Supreme Hidden Dragon in the City-Chapter 423: Wang Shihao’s Hobby
Chapter 423: Chapter 423: Wang Shihao’s Hobby
Outside Qingyang Grand Hotel.
Chen Fan hadn’t told Su Qingyan what An Lan had asked him to do. As Su Qingyan, with her arms linked in Chen Fan’s, walked out, she couldn’t contain her curiosity and asked, "What did An Lan talk to you about?"
Considering Su Qingyan’s great admiration for An Lan and not wanting to shatter the idol image in her mind and affect her mood, Chen Fan smiled and said, "She just thanked me for buying her so many clothes, not much else."
Su Qingyan nodded without thinking too much about it, then asked, "What’s An Lan like as a person?"
Chen Fan pondered for a moment and said, "She’s quite aloof, and a bit neurotic too."
Su Qingyan looked confused, "Neurotic?"
Chen Fan replied, "She might be... too self-centered and too arrogant."
Su Qingyan nodded, "She is beautiful and talented, it’s normal for her to be a bit arrogant."
Chen Fan changed the subject, "Alright, let’s not talk about her anymore. Let’s think about our next steps. I took a look at the travel brochure of Qingyang Town earlier. We can stay in the hotel or in a guesthouse; how would you like to stay?"
In Qingyang Town, hotel accommodations are included in the ticket price, with different ticket levels providing different grades of rooms. The Exclusive Ticket entitles the holder to the top-tier presidential suite.
As Qingyang Town developed, more people settled there, and naturally, guesthouses started to spring up.
However, staying in a guesthouse in Qingyang Town meant paying extra money, and since the town was cut off from the world, sometimes the guesthouses were even more expensive than the hotels.
After thinking it over, Su Qingyan said, "Let’s stay in a guesthouse. That way we can get a better feel of life here."
Chen Fan nodded, "Then let’s look for a suitable one."
Not far from Qingyang Grand Hotel, many people could be seen waiting outside the hotel’s fence, eagerly greeting customers with warm smiles.
Some of them were tour guides, some were guesthouse owners, and others sold unique souvenirs from the town.
Wang Shihao and Xu Ting also appeared here at this time.
They had found a secluded spot earlier and talked for a long time, missing the dinner and the fashion show.
Xu Ting had gone to great lengths to explain to Wang Shihao that she didn’t think less of him and that Han Xiao had said such things just to clear his own name, and she finally managed to smooth things over.
After that, Wang Shihao questioned Xu Ting about why she had been messing around with Han Xiao behind his back.
Xu Ting then made up the excuse that Han Xiao had seduced her in secret and even forced her by using his intimidating power.
While saying these things, she was actually very nervous inside because anyone could tell she was shirking responsibility, but what surprised her was that Wang Shihao accepted her reasons very easily.
The two reconciled and decided to pin all the blame for ruining their wonderful trip on Chen Fan and Su Qingyan, considering them the culprits behind their misfortunes.
Wang Shihao hadn’t told Xu Ting that the reason he had so easily accepted her excuses and hadn’t blamed her was because, upon learning that Xu Ting had been fooling around behind his back, he had felt an inexplicable sense of excitement.
He even wanted Xu Ting to do something even more outrageous behind his back; just thinking about those scenarios made his heart race and he felt incredibly thrilled.
The two had just arrived when they saw Chen Fan and Su Qingyan walking ahead of them.
Wang Shihao immediately showed a resentful expression, "It’s those damn people again. Just seeing them makes me feel sick."
Xu Ting said helplessly, "Dear, even if you’re annoyed with them, don’t go looking for trouble with them. Look how powerful Han Xiao is; he got kicked flying. We can’t handle Chen Fan at all."
Wang Shihao clenched his fists, wanting to rush over and beat Chen Fan up like he used to when they were kids, but he didn’t dare.
At that moment, he suddenly had an idea and a malicious smile appeared on his face. Then he picked up a stone from the ground, "You’re tough to deal with, I can’t take you down, but bullying the woman by your side is always an option, right?"
He raised his hand, readying himself to forcefully throw the stone in his hand towards Su Qingyan’s back and was preparing to grab Xu Ting and run away immediately.
In that instant, Chen Fan and Su Qingyan both sensed the danger.
Su Qingyan’s strength was not something ordinary people could match, and she could sense such crises in advance.
However, before the two could react, a crisp shout rang out, "What are you doing! Why are you throwing a stone at that sister!"
Wang Shihao was startled, and when he turned his head, he saw a girl around seventeen or eighteen, pretty and with ponytails, frowning at him.
He glared at the girl and cursed, "None of your fucking business, keep your nose out of it!"
Then he dropped the stone and hurried to take Xu Ting away.
Chen Fan’s icy voice sounded, "Stop right there!"
Wang Shihao wanted to run away fast, but for some reason, after hearing that voice, his legs felt as if they were filled with lead and he couldn’t lift them.
With no other choice, he turned around and showed Chen Fan an awkward smile, "What... what’s up?"
Chen Fan stared coldly at him, "You were about to throw a stone at my girlfriend just now?"
Wang Shihao vehemently denied it, "Bullshit, I wouldn’t stoop to such a thing. Chen Fan, if you’re going to slander me, at least come up with a better excuse!"
The girl indignantly said, "You’re lying, I clearly saw you with the stone aiming at that sister, and you still won’t admit it, it’s utterly despicable!"
Wang Shihao glared at the girl again, then said to Chen Fan, "Don’t listen to this little bitch..."
Before he could finish his words, Chen Fan had already slapped him hard.
Wang Shihao’s body instantly fell to the ground, a purple handprint appearing on his face, and he howled in pain.
Chen Fan glared at him, "Seeing as you’re a relative of mine, I’ll just teach you a lesson this time. If you dare have thoughts of bullying my girlfriend again, I’ll make you taste regret."
Then he turned around, looked at the girl, and said, "Thank you."
Even if the girl hadn’t warned them, Wang Shihao wouldn’t have been able to hurt Su Qingyan, but gratitude was still necessary.
The girl’s eyes curved into crescents, "No need to thank me, this sister is as beautiful as a fairy; it would be terrible if she were hurt."
Chen Fan found the young lady’s words to his liking and smiled, asking, "Are you from town?"
The girl nodded her head.
"We’re looking for a homestay. Could you help us out? I can give you some compensation."
The little girl was kind-hearted; I’ll give her a little extra for her help, Chen Fan thought to himself.
The girl said with a smile, "My family runs a homestay. If brother and sister don’t mind, you could stay at our place."
Chen Fan’s eyes lit up, and turning to Su Qingyan for her opinion, she nodded in agreement. Chen Fan said with a smile, "That’s perfect, then. Could you please take us to your place?"
The girl led Chen Fan and Su Qingyan away from there.
After Chen Fan had left, Xu Ting dared to run up to Wang Shihao and help him up. "Honey, are you okay?"
Wang Shihao was still grimacing in pain and then glared viciously in the direction Chen Fan and the others had left, cursing, "You son of a bitch, just wait, my father is a friend of the head of the Qingyang Town Homestay Management. This is his turf, and no matter how tough you are or how rich, you have to play by his rules here. I’m going to find him, and I’ll make sure you regret it!"
