Xu Fan was discussing the training of the War Wolf special forces team with Lu Chenbing and didn’t notice his phone. It wasn’t until the ringtone sounded for the second time that Xu Fan picked up the phone and swiped to answer.

“Xu Fan, what the hell are you up to now? Why don’t you ever answer your phone?” came the accusatory voice of Xu Yixue from the other end of the call.

“Uh, I was drinking with a friend and didn’t hear it,” Xu Fan explained over the phone.

“Out drinking again? I thought you might change a bit, but it turns out you’re still the same, bringing Tongtong here was a mistake,” Xu Yixue, having heard that Xu Fan was out drinking again, spoke colder, a bit infuriated.

“I’ve always been like this, what business is it of yours?” Xu Fan, hearing Xu Yixue’s tone on the phone, also felt displeased.

In the past, Xu Fan’s drinking meant getting wasted in a rented room, but now, he was clinking glasses and chatting merrily with two big shots from Zhonghai.

It was a completely different concept, but Xu Yixue didn’t bother to ask about the situation and, upon hearing that he was drinking, immediately judged him as the same wasted youth from before.

However, Xu Fan couldn’t be bothered to explain; as the Five Directions Great Emperor, he lived his life without needing to justify himself to anyone.

“You… you… you’re hopeless…!” Xu Yixue bitterly spat out before saying in a brusque tone to Xu Fan, “Give the phone to my daughter.”

Without making a fuss, Xu Fan handed the phone to Tongtong, who was busily gnawing on a chicken wing.

“Tongtong, can you hear me? It’s Mommy,” Xu Yixue’s tender voice came through the phone.

“Mommy! Tongtong misses Mommy,” said Tongtong with a mouthful of grease, speaking in a childish tone into the phone.

“Is Tongtong having dinner?” Hearing Tongtong’s muffled voice, Xu Yixue knew that this little glutton must be eating something.

“Yes, Mommy, Daddy took Tongtong to eat lots of yummy things today, Tongtong is so full,” Tongtong said, and even patted her little belly with her hand, which inadvertently let out a satisfied burp.

“Tongtong, be good. Don’t eat anymore if you’re full, or you’ll turn into a little piggy,” Xu Yixue earnestly advised her precious daughter.

“Got it, Mommy. Tongtong will eat just one more bite and then stop,” Tongtong nodded her head, bit her chicken wing again, then continued to chew while talking unclearly.

“If Tongtong misses Mommy, why don’t you come and sleep at Mommy’s tonight?” Xu Yixue’s heart still wasn’t at ease about Tongtong, and she tried to coax Tongtong to come back from Xu Fan’s.

“No, no, Daddy is taking Tongtong to buy a car,” Tongtong shook her head, refusing Xu Yixue’s enticement.

“How is your dad going to buy a car if he’s been drinking?” Xu Yixue thought of Xu Fan mentioning that he was drinking and how someone who was drinking shouldn’t be out buying a car, disregarding the police’s role.

Unfortunately, Xu Yixue didn’t know that the boss of the Zhonghai Police Circle was sitting right next to Xu Fan, their arms across each other’s shoulders, calling him “brother” in an incredibly intimate manner.

“Mommy, don’t worry, Tongtong will take good care of Daddy,” Tongtong replied like a little adult, then giggled and hung up the phone.

Xu Yixue stared blankly at the phone; her precious daughter Tongtong had actually hung up on her.

In the past, when she was not home, Little Tongtong often called Xu Yixue and could talk all day long, never allowing Xu Yixue to hang up the phone. Ye Xiaoning often called her a little clingy spirit.

And now, just after spending a couple of days with Xu Fan, she hung up after a few sentences.

Could it be that I, as a mother, have lost all my charm?

Xu Yixue gradually felt a sense of crisis. Tongtong seemed to be getting more and more attached to his dad and didn’t rely much on Xu Yixue, his biological mother. For Xu Yixue, this was a very bad sign. If she let Tongtong stay with Xu Fan for a few more days, she feared he might cling to Xu Fan and refuse to leave.

She must retrieve Tongtong from Xu Fan’s side as soon as possible!

Sitting in the car, Xu Yixue thought quietly to herself.

Meanwhile, Xu Fan and Lu Chenbing had finally settled the matter of training the War Wolf Special Forces team for the time being.

Seeing that the meal was almost finished, Gu Chennong suggested that Xu Fan take Tongtong upstairs to the bedroom to rest for a while.

By now, Lu Chenbing and Xu Fan had nearly drunk six bottles of white liquor. Although Lu Chenbing had a great alcohol tolerance and was only slightly tipsy, he staggered while muttering:

“Good brother, I, Lu Chenbing, don’t admit inferiority to anyone, but I admit it to you!”

Xu Fan supported Lu Chenbing, asking the servant to escort him upstairs to rest.

However, Xu Fan didn’t plan to rest there himself, as alcohol simply had no effect on him.

Even though he had drunk three kilograms of white liquor, he was still clear-headed and showed no signs of drunkenness. Even if a traffic officer were to test his alcohol level, Xu Fan wouldn’t register any alcohol content.

Seeing that Xu Fan wasn’t drunk, Chennong let it go and didn’t insist on him going upstairs to rest. Instead, he looked at Lu Chenbing who was swaying upstairs and said to Xu Fan, “Although my brother holds a high position, he’s actually a man of emotion. I can tell that he really gets along well with you.”

“Yes, Brother Lu may be straightforward, but he is indeed a good person,” Xu Fan agreed.

“Why don’t you stay and play with Tongtong for a while then, and in the evening, I’ll have another chef prepare an English dinner,” Chennong invited again.

“Brother Lu, let’s skip dinner. I still have things to do, and I’d like to take Tongtong out for a bit,” Xu Fan declined.

“Is there something you need help with?” Chennong asked, seeing that Xu Fan was planning to leave.

“I want to buy a car. It’s really inconvenient to take my daughter out without one,” Xu Fan said with a smile.

“Hey, I have so many cars in my garage, you can just take any one you like,” Chennong casually waved his hand and offered.

“Brother Lu, that’s not okay. What’s yours is yours; I’m not a bandit,” Xu Fan chuckled and did not accept Chennong’s generosity.

Chennong didn’t mind, however. He saw the pride in Xu Fan’s eyes, so he didn’t push further. Then he compromised, “You don’t have to drive my car. But if you want to buy a car, you can go to Lu Family Port Car City. They’re all under my businesses, and if you go there, I’ll give you the cost price.”

“Oh? Brother Lu sells cars too? That works for me, saves me the trouble of looking around. But the price should be what it is. I’ve eaten Brother Lu’s food, I should at least pay you something,” Xu Fan smiled as he spoke to Chennong.

“If you talk like that, you’re treating me like an outsider. Just pay the cost price, not a penny more, or else you’re looking down on me, Lu Chennong,” Chennong insisted firmly to Xu Fan.

“Alright then, thank you, Brother Lu,” Xu Fan said, feeling a bit uneasy. To the uninformed, it would seem like he was at a great disadvantage.
