Chapter 469: Talking with Xiao Fang

By evening, I and Zhu Sheng had finished drinking; Zhu Sheng had drunk too much and went to sleep.

Xiao Long escorted his girlfriend Fang Rui back to the hospital for work.

Just then, Xiao Fang returned from outside.

Seeing me, Xiao Fang became very excited,

"Brother Jianqiang, why are you here?"

I smiled and said, "I came specially to see you. I want to tell you the Zhou family is finished; we are all safe now."

Xiao Fang also laughed and said, "Yeah, Zhu Sheng already told me the Zhou family collapsed; we're fine, so I dared to go out for a stroll."

I looked at Xiao Fang,

thinking in my heart, how should I tell her the news of Shangguan Zhuren's death?

I opened my mouth, but I couldn't get the words out.

I feared that once I said it, Xiao Fang couldn't bear it.

"Xiao Fang, what are you planning next?" I asked Xiao Fang.

"I'm still figuring it out; I'll hurry back to Zaocheng to find my father. Brother Jianqiang, what exactly is my father's situation? Are you hiding something from me?" Xiao Fang asked me.

"Um… Xiao Fang, regarding Shangguan Zhuren, I didn't get any news when I last returned to Zaocheng. Let me inquire properly this time when I go back." I could only explain like that.

"Brother Jianqiang, you must be hiding something from me; the Zhou family is finished, Kong Shi has stepped down, why is there still no news about my father?"

I can't figure it out.

Tomorrow, I'll accompany you back to Zaocheng.

Then we'll go together to inquire about my father's news."

"Xiao Fang, listen to me.

Regarding Shangguan Zhuren's matter, I'll inquire slowly when I return.

No rush.

When I was about to come, I saw Wen Han.

Wen Han hopes you can make a trip to Sijiucheng."

"What does Wen Han want me to do in Sijiucheng?" Xiao Fang asked.

"He wants you to become a host at the TV station.

He said you have the potential in this area, just lacking a good platform,

now getting into the TV station as a host is just a word from him.

You should consider this carefully.

If you return to Zaocheng afterward, you can only live an ordinary life.

But if you go to Sijiucheng, it will be different,

you could become a leading host at the TV station.

then you'd be known nationwide."

"Brother Jianqiang, I want to ask you: do you want me to stay in Zaocheng or go to Sijiucheng?" Xiao Fang looked at me and asked.

"Xiao Fang, this depends on your own choice.

Going to Sijiucheng, I also need to tell you clearly— that place is not an ordinary one.

Believe me, you've known Shen Honghong for so long.

She has shared many inside details with you.

Adding to what happened to you in Sijiucheng, a little carelessness could cause trouble.

Of course, if a person wants to become famous, they must go to Sijiucheng to make a name.

Xiao Fang, I still say the same: in Zaocheng, you can only live an ordinary life.

No matter where you are, whatever choice you make,

you are still my dearest person.

I will support you." I said sincerely.

My heart feels conflicted.

I fear that if Xiao Fang returns to Zaocheng and learns of Shangguan Zhuren's death, she won't be able to bear the blow.

I worry even more about the unknown life Xiao Fang would face in Sijiucheng.

Although keeping Xiao Fang by my side, I can guarantee her safety.

But letting her live a mediocre remainder of her life, she wouldn't willingly accept it.

I also understand what Xiao Fang is thinking in her heart.

After Xiao Fang heard me finish speaking,

"Brother Jianqiang, my father isn't by my side; you are my only relative left. Your opinion matters greatly to me. Sometimes I can't make up my mind.

Shen Honghong and I have talked about the days after becoming a famous show host.

I also long for those days.

I have always wanted to be a famous host,

but with my background, getting into that place's TV station is utterly impossible.

Brother Jianqiang, I'm afraid that after I leave you, there will be no one to look after you…."

I hurried to stop Xiao Fang from continuing,

Xiao Fang's words were already clear,

that she wants to go to Sijiucheng.

to go there and make a name for herself.

Xiao Fang, my opinion is that I support you going to Sijiucheng. Now there is such a good opportunity.

Wen Han still has some influence when speaking in Sijiucheng.

As long as you go, I believe there will be an opportunity to enter the TV station.

Your potential is very good; you must seize this opportunity and make yourself a famous host.

Xiao Fang,

I have something to say, and I can only say it to you like this.

As for Wen Han's side, also don't get too close.

Unless he marries you, otherwise don't get too emotionally entangled with him.

Sometimes, I especially admire Shen Honghong.

This woman dares to love and dares to hate,

In some aspects, you should also learn from her.

What I mean by learning is not to imitate her lifestyle, but her character—she doesn't let anything bother her.

Xiao Fang, when you arrive in Sijiucheng,

You must use your brain when doing things, speak less, and learn more.

Wen Han is a very sly person.

He does things ruthlessly.

After you get into the TV station through him, you must find a way to get away from him.

Don't let him control you.

What I say are all sincere words.

At this moment, Xiao Fang is just like my sister to me.

I am earnestly instructing her.

After Xiao Fang heard me finish speaking, she nodded,

"How is Sister Honghong now?"

"Shen Honghong being locked up is also a kind of protection for her, and besides, another powerful man has taken a liking to her.

"You can rest assured; a woman like Shen Honghong will never lack men who love her." I said.

"That's good. Honghong used to worry a lot about herself; if someone caught her, she'd end up in prison for life, which would be worse than letting her die. However, she really likes Zhou Fuhai; in the end, she still wants to see him once. Brother Jianqiang, is their love true love?"

Hearing Xiao Fang ask like that, I just wanted to laugh in my heart,

"True love? There's really no such thing; between men and women it's just that sort of thing."

It's just that Zhou Fuhai's body attracts Shen Honghong.

Their relationship is merely hormonal emotion.

I chuckled,

"Xiao Fang, how should I put this? By the way, there's something I've never figured out: Shi Yong and Shen Honghong have lived together for such a long time.

"Why is Shen Honghong so annoyed with Shi Yong? I asked Shi Yong, but he didn't say anything.

"What exactly happened between them?"

After hearing me ask about this, Xiao Fang's face turned red.

"Brother Jianqiang, I'm not entirely sure either, but after Sister Honghong and Brother Yong lived together, she came to really dislike Brother Yong."

"They two are living together. Are you sure?"

"Certain." Xiao Fang said.

That Shen Honghong is a woman who cannot live without a man,

I believe she will definitely have something happen with Shi Yong.

But Shi Yong's physical condition is nothing in front of Shen Honghong.

I say, Shen Honghong's disdain for Shi Yong has its reasons.

Shi Yong is just all talk.

Hmph. This Shi Yong took a big tumble in front of Shen Honghong.

So, men, don't lightly reveal your shortcomings.

I didn't ask Xiao Fang any more about the messy affairs between Shi Yong and Shen Honghong,

"Xiao Fang, I'm a few years older than you. Since we met, I've always regarded you as a sister.

"After you go to Sijiucheng, if you feel uncomfortable at all, just come back to Zaocheng right away.

"Did you hear that?"

"Zaocheng will always have your home, and your Brother Jianqiang."

Xiao Fang looked at me, and her eye sockets turned red,

"Brother Jianqiang, I understand; as long as I have any discomfort in Sijiucheng, I will come back."

"That's good. From now on, I hope to see my little sister Xiao Fang on TV." After saying that, I reached out my hand and shook Xiao Fang's hand.
