Chapter 430: Chapter 430
Ding Fan returned to the room, where Mu Zi was still sound asleep.
Having used the Soul Summoning Banner, her main soul had now returned to its rightful place.
Ding Fan gently infused a stream of True Qi into Mu Zi's body, and after around three minutes, Mu Zi slowly opened her eyes.
"Brother Fan..." Mu Zi opened her eyes slowly, her beautiful, watery eyes making her look very pitiable. "Brother Fan, I had a dream just now where I was compelled to join many bad people in attacking you..."
As Mu Zi spoke, tears began to fill her eyes.
Ding Fan gently touched Mu Zi's head. "It was just a dream, don't take it to heart."
Mu Zi nodded. "I thought it was just a dream, otherwise how could I possibly join others in attacking you, Brother Fan?"
"Alright, silly girl, go to sleep..." Ding Fan said softly to Mu Zi.
Seeing that Mu Zi was alright, Ding Fan then turned and sat down in a meditative pose on the sofa nearby.
Mu Zi, however, felt somewhat restless; she stretched lazily, suddenly remembering that she had been in the bathroom taking a shower. How did it happen that in the blink of an eye, she found herself here?
Thinking of this, Mu Zi became a bit nervous and pulled away the blanket covering her body to find that she was naked under it, not a thread on her.
Mu Zi tilted her head, trying hard to recall.
She had just been taking a shower, so how did she appear back in her room so suddenly?
Mu Zi vaguely remembered slipping in the bathroom...
'Could it be... Could it be that I slipped, fainted, and Brother Fan carried me back?' Mu Zi thought this and couldn't help but blush.
Despite her wild and crazy demeanor, Mu Zi was still a girl at heart.
Brother Fan must have seen her entire body... With this realization, the little fairy Mu Zi was surprised to find that she wasn't very embarrassed. Instead, she felt somewhat thrilled.
Could it be that she actually liked being seen by Ding Fan?
With this thought, Mu Zi glanced at Ding Fan nearby. She wondered, had he possibly stolen a kiss while she was unconscious...
Maybe Brother Fan really did sneak a kiss while she was out...
At this, the little fairy Mu Zi's spirits lifted...
The next day, early in the morning, Ding Fan and Mu Zi got up and decided to pay a visit to Mayor Li Jianfeng of Xingcheng City.
The purpose of Mu Zi's visit to Xingcheng was to represent Elder Mu in congratulating Mayor Li, whose daughter was getting engaged. Elder Mu, as Mayor Li's former superior, naturally had to send someone to show his regard.
Sending his own granddaughter, Mu Zi, was Elder Mu's way of showing concern and affection for his old subordinates.
According to the schedule, the engagement banquet for Mayor Li's daughter was tomorrow, so Mu Zi was to visit Mayor Li a day in advance.
After breakfast, Mu Zi called Mayor Li.
When Mayor Li heard that Elder Mu's granddaughter was coming to visit him personally, he was overjoyed.
After all, Elder Mu had been his commander and was now the deputy leader of the third, fifth, sixth, and seventh groups. A deputy leader of the Imperial Guard... Such a figure was someone many sought after but could not easily win over.
The prospect of Elder Mu's granddaughter visiting made Mayor Li extremely happy.
To show his seriousness, Mayor Li directly arranged for Mu Zi to come to Tianwan Clubhouse.
This Tianwan Clubhouse was the place where Mayor Li received foreign guests or central dignitaries in Xingcheng. Receiving Mu Zi here also showed Mayor Li's respect for both Mu Zi and Elder Mu.
After calling Mayor Li, Mu Zi and Ding Fan headed toward the Tianwan Clubhouse together.
Ding Fan hadn't wanted to join the excitement at Tianwan Clubhouse. He wasn't too interested in political matters. However, after being begged earnestly by the little fairy, he had no choice but to accompany her on this trip.
Tianwan Clubhouse was located in West City District of Xingcheng, the busiest area of the city.
Ding Fan and Mu Zi took a car to Tianwan Clubhouse.
When Ding Fan and Mu Zi arrived at the clubhouse entrance, everything was in full readiness, with receptionists at the door and a red carpet laid out leading to it.
Clearly, all these arrangements were made to welcome Mu Zi.
"You dare to come here..."
Just as Ding Fan was lost in thought, a very domineering voice sounded from nearby.
Ding Fan was actually taken aback; the voice was clearly directing itself at him.
Looking in the direction of the voice, the speaker was none other than Li Qishan.
This Li Qishan was Ruo Xin's fiancée, the daughter of Mayor Li.
