Get the perfect music system at the start

Xu Fan had no further comment upon hearing this.

Actually, the chances of him being able to work at the store are slim. Today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, and people in the real estate industry shouldn't be back at work yet. It seems he has no other options right now. He keeps dialing the phone repeatedly, but he can't get through.

He drove towards Xiao Pu's house, but happened to pass by Xiao Pu's shop and instinctively drove past it.

===Chapter 539 What are you knocking for?===

"On the surface, she seemed like such a good girl, but who would have thought that she was such a despicable person?"

"Actually, I discovered a long time ago that she was a scheming bitch. Some things seem simple, but who knows how they came about? That house is worth tens of millions, and it belongs to the famous Xu Fan. Only she has that kind of luck."

"It was just luck. The most important thing is that I think she took the initiative to throw herself at him in order to gain some attention. It's really shameful."

"She seems like a very gentle girl usually, but who would have thought she could be so despicable? Manager, I think we should fire her immediately. Look, she didn't even come to work today."

"Yes, manager, I also suggest firing her directly. This kind of woman is two-faced; she's completely..."

Inside Xiao Pu's shop, a dozen or so people were discussing something, chattering away incessantly.

Xu Fan happened to walk in and stood there, listening clearly. Perhaps because she saw Xu Fan, the woman stopped speaking, her eyes darting around. She didn't recognize Xu Fan, who was wearing a mask and sunglasses, and simply walked up to him and said indifferently, "Hello, are you looking for a room?"

Xu Fan was furious, his anger blazing like a volcano. He wanted to explode, to slap the other woman across the face, but he held back. He looked at the woman and said in a slightly cold tone, "I'm here to find someone."

The female agent paused for a moment, but without thinking much, she called out, "Manager, someone is looking for you."

A man walked out and, seeing Xu Fan wearing sunglasses and a mask, asked with some curiosity, "Are you looking for me?"

Xu Fan said, "I'm looking for Pu Siqi?"

"Her!"

The store manager couldn't help but chuckle, then said, "She didn't come to work at all today; she skipped work."

After saying that, he froze.

He couldn't see clearly whether Xu Fan's eyes behind his sunglasses were glaring at him, but he could sense something different.

The crucial question is, at this very moment, who will come looking for Pu Siqi?

Pu Siqi had met most of his customers as the store manager, but there was one group of customers he had never met before: Xu Fan.

At this moment, this young man appeared here, wearing sunglasses and a mask. Looking at his physique, his expression was one of disbelief and disbelief.

Just then, Xu Fan coldly said, "If anything happens to her, you..."

Xu Fan didn't finish speaking, then turned and drove towards Xiao Pu's rented apartment.

The shop was extremely quiet.

Watching Xu Fan's departing figure, the store manager felt a cold sweat break out on his back.

Someone nearby said angrily, "If something happens to her, what about us? We're just too afraid to speak up. Young people just love to show off."

Someone nearby said, "It's like he's asking us to die with him. This guy is really boring. I feel like he's Xiao Pu's creditor. Otherwise, why would he come to her door when she's not at work today? It's obvious that she owes money and knows someone is coming to collect today, so she didn't come."

Another person added, "That should be it. Look at them, wearing sunglasses and a mask. They're obviously afraid of being recognized. Manager, just listen to us and fire them."

The store manager, his face ashen, looked at the group and said, "He is Xu Fan."

"How could that be? How could he be Xu Fan? Xu Fan?" someone said nonchalantly, but then he suddenly froze, instinctively looking at the shop manager and asking in confusion, "Who are you saying he is?"

The store manager repeated, "He is Xu Fan."

"Xu Fan? How could that be? Shouldn't Xu Fan be trying his best to sever all ties right now? Why would he come looking for him?"

"No way, is there really something between them? Why would he come? But now that you mention it, they do look somewhat alike. His physique and the protective measures he takes are just like those of a celebrity."

"Oh my god, if he really is Xu Fan, then what I just did, oh my god, I'm doomed."

"To be honest, store manager, I think I should resign voluntarily. Otherwise, I really don't dare to stay here any longer, considering how I treated Pu Siqi before."

Xu Fan was in a bad mood, especially after hearing those words, which hurt him deeply.

To be precise, these were words I didn't want to hear, but I just happened to hear them.

Such things seem to happen frequently in real society, but when they happen around you, it's still quite painful and unbearable.

If Xiao Pu heard these words, how heartbroken she would be.

At this moment, Xu Fan was in a terrible mood, but the key thing was that he just wanted to find Xiao Pu as soon as possible.

Xu Fan drove through the roads and traffic lights of Zhonghai, speeding away.

But for some reason, the more anxious he became, the more red lights appeared, making Xu Fan want to swear.

Time was running out when Fatty called. Xu Fan briefly explained the situation and then rushed to Xiao Pu's house without stopping.

I've been downstairs twice, but I still don't know the exact location.

He parked his car downstairs and frowned as he looked at the six-story building that resembled his own old home. An older man was sitting at the entrance. Xu Fan instinctively walked over and said steadily, "Hello, sir, may I ask if you know Pu Siqi?"

The middle-aged man looked up, took a sip of water, and frowned as he asked Xu Fan, "Who?"

Xu Fan said seriously, "Pu Siqi, Xiao Pu, is she a real estate agent?"

"What are you doing?"

