505: Chapter 504: Xu Rongfei’s Invitation 505: Chapter 504: Xu Rongfei’s Invitation The battle in the rainforest sent shockwaves through the entire Amazon Rainforest.
It was said that the Skull Guild’s branch stationed in the Amazon Jungle, a serpent-like force that was almost untouchable, was obliterated in just one night after provoking someone they shouldn’t have.
To this day, no one knows who was behind this deed.
Meanwhile, our protagonist was comfortably taking a hot shower on Chen Fengnan’s private jet, sitting cross-legged and recovering.
By the time the private jet had returned to Huaxia, Ning Fan had completely regained his peak condition.
Such is the benefit of cultivation; as a cultivator, one only needs time to meditate and recover from energy depletion, and they can instantly become lively and energetic again.
Absorbing energy from the outside world to strengthen and restore one’s body is far superior to how ordinary people derive nourishment from their surroundings.
After getting off the plane, Ning Fan had intended to leave, but Chen Fengnan called out to him.
“You must be tired from this trip, how about I prepare some gourmet food for you?
Moreover, I need to properly thank you,” Chen Fengnan sincerely said.
This trip had proven far more dangerous than Chen Fengnan had anticipated, and it also renewed his impression of Ning Fan’s capabilities.
If Chen Fengnan’s initial purpose was to establish a connection with Ning Fan that could be of help to him in critical moments, now, his thinking had completely changed.
He now simply wanted to be friends with Ning Fan, at the very least, he absolutely could not let there be a chance for Ning Fan to become an enemy.
That would be truly terrifying.
Provoking Ning Fan would lead to the same outcome as the Skull Guild’s demise.
However, Chen Fengnan was aware that what Ning Fan had annihilated in the rainforest was merely a branch of the Skull Guild.
The real entity of the Skull Guild was a colossal powerhouse, and Chen Fengnan never considered himself a good person; since the Skull Guild wanted him dead, focusing their attention on him, he certainly would not let it go without a fight.
However, his current power was too insignificant to go against the Skull Guild.
But he wouldn’t give up; he would strive to wipe out the entire Skull Guild completely, to avenge the misdeeds against him!
“No need, you know I didn’t help you on this trip for your gratitude, and you should understand that I have no interest in such things at all.
What can you offer me, money?
Do you think I need it?” Ning Fan shrugged and declined.
Chen Fengnan stood there feeling awkward.
Indeed, Chen Fengnan had always believed that money could accomplish anything, and that he could use it to do whatever he wanted.
But now he suddenly realized he was wrong, terribly so.
“No…
no need,” Chen Fengnan said awkwardly.
Just then, a loud voice outside the airport called out, “Ning Fan, over here, over here!”
Everyone turned in surprise, and Ning Fan’s expression instantly became a bit strange.
The person calling out to him was Xu Rongfei!
Ning Fan was now somewhat intimidated by this woman, still clearly remembering their previous encounter.
Had Qin Xianglian not suddenly interrupted, Ning Fan might have already fallen prey to Xu Rongfei’s schemes.
That’s right, it was a waste!
“Alright, since you have plans, let’s get together another time.
And remember what I said—thanks for the help with this matter.
If you ever need anything from me, Chen Fengnan, just say the word,” Chen Fengnan said, thumping his chest in assurance.
For a businessman to speak such impulsive words and make such a promise was in itself an incredible thing.
After Chen Fengnan left, only Ning Fan and Xu Rongfei remained.
“So, what brings you here?” Ning Fan looked at Xu Rongfei and asked directly.
“Ew, do I need to have a reason to see you?
We’re friends, aren’t we?” Xu Rongfei pouted at Ning Fan, her voice tinged with grievance.
Ning Fan was unmoved, still looking indifferently at Xu Rongfei.
Until things were clear, he would never go anywhere with her—especially not to her place.
“Fine, fine, I came to ask you to watch a game with me,” Xu Rongfei relented, finally revealing her intention.
“A game?” Ning Fan paused, feeling somewhat relieved.
But suddenly, he recalled something and asked, “It’s not on the TV at your place, is it?”
“You…” Xu Rongfei stuttered upon hearing this, but she suppressed the urge to strangle Ning Fan, calming herself before saying, “It’s at the sports stadium in the city center.”
The stadium would be packed with people; Xu Rongfei surely wouldn’t dare to do anything excessive there.
Seeing Ning Fan’s expression, Xu Rongfei immediately thought of the incident that had happened at her place, her cheeks flushing slightly.
However, Xu Rongfei felt a twinge of disappointment observing Ning Fan’s reaction.
It seemed that the last time’s failure had left a deep psychological shadow on Ning Fan.
“By the way, what made you suddenly want to watch a game?” Ning Fan asked, puzzled.
“Kobe has fully recovered, and after training, he’s ready to play.
Today is his first game back, and he asked me to invite you.
He wants you to watch his first game since coming back,” Xu Rongfei said casually.
Ning Fan nodded slightly; it was Kobe’s idea, then he was even more entrusted.
“Okay, since you agreed, let’s go,” Xu Rongfei shook her head, clearing the clutter from her mind.
She wrapped her arm affectionately around Ning Fan’s arm and said with a smile.
Ning Fan opened his mouth, thinking he hadn’t agreed yet.
But seeing Xu Rongfei’s hopeful and excited expression, the words of refusal he had in mind simply wouldn’t come out.
Never mind, it was just watching a game anyway.
It wasn’t a big deal, so why not just go?
With so many people at the stadium, Ning Fan didn’t think Xu Rongfei would have any plots or tricks up her sleeve.
“Alright, let’s go then,” Ning Fan said decisively, agreeing to her proposal.
The smile on Xu Rongfei’s face deepened as she saw Ning Fan not only agree to her request but also not resist her holding his arm.
Her heart thrilled with excitement, and she became even more affectionate in her gestures.
If one didn’t know the truth, they might well think the two were a couple.
Getting into Xu Rongfei’s car, they soon arrived at the sports stadium.
