Chapter 68: Li Wenwen, Wang Shanshan, You've Gained Weight

In fact, Cao Kun did not doubt a single word of what the train attendant said.

Because, in his previous life, she was the very person murdered by Zhou Qiang.

Not just her, but also two other passengers who slept like logs and only woke up when the police carried Zhou Qiang off the train.

If Cao Kun hadn't happened to be there, all three of them would have been killed by Zhou Qiang tonight!

So, he truly had saved this long-legged attendant's life.

However, even when you save someone's life, when they express heartfelt gratitude, basic courtesy is still required.

Otherwise, it would seem a bit shameless.

"No, no, no, you're being too formal."

Cao Kun quickly clamped a cigarette between his lips and used both hands to help the attendant up from her ninety-degree bow.

"Look at you, why so polite? Giving such a deep bow. Besides, about the thanking part... didn't you kiss me too? I can't just let you kiss me for free."

Hearing this, the attendant's pretty face flushed instantly, and she looked thoroughly shy.

Cao Kun continued, "Well, since everything is sorted at the police station now, what are you going to do next? Head back to the bullet train, or...?"

"No, no, no," the attendant shook her head. "Our chief conductor heard about this and knew I was almost killed, so she just gave me half a month of paid leave to relax, calm my nerves, and take a proper break."

"Really?" Cao Kun smiled. "Half a month of paid leave? Your company has great benefits. Where are you planning to go?"

"This..." The attendant hesitated for a moment before saying, "I don't know either. But right now, I definitely need to find a place to stay first. In the middle of the night like this, I can't just wander the streets. Um, Mr. Cao, if I remember correctly, you're getting off at Xia County station, right? You must be a local?"

Cao Kun smiled and pointed at her. "Good memory! That's right, I'm from Xia County. Let me tell you, just walk straight ahead, make a left turn, go another two hundred meters, and there's the Orchid Grand Hotel."

"Although it looks a bit ordinary, it's already the best hotel here in our small county."

"Besides, I've stayed there before, and their hygiene and cleanliness are actually quite good."

Hearing this, the attendant shyly twisted the hem of her uniform skirt and looked somewhat embarrassed. "Then... Mr. Cao, would you be willing to go there with me? I... I might be a little scared by myself."

This...

Looking at the attendant's shy expression—avoiding his gaze—along with her fair, slender long legs, Cao Kun hesitated in his heart for a mere 0.0352 seconds before making up his mind.

To hell with Wang Shanshan!

How could she ever compare to a long-legged beauty?

"It would be my absolute honor!" Cao Kun said with a deadpan, serious expression. "We people from Xia County might be poor and not very worldly, but we are definitely hospitable. Since you've come to Xia County, as a local, it's my responsibility to make sure you aren't scared when you sleep. Let's go!"

With that, Cao Kun reached out his large hand in a very matter-of-fact manner.

Seeing this, the attendant bit her lip with a smile and placed her soft, delicate hand into his palm.

At first, the attendant was still a bit reserved.

However, after walking a few dozen meters, she took the initiative to let go of Cao Kun's hand and instead linked her arm through his.

After walking another few dozen meters, she had already rested her head against Cao Kun's shoulder.

...

The next day at noon, twelve-thirty!

Cao Kun walked out of the Orchid Grand Hotel.

After taking a taxi to a restaurant and ordering a few dishes, he quickly took a taxi back to the hotel.

The long-legged attendant's name was Li Wenwen. She was twenty-three years old and working her first year as a bullet train attendant.

Because Li Wenwen had never been to Xia County before and had no idea what local delicacies it offered, Cao Kun had made a trip to what he considered the best specialty restaurant and ordered some dishes for her.

The reason he didn't bring Li Wenwen directly to the restaurant was because she wasn't walking very comfortably right now.

One-thirty in the afternoon!

After having lunch with Li Wenwen in the hotel room, taking advantage of her afternoon nap, Cao Kun left the hotel and went home.

Fortunately!

Although he hadn't been around for the past few days, the place wasn't left in a terrible mess by Wang Shanshan. The cleanliness was acceptable, except for a rather large pile of takeout bags.

In fact, judging purely by the quantity, it wasn't hard to deduce that Wang Shanshan hadn't cooked a single meal, living entirely on takeout.

And she hadn't ordered cheap food, either!

Things like grilled fish sets costing seventy or eighty yuan each.

Nourishing beauty porridges costing over a hundred yuan each, and so on.

It was clear she spared no expense when it came to herself.

Regarding this, aside from telling her to take the trash down, Cao Kun didn't offer any opinions.

Anyway, she had money now, and she was spending her own money, so let her splurge!

Time flew by, and four hours passed in the blink of an eye!

Six o'clock in the evening!

Cao Kun walked out of the bedroom. While straightening his clothes in front of the full-length mirror in the living room, he said, "Wang Shanshan, you need to start watching your diet. You can't keep stuffing yourself like this."

"What's wrong?" Wang Shanshan's voice drifted out from the bedroom.

"You're getting fat. I could actually pinch a little flab on your waist."

Actually, Cao Kun didn't care all that much whether Wang Shanshan had fat on her waist.

After all, she was the woman he wanted revenge on; if she turned into a massive three- or four-hundred-pound woman that nobody wanted, that would be even more amusing.

However, following Wang Shanshan's line, there was a bigger fish waiting for Cao Kun to catch, so he couldn't let her figure completely ruin just yet.

At least for now, Wang Shanshan still needed to maintain her slender waist.

Otherwise, in the event that he failed to hook that big fish, Cao Kun would have to redo his entire plan, which was a waste of brainpower.

The moment Cao Kun finished speaking, Wang Shanshan came running out of the bedroom in her nightgown, barefoot, pattering rapidly across the floor.

She stared fixedly into Cao Kun's eyes, panic written all over her face. "Cao Kun, you're not lying to me, are you? I... I actually have little rolls of fat on my waist that you can pinch?"

Cao Kun nodded with utter seriousness. "I'd be a dog if I lied to you. Last time I couldn't really pinch much, but just a few days later, one pinch and there it was."

"You haven't even found your rich second-generation boyfriend yet, you can't let yourself go like this. You have to manage your figure! Otherwise, which rich second-generation guy is going to like a girl with fat rolls on her waist?"

"In this regard, you should learn from Aunt Bai. Aunt Bai's slender waist is a true slender waist, not an ounce of extra fat."

"Alright, I won't be coming back tonight. Fix your own dinner."

With that, Cao Kun lit a cigarette and strode out of the house.

As for Wang Shanshan, her mind was now completely consumed by the thunderous revelation that she was growing fat on her waist. She didn't care at all whether Cao Kun was spending the night away.

In fact, it wasn't until five or six minutes after Cao Kun had already left that she suddenly snapped to her senses.

"Huh? Wait a minute... how did he know that woman doesn't have any extra fat on her waist?"
