568: Chapter 557: Are You Preparing to Face Apollo Alone 568: Chapter 557: Are You Preparing to Face Apollo Alone After receiving the news of the fifth Nine Souls Jade from Ajiu, Ning Fan had a sleepless night.
He obtained detailed information about Apollo and the Fang Guild from Ajiu and spent the whole night researching.
The Nine Souls Jade was the thing Ning Fan wanted most, as it related to his past and lost mories.
The news of the fifth Nine Souls Jade excited him but also put pressure on him.
Should it be called fate’s arrangent?
That the fifth Nine Souls Jade was in Apollo’s hands gave Ning Fan another reason to deal with Apollo.
Looking at the information about Apollo, Ning Fan sat by the bed all night until daybreak, only then did he get up and stretch.
A battle with Apollo was inevitable.
Before that, Ning Fan decided to send Xu Ruolan back to her country, as staying in Europe had beco unsafe, especially since Apollo was currently in Europe.
Knock, knock, knock, soon after knocking on the door, Xu Ruolan appeared in front of Ning Fan dressed in a white long dress, like a fairy.
“It just so happens that I was looking for you too, co in.”
Xu Ruolan hesitated to make eye contact with Ning Fan and asked him to co in first.
Ning Fan didn’t overthink, considering that Xu Ruolan’s purpose in Europe was fulfilled, and as soon as he entered the room, he asked, “When do you plan to go back?”
“Uh…
tomorrow?” Xu Ruolan was startled, replying sowhat uncertainly while also looking at Ning Fan with so confusion.
Ning Fan stroked his chin, thought for a mont, and then asked, “You shouldn’t have any work-related matters afterward, right?”
“The first part of the agreent has already been signed, I will deal with other matters after returning to my country, my work in Europe is done.”
Xu Ruolan sat on the sofa, watching Ning Fan gradually furrow his brows; she seed to have already anticipated sothing.
“Is sothing wrong?”
“Nothing’s wrong, nothing’s wrong, you don’t need to worry.
I just think if you’re done with your matters in Europe, then you should go back soon, Xiaoqing is quite lonely at ho by herself.”
To tell the truth, this excuse sounded completely unpersuasive to Xu Ruolan, he must be hiding sothing that made him urge her to return ho urgently.
Xu Ruolan hesitated for a mont, she had initially planned to invite Ning Fan to explore, as Bali is a romantic place and cooperation with the Zarfi Group was already achieved; she intended to spend the remaining ti with Ning Fan.
Now, however, Ning Fan was eager for her to return to her country first, and Xu Ruolan could tell there was definitely sothing hidden behind it.
“Then I will book the flight back for tonight, what about you?”
Xu Ruolan was unsure whether Ning Fan was going with her, so she asked.
Ning Fan shook his head: “I still have so things to do, you go ahead by yourself; I will stay in Europe for a few more days.”
Just as she guessed, Ning Fan was certainly going to do sothing dangerous again…
Xu Ruolan sighed, her eyes filled with concern; she really wanted Ning Fan to go with her, but she didn’t think it would make a difference.
“By the way, didn’t you say you had sothing to tell ?” Ning Fan suddenly recalled what Xu Ruolan had said when he first ca in.
Observing Xu Ruolan’s outfit at that mont, Ning Fan suddenly realized sothing, feeling a wave of guilt in his heart.
By the ti he had realized, Xu Ruolan, however, shook her head calmly and said, “Nothing much, just talking about going back.
I’ll go pack my bags now.”
Ning Fan stood at the door and imdiately regretted watching Xu Ruolan’s departing figure, cursing himself for not reacting sooner.
“It’s rare to co to Bali and I only visited the Eiffel Tower once.
I haven’t even seen the Saint Mary’s Cathedral or the Louvre yet.
If only a beautiful lady could join for afternoon tea by the Seine River!”
With a loud voice, Ning Fan said this intentionally.
Xu Ruolan shuddered slightly but still didn’t turn around and continued packing her luggage.
Seeing that Xu Ruolan still didn’t turn to look at him, Ning Fan felt exasperated and decided not to beat around the bush.
He walked over and invited, “Beautiful lady, would you like to walk the streets of Bali with ?”
“No,” Xu Ruolan refused without even turning her head, causing Ning Fan an awkward mont.
“Don’t be in such a hurry to reject …” Ning Fan was about to say more, but Xu Ruolan turned around, placed her finger on Ning Fan’s lips, and signaled him to say no more.
“I don’t need any compensation.
Just co back early.”
Xu Ruolan’s words moved Ning Fan deeply, boosting his spirits.
Afterward, Ning Fan helped Xu Ruolan pack, and then went out to make a phone call to Ayu.
“Tonight, you guys will go back with Xu Ruolan.
I’m entrusting her to you.”
Not feeling confident about Xu Ruolan going back alone, Ning Fan called Ayu and his team to secretly protect her.
That evening, Xu Ruolan boarded the plane back to their country with Ning Fan’s farewell, while Feng Yu Lei Dian followed closely and kept unseen around her.
Outside the security gate, Ayu stood next to Ning Fan, watching as Xu Ruolan’s figure disappeared into the distance.
“Are you planning to take on Apollo alone?”
The phone call hadn’t clarified everything, so Ayu chose this mont to ask.
“Are you worried about ?” Ning Fan turned and smiled at Ayu.
Ayu looked at Ning Fan with concern.
She couldn’t understand why Ning Fan insisted on them leaving Europe, as they could have stayed to help him.
Perhaps sensing Ayu’s thoughts, Ning Fan explained, “Apollo surely still tracks our whereabouts.
I’m not comfortable leaving her here, but I also can’t guarantee that Apollo won’t take the opportunity to harm her if she goes back alone, so please make sure you safely escort her back to our country.”
The Fang Guild was not only targeting him but, due to Xu Ruolan’s connection with Ning Fan and the Genetic Potion, she was also their target.
Leaving her in Europe was sothing Ning Fan could not be at peace with, so he insisted she return to their country.
Similarly, he dared not let her go back alone; hence, to be safe, he entrusted the protection of Xu Ruolan to Feng Yu Lei Dian.
“Is this an order?”
Ayu looked into Ning Fan’s eyes, seemingly confirming sothing.
Before coming, Chen Fengnan had told them to obey any command from Ning Fan, and if Ning Fan insisted they return, in principle, they could not refuse.
“No, it’s not an order.
This is my request.” Ning Fan shook his head, his expression serious and his tone sincere as he spoke to Ayu.
Ayu nodded, her expression becoming resolute.
“Then take care of yourself.
We will do our utmost to protect her.”
“Thank you all!” Ning Fan looked at them all, genuinely grateful.
