Jiang City, Feng'an Garden Community, Villa 123
A man was holding a calendar in his hands, turning it tremblingly, and murmuring unceasingly: "October 23, October 23, three days, going to die, going to die, going to die..."
This slightly neurotic man was the owner of this house, Ye Bufan.
Or the former Ye Bufan, now... still Ye Bufan.
But this Bufan is different from that Bufan.
The present Ye Bufan was not a person of this world. He was originally a book lover living on the Blue Planet.
Just an hour ago, Ye Bufan was still in his little nest looking at his phone and reading a novel called "Arrogant Villain: The Rise of the Rich Second Generation".
But the next second, a thunderbolt flashed by, and he was transported to the world in this book.
He even became the protagonist's father.
When Ye Bufan figured out his situation a little, he immediately panicked. You should know that the protagonist started out as an orphan.
Flipping the calendar again, goodness, there were only three days left before his sacrificial day to heaven.
The so-called parents sacrificing to heaven, the power is limitless.
The protagonist's mother had already died in childbirth when giving birth to Ye Feng. Left with Ye Bufan this cheap dad, he would also die in a car accident three days later.
At this point, the protagonist would be free of worldly cares, achieving the strongest template for urban novels, with both parents dead.
If it was the original Ye Bufan, he might have loved deeply and been willing to sacrifice his small self to accomplish his good adult son.
But the present Ye Bufan was just Ye Feng's cheap dad, so he was naturally unwilling to sit and wait for his doom.
On the balcony, a Hua Zi cigarette burned slowly.
Ye Bufan didn't like smoking. He just felt that at this time, in this situation, there had to be such a Hua Zi cigarette.
When the ashes fell, Ye Bufan finally made up his mind. Run, he must run. Friends may die but the path lives on.
Anyway Ye Feng could live well without him. But if he didn't run now, he would have no life left.
While Ye Feng was not back yet, Ye Bufan fiercely threw the cigarette butt in his hand onto the ground and stomped on it hard twice.
[You have successfully purchased the 20-20 flight on October 20, 2022. Passenger Ye Bufan, scheduled to depart from Blue Sky Terminal at 9 pm. Please arrive at the entry gate 120 minutes in advance for boarding]
The last-minute plane ticket had been purchased, and his excited heart and trembling hands gradually calmed down.
Although just his cheap son, but still only ten years old after all, Ye Bufan didn't feel right to just run away without explanation.
"Hello, is this Jiecheng Housekeeping Service Center? Can I subscribe annually?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it's very urgent. Immediately, money is not a problem. Start working today, okay, okay, I'll wait for you at home."
Jiecheng Housekeeping was the largest and best reviewed housekeeping company in Jiang City, with a wide variety of services.
Their slogan was, as long as you pay enough overtime, they don't care if you work them like oxen and horses.
It just so happened that Ye Bufan also had some assets, so the cost of hiring a nanny was naturally not a big deal.
In less than half an hour, there was a knock at the door outside.
"Hello, is anyone home? I'm from Jiecheng Housekeeping Services."
Ye Bufan walked quickly to the door and opened it. He saw a young girl standing timidly outside, dressed simply but beautifully.
"Are you the nanny sent by Jiecheng Housekeeping Services?"
Ye Bufan's words were a little hesitant. This girl was really too young, quite different from the usual middle-aged nannies, but more like a maid from a wealthy family.
The girl nodded, "Yes, my name is Yu Liling."
Ye Bufan frowned and said, "Miss Yu Liling, may I ask if you are of age? I don't hire child labor here."
Yu Liling took out her ID card and handed it to Ye Bufan, "I'm sixteen this year."
Sixteen, a minor huh.
Although she was already of working age, but...
Seeing that Ye Bufan was silent for a long time, Yu Liling became a little anxious. This was a big opportunity specially arranged for her by Sister Du. If she missed it, who knows when she would encounter such a generous employer again.
So she hurriedly said, "Sir, please rest assured, our company is a formal enterprise, there will absolutely be no problems. Although I am young, I have a lot of experience taking care of children. My younger siblings at home are all taken care of by me. Please give me a try, if I'm no good I'll leave on my own."
It was obvious that the young girl really needed this job. And since he was also in a hurry to escape, as long as it wasn't illegal, so be it.
Thinking of this, Ye Bufan slowly nodded and said, "I guess you also know my requirements here. Annual contract, with accommodation provided. 30,000 a month, no days off all year round. Just take care of my son's diet and daily life. And take care of miscellaneous things like parent-teacher meetings and tuition payments. Of course I will pay you on time, no problem with all this right?"
These were agreed upon beforehand, so Yu Liling naturally had no objection.
Ye Bufan thought for a while, and added: "One more thing, when my son comes back, just tell him that I died in an accident."
This remark shocked Yu Liling. What kind of person wishes for their own misfortune? Could it be that this man has committed a crime and wants to escape?
"This... sir, this wasn't in our agreed terms. I can't agree to this."
"Add 10,000, 40,000 a month."
Ye Bufan was very calm. For poor girls like this, just pressuring with money does the trick.
"Sir, I can't..."
After hesitating for a moment, Yu Liling still struggled a little.
"Add another 10,000, 50,000 a month. And I can also sponsor your schooling, enroll you in the same high school as my son. It'd be good for taking care of him too."
Ye Feng attended the aristocratic private school in Jiang City, with elementary, middle and high schools integrated. The teachers were all experts in their fields, not to mention the facilities. Just the tuition was a bit expensive.
This time Yu Liling didn't hesitate again. She loved learning herself. If not for her family circumstances, how could she take on such heavy burdens at such a young age?
Now there was such an opportunity right in front of her eyes, she naturally didn't want to miss it.
Seeing that Yu Liling agreed, Ye Bufan didn't drag it out. He handed her a printed contract.
Yu Liling checked the terms, confirmed there were no issues, then signed her name.
Taking the contract and some necessities, Ye Bufan handed the keys and a bank card to Yu Liling, and finally instructed: "Remember what I said, just say that I'm gone. There's 100,000 in this card, it's extra money, count it as living expenses. I'll continue depositing into it every month. This is my phone. Unless it's a life or death situation, don't call me."
Having already agreed to the stranger requests, Yu Liling of course wouldn't oppose such a small matter.
Seeing everything was arranged, Ye Bufan didn't linger. He hurriedly took his things and embarked on the journey to Country A.
