Urban Most Awesome Dad - Chapter 246
Chapter 246: Chapter 246 A Night at the Hotel_1
Back in his room, Xu Fan finally saw Ben Ben, his pet dog, whom he hadn’t seen for a whole day.
He had brought Ben Ben to the hotel when he came with Tongtong, but when he went to visit Xu Yixue, he did not bring Ben Ben along because Ben Ben had once scared her.
Having spent last night at Xu Yixue’s without returning to the hotel, Ben Ben practiced the “Swallowing Moon Divine Technique” taught by Xu Fan peacefully throughout the night at the hotel.
As soon as Xu Fan arrived, the little creature immediately perked up and trotted over to Xu Fan’s feet.
“Haha, don’t be so enthusiastic, I will need your help later to make the Blood Qilin Pill!” Xu Fan teased as he nudged Ben Ben with his foot.
“Woof Woof, I will definitely help Master make the pill! How can Ben Ben assist?” Ben Ben said cheerfully as it rolled around on the ground after being nudged by Xu Fan’s foot.
“It’s quite simple, all I need is a little blood from you!” Xu Fan said slowly.
With a “whoosh”, Ben Ben, who had been rolling on the ground, suddenly leaped away.
“This scaredy-cat, yet it has the Qilin Bloodline…” Xu Fan couldn’t help but laugh as he watched Ben Ben run away.
At that moment, Xu Fan’s phone began to vibrate.
Picking up his phone, he saw an invitation for a video call from Xu Yixue.
Xu Fan gently tapped to answer, and Tongtong’s cute little face appeared on the screen.
“Daddy, where are you? Why haven’t you come to see Tongtong so late?” Tongtong pouted, speaking with a childlike innocence.
“My little baby, Daddy is preparing a small gift for Tongtong tonight, so I can’t come back just yet; you have to be good and sleep with Mommy, okay?” Xu Fan said with a tender smile to Tongtong.
Even separated by the screen, his words were filled with gentle love.
“Eh, what gift is Daddy preparing for Tongtong?” Tongtong’s bright eyes shone as she looked at Xu Fan with a face full of happiness.
“It’s a secret for now; you’ll find out tomorrow,” Xu Fan said with a smile.
“But Tongtong wants Daddy to tell a story tonight, or how can Tongtong fall asleep…” Tongtong’s face turned sullen as she spoke with a hint of complaint.
“Ah, Daddy wants to tell a story too, but I need to prepare the gift for you. Otherwise, Daddy will have nothing to give to Tongtong tomorrow,” Xu Fan said, shaking his head.
“Boo hoo, so Daddy is not coming back to stay tonight?” Tongtong asked, still unwilling to accept it.
“Yes, I am not coming back tonight; you should go to bed early, Tongtong,” Xu Fan waved to Tongtong through the screen.
Meanwhile, at home in Kowloon New City, Xu Yixue lay on her side in bed, quietly watching the conversation between Tongtong and Xu Fan.
When Xu Yixue heard Xu Fan say he would not come, she felt a faint sense of disappointment, as if Xu Fan was supposed to sleep over at her place by default.
Thinking this, a blush crept over Xu Yixue’s face. Ah, what am I thinking? I don’t want that stinky Xu Fan coming over to my place at all. It’s better that he isn’t coming.
Using a pillow as a stand-in for Xu Fan, Xu Yixue kneaded it vigorously, venting her inner turmoil.
“Mommy, daddy said he won’t come home to sleep tonight… wuwu…” Tongtong said to Xu Yixue with a pitiful face.
“Hmph! If he doesn’t want to come, then let him be. What does that stinky man want in my house anyway? Just stay busy outside. We’re going to sleep early, hanging up now!” Xu Yixue took the phone from Tongtong and coldly spoke to Xu Fan, looking very much like a little wife sulking because her husband couldn’t come home.
Xu Fan still hadn’t figured out how he had offended Xu Yixue, the big shot, when he saw her abruptly hang up the video call.
The only thing Xu Fan managed to see was Xu Yixue right before she hung up, dressed in a pink silk nightgown.
Xu Yixue had a very impressive figure, and even through the video, one could still make out an alluring sweep of snow-white beneath that pink nightgown.
But Xu Fan only got a glance for less than a second before Xu Yixue hastily hung up the video call, granting him only a second of appreciation.
Xu Fan didn’t mind going to Xu Yixue’s place, but being the kind of person with a proud disposition, if Xu Yixue welcomed him, that was fine, but if she didn’t, he was not willing to impose his presence on someone who might not be as enthusiastic.
And Xu Yixue, although she wasn’t a cultivator, was coddled from a young age as the most beautiful woman of the Xu family. In terms of haughty airs, she was in no way less than Xu Fan, so for her to actively ask Xu Fan to come over was even more difficult.
Although Xu Yixue had a hidden desire for Xu Fan to come over, this would require Xu Fan to take the initiative, and then Xu Yixue might agree with some reluctance. But for her to outright invite Xu Fan was something her pride wouldn’t allow.
After hanging up the video call, Xu Fan shook his head, casually threw his phone on the table, and sat cross-legged on the bed, calming his mind and entering a state of cultivation.
Unknown to Xu Fan, besides Xu Yixue in Kowloon New City, there was another beauty at the reception desk of the Hilton Hotel who was also caught in a deep struggle.
This person was Song Qi, the head manager and beauty at the front desk of the Hilton Hotel.
Song Qi happened to be on the night shift tonight, and from the hotel’s front desk computer, she could see Xu Fan’s check-in information. Song Qi clearly knew that Xu Fan was spending the night alone at the hotel.
In Song Qi’s heart, two little figurines were fighting. The white one said, “Song Qi, he has a child and a wife. You can’t go. You can’t break someone’s family.”
The black one said, “He’s staying in the hotel alone, which clearly indicates that there are problems in his marriage. Why wouldn’t you seize the opportunity? This man is the best you’ve seen in years. Aren’t you going to at least try to win him over?”
“Go!”
“Don’t go!”
“Go!”
“Don’t go!”
…
The two figurines argued all night, and as expected, amidst their quarrel, Song Qi couldn’t resist the urge to sleep and dozed off.
The night passed quickly, and Xu Fan slept soundly in the presidential suite of the Hilton Hotel.
Actually, it couldn’t be called a sound sleep; it should be said that he spent the night peacefully practicing the “Swallowing Moon Divine Technique” in his room.
By now, Xu Fan no longer needed to sleep at all. Practicing his cultivation technique was more refreshing than sleep, but he hadn’t reached the Foundation Establishment realm yet. If he could refine the Blood Qilin Pill and achieve Foundation Establishment success, he would reach the state of Bigu, where he could go without eating.
