Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Unavoidable Matters_1

"Whether my father has agreed to my relationship with Ning Fan is a family matter for the Xu Family, and it’s none of your business," Xu Yourong said with sudden change in her complexion, her tone cold.

"Under normal circumstances, of course it wouldn’t involve me, but now that Ning Fan has broken my son’s leg and refuses to treat him, it does involve me!" Bao Hankang said in a deep voice.

"Is that so? Then what do you want to do?" Xu Yourong asked, lifting her chin, her tone still cold.

"I will go to the provincial capital to consult Mr. Xu and ask him to preside over justice."

After Bao Hankang finished speaking, he turned and left.

Watching Bao Hankang’s retreating figure, Xu Yourong’s brows lightly furrowed.

Her biggest concern regarding her situation with Ning Fan was her family’s attitude.

But it was an issue she couldn’t possibly avoid...

Even if Bao Hankang did not go to the provincial capital to find her father, her father was likely to return to River City soon.

Because the Ghost Festival Boxing Meeting was approaching...

All she could do was hope that Ning Fan would be able to handle it!

The man she had set her sights on was not going to disappoint her!

With this thought in mind, Xu Yourong’s eyes filled with confidence once again.

...

In Ning Fan’s villa, he was sitting cross-legged on the rooftop terrace, slowly opening his eyes.

Having cultivated for an entire night, although he had yet to break through to a new realm, his strength had made some progress, and the quantity of Azure Spiritual Energy in his Dantian had increased.

Ring ring ring...

The ringing of his cell phone sounded.

Baldy Qiang was calling to report on the sales issue of the Rejuvenation Pills.

Over the past few days, sales of the Rejuvenation Pills had made progress but were lower than expected.

He had thought that the Rejuvenation Pills would rapidly become all the rage in River City, but they only managed to gain some fame within a small area. Out of the one hundred pills Ning Fan gave Baldy Qiang last time, only about fifty had been sold to date.

The main reason was that Baldy Qiang, after all, was from the underworld and lacked resources from higher society.

Those who had the financial power to buy Rejuvenation Pills in bulk were mostly from the upper echelons of society, yet they had limited trust in Baldy Qiang.

"I’ll think of something," Ning Fan said, a frown on his face as he ended the call.

Originally, selling more than fifty Rejuvenation Pills in a few days, and at the price of two hundred thousand per pill, had brought him about ten million in returns.

Even after splitting the profits 70-30, the speed of earning money was already quite fast.

But Ning Fan felt it was still too slow.

Based on his experience from the last auction, the price tag for century-old medicinal ingredients was extremely high.

Although there was no news about auctions for medicinal materials in the last few days, one could never know when they might pop up, so he needed to quickly prepare the funds needed to purchase medicines.

He certainly couldn’t rely on Xu Yourong for money if it really came down to that, could he?

Furthermore, he had publicly declared he would make it into the top ten of the Qingyun List.

Now, with less than a month left before the Qingyun List selection, he needed to accelerate his money-making.

As Ning Fan pondered, Li Wanshan also called.

"Mr. Ning, may I invite you to lunch today? There’s no way for me and Xu Yan to repay the great kindness you’ve shown us, but we’d like to invite you to lunch to express our gratitude," Li Wanshan said.

Ning Fan initially didn’t want to go, but suddenly had an idea and agreed, then added, "Do you know someone named Baldy Qiang? Invite him too."

"Alright! Mr. Ning, I’ll call Baldy Qiang right away and send you the address of the restaurant on your phone," Li Wanshan said joyfully.

Around noon, Ning Fan noticed that Lin Xiaoling hadn’t gone out to look for a job that day and said, "Ling’er, why don’t you join me for lunch?"

Lin Xiaoling hesitated at first, but Ning Fan, wanting her to interact more with society, didn’t argue and took her out with him.

The two hailed a cab and arrived at the restaurant.

The restaurant was named Wanshan Hotel.

The name alone made it clear it was owned by Li Wanshan.

"Eh? Lin Xiaoling?"

As they walked into the hotel lobby, they heard a woman’s voice calling out from the side.

"Jiang Ran?"

Lin Xiaoling turned her head and saw it was her former classmate, Jiang Ran.

"Xiaoling, long time no see, you’re still so pretty. Where are you working at nowadays, or have you already married into a wealthy family and become a rich lady?" Jiang Ran walked over quickly.

"Uh... I haven’t married yet, and I’m actually looking for a job right now," Lin Xiaoling said awkwardly.

"Oh, I see."

Jiang Ran’s eyebrows raised slightly, then she took Lin Xiaoling’s arm and said, "Xiaoling, you’re here for the class reunion today, right?"

"Class reunion? No..." Lin Xiaoling was taken aback and shook her head.

"Whether it is or isn’t, you’re here now, so come join us! Is this your boyfriend? Come on, let’s go together," Jiang Ran said.

"No, he’s my brother, Ning Fan."

"Brother, this is my classmate, Jiang Ran."

Lin Xiaoling introduced them to each other and then said to Jiang Ran, "We’d rather not attend, let’s not bother... "

"Oh, come on, let’s go, Xiaoling’s brother, come with us. Us old classmates haven’t seen Xiaoling for so long, and we really miss her!"

Jiang Ran spoke while pulling Ning Fan and Lin Xiaoling toward a private room.

"Ling’er, since there’s a class reunion by coincidence, you should go. I’ll accompany you inside for a bit before leaving," Ning Fan said, since he had wanted Lin Xiaoling to socialize more.

Next, Ning Fan and Lin Xiaoling followed Jiang Ran into a private room.

There were about a dozen people seated inside, a mix of men and women.

"Look who’s here, everyone! It’s our class’s great beauty, Lin Xiaoling!"

Entering the room, Jiang Ran announced loudly.

"Lin Xiaoling? You’re a rare guest indeed; you missed the last few class reunions!"

"Wow, Xiaoling, you’re still so beautiful, just like before, you haven’t changed a bit!"

A few classmates immediately approached her.

"Hello everyone," Lin Xiaoling said hurriedly.

Just after the classmates exchanged a few words with Lin Xiaoling, Jiang Ran suddenly spoke up loudly again,

"Oh, by the way, Xiaoling just asked me to help her find a job. Does anyone have any appropriate job opportunities to recommend? She’s having a tough time and isn’t picky about the job. A monthly salary of one or two thousand yuan would be fine. Jobs like company janitor, garbage sorter, or street sweeper are all acceptable."

Jiang Ran’s smile had completely changed from before, as if she had become a different person.
