875: Chapter 864: I Married Your Sister?
Looking at Ning Fan’s awkward smile, Xu Xiaoqing couldn’t suppress her rising anger.
She crossed her arms and said, “Just wait until my sister gets back and sees how she deals with you!”
“Uh…”
Ning Fan was at a loss for words.
Although Xu Xiaoqing’s tone was exaggerated and threatening, Ning Fan was sure Xu Ruolan wouldn’t actually get mad at him over such a trivial matter.
But for so reason, he couldn’t shake the feeling that sothing about this little lass in front of him was odd today.
He couldn’t quite put his finger on it, but it just felt off!
“Alright, alright, let’s not talk about this now.
I still have sothing to do.
Do you want to co with ?
I’ll have soone renovate this place later, and it’ll be fine!”
Ning Fan tried to change the subject, but Xu Xiaoqing was having none of it.
“Sothing like this just happened, and you still have the nerve to go out?!”
Xu Xiaoqing’s face was full of fury, deepening the confusion in Ning Fan’s heart.
She acted as if she was extrely distressed over this house.
But logically speaking, that shouldn’t be the case…
Sure, living sowhere for a long ti can create attachnt, but it’s not like this was a big deal.
Just get soone to repair it later—why was Xu Xiaoqing so agitated?
And judging by her attitude now, it seed like she wouldn’t let Ning Fan off the hook unless he gave her a satisfactory explanation.
At that mont, Ning Fan felt a headache coming on.
Who on earth had he offended this ti?
He had just barely advanced to the True Origin Realm and hadn’t even had ti to celebrate when this ss suddenly cropped up.
Ning Fan was both annoyed and speechless.
“Alright, alright, stop being mad.
It’s my fault, okay?”
“If apologies worked, what would we need cops for?
This is a new house!
How can you not treasure it?!”
Xu Xiaoqing fud, utterly unwilling to accept Ning Fan’s apology.
“Wait a second, didn’t you all move into this house a long ti ago?
How is it a ‘new house’ now all of a sudden…?”
Ning Fan hurriedly interrupted Xu Xiaoqing.
What she said was a huge red flag.
She was insisting it was a “new house,” but Ning Fan knew for a fact that Xu Ruolan and the others had been living there for years.
Where did this “new house” idea co from?
And Xu Xiaoqing’s behavior was giving Ning Fan the impression that this little lass was looking for an excuse to pick a fight with him.
An inexplicable feeling of strangeness started to bubble up in Ning Fan’s heart.
But try as he might, he couldn’t figure out where exactly the problem lay.
“You?!”
Xu Xiaoqing’s eyes widened as if Ning Fan had infuriated her beyond belief.
She imdiately turned her face away, looking like she had no intention of paying him any further attention.
Her reaction only made Ning Fan feel more baffled.
He quickly asked, “What’s wrong with you today?
Who upset you?
I’ll go teach them a lesson!”
Xu Xiaoqing shot him another glare.
The person who had made her angry wasn’t anyone else—it was Ning Fan himself!
No matter what Ning Fan said after that, Xu Xiaoqing refused to respond.
Left with no choice, Ning Fan begrudgingly accepted his “silent treatnt” loss and decided to treat Xu Xiaoqing like an untouchable ancestor for the ti being.
“My dear ancestor, what do I have to do for you to forgive ?”
Ning Fan asked weakly, his headache worsening.
Xu Xiaoqing was so angry she started laughing sarcastically.
“You haven’t even been married to my sister for long.
After going through the trouble of getting a new house, you pull a stunt like this!
Not only do you refuse to take responsibility, but you play dumb and try to shirk it?!”
“How am I trying to shirk responsibility?
It was an accident…
Wait, what did you just say?!
That I married your sister?!”
Ning Fan caught the peculiar comnt Xu Xiaoqing had just made.
Since when had he married Xu Ruolan?!
What was going on here?!
Yes, they did have an engagent, but they hadn’t gotten married yet.
So what on earth did Xu Xiaoqing an by that comnt?!
“Little lass, did you take the wrong dicine today?
Why do you keep saying things I don’t understand?!”
Ning Fan looked at Xu Xiaoqing with concern.
She hadn’t been frightened into so kind of delirium by what had just happened, right?
However, Ning Fan’s words only made Xu Xiaoqing angrier.
She rushed at him, fists and feet flying, and effectively kicked Ning Fan out of the house.
“Go reflect on yourself outside!
Just because you married my sister doesn’t an I’ll tolerate everything.
Only co back when you know you were wrong!”
With that, she slamd the door shut, leaving Ning Fan standing dumbfounded outside, staring gloomily at the tightly closed door.
“What the hell is going on?!”
Ning Fan cursed, completely at a loss as to what was wrong with Xu Xiaoqing.
Why had she suddenly blown up at him?
It was just a hole in the ceiling—was that really worth this much fuss?
But the real issue probably wasn’t about the ceiling.
Ning Fan furrowed his brow, sensing that sothing deeper was at play.
“I married Ruolan?”
No way.
Ning Fan distinctly rembered that they hadn’t held a wedding yet, not even gotten their marriage certificate!
But Xu Xiaoqing’s words didn’t sound like lies.
If she were acting, then her performance deserved an Oscar.
Ning Fan found her totally convincing, unable to detect the slightest hint of pretense.
“What’s actually happening?”
Confused, Ning Fan stared at the sky, unable to make sense of the situation unfolding around him.
After thinking it over with no result, Ning Fan decided to head straight to the office and talk to Xu Ruolan about what had happened at ho.
Xu Xiaoqing’s reaction was just too strange; maybe the problem really lay with her…
Arriving at the company, Ning Fan didn’t notice anything unusual.
Everyone was behaving as usual, except for that slacker Huo Zhanyuan, who was nowhere to be seen.
Perhaps he was slacking off sowhere.
Ning Fan didn’t pay much attention to it and headed straight for Xu Ruolan’s office.
Without even knocking, he walked right in.
“So, Ruolan, I need to tell you sothing…”
“Who let you in?”
The person inside turned out to be soone Ning Fan never expected to see, leaving him stunned.
“Qiuran?
What are you doing here?”
“…”
Huo Qiuran furrowed her brows, her gaze toward Ning Fan cold and unfamiliar.
“That’s the question I should be asking you.
Who let you in here?!”
The icy tone sent a chill down Ning Fan’s spine.
His eyes instinctively flicked to the desk sign, which read “CEO Huo Qiuran,” not Xu Ruolan…
“What the hell?!”
Ning Fan was plunged into an indescribable state of bewildernt.
If Xu Xiaoqing was one thing, why was Huo Qiuran now showing up where she shouldn’t be?
“Do you not want your job anymore?!”
