Chapter 134 Night Castle Brother Long_1
Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning turned around, looking at the excited Tongtong.
“Daddy, Mommy, Auntie, can you always stay with Tongtong forever?” Tongtong asked with big eyes and a milky voice.
“Of course!” The three of them answered in unison.
“Then let’s high five.” Tongtong extended her tender little hand, leading the way.
Xu Fan, who adored his daughter, immediately reached out his hand, placing it second, gently pressing down on Tongtong’s little hand.
Xu Yixue looked at Xu Fan with a bit of disdain, but seeing Tongtong’s eager eyes looking at her, she too extended her delicate hands, gently placing them on the back of Xu Fan’s hand.
Ye Xiaoning, having no qualms, confidently placed her hand on top of Xu Yixue’s.
However, Xu Yixue’s hand, originally a millimeter or two away from touching Xu Fan’s, pressed tightly against it due to the pressure of Ye Xiaoning’s hand.
A flush of crimson instantly spread across Xu Yixue’s face, which, against her snow-like complexion, was especially noticeable.
Xu Fan also felt a soft palm gently resting on the back of his hand.
“Daddy, Mommy, Auntie, let’s never split up, okay?” Tongtong said to the three of them in a burst of excitement.
“Mhm!” “Mhm!” “Oh!”
Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning mumbled their agreement, wanting to appease Tongtong.
Xu Fan, hearing their murmured responses, also casually agreed with an “oh.”
The four hands pulled back after Tongtong cheered with a “Yay!”
Tongtong was ecstatic, hugging Xu Fan and shaking her little head nonstop, overjoyed.
Soon, the four of them arrived at the elevator entrance, took the elevator, and before long, reached the front doors of Xinghai Media.
The receptionist and security guards in the lobby lowered their heads the moment they saw the group emerge.
Although still not certain about Xu Fan’s exact status, it was clear that his relationship with President Xu was far from ordinary.
After the four of them walked out, Xu Yixue was about to have Ye Xiaoning fetch her BMW when Xu Fan waved his hand and said, “No need, just ride in my car. I have a child seat in it.”
“Alright then.” Xu Yixue nodded lightly, signaling her agreement.
Xu Fan then carried Tongtong to his Audi S7, opened the door, and placed her inside first.
Getting into the car, Xu Fan executed a stylish drift, driving the Audi S7 straight to Xu Yixue.
“Wow! An Audi S7, the imported model, I don’t think Zhonghai has any in stock right now, where did Xu Fan get this car from?” Ye Xiaoning exclaimed upon seeing Xu Fan’s vehicle.
Xu Yixue didn’t know much about cars, but Ye Xiaoning was very knowledgeable about them. This imported Audi S7 was currently in a state of ‘priced but not available’ due to its scarcity. Many wealthy individuals who were interested in this model had opted for other brands because they couldn’t place an order. To Ye Xiaoning’s surprise, Xu Fan was actually driving the latest Audi S7, which made her quite envious and keen to get behind the wheel to get a feel for the car.
“Is this car expensive?” Xu Yixue, seeing the astonished look on Ye Xiaoning’s face, asked softly.
“Expensive is not the word, probably over a million, but the key is it’s extremely difficult to buy. It’s a purely imported model and without the right connections, it’s very hard for ordinary people to get one.” Ye Xiaoning’s eyes shone as she looked at Xu Fan’s car and spoke slowly.
“What about its safety features?” Xu Yixue asked again.
“The safety is absolutely reassuring! It’s an import after all, and it’s a step above joint venture cars in terms of safety features.” Ye Xiaoning, who was knowledgeable about cars, patiently explained to Xu Yixue.
“The license plate on this car is quite impressive,” Xu Yixue commented, though she wasn’t very knowledgeable about cars, she could still distinguish a good license plate from a bad one.
Xu Fan’s license plate was Hai A·T6666, where ‘T’ represented Tongtong, and 6666 was a coveted number. In all of Zhonghai City, aside from the 8888 plate, this was one of the most sought-after.
Xu Yixue figured that just the license plate alone probably cost as much as the car itself.
“Please get in the car!” Xu Fan parked the car right at the entrance steps of Xinghai Media, and opened the door for the two of them.
Xu Yixue was quite satisfied with the car, so she and Ye Xiaoning stepped in and settled into their seats.
Ye Xiaoning took the passenger seat, while Xu Yixue went straight to the back row.
Seeing Xu Yixue sit beside her, Tongtong began to kick her legs and started to act coquettishly toward Xu Yixue, “Mommy… Tongtong wants a hug.”
“Sweetheart, daddy is driving now. How about a hug from mommy when we get to the zoo, okay?” Xu Yixue gently touched Tongtong’s little forehead and spoke tenderly.
Xu Fan glanced in the rearview mirror, slowly turned the steering wheel, and began to drive toward the Zhonghai City zoo. Now that there were passengers in the car, Xu Fan maintained a very steady speed, ensuring that Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning felt no jolts at all.
Not long after Xu Fan’s Audi had left Xinghai Media, Cai Xiangdong, with a sullen face, got into a Mercedes and slowly followed Xu Fan’s car.
In the car, Cai Xiangdong’s face flashed with a manic expression, and he picked up his phone to dial a number.
Soon the call connected, and an irritated voice came from the other end.
“I’m busy drinking here, who the hell is calling me!”
Hearing that the person on the other end was not in a good mood, Cai Xiangdong hurriedly flattered, “Brother Long, Brother Long, it’s me, Cai Xiangdong.”
“What Cai Xiangdong…” it was clear that Brother Long was drinking as clinking sounds could be heard over the phone. It was also quite noisy; if Brother Long’s voice hadn’t been loud, Cai Xiangdong might not have been able to hear him speak.
“Brother Long, it’s me, Cai Xiangdong. Didn’t we have a drink together at Night Castle last week? You even said I was a promising young man, surely you haven’t forgotten,” Cai Xiangdong, a vein throbbing in his forehead, said urgently.
At this, there seemed to be a slight recollection from Brother Long. The last time he was overseeing Night Castle, Cai Xiangdong got into trouble for ogling someone else’s girl and was almost beaten up by two yellow-haired punks. Fortunately, Brother Long stepped in and diffused the situation, having Cai Xiangdong pay some compensation to settle the matter.
At the time, Brother Long, noticing Cai Xiangdong’s fine attire and not seeming like an average person, offhandedly complimented him as a promising young man, but who knew Cai Xiangdong would remember it so clearly—a remark Brother Long had simply blurted out without much thought.
Grateful for being saved by Brother Long and recognizing his powerful influence, Cai Xiangdong took down his number, arranging to treat him to a meal another time. But today, after encountering the issue with Xu Fan, Cai Xiangdong decided to contact Brother Long, planning to deal with Xu Fan first and foremost.
