Chapter 1: The Eye-Catching Wedding

  The police were hesitating, and another voice came: "What are you still dazing about? Hurry up and catch him! Be careful he resists arrest. I'm telling you, my dad is the director of Suzhou TV station. If you dare to cover for him, I'll expose you!"

  It was Su Hai who said this. He had just crawled up from the ground, and seeing that he was fine after crawling up, Jiang Tao and Yun Qian naturally followed suit.

  "My dad is Jiang, the director of the municipal propaganda department. Hurry up and catch him!" Jiang Tao also said in a commanding tone to the police beside him.

  The police suddenly felt a headache, these few people are really not small, he couldn't help but look up at Ning Fan, should they be caught or not?

  Several other police officers were also watching this leading policeman, waiting for his instructions.

  Just then, the policeman's intercom came through with a voice: "I'm Shi Kun, are you on patrol at Minsheng Square?"

  "Yes, Captain Shi!" The policeman hastily replied.

  "Alright, get him under control quickly!" Shi Kun said hastily.

  "Alright, Captain Shi, I'll arrest Ning Fan right away." The policeman hastily replied, since he had Captain Shi's orders, he didn't have to worry, anyway he was just following orders.

  "Who told you to catch Ning Fan?" A sudden angry shout came from the other end of the phone.

  "Huh?" The policeman was suddenly at a loss, "Then, then Captain Shi, who am I supposed to catch?"

  "Ask Ning Fan who he wants you to catch and I'll be right there!" Shi Kun bellowed, before cutting off the communication.

  The police officer had a strange expression, while Jiang Tao, Su Hai and Yun Qian's faces changed drastically at this moment. What does this mean? Are they going to be arrested?

  "Let's handcuff them first and talk later." Ning Fang said calmly.

  "Oh, all right, all right." The police chief finally reacted and waved his hand at the several policemen behind him, "What are you waiting for? Why haven't you taken action?"

  Several other police officers received orders and finally took action.

  "No, you can't catch me, do you know who I am? I am..."

  "Don't dare to catch me, if you catch me, you're dead!"

  "What right do you have to arrest me? I haven't committed any crime! I'm going to file a complaint against you!"

  Three people quarreled and scolded each other, the onlookers were stunned again. This time, the one who beat others was not caught, but instead, the one who got beaten was taken away?

  "I say Ning Fan, can you be more awesome?" Seeing the three being pushed into the police car, Gao Feng finally couldn't help but speak up.

  "It's actually the power of this nursery rhyme journalist." Ning Fan explained casually.

  "Is Tongyao being interviewed here?" Lu Qing asked with some curiosity.

  "Yes, the municipal party secretary here is trying to curry favor with Tong Yao, hoping she can put in a good word for him. Those three idiots are actually quite clever, calculating Tong Yao's moves." Ning Fan muttered to himself, but he knew that those three people might not be fools after all. Once Jiang Tao really got his way, who knows what despicable means he would use to threaten Tong Yao?

  A few minutes later, more than a dozen police cars arrived, and the municipal public security bureau was like an empty nest. The team leader was Shi Kun, who let other police officers handcuff all the security guards and put them in the car, while he quickly came to Ning Fang's side.

  "Nothing's wrong with Little Ning and the young reporter, right?" Shi Kun glanced at Tong Yao in Ning Fan's arms and asked again.

  "It's fine, just had too much to drink." Ning Fan subconsciously glanced at Tong Yao, who was sleeping soundly.

  "That's good." Shi Kun let out a sigh of relief, "Ning Fan, don't worry, Secretary Zhang has promised to handle this matter strictly. Please do persuade Reporter Tong."

  "Don't worry, Uncle Kun, I'll persuade her." Ning Fang nodded.

  "Ah, I won't say much more in thanks, anyway, this time again thanks to you, I'll go handle it first, it's getting late, you also bring the young reporter back home to rest early." Shi Kun said quickly and then hastily bid farewell and left, he was destined to be busy again tonight.

  "We should also go." Ning Fang looked at Gao Feng and Lu Qing at this time.

  "Ning Fan, otherwise, you can send Tong Yue back home first?" Lu Qing suggested.

  Ning Fan shook his head: "I don't know where she lives either, let's just take her to Qingyun Mountain together, anyway I've prepared eight rooms, now that Ding Yu has left, it's just right."

  Lu Qing finally stopped talking, and the crowd rushed to get on the bus. However, Tong Yao still refused to let go of Ning Fan, so Ning Fan had no choice but to ask Gao Feng to drive for him.

  Nine people, three cars, quickly left the square and headed towards Qingyun Mountain. On the road, Ning Fan also called Ning An again, who was worried that no one would come. After hearing that they would arrive soon, Ning An finally felt at ease.

  It was already past 10 o'clock when I arrived at Ning'an Inn.

  "Uncle, you've finally arrived, I'm about to sleep." Ning Ke yawned and then caught sight of Tong Yao, "Wow, Uncle, is this Auntie? She's so beautiful!"

  "Don't spout nonsense, she's not my girlfriend." Ning Fan hastily denied, then instructed, "Keke, you're here just in time, she's drunk, help me take care of her tonight."

  "Oh, okay." Ning Ke responded with a single word, then followed Ning Fan to send Tong Yue to the room. This time, although Tong Yue still refused to let go, Ning Fan forcibly broke free and handed over the rest of the matter to Ning Ke to handle, after all, he had many inconveniences.

