785: Chapter 774: The Mysterious Zhu Xuetao 785: Chapter 774: The Mysterious Zhu Xuetao In Zang City, the Yunteng Family had replaced the Family Head with someone new, and that person was Teng Feiyue.
Ning Fan didn’t know much about this, only aware that the Yunteng family was too occupied to deal with him now.
That day, having some free time, Ning Fan went to the office.
Zhu Xuetao, the Minister, strolled leisurely over to Ning Fan and unexpectantly placed his hand on Ning Fan’s shoulder, nearly causing Ning Fan to jump in fright.
The guy moved so silently that Ning Fan hadn’t noticed Zhu Xuetao approaching from behind, and couldn’t help but glare at him.
Seeing Ning Fan’s accusatory look, Zhu Xuetao quickly waved his hands and said with a sheepish laugh, “I saw you rarely come to the office, so I just wanted to greet you.
Why the excitement, huh?”
While speaking, Zhu Xuetao sized up Ning Fan, a meaningful look flashing deep in his eyes, but this was minimally concealed and went unnoticed by Ning Fan in front of him.
Ning Fan had come to the office today just to casually check in and wouldn’t stay long.
He’d be leaving soon, so his chat with Zhu Xuetao was brief.
Seeing that Ning Fan was about to leave, Zhu Xuetao pursed his lips and said somewhat disinterestedly, “I thought you’d stay longer this time at the office.
You’re leaving already?”
“What, you, a man, can’t bear to see me leave?
That’s kind of gross!”
Ning Fan folded his arms and looked at Zhu Xuetao with a shiver of disgust.
The clingy tone of Zhu Xuetao made him feel uncomfortable, and for a moment, Ning Fan’s gaze towards Zhu Xuetao turned somewhat peculiar.
Realizing he’d been misunderstood, Zhu Xuetao rolled his eyes and replied irritably, “What are you even saying?
I’m a normal guy who likes beautiful women, not stinky men like you!”
“‘Stinky men’ coming from you, that’s really disgusting.
I’m begging you, please just stop!”
Ning Fan, with a pleading look, mercilessly teased Zhu Xuetao.
After a few back-and-forths and playful remarks, Zhu Xuetao then said, “Huo Zhanyuan, that guy, even when you’re not here, still comes to work regularly.
What kind of magic potion have you given him?”
Initially, it was thought that Huo Zhanyuan would only come to the office when Ning Fan was around, but in reality, that wasn’t the case at all.
He was so diligent that even the security department started questioning their life choices.
Could it be that this young master was serious about working as a security guard at Xu Corporation?
Hearing this, Ning Fan couldn’t help but laugh.
To be honest, he also found Huo Zhanyuan commendable for his efforts.
If the young man really turned over a new leaf, that would be great, but what he feared was that the young man might not keep it up.
Therefore, Ning Fan kept deliberately sidelining the young man, planning to see how long he could last.
If Huo Zhanyuan could keep it up, earning Qiuran’s forgiveness was definitely certain.
After all, Huo Zhanyuan was still her brother.
If the young man truly reformed, sibling reconciliation was possible.
As for the other members of the Huo Family, sorry, neither Ning Fan nor Qiuran could see any sincerity from them, except from Huo Zhanyuan.
Forgiving Huo Zhanyuan meant only forgiving him alone.
As for the other Huo family members, they were out of luck.
Ning Fan absolutely did not want to plead for any Huo family members other than Huo Zhanyuan, because at least Huo Zhanyuan’s efforts were apparent to him.
“What does it matter to you what he does?
If he wants to be a good security guard here, then let him fulfill his wish.”
Ning Fan responded to Zhu Xuetao, telling him not to worry about Huo Zhanyuan.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with Zhu Xuetao, Ning Fan then left the security department.
By a floor-to-ceiling window, Zhu Xuetao stood alone, gazing down at a figure below.
A glint of cold light flashed in his eyes, followed by an irresistible chuckle, “Umbrella, you really know how to stir up trouble, even calling out the ‘Umbrella’ who’s been low-key for years…”
If Ning Fan were still here, upon hearing Zhu Xuetao’s words, he would have been stunned, mouth agape, because Zhu Xuetao knew far too much, as if he had completely mastered what was happening around Ning Fan.
However, as for all this, Ning Fan remained completely in the dark.
He did not know that someone nearby was silently watching over him and had even once saved his life.
Zhu Xuetao naturally knew more about the Umbrella than Ning Fan did.
Such a mysterious organization was only known in its terrifying peak times by a select few, especially the current leaders, numbers one and two, whose strengths were unfathomable.
Zhu Xuetao was unsure if Ning Fan could defeat the Umbrella this time, but he still had high hopes for him.
Meanwhile, Ning Fan had already driven out of the garage.
Not long after exiting the compound, a voluptuous woman was waving at him by the roadside, even nearly jumping out to directly block his car.
“Lady, are you trying to be a traffic killer here?”
Ning Fan stopped the car, rolled down the window, and beamed at the woman dressed in jean shorts and a crop top.
The woman’s figure indeed caught the eye, but why would she block traffic like this?
“Handsome, could you give me a lift?”
The beauty threw Ning Fan a seductive glance, leaning into the car window, her lush red lips tantalizingly irresistible.
The prominent cleavage exposed before Ning Fan grabbed his attention, the glimpse of white skin leaving a lasting impression.
Ning Fan chuckled quietly, cursing inwardly what a ‘fairy’ she was, a mysterious sparkle flashing through his eyes as he opened the car door to let the attractive woman in.
“Where are you heading, miss?”
Ning Fan curiously asked while the woman in the passenger seat struck a provocative pose.
“Where I go isn’t important, what’s important is where you want to take me!”
Her words carried heavy implications, which might excite most men, but Ning Fan just smiled.
“Then I’ll take you for a drive!”
Saying so, Ning Fan started the engine, planning to take the woman for a tour.
Ning Fan drove swiftly, heading straight to the outskirts and then stopped by the roadside, looking meaningfully at the woman beside him.
“Handsome, are you thinking about having a wild time with me here?”
The seductive woman licked her red lips, then pulled at her top suggestively.
“I do have some experience with wild times; I just don’t know if you can surprise me!”
Ning Fan grinned broadly, his eyes glinting with a piercing coldness.
