?39: Chapter 039: The Shameless Buyer is Ning Fan 39: Chapter 039: The Shameless Buyer is Ning Fan Ning Fan was heading to the company when the figure of a person in front caught his eye: Lan Kexin.

    Clad in a sharp, professional suit dress that hugged her delicate curves, Lan Kexin exuded a more mature charm.

    She suddenly stopped at the corner.

    As Ning Fan had been watching Lan Kexin from behind, he unexpectedly bumped into her when she abruptly stopped.

    Lan Kexin thought to herself, she must have encountered a sleazy man,, who would dare to behave like this in the company?

    She immediately turned around to look back.

    “Kexin, don’t stop suddenly on a bend,, it’s easy to cause an accident,”

    Before Lan Kexin could get angry, Ning Fan took the initiative to chastise her.

    Upon seeing Ning Fan, Lan Kexin retorted with a disgruntled laugh, “Ning Fan, you don’t even have a car,, yet you’re lecturing me?”

    “I’m quite the experienced driver.

    How about I test my skills in your car next time?”

    “…”

    Lan Kexin couldn’t be bothered to talk to Ning Fan and headed toward the security department;, she had some matters to discuss with Zhu Xuetao.

    However,

    she still couldn’t understand who Ning Fan really was; seemingly frivolous, yet possessing potent power,, surely he also had many hidden stories.

    Like that Jiuye, and his connection to the Huo Family.

    “Ning Fan, can you not follow me?”

    Lan Kexin glared at Ning Fan beside her.

    Ning Fan helplessly said, “Shouldn’t it be you following me?

    I’m headed to the security department for work, while you definitely want to feast your eyes on my beauty.”

    “Just you?”

    Lan Kexin gave Ning Fan a serious look,, and suddenly felt a bit dazed – dressed in that suit,, Ning Fan seemed to have become slightly more handsome…

    And that suit was definitely not cheap.

    “Ning Fan, who exactly are you?”

    “Kexin, are you stunned by my handsomeness?

    How about room 401 at the hotel tonight, double the price!”

    “Let’s pretend I never asked!”

    Lan Kexin’s face turned bright red; this guy intentionally brought up the events from a few days ago.

    She wished she could kick Ning Fan away, but even Zhu Xuetao couldn’t handle this man’s physical prowess…

    Stepping briskly on her high heels, she quickened her pace to widen the gap between them and Ning Fan.

    Ning Fan was definitely doing this on purpose, trying to use this method to dodge her questions.

    But the question buzzed in Lan Kexin’s mind like a little bee,, and she realized she couldn’t shake off the shadow that was Ning Fan.

    …

    After spending the whole day in the security department, apart from playing games and strolling around the company,, there was nothing else to do, and Ning Fan mostly focused on observing Xu Ruolan’s situation.

    After all, he came to the company to help Xu Ruolan identify the culprits behind the scenes.

    It wasn’t to be a security guard here.

    After work…

    The beautiful CEO Xu Ruolan personally called him.

    Her voice was still very cold “Come down, let’s go for dinner at a hotel.”

    Ning Fan said, “Just the two of us?

    Isn’t that inappropriate?”

    Xu Ruolan was furious,, remembering how Ning Fan had refused to join her in the car the other day; this guy had been annoying her day after day!

    However, considering Ning Fan had saved her life the previous night,, the Xu family still owed him a meal, and she insisted on treating him.

    She said, “No refusal!”

    “Alright, alright, you’re the boss, I’m the follower; whatever you say goes.

    It’s obviously more comfortable to lie down than to move around,” Ning Fan made another rogue comment.

    …

    In a five-star hotel in Zhonghai City, inside the Rongjin Hotel.

    When Ning Fan saw the members of the Xu Family, he immediately frowned, “Weren’t we supposed to have a dinner for two, why are there so many people?”

    The banquet was already set, and the Xu Family members were all there. Sёarch* The n??el Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

    The Family Head of the Xu Family warmly greeted Ning Fan to sit next to him.

