Wang Chen left Fang Rui behind and rushed to the south gate in a hurry. He immediately rushed forward and apologized to Lan Ruoqiao.
Lan Ruoqiao didn't like others to explain their reasons, so even if she was just a little late, she was still late for a reason, so she didn't explain anything.
Being late is being late.
"Achen, if you come here a little slower, you won't be able to see me."
Lan Ruoqiao said with slightly raised corners of her mouth.
"My problem! My problem! Please forgive me this time. I promise there won't be a next time."
Upon seeing this, Wang Chen hurriedly stepped forward to hold Lan Ruoqiao's arm while the iron was hot.
"kindness."
Lan Ruoqiao nodded gently and said nothing more.
"What a coincidence! Can we go back now? If we want to go back, I may have to go into the city to refuel!"
The middle-aged man in the silver car suddenly shouted "ignorantly" towards Lan Ruoqiao.
"Old Dengtou! You're so annoying! You know how to tease me all the time!"
Wang Chen seemed to be very familiar with the middle-aged man. Wang Chen, who was holding Lan Ruoqiao's arm, gave the former a big roll of his eyes.
"Hey, you little girl, why are you becoming more and more ignorant as you grow older? Who do you call Lao Dengtou? No matter how big or small you are!"
The middle-aged man scolded Wang Chen with a smile on his face and a straight face.
"I……"
Wang Chen still wanted to refute, but after looking at the situation, he decided to let the middle-aged man go.
"Chenchen, long time no see! You are getting more and more beautiful as you grow!"
Seeing that Wang Chen was so familiar with Lan Ruoqiao's staff, Xu Feifan decisively seized the opportunity and joined forces.
"Thank you, Brother Fei, for the compliment."
Wang Chen hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded politely to Xu Feifan.
Judging from the current situation, the annoying fly Lan Ruoqiao chatted with her on text messages should be Xu Feifan.
Coupled with her inner resistance to Xu Bufan's family after learning the truth yesterday, she didn't want to appear too familiar with Xu Bufan.
But considering that in order to help Hongye and Fang Rui avoid unnecessary trouble, she would inevitably have to deal with Xu Feifan in the future, she finally chose not to ignore Xu Feifan and get close to her.
"Hey, calling Fei Ge is unfamiliar. You are Fei Fan's girlfriend. If you don't mind, just call me brother! Don't worry, although you are not related to Fei Fan, I will definitely help you when I come here.
The murderer of extraordinary people has been brought to justice!"
Xu Feifan continued to have a relationship with Wang Chen by using the name of his dead brother, and introduced the old man in a wheelchair to Wang Chen without any explanation:
"This is one of our three strongest consultants in District 11, Grandpa Xiahou Dan, a B-level powerhouse. With him here, as long as that thing called the bride dares to show up, he will definitely not be able to escape from his Wuzhishan."
"Hello, Grandpa Xiahou." Wang Chen nodded politely to Xiahou Dan, and then selectively ignored Xu Feifan's previous words.
"Well..." Xiahoudan made a faint nasal sound in response.
He didn't know Wang Chen's identity and only regarded the latter as a little girl who interested Xu Feifan but didn't know what was good or bad.
"I guess all of you distinguished guests have come all the way and haven't had a meal yet, right?"
Zhao Wuyan, who noticed that the atmosphere here was a bit tense, stepped forward at the right time and introduced himself:
"Zhao Wuyan, the city lord of the twenty-fourth district, has been waiting for you for a long time after receiving the instructions from the General Administration. Why don't we move to the city lord's palace and chat while eating..."
"City Lord Xu Shao, I am the Deputy City Lord of the 24th District, Mary Lu, who I have contacted you before. I am at the largest hotel in the 24th District. I have already prepared a banquet for you. Let's all go into the city to eat.
While chatting, let’s enjoy our twenty-four specialties.”
Seeing that Zhao Wuyan wanted to step forward to snatch someone away, Mary Lu immediately followed him unwilling to be outdone.
"That's right! After traveling for so long, you really need a good meal. Chenchen, tell me whether you want to go to the City Lord's Mansion or the Grand Hotel."
Xu Feifan seized the opportunity to look at Wang Chen again.
"Thank you for your kindness, brother Fei, but the city lord and deputy city lord are hosting a banquet for distinguished guests. It would be inappropriate for me to go along with them. What's more, I have my own good friends to entertain.
So, I appreciate your kindness, you should just eat yours, Ruoqiao and I will go to the snack street..."
Wang Chen resisted rolling his eyes and declined impulsively.
"Hey! Sheriff Wang, why do you say that you are also a member of our official team in the 24th District? How can you be so unsociable and interfere with official affairs for the sake of private matters?"
Lu Mary, who was determined to have a relationship with Xu Feifan, immediately took on the identity of a superior to suppress Wang Chen and said:
"Private parties can be placed after official business. As the Sheriff of the 24th District, you must attend the banquet to welcome distinguished guests!"
"I..." Wang Chen subconsciously wanted to refute that the city lord hadn't even spoken yet, what did you say? But as soon as she opened her mouth, Lu Mari, who noticed her eyes, looked at Zhao Wuyan preemptively and said:
"Do you think this is true? City Lord Zhao?"
"I..." Zhao Wuyan was stunned.
He didn't expect that Lu Mari would suddenly be so mean-spirited, putting him in a dilemma.
