743: Chapter 732: Ning Fan is Too Formidable 743: Chapter 732: Ning Fan is Too Formidable About his true identity, Teng Feiyue had ultimately not told Ning Fan, only assuring that Teng Zhong and the others would definitely not bother Ning Fan again.
Seeing her confidence—even though she still had not revealed what her true identity really was—Ning Fan could more or less guess it.
During this encounter with Teng Feiyue, he had been observing her performance all along.
Especially at the end, the way Teng Feiyue assured him made Ning Fan certain that Teng Feiyue’s identity was absolutely extraordinary.
This confidence, and the look in Teng Feiyue’s eyes, allowed Ning Fan to see that she was not afraid of Teng Zhong and them at all.
And it seemed that Teng Feiyue was very important to Teng Zhong and the others, just like the first time he met them yesterday.
The look they gave, he now remembered, seemed more about the fact that Teng Feiyue was with Ning Fan.
Thinking it over carefully, there were many dubious points, and Ning Fan was close to guessing Teng Feiyue’s real identity.
However, just like he didn’t know their identities, they also didn’t know his; only Teng Feiyue was still left in the dark.
Ning Fan was probably already clear about the role Teng Feiyue played in all of this.
“Although you assured me like this, I’m still very worried.”
Ning Fan openly expressed his concerns as if not trusting that Teng Feiyue really had such ability.
This caused Teng Feiyue a headache, not knowing how to explain to Ning Fan, because she still didn’t want to reveal her identity.
However, noticing Ning Fan’s increasingly skeptical gaze, Teng Feiyue thought about it and finally explained this way, “Actually, they just came to take me back.
They didn’t intend to target you specifically.
They probably thought you were a bad person!”
This explanation, while not revealing her identity, also clarified that Teng Zhong and those people actually bore no hostility towards Teng Feiyue and hinted to Ning Fan that she had significant influence over them.
Upon hearing this, Ning Fan’s eyes lit up, and he finally understood the woman who called herself Feiyue.
He hadn’t expected that she was also from the Yunteng Family and that her status was absolutely not ordinary, certainly not just a regular member of the Yunteng Family.
From the way she confidently said that Teng Zhong and the others would listen to her, Ning Fan could assure that if they really took this person into their hands, then Teng Zhong and the others would definitely be very wary of them.
No, Teng Zhong and the others were already wary; otherwise, they wouldn’t be so eager to target Huo Qiuran.
Ning Fan could now deduce what Teng Zhong and the others were thinking.
“Perhaps, they aren’t bad people…” Ning Fan said smilingly with an eloquent tone.
For Teng Feiyue, they of course weren’t bad people, but it was definitely not only because of Teng Feiyue that they were targeting Ning Fan.
Unlike Teng Feiyue, who still knew nothing, Ning Fan was well aware that because he held Teng Huayang, and they thought the woman before him had also fallen into his hands, they must be quite anxious now.
“If that’s the case, then I’ll just wait for the good news.”
Ning Fan stood up without showing any expression.
He had no intention of capturing Teng Feiyue, as it was no longer necessary; keeping Teng Feiyue within his sight was enough.
This woman didn’t feel like the other people from the Yunteng family but like a woman with a normal personality; therefore, if possible, Ning Fan still did not plan on making a move against her.
“Wait!”
Just as Ning Fan was about to leave, Teng Feiyue suddenly called out to him.
Ning Fan stopped in his tracks and turned back, looking at Teng Feiyue with puzzled curiosity, wondering why she had stopped him.
“You haven’t eaten yet, have you?” Teng Feiyue asked somewhat awkwardly, her eyes showing a tentative desire.
It was her first time inviting a man.
Ning Fan was momentarily stunned, then quickly understood.
With a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, he asked, “What, are you treating?”
Teng Feiyue nodded her head, mentally cheering herself on, and replied calmly, “I haven’t properly thanked you for yesterday’s incident!”
It wasn’t just to express gratitude, but also to apologize, especially since, according to Ning Fan, Teng Zhong and his group had caused him trouble last night.
To Teng Feiyue, she bore some responsibility for that incident.
Now that there was an opportunity, she might as well use it to both apologize and express her thanks at once.
One meal would settle two matters, and at this moment, Teng Feiyue admired her own cunning.
Ning Fan thought for a moment and found no reason to refuse.
After all, he had nothing urgent to attend to, so accepting the invitation seemed harmless.
“Well then, I shall humbly comply,” he agreed.
After that, the two left the hotel together.
As both of them appeared outside together, a figure trembled uncontrollably upon seeing them.
“Miss Feiyue!”
Teng Zhong leaned against the wall, staring in astonishment at both Ning Fan and Teng Feiyue.
After some searching, having finally traced Ning Fan’s whereabouts, Teng Zhong had stealthily followed him, intending to see exactly what was going on with him, and why his Gu insect hadn’t acted.
However, what he hadn’t expected was to see Ning Fan and Teng Feiyue chatting joyously.
Teng Zhong was completely dumbfounded, as if struck by a bolt from the blue.
He had come today merely to confirm whether the Gu insect inside Ning Fan had acted.
After finding Ning Fan’s trace, he followed him and discovered Ning Fan behaving as if nothing was wrong.
Teng Zhong began to suspect that Teng Xi might have deceived him.
Who infected with the Heart-Eating Gu could act like Ning Fan did?
But considering Ning Fan’s capabilities, Teng Zhong thought that perhaps Ning Fan’s constitution was too strong, or maybe Ning Fan had already detected the Gu insect and had figured out a way to deal with it.
These guesses were not baseless, and Teng Zhong had to admit Ning Fan’s prowess, so it was entirely possible.
Just when Ning Fan entered the hotel, Teng Zhong was about to give up, but he ultimately decided to wait patiently because he recalled another possibility, that the Gu insect had not yet acted.
And finally, what Teng Zhong hadn’t expected was to see Yunteng Family’s Miss Teng Feiyue walking shoulder to shoulder with Ning Fan out of the hotel, chatting merrily and appearing to have a close relationship.
In an instant, Teng Zhong began to wonder if Teng Feiyue had betrayed them, maybe she had been involved with Ning Fan all along?
But just as this thought emerged, Teng Zhong forcefully shook his head, casting the idea out of his mind.
That wasn’t his business to consider; he only needed to think about how to bring Teng Feiyue back and report everything he saw and heard to the Family Head.
Everything else was none of his concern.
So after hesitating for a while, Teng Zhong still followed them.
