"Chen Fan, can you be more serious?"
"Those women, they don't look serious at all!"
Xia Bingqing said indignantly.
Chen Fan was amused by the little expression on Xia Bingqing's face and said slowly, "Ms. Xia, you don't think that by announcing our relationship in front of everyone, you can get me, do you!"
Xia Bingqing's expression froze upon hearing this, "Chen Fan, what do you mean?"
Chen Fan smiled, "Guess?"
Xia Bingqing immediately spat, "I'm not guessing!"
Chen Fan chuckled and sighed, "A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea!"
"You weren't like this before!"
"Don't tell me you've fallen in love with me already!"
Chen Fan picked up the red wine at hand and swirled it gently.
Xia Bingqing hesitated for almost no time, "Yes, I've already fallen in love with you!"
"Cough..."
Chen Fan hadn't expected Xia Bingqing to admit it so generously, and he exclaimed, "Ms. Xia, I was joking!"
"Scram!" Black lines instantly appeared on Xia Bingqing's forehead.
Chen Fan put on a carefree look, but in his heart, he sighed, knowing he still had five engagements to break off and wouldn't think about those messy things.
Also, his old man's whereabouts were unknown, which was truly worrying!
After a while, Zhu Rong and Qiao Shanhe came to Chen Fan and Xia Bingqing. Zhu Rong said to Xia Bingqing, "Ms. Xia, we'd like to have a chat with Chen Fan, if you don't mind..."
Although Xia Bingqing didn't recognize Zhu Rong, Qiao Shanhe, who was beside him, was a person of great status in Lin City, and she had to show respect. So she replied, "Mm... you chat!"
Xia Bingqing moved aside and drank her wine dejectedly, thinking about how to get Chen Fan.
Now, her mind was full of Chen Fan...
Could it be, as her best friend Liu Wenwen had said, that she should resort to some little tricks?
It seemed there was no other way besides that!
After a moment of contemplation, she made up her mind, she would go all out and do it, but she would need Liu Wenwen's cooperation!
On Chen Fan's side, facing the two old foxes, he played dumb... httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
Zhu Rong spoke first, "Chen Fan, I never imagined you would be even more formidable than I thought. I misjudged you!"
Chen Fan said lightly, "Today, perhaps it was an extraordinary performance!"
"You rascal, you can say something like that!" Qiao Shanhe raised his hand and pointed at Chen Fan twice, "We're not here for anything in particular. Come to my house for dinner tomorrow. Xiao Xue has wanted to see you for a long time, but you're such a busy person, always managing a myriad of state affairs..."
Zhu Rong cast a displeased glance at Qiao Shanhe and thought to himself, this old fellow is really something, using his granddaughter to speak.
And trying to win over Chen Fan.
He now regretted why he didn't have a granddaughter. He continued, "Chen Fan, although some words are old clichés, I still have to say that with your strength, you should serve your country and contribute to the nation, rather than letting your talent be hidden. What do you say?"
Qiao Shanhe was speechless with laughter and shook his head, saying nothing more.
Chen Fan said, "I, myself, prefer freedom... to be unrestrained and casual!"
"Old man Zhu, your rules and regulations are just too numerous!"
Zhu Rong was rejected again.
He sighed in his heart...
Now that Chen Fan wasn't joining him, he felt like he had lost hundreds of millions, which was a great pity!
"Chen Fan, I think you can reconsider!"
Chen Fan gave Zhu Rong a way to back down, so he said, "Then I'll reconsider..."