If he agrees, Xu Feifan will definitely be happy, but judging from the relationship between Wang Chen and Lan Ruoqiao, the people at the General Administration will definitely be unhappy.
Moreover, it was Mari Lu who got involved with Xu Feifan first, and Mari Lu proposed this idea. Even if he agreed, in Xu Feifan's eyes, he might not be more favorable to Mari Lu than Mari Lu.
Even if the people in the General Administration are unhappy, they may not be able to take advantage of Xu Feifan. Agreeing to it is definitely not cost-effective.
But if, in order to get a better deal, he directly sided with the General Administration and chose to disagree with Lu Mari's point of view, then he would be offended to death by Xu Feifan!
Although according to the target of the welcome, he was originally from the General Administration camp, but in order to satisfy the people from the General Administration, completely offending the young city lord of District 11 seemed to be a particularly uneconomical deal.
Therefore, it is difficult for him to make a choice because he feels that no matter what choice he makes, it is wrong.
"Ruoqiao has not liked crowded places since she was a child. Since Sheriff Wang and Ruoqiao know each other, then Sheriff Wang will receive Ruoqiao alone."
The middle-aged man who had been staying in the driver's seat of the silver car suddenly got out of the car and made a decision for Zhao Wuyan, and introduced himself to the people who suddenly looked at him:
"Deng Chaogang, the person in charge sent by the General Administration to the 24th District to thoroughly investigate the whereabouts of the 'Blood Red Bride'."
"Zhao Wuyan has met Chief Deng, the dispatcher of the General Administration!"
Zhao Wuyan, who was "rescued", immediately stepped forward and saluted Deng Chaogang, and then looked at Wang Chen and gave orders based on Deng Chaogang's decision:
"Now that Chief Deng has spoken, Sheriff Wang must take good care of all Miss Lan's affairs! Eat whatever you want, buy whatever you want, and don't worry about money. All expenses will be reimbursed by the City Lord's Mansion!
"
"Thank you City Lord!" Wang Chen happily hugged Lan Ruoqiao's arm and jumped up.
"Why are you thanking me? If you want to thank me, thank Chief Deng!"
"Okay!" Wang Chen nodded in response, and then when Deng Chao just raised his chin and was about to accept his thanks, he pulled Lan Ruoqiao away and said:
"Then City Lord Zhao, Chief Deng, Ruoqiao and I will take our leave first."
‘This girl!!!’
Deng Chaogang twitched his lips as he watched Wang Chen and Lan Ruoqiao leave, but in the end he didn't say anything.
Who can I blame for the spoiled girl I have spoiled?
…
"Achen, isn't it inappropriate for you to deny your cousin face in front of so many people?"
"There is nothing inappropriate. With the status of a dispatcher from the General Administration, no one dares to disrespect Old Deng. What's more, even if someone wants to disrespect Old Deng, they don't have the strength! Don't forget, Old Deng is
A boss with B-level perfect strength."
"Pfft, why have you changed so much? You talk so naughty, like a little girl."
Lan Ruoqiao smiled wildly,
"Who are you talking about?" Wang Chen frowned in feigned anger, and then stretched out his sinful hand towards Lan Ruoqiao without any hesitation:
"You're calling me my little sister! Look how I bully you!"
"Hey, don't mess around! It's on the street!"
"It's okay, this is a small road, there are not many people! I will do it quietly, no one can see it!"
"Hello!"
"Wow! You haven't grown again in these years, have you? Why do I feel that you are already D size?!"
Wang Chen stopped and looked at his "salty hands" with an exaggerated expression.
"Why did you really get started?!" Lan Ruoqiao blushed in embarrassment.
"Why are you still shy?! How can I resist and not give you another test?" Wang Chen pounced on him again in a rogue manner.
"Don't make trouble! Someone is watching!"
Lan Ruoqiao grabbed Wang Chen's hands in shame and anger.
"Is there anyone?!"
Wang Chen quickly stopped and looked around.
This wasn't the first time she had fought with Lan Ruoqiao like this. Since the latter was so resistant, someone must have been hiding in a corner that she didn't notice.
"I originally wanted to come out and say hello directly, but you were right there as soon as you entered this alley...I didn't find the right time, so..."
Fang Rui, knowing that his whereabouts had been discovered, walked out a little embarrassed.
At this time, he had already taken off the clothes he wore while riding a motorcycle and put on a brand new set of sportswear.
"If it's a coincidence, he is..."
Wang Chen was a little stunned when he saw Fang Rui walking out. According to the agreement she had made with Fang Rui on the motorcycle, the former should find a suitable time to come out and pretend to meet them by chance.
Now that Fang Rui was directly discovered by Lan Ruoqiao, she really didn't know how to introduce him.
"Achen, is this your new boyfriend?"
When Wang Chen was in danger, Lan Ruoqiao took the initiative to ask her doubts.
"Ah?! Him?! Of course not! You...how could you ask such a strange question? How could I find a new boyfriend so quickly?"
Wang Chen replied in a panic.
Lan Ruoqiao's question really caught her off guard.
"Really? I saw that you guys came together, and I thought he was your boyfriend."
"You...you know we came here together?" Wang Chen looked at Lan Ruoqiao guiltily.
The drama she planned with Fang Rui seemed a bit redundant.
"Well..." Lan Ruoqiao nodded slightly, then stretched out her finger, pointed at Fang Rui accurately and said:
