Chapter 308: Chapter 308 The Three-Month Deadline of Su Qingcheng _1

Before Ning Fan left River City, he was worried about the safety of his foster mother.

At that time, Su Qingcheng took the initiative to offer help and left her own guard team in River City to protect Ning Fan’s foster mother and others. The price was that Ning Fan had to agree to do her a favor.

"As long as it’s within my capabilities and doesn’t violate my principles, I can agree," Ning Fan said in a deep voice.

Su Qingcheng nodded, "Okay, now I need you to fulfill that promise. I want you to pretend to be my boyfriend for three months."

"Pretend to be your boyfriend?" Ning Fan was stunned.

Su Qingcheng sighed, "Those suitors in Capital City are like flies; I need a shield. I didn’t come to you before because I wasn’t sure if you were strong enough to protect yourself. But looking at the recent rankings on the Qingyun List, your strength is not weak. You are capable of self-protection. So, I want you to help me with this, to pretend to be my boyfriend so those flies from Capital City give up."

Ning Fan furrowed his brows and shook his head, "Miss Su, I cannot agree to this."

"You won’t agree? That’s fine, then I won’t cancel our engagement!" Su Qingcheng threatened.

With a smile on her face, Xu Yourong chimed in, "Not cancelling the engagement sounds great. This way, the three of us can get married together!"

Su Qingcheng’s face turned crimson with embarrassment, but she still bit her cheek and said, "Are you going to help or not?"

"I can’t. It goes against my principles," Ning Fan insisted.

The two were at a standoff for a while until Su Qingcheng stamped her foot in frustration and pulled Xu Yourong over, "Yourong, help me out here, he’s not keeping his word!"

Xu Yourong said with a smile, "Ning Fan, just agree to her. I also know about her suitors in Capital City, they really are quite bothersome."

"But..."

"Don’t worry, I don’t mind, I’ll allow you to help Qing Cheng with this," Xu Yourong said with a smile.

After much persuasion from Xu Yourong, Ning Fan reluctantly nodded in agreement, "Alright, I’ll help you, but just for three months."

"No problem, three months! Once the three months are up, I will formally cancel our engagement with you!"

Su Qingcheng immediately took out her phone and held it up, "Let’s take a photo together first. I’ll post it to my social circle to scare off those flies from Capital City!"

"Heehee, sure, I’ll help you take the photo!"

Xu Yourong took Su Qingcheng’s phone and started directing the two on where to stand.

"Come on, a bit closer... Don’t stand so far apart!"

"Get closer, you two look like strangers right now."

"Closer, closer, do you even know how to take a photo?"

Under Xu Yourong’s direction, Su Qingcheng and Ning Fan reluctantly moved closer together.

The distance between them grew smaller, close enough to catch the scent of one another.

Su Qingcheng slightly tilted her head, sneaking glances at Ning Fan, contemplating his well-defined jawline.

"This guy is quite good-looking..."

Click!

The sound of the shutter snapped Su Qingcheng out of her reverie as Xu Yourong approached with the phone, saying with a smile, "Look, how is this photo?"

In the photo, Su Qingcheng was almost nestled in Ning Fan’s embrace, looking at him with a head tilt and a trace of tenderness in her eyes, making them truly resemble a couple.

"It’s, it’s not bad," said Su Qingcheng with a slightly flushed face, grabbing the phone and turning to Ning Fan, "Are you sure you’ve thought this through? Being my fake boyfriend comes with a lot of pressure."

Xu Yourong came closer, still smiling, "Don’t worry, Ning Fan can definitely handle it. Didn’t you see how well he adapted when he was my boyfriend?"

Ning Fan nodded, "As long as I can cancel the engagement with you, any amount of pressure is manageable."

Su Qingcheng was slightly irritated by his comment and petulantly posted the photo to her social media.

Among her friends were many young gentlemen from Capital City. They were shocked when they saw the photo, and they quickly forwarded it to Su Qingcheng’s suitors.

"Who is this guy, getting so close to Miss Su?"

"Dammit! Find out now! I want all the information on this guy!"

"I want to see who is so bold to compete with me for Su Qingcheng!"

Upon hearing the news, Su Qingcheng’s suitors were infuriated and immediately sent their people to investigate Ning Fan’s background in the photo.

In the villa, after posting to her social circle, Su Qingcheng dragged Xu Yourong and left.

After seeing off the two ladies, Shuang’er approached Ning Fan, puffing up angrily, "Master, that Su Qingcheng woman doesn’t seem like a good person, and yet you’re helping her!"

"Why do you think she’s not a good person?" Ning Fan asked with a smile.

"She’s just a guest, yet she commands around the host, never saying a good word about you. Isn’t that bad?" Shuang’er pouted, "Miss Xu, on the other hand, is beautiful and gentle, and she would really suit being my master’s wife."

Ning Fan smiled and patted her head, "If Miss Xu heard what you said, she would be very happy."

He then sighed deeply, "Sigh, I never expected canceling an engagement to be so troublesome, it’s really not easy."

"Don’t worry Master, you’ll definitely succeed," Shuang’er encouraged.

Ning Fan gave a wry smile and shook his head, "Let’s go, I have some time today, let’s see how your cultivation is going."

Overjoyed, Shuang’er quickly followed Ning Fan to the side of the Spirit Gathering Array.

"Come on, let’s see your cultivation."

Although Ning Fan didn’t want Shuang’er to seek revenge, as her master, he still needed to guide her with all his heart and effort.

Shuang’er sat cross-legged, nodded obediently, and started cultivating.
