Urban Most Awesome Dad

Chapter 361: Chapter 361: Yifan Company_1

Xu Fan laughed heartily as he lifted Tongtong up high, saying with a smile, “Daddy has missed Tongtong so much.”

“Hehe…” Tongtong laughed nonstop, happy as a lark.

“Please, have a seat.” Xu Yixue watched the father and daughter, feeling an inexplicable warmth.

“All right.” Xu Fan made himself at home.

As the two sat down on the couch, Xu Yixue said, “Yue Qingxuan signed the contract today. She has a very solid foundation, and I have high hopes for her. By the way, how is your business coming along?”

Xu Fan said, “The most significant challenge has been solved. I’ve recruited a batch of retired Langya special forces soldiers, met with them, and their strength is quite impressive. Now, I’ve arranged for them to train at Mount Longshou for a month. As for the company’s site selection and some procedures, I’ll handle them in the next couple of days. How about you, is the company doing well now?”

“The situation at the company has stabilized.”

Xu Yixue revealed a sweet smile, confidently saying, “Shi Yu’s press reception was quite successful, resulting in a considerable rise in the company’s stock price by the close of the afternoon market.”

Their conversation sounded very ordinary, yet they both cared deeply for each other.

However, Tongtong was not happy. She pounded Xu Fan’s hand with her little fists, saying angrily, “Humph, Daddy, don’t you like Tongtong anymore? You ignore Tongtong as soon as you come back.”

Having said that, she turned her little head, crouched on the ground, and started drawing circles with her arms.

“Tongtong, Daddy knows he was wrong. Daddy apologizes and promises not to wander off again and to focus on playing with Princess Tongtong.” Xu Fan quickly tried to appease her.

“Okay, since Daddy’s attitude in admitting his mistake is very good, Tongtong forgives Daddy.” Tongtong’s face immediately lit up with joy.

“Mwah mwah.” Xu Fan laughed and kissed Tongtong twice.

“Hehe.” Tongtong was extremely happy and stood on the couch to kiss Xu Fan, “Tongtong is so happy, she also wants to give Daddy a kiss.”

“All right…” Xu Fan laughed and turned his cheek toward her.

Xu Yixue also smiled happily.

…

At the same time.

A black Porsche stopped at the entrance of Kowloon New City residential complex.

The man in the driver’s seat wore a low-brimmed cap, with his hands resting on the steering wheel, absent-mindedly tapping his fingers.

His gaze was sinister as he looked at the scene inside the complex, and he took out his cellphone to make a call.

As soon as the other party picked up, the man’s tone was extremely respectful, “Red-robed Sir!”

“Hailong, why are you calling me at this time, is there something important? Could it be that there’s progress on the matter of Ghost Life Twelve?” The Red-robed Sir’s voice was very cold.

The man in the cap was, in fact, Hailong, the protector of the Moro Sect.

After failing to secure the Blood Bodhi some time ago, the Red-robed Sir on the phone had kept him in Zhonghai City to investigate the disappearance of Ghost Life Twelve.

Hailong hurriedly responded, “To report to the Red-robed Sir, I have been investigating and gathering evidence, tracing clues, and making various conjectures these days…”

“I don’t want to hear excuses,” the Red-robed interjected. “I only want results.”

“Yes, Sir.” Hailong didn’t dare to elaborate further, quickly responding, “What I’ve found is that Ghost Life Twelve was recruited by a building materials businessman named Song Qiang, and then the two of them died instantly due to a motorboat explosion at a warehouse on the riverfront at Xiangshui Bay Wharf.”

“You’re saying that Ghost Life Twelve is dead?” The Red-robed’s voice suddenly deepened.

“Yes.” Hailong took a deep breath and asserted.

The man in the red robe fell silent for a while before saying, “Is there anything else?”

Hailong felt cold sweat on his forehead and said, “Last night, I was staking out the place where Ghost Life Number Twelve died and discovered something else…”

Then, Hailong recounted how he had seen Xu Fan save Chen Shiyu and added, “The aura of that person is very similar to the residual aura near the site of Ghost Life Number Twelve’s death, which indicates that this person had been there before and had taken action. I think it’s more than just a coincidence, this person is very likely to be directly related to the death of Ghost Life Number Twelve.”

The man in the red robe said coldly, “Why are you telling me all this? Just capture that person and bring him back. Once he’s here, he will have to spill everything he knows.”

“I…” Hailong struggled to find the words.

The man in the red robe said impatiently, “From your demeanor, it seems you are reluctant to make a move?”

“How could I dare,” Hailong replied. “I am more than willing to serve the great red-robed lord, it’s just that…”

Hailong couldn’t hesitate any longer and explained, “The man’s name is Xu Fan. He appears very young, but he has already reached the level of a Martial Arts Grandmaster; I am no match for him.”

“Impossible, so young and already a Martial Arts Grandmaster?” The man in the red robe was taken aback, then immediately inquired, “How is your investigation on his identity? He must be quite the figure.”

“You’re right, my lord,” Hailong took a deep breath and spoke solemnly, “Xu Fan is no ordinary person. I followed him closely and finally uncovered his identity. He is none other than the abandoned son expelled from one of Yan Country’s four major families, the Xu Family, three years ago.”

“I remember now…” The man in the red robe hesitated a moment and said, “So it’s that kid. Xu Tianlong is quite the schemer, dressing his own son as a prodigal all along when in actuality he had been nurturing him to be an expert.”

“Indeed, it was a deep cover. But what does it matter? He’s still…” Hailong didn’t think further.

“Shut your mouth!” The man in the red robe suddenly warned, “There are some things that can be said, and some things that cannot. Do you understand?”

“Yes, I will certainly remember this,” Hailong immediately responded.

Hailong suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, terrified by his own slip of the tongue.

This was a top-secret matter within the Moro Sect, and no one was allowed to speak of it. Had the lord not interrupted him, he might have faced execution and would never see the sunrise again.

“Your task now is to keep an eye on this Xu Fan and report his movements to me at any time,” said the man in the red robe before disconnecting the call.

Seeing the phone exit the call screen, Hailong took several deep breaths, still frightened.

Meanwhile, the man in the red robe looked out into the pitch-black night, a trace of a smile appearing on his lips as he murmured, “A descendant of the Xu Family, huh? Heh heh…”

After pondering for a moment, he took out another phone and sent a text message.

In Kowloon New City, a flash of lightning crossed Xu Fan’s eyes, and he vanished in an instant.

…

The next day.

After the three women finished breakfast, they headed to work together.

Xu Fan, holding Tongtong, left shortly after. Today, his task was to manage the childcare while completing the procedures for his security company.

Normally, registering a company is quite troublesome, with various materials to prepare and processes to follow. But thanks to the Lu family’s advance notice, Xu Fan’s experience felt more like a formality, and the process went very smoothly.

The headquarters for the company was also decided, located near Xinghai Media Company, less than a ten-minute drive away.

The place was originally a gym, but business wasn’t good, so it was transferred to Xu Fan.

Xu Fan took a particular interest in it, as it would become a perfect training facility with just a little remodeling.

The company’s name was also decided: Yifan Security.

Choosing this name had a dual meaning…
