If Zhang Bo still can't spot the trick in this, he might as well jump into the Huangpu River.
"Are you using Qigong to heal from a distance?"
Just as Ning Fan was about to explain, he quickly nodded and said, "Yes, exactly like that."
Zhang Bo sighed, "You've worked hard, my brother."
"It's nothing."
Taking this opportunity, Ning Fan continued to talk about the ways of maintaining health.
Seeing Ning Fan's pale face, Zhang Bo gratefully said, "Don't worry, brother, I won't go astray again next ti."
On the way out of the airport, just as they were discussing where to go for a al, Zhang Bo's phone rang.
Ning Fan was a bit puzzled, "Strange, who would call him?"
In the week they had been together, Ning Fan had never seen Zhang Bo receive a call.
Just as Zhang Bo said, he basically had no friends.
"I got it, I'll be right back."
Seeing Zhang Bo hang up the phone with a frown, Ning Fan asked with concern, "Brother Bo, is everything okay?"
Considering it involved a friend's privacy, Ning Fan didn't eavesdrop.
If his previous cultivation level were still present, it would have been hard not to overhear at such a close distance.
"Nothing. Just so business matters."
Upon hearing this, Ning Fan nodded. Although Zhang Bo's brow was furrowed, he didn't seem overly tense, indicating there wasn't anything unsolvable.
"Brother, I'm afraid I'll have to let you down."
Ning Fan realized, "Brother Bo, are you leaving now?"
Zhang Bo smiled wryly, "Yes, a small trouble ca up."
Ning Fan hesitated, "Well... Brother Bo, if you run into any trouble, make sure to let know. I'll see if I can help?"
"I appreciate the sentint, brother, but it's just a small issue, nothing to worry about."
"That's good to hear."
Ning Fan wasn't entirely sure if Zhang Bo was being truthful.
In business, what's deed big or small is hard to determine.
Ning Fan laughed, "Anyway, Brother Bo, don't hesitate to call if anything cos up. Though I might not be much help, I can at least keep you company."
"Let's do that, then. When you're in my area, I'll take you out for a good ti."
Zhang Bo laughed heartily and imdiately bought a ticket to the Capital City.
He's not from the Capital City; it was just that his dad made a wise investnt years ago by buying land in the Imperial Capital and building a tower.
Ning Fan gathered from Zhang Bo's brief ntions that there seed to be so contract issue with the building, prompting him to rush over.
After seeing Zhang Bo off, it was already 2 PM.
"Where to now?"
Upon realizing it was Sunday, Ning Fan imdiately headed to Dawn Primary School.
"I really need to thank Teacher Chen this ti."
Before that, Ning Fan thought to himself, "I need to have a word with Xu Xiaoqing when I get back."
From chatting with Nannan the other day, Ning Fan learned that Xu Xiaoqing did visit but always seed to be looking for trouble.
Chen Min, who didn't particularly like Xu Xiaoqing, shut the door on her the third ti she visited.
"This unreliable sister-in-law just doesn't know how to behave."
Ning Fan sighed, bought so fruit baskets to thank Chen Min for her care, also to apologize on behalf of Xu Xiaoqing.
On a holiday, Dawn Primary School wasn't as strict as usual. Ning Fan walked straight to the staff living area.
Just as Ning Fan was about to knock on the door, it suddenly opened.
Chen Min still had her old-fashioned look of black clothes, black pants, and black glasses.
"Teacher Chen, sorry for troubling you during this ti."
Chen Min calmly said, "No need to buy things when you visit."
"It's nothing, just so fruits."
During his days at Chen Min's ho, Ning Fan noticed that she seed to be a vegetarian, rarely touching at.
"Teacher Chen, please accept it. Otherwise, I'll be really embarrassed."
Chen Min gave Ning Fan a serious look before finally accepting the gift for the first ti.
"Where's Nannan?"
"She's taking a nap."
Ning Fan expressed surprise, "A nap!"
Unless her soul power was damaged, a soul body doesn't need to sleep.
Relying solely on sleep for a tiny bit of soul power is virtually worthless.
Only at Ning Fan's insistence did Nannan develop the habit of daily sleep.
Chen Min's gaze shifted slightly as she calmly asked, "Are you surprised?"
"A little. Normally, this kid doesn't like taking naps."
"Really?"
Ning Fan couldn't shake the feeling that Chen Min's gaze on him held so special aning.
Of course, it wasn't about romantic nonsense between n and won.
Ning Fan was quite sure of that.
Glancing at the sleeping Nannan in the bedroom, Ning Fan moved to the living room, where silence reigned.
Chen Min was the type of woman who didn't talk much, seeming to prefer interactions with children and maintaining a distance from other adults, essentially a rather aloof person.
Even though Ning Fan had known Chen Min for a while, each encounter still felt awkward, not knowing what to say.
That was the situation now. Since sitting down, Chen Min had quietly read, while Ning Fan shifted uncomfortably.
"Teacher Chen, maybe I should take Nannan ho first."
Without lifting her head, Chen Min said, "No rush. The child just fell asleep; let her sleep a bit longer."
After saying that, as if realizing she'd overstepped, she glanced up at Ning Fan before returning to her book.
Seeing this, Ning Fan couldn't insist any longer.
Roughly ten minutes passed before Ning Fan couldn't help but say, "Ahem... thank you so much for this ti."
"You're welco."
This ti, Chen Min looked up before speaking, but after that, she returned to reading.
"What book is so captivating?"
Curious, Ning Fan sneakily glanced, "Tao Te Ching, quite surprising for a woman to enjoy this book."
After noticing Chen Min's scholarly deanor and the interior design, Ning Fan understood.
Seeing Chen Min engrossed in her book, Ning Fan dared not disturb her, so he sat uneasily, trying to ditate.
At this mont, Chen Min suddenly glanced at Ning Fan and casually asked, "Where's your wife?"
Chen Min initiating the conversation surprised Ning Fan. He honestly replied, "She's at work."
"Oh!"
Chen Min acknowledged before unexpectedly saying five minutes later, "Have you ever thought about separating from your wife? Like getting a divorce."
"What!"
Ning Fan almost believed he heard wrong, and asked again, "Sorry, Teacher Chen, I didn't catch that. Could you repeat it?"
"Nothing, just overthinking. Everything in the world follows its natural course, cause and effect have their own laws."
Hearing that, Ning Fan felt shocked, peeking at her book, wondering if she had gotten herself confused with her reading, "Teacher Chen, could she have read until she got silly?"
