Chapter 1267: Where Is the Celestial Clan?
Xu Ruolan heard Ning Fan's words, and her first reaction was that Ning Fan was joking with her. She didn't believe that with Ning Fan's protection, Xu Xiaoqing could still be taken away by someone else.
Others might not know Ning Fan's strength, but she was very aware of how powerful Ning Fan was. Ordinary ruffians couldn't possibly be Ning Fan's match; who else could take Xu Xiaoqing away?
Ning Fan said with a bitter smile, "It's true, honey."
Then, Ning Fan explained everything that happened tonight to Xu Ruolan.
"That Zhou Wei is really despicable!" After hearing Ning Fan's explanation, Xu Ruolan finally reacted. Her delicate eyebrows were knitted tightly, and a faint chill was emanating around her.
"Ning Fan, where is Xiaoqing now?" Xu Ruolan looked at Ning Fan and asked worriedly, "Is Xiaoqing in danger?"
Ning Fan shook his head and said, "I don't know exactly where Xiaoqing is, but she shouldn't be in danger. The mysterious man in the black robe called Xiaoqing 'Miss,' which proves that Xiaoqing's identity is unusual. He likely won't harm Xiaoqing."
Xu Ruolan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As long as Xiaoqing is not in danger, it's fine."
"Don't worry, I've already sent people to search for Xiaoqing's whereabouts," Ning Fan said, gazing at Xu Ruolan with determination. "As soon as I know where Xiaoqing is, I'll bring her back immediately!"
"Okay." Xu Ruolan nodded, trusting Ning Fan's ability.
"Ning Fan, has Xiaoqing been taken away by someone?" Just as Ning Fan and Xu Ruolan were talking, Xu Chengyuan's voice suddenly came from beside them.
Ning Fan heard Xu Chengyuan's voice and was instantly shocked. He quickly looked over and saw Xu Chengyuan standing by, his face full of seriousness.
"Yes, it's all my fault for not protecting Xiaoqing..." Ning Fan nodded and said, "As soon as I have news of Xiaoqing, I'll find her immediately!"
Xu Chengyuan nodded and then asked, "You said the man in the black robe called Xiaoqing 'Miss,' didn't he?"
"Yes." Ning Fan nodded and asked puzzled, "Do you have any news, sir?"
Xu Chengyuan nodded and said, "Ning Fan, have you heard of the Celestial Clan?"
"Celestial Clan?" Ning Fan shook his head at the unfamiliar term and said, "I haven't heard of it. What's up, Uncle Xu?"
"The people who kidnapped Xiaoqing are most likely from this Celestial Clan." Xu Chengyuan said calmly.
"What?!" Ning Fan and Xu Ruolan were shocked upon hearing Xu Chengyuan's words. They didn't know how Xu Chengyuan knew these things.
"Some things can't be revealed conveniently now, but the possibility of the Celestial Clan is high. You can investigate it," Xu Chengyuan said, looking at Ning Fan.
"Okay." Ning Fan nodded, feeling more confident with accurate information this time, at least not as clueless as before.
Without some accurate clues, finding information about Xu Xiaoqing nationwide would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
But now, with the clues provided by Xu Chengyuan, it's like pointing in a direction.
"Dad, will Xiaoqing be in danger now?" Xu Ruolan was still very worried about Xu Xiaoqing's safety, as they grew up together as sisters.
Xu Chengyuan smiled and said, "Rest assured, as long as the Celestial Clan has taken Xiaoqing, there won't be any danger."
Following Xu Chengyuan's answer, Xu Ruolan relaxed and softly said, "That's good, that's good!"
"Okay, you two should get some rest." Xu Chengyuan said and then turned to walk towards his room.
Ning Fan looked at Xu Ruolan and said, "Honey, you go to sleep; I'll call Feifei."
With the direction given by Xu Chengyuan, Ning Fan also felt much more relieved. He planned to have Ouyang Feifei instruct the Shadow Team to focus on investigating news of the Celestial Clan.
"Hmph, always calling your little sister Feifei!" Xu Ruolan's jealousy arose immediately upon hearing Ning Fan was going to call Ouyang Feifei.
"Ahem, I need to discuss business with her!" Ning Fan cleared his throat and said, "Don't worry, honey!"
"Hmph, I don't care who you're calling!" Xu Ruolan turned and walked towards her room, ignoring Ning Fan.
Ning Fan shook his head helplessly and then took out his phone to dial Ouyang Feifei's number.
"Hey, Feifei, have the Shadow Team focus on investigating a clan called the Celestial Clan." Ning Fan said gravely, "Xu Xiaoqing was very likely kidnapped by people from the Celestial Clan!"
"Okay, I understand." Ouyang Feifei responded, "I'll instruct them now."
"Mm." Ning Fan nodded with satisfaction and hung up the phone.
Ning Fan was quite satisfied with Ouyang Feifei's work efficiency. Now he just had to wait for the news sent by the Shadow Team.
After finishing the call, Ning Fan walked towards Xu Ruolan's room, but when he reached the door, he sadly found that Xu Ruolan had already locked the room door!
In resignation, Ning Fan returned to his room to sleep.
The next morning, after getting up, Ning Fan went to the kitchen where he immediately saw a note and breakfast Xu Ruolan left for him.
Ning Fan felt warmth in his heart; Xu Ruolan still cared about him a lot.
After finishing breakfast, Ning Fan called Xu Ruolan to take a leave from work; he planned to go to the Zhou Family in Jiangcheng today, and naturally wouldn't have time to go to work.
Originally, Xu Ruolan was puzzled about why Ning Fan would go to the Zhou Family in Jiangcheng, but after listening to Ning Fan's explanation, she quickly agreed.
Xu Ruolan held no goodwill towards the Zhou Family. After all, if it weren't for them, how could Xu Xiaoqing have been kidnapped by that mysterious man in the black robe?
Having Xu Ruolan's permission, Ning Fan called Ouyang Feifei.
"Feifei, let's head out to the Zhou Family in Jiangcheng." Ning Fan said to Ouyang Feifei.
"Do you need to call a few people to join us?" Ouyang Feifei asked in confusion.
"No need." Ning Fan's eyes squinted, and his gaze flashed with a cold glimmer. "To deal with the Zhou Family, I'm enough by myself; I don't need so many people to help!"
Hearing Ning Fan say this, Ouyang Feifei no longer insisted. She directly drove to the gate of the Xu Family, picked up Ning Fan, and drove straight to the Zhou Family in Jiangcheng.
Zhou Wei remained passed out in the back seat, but he was still sleeping and wouldn't wake up for at least seven or eight hours.
"Feifei, introduce the intelligence on the Zhou Family to me." Ning Fan leaned on the passenger seat and said to Ouyang Feifei.
