Chapter 247: Dad is Back
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Just past seven in the morning, Xu Fan opened his eyes and woke up from his bed.
After a night of cultivation, Xu Fan felt no fatigue at all; instead, he felt refreshed and invigorated.
His dog Ben Ben seemed to sense Xu Fan’s energy as well, snapping out of the wonderful realm of practicing the “Swallowing Moon Divine Technique” with its tongue hanging out, looking at Xu Fan with a fawning doggy face.
“Let’s go see Tongtong in Kowloon New City, I’ve missed her after a day without seeing her!” Xu Fan said to Ben Ben.
“Woof Woof, this dog misses the young mistress too…” Ben Ben responded, shaking his head and acting like a clapping dog, devoid of any majestic presence that a Kylin beast should possess.
“Then let’s go!” Xu Fan did a somersault off the bed, grabbed his car keys, and led the dog out of the room.
After descending to the reception area, Xu Fan noticed that Song Qi, who was on the night shift the previous day, was no longer at the front desk; she must have gone off to rest. So he greeted another duty manager, checked out, and went straight to the hotel’s parking lot.
Xu Fan’s Supreme Black Diamond Card was not only a symbol of his status but also served as a membership card for multiple top domestic commercial companies. Staying at an international chain hotel like Hilton, he didn’t need to bother with any check-out procedures and other complexities; he could just leave.
Later, the hotel would settle all bills and submit them to the credit card center, where they would be directly charged to Xu Fan’s credit card account, without him needing to worry about anything.
After getting into the car, Xu Fan, along with Ben Ben, headed straight for Xu Yixue’s residence in Kowloon New City.
It was rush hour in Zhonghai City, and the streets were more congested with vehicles than pedestrians. Xu Fan spent nearly an hour driving before he finally arrived at Kowloon New City. While inching through the traffic, he even considered abandoning his car on the road and rushing to Kowloon New City using his swift movements, as his speed was no slower than driving. As for Ben Ben, it could easily keep up with him.
However, Xu Fan didn’t want to cause too much of a public stir, and though his movements were fast, they lacked the spaciousness of a car. If he wanted to take Tongtong out later, it would be inconvenient without a vehicle.
Finally reaching Kowloon New City, he discovered that even the residential complex’s gate was inaccessible. Last time, with Xu Yixue in the car, they had entered smoothly, but this time, being alone, the gate’s security couldn’t recognize his car, and his Audi S7 was blocked outside the residential area.
Xu Fan frowned. Accustomed to moving unimpeded in the Cultivation World, he was still somewhat uncomfortable with urban life. It was ridiculous to drive all the way only to be denied entry, especially after suffering through frustrating traffic, and now, he couldn’t even get through the community gate.
This wasn’t the first time he had encountered such a problem; he had previously had an unpleasant incident with the gate at his villa in Star of Zhonghai.
Now faced with a similar situation, Xu Fan wondered if he was cursed with bad luck with security guards, as there always seemed to be moments when they gave him a most annoying obstacle.
“Mo Luo Dan, I’m at the complex now, head to the security room and open the gate for me!” Xu Fan sent a message to Mo Luo Dan, who was still meditating under a tree inside the complex.
In less than twenty seconds, Mo Luo Dan rushed to Xu Fan’s car with great haste.
“Go in and have a good talk, but I’m not against using force. Have them take note of my license plate number so I won’t be blocked at the gate every time,” Xu Fan whispered to Mo Luo Dan.
“Don’t worry, young master, I’ll be cautious,” Mo Luo Dan respectfully nodded and walked into the security room with his fists clenched.
After ten seconds, the gate’s barrier lifted.
Xu Fan sped into the community, relying on memory, he navigated straight to the underground parking garage beneath Xu Yixue’s building and even parked in her dedicated spot.
After parking the car, Xu Fan led Ben Ben quickly toward the elevator.
Xu Yixue’s room was on the ninth floor. The elevator in Kowloon New City was remarkably fast, taking only just over thirty seconds to ping its arrival.
Xu Fan took a deep breath and straightened his slightly disheveled hair, standing at Xu Yixue’s door, he knocked twice.
Xu Fan didn’t have the keys to Xu Yixue’s home, so he had to knock. Although breaking through such a security door would be a piece of cake for a Martial Arts Grandmaster like Xu Fan, this was Xu Yixue’s home, so Xu Fan could only follow conventional procedures.
After the knock came a woman’s voice from inside, “Who is it?”
Upon hearing it, Xu Fan knew this voice was neither Xu Yixue’s nor Ye Xiaoning’s. It belonged to someone he had never met before.
There was no chance Xu Fan got the room number wrong, so how could there be an unknown person emerging out of thin air inside this room?
A plethora of thoughts shot through Xu Fan’s mind like lightning; then, in an instant, his Sea of Consciousness expanded, probing the situation inside the room.
A woman in her thirties, dressed in work clothes and with a towel around her head, holding a mop, was walking toward the door—it had been her who had spoken.
Her clothing bore the words “Star Housekeeping Gold Medal Employee,” clearly indicating she was part of the cleaning staff hired by Xu Yixue from a housekeeping company.
“I am Tongtong’s father, Xu Fan!” Xu Fan called out from outside the door.
“Tongtong’s father? I’ve never heard of that,” said the housekeeping employee Li Yueqin with a hint of confusion.
She had been working at Xu Yixue’s for some time. Since Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning were often busy with company affairs, most of the time, they relied on a housekeeping company to clean the home.
And this Li Yueqin was not just anyone; she was a gold-medal employee from the Star Housekeeping company, skilled not only in cleaning but also an excellent cook and capable of caring for children—a true multi-talented household assistant.
Since Xu Yixue had the little treasure, Tongtong, at home alone, she had hired this capable employee who could clean, cook, and take care of a child to help out at home. Naturally, Li Yueqin’s income wasn’t insubstantial. Although her profession wasn’t glamorous, she earned over ten thousand a month, surpassing sixty to seventy percent of Zhonghai City’s population.
Li Yueqin only knew that Xu Yixue was a big boss, and Tongtong was the boss’s precious daughter. She was unaware that Tongtong’s father was also in Zhonghai City, so she was skeptical about Xu Fan’s arrival and didn’t open the door for him immediately.
“Tongtong, someone outside says he’s your dad. Can you come and see if it’s him?” Li Yueqin went to Tongtong’s room and said to her.
“What, Daddy’s back?” Tongtong let out a sharp scream, her little legs carrying her towards the door, happiness written all over her small face.
