"All right, let's go."
Just an ordinary jade store owner, no need to worry to death. Xu Fan smiled and comforted Xia Xiaodie, leading her towards the room.
"Huh? Sister Feng Huang!"
Just rounding the corner, they saw Feng Huang and Gongsun Qin coming out of Xu Fan's room. Xia Xiaodie exclaid in surprise and ran over.
"This..."
Not having inford them of their return, it was a surprise encounter for Xia Xiaodie. Xu Fan felt a bit awkward watching this.
Fortunately, after a day's rest, Feng Huang looked much better and wouldn't worry Xia Xiaodie too much.
Xia Xiaodie and Feng Huang hadn't seen each other for a while, so they started chatting excitedly.
To avoid making the little girl worry, Feng Huang deliberately concealed her discomfort.
This made Xu Fan breathe a sigh of relief. If Xiaodie knew about their feud with the Cheng Family, she might have trouble sleeping again.
"You guys ca back at the perfect ti. I didn't notice, so..."
Seeing Xu Fan approaching, Gongsun Qin quietly explained.
"No worries, secrets can't be hidden forever. It was bound to happen."
Xu Fan smiled, not blaming Gongsun Qin for it.
Watching this straightforward woman, he felt her gaze was sowhat different than usual.
It was an indescribable feeling, quite different from before.
"What is it? Did Feng Huang tell you gossip about ?"
Suddenly looking at him like this undoubtedly ant Gongsun Qin heard sothing from Feng Huang.
Xu Fan joked with a grin.
"Pfft, who would talk about you."
Gongsun Qin imdiately retorted.
In fact, Xu Fan's guess was right.
She stayed behind today just to chat with Feng Huang.
Gongsun Qin had a certain bias against Xu Fan and wanted to understand how others viewed him.
Staying to take care of Feng Huang, she indeed heard sothing different today.
This was in stark contrast to her impression of Xu Fan, but it was clear that Xu Fan had a high standing in their eyes.
"You big dummy!"
The previous conflict with Xu Fan might have been due to her pride and inability to let go.
Now, seeing nurous examples, she thought maybe she should change her attitude towards him.
Just as Gongsun Qin planned to let go of her pride and talk to Xu Fan calmly, Xia Xiaodie angrily dashed towards Xu Fan.
"Why didn't you tell Sister Feng Huang was here!"
"Co on, what bad things did you do to her!"
Because of Feng Huang, Xia Xiaodie seriously began to berate Xu Fan. Xu Fan had no ti to pay attention to Gongsun Qin.
Watching the commotion between the two, Gongsun Qin was stunned for a mont, then a bitter smile appeared on her face.
...
After chatting outside for a while, the four of them went inside.
Taking advantage of Xia Xiaodie being distracted, Xu Fan glanced at Feng Huang.
"Are you feeling better?"
"Yes, don't worry, I'm fine."
Xu Fan's covert concern ward Feng Huang's heart. She smiled as she replied.
She wasn't a delicate lady; these minor injuries couldn't bring her down.
"All right, let's rest a bit first, then we'll go downstairs for dinner."
Having just returned from Myanmar, still a bit tired, Xu Fan suggested they first rest a bit.
Bam!
But before Xu Fan could sit down, a loud thud ca from the front door.
"This..."
At the door, several uniford policen burst in!
They looked formidable, clearly not bringing good news.
Feng Huang, with a serious expression, glanced at Xu Fan.
Her eyes questioning if this was Gong Wei's revenge.
Having been battle comrades for years, Xu Fan knew what her query was about.
As for the answer, clearly not.
Gong Wei's current struggle with Cold Jade Poison made it unlikely he'd cause trouble now.
Impossible.
The visitors were more likely the reaction of a resentful, unsuccessful businessman.
Police?
Watching the uniford local officers, Xu Fan squinted.
Brought by Boss Su, these knives were indeed difficult to handle.
"Xu Fan, what should we do..."
Xia Xiaodie, sowhat aware of the situation, anxiously looked at Xu Fan.
She hadn't expected it to be the police.
In this scenario, how could they ask the police for help...
Uncertain if Xu Fan could handle this.
"You all sit tight, I'll handle this."
Xu Fan explained with a smile, then approached the intruding officers.
"Do none of you knock before entering?"
"Heh, knock? Give you ti to run?"
The officer, showing no signs of humor at Xu Fan's joke, coldly snapped back.
"Get down on your knees with your hands on your head!"
The shout was thunderous, enough to scare the average person. Xu Fan just chuckled hearing it.
"Officer, if you say I committed a cri, shouldn't you give a reason?"
"Damn it, you want a reason?"
Montarily stumped by Xu Fan's question, the officer glanced around, eyes landing on the three stunning won behind him, then had an answer.
"Aren't the three won in your room evidence enough!"
"Oh co on, officer, they're just friends of this gentleman, not what you think."
The hotel manager trailing behind explained with a sorrowful face.
If this led to an investigation, he couldn't escape responsibility, besides, the whole situation was innocent. How could this guy twist the truth so?
Intimidated by the officer's authority, he could only plead innocence.
"Shut up! Who do you think you are?"
"You think I need your chatter for my investigation?"
His pleas were only t with further threats.
After silencing the manager, the officer ordered his n.
"Cuff them all and take them back for questioning!"
"Wait."
As the order was given, officers pulled out cuffs and moved in, but Xu Fan raised a hand, stopping them all.
"What? You still plan to run?"
This "wait" only made the officer's expression even colder.
Xu Fan watched with a smile.
"Of course not, officer, I admire your keen insight."
Seeing the officer confused, Xu Fan laughed, "Accusing of harboring three won, you do recognize my hidden masculinity."
"Taking away is no problem, but could you step outside first?"
Pointing towards the door, Xu Fan continued, "Let finish my business here; after all, right now, it's only attempted, isn't it?"
