Chapter 850: Chapter 850

Boom! The black van heavily crashed into a tree trunk behind Ding Fan; the force was so great that the tree was snapped in half, and the van ended up grounded.

Ding Fan's eyes sharpened—this was clearly an intentional attempt on his life.

But thinking about it, if they resorted to such measures to take his life, it seemed that the adversary wasn't particularly skilled.

The van's doors opened, and two people jumped out, then took to their heels and ran.

Just as Ding Fan thought about giving chase, Ye Ningbing came running over.

Ye Ningbing was usually very cold, and today she didn't just initiate conversation with him, but she had also been following him the whole way; there definitely had to be something going on.

Ding Fan stood still and watched as Ye Ningbing approached.

"Ding Fan, I… Can I invite you to dinner? I… I have some things I want to talk to you about." Ye Ningbing said as she came over.

He had almost been hit by a car; now Ye Ningbing wanted to invite him to dinner—this could not be so simple.

However, Ding Fan did not hesitate and nodded lightly. "Sure."

Ye Ningbing let out a hidden sigh of relief when she saw Ding Fan's reaction.

"My car is over there; let's take it," she said.

Ding Fan had no objections, and he followed Ye Ningbing for a short walk until they arrived at a white sedan.

Ding Fan followed Ye Ningbing into the car without hesitation.

Ye Ningbing started the car, and soon her vehicle merged into the traffic on the road like a drop of water.

In the meantime, Ding Fan used his Divine Sense to scan the scene where the van had tried to hit him. There was a black sedan parked not far away, with the occupants reporting the situation at the scene to someone.

"Where shall we go for dinner…" Ding Fan asked nonchalantly.

Ye Ningbing, who was driving, seemed not to have heard him at all, absorbed in her own thoughts as she drove.

Seeing Ye Ningbing , Ding Fan asked again. "Where are we going for dinner?"

"Ah? Oh…" Ye Ningbing collected herself and then replied. "Anywhere… anywhere is fine."

"Since you are inviting me to dinner, you should pick the place," Ding Fan said.

Ye Ningbing was definitely acting out of character today. She was known as the Eastern Mermaid, Huaxia's number one beauty—a person very aloof, even a single word from her was rare.

Ye Ningbing's unusual behavior was certainly indicative of something.

And at this moment, Ye Ningbing's phone suddenly rang.

Ye Ningbing glanced at the caller ID with furrowed brows. However, she chose not to answer. The caller seemed to be very patient; after a missed call, they persisted in calling.

"I think it might be better for you to answer it," Ding Fan said calmly.

Ye Ningbing held the steering wheel tightly, biting her lip, and after a long silence, she finally spoke up.

"Ding Fan… what do you think of me?"

"You are beautiful," Ding Fan answered sincerely.

The title of Huaxia's number one beauty wasn't just for show.

Ye Ningbing took a deep breath, then facing Ding Fan, said, "I know you are different now, you've become a renowned figure known all over the world… So, today, I came to ask something of you."

Ding Fan didn't respond; he just quietly looked at Ye Ningbing.

"I hope you can spare my brother... spare the Ye Family," pleaded Ye Ningbing, as if mustering all her courage.

Ding Fan looked at Ye Ningbing. He did not respond to her words. "The one who used the van to try to take my life was your brother Ye Chenliang, wasn't it?"

Knowing she couldn't deceive Ding Fan, Ye Ningbing nodded frankly. "As long as you are willing to spare my brother and the Ye Family, I'm willing to repay you with everything I have… including myself."

At this point, Ding Fan finally understood why Ye Ningbing had been following him.

It seemed she knew Ye Chenliang intended to make a move against him, and she must know that Ye Chenliang couldn't harm him, so she followed all the way, trying to protect her brother and the Ye Family with her own efforts. Content orıginally comes from 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩

"I've already spared the Ye Family once for your sake; that was an exception I made. I will not be merciful to my enemies," Ding Fan said coolly.

Last time he left Yanjing, it was because of Ye Ningbing that Ding Fan spared Ye Chenliang once. He wouldn't indulge and tolerate someone intent on killing him repeatedly.

"I've said it before, if anyone from the Ye Family dares to challenge my limits again, I won't show restraint," Ding Fan said dispassionately.

Ye Ningbing's delicate body shivered slightly, but at that moment, she didn't know what else to say.

Ye Ningbing had grown up in one of the Four Great Families, and with her beauty and powerful family background, few people ever went against her wishes.

But in front of Ding Fan, Ye Ningbing always felt that he was immense, that she had no say at all...

"It seems we can skip dinner; I'm getting out here," Ding Fan said to Ye Ningbing calmly.

Just as Ye Ningbing was about to say something, the rear window of her car was shattered. Glass covered the back seat.

"Ah…" The incident happened so suddenly that Ye Ningbing panicked for a moment.

