have other things to do."

Seeing that they were about to leave, the boy suddenly came forward to grab Lin Fan by the leg and said, "Wait, please don't go! If you go now, I won't be able to save my little sister!"

When Xin'er heard this, her eyes turned soft and she also looked at Lin Fan with big pleading eyes as she said, "Big brother Lin, how about we listen to what he has to say? We shouldn't just leave him alone like this."

Lin Fan looked at her and couldn't help shaking his head again.

But it wasn't as if he could say no to her…

So he turned to look in Dongfang Ming's direction for help, but all he got was a helpless look as well. Dongfang Ming spread his hands and just shook his head as if saying that he couldn't do anything either.

Lin Fan cursed him under his breath since it was clear that he was having fun at his expense. However, since he was the one that had gone along with Xin'er's whims, he couldn't stop now.

So with one more sigh, he said, "Alright, we'll listen to what he has to say."

The boy's eyes lit up when he heard this and he looked at Xin'er with a grateful look. However, when his eyes turned to Xin'er, all he could do was look at her with a stunned look.

That was because he had been completely smited by Xin'er's beauty…

He just stood there in a daze, even forgetting to breathe as he looked right at her with a blush on his face.

Xin'er could see the strangeness with him, so she reached out a hand after seeing his red face and she said, "Are you alright? Do you have a fever?"

But before she could reach out to touch his forehead, Lin Fan stepped in between the two of them.

He could also see the look on the boy's face and he wouldn't let it happen.

Xin'er was surprised to see Lin Fan suddenly standing in front of her, so she asked, "Big brother Lin, what's wrong?"

Lin Fan had been facing Xin'er, but he casually turned to the boy as he said, "Let me take a look at him instead, I'm better at this kind of stuff."

Xin'er gave a nod when she heard this since she believed that Lin Fan could do anything.

The boy heard this and was about to say something, but then he swallowed his words when Lin Fan's cold gaze fell onto him.

Lin Fan said with a smile that didn't have any warmth in his eyes at all, "Now stand still and let me take a look."

He then pretended to look over the boy, but what he was actually doing was poking the boy in places where it ached.

Even if the pill had cured most of his external injuries, there were still internal injuries below the surfaces that hadn't been cured yet. After all, the pill that Lin Fan gave the boy wasn't a top grade pill.

He wasn't going to waste a top grade pill on some random kid, so he just gave him a regular pill. Of course, a regular pill for someone like Lin Fan was considered a top grade pill for someone like the boy.

That was just their difference in world views.

The boy's eyes teared up from being poked all over by Lin Fan, but as he sneaked peeks at Xin'er, he didn't make a single sound to show that he was in pain.

Lin Fan couldn't help giving a sigh when he saw this.

It seemed like no good deed went unpunished…

The hero saving a beauty was a common trope in his previous life, but it was a common trope for a reason.

That was because it was effective!

This was a common trope because it worked most of the time!

Even now, this trope was bearing its ugly head.

Well instead of calling it the hero saving the beauty, it was better to say that it was the beauty saving the…No, this kid really couldn't be considered a hero with the way he looked.

But it was clear by the way that he looked at Xin'er what he felt towards her.

Luckily Lin Fan didn't see the same look in Xin'er's eyes or he would have taken care of this kid right then and there. 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

He wanted to set his eyes on Xin'er, come back in a million years!

He also heard Dongfang Ming secretly laughing at his misfortune on the side. He couldn't help seeing this neatly dressed man in a completely different light.

It seemed that under that neat out exterior, there was quite the trickster that liked playing jokes…but he did like this personality better than the stiff one from before.

This was more the personality that he liked.

So he also secretly glared at Dongfang Ming and whispered, "Watch how I get you back later." f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋ｎ૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

Dongfang Ming revealed a bitter smile, but the smile in his eyes wasn't bitter at all.

He also had a new impression of Lin Fan and he quite liked this one better than the stiff one from before.

Through this accident, they were slowly getting closer to one another.

After pretending to check the boy for a few minutes, Lin Fan finally felt like he had vented his anger and said, "He's fine, there's nothing wrong with him."

Xin'er let out a sigh of relief before saying to the boy, "Isn't that good?"

The boy nodded in a daze before suddenly remembering something and saying, "We can't waste any time here, we have to go save my little sister."

He grabbed Lin Fan by the arm and started pulling him, but Lin Fan wouldn't budge at all.

The boy turned back to look at Lin Fan with an anxious and pleading look, but Lin Fan wasn't moved by this at all. Instead, it was Xin'er's look that moved him.

Still he didn't move as he looked right back at her and said, "We don't even know what happened yet, how can we rush into this?"

Xin'er looked like she realized something before she nodded along in agreement. She looked over at the boy and said, "This big brother, how about we calm down first?"

It was completely different when Xin'er spoke. When the boy heard this, he no longer tried to rush along and obediently stood there.

Lin Fan couldn't help glaring at the boy again, but this time the boy didn't flinch as he stared right back at Lin Fan.

So Lin Fan asked, "Tell me your story and what happened to your little sister."

The boy had a slightly unwilling look since he didn't want to do what Lin Fan told him to do, but he had no other choice, so he began telling his story.

It was quite a common story in fact. This boy was an orphan and so was his "little sister", even though she wasn't really his biological little sister and they only met by chance.

The men who had beaten him up were from a loan shark that the boy had borrowed some money from and they were beating him up because he couldn't pay his loan. At the same time, they had also taken away his little sister to sell since they couldn't get their money from him.

As for the reason why he borrowed money from them in the first place, it was because he needed money to buy medicine for his little sister.

Lin Fan had heard so many stories like this that he was almost tired of listening to them, but that wasn't the case with Xin'er. For someone like her who had grown up sheltered by her grandfather, she didn't know about this kind of stuff.

In fact, since his situation was similar to her and her grandfather's, it actually invoked even more sympathy in her.

So Xin'er turned to Lin Fan and asked, "Big brother Lin, can we help him?"

Lin Fan shook his head before saying, "Xin'er, if we help everyone we meet, do you think that we can help everyone in the world?"

'

Xin'er lowered her head when she heard this and didn't say anything.

But Lin Fan then said, "However, we'll help him this time since we've already helped him. Good people don't stop helping just because things get hard, understand?" After saying this, he patted Xin'er on the head since he could see that she was sad over this matter.

Xin'er's face immediately lit up as she looked up at Lin Fan and said, "Un! I know that big brother Lin is the best!"

The boy saw all this and couldn't help feeling his heart sink. When he turned to look at Lin Fan, there was a challenging and aggressive look in his eyes.

But Lin Fan didn't care as he looked back at the boy with a complacent look.

From an outsider's point of view, it was almost as if there were two children fighting here.

However, after playing with the boy for a bit, Lin Fan picked him up and said, "Alright, stop playing around and bring us to loan shark den."

He walked over to the carriage and asked Dongfang Ming, "I'm sure that you don't mind, do you?"

Dongfang Ming just gave a sigh and spread his hands as he said, "Can I even say no at this point?"

Lin Fan just answered with a smile.
