Me and My Cold CEO Wife

Chapter 1707 - 1696: Foodie Friends

But as long as Alice shows a hint of intent, it would be enough for Duke Andrew to do something like this.After all, Alice's status is different, even if the two are truly in love, Andrew is willing to make it work for them.

However, humans don't easily become blood clan, instead of waiting for his daughter to suffer in the future, it's better to cut off this intention early.

"If my daughter encountered something like this, I would also make the same choice."

Thinking of this, Ning Fan didn't have any particular opinion on Andrew's actions.

The only thing he found somewhat improper was that the blood clan's behavior was a bit extreme.

If Ning Fan were to handle it, he would definitely first try to bribe them with money or frighten them with life threats.

As for killing, that would only be a last resort when there was no other way out.

If Ning Fan knew the truth, he would surely be shocked by the blood clan's ruthlessness, and hold disdain for Adams.

"Where did Mr. Adams go on a business trip? I'm still waiting to apologize to him."

"So innocent, just like a blank sheet of paper."

Listening to Alice's mumbling, Ning Fan sighed once again.

If it were a slightly smarter girl, in a situation like this and noticing that the bodyguard isn't around, she would suspect something was wrong.

But Alice was only curious about where Adams went on his business trip, and didn't think anything was amiss.

Ning Fan muttered to himself, "Andrew, can't you be more careful with what you do? Not sending a bodyguard today is like the saying 'there's no 300 taels of silver here'."

In this matter, Ning Fan really misunderstood Andrew.

Andrew, that old fox, knows his daughter very well; with her innocence and kindness, she wouldn't think of these plots and schemes.

As for not sending a bodyguard, it was purely out of kindness, worried that Ning Fan wouldn't be at ease.

Andrew has always remembered that he has a son-in-law capable of anti-magic.

Ning Fan naturally didn't know any of this. He was determined to stay far away from this matter.

"If it gets exposed, and Alice thinks I conspired with Andrew, that would be quite the joke."

Picturing that scene, Ning Fan couldn't help but shiver and shake his head,

"Andrew, this old schemer, is a big trap; I must stay away from him."

At this moment, Ning Fan and Alice's thoughts coincided.

Although she felt a bit disappointed not seeing someone, remembering the friends in Ryan Town, Alice suddenly cheered up.

"Monica likes chocolate, chips..."

"Rachel loves donuts, candy..."

"Linka likes ice cream, jelly..."

...

Hearing all the snack names Alice recited, Ning Fan was amazed by her extraordinary memory.

She remembered exactly who liked what, what flavors they liked, and what they disliked.

What surprised Ning Fan the most was that all of Alice's friends seemed to be foodies, and all the things they were buying were snacks.

Ning Fan asked curiously, "Alice, can't your friends go out?"

Ryan Town is a closed demon domain, but it's an open area; Hunters from the Exorcism Association can come and go freely, not needing to be like this.

"They are staff members of the association and cannot leave Ryan Town."

Saying this, Alice smiled mysteriously, "All my friends are beauties, I guarantee you'll be surprised when you see them."

Ning Fan teased, "In my eyes, you are the real beauty."

"Oh, stop it!"

Alice blushed with pleasure and then warned, "Stay far from my daddy in the future."

"Why?"

If he didn't know Alice's personality, Ning Fan would have been annoyed by the ambiguous remark.

"Lest daddy leads you astray."

Remembering every ridiculous thing Andrew dragged Ning Fan into, Alice felt embarrassed to have such a father and didn't want Ning Fan to become like that.

"Hmm."

Ning Fan nodded and said solemnly, "I think you're quite right, it's really necessary to stay away from Mr. Andrew, he's really too bad."

Alice raised her little fist threateningly, "Stop it. My daddy is not a bad person."

Ning Fan was surprised, "Isn't that what you said?"

"I just said stay away, not that my daddy is a bad person..."

During a discussion about Andrew's character, the two also managed to empty the supermarket's snack section.

Staring at the two trolleys piled high like a small mountain, Ning Fan said reluctantly,

"Alice, maybe we should stop here today and come back tonight."

Not only in front of him, but also in front of Alice, there were two trolleys full of snacks.

For a moment, the scene they created became a spectacle in the supermarket, with many people curiously pointing and whispering.

Fortunately, the two were quite good-looking, making them fit the image of a golden couple.

Otherwise, it would look like a couple of nerdy food enthusiasts on a spree.

Nerdy food enthusiasts don't go out often, but when they do, it's epic.

"Is this enough?"

Alice questioned, in her view, this wasn't nearly enough.

After finally returning to Ryan Town, naturally, she wants to bring enough provisions for her friends.

Hearing Alice's tone, which seemed unsatisfied, Ning Fan quickly advised, "It's the thought that counts when visiting friends. If you keep this up, you'll be on tomorrow's headlines."

Saying this, Ning Fan pointed around them.

Noticing the clerks and shoppers not far away observing them, Alice's face flushed as red as a tomato and she quickly hid under the trolley.

When shopping just now, she hadn't paid any attention to her surroundings.

"Haha..."

Someone led the laughter, and the place erupted into laughter.

Ning Fan knew this was friendly laughter, otherwise he would have knocked out every laughing tooth.

Alice's shy avoidance earlier was irresistibly cute to Ning Fan.

On Alice's already fair and jade-like skin, that hint of blush looked like a delicate rosy bloom, making Ning Fan's heart skip a beat.

Ning Fan addressed the people around, "Alright. I hope everyone won't trouble this adorable young girl."

Westerners typically don't like to watch or gather around, as they see it as impolite behavior.

But those four overflowing carts were just too astonishing, especially Alice's cute actions that led to this scene.

Upon hearing Ning Fan's words, amidst the friendly laughter, the onlookers began to disperse one by one.

Seeing Alice still hiding and not coming out, Ning Fan joked, "How long are you going to hide?"

After quite a while, Alice peeked her head out, her bright blue eyes darting around as she sheepishly asked, "Have they all left?"

Ning Fan covered his mouth, laughing, "They've left. You can shop in peace now."

"No more... it's enough..." Alice shook her head rapidly and said, "You're right, it's the thought that counts."

Saying this, Alice darted away quickly.

And she left Ning Fan alone, looking forlornly at the four shopping carts.

Thankfully, with the help of a store clerk, he avoided further embarrassment.