  Ning Fan didn't know that as soon as he left, Tong Yue opened his eyes and woke up.

  Everyone had moved into their rooms by now and it was almost eleven o'clock. Everyone was getting sleepy, so they each took a bath and went to bed. After all, they still had to go play at Qingyun Mountain tomorrow.

  Ning Fan also had a room here, this three-story flat house, the first floor was Ning's self-occupied, and the second and third floors were used as guest houses. After arranging everyone, Ning Fan returned to his own room and fell onto the bed, he also needed to rest for a while.

  Ning Fan lay on the bed for almost half an hour before he suddenly jumped up, sat cross-legged on the bed and started practicing his inner energy.

  The next morning, Ning Fan woke up at six o'clock again. After washing up, he was about to go out when he received a call from Ye Zi.

  "Uncle, you didn't come home last night!" Yezi shouted somewhat unhappily as soon as the phone connected.

  "Yèzi, I was with classmates last night." Ning Fan could only explain briefly.

  "Uncle, it's wrong to stay out overnight!" Yezi said with a huff, "It's all over the internet, men can fool around outside, but they must come home!"

  "Where did you see all that nonsense?" Ning Fan was quite speechless. "Alright, stop thinking wildly, I'm at my hometown."

  "I don't believe it!" Yezi still looked indignant.

  "If you don't believe me, just ask Ning Ke." Ning Fan was at a loss for words, laughing and crying at the same time.

  "Alright, uncle, I believe you." Yezi immediately changed her tone and started acting spoiled, "Uncle, when are you coming back? It's so boring being alone at home."

  Ning Fan thought for a moment and said: "I'll be their guide, I might not come back today or tomorrow, you can stay home and watch movies online, or go out shopping if you want."

  "Uncle, I want to go to the training base to see them practice, can I?" Ye Zi said.

  "En, it's okay, but don't practice yet, I'll teach you, it's different from what they're practicing." Ning Fan replied.

  "Got it, uncle! I'm going out for breakfast first!" Ye Zi became happy again. "Also, uncle, I'll get Ning Ke to help me keep an eye on you, don't think about fooling around with women there!"

  Ye Zi finished speaking and hung up the phone. Ning Fan couldn't help but cry and laugh at the same time, thinking that nowadays girls, at the age of 15 or 16, would think about such messy things.

  Ning Fan walked out of the room and came to the hotel restaurant, but found that everyone else had already gotten up. Even Tong Yao, who was drunk, had woken up, and at this moment, she was chatting with Lu Qing and the others very happily.

  "Little uncle, you used to be the first one to get up, but today you're the last one!" Ning Ke shouted.

  She shouted, and others also looked at Ning Fan. Tong Yao was no exception, but she just glanced at Ning Fan casually and immediately turned back to continue chatting with Lu Qing, as if she had completely forgotten what happened after getting drunk last night.

  "Good morning, Instructor." Ning Ke's two bodyguards greeted Ning Fan as they followed him, having also been given the day off.

  Ning Fan nodded and smiled, glancing at Gao Feng and the others: "What do you plan to do today? Most tourists usually climb mountains first, I reckon that'll take up a whole day for you, then tomorrow you can go to the reservoir, where you can row boats, fish, and have a barbecue."

  "I heard that Qingyun Mountain has a place where you can see waterfalls?" Tong Yao suddenly spoke up.

  "Huh?" Ning Fan was taken aback.

  "I heard there's a very beautiful undeveloped cave on the reservoir side?" Tong Yao continued to ask.

  "Where did you hear that?" Ning Fan asked back.

  "I also heard you're familiar with the no man's land?" Tong Yan asked again.

  Ning Fan swept his gaze over the crowd, his eyes finally landing on Ning Ke: "Keke, did you tell her?"

  "Uncle, I'm done eating!" Ning Ke put down his chopsticks and ran out of the dining hall, with the two bodyguards naturally following him.

  Ning Fan was speechless for a moment, and indeed it was this girl who had betrayed him.

  "Ning Fan, are all those things Tong Yao just said really true?" Lu Qing's eyes lit up, "Hiking and having barbecue, other places can also be played, but I've never seen a waterfall with my own eyes!"

  "Yes, Ning Fan, you must be very familiar with Qingyun Mountain? Why don't you take us to some more worthwhile places?" Gao Feng also showed great interest.

  "It's not that I don't want to take you there, it's just that those places have a certain level of danger." Ning Fan could only explain: "Otherwise, the scenic area would have developed those places long ago."

  "You might as well say that when she was less than ten years old, you took her there. If it's really dangerous, how dare you take her there?" Tong Yao spoke again.

  Ning Fan suddenly became somewhat annoyed: "You're not going to play, why bother so much?"

  "By the way, Ning Fan, Tong Xiang has decided to join us for fun, and then we'll head back to the provincial city together tomorrow afternoon." Lu Qing added.

  "Are you going too?" Ning Fan was taken aback, "Didn't you say you were going back today?"

  "Can't I change my mind?" Tong Yao said with a "none of your business" look.

  "Alright, suit yourselves. But I have to tell you again, those places are indeed dangerous. If I were only bringing one or two people over, I could still guarantee safety, but now there are eight of you in total, and I really don't have absolute confidence." Ning Fan glanced at everyone, "So, whether or not to go is up to you all to decide. If you insist on going, I'll take you there."