"0.76mm rifle bullets," Ding Fan was holding a bullet between two fingers, saying indifferently, "It seems your brother really went all out to take my life."

By now, Ye Ningbing had also realized that the rear car window had been shattered by bullets.

Just then, a burst of gunfire sounded again from behind Ye Ningbing and Ding Fan.

Daring to open fire in the streets of the capital of Huaxia Country, it seemed that the other party was dead set on taking his life.

"I'll drive. Just keep your foot on the gas," Ding Fan told Ye Ningbing, who was beside him.

It was Ye Ningbing's first time experiencing such an event, and she was somewhat nervous and scared at that moment. However, she obediently handed the steering wheel over to Ding Fan, simply keeping her foot on the gas pedal.

Ding Fan, sitting in the passenger seat, controlled the steering wheel with his left hand. The car, which had been swaying a bit, was quickly brought under control by Ding Fan.

Ratatat... The sound of gunfire kept erupting from behind the car.

As if he hadn't heard, Ding Fan was solely focused on driving.

Ye Ningbing was sitting in the driver's seat, glancing at Ding Fan's resolute and determined expression. It was a fearless look. Sitting next to Ding Fan made her feel as if there was nothing to fear and that everything would pass safely.

Somehow, sitting beside Ding Fan, she felt an immense sense of security.

It was a feeling that Ye Ningbing hadn't experienced in a long time.

"Hold tight," Ding Fan said lightly, when Ye Ningbing was lost in her thoughts.

Ye Ningbing quickly nodded. "Okay."

At that moment, Ding Fan suddenly executed a sharp turn.

Since the gas pedal was fully depressed, when he jerked the steering wheel, the tires screeched unpleasantly against the road.

The violent shaking of the car turned Ye Ningbing's face pale.

But the car was quickly straightened out by Ding Fan, resuming its linear course.

Ye Ningbing looked back incredulously at the sharp turn they had just taken.

At that moment, Ye Ningbing almost couldn't believe that under such circumstances, with the pedal floored and the steering wheel yanked hard, a common outcome—flipping the car—hadn't occurred.

She really didn't understand whether it was the car's performance or some stroke of incredible luck that had prevented the car from flipping over under such conditions.

In reality, it wasn't a matter of luck at all. During that sharp turn, Ding Fan had used the Thousand Catty Drop.

The reason a car flips during a sharp turn lies in the instability of the center of gravity, and Ding Fan had used the Thousand Catty Drop to stabilize his side, preventing the car from flipping over.

After that turn, the pursuers were left far behind by the car Ding Fan had taken control of.

At that moment, Ding Fan and Ye Ningbing were outside the boundary wall of a university.

The area was not crowded, and on the other side of the wall was a small grove of trees. It appeared to be class time, so there were not many people on the other side of the grove.

"Ease off the gas," Ding Fan urgently commanded Ye Ningbing.

Ye Ningbing did not dare to defy Ding Fan's order, immediately letting off the gas pedal. After she did so, Ding Fan brought the car to a stop.

"Wait over there and I'll come find you after I've handled things," said Ding Fan before stepping out of the car.

Ye Ningbing paused for a moment before getting out of the car and obediently waiting to the side as Ding Fan had instructed.

And not long after Ye Ningbing got out of the car, a dark green Hummer came barreling through.

Ding Fan stood in the middle of the road. As soon as the Hummer saw Ding Fan, it didn't waste words and started firing its mounted machine gun directly.

A series of bullets shot straight towards Ding Fan.

Ye Ningbing watched this scene, her mouth agape with tension.

Ye Ningbing knew that Ding Fan was skilled, but no matter how capable you are, you can't be a match for bullets. With those bullets coming at him, Ding Fan was certain to lose his life.

However, to Ye Ningbing's astonishment, after the bullets were fired, Ding Fan made some evasive moves right then and there.

Ye Ningbing watched in confusion. Could it be possible for someone to dodge bullets?

After evading bullets for a while, Ding Fan suddenly started to retaliate, firing a series of iron nails.

The dark green Hummer was quickly silenced by Ding Fan, and in the blink of an eye, the Hummer was forced to a stop, and the deafening machine gun fell silent as well.

All of this seemed to take a long time, but in reality, it happened in the blink of an eye.

Ye Ningbing even felt that everything had happened too suddenly, and ended just as abruptly...

Just then, the doors of the Hummer opened, and two people got out of the car, and once they disembarked, they immediately tried to flee.

With a flick of his hand, Ding Fan sent two iron nails flying towards them. After a painful cry, both men were sprawled out on the ground.

Ding Fan then strode over to them.

"Where is Ye Chenliang now?" Ding Fan didn't even have to guess; it was clear these men had been sent by Ye Chenliang.

"I... I'll tell you, please just don't kill me," one of the two who had escaped from the car frantically began to speak.

These two harbored a profound terror of Ding Fan; how could a man who could take on a Hummer armed with a machine gun using just iron nails not be someone they dare provoke?
