201 Exam; Giving Merit to a Hero!
The next day.
After Lin Fan had his breakfast, he left for Jiangbei University.
Usually, at this time, the students on campus would chat and laugh as they walked leisurely.
Today…
All the students were holding books, paper, and pens in their hands. They were in a hurry on the wide road.
This was because today was the day of the students' final exams.
This exam would not determine a promotion or a raise.
However, they would decide whether they would have to take the exam again next year.
In the classroom, the students were separated and sat down. They looked ahead as if they were facing a great enemy.
Lin Fan, on the other hand, was extremely relaxed. In fact, he was even yawning out of boredom.
At this moment, the bell rang.
The old professor slowly walked in with a bag of test papers and distributed them to the students.
This was an advanced math paper. Many students started scratching their ears and cheeks when they saw the questions, not knowing where to start.
Advanced math was like this. Either one knew how to answer the questions, or one could not understand the questions at all.
Obviously, Lin Fan belonged to the former.
In Lin Fan's eyes, the questions in the paper before him were as simple as 1+1=2.
Initially, Lin Fan wanted to finish all the questions.
After all, as a student, he should do what a student should do.
However, Lin Fan did not sleep the entire night, and the questions were too simple…
He had only finished two questions when his eyelids suddenly closed and he fell asleep on the table. He even started snoring.
Seeing this…
The old professor standing on the podium could not help but praise in his heart, 'As expected of a good student who can solve Zhou's Conjecture, the Twin Prime Number Conjecture, and summarize economic theorem!
'Last night, he must have been seriously studying advanced mathematics again.
'I can't let him catch a cold.'
Then, the old professor took off his coat and carefully covered Lin Fan.
He reminded the examinees in a low voice, "Don't make any noise."
…
When the bell rang, Lin Fan finally opened his eyes.
At this moment, he realized that the old professor had already taken the test paper away.
Song Yi praised, "Brother Lin Fan, you're really awesome. You solved all the difficult questions in 40 minutes. Then, you went straight to sleep! I've only seen this kind of situation on TV and in novels. I didn't expect to encounter it today!"
"40 minutes? I think Brother Lin Fan finished it in less than half an hour! One word, awesome!" Zheng Jinbao corrected.
"Brother Lin Fan, how did you do the second last question? Do you still remember the answer?" Ma Zhong asked.
What 40 minutes?
What half an hour?
What second last question?
Lin Fan blinked his eyes and said, "I was too sleepy. I only did two questions and fell asleep."
Song Yi was speechless.
Zheng Jinbao was speechless.
Ma Zhong was speechless.
The three people were stunned.
…
After lunch, Lin Fan leisurely returned to his dorm.
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone vibrated.
It was 12 pm.
The red packets were here!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 19,999 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received ten yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 99 yuan.]
…
Lin Fan received a total of 59,211 yuan from today's red packets.
Lin Fan muttered in his heart, "These useless things again. I hope that signing in will bring some surprises."
"Sign in!"
...
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Professional-Level Violin Technique.]
[Professional-Level Violin Technique: Brings an extraordinary sense of enjoyment and amazing charm.]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan muttered to himself, "Last time, I got Professional Cello Skills. Now, I can play the violin. They're a pair. Not bad!"
The next two days were spent doing exams.
During the examination, some students sighed and some students regretted it.
However, when the exams were over, all the students' faces were replaced with happy smiles.
After all, they could pack their luggage and go home for a relaxing winter vacation.
…
At this moment, in the Mathematics Department's conference room.
The professors and leaders of the Mathematics Department were gathered together.
...
Hu Chuan, who was sitting at the head of the table, first swept his gaze across the crowd, then cleared his throat and said, "This year, not only did our Mathematics Department win the Higher Education Cup in the National Mathematical Modeling Competition, but we also successfully held an international mathematics report because our student solved Zhou's Conjecture. Moreover, he also solved the Twin Prime Number Conjecture… In one fell swoop, Jiangbei University will become famous in Hua Nation, and even in the entire world!
"This year is a year worth celebrating!"
Immediately, the entire conference room was filled with a round of applause.
Everyone was also very satisfied with this year.
This was because what happened this year not only made them feel proud but also allowed them to receive bonuses that far exceeded what they had received before.
They understood that all of this was because of Lin Fan.
After the applause, someone said in a low voice, "Today is the start of winter break. Lin Fan won't be in our school next year, right?"
The conference room suddenly fell silent.
That was right!
What if Lin Fan did not come to their school next year?
One had to know…
With Lin Fan's current status… If he wanted to go to any school in the world, he would definitely be welcomed.
Besides, Lin Fan did not get into the mathematics department of Jiangbei University through the college entrance examination.
Instead, he was specially recruited midway.
Since he could get into Jiangbei University, it was normal for him to get into other schools.
