Chapter 21 The Next One

Xia Bingqing, unable to contend with Chen Fan, gave up.

"You sleep on the floor, I sleep on the bed. If you dare to cross the line, see how I deal with you!"

She glared fiercely, attempting to intimidate him!

Chen Fan chuckled, saying carelessly, "Tsk… even if you invited me onto the bed, I wouldn't bother!"

"You're too thin, not my type!"

"I like them voluptuous!"

"Get lost..."

As soon as she finished speaking, a pillow flew towards Chen Fan.

However, Chen Fan dodged them all.

And so, a night quickly passed…

When Chen Fan woke up, Xia Bingqing was no longer there.

He tidied himself up and went downstairs…

Elder Xia was having breakfast.

"Xiao Fan is awake! Come, come, have some breakfast!"

Chen Fan did not have the habit of eating breakfast and casually said, "I won't eat. If nothing's up, I'll be leaving!"

Upon hearing this, Elder Xia stood up and quickly said, "Xiao Fan, did you sleep comfortably last night?"

Chen Fan understood there was more to his words.

After all, the aphrodisiac poison was the work of the man in front of him.

Chen Fan chuckled and said, "Just one word, it was too wonderful!"

Elder Xia gave Chen Fan a knowing look, "Good, good… I'm usually alone. You two can come back to stay anytime!"

What a ridiculous notion of being a couple.

"Alright..."

Chen Fan left Panlong Bay Villa and returned to Xiaoma Village.

He felt that this familiar territory was more suited to him.

Upon entering the courtyard, he saw Wang Rongrong tidying up.

Chen Fan was taken aback, "Rongrong, what are you doing?"

Wang Rongrong, recalling what happened yesterday, felt a bit ashamed and said sheepishly, "Well… my mother said your courtyard is quite messy, and it's not suitable for you to rent such a messy place, so she sent me to clean it up!"

"Oh… I see. No need!"

Chen Fan waved his hand, "For me, even a makeshift shack is fine!"

"You should go and get on with your business!"

"Oh…" Wang Rongrong responded softly. As she was about to put down the broom, she tentatively asked, "Brother Chen, is it alright?"

Chen Fan smiled, "Why wouldn't it be? Go ahead and get busy with other things!"

"Okay… alright!"

This address of "Brother Chen" completely improved the relationship between Chen Fan and Wang Rongrong.

Wang Rongrong left.

Chen Fan lay on the small bed, resting his eyes for a moment, and decided to visit the next person on his list.

He was truly exasperated by his grandfather's strange decision to arrange so many engagements for him back then.

The Qiao family was also a powerful family in Lincheng.

Chen Fan took a taxi and arrived at the entrance of a courtyard with an ancient and elegant style.

Above the gate, two large traditional Chinese characters hung: Qiao Family…

In this day and age, anyone who lived in such a courtyard could be described by one word: either rich or noble!

Chen Fan did not hesitate and stepped forward to knock on the door.

Knock, knock, knock…

Before long, the door opened, revealing a round head wearing black-rimmed glasses, looking like an old-fashioned butler.

Upon seeing Chen Fan, he sized him up…

"Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

Chen Fan got straight to the point, "I have an engagement with your Qiao family's Qiao Xiaoxue…"

Before he could finish his sentence, the door was already closed.

Bang!

Chen Fan's nose was almost flattened. Damn it…

"Hey…"

The next second, the door opened again. This time, it wasn't the bespectacled butler who came out, but four bodyguards in suits.

Then a cold voice rang out.

"How dare you try to swindle the Qiao family, how many lives do you think you have?"

"Throw him out immediately, what nonsense is this?"

Chen Fan was instantly speechless. Just as he was about to explain, four burly men in suits stepped forward…
