Chapter 471: Ding Ran's Request

it.But Chen Yuer never expected that the gifted son-in-law of the Lingnan Chen family, would secretly fall in love with Shen Yun after only meeting her once.In the chat logs, Shen Yun also once explic...In the midst of family turmoil, if it weren't for Fatty and his Wolf Tooth members intervening, the Ding family would likely have descended into fratricide, fracturing into pieces. In that scenario, the Ding family would have suffered a devastating blow, making recovery extremely difficult. However, Fatty resolved the situation without bloodshed.

While Ye Fan displayed immense power the day before yesterday, Ding Ran also harbored some apprehension towards him. After all, people from the Ding family were involved that day as well. If Ye Fan became displeased and took action against the Ding family, it would be something they couldn't withstand right now.

In this political storm, some of the umbrellas protecting the Ding family have also been implicated, and their power has been greatly weakened.

Moreover, Ye Fan's identity is now semi-public. Those with a little bit of information already know that Ye Fan is the fourth generation descendant of the Ye family. Under these circumstances, unless someone has gone mad, they wouldn't openly oppose him.

"Well, I accept your apology." Ye Fan thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "But what are you going to do to show your gratitude Is just one sentence enough"

"Of course not." Ding Ran chuckled from the other end, then said, "If it's convenient, I'd like to invite you to my mansion for a chat."

"What time is it" Ye Fan asked.

It is rumored that Ding Ran's beauty is no less than that of the twin sisters by the sea, but she rarely appears in social circles and not many people know her. Besides, she secretly manages the Ding family behind the scenes, her abilities are extraordinary. She can make her brother, Ding Lei, become the head of the family smoothly within the complex web of interests within the Ding family, and lead the Ding family to maintain a rapid development. It is feared that Ding Ran's abilities might even surpass Si Kong Yanran.

This person, Ye Fan, he not only wants to see him with his own eyes, but even wants to...

"I heard that there's a birthday party for Miss Kong from your company tomorrow. So... how about the day after tomorrow afternoon" Ding Ran didn't expect Ye Fan to agree so readily. After pondering for a moment, she said.

"The day after tomorrow afternoon..." After thinking for a moment, Ye Fan realized he had nothing scheduled for the day after tomorrow, so he agreed.

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Ding Ran's voice came again.

"Mr. Ye, is there anything else I can ask of you" Ding Ran spoke up.

"Oh, you say so," Ye Fan didn't immediately agree, wanting to hear what she had to say first.

“Tomorrow is Miss Sikong’s birthday, but I wasn't invited,” Ding Ran said here, pausing for a moment, and let out a slight sigh before continuing, “I’ve always wanted to see Miss Sikong’s charm. It’s just that we both live in Linhai, and over the years, we haven’t met face to face. So I was wondering… could I attend your aunt’s birthday party tomorrow”

Has the Sikong family not received an invitation

Ye Fan furrowed his brow in confusion.

This gathering, on one hand, is a birthday celebration, but more importantly, it's a display of the Si Kong family's power. As the original leading family, the Ding family should have received an invitation.

But then she thought, Ding Ran has always been helping her brother behind the scenes and rarely appears in public. It's probably that the Si Kong family invited Ding Lei but not Ding Ran.

"Thinking about this, Ye Fan said in a low voice, "Ms. Ding, would you mind if I made a call to my aunt"

"Then I'd be too grateful." Ding Ran smiled, her voice filled with warmth and playfulness. "I hope to see you tomorrow. I heard you're a handsome guy..."

Hearing Ding Ran's words, Ye Fan had a strange smile on his face, but he quickly said, "Aren't you afraid of falling in love with me"

"Haha... The man who could make Ding Ran fall in love with me probably hasn't been born yet." Ding Ran laughed and immediately hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan held his phone and twirled it in his hand. Then he pulled out his aunt's contact information.

"Xiao Fan, is something the matter" A busy voice came from the other end of the phone, it was Si Kong Yanran.

"Aunt, is tomorrow's gathering not inviting anyone from the Ding family"

"Oh, only Ding Lei was invited," Si Kong Yiran said with a hint of confusion. "Why did you suddenly ask this question"

However, before Ye Fan could speak, Si Kong Yanan immediately smiled and asked, “You boy, do you want to see that woman from the Ding family”

"No, no. Tomorrow you'll be the only princess in the whole place, and I'll only have eyes for you." Ye Fan quickly explained.

"You little rascal, you only know how to make your aunt happy," Si Kong Yanran laughed, her flowers swaying. But she quickly asked, "Say, what are you asking this for"

"Oh, Ding Ran just called me, she said you didn't invite her, but she also wants to come." Ye Fan then recounted what Ding Ran had said on the phone.

After a moment's contemplation, Si Kong Yanran...

"Originally, we weren't planning on inviting the Ding family." After a moment, Si Kong Yanran's voice rang out: "This turmoil has had a serious impact on them. And tomorrow, some important figures from Linhai City will be attending. If members of the Ding family were present, they would likely find it unbearable to face everyone."

"Hearing you say that, Ding Ran's temperament seems quite high. I'm actually quite curious to meet her." Ye Fan's mind flashed with all his previous understanding of Ding Ran. It seemed that in his original perception, Ding Ran was a masterful schemer who hid behind the scenes.

Now it seems, without a very high level of emotional intelligence, it would be difficult to accept such a big difference. If not for the family rule that women cannot take the position of head of the household in the Ding family, perhaps she would be the current head of the household.

"Xiao Fan, I'll send her an invitation when I turn back." Ding Ran called Ye Fan, which also surprised Si Kong Yanran. However, she immediately understood Ding Ran's meaning and said in a deep voice.

Also, little aunt chatted for a while about the gathering again. Because there is a specialized team from the Si Kong family responsible for it, it's basically finished. The people who were invited also received notification a long time ago.

Country Love Ambiguity

After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan was looking forward to tomorrow's birthday party.

On a resort island just outside the suburbs of Linhai City, Lao Mo sent the attendees of the meeting ashore. Watching as they all boarded the boat, Lao Mo, accompanied by several bodyguards, returned to the hotel on the island.

This time, however, he did not open the middle door to enter the space beneath the island. Instead, he went around the middle barrier and after passing a spacious passage, came to a secluded place at the back of the small island. This area belonged to the center of the island, forming another elegant water islet. The two islands were connected to each other, with lush trees on the islet and two rows of bamboo houses built artificially.

It's very difficult to get into this teahouse unless you go through the designated channels.

And on the connecting channel between the two islands, stood six bodyguards in black suits, two of whom were black-skinned foreigners. Each face radiated a fierce aura.

Seeing Mo Lao walking over, the six people immediately split into two rows and respectfully said, "Hello, Mo Lao."

Mr. Mo nodded, then had his two bodyguards wait outside while he went in alone... and received a grand welcome.Accompanied by Emperor Duan Shu himself, everyone entered the main hall.As the junior, Yue Qingke definitely had to pay his respects to the elders of the Duan family firs...
