144: Want to come up and play together?

Hu Xiaoqiu was stunned for a moment, then burst out cursing, "What are you? This is my family business, what does it have to do with you? Go back where you came from, scram."

Her temper flared up instantly, and she completely lost her mind.

Wu Fan was not annoyed. He put his arm around Bai Yan and walked toward the door, saying, "Xiao Yanyan, let's go back. You'll only suffer grievances staying here."

Bai Yan hugged Wu Fan's waist and nodded, "Mom, I'm leaving."

She still turned back to say goodbye.

Hu Xiaoqiu glared fiercely at her, "Your wings have grown hard now, don't come back once you leave."

Bai Yan felt a pang in her heart and said nothing more.

Hu Xiaoqiu watched the two figures gradually walk away, and suddenly felt a shock in her heart, regretting her actions somewhat.

Why was she so impulsive just now?

Her Boyfriend looked very rich; perhaps she could rely on him someday.

She wrestled with herself internally for a long time, feeling suffocated and uncomfortable.

After all, Bai Yan had just wired her ten thousand yuan a few days ago. Why couldn't she speak to her calmly?

But then she thought, Bai Yan was a worthless wretch, and she never needed to be nice to her.

Who asked her to come into the world and ruin her life?

... On the way back, Bai Yan sighed, "Brother Fan, you saw it yourself. My mother is always like this. She loses her temper and curses people for no reason. She's completely unreasonable, and her words are especially harsh."

Wu Fan said calmly, "We can't choose our mothers, but we can choose our future, right? Keep going, things will definitely get better and better."

Bai Yan raised her eyes and nodded with a determined gaze.

After sending Bai Yan back to school, Wu Fan stopped at the school gate and smoked a cigarette.

He took out his phone and called Pan Shiting, "Where are you?"

"Brother Fan, I'm at the shop."

"Supervising the work so diligently, shouldn't you get a reward?"

Pan Shiting laughed clearly upon hearing this, "Okay, come pick me up at the shop."

Wu Fan hummed in acknowledgment and hung up the phone.

When he walked into the shop, Wu Fan was surprised. A crowd of workers was busy, and the project progress was extremely fast; it looked like most of the work was already done.

Lilin Decoration Company was indeed efficient, with plenty of staff and fast speed.

Pan Shiting smiled brightly and hooked her arm through Wu Fan's, "Look, the renovation isn't bad, right?"

She was wearing a white short-sleeved top underneath, highlighting her proud figure undeniably. Over it, she wore a white suit jacket, looking very capable.

Below, she wore loose-fitting jeans and white sneakers.

The style was fashionable yet full of youthful energy, making her look very young.

"You look beautiful today," Wu Fan murmured, pinching her cheek.

Pan Shiting smiled bashfully, blushing slightly, "Are you saying I looked old before?"

Wu Fan wrapped his arm around her slender waist and gently rubbed it, "Today you look like a twenty-year-old career woman, much more vibrant."

Pan Shiting whispered close to his ear, "Xinyue Bay Resort Hotel, it's been a long time since we went. I miss it so much."

Wu Fan chuckled, "Are you itching for it?"

"Behave."

Wu Fan leaned in and softly asked, "Have you learned any new Sakura Country skills lately?"

Pan Shiting looked full of bashfulness and whispered back to Wu Fan, "Plenty of them. Do you want to try them out?"

Wu Fan couldn't help but burst out laughing, "You sexy fox spirit."

Pan Shiting's face was flushed and her ears were hot as she urged, "Let's go quickly."

"Where are we going?"

"Wu Fan, stop messing around. Hurry up and go to Xinyue Bay. I can't wait another moment."

Wu Fan smiled and patted her most voluptuous spot, and they walked toward the Audi Q7 together...

When he walked into the lobby of Xinyue Bay Resort Hotel, Wu Fan immediately thought of Lin Jingyi.

That girl is now completely dedicated to the tea house; she is putting her heart into it.

The tea house is her hope for the future.

She plans to use the tea house as a base to start online live streaming sales once it opens.

She is quite confident in her appearance.

If the live stream becomes popular, she might be able to boost tea sales for her entire hometown.

This is her little dream.

Having a dream is always a good thing, whether it can be realized or not.

Only with dreams is there hope! Maybe it will come true someday!

People should have dreams.

The bigger the heart, the bigger the dream, and the greater the potential will be.

"Wu Fan, why are you spacing out? You're not thinking about that ethereal Tea Master, are you?" Pan Shiting teased, bringing her red lips close to his ear.

Wu Fan was surprised, "Are you a fortune teller? You saw right through my thoughts."

Pan Shiting covered her mouth and chuckled, "Really? Did you sleep with her?"

Wu Fan whispered, "Why? Do you want me to tell you the difference?"

Pan Shiting raised her hand and hit his chest, "You old pervert, I'm not interested in that."

Wu Fan leaned in and whispered, "You're very confident in your own technique, aren't you?"

Pan Shiting replied, "Before I met you, I wouldn't dare say that, but now I'm absolutely confident and justified."

Wu Fan laughed heartily.

He went to the front desk hoping to book a presidential suite, but it was gone; someone else had already taken it.

Wu Fan had no choice but to book a senior suite.

Pan Shiting didn't mind, "Wu Fan, it's okay, a suite is fine too."

While waiting for the elevator, Gu Ling and Jin Qiang walked out—one with white hair, the other with smooth black hair.

Wu Fan paused for a moment, then smiled and greeted her, "CEO Gu, are you staying in the presidential suite?"

Gu Ling was startled for a moment when she saw Wu Fan.

She really didn't want anyone to know that she was with Jin Qiang.

However, she quickly relaxed. Since Wu Fan already had the photos, it didn't matter if he saw them; she didn't care anymore.

After glancing at Wu Fan, she fixed her gaze on Pan Shiting.

She chuckled and asked, "Wu Fan, is this your new Girlfriend?"

Wu Fan retorted, "What do you mean 'new Girlfriend'? You make it sound like I date many people."

CEO Gu smiled Sweetie, "Consider it my mistake, alright?"

Thinking she might as well humor Jin Qiang, the old pervert, she tightened her grip on his arm and said sweetly, "It's rare for us to stay in the presidential suite. We've wanted to experience it for a long time. Do you two want to come up and hang out later?"

Wu Fan saw a hint of shyness and alluring charm in her eyes.

The old man Jin Qiang was very happy. Looking at Pan Shiting, his eyes shone brightly, "Come hang out! We are just going to buy something to eat outside and will be right back. Can you come in ten minutes?"

Wu Fan's eyes darkened slightly, and he cursed inwardly, "You want us to come up? You're too old for that. Dream on."

"Thanks, but no need. We're going to wash up and sleep; we're too lazy to move again."

Jin Qiang, however, continued to encourage them, "Why don't you come up? It's more fun with more people, isn't it?"

Only then did Pan Shiting understand the underlying meaning, and her face instantly flushed crimson.

She pursed her lips and said, "Wu Fan, let's go. I'm a little hungry."

Wu Fan nodded, pressed the elevator button, and stepped inside.

Gu Ling called out from behind, "Wu Fan, if you want to come up and play, just send me a wechat message, okay?"
