Rebirth at the Start: This Fate is Too Explosive!

Chapter 3 An Awkward Situation

"Okay, I'll call right away."

Ye Fan realized that Liu Ruyan's condition was becoming increasingly strange.

Her face was flushed, her breathing was rapid, her eyes were unfocused, and her body was trembling slightly, clearly indicating that she was severely affected by the medication.

He decisively waved and flagged down a taxi: "Auntie, let me help you inside."

"Okay, thank you so much, Ye Fan. I don't know what would have happened without you."

Liu Ruyan's voice was weak and indistinct, filled with obvious fear and discomfort.

Ye Fan carefully helped her into the back seat. Liu Ruyan glanced at the driver and saw that he was a middle-aged, lecherous man. A strong sense of unease and panic welled up in her heart. She said, "Ye Fan, please help me take Auntie home. Auntie is feeling very, very unwell."

"Okay," Ye Fan said without hesitation, immediately getting into the back seat and closing the car door.

Liu Ruyan felt his presence, and her tense nerves relaxed slightly, but the uncontrollable heat and indescribable discomfort inside her body surged like a tide, causing her to curl up in pain, her fingers digging tightly into the edge of the seat.

"Driver, please drive as fast as you can to Yulongwan Residential Area, thank you." Liu Ruyan tried her best to keep her voice steady despite her discomfort.

The driver glanced at the rearview mirror and said casually, "The road conditions are like this. If I can go fast, I will. If I can't, there's nothing I can do."

Seeing this, Ye Fan didn't say a word and directly pulled out a hundred-yuan bill and handed it to the person in front: "Here's a hundred for you. No need to use the meter, hurry up."

"Okay! Hold on tight!" As soon as the driver saw the money, he immediately changed his tune, chuckled, and stepped on the gas, speeding up the car.

"Auntie, hang in there, we'll be home soon," Ye Fan said softly, his brows furrowed.

He observed Liu Ruyan's flushed cheeks, dazed eyes, and slightly rapid breathing. Based on her previous experiences, he was fairly certain that she had been given something unclean by that scarred man.

At this moment, Liu Ruyan's consciousness became blurred under the influence of the drug.

......

Liu Ruyan knew that Ye Fan had come of age because Ye Fan had recently turned 18, and her daughter had attended the celebration.

Ye Fan was slightly taken aback, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant.

On his very first day of rebirth, he encountered such a difficult situation? This development was completely beyond his expectations.

This development is too dramatic.

The driver in front seemed to sense the strange atmosphere in the back seat through his rearview mirror. He chuckled knowingly and found a quiet, deserted intersection to bring the car to a smooth stop.

He deftly unbuckled his seatbelt, opened the door, and got out of the car in one swift motion: "Young man, three hundred yuan, not a penny less! I'm going to have a smoke, you guys... chat slowly."

After saying that, he tactfully walked away, leaned against a lamppost, and lit a cigarette.

As the car door closed, the cramped space instantly became quiet.

The sense of security that isolated her from the outside world, along with the full onslaught of the drug's effects, instantly shattered Liu Ruyan's last shred of rationality.

..........

Ye Fan took out three hundred yuan and handed it to the driver, saying, "Continue to Yulongwan Residential Area."

"Alright, let's go."

After a while.

"We've arrived at Yulongwan Residential Area," the driver said.

Liu Ruyan hurriedly opened the car door and got out, saying, "Ye Fan, Auntie is going back first. Take care on your way."

She ran into the residential area in shame as soon as she finished speaking.

"Driver, just take me to the Xin Nanfeng Convenience Store in Yue Ting Garden." Ye Fan shook his head.

"Okay, I'll be there in ten minutes."

After saying that, the driver stepped on the gas pedal to the floor.

-----------------

Liu Ruyan jogged back to the apartment building, leaned against the cold wall, panting heavily, her body still trembling slightly.

The completely out-of-control and excruciating experience she had just had in the car kept flashing through her mind like a nightmare, and a strong sense of shame and lingering fear almost overwhelmed her.

My God, she actually behaved like that in front of her daughter's classmates!

Still in the taxi!

And throughout the entire process... she was completely powerless, like a puppet on a string...

Thinking of these things, her cheeks burned even hotter, and tears almost welled up in her eyes.

"Liu Ruyan, Liu Ruyan... what kind of mess is this..." She covered her face in anguish, regret and self-blame surging like a tide.

however.

Beneath the extreme shame and fear, a deeper sense of physical exhaustion stemming from the strong effects of the drugs, and the relief of surviving a close call, intertwined.

When she was most helpless and out of control, Ye Fan did not push her away, but did his best to help her and protect her safety. This sense of responsibility and protection made her feel an indescribable warmth and a complex sense of security in her despair.

She shook her head vigorously, trying to shake off these chaotic feelings.

"No, no, there absolutely can't be a next time! That's Yan Ning's classmate!" she said sternly to herself.

But another voice emerged: "Luckily...luckily it was him...at least he..."

Thinking about her earlier loss of composure and Ye Fan's... calm acceptance and even subtle dominance, her face flushed again, but a ripple of emotion stirred inexplicably in her heart, and even the corners of her mouth unconsciously curved into a tiny arc that she herself did not notice.