    Xu Rongfei pulled Xu Ruolan to sit between her and Xu Xiaoqing.

    As for Xu Family’s second uncle, he seemed to greet him with a friendly smile, but it was all for show.

    Ning Fan instinctively took another look at Xu Family’s second uncle.

    He thought that the incident that occurred last night was not accidental, but the work of someone wealthy with designs on Xu Ruolan and Xu Corporation.

    There were many suspects, and this devious Xu Family’s second uncle was very likely the mastermind behind the scenes.

    Ning Fan sat next to the Family Head of the Xu Family.

    The Family Head, with a beaming smile, warmly said, “We owe Mr.

    Ning a lot; Lan’er is alive thanks to him.

    Mr.

    Ning is the savior of Xu Corporation, and a benefactor to our Xu Family—we toast to him…”

    Xu Xiaoqing also smiled and said, “Brother Ning is amazing!

    Cheers.”

    Xu Rongfei slightly smiled and casually glanced at Ning Fan, a trace of something unusual flickering in her eyes.

    “Mr.

    Ning, not only is your medical technique great, but your skills are also impressive.

    With you by Lan’er’s side, I can be at ease.”

    In Xu Ruolan’s mind, she thought, “How can I be at ease with this guy by my side?”

    Ning Fan did not think too much and simply accepted the Xu Family’s gratitude one by one.

    After a while, the Family Head continued, “The attacker has tried to take Ruolan’s life several times, but we, the Xu Family, are not to be trifled with.

    Once we find the murderer, we must make him pay back double!”

    Everyone nodded in agreement.

    At that moment, Ning Fan purposefully glanced at Xu Family’s second uncle, whose face twitched and remained expressionless.

    The Family Head returned to his seat and leaned toward Ning Fan’s ear after a while, “What do you think about last night’s incident?”

    Ning Fan heard him, stared at the wine in his cup, and said nothing.

    Xu Family’s second uncle’s normally expressionless face suddenly became animated; he glanced at Ning Fan, intentionally or unintentionally.

    Through the wine in his cup, Xu Family’s second uncle’s face reflected in it seemed somewhat faint, surely he was feeling very guilty at that moment.

    He shook his wine glass slightly and then laughed heartily.

    “I don’t have much opinion on the matter.

    To find the murderer, now’s not the right time; we need to wait a bit longer.”

    The Family Head heard this and nodded his head too.

    It was hard to unravel the threads of this matter in a short time; the priority was to ensure his daughter’s safety.

    “Mr.

    Ning, then I must trouble you to take good care of Lan’er.”

    “Of course.”

    Finding the murderer was secondary; Xu Ruolan was his primary purpose for getting into the Xu Family, and everything started from that point…

    “Family Head, don’t worry.

    I will certainly get close to Miss Xu, ensuring her safety for the rest of her life.”

    The Family Head didn’t find anything amiss and laughed heartily, “That’s good.

    As long as Mr.

    Ning is here, the murderer won’t succeed in any way.”

    Ning Fan felt that the Family Head was feigning ignorance while being fully aware, but he rather enjoyed it this way.

    He glanced at Xu Family’s second uncle again, whose expression looked quite unpleasant as he avoided his gaze.

    Xu Family’s second uncle cleared his throat slightly, poured himself another glass of wine, and didn’t dare look toward Ning Fan.

    Xu Ruolan grew increasingly curious—what was Ning Fan discussing with her father?

    The glances Ning Fan occasionally cast her way gave her an uneasy premonition.

    It was as though the two men had negotiated and sold her, with her father being the seller and the shameless Ning Fan the buyer!

    But only Ning Fan and the Family Head knew the true reality of the situation.

    The Family Head was a very wise man.

    From his attitude toward Ning Fan, it was evident that he had acute judgment—knowing how many people wished to ingratiate themselves with Ning Fan but found no opportunity to do so.
