At night, the Qinglong Villa located on Qinglong Mountain, the "Manlong Guiyu" west view of West Lake in Hangzhou, is more peaceful than during the day. The silver moonlight pours on Qinglong Mountain, and only the villa where Chen Fan lives on the entire mountain is lit.
Holding Bao'er in his arms, Chen Fan stood on the balcony of the villa and had an unobstructed view of the night view of the West Lake and the Qiantang River.
"Brother, this place is so beautiful." Bao'er curled up in Chen Fan's arms, hugged Chen Fan's neck, looked at the night view outside the window, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Do you like this place, Bao'er?" Chen Fan's heart moved and he asked with a smile.
Bao'er nodded obediently: "I like it."
"How about big brother giving this villa to Bao'er?" Chen Fan asked, gently stroking Bao'er's head.
Although this villa belongs to the Xiao family, if Chen Fan wants it, he can easily buy it from Xiao Yuanshan, and even... Xiao Yuanshan will give it to him with both hands.
After all, the benefits Chen Fan created for the Xiao family were more than ten times the price of this villa.
Bao'er didn't answer immediately, but looked at Chen Fan and asked, "Does the eldest brother live with Bao'er?"
Chen Fan was stunned.
"If the eldest brother and Bao'er live together, Bao'er will want it." Bao'er put his right index finger to his mouth and said seriously: "If the eldest brother doesn't live with him, Bao'er won't want it."
Chen Fan smiled bitterly and pinched Bao'er's cheek, but did not make any promise to Bao'er.
Because he couldn't afford this promise.
With his current situation, it is impossible for him to stay in Hangzhou forever - for him, the move in Hangzhou has basically been finalized. Next, he will drop a few chess pieces at lightning speed and start a war against the Qing Gang.
The first round of indiscriminate bombing.
Moreover, to put it bluntly, even if he handles the matter at hand, he can't live here with Bao'er...
Crunch!
Just when Bao'er, in order to "retaliate" against Chen Fan, rubbed Chen Fan's face into a pig's head and started giggling, the balcony door was pushed open, and Dumb in a black suit walked towards Chen Fan.
Hearing the sound, Chen Fan turned around and asked, "Is Bao'er's family here?"
"Yes, Mr. Chen, they were stopped at the bottom of the mountain. Brothers, please ask if you can let them go up the mountain." Dui said respectfully.
Chen Fan sighed softly: "They are Bao'er's relatives, let them go up the mountain."
"Yes, Mr. Chen."
Dui respectfully accepted the order, then exited the balcony and gave orders to the secret hall members at the bottom of the mountain through the radio.
Ten minutes later, Nalan Yongke took Nalan Xiangxiang and Jia Pingan to the door of the villa where Chen Fan lived.
Looking at the villa that combines Chinese and Western styles, Nalan Xiangxiang had mixed feelings.
She is no stranger to the real estate industry. When she first came to Hangzhou, what she wanted to buy most was the villa in Qinglong Villa. Unfortunately, the villas here were priced but not marketable. She couldn't buy it even if she paid two or three times the price, so in the end she had to
I gave up and bought a villa in Jiuxi Rose Garden from a Taiwanese businessman.
"Mr. Nalan, Mr. Chen is waiting for you in the room." Dui, who had been waiting at the door, saw Nalan Yongke and his entourage get out of the car, and immediately went up to greet them.
Nalan Yongke smiled and nodded, leading Nalan Xiangxiang and Jia Pingan into the villa.
"Grandpa, aunt, uncle Ping'an!"
In the hall, Bao'er, who was originally nestled next to Chen Fan, saw Nalan Yongke and the others entering the hall. He quickly stood up and waved cheerfully.
"Baoer."
Nalan Yongke smiled kindly, and then turned his gaze to Chen Fan with a complicated expression.
Obviously, he did not expect that Nalan Baoer and Chen Fan would be so close.
He didn't expect it, but Nalan Xiangxiang did. She was not surprised by this, nor did she become furious because she saw Chen Fan. On the contrary, her expression was very calm.
"Hello, Mr. Nalan." Chen Fan stood up on his own initiative, walked forward, and extended his right hand.
Nalan Yongke smiled and said: "I have always heard that Chen Fan of the Chen family has an extraordinary bearing. When I saw him today, he certainly lived up to his reputation. It's a pleasure to meet him."
Facing Nalan Yongke's compliment, Chen Fan smiled lightly and did not give an explanation.
"Hello, Mr. Chen." Seeing that Chen Fan and Nalan Yongke finished shaking hands, Nalan Xiangxiang took two steps forward, carrying a burst of fragrance, and stretched out her weak and boneless right hand.
Nalan Xiangxiang took the initiative to show her kindness, which surprised Chen Fan a little, but the smile on his face did not diminish: "Hello, Miss Xiangxiang."
As he spoke, he held Nalan Xiangxiang's small white hands that could play the piano and the guzheng, smelled the pleasant body fragrance coming from the shop, and looked at the pair of beautiful contact lenses that were as bright as stars at close range.
.
After a brief squeeze, Chen Fan took the initiative to let go and then made a gesture of invitation.
After sitting down, Bao'er sat on Nalan Yongke's body as usual, stretched out his fleshy little hand, and grabbed Nalan Yongke's beard, smiling constantly.
Nalan Xiangxiang sat there quietly, hesitating to speak, while Jia Ping'an looked a little strange. Apparently, the lesson Daifu gave him at noon made him unable to forget it, and he had some feelings for Chen Fan.
Awe.
