水蜜桃实验室

“Yixue, don’t be anxious, let me analyze this for you,” Ye Xiaoning said earnestly. “If we are talking about the Xu Fan we saw before, I think he was absolutely unworthy of you, but the Xu Fan now, I feel, is like a completely different person, not at all like a common spoiled young master. You don’t know the status martial artists hold in this world; they are the ones many great families vie to recruit. Besides, Xu Fan has an incredibly miraculous medical skill. Let’s not even mention your foot; just think about Lu Chennong, the richest man in Zhonghai. He had been ill for many years without any improvement, yet he got better under Xu Fan’s care. This is enough to prove that Xu Fan’s potential is far beyond what we see now.”

“So what if he knows how to treat illnesses? If Tongtong fell sick, I refuse to believe that as a father, he would just sit back and ignore it,” Xu Yixue said, her voice tinged with irritation.

“Yixue, you can’t let your emotions cloud your judgment, always thinking the worst of him. Look at his dog; it was originally just a lame puppy, but in Xu Fan’s care, not only was its leg healed, it even became a beast as powerful as a martial artist. People like him seem like hermits from a realm beyond, not some trash kicked out of his family home. Could it be that during this time, he encountered some extraordinary adventure?” Ye Xiaoning said with a hint of interest to Xu Yixue.

As someone who came from a special forces background, she naturally admired the strong. Seeing Xu Fan’s exceptional strength, she unconsciously developed a good impression of him, and her view of Xu Fan improved significantly.

Hearing Ye Xiaoning’s words, Xu Yixue’s mind also conjured up images of Xu Fan’s tall figure.

On the second floor, when she was startled by the dog, it was his long arms that held her, and when she fell from the second floor, it was into his warm embrace. Although Xu Yixue was verbally unyielding, deep down, she felt that Xu Fan’s embrace was truly safe and warm.

Honestly, the current Xu Fan was indeed more impressive than before, sunny and cheerful, with a hint of arrogance and mystery, yet he radiated a desire to be explored.

He was like an ideal partner wrapped in a radiant golden armor and trailing a rainbow—a far cry from the likes of Qin Haowen. Without the incident of the past, Xu Yixue would have very much liked to find out more about him, but having spent five years in America alone with her child, her resentment towards Xu Fan ran deep, and it was impossible for her to forgive him easily, let alone develop a fondness for him.

However, Xu Yixue could also see that Xu Fan’s love for Tongtong was as unconditional as her own. It wasn’t a bad thing for Tongtong to have such a mysterious and powerful father; it was certainly much better than having a worthless drunkard for a dad.

As these thoughts circulated in her mind, Xu Yixue gradually came to her senses and scolded herself for constantly thinking about him. She then gently massaged her forehead and began contemplating the development strategies for Xinghai Media.

“Only if I become strong can I give Tongtong more. Although the current Xu Fan is very impressive, I, Xu Yixue, am not to be underestimated. I will build Xinghai Media into the strongest enterprise in Zhonghai, making my daughter Tongtong the princess of Zhonghai.”

After Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning left, Xu Fan picked up his precious daughter who was still foolishly looking at the tail of her mother’s car and kissed her, saying, “Mommy’s car has long disappeared from sight. Come on, let’s go home.”

“Daddy, will Mommy come back?” Tongtong asked Xu Fan with a hint of hope.

“Of course, she will. Mommy will definitely come back to see Tongtong,” Xu Fan said, sounding somewhat deflated.

Although Tongtong was quite attached to him, her affection was especially pronounced when she saw her mother. Xu Fan estimated that keeping her here would be quite a challenge.

“Daddy, Tongtong is hungry,” Tongtong’s little stomach growled, and she patted it before pouting at Xu Fan.

“Come on, Daddy will make you something to eat,” Xu Fan put aside his thoughts, picked up Tongtong, and entered the villa.

Xu Fan placed Tongtong on the sofa, instructed her to watch TV with Ben Ben, and then he went into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Xu Fan quickly turned on his phone and started learning the latest children’s nutritional breakfast recipes.

Although Xu Fan couldn’t cook, he could mimic, and as long as he watched once, he could replicate it exactly.

After watching the breakfast preparations on the video once, Xu Fan began bustling about with a clang and clatter.

In less than twenty minutes, a delicious, fragrant nutritional breakfast appeared in the dining room.

Xu Fan, swift as the wind, picked up Tongtong from the sofa and placed her in a dining room chair, also tying a snow-white napkin around the little one’s neck.

“Daddy’s cooking smells so good!” Tongtong exclaimed excitedly, tasting a piece of the egg roll.

“Then Daddy will make breakfast for Tongtong every day, how about that?” Xu Fan said with a smile, his daughter’s praise making him happier than if he had advanced directly from the Qi Refinement Realm to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

“Yay, yay, Tongtong wants to eat Daddy’s cooking every day and get chubby!” Tongtong cheerfully spoke while eating.

“Tongtong can’t get chubby, Tongtong needs to be a little princess, and little princesses can’t be too fat, they must be beautiful,” Xu Fan kindly instructed Tongtong.

Tongtong’s mother, Xu Yixue, was a perfect example, tall and slim, beautiful like a fairy, even though her temper could be a bit much. Nevertheless, Xu Fan was quite satisfied with her image.

Tongtong, in the future, must become as pretty as her mother, and not overeat and become a little chubby dumpling.

“But Daddy’s cooking is too yummy, Tongtong always wants to eat and eat and eat,” Tongtong said cutely, shaking her head.

“No problem, Daddy has a way to make sure Tongtong doesn’t get fat no matter how much she eats.” Xu Fan thought it over—he should probably brush up on his Alchemy. With various miraculous elixirs, not only could it aid his own cultivation, but it could also transform Tongtong’s body. His little princess, from the very start, should stand on a starting line that others could only look up to and never reach.

Thinking this, Xu Fan waited for Tongtong to finish eating, quickly cleaned up the kitchen and dining room, and then arranged for Ben Ben to accompany Tongtong watching TV in the living room, while he stepped out of the villa alone.

Xu Fan was going to buy some medicinal herbs. The amount needed for alchemy was substantial; Lu Chennong’s purchase was a case in point—just refining a single Golden Spirit Detoxification Pill had cost nearly twenty million.

Xu Fan couldn’t exactly take a little herb hoe and go herb gathering in the deep mountains and old forests now, so he could only go out to find a pharmacy and inquire if he could buy what he needed.

If he could acquire the herbs, his alchemy plan could be immediately put into action.
