"Xu Fan, my brother, let's go back and continue drinking."
After the briefing, Zhang Shicun walked over to Xu Fan, intending to drag him back to continue drinking.
"No, it's getting late, I have to leave first."
If it weren't for the trouble caused by the Myanmar people, Xu Fan would have agreed. It had been delayed for so long, he should go back and reunite with Xiao Die and the others.
"Alright then, let's drink next time."
Xu Fan would stay in Diannan for a while, so Zhang Shicun wasn't in a hurry. He nodded and agreed.
"I'll drive you back."
Thinking it over, Zhang Shicun offered to personally drive Xu Fan back. Xu Fan couldn't help but laugh.
"A Major General acting as my driver, aren't you afraid of gossip?"
"Alright, no need to be so polite, arrange a driver for me and that's fine."
Politely declining Zhang Shicun's request, Xu Fan gave a couple of instructions and had Zhang Shicun arrange a driver to send him out of the military district.
On the way, after confirming the location of Xiao Die and the others, Xu Fan instructed the driver to take him directly to the destination.
Having just arrived, Xia Xiao Die didn't rush to find a permanent residence but temporarily stayed in a hotel.
Entering the hotel, Xu Fan arrived at Xia Xiao Die's room and knocked on the door, only to see Gongsun Qin opening it.
Walking into the room, he could see Xia Xiao Die at the computer, searching for information.
Seeing Xu Fan come in, she immediately stopped what she was doing.
"Xu Fan, sister Feng Huang just contacted me."
"Oh? What did she say?"
Xu Fan sat down and asked.
This trip to Diannan was partly to solve the trouble she had encountered.
He planned to meet her in the evening to ask about the problem she faced.
Now Feng Huang had proactively contacted Xia Xiao Die, saving him a lot of trouble.
"She asked you to meet her at the Blackberry Bar at nine. Do you want me to go with you?"
After explaining the situation, Xia Xiao Die asked.
She was also worried about Feng Huang and thought she could help by going along.
"No need, focus on your business. Besides, this kind of task isn't suited for you."
The trouble Feng Huang encountered wasn't something Xia Xiao Die could resolve.
Xu Fan didn't want her involved, and he was enough on his own.
Moreover, she had just arrived in Diannan and had many business matters to handle.
"Then... what about me?"
At this moment, Gongsun Qin asked.
She had come to learn from Xu Fan, hoping she could be useful.
"You can't go."
Eagerly asking, but Xu Fan directly refused her.
Gongsun Qin felt somewhat deflated; why couldn't she go?
"Why?"
Unconvinced, she asked.
"If you leave, who will protect my Xiao Die?"
"... "
Without thinking, Xu Fan gave his reason. The sudden show of affection left Gongsun Qin stifling uneasily.
Not just Gongsun Qin, even Xia Xiao Die became embarrassed.
She winked playfully at Xu Fan, almost ready to hit him.
"Don't think I'm exploiting you. You will learn just as much from Xiao Die as you would from me, got it?"
In terms of cultivation level, Xia Xiao Die couldn't match Gongsun Qin, but she excelled in other areas.
To this day, XD Jewelry was carried by this woman's efforts alone.
Having her teach Gongsun Qin was more than enough.
"Xiao Die, this woman can be single-minded. Take care of her, improve her intelligence. It's difficult, but don't give up."
"You!"
"Can you shut up?"
Xu Fan spoke earnestly as if entrusting a child, making Gongsun Qin blush.
If Xia Xiao Die weren't there, she would have jumped at Xu Fan in rage.
This guy, couldn't he give her a little face!
"Alright, no more chit-chat. It's getting late; I'll rest now."
The room Xia Xiao Die arranged for him was next door, and with some time before nine, Xu Fan greeted them and left.
As night fell, he left the hotel, heading to the Blackberry Bar where he was to meet Feng Huang.
Diannan, near the border, might not match Shanghai's glamour, but the nightlife was just as vibrant.
The Blackberry Bar was one of the iconic spots in Diannan's nightlife.
How to quickly understand the local situation upon arrival?
Taxi drivers are definitely a good choice.
On the way, the taxi driver started chatting with Xu Fan.
According to him, the Blackberry Bar was opened by a local big boss, though he was just the visible owner.
The bar's ownership was highly complex, with even neighboring countries holding shares.
Xu Fan didn't take the mysterious claims to heart; he was simply going to meet Feng Huang.
The background of shareholders and their supporters wasn't his concern.
On the way, Xu Fan asked the taxi driver about Diannan and soon arrived at the Blackberry Bar.
"Thank you, sir."
Handing over money to the driver, Xu Fan said goodbye and got out of the taxi.
Looking at the dazzling Blackberry Bar, Xu Fan stretched and walked in.
Immediately, deafening electronic music hit him like a wave. Xu Fan bypassed the dance floor, arrived at the bar, ordered a drink, and quietly waited.
About a quarter of an hour remained before his nine o'clock meeting with Feng Huang.
With a drink finished, she should arrive soon.
Watching the dance floor, where youths danced wildly, Xu Fan drank and waited. Before long, someone sat beside him.
"Waiter, a Bloody Mary, bill it to this handsome guy."
A familiar voice and face, Feng Huang sat beside him, raised her glass to Xu Fan. Smiling, Xu Fan shook his head and clinked glasses with her.
"Seeing you like this, you don't seem as troubled as I thought."
He believed her situation in Diannan was dire, expecting some disarray, but she seemed far from it.
"Oppa, don't you know, women must always present their best side?"
Teasingly, Feng Huang licked the liquor from her lips, smiling: "Otherwise, how could I captivate a handsome guy like you, oppa?"