Yesterday, just as Ding Fan and Mu Zi had arrived in Xingcheng City, they had immediately been targeted by Ruo Xin. He wanted revenge for the two kicks he had received from Ding Fan back in Longxi, so he had Li Qishan use her identity as the mayor's daughter to order police and SWAT Team officers to deal with Ding Fan.
However, the situation had drastically changed. The police and SWAT Team did go, but it was not Ding Fan who got taken care of. Instead, Ruo Xin himself was directly taken away by the officers...
Now, Ruo Xin was still in detention, and tomorrow was supposed to be the day Li Qishan and Ruo Xin's engagement was announced. Li Qishan had initially wanted to plead with her father personally but had not expected to run into Ding Fan at the entrance of the Tianwan Clubhouse.
"You got Ruo Xin thrown into jail, and now you have the nerve to show up here acting tough. Do you really think I can't handle you?" Li Qishan, hands on hips and head held high, stared at Ding Fan to the side.
Li Qishan held her head high not out of pride, but mainly because she was quite short. To look at Ding Fan, she had to tilt her head back.
Ding Fan was here today to accompany Mu Zi to see Mayor Li, and he wasn't looking to stir up trouble.
Yet Li Qishan clearly had no intention of making peace, as she said to the people beside her, "Some of you, come here and get rid of this man for me... and if they're too stubborn to leave peacefully, breaking their legs is on me!"
The staff at the Tianwan Clubhouse, especially the security guards at the door, were no strangers to Li Qishan.
Upon hearing Li Qishan's words, the security guards were eager to prove themselves. After all, she was the mayor's daughter. If they did well for her here, she surely wouldn't ignore them in the future if they ever needed something in Xingcheng.
"You... get out of here now!" two security guards said as they aggressively approached Ding Fan.
Ding Fan's brow furrowed slightly.
He hadn't intended to cause trouble while escorting Mu Zi here today, but that certainly did not mean that Ding Fan was afraid of trouble. He wasn't going to stand there and grin while being insulted.
"I said get moving... Can't you hear?" one of the guards said, jabbing a finger directly at Ding Fan's nose.
However, before that security guard could finish speaking, Ding Fan had already made his move.
Ding Fan's right foot shot out in a kick.
The security guard pointing at Ding Fan didn't even understand what was happening before he was kicked over by Ding Fan.
"Fuck! You dare to start a fight here!" said the other security guard, who reached down to unhook a rubber baton from his belt.
Ding Fan had no kind feelings towards these two guards who were trying to impress Li Qishan by aggressively asking him to leave without any justification. He thought it was only appropriate to teach such menial people a lesson.
Just as the security guard had taken the rubber baton into his hands, Ding Fan stepped forward, closing the distance between them.
The guard was taken aback, clearly not expecting Ding Fan to close in so quickly.
Before the guard could recover, Ding Fan kicked out again, toppling the man to the ground.
In just two kicks, Ding Fan had floored two security guards.
His dominant display caused many bystanders to look on in awe.
"Do you know where you are? You're causing trouble here; you must be looking for a bad end..." Li Qishan was taken aback, clearly she had not expected Ding Fan to be so decisive and forceful.
At that moment, her voice was somewhat quivering, for how could she dare to be boisterous against someone who had just knocked down two security guards?
"Mu Zi, it seems that I'm not welcome here. I'll wait for you outside..." Ding Fan paid no attention to Li Qishan beside him and said to Mu Zi.
"Brother Fan, if you don't go in with me, I won't go in either," Mu Zi said from the side.
It was then that a commotion of footsteps approached from one side.
Li Qishan turned toward the sound to see a pair of police officers running toward them. Once she recognized that they were police officers, her confidence grew.
"This man is causing trouble here; arrest him immediately..."
Having heard Li Qishan's words, the officers immediately surrounded Ding Fan and his group. In Xingcheng, which wasn't very large, there were few who didn't know that Li Qishan was the daughter of the mayor.
"What's going on here, Qi San? The mayor has already called; the important guest he is to receive today will be arriving soon, so don't make a scene," a middle-aged police officer said as he approached Li Qishan.
"I'm not making a scene. It was this man... he assaulted the security guards, and he would have hit me too if you hadn't come..." Li Qishan replied. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
The middle-aged officer listened to Li Qishan's words, glanced at Ding Fan nearby, and then said to his subordinates.
"Take him to the back for now; we have a VIP coming soon... we'll sort this out later."
"Yes!" With the middle-aged officer's command, his subordinates began to close in on Ding Fan...
