Chapter 630: Chapter 630

Yang Fan interspersed truth and fiction as he detailed the recent events to Bai Mengzhu like he was telling a story, then concluded by saying, "It’s not that I’ve been neglecting you, oh no, it’s just that I really haven’t had the time, the days have been too hectic."

The previously calm and collected Wang Daqiang, who had been sitting aside, couldn’t take it anymore after listening and promptly left.

He was utterly irritated by Yang Fan.

A newly single man, constantly subjected to this kid’s ever-changing ways of rubbing salt in his wounds. Even though his heart was almost at the point of being as still as an ancient well when it came to romance, he was still utterly uncomfortable due to the irritation.

The kicker is that Yang Fan’s objects of love and affection weren’t just one person, but several, and perhaps even a whole group.

After all, just from what Wang Daqiang had seen these past few days, there were several women already.

Wang Daqiang couldn’t fathom how Yang Fan managed to be everywhere in love, leaving a bit of affection in every corner.

To him, this seemed as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

He had already found it extremely difficult to deal with just one, and in the end, his genuine feelings had gone to the dogs.

But, there was also genuine envy.

Yang Fan had been on the phone for a long time, and after chatting for over an hour, Bai Mengzhu’s mood finally seemed to calm down.

With a hint of grievance in her voice, she said to Yang Fan, "Have you guessed what the distinctive characteristic I mentioned earlier is now?"

Yang Fan’s brain instantly felt overloaded.

How come the conversation, after going round and round, has come back to this point again?

"Neglected you!" After much thought, Yang Fan firmly stated.

However, as to the real reason why Bai Mengzhu might have felt this way, this explanation shouldn’t be wrong.

"Close, but not quite," Bai Mengzhu said. "It’s that you suddenly lost interest in me."

"Do you understand how damaging that signal is to a woman? It’s comparable to a magnitude ten earthquake!"

"No, no, that’s absolutely not the case, how could I possibly lose interest in you," Yang Fan immediately responded, "Regardless of what you think, I definitely, absolutely don’t have such thoughts."

"Whether you have those thoughts or not, that’s the feeling you gave me," Bai Mengzhu said with an emphatic snort, "Just got with someone, and then you turn your nose up at them, tell me, what would you think?"

Yang Fan: ...

"My bad, my fault."

Yang Fan could only admit his fault, in this matter, Bai Mengzhu was not wrong.

Thinking more broadly, Yang Fan also thought of Yu Hong Dou.

He had contacted this girl even less frequently recently.

She had probably been secretly cursing him in some corner who knows how many times.

Yu Hong Dou was the most direct woman to tell him that she wanted to be his girlfriend, but their communication was also the most straightforward.

Usually, whenever Yang Fan messaged or called, Yu Hong Dou responded instantly, but she rarely took the initiative to message or call Yang Fan, which often led to him forgetting about her.

After all, he was busy every day, and his phone was even busier.

Just like this moment, it’s been over an hour, and the work report still wasn’t finished.

After a sincere explanation, Bai Mengzhu finally let go of the little grievances in her heart, even saying she would make dumplings for Yang Fan tomorrow. Yang Fan responded with a few jests before hanging up the phone.

Putting down his phone, he let out a long, stifled sigh.

Making that call was as exhausting as having fought a battle.

After getting up and freshening up, Yang Fan realized that Wang Daqiang had left at some point.

Yang Fan had no choice but to pick up his recently used, slightly overheated phone again and called Wang Daqiang to ask where he was.

Wang Daqiang reported the name of a restaurant to Yang Fan, right on this street.

Yang Fan put away his phone, checked his personal belongings again, and then went downstairs to check out of the room.

The restaurant Wang Daqiang mentioned wasn’t far from the hotel. As Yang Fan walked and looked around, he saw the sign after just a few steps, with Wang Daqiang waiting at the entrance.

"Fanzi, you really are something," Wang Daqiang said with a shake of his head as he met him.

Yang Fan knew what he was referring to and just smiled faintly, handing over a cigarette, "Keep it down, keep it down!"

"Shall we eat first?" Wang Daqiang said with a laugh, shaking his head, "I didn’t know what you liked, so I ordered some of the restaurant’s specialties, see if there’s anything you want to add."

"No need, I’m not fussy about food," Yang Fan said.

Back in the private room, Wang Daqiang asked Yang Fan mysteriously, "Fanzi, give me a quick lesson, how did you actually do it? Honestly, I had given up on love, but these past few days you’ve really stirred me up fiercely, my heart can’t take it, it’s starting to yearn for something."

"If you’re talking about experience, I really have none. It feels like the things happening to me are better explained by fate. Some people, it seems, we were never supposed to cross paths, but then we easily became acquainted and hit it off in a very short time. That’s not something you can clearly explain with experience or skill," Yang Fan said.

"I’m not joking with you, I’m serious, I don’t have any tricks, and not much experience either. If I had to mention experience, it would just be being a bit more patient, taking care of their emotions, paying more attention and the like. But these things, I know you do them far better than I do."

Wang Daqiang scratched the back of his head, "I didn’t use to feel anything about romance luck, but now I’ve actually come to realize, what you said makes sense."

"So it really is that when fate is due, it will come, and when it’s not, don’t force it, right? Looks like when I have time I really should get my fortune told to clear things up, to know whether I have it in my destiny or not. If not, I’ll stop struggling."

"No need to calculate, you’ll feel it when fate comes," Yang Fan said.

Wang Daqiang paused, "Seems there’s some truth to that."

"If you’re not at ease, go ask Old Liang to do a reading, he’s quite skilled in this regard," Yang Fan said with a smile, "There’s also a boss named Wei Jin, who’s great at this. Conveniently, he’s the one buying your silver coins, you can ask him to help you take a look. Getting a reading from him alone seems quite expensive."

"Alright."

Before Yang Fan and Wang Daqiang had finished their meal, Xiang Xue Ting delivered some very bad news.

Yao Wei had died, and Lu Qiuyang had recanted his testimony.

This message left Yang Fan stunned for a long time.

Was it really possible to do anything one pleased with enough power and influence?

There was no need for any doubt, it was clear that this was Chen Zhong silencing someone.

"What’s Lu Qiuyang’s story after recanting?" Yang Fan asked, suppressing the rising anger in his chest.

"You owed him a million, and moreover, he provided an IOU. Through his testimony, we found the IOU at the pawnshop," Xiang Xue Ting said.
