Outside the Fragrant Mountain Tan Manor.
When Chen Fan returned after dropping off Xiao Nannan and Su Yingxue, his gaze swept over and he saw Wang Dongdong walking towards the community gate with a girl.
He drove the car over, rolled down the window, and honked the horn.
"Big Brother?"
Wang Dongdong's eyes lit up with surprise, and he trotted to the car, saying, "Big Brother."
Chen Fan nodded and looked at the girl.
The girl seemed a little younger than Wang Dongdong. She was wearing a bodycon dress and carrying a delicate bag. She had a rather sweet appearance.
"Wenwen, this is my Big Brother. Hurry up and greet him!"
Wang Dongdong turned to the girl and said.
"Hello, Big Brother!"
Wenwen smiled sweetly and greeted him.
This girl looked decent. At least, she was more than enough for Wang Dongdong. It was just a matter of what she was like on the inside.
Chen Fan nodded and asked, "Where are you going?"
"We're going to your place, to see Aunt Li," Wang Dongdong said with a fawning smile.
"Then get in the car."
Chen Fan didn't mind and said.
Wang Dongdong agreed and helped open the car door.
"Big Brother, Aunt Li mentioned that tomorrow is Sister Xue's competition day. Can I bring Wenwen to watch?"
Sitting in the back seat, Wang Dongdong asked.
"You'll have to ask Axue about that," Chen Fan said.
"Okay, Sister Xue will definitely agree."
Wang Dongdong said.
Chen Fan remained noncommittal.
It was Wenwen who curiously sized up Chen Fan.
Soon they arrived outside the villa. Chen Fan saw a military vehicle parked at the entrance. Xiang Jingzhu was sitting in the car. Seeing Chen Fan return, she got out.
"You guys go in!"
Chen Fan gestured for Wang Dongdong to take his girlfriend inside.
He himself remained in the car.
As expected, Xiang Jingzhu came to the passenger seat and said, "Where did those underground forces go?"
Xiang Jingzhu and her colleagues clearly knew something about last night's events, but they hadn't intervened or interfered.
"Crematorium."
Chen Fan said.
Xiang Jingzhu was stunned and didn't quite believe it.
However, she didn't ask further and instead warned, "Whether it's your Dark Night or those people, you'd best not cause trouble, or you'll face the consequences."
Chen Fan found it tedious to respond.
"The head of the Xu family, Xu Yunhou, took Xu Donglai and all the bodies from the Xu family. The Xu family won't let this go after you massacred so many of them," Xiang Jingzhu said.
"So what?" Chen Fan retorted.
"Behind the Xu family, it should be the Feng family."
Xiang Jingzhu was a bit annoyed by Chen Fan's tone and added, "A thousand-year-old aristocratic family. I don't know if you've heard of them?"
Heard of them? More than heard of them.
Chen Fan grinned and gave a self-deprecating smile. "I know."
"I don't know where you get your confidence from?"
On the way, Xiang Jingzhu felt she had a lot to say, but as soon as she heard Chen Fan's tone, she felt a surge of anger.
She felt that she had kindly come to remind him, but this guy simply didn't care.
If it weren't for the fact that he had saved her life, would she have bothered?
"The energy and foundation of a thousand-year-old aristocratic family are far beyond those of families like the Xu family," Xiang Jingzhu said with a cold snort. "Even if you are the Lord of Dark Night, on Chinese soil, facing a thousand-year-old aristocratic family, you won't gain any advantage unless you leave the country."
A thousand-year-old aristocratic family, it wasn't that simple.
Chen Fan said calmly, "Thanks for the reminder. Is there anything else?"
Xiang Jingzhu was a bit irked.
Not to mention her current position and her identity as the eldest daughter of the Xiang family, any man who met her, a mature beauty, would fawn over her. When had she ever been treated like this?
Moreover, she was a little older than Chen Fan, yet Chen Fan spoke to her as if she were an ignorant little girl.
"Also, that Jiang Shaolong is still on the run. He won't give up and will seek revenge on you!"
Taking a deep breath, Xiang Jingzhu said with a huff.
Chen Fan couldn't be bothered to reply.
A person like Jiang Shaolong, did he ever enter his eyes?
Xiang Jingzhu truly wanted to arrest Chen Fan and interrogate him, but in the end, she knew she couldn't. So, without saying goodbye, she got out of the car, returned to her own, and drove away.
Chen Fan naturally didn't pay it any mind. He got out of the car and went inside.
Wang Dongdong was nowhere to be seen in the living room. He was taking Wenwen on a tour of the villa.
...
The Su family.
Su Yingxia lazily got out of bed, washed her face simply, and sat on the sofa with her hair dishevelled, watching television.
"Su Yingxia, you're getting up so late. Aren't you eating breakfast?"
Su's mother walked out of the kitchen with a dark expression. She glanced at her daughter, her face darkening further, and began to scold her.
"No appetite."
Su Yingxia glanced at her phone and said listlessly.
"You good-for-nothing girl, you've been listless for the past two days. What's the situation with Young Master Yuan?"
"Don't mention it!"
Su Yingxia slumped on the sofa and said, "Young Master Yuan returned to Jiangbei yesterday."
Su's mother was stunned and asked, "Why did he suddenly return to Jiangbei?"
Su Yingxia shook her head.
Although Yuan Liangping had informed her when he left that he was going back to handle some matters, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
She, of course, didn't know that Yuan Liangping had actually been scared back to Jiangbei to lie low after Scarface and the others failed to kill Chen Fan.
Having divorced Jiang Shaolong on one hand, and Yuan Liangping returning to Jiangbei on the other, Su Yingxia felt like she had lost out on both fronts, so naturally, she wasn't in a good mood.
Even Miss Chen had returned to Kyoto without even bidding her farewell. Those who were eager to meet her and wanted to use her as a connection had all gone silent.
"I say, what were you thinking, girl? Young Master Yuan is such a good catch. Why didn't you go back to Jiangbei with Young Master Yuan? It would have been good to relax..."
Su Yingxia was internally frustrated.
"Now it's great. Where can I find a better man than Young Master Yuan?"
Su's mother lectured her.
Just then, a mobile phone vibrated.
Su's mother picked it up and answered.
Listening to the words on the other end, Su's mother's eyes widened with joy. She looked a bit disbelieving, and a bit jealous.
After more than a minute, she hung up the phone, slapped Su Yingxia's thigh, and said, "Quick, quick, wake up that unpromising Yu Xin. Our Su family has great news!"
"What good news?" Su Yingxia asked indifferently.
"Your third uncle's family is back, with a whole convoy! Your third uncle is very successful now. He's the CEO of a foreign company and has brought back hundreds of millions!"
Su Yingxia suddenly sat up straight and said in disbelief, "Is that true or not?"
"Your grandmother called personally. How could it be fake?"
Su's mother said joyfully, "Our Su family will finally prosper, not by relying on others, but on ourselves. Hurry and change your clothes. I'll call your father, that useless man, to come back quickly!"
"No... hasn't Third Uncle been out of touch for many years?"
Su Yingxia was still incredulous.
"Stop your nonsense and hurry up. You'll understand everything when you see your Third Uncle?"
Su Yingxia quickly went to wake Su Yu Xin up, then changed and washed up.
By the time they had finished washing up, Su's father, who had gone to buy groceries, also rushed back.
The whole family, overjoyed, drove towards the old Su family residence.
When they arrived outside the old Su family residence, a line of over a dozen luxury cars were parked there, from Bentleys to BMWs and Mercedes-Benzes, all exuding an air of opulence.
All of the Su family's relatives and friends had heard the news and gathered at the old Su family residence.
