Chapter 476: Alas, My Abilities Don't Allow It
Fang Ling sat in her seat, fuming and sulking. Chen Fan exchanged a few simple words with Tong Yao.
As it was their first meeting, Chen Fan didn't show excessive enthusiasm or try to curry favor, to avoid revealing anything to her.
After chatting, they each returned to their shooting lanes and began practicing.
Tong Yao had definitely practiced this before, her shooting skills were undeniable.
However, she secretly observed Chen Fan and was somewhat shocked.
Yesterday, this guy had clearly been a novice rookie, but today he was already shooting with skill, hitting at least two-thirds of his targets.
What kind of talent was this?
Could this be what Brother Qing called a natural shooting instinct?
Chen Fan knew Tong Yao was secretly observing him, but he didn't care.
Instead, under Feng Pojun's guidance, he was completely immersed in his own practice rhythm. Gradually, Chen Fan began to master the knack of shooting, and his accuracy improved.
Fang Ling couldn't sit still on the side.
She angrily rushed in front of Chen Fan and began deliberately talking and singing loudly to disrupt his rhythm. Unfortunately, it had little effect, Chen Fan wasn't bothered at all.
Tong Yao finished a round and didn't continue. She returned to the rest area and sat down, smiling as she watched the scene across from her.
Fang Ling stood beside Chen Fan, singing at the top of her lungs, while Chen Fan focused intently, completely ignoring her.
These two... were really interesting.
Finally, Chen Fan finished another round and turned his head to look over helplessly.
"Stop singing. If you keep this up, you'll scare away all the members of this shooting range."
Fang Ling angrily put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest.
"Are you saying my singing is awful?"
Chen Fan asked with a smile, "You've been singing for so long, your throat must be dry? Why don't I treat you both to a meal? The chef at our club's cafeteria is quite skilled."
Fang Ling became even more displeased.
"We haven't seen each other for so long, and you're just inviting me to eat at the cafeteria?"
Chen Fan helplessly said, "Sister, this is a high-end club. The chef in our cafeteria is no worse than restaurants outside."
"Who are you calling sister?"
Feng Pojun had remained silent the whole time, expressionlessly observing Fang Ling.
It was the first time he had seen his boss at a loss in front of a girl.
Moreover, this girl's personality was far too domineering and arrogant.
Compared to his boss's official girlfriend Su Ruochu, she fell short by more than just a little.
Feng Pojun had met Su Ruochu, she was a quiet, elegant, and gentle girl.
In his opinion, Fang Ling didn't even understand what type of girl his boss liked.
She was destined to lose.
"Are you eating or not? If not, I'm going by myself."
Seeing Chen Fan really about to leave, Fang Ling became even angrier.
"Why not? It's free food after all."
She then turned and called out to Tong Yao, "Let's go. Someone's treating us to a meal."
Tong Yao shook her head, "I'll pass."
But Fang Ling ran over and grabbed her, "We've spent money here. Why not go eat and get our money's worth? We must eat back every penny."
Tong Yao was a bit helpless.
It was the first time she had seen Fang Ling behave this way in front of a guy.
This girl, could she have really fallen for him?
In the cafeteria, Fang Ling didn't hold back at all. As soon as she sat down, she called the waiter, took the menu, and deliberately ordered the most expensive dishes, seemingly determined to give Chen Fan a hefty bill.
Chen Fan sat across from her, maintaining a constant smile, apparently not minding.
When Fang Ling went to get drinks, Tong Yao looked at Chen Fan and spoke up for the first time.
"I'm curious, how did you two meet?"
Chen Fan smiled, "Well... that's a long story, like a child without a mother."
"It was during the summer break of our senior year in high school. She was fixing a computer in her hometown..."
After hearing Chen Fan's explanation, Tong Yao's eyes widened, losing her cool demeanor for the first time.
"That actually happened?"
Chen Fan nodded, "I'm not lying at all."
"In a way, the payment Fang Ling gave me then was the first capital for my business... She could be considered a benefactor on my entrepreneurial path."
"So I'm quite grateful to her and willing to be her friend."
Tong Yao suddenly smiled. "Too bad she doesn't want to just be an ordinary friend."
Chen Fan smiled too.
"I have a girlfriend."
Tong Yao looked at Chen Fan and explained seriously, "Then you definitely don't know her as well as I do. Fang Ling has had one characteristic since childhood: she's extremely stubborn and persistent. She won't give up until she achieves her goal."
Chen Fan just shrugged, seemingly unconcerned.
"No one can ruin the relationship between me and my girlfriend."
Tong Yao looked at Chen Fan.
"Now I'm really curious about what kind of girl your girlfriend is."
Chen Fan's eyes instantly became gentle and happy.
"Compared to you two, she might just be considered a girl from an ordinary family background."
Tong Yao probed, "Is she stunningly beautiful? Even prettier than Fang Ling?"
Chen Fan shook his head, smilingly boasting, "There's no comparison. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. In my eyes, she's more beautiful than Xi Shi."
Tong Yao pursed her lips, "Looking at how you're bragging, you don't seem like a big boss at all."
Chen Fan: "I'm not a big boss at all. I haven't even graduated from university yet."
Tong Yao: "But now I'm even more curious about this girlfriend of yours."
Chen Fan smiled, "If there's a chance, I'll introduce you two. Maybe you could become friends."
At this moment, Fang Ling came back with two ice cream cones, handing one to Tong Yao.
"These are for us two. None for him. Let him drool."
"What were you two talking about just now?"
Tong Yao smiled, "Nothing much, just getting to know each other a bit."
Fang Ling glanced at Chen Fan, "Not bad, you can chat so well with her on your first meeting."
"There aren't many guys who can catch our Miss Tong's eye."
Chen Fan remained calm.
"Can't help it, I'm just such an excellent and eye-catching man. I want to keep a low profile, but alas, my abilities don't allow it."
"Pff..."
With one sentence, he successfully made both girls laugh.
Fang Ling laughed so hard she almost dropped her ice cream on the table.
"I've never seen someone so narcissistic."
Chen Fan curiously asked, "You said you're studying abroad. Are you back for a yearly vacation or are you not going back?"
Fang Ling immediately grinned at Chen Fan.
"Why? Are you concerned about me?"
"Is it because you can't see me often and miss me? Don't want me to go abroad?"
Here we go again.
Chen Fan simply shut up and stopped talking.
Tong Yao on the side couldn't bear it anymore and volunteered an explanation.
"She wants to come back, but her family doesn't agree. This time she's just back for a yearly vacation, she'll have to leave again in a few days."
Fang Ling smiled at Chen Fan.
"Are you disappointed? Don't worry, we can keep in touch by phone in the future."
"If you really want to see me, just give me a call, and I can fly back anytime."
Chen Fan: "..."
Sister, please spare me!
But Fang Ling was very satisfied with Chen Fan's embarrassed reaction.
She found that teasing Chen Fan was actually quite fun.
Tong Yao couldn't help but shake her head with a smile, seemingly finding this scene very amusing.
