Chapter 136 Cai Xiangdong Goes West
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Zhonghai City’s Changlong International Wildlife Zoo, located in the western suburbs of Zhonghai City, covers an extensive area of over 800 acres. In a place like Zhonghai where land is worth its weight in gold, such a large plot is valued at over ten billion.
Additionally, Changlong International Wildlife Zoo is home to over a thousand species of animals, with hundreds of various themed exhibition halls, and a vast open area where visitors can drive through freely, experiencing the thrill of racing across the East African savannah, witnessing many animals chasing each other freely through the woods.
In the zoo, there are also a number of wildlife species that are considered rare worldwide, such as the South China tiger, Asian elephants, and the national treasure, the giant panda.
Xu Fan drove his Audi S7, heading to this most renowned zoo in Zhonghai City.
The zoo generally closes at 6 pm and Xu Fan’s afternoon arrival was already considered a bit late, so he sped up, hoping to allow Tongtong to enjoy a bit more time before closing.
As he neared the destination, Xu Fan glanced at his rearview mirror and noticed a silver-gray Mercedes A180 sedan following his car.
Back in the city center, the traffic was busy and Xu Fan hadn’t paid much attention to it, but now that he was approaching the suburbs and there were fewer cars on the road, Xu Fan clearly noticed this one.
Xu Fan had an excellent memory. When he had left his house, he saw this car tailing his, and now, after taking at least seven or eight turns and driving for over ten kilometers, the car was still behind him.
When things are abnormal, there’s a demon at play. Xu Fan gradually reduced his speed; he wanted to see the further reaction from the Mercedes following behind.
Sure enough, the Mercedes didn’t seem in a hurry to overtake Xu Fan. Instead, it also slowly reduced its speed, calmly matching Xu Fan’s.
Xu Fan deliberately slowed down and finally approached the Mercedes within a distance of more than twenty meters. Then, Xu Fan expanded his “Sea of Consciousness,” allowing all information within a thirty-meter radius with Xu Fan at its center to be instantly within his grasp.
Under the scrutiny of Xu Fan’s “Sea of Consciousness,” he discovered that the Mercedes was occupied by a young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, an educated and refined-looking person—it was none other than Cai Xiangdong, who Xu Fan had encountered blocking the road at Xinghai Media.
Xu Fan sneered. He had seen Cai Xiangdong once before, considering him a spineless piece of trash, so he ignored him, pressed the accelerator, and sped towards Changlong International Wildlife Zoo.
Minutes later, Xu Fan drove up and parked outside Changlong International Wildlife Zoo. After parking the car efficiently, Xu Fan led Xu Yixue, Ye Xiaoning, and Tongtong into the grand zoo.
“Daddy daddy, I want to see Peppa Pig, I want to see Pleasant Goat, and the elephant head of the village,” Tongtong excitedly said, perched on Xu Fan’s shoulder.
“Sweetheart, there’s no Peppa Pig here, but there are plenty of ‘wild Peppa Pigs,’” Xu Fan laughed heartily, tenderly pinching Tongtong’s little nose.
“Then Daddy has to protect me, wild pigs are scary,” Tongtong covered her little eyes, feigning fear.
“Don’t worry, even if a wild hog demon comes along, it won’t harm a single hair on my sweet daughter,” Xu Fan confidently said to Tongtong.
Hearing Xu Fan’s words, Xu Yixue rolled her eyes at him and said without any niceties, “Don’t spout nonsense to Tongtong, talking about monsters and ghosts, it’s a bad influence on the child!”
“Uh…” A line formed on Xu Fan’s forehead, as he thought to himself, “I’ve killed boar demons before, stop making such a fuss.”
“I’ll go buy the tickets.” They had arrived at the zoo’s ticket booth, and Ye Xiaoning smartly joined the queue to buy tickets.
Even though it was already afternoon, there were still many visitors around. These tourists had clearly traveled from all over the country, as the entrance tickets to Long Dragon International Wildlife Park were valid for two days because many people simply couldn’t cover it in one day, allowing them to come and go as they please within 48 hours of purchase.
At this moment, Xu Fan and Xu Yixue stood shoulder to shoulder outside the zoo. Xu Fan was handsome, Xu Yixue was stunningly beautiful, and together with the quirky little girl, Tongtong, the three of them made a very warm picture.
A man carrying a large camera couldn’t take his eyes off them. He jogged over and said to Xu Fan, “Sir, could I take a family photo for you? Don’t worry, I won’t charge you, I just saw a good scene and hope to record it forever.”
“No problem,” Xu Fan nodded, realizing then that he had never taken a photo with Tongtong to keep as a memory, so he readily agreed.
“Haha, Tongtong is going to take a photo, it has to be pretty!” Tongtong, energized by the attention, pursed her lips adorably and spoke to the photographer uncle.
“Alright, I’ll definitely make you into a beautiful little princess,” said the photographer uncle, who was almost melted by Tongtong’s cuteness and gave her a warm smile.
“I’d rather not be in the picture,” Xu Yixue said nervously. She wasn’t afraid of having her picture taken; she simply didn’t want to share a frame with Xu Fan.
“Ma’am, it’s a family portrait, a family portrait. How can it be one without the mother?” the photographer, seeing Xu Yixue’s reluctance, said to her earnestly.
“Mommy, Tongtong wants to take a photo with Mommy. Mommy can’t leave,” Tongtong also waved her little hands, gesturing fervently to Xu Yixue.
“Let’s take it together; it’s no big deal. If you don’t want to be photographed with me, I can leave,” Xu Fan said indifferently to Xu Yixue.
Although Xu Fan looked calm and composed, the observant Xu Yixue still saw a trace of disappointment on his face.
Xu Fan, who had always remained stoic even if Tai Shan were falling in front of him, now showed a hint of sadness because she was unwilling to be photographed with him.
Xu Yixue remembered Xu Fan attending to her ankle that morning with such serious care and suddenly felt that refusing him in front of others was a bit too inconsiderate, even cruel.
“I, Xu Yixue, have even been featured in ‘Beautiful Lady’ magazine, what’s there to fear in taking a photo with you?” Xu Yixue encouraged herself internally, then showed a generous smile and said to Xu Fan, “It’s nothing, let’s take the photo together.”
“Yay, Mommy, come quick.” Tongtong’s little hand wrapped around Xu Fan’s neck and rested on Xu Yixue’s shoulder, her face full of happiness.
Xu Yixue also boldly stood next to Xu Fan, looking straight into the camera lens, her face beaming with a radiant smile.
Her poise and charm were even more beautiful than those in “Beautiful Lady” magazine.
