Regarding the Hidden World Families such as the Huang Family, Xu Fan didn't have much information.

But no one needs to question how deep the heritage of a hidden family can be.

Currently, Xiaodie is in Shanghai, not by his side. Even with Gongsun Qin and others protecting her, it's hard to counter the power of a hidden family.

Now that Xia Bofu, that bastard, has given the Huang Family such a terrible idea, Xu Fan has to worry about Xiaodie's current situation!

If Xiaodie falls into the hands of the Huang Family, he will be completely forced into a passive situation!

He walked out from the living room, hurriedly took out his phone, and called Xia Xiaodie!

He must quickly confirm Xia Xiaodie's situation!

Buzz... Buzz...

The call went through, and soon Xia Xiaodie's voice came through the phone.

"Hello, big dummy, why did you suddenly think of calling me?"

This familiar voice made the huge stone hanging in Xu Fan's heart instantly fall down.

From Xiaodie's voice, he could tell she wasn't in danger right now, and Xu Fan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I missed you, so I called..."

He and Xiaodie have gone through countless trials and tribulations, and Xu Fan could hardly imagine how he would live in the future without her.

He expressed his longing for Xia Xiaodie without hesitation.

"Haha, what a big dummy..."

Perhaps thinking of the moments they've shared, only Xia Xiaodie's laughter could be heard on the phone.

The laughter carried a hint of choking emotion, and Xu Fan, listening to it, couldn't help but tense up once again.

"Xiao... Xiaodie, what's wrong?"

Intuition told Xu Fan that something wasn't right with Xiaodie now.

"Big dummy, do you remember the bet we had?"

Yet Xia Xiaodie didn't respond directly to Xu Fan's question and instead asked him.

The agreement between them, Xu Fan certainly remembered. She had promised him that within one year, she would make XD Jewelry the largest.

If she succeeded, he would agree to do something for her.

After the trip to Diannan, XD Jewelry gained support from several jade mines, and with Xia Xiaodie's relentlessly hardworking attitude, XD Jewelry was no longer just a fledgling company.

But to say it had already become the largest in Shanghai, it still wasn't enough.

One must know that the competition in the jewelry industry is not just big, claiming to be the largest now is insufficient; more time must be invested to establish that claim.

What did she mean by bringing this up all of a sudden?

"Big dummy, in this bet, I ultimately lost."

Xia Xiaodie was full of confidence to make XD Jewelry the biggest in Shanghai within a year, but now, she no longer had the time to continue this bet.

"Even though I lost, you still have to promise me one thing. Haha, I often act spoiled. I'm sure this time, you will indulge me too, right?"

Xia Xiaodie was well aware of what this marriage meant for the family.

Born into the Xia Family, for the reproduction and prosperity of the family, she had no reason to refuse.

Though knowing her romance with Xu Fan would not have a result, when Xu Fan came to Shanghai, she couldn't resist reuniting with him.

The time spent with this big dummy were her happiest moments, and she really didn't want to part from him.

But reality is so cruel; she and Xu Fan were destined to part one day.

For this reason, she made this bet with Xu Fan.

She hoped that when that day came, she could make this big dummy listen to her for once and not get into big trouble with the Huang Family for her sake.

"Big dummy, you know, these days, although I'm tired, but truly, I've been very happy."

Xia Xiaodie had been sleepless in her efforts to develop XD Jewelry, but she never regretted it.

She wanted to do something for Xu Fan. Unlike Xu Fan, who had a cultivation level, she was just an ordinary girl.

The only thing she could do was this.

Make XD Jewelry the largest in Shanghai, becoming a money tree for Xu Fan.

Originally intending to accomplish this with the little time left before the engagement arrived, Serendipity worked against her, and she couldn't hold on to the last moment.

The regret may never be remedied.

Sniffing her nose, Xia Xiaodie then said, "Big dummy, you never think for yourself, always putting others first. Do you know? By doing this, you are really silly…"

"This time, you must listen to me and stop caring about this little burden of mine."

Knowing full well the time left for her to speak was limited, Xia Xiaodie held back her reluctance and interrupted her own ramblings.

"And one more thing, please tell my sister that I have never blamed her."

Falling in love with the same man as her sister, Xia Xiaodie, looking back now, felt it was all the trick of fate.

From the beginning, her sister never intended to hurt her.

If there is anyone to blame, it's just that this big dummy was too good, making both sisters carelessly fall for him.

"Haha, I definitely can't compare to my sister, big dummy. If I were you, I would choose my sister too."

After forcibly maintaining a cheerful demeanor while saying this to Xu Fan, Xia Xiaodie's laughter gradually became bitter.

She knew very well that when her sister found out about this, she would probably cry her heart out.

"Big dummy, promise me, take good care of my sister for me."

"If... if there's a next life, I will definitely be your bride. No one, no matter who, will be allowed to take you from me."

At this, tears were already on the verge of spilling over; Xia Xiaodie took a deep breath and then abruptly hung up the call.

Perhaps this was the last time she would talk to Xu Fan. She didn't want to leave a bad impression in Xu Fan's heart.

Putting away her phone, wiping away the tears at the corner of her eyes, Xia Xiaodie took a deep breath and looked ahead.

"Alright, release them all, and I'll go with you."

Ahead, she could see that Gongsun Qin and the Qing Gang experts were being held by a group of people.

They were all Xu Fan's friends. If not for her, they wouldn't have been held by the Huang Family people.

Before she left, Xia Xiaodie just hoped to do something for Xu Fan one last time.

At least not implicate them.

The experts sent by the Huang Family had only one target, Xia Xiaodie. Seeing Xia Xiaodie compromise, they sneered and approached her.

"Miss Xia is indeed sensible. Since you wish to protect them, just come with us then."

They were about to reach out to seize Xia Xiaodie as they approached her.

Xia Xiaodie glanced at them coldly and said, "Don't touch me! I will go with you!"

"But I hope you will also show me some respect, as I believe you wouldn't want a dead person to marry into your Huang Family."

With this warning, the group calmed down.

Xia Xiaodie then directly looked over at Gongsun Qin.

Seeing her still trying to fight for her, she couldn't help but let a bitter smile appear at the corners of her lips.

"Thank you, but don't take action again..."