"Mr. Chen, I have something to say to you alone. I wonder if we can go to the study room to talk?" After a short silence, Nalan Xiangxiang broke the strange atmosphere.
When Nalan Xiangxiang's words rang in his ears, Chen Fan felt stunned.
In his opinion, Nalan Yongke took the initiative to come to him today. On the one hand, he wanted to pick up Bao'er, and on the other hand, he probably wanted to talk to him about something. Now, Nalan Xiangxiang wanted to talk to him, which somewhat surprised him.
.
Unexpectedly, he did not refuse, but nodded and stood up first.
A minute later, in the study room, Chen Fan was sitting on a bamboo chair, and Nalan Xiangxiang was sitting on a wooden chair not far away, with elegant posture and calm expression.
"Mr. Chen, because you killed my sister, I have always hated you." After calmly sitting down, Nalan Xiangxiang was the first to speak, her tone was neither warm nor impatient.
The muscles in the corners of Chen Fan's eyes twitched slightly, but he said nothing.
"You must also know that in order to retaliate against you, I self-righteously used myself as capital to find a backer who could defeat you." Nalan Xiangxiang laughed at herself: "Now that I think about it, it's really ridiculous."
"After learning the inside story today, I feel that Miss Dev is right. You don't owe our Nalan family anything." After saying that, Nalan Xiangxiang took a deep breath and said, "Because... if it weren't for your appearance,
My sister will still die, even Bao'er will die. Although you killed my sister, it was manslaughter. I have no reason to blame you or hate you!"
"Please forgive me for my previous ignorance!"
At the end of the sentence, Nalan Xiangxiang stood up, lowered her proud head to Chen Fan, and bowed deeply.
Looking at Nalan Xiangxiang who bowed ninety degrees to him, Chen Fan said calmly: "Is it right or wrong? I have a strong balance in my heart. If you are afraid that I will target the Nalan family and come to apologize to me, you can do it."
No, because... you are all Bao'er's relatives, and I won't do anything to the Nalan family."
Nalan Xiangxiang's heart was shocked and her delicate body trembled, but she didn't say anything.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for being the prime minister." Nalan Xiangxiang still lowered her head and spoke respectfully.
Chen Fan lit a cigarette and sighed: "Nalan Xiangxiang, there is no need for you to act so humble in front of me. I have heard about your deeds, and neither Chen Fei nor Emperor Yan Qing can fall into your eyes.
, presumably, I am not worthy of what you do."
After hearing what Chen Fan said, Nalan Xiangxiang's expression changed continuously, and then she tried her best to adjust herself, raised her head, glanced at Chen Fan, and said nothing more.
"Bao'er needs care very much." Chen Fan thought for a moment and said, "I plan to see Bao'er every once in a while and take her out to play."
Nalan Xiangxiang's eyes flashed with a trace of hatred and resistance that could not be erased.
The hidden light flashed away, and then she smiled slightly: "Bao'er likes you very much. If you want to see Bao'er, I won't object."
"Thanks."
Chen Fan also smiled slightly, his heart as clear as a mirror.
Then... perhaps Nalan Xiangxiang saw that Chen Fan was not interested in talking, so she took the initiative to exit the study and closed the door.
Chen Fan smoked a cigarette alone in the study, then put out the cigarette butt, walked out of the study, and went to the hall downstairs.
In the hall, Nalan Yongke bent over and put on Bao'er's shoes with a happy smile on his face, while Nalan Xiangxiang and Jia Pingan stood aside, waiting quietly.
Soon, Nalan Yongke completed the "feat", and Baoer came to Chen Fan jumping up and down: "Big brother."
Chen Fan picked up Bao'er with a smile and asked, "Bao'er, are you leaving?"
"Yes." Bao'er nodded with some reluctance, and then added: "Bao'er originally wanted to go to Hong Kong Disneyland with his eldest brother tomorrow. But grandpa said that his eldest brother is very busy now and may not be able to spare time.
Bao'er thought about it and decided to wait until Children's Day before going with her big brother."
After hearing Bao'er's words, Nalan Yongke had a strange expression on his face.
Because... he didn't know anything about Chen Fan's promise to Bao'er, so naturally he didn't say anything like Chen Fan was busy.
Nalan Yongke knew this, but Chen Fan didn't. Hearing what Bao'er said, he smiled and nodded: "Okay, Children's Day, big brother, no matter how busy he is, he will take Bao'er to Hong Kong Disneyland."
paradise."
"Come on, pull the hook." Bao'er stretched out his finger, pulled Chen Fan's little finger, shook it, and hummed: "Hang yourself with the hook. You are not allowed to change for a hundred years. Whoever changes is a puppy..."
Chen Fan couldn't laugh or cry.
After the retraction was completed, Bao'er let Chen Fan put him down with satisfaction, and then rode Nalan Yongke's neck like a white horse, and left majestically.
"Goodbye big brother!"
Half a minute later, outside the villa, in the extended Lincoln in the middle, Bao'er, sitting in the back row, stretched out his head and waved to Chen Fan.
"Bao'er, goodbye."
Chen Fan smiled and waved, and then made eye contact with Nalan Yongke.
Then, Nalan Yongke got into the car with a smile.
The car started, and Nalan Yongke and his party slowly left.
In the car, Nalan Xiangxiang looked at Chen Fan through the reflector, her eyes revealing her persistence and stubbornness.
"Nalan Xiangxiang, everyone's eyes can't lie. The key is whether they can detect it." Seeing several cars disappearing on the forest road, Chen Fan raised his head and looked up at the curved cold moon, and said in a complicated tone: "You...
Why bother?"
