Chapter 525: Chapter 525: Ren Tianhei_1 Chapter 525 -525: Ren Tianhei_1 Xu Fan glanced around the hall with a frown, feeling a repulsive nausea.

But, remembering it concerned his father, he still steeled himself to stop a waitress and find out where booth number 5 was before heading straight there.

New n𝙤vel chapters are published on novelbuddy.cσ๓.

Once inside booth number 5, he realized the space was quite small, and Li Qianqian had long been waiting inside.

On the pink sofa, she twisted her body into an alluring S-shape, like a water snake, her posture accentuated by a forward thrust and arching back.

She wore a soft, pink spaghetti strap dress with a plunging neckline that displayed her fair, delicate skin.

The high slit of the dress revealed a glimpse of her plump rear.

In her hand was a glass of red wine, which she swayed gently.

...

Xu Fan took a seat across from her on the sofa, his expression one of utter calm.

Li Qianqian seemed in no hurry.

After taking a sip of wine, her cheeks flushed even more.

She looked over with a drunken, alluring gaze and seductively licked her wine-stained lips.

However, Xu Fan simply ignored her, his face showing no interest whatsoever.

“I have limited patience,” Xu Fan said coldly.

“You have three minutes to tell me everything I want to know.”

“Fan Fan,” Li Qianqian began in a wretched tone, “I remember how you used to cherish someone deeply.

Why have you become so heartless now?”

“The past is the past; now is now.

You are you; I am I.

We no longer have any connection,” Xu Fan said.

“Originally, there was no need for us to see each other again.

This visit is solely for the information you claim to have.

Don’t get the wrong idea.”

“If you’re trying to deceive me, you should be aware of the consequences.

Dolt Fang won’t be able to back you up because I simply don’t regard him at all.

If I wish, not just that worthless good-for-nothing, but the entire Xu Family he belongs to could be upended by me.”

“Also, please address me by my full name.”

Xu Fan’s voice was low and magnetic, exuding a commanding presence that was unmistakably masculine.

Li Qianqian was momentarily stunned, attracted by Xu Fan’s masculinity—his aloofness, his authority, and his handsome features—which inadvertently stirred her desires.

“Fan Fan…”

Li Qianqian, seemingly lost in a silly crush, cooed softly with a flirtatious glance.

It didn’t seem like an act, but rather a genuine moment of weakness.

No wonder, considering that Xu Fan had changed dramatically, no longer the dissolute young master.

Aside from meeting the standard of a wealthy and attractive man, he also embodied the aura of a domineering CEO.

Unwittingly, he caused this woman to become utterly infatuated and lost in longing.

Li Qianqian couldn’t help but make a comparison in her mind—next to Xu Fan, Xu Fangcheng seemed nothing more than a jumping clown.

She even entertained the idea of taking this opportunity to turn the tables, engaging in an act that could become real with Xu Fan, thereby abandoning Xu Fangcheng and becoming Xu Fan’s woman again.

Yet no sooner had this thought surfaced than Xu Fan crushed it in its cradle.

“Please address me by my full name.

If you call me that again, I won’t hesitate to teach you a lesson,” Xu Fan’s cold voice rejected Li Qianqian completely.

“Also, speak plainly about your terms.

As long as I think the information is worth it, I will meet your demands.”

Li Qianqian was instantly sobered by his response, her infatuation swiftly replaced by a touch of anger.

She sat up straight, casually flipped her hair, and said coldly, “Xu Fan, I didn’t expect you to be so ruthless.

I was blind to have given myself to you…

but let’s forget it.

Since we can’t go back, let’s just go through the motions and have a parting drink, which I propose as my condition.

Once we drink, I’ll tell you what you want to know.

Consider it compensation for the care you once showed me and the money you spent on me.

After this, we are settled, with no further ties.”

Having said that, she patiently awaited Xu Fan’s response.

Xu Fan imperceptibly frowned and said, “Fine, then as you say, I hope you’ll give a full and honest account.

Otherwise, I really won’t be polite.”

“Hmph, you still doubt my character at this point?

I’m truly disappointed.”

Li Qianqian clenched her teeth and shot Xu Fan a hateful glance before she walked over to the table, poured the awakened red wine into a glass, and handed it to Xu Fan.

Xu Fan reached out and took it.

“Here’s to a happy break-up!”

Li Qianqian forced out an ugly smile and, taking the initiative, clinked her glass gently against Xu Fan’s.

Immediately afterward, Li Qianqian tilted her neck back and slowly finished the wine in her glass, after which she turned the glass over to show Xu Fan, indicating that she had finished every last drop and that he shouldn’t take any liberties.

Xu Fan too tilted his neck, lifting the glass to drink.

Li Qianqian’s gaze tightly followed his wine glass, her powder fist clenched unconsciously.

“No, wait…”

However, Xu Fan suddenly set the wine glass aside, and glanced coldly at Li Qianqian, his voice chill as he said, “In my memory, you were never the sentimental type.

You’ve always been an advocate for money above all.

Could the benefit of me drinking this wine possibly be worth more than you extorting hundreds of millions from me?”

“Xu Fan, what do you mean by that?

You look down on me that much?”

The panic in Li Qianqian’s eyes flashed momentarily before she composed herself and retorted angrily, “Do you think my eyes see only money?

Are the love and passion we shared in the past only measurable in money?

Xu Fan, I’m a woman, and women are emotional creatures, far more detailed and serious in matters of the heart than you men.

I wanted to use this glass of wine to formally bid farewell to our past relationship, which ended without warning and without cause.

Is there something wrong with that?”

“Ha, those are beautifully spoken words, but…” Xu Fan suddenly stood up, looking down mercilessly at Li Qianqian, and said, “This glass of wine, it’s not just any wine, there’s something added to it.”

“…” Li Qianqian was suddenly stunned silent.

But how did Xu Fan know?

She didn’t understand.

Suddenly, Xu Fan emitted an icy intimidating aura that made Li Qianqian shiver involuntarily, her nerves still trembling.

“It seems I wasn’t wrong, there’s not a single truthful word from your mouth; you don’t have any news about my father at all.

Damn it, you actually dare to deceive me with such a matter, are you ready to face my wrath?”

Xu Fan’s reaction was extreme, but not without reason; anyone who was deceived about the truth of their own father’s death would find it intolerable.

Overwhelmed by Xu Fan’s aura, Li Qianqian felt as though she had fallen into an abyss, awaiting a fate of being shattered to pieces without redemption.

“No, I do have some information…” Li Qianqian cried out in panic, her thoughts a mess as she blurted out everything she knew to save herself.

“Well, spit it out quickly then!”

Xu Fan’s shouted command, filled with force, directly dispelled Li Qianqian’s scattered thoughts, causing her to lose her reason.

Li Qianqian’s delicate body trembled, and in fright, she hurriedly blurted out everything she knew.