The uncle looked puzzled, but didn't forget to take a sip of herbal tea.

Xu Fan paused for a moment, then continued, "She's a real estate agent, a young woman who sells houses. Do you know where she lives?"

"A young girl, there's only one on the third floor, on the left."

Good heavens, the old man couldn't hear anything clearly, but the young woman could hear everything perfectly. In any case, the old man had given himself a definite answer and quickly went upstairs. When he saw that the door to the room on the third floor was a bit dilapidated, he couldn't help but feel a little sad.

I knocked gently on the door, but it didn't open.

There was no sound coming from inside, which frustrated Xu Fan. He continued to call, but the call still couldn't be connected.

They kept knocking, but still no one came. The knocking even reached the neighbor on the third floor to the right.

A neighbor, dressed in loose clothing, came out, frowning, and said, "What are you knocking for? There's no one here."

Xu Fan was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously asked, "What do you mean there's no one here?"

The neighbor waved his hand and said, "When I went to throw out the trash this morning, I saw the young girl with red eyes, carrying her suitcase and leaving. I haven't heard her come back since. You young people, why do you have to run away from home after a fight?"

Xu Fan was stunned. He wanted to ask a couple more questions, but the neighbor repeated, "Stop knocking, there's really no one here. Go look around elsewhere."

After saying that, he slammed his door shut.

Xu Fan stood there, slightly lost in thought, and left early in the morning with his suitcase.

Xiao Pu, where are you going? Why don't you answer the phone?

===Chapter 540 Let's Fall in Love===

The streets are still brightly decorated and bustling with activity during the Lunar New Year period.

Every household had couplets pasted on their doors, and red lanterns hung along every street.

People came and went, some in a hurry and some at a leisurely pace, but Xu Fan was frantically searching everywhere.

They left with their luggage, which is not good news. Are they going back to their hometown?

Based on her understanding of Xiao Pu, this might be possible, but she also felt it was unrealistic.

Having just returned from his hometown, Xiao Pu shouldn't be considering going home right now. With a furrowed brow, Xu Fan searched around but couldn't find a chance.

Suddenly, as if he had just remembered something, he realized that he had looked for Xiao Pu by the Huangpu River not long ago, on her birthday. Could she be there now?

Regardless of the possibility, Xu Fan drove towards the Huangpu River. The bustling city was filled with cars and traffic lights, making it easy to get stuck in traffic. After finally reaching the Huangpu River, Xu Fan found a parking space, parked, and then sped towards the river.

When Xu Fan returned to the place where they had met before, he didn't feel disoriented. The last time he came here was late at night, but now it was daytime, the fiber optic cable was strong, and there were many people around.

There were far fewer people here last time, but not this time.

Xu Fan spotted Xiao Pu sitting on the steps not far away in the crowd at a glance. At that moment, all her worries finally disappeared, and she hurriedly ran over.

Xu Fan came up behind Xiao Pu, intending to say a few words loudly, but Xiao Pu seemed not to see him and was still staring blankly at the river. Xu Fan slowly walked to the side, not wanting to disturb her, and sat down next to her.

Although the movement was very small, Xiao Pu still noticed it.

She turned around and looked at Xu Fan with a slight surprise, then said in astonishment, "Brother Fan, what brings you here?"

Xu Fan smiled slightly and said, "Don't call me Brother Fan anymore, just call me..."

Xiao Pu still said, "I still think Fan Ge's voice sounds better, so that's fine."

Xu Fan nodded, not objecting, but said, "Are you in a bad mood?"

Xiao Pu glanced at Xu Fan, then looked at the Huangpu River and said, "It seems so."

Xu Fan was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Are you sure it's only a little?"

Hearing this, Xiao Pu finally couldn't help but shake her head and say, "Actually, I'm very sad, really very sad. I don't really care about the news on the internet, because I can just ignore it, but..."

Xu Fan suddenly remembered that he had overheard his colleagues talking in the store earlier, and he was shocked. Then he heard Xiao Pu say, "Can you imagine your close friends saying things to frame you out of jealousy?"

As she spoke, Xiao Pu shook her head again and said, "It shouldn't be a frame-up, but rather a fabricated story."

Xu Fan nodded. Although he had not experienced it himself, he had indeed heard those people's words not long ago, and they were indeed somewhat hurtful.

Xu Fan's nod comforted Xiao Pu, who couldn't help but lower her head.

Xu Fan clearly saw the tears in Xiao Pu's eyes; she lowered her head perhaps just to hide them from him.

Xiao Pu buried her head in her knees and wouldn't lift it up again.

Xu Fan took a deep breath, looked at the Huangpu River in the distance, then turned to look at the passersby, and suddenly said, "Let's fall in love."

The sound was very soft, very soft.

Xiao Pu was stunned. She suddenly raised her head and looked at Xu Fan in disbelief, asking, "What...what did you say?"

Xu Fan was very nervous. He didn't know why he was nervous; it was a kind of nervousness he had never felt before.

He wasn't that nervous even when he participated in The Coming One.

But seeing Xiao Pu's puzzled expression, he still said seriously, "I said, let's fall in love."

Xiao Pu looked at Xu Fan, just stared at him for a long time, and then slowly shook her head.

Xu Fan was stunned. Was it because he hadn't performed well enough, or because his way of expressing his love wasn't sincere enough? He looked at Xiao Pu and asked in confusion, "What did I do wrong?"
