Chapter 2070 - 2059: She Is a Dragon
With a thud, Vivian also struck a "大" pose against the wall."Vivian, you... you're being ridiculous."
Ning Fan's face darkened; rather than worrying about Vivian's safety, he worried about the wall being damaged.
Seeing Ning Fan unmoved, Vivian grunted twice.
Looking at Ning Fan, visibly tense, Xu Xiaoqing, who was previously seething with anger, suddenly began crying, "Brother-in-law, you're bullying me."
"It's my fault. It's all my fault... Please don't cry, ancestor."
With soothing words, Ning Fan finally managed to calm Xu Xiaoqing down.
"Don't leave, I want you to hold me like this."
Looking at the tear-streaked Xu Xiaoqing, Ning Fan picked her up in a princess carry.
Xu Xiaoqing smiled sweetly, then pointed angrily at Vivian, "Who's that little fox spirit?"
Ning Fan awkwardly responded, "What fox spirit? Vivian is just my friend, we're not what you think."
"Then what could it be? You were hugging just now. If I hadn't arrived, you would have... would have..."
Ultimately, Xu Xiaoqing, being a young girl, found it embarrassing to voice certain words.
"Would have what? I said it's just a misunderstanding."
Ning Fan didn't feel guilty when saying this; after all, it truly was a misunderstanding.
"I don't care! There's already a fox spirit at home, and you've brought another one back. Wait till my sister deals with you."
"I'll explain to your sister... Hang on!"
Ning Fan's expression changed, asking puzzledly, "You mentioned there's another fox spirit at home? What do you mean?"
"Humph! What else could it mean?"
Xu Xiaoqing turned her head, displeased, "Your old flame outside has found her way in."
Ning Fan exclaimed in shock, "How is that possible!"
"Why would I lie to you? That little fox spirit is living in our home."
"That's impossible! Given their personalities, even if they knew, they wouldn't come looking."
Thinking of the familiar faces in his mind, Ning Fan couldn't find an answer, so he asked awkwardly, "Could it be a mistake?"
"They called her out by name. How could it be wrong?"
Skeptically, Xu Xiaoqing asked, "Brother-in-law, do you have more than one woman outside?"
Ning Fan's heart skipped a beat, responding with a serious face, "What are you thinking? Don't jump to conclusions before figuring things out."
"Alright!"
Xu Xiaoqing looked at Vivian, angrily inquiring, "Then who is this woman?"
"This..."
"Humph! Feeling guilty, aren't you! Can't say anything, can you!"
Ning Fan chuckled awkwardly, "I'm considering whether to tell you the truth."
"What truth could there be?"
Xu Xiaoqing assumed a "don't fool me" stance, declaring, "She's your bit on the side."
Ning Fan cast a peculiar glance at Xu Xiaoqing, muttering to himself,
"Simpleton. You are the first side girl."
"Forget it. The situation's escalated, might as well tell the truth. Avoid further complications."
Realizing this, Ning Fan solemnly said, "Haven't you noticed anything amiss?"
"Stop trying to change the subject..."
Noticing Ning Fan's look, Xu Xiaoqing couldn't continue speaking, and began inspecting the room's chaos.
It was as if a typhoon had ravaged it; the room was a mess.
Ning Fan sighed, "She's not ordinary."
"Of course I know she's not ordinary."
Xu Xiaoqing replied defiantly, "So what? She's just a foreign cultivator."
"I mean, Vivian isn't human."
"Not human?"
Xu Xiaoqing paused, then exclaimed, "Brother-in-law, I'm amazed at how you'd find such an outrageous excuse. She's not human, is she a ghost?"
"Mind you, there's indeed a ghost in our home."
Ning Fan muttered before saying, "Vivian is a dragon, a Western dragon."
Xu Xiaoqing burst into laughter, "Brother-in-law, you're too funny."
"I'm serious."
Seeing Ning Fan's serious demeanor, Xu Xiaoqing's laughter abruptly stopped; she reached for Ning Fan's forehead, hesitantly asking, "Brother-in-law, are you alright?"
Ning Fan sighed, "I'm perfectly fine. My mind isn't muddled."
"Then why are you speaking nonsense?"
Xu Xiaoqing suspiciously looked at Vivian, then hurriedly said, "Brother-in-law, I'm not mad at you anymore. Really, come back."
Clearly, this was a big living person, but Ning Fan insisted she was a dragon. Xu Xiaoqing was honestly wondering if her tantrum caused him to become delusional.
"I'm not lying to you. Vivian is really from the Dragon Clan of the West."
As he spoke, Ning Fan recounted his experience encountering Vivian.
"Brother-in-law, you..."
Xu Xiaoqing hurriedly explained, "Brother-in-law, it's not that I don't believe you. It's just that this is so ridiculous, anyone wouldn't believe it. But I'm willing to believe, yet..."
"Enough. I expected this."
Ning Fan helplessly shook his head, "Vivian, change to your true form."
"I don't want to..."
While refusing, Vivian suddenly thought of something, decisively saying, "Okay."
Recalling Vivian's colossal form, Ning Fan quickly said, "Wait a moment. Let's go somewhere else. This room is too small."
Xu Xiaoqing then asked in surprise, "Brother-in-law, are you serious?"
"Of course. If I don't prove it, who knows what kind of story you'll spin."
"I wouldn't. I'm always on the same side as you."
Xu Xiaoqing coquettishly nudged her head, "I didn't say I didn't believe, just can't accept it all at once."
"You're just short of having 'disbelief' stamped on your face."
Ning Fan said, "You'll soon understand about Vivian. First, tell me, why are you here?"
When Xu Xiaoqing appeared, Ning Fan was quite startled; he never expected his unreliable little sister-in-law to show up suddenly.
"I came here with my sister for an inspection..."
"What! You say Ruolan is also here."
Xu Xiaoqing teased, "Brother-in-law, why are you flustered? Don't worry, I won't tell the elder sister."
"Thanks for that."
Ning Fan wasn't hiding anything; he was planning to disclose Vivian's identity openly, and therefore wouldn't hide it from Xu Ruolan.
The real concern was the fox spirit Xu Xiaoqing mentioned.
But this question couldn't be asked outright; if he let it slip, it would be a big problem.
Xu Xiaoqing stuck out her tongue, "Speak of Cao Cao and he appears."
Just after explaining her hotel visit, Xu Xiaoqing's phone rang.
Ning Fan contemplated, "Don't mention running into me."
"Don't worry."
Seeing Xu Xiaoqing's expression saying "I got it," Ning Fan felt his mouth twitch, it's not guilt; it's just not the right time to meet Xu Ruolan.
"Sis, I really have something to do. Anything important, let's talk at home."
