Chapter 204: Chapter 204: Seeing Xu Yourong Again_1

On the outskirts of the provincial city, at the Xu Family villa.

Xu Yourong sat listlessly in the living room.

She had been brought back to the provincial city by Xu Guoping a week ago, and the news of her return had spread throughout the high society of the provincial city.

Suddenly, many scions of the provincial city’s prominent families launched an offensive, vying for her attention.

But Xu Yourong, why on earth would she care about these people?

In her heart, there was only Ning Fan.

Knock knock knock...

Just then, a series of knocks echoed from the door.

Xu Yourong got up to open it.

Standing at the doorway was a tall and handsome young man in a suit.

The man’s name was Kong Haibo, a member of the Kong Family, one of the foremost families in the provincial city.

With a bunch of roses in his hands, Kong Haibo immediately extended it gracefully as he saw Xu Yourong and eagerly said, "Miss Xu, these flowers are as beautiful as you. Please allow me to give them to you."

"Kong Haibo, please stop sending me flowers. I won’t accept them! And stop coming to see me, I’ve already made it very clear to you, I don’t have the slightest interest in you!"

Xu Yourong said bluntly.

Kong Haibo smiled faintly, undeterred, "Miss Xu, as the old saying goes, ’For a modest and virtuous lady, a gentleman is a good match.’ For a peerless beauty like yourself, you might not like me, but you can’t refuse my pursuit! Pursuing you is my right."

"Kong Haibo, can you please not harass me? I have a boyfriend! His name is Ning Fan! Even if you’re shameless, surely you aren’t to this extent, right?"

Xu Yourong said helplessly.

"Ning Fan? You’re talking about that kid from River City? Heh heh, Miss Xu, who in our provincial city’s circle doesn’t know that he is just a shield you found in River City? Miss Xu, my feelings for you are sincere. You shouldn’t use that shield to block me—it won’t stop anything."

Kong Haibo said with a smile.

Seeing how brazen Kong Haibo was, Xu Yourong had no choice but to call out, "Qiu Li."

"Yes, Miss."

Qiu Li quickly came over, unceremoniously pushing Kong Haibo outwards.

Qiu Li was a Martial Artist, and Kong Haibo, whose body had been worn out by pleasure-seeking, couldn’t possibly withstand her. He was immediately pushed back repeatedly, nearly toppling over.

Slam!

Qiu Li shut the front door.

No matter how much Kong Haibo yelled from the outside, they ignored him.

After a while, perhaps having exhausted his energy, Kong Haibo stopped shouting and, feeling disgruntled, left.

"Miss, you know, you don’t have to dismiss all these provincial city young masters with one stroke. Even if you don’t have a good first impression of them, you could still give them a chance, maybe after you get to know them, you’ll find they’re not so bad after all? Of course, I’m not talking about that Kong Haibo; he’s obviously an ultimate sleazebag..."

In the living room, Qiu Li advised.

"Qiu Li, you haven’t accepted a bribe from some man to speak well of him, have you? Don’t you know that my heart belongs to Ning Fan only?"

Xu Yourong said half-jokingly.

"Miss, I swear, if I took someone’s money to speak up for him, I’d deserve the worst fate!"

Qiu Li hastily swore an oath.

"Then don’t talk about this subject again. If you have nothing else to do, help me check what Ning Fan has been up to in River City these past few days," Xu Yourong said.

"Miss, you’re already back in the provincial city! The things between you and Ning Fan in River City, just think of them as a dream. Now that you have woken up, you’re back in reality! The gap between you and Ning Fan is too great; the two of you are impossible!"

Qiu Li mustered her courage and spoke again.

"No, River City is reality, certainly not a dream," Xu Yourong shook her head, and images of her time in River City with Ning Fan flashed through her mind, her lips lifting into an involuntary smile.

Since returning to the provincial city, she had rarely been happy, with the only happy moments being her memories with Ning Fan.

Seeing this, Qiu Li clenched her teeth and continued, "Miss, even if you and Ning Fan had real feelings in the past, what of it? Now you’re miles apart, and you can’t even see each other. You should know, long-distance relationships fail ninety-nine percent of the time! You have no idea if he’s thinking of you or if he’s having a jolly good time wrapped in the arms of another woman, or enjoying a romantic escapade with yet another lady!"

"I trust Ning Fan—he’s not that kind of person," Xu Yourong said without hesitation.

"Ning Fan might not have been that kind of person in the past, but Miss, people change. Have you ever seen anyone who never changes? If the Ning Fan of the past changed from not liking you to liking you, how can you be so sure that the Ning Fan of the present won’t change from liking you to not liking you?" Qiu Li said as if reciting a tongue twister.

"Qiu Li, you—"

Xu Yourong was getting a bit angry, her expression stern, as she was about to respond.

Knock knock knock!

Once again, a knock at the door interrupted them.

"It must be that Kong Haibo again! Qiu Li, go send him away!" Xu Yourong said, her mood sour.

Qiu Li nodded, and as she walked to the door, she sternly shouted, "Kong Haibo, if you harass our miss again, I swear I’ll beat you so bad you won’t be able to take care of yourself..."

"Qiu Li, look carefully, who am I?"

At the door, Ning Fan interrupted Qiu Li, speaking indifferently.
