In Xu Ruolan’s room, she stared at the screen, which showed that the call was not answered.
Nangong Fu had been missing for several days.
Since the day Nangong Fu returned, Xu Ruolan and Ning Fan hadn’t seen him since that evening they parted ways, and he seemed to have vanished into thin air.
Initially, Xu Ruolan didn’t pay much attention, thinking that Nangong Fu was just hiding after being upset.
Later, when a relative contacted her and asked about Nangong Fu’s recent situation, Xu Ruolan started actively looking for him.
But the result was that she discovered Nangong Fu had disappeared, no one knew where he had gone, and no one was answering his phone.
“Could he really have left out of anger?” Xu Ruolan muttered to herself.
Could Nangong Fu have left just because he found out she had a boyfriend?
That was not his style!
Xu Ruolan still knew some about Nangong Fu, and even if he was hurt, according to his personality, he would definitely continue to pester her relentlessly afterward.
However, Nangong Fu’s sudden disappearance had left Xu Ruolan puzzled, where on earth had he gone?
Xu Ruolan had even specifically sought out Ning Fan for this matter.
“Have you seen my cousin since that day?
He has been missing for several days now, completely out of touch.
Could it be that we went too far, and he ran off?”
Xu Ruolan asked, pinching her chin, and looked somewhat worriedly.
Nangong Fu had just returned from abroad, and by reason, Xu Ruolan should have been looking after him a bit.
But with Nangong Fu being missing these past few days, Xu Ruolan couldn’t help but start to worry; after all, he was family, couldn’t be completely ignored, right?
When Ning Fan saw Xu Ruolan coming to him because of Nangong Fu, his interest immediately waned.
He replied casually, “He should be fine.”
Having already seen how thick-skinned Nangong Fu was, Ning Fan didn’t believe such a setback could drive the guy to seek death; probably he was now hiding somewhere, plotting something.
Xu Ruolan slightly frowned, feeling that something was not quite right, but she couldn’t quite put her finger on what it was.
She really wanted to ask Ning Fan to help her look for Nangong Fu, but thinking of that day’s incident, that kiss, Xu Ruolan was infuriated.
This incident had almost become a knot in Xu Ruolan’s heart; these past few days she had been particularly bothered by it, and now it came to her mind again, seeing Ning Fan’s leisurely appearance made her both embarrassed and angry.
“He is my cousin after all, can’t you speak a bit nicer?”
“What did I say?” Ning Fan turned around in surprise, baffled by Xu Ruolan’s sudden accusation.
“What do you mean, ‘what’?
Don’t you understand?”
Xu Ruolan glared at Ning Fan, her eyes somewhat furious.
Ning Fan looked frustrated, Xu Ruolan had asked about Nangong Fu, and from start to finish, he had only said one sentence, less than ten words, how had he spoken rudely?
“Hey hey hey, you should have a reason for being angry, what did I do to offend you again?” Ning Fan said helplessly.
“Can’t you think for yourself?” Xu Ruolan replied irresponsibly.
Ning Fan tugged at the corner of his mouth, his forehead lined with rows of frustration.
Just as he was about to continue arguing with Xu Ruolan, Ning Fan’s phone suddenly started to buzz at that moment.
Pulling out his phone, it turned out to be a call from Bai Yunxi’s beautiful agent, Zheng Wenxiu.
“Hello?”
“Master Ning?!”
“Uh, yes, it’s me.
What’s the matter?”
Ning Fan asked, puzzled.
Since the last celebration party, Ning Fan hadn’t interacted with Bai Yunxi or Zheng Wenxiu for a long time.
If Zheng Wenxiu hadn’t called, Ning Fan would have almost forgotten that these two existed.
And now that Zheng Wenxiu had called, Ning Fan was also curious about what she wanted from him.
“Master Ning, please, you have to save Yunxi!”
Zheng Wenxiu said urgently, her tone suggesting that Bai Yunxi had gotten into some trouble.
Ning Fan furrowed his brows and immediately asked, “Don’t panic, take your time and explain, what exactly happened?”
So, Zheng Wenxiu detailed the trouble that Bai Yunxi had encountered.
The situation went like this: since winning the championship at the last ‘Dancing Qiankun’, the performance by Ning Fan and Bai Yunxi had become a classic, and Bai Yunxi’s fame had skyrocketed.
Seeing this, Bai Yunxi’s agency took advantage of the momentum and began to shift more resources towards her.
It was because of this that Bai Yunxi’s schedule was fully booked, which is why she hadn’t had time to get in touch with Ning Fan.
As Bai Yunxi’s fame increased, almost reaching the top tier, the company’s executives couldn’t stop smiling.
But that’s when the trouble started.
The waters of the entertainment industry are deep.
Bai Yunxi’s fame had risen, and her exposure had increased compared to before, inevitably putting her in the spotlight of many more people, including some big bosses in the entertainment industry.
Now touted as the pure and innocent fairy of the dance world, Bai Yunxi often received invitations from these big bosses, and tonight she had to attend a dinner, hosted by a boss whose reputation in the circle was notably bad.
“This time this person’s methods are disgusting.
He is notoriously bad in the industry, and many artists have suffered at his hands.
I’m afraid I alone won’t be able to protect Yunxi if she goes!”
“Then can’t she refuse?”
“If she could refuse, would I be calling you?”
Zheng Wenxiu’s tone was quite bitter.
The dinner was very important to Bai Yunxi.
Refusing it would mean offending the boss, which could negatively impact her.
Knowing what kind of person he was, but being unable to refuse, Zheng Wenxiu and Bai Yunxi themselves were quite helpless.
So they racked their brains and thought of Ning Fan.
Ning Fan took less than a second to think about it before quickly agreeing.
“I’ll help with this matter.
When the time comes, send me the location, and I’ll directly go to meet you.”
“Master Ning, thank you, really, thank you!”
After receiving Ning Fan’s response, Zheng Wenxiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After hanging up the phone, Ning Fan noticed Xu Ruolan secretly watching him, undoubtedly curious about who had called him.
“I have to go out to handle some affairs tonight.
I’ll probably be back late.”
“Tell me what you’re up to when you get back late.
Even if you don’t come back, it has nothing to do with me.”
Xu Ruolan replied very dishonestly, clearly caring a lot, but her words were utterly unsparing at that moment.
Helplessly shaking his head, Ning Fan watched Xu Ruolan, smiling without a word.
