Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend

Without realizing it, winter has arrived.

However, many fashion-loving girls refuse to wrap themselves in thick clothes, even for their legs, opting instead for thicker tights paired with skirts—all to show off their best figure to the opposite sex.

Of course, our classmate Xiaofan is quite robust. Even if he stands shirtless at the door, he feels no chill.

In the living room, three people sit on the sofa, two women staring at Xiaofan's face. Unbelievable—so unbelievable.

"Have you seen enough?" Xiaofan glanced at the two, knowing his identity was already exposed to them, without intending to hide anything further.

"Shen Zhifan, can you still turn back to the way you were before?" After staring for a long while, Li Sisi still felt a bit uneasy.

"This was always me; why change? But you guys are really impressive, managing to find this place just from a single letter," Xiaofan said softly.

"We just came to see if you're still alive, but from your expression, it seems you're not exactly welcoming us,"

"Ah... you're a big celebrity, miss. My current identity is just an ordinary university student, and you two come over without even giving a heads-up..." Xiaofan wasn't unwelcoming; it was just unexpected, a bit abrupt.

"Heads-up? We just wanted to see who you're living with. Besides, we specially came to visit you, yet you're always thinking of Liu Siyan, knowing we're in the Capital City but not coming to see us—it disappoints Sister Feng so much because she thinks so highly of you."

"Hey, Sisi, don't drag me into this." Feng Feifei immediately clarified.

Upon hearing this, Xiaofan glanced at Feng Feifei with a warm smile. He knew she wouldn't mind, and Feng Feifei knew their connection had long been separate; who knows when they'd meet again. Nonetheless, she still couldn't resist wanting to see him again.

"So, are you both doing well?"

"Hmm... well..."

"Well my foot! Ever since coming to the Capital City, I've been taking on gigs every day—shooting ads, accepting sponsorships—it's driving me crazy. I just wanted to sing and go back. Now I'm stuck with all this work, it's infuriating."

Before Feng Feifei could speak, Li Sisi was already rambling on.

The slightly flushed little face, the delicate little nose, and the cherry-like little mouth babbling away—quite melodious.

Only in front of Xiaofan and Feng Feifei does she completely shed her superstar airs and reveals the demeanor she should have as a young girl.

"Earning money and still complaining? Must've made a lot during this trip to the Capital City." Xiaofan smiled.

"Am I short of money? We came primarily to see you." Li Sisi, quick to speak, immediately told Xiaofan: "Of course, earning money was just incidental."

Indeed, Li Sisi hadn't expected to stay in the Capital City for so long. She thought about finding Xiaofan after singing, but who knew that announcing her whereabouts would delay her schedule by over ten days—truly infuriating.

"Hmm, thank you both."

"Just a thanks?"

"Hmm?"

"Well, forget me, but Sister Fei has been constantly thinking about you, talking about you every day, saying she wants to come to the Capital City to find you as soon as possible—she can't wait even a moment..."

"Sisi, you're just spouting nonsense." Feng Feifei really couldn't do anything about this guy.

"Hmm, I know Sister Fei misses me, but she wouldn't talk about it—she'd keep it in her heart."

With that, the two exchanged glances and shared gentle smiles. No words were needed; both understood.

"Alright, Zhifan, are you and your little girlfriend doing well now?" Feng Feifei casually asked.

"Hmm, we've reconciled, and I should thank you both too."

"Hmmph, I said we shouldn't have told Liu Siyan the truth. Let her keep hating you. Hmmph..." Li Sisi was still a bit resentful about the matter.

"Sisi, don't keep spouting nonsense. Even if we hadn't told her, as long as they truly love each other, I believe there's nothing that could stand in their way. Hey, Zhifan, is your health alright?"

"I'm fine now. Everything's good."

"That's good."

"Hey, Shen Zhifan, we originally planned to come find you after singing, but now something's come up on our end—can you come back and be our bodyguard for a few days?" At this moment, Li Sisi suddenly made this unexpected request.

Bodyguard?

This was how Xiaofan first encountered the two—back then it was a matter of necessity, but now...

"Why, are you two being threatened again?" Xiaofan slowly stood up, moving to the fridge: "Tea? Coffee? Soft drink? Juice? Or wine?"

"Soft drink."

"Juice, thank you..."

"It's not about threats, just we've been frequenting public places lately, and I'd feel more at ease with you taking care of Sisi. However, if you're unavailable, that's okay too..." Feng Feifei spoke calmly: "If you have difficulty, let me know, I can understand."

Feng Feifei speaking up meant she genuinely needed Xiaofan's help, without any necessity she would never ask.

It's just, this time, Xiaofan misunderstood.

This time Feng Feifei spoke up not just because she needed Xiaofan's help—she also hoped they could spend more time together while he protected them, considering there were only a few days left in the schedule.

"What about Liu and the others?" Xiaofan continued asking.

"Liu Peng? They're here too, right outside the door. But they don't know we came looking for you, and seeing you like this, he might not even recognize you."

"The bodyguards we brought from XG are just Liu Peng and the others. Although we've contacted a security company here in the Capital City, without a firm cornerstone we still feel uneasy—especially in these final few days," Feng Feifei remarked again.

"I do have time... but..."

"But what? If there's difficulty, just say it—I'll understand." Feng Feifei didn't want to make things too difficult for Xiaofan, if it wasn't possible, they'd let it go.

"My power is gone. If something really dangerous happens, I'm afraid I won't be able to rush forward immediately to protect you." Xiaofan spoke plainly, as this needed clarification—protecting someone isn't child's play, nothing can be left to chance.

"What?"

The two glanced at each other in shock upon hearing this. His power was gone? Did this mean the once invincible, dashing Shen Zhifan would never appear again?

"Is it because of the aftereffects from last time's incident?" Feng Feifei asked softly.

"Yes."

"Zhifan, if it weren't for saving me that day, would you..."

"Sis, what are you saying, compared to you, what does a little power mean?"

Indeed, what does power mean? This guy jumped alongside risking his life back then.

Thinking of this, Feng Feifei's eyes slightly dampened. Eminent, resolute—that matters not. As long as his heart remains that of Shen Zhifan, it's enough.
