Chapter 166: Chapter 166: Stubborn Ding Hongxia_1

"My son is not living off women!"

Ding Hongxia angrily defended Ning Fan with a loud voice.

"Are you this pretty boy’s mom? Haha, how novel, a pretty boy living off women and he even brings his mother?"

A young man with dark circles under his eyes, clearly depleted by indulgence in alcohol and sex, stepped forward and sneered loudly.

At the same time, his lecherous eyes covertly sized up Xu Yourong.

"I’ll say it again, my son is not living off women! My son is not a pretty boy!" Ding Hongxia roared angrily once more.

"Your son made this lady spend a billion, and that doesn’t count as a pretty boy living off women? Then what does it count as? Tell me, what does it count as, you poor old hag?"

The young man mocked with ridicule in his voice.

Ding Hongxia was just an honest and straightforward woman, and in such a situation, she already felt somewhat uneasy. Now being the subject of everyone’s discussion and ridicule, she became stammering and unable to speak.

At this moment, Ning Fan finally snapped out of his focus on the Lingzhi and seeing what was happening, his face darkened. He shielded Ding Hongxia behind him and coldly said to the young man, "You’d better not be disrespectful to my mother and my girlfriend. Otherwise, I’ll make you regret it."

"Heh, what can you, a pretty boy living off an old woman, do to make me regret?" the young man said with disdain.

"I suggest you’d better not falsely accuse my boyfriend, nor be disrespectful to my future mother-in-law!"

Xu Yourong also frowned and sharply rebuked the young man.

The young man looked at Xu Yourong and was instantly captivated by her beauty. His face changed to one of eagerness and flattery as he said:

"Miss, how could a woman as beautiful and rich as you fall for a poor nobody who drags around his old mother? May I have the honor of pursuing you? Allow me to introduce myself; my name is Yuan Jigang. I am from the influential Yuan Family of Sea City. If I were your boyfriend, wouldn’t we be an unbeatable team, a perfect match made in heaven?"

After finishing his speech, Yuan Jigang reached out his hand, trying to grab Xu Yourong’s hand.

Xu Yourong’s brows knitted together, and she instinctively drew her hand back and retreated.

But Yuan Jigang persisted, and instead of stopping, his hand sped up in an attempt to grab Xu Yourong’s hand.

Just when it seemed Xu Yourong was unable to avoid him and was about to be grabbed,

"How dare you be impolite to the miss!" Qiu Li shouted warningly and was about to step forward to intervene.

Slap!

But Ning Fan had already grabbed Yuan Jigang’s hand and then pushed him.

"Ouch!"

Yuan Jigang only felt a huge invisible force hit him, and he fell on his backside to the ground.

"Fuck! You dare to lay hands on me? You poor pretty boy, you untaught dog that was born but not raised! I’ll kill you!"

Yuan Jigang struggled to get up, swearing venomously as he swatted at Ning Fan’s face.

But how could Yuan Jigang, a wastrel hollowed out by indulgence, possibly be a match for Ning Fan?

Ning Fan extended his left hand and caught Yuan Jigang’s neck before he could even touch him, lifting him entirely off the ground.

Then, his right hand reached out.

Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap! Slap!

A series of fierce slaps landed on his face, leaving him with a bruised nose and swollen face, missing two teeth.

"I just warned you. Do not be disrespectful to my mother and my girlfriend. You didn’t listen, so I had to teach you a lesson. If you still don’t learn your lesson... then I won’t mind teaching you more severely!"

Ning Fan finished speaking and flung his hand, tossing Yuan Jigang out like a dead dog.

"Damn it... I didn’t bring my bodyguards out today. You just wait... I will make sure you die!"

Yuan Jigang lay on the ground, curling his body like a cooked shrimp, staring at Ning Fan with venomous hatred, silently vowing revenge, but he dared not speak again.

Ning Fan did not want to tangle with this Yuan Jigang anymore. Amidst the complicated gazes of the auction house crowd, he left with Ding Hongxia and Xu Yourong.

"Xiao Fan, come with me alone for a moment."

After leaving the auction house, Ding Hongxia looked somewhat complicated. She made an excuse and pulled Ning Fan aside on her own.

"Xiao Fan, that Lingzhi is too valuable, you can’t accept it." The two walked aside, and Ding Hongxia spoke softly.

"Mom, actually, I can afford it myself. I haven’t had time to tell you, but Ling’er and I have established a pharmaceutical company in River City named Tianling Pharmaceutical. The company is doing very well, with profits already in the billions..."

Ning Fan gave a wry smile and hurriedly explained to Ding Hongxia.

"Xiao Fan, you better not lie to me! We may be poor, but we must have pride. We can’t really rely on a woman..." Ding Hongxia clearly didn’t believe it and shook her head.

Ning Fan had no choice but to call Lin Xiaoling right on the spot and have her confirm it.

Ding Hongxia was already older and her established ways of thinking were hard to change, no matter how much Ning Fan and Lin Xiaoling talked to her, she still believed that the siblings had previously agreed to deceive her.

Meanwhile, while Xu Yourong and Qiu Li were waiting for Ning Fan, the white-haired old man who had bid against her in the auction suddenly appeared before them.

"Miss Xu of River City, I presume?" said the white-haired old man.

"Who are you? Do you know me?" Xu Yourong asked curiously.

The white-haired old man smiled and said, "I am Ge Tiangang. Miss Xu is quite famous in River City, of course I recognize you."

"So, it’s Elder Ge. Do you need something from me?" Xu Yourong asked.

"Miss Xu, I don’t mean to alarm you, but I’ve come to save your life. Your forehead is darkened, indicating you may encounter great danger today."

Ge Tiangang spoke to Xu Yourong as if he knew something profound.

"Oh? My forehead is darkened? I’m destined for a violent mishap today?"

Xu Yourong was stunned and then, without betraying any emotion, asked, "Elder Ge, how can I avert this violent mishap? Surely it doesn’t require a Lingzhi that’s a hundred and fifty years old to resolve, does it?"