Thinking of this, Hu Chuan's heart tightened. He said, "Lin Fan is a great hero to Jiangbei University, especially our Mathematics Department! Now that the holidays are coming, I think… As teachers, we should go and send off the hero. What do you think?"
Everyone was smart. How could they not understand Hu Chuan's thoughts?
This was to make Lin Fan feel a sense of belonging and play the emotional card… so that he would continue to attend classes at Jiangbei University next year.
"Not bad!"
"I think I have to send Lin Fan off!"
"Lin Fan seems to be from Qing City, right? It's so far away. We have to send him off!"
…
In Room 104, Lin Fan took out his backpack and prepared to pack his clothes to go home.
At this moment, there was the sound of brisk footsteps in the corridor outside.
The dean of the Mathematics Department, the head of the grade, the dean of education, and the others walked in one after another.
"Lin Fan, you're packing your luggage. Come, let us help you." Hu Chuan laughed heartily.
Then, the dean, the head of the grade, and the others rushed forward to help Lin Fan fold his clothes and blanket as well as wipe his shoes…
Seeing this…
Song Yi, Ma Zhong, Zheng Jinbao, and the others all opened their mouths wide, their jaws almost dropping to the ground.
The dean, leaders, and professors were here to help a student pack up and fold his clothes and blanket?
This…
This…
This was completely beyond their understanding.
202 The Homeroom Teacher Is in the Hospital
Even though the leaders were not very agile, they had the advantage in numbers.
Soon, all the clothes and blankets were folded neatly, and Lin Fan's shoes were wiped clean.
Lin Fan was stunned as well. "Dean Hu, what are you… What are you doing?"
Hu Chuan coughed lightly. "We know that you're going on holiday. As teachers, of course, we came to send you off."
The professors, department heads, and the others standing at the side immediately echoed.
"Lin Fan, your home is in Qing City, right? It's not safe to go home alone."
"We've already prepared a car for you."
"Lin Fan, are you bringing these back?"
Then, the dean, the directors, the professors, and the others all helped to carry Lin Fan's luggage and led him out.
Only Zheng Jinbao, Song Yi, and Ma Zhong were left in the dormitory with blank expressions.
The dean and the others knew that Lin Fan was going on vacation, so they came to send him off?
Was it because Lin Fan lived in Qing City? They were worried that it would be unsafe for him to go back alone, so they wanted to send Lin Fan home?
'We're also on vacation. Teachers, why didn't you come to send us off?'
Also, Lin Fan lived in Qing City. Was that considered far? It was only 100 kilometers!
They all lived in other provinces that were hundreds and thousands of kilometers away! Were they not alone? Why were the leaders not afraid of something happening to them? Why did the school leaders not send them off?
Of course, these words… Zheng Jinbao, Song Yi, and Ma Zhong only said them in their hearts.
In the end, they could only sigh.
…
At this moment, Lin Fan was surrounded by the dean and the other department directors as he sat in a luxurious vehicle.
In the vehicle, the dean and the other department directors treated Lin Fan with utmost care and concern.
About an hour and a half later, the luxury bus arrived at Qing City.
When they saw Lin Tao and Dai Weixue, they quickly took out the gifts they had prepared and walked up to them with smiles on their faces.
"Are you Lin Fan's parents? I'm Hu Chuan, the dean of the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University. We were worried that Lin Fan might not be safe coming back alone, so we sent him back. By the way, this is a small gift to wish you a happy new year."
"I'm Ma Zhicheng, the head of the grade at the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University. This is a small gift. I wish you happiness and health."
"I'm Qin Jia, the head of mathematics at Jiangbei University. I wish you a happy new year."
…
As Lin Tao and Dai Weixue listened to everyone's words and looked at the gifts in their hands, their faces broke into a smile. "Thank you, thank you…Everyone, please come in and sit down for tea."
One had to know…
Jiangbei University was one of the top universities in Hua Nation. If these people were the leaders of Jiangbei University, they were probably professors!
Usually, they would only see one or two professors on TV or on the news.
Today, they had actually seen so many real professors at once.
Moreover, they all gave them gifts and wished them well.
This was simply… It was unbelievable.
No wonder they were so excited.
"You guys rest first. I'll go cook now," Dai Weixue said excitedly.
Cook?
She wanted to make a big table of food for so many people?
Would that not be too tiring?
Lin Fan said, "Mom, you don't have to cook. The school leaders are just sending me back. They'll be leaving soon.
"School leaders, don't worry. I'll be punctual next year."
Lin Fan was not a fool. On the contrary, he was very smart.
How could he not understand why the dean and the department directors personally sent him home, gave him gifts, and paid him an early New Year's visit?
They were just worried that he would not be going to Jiangbei University next year.
In fact, even if they did not do this, Lin Fan would still go to Jiangbei University.
This was because Lin Fan had felt very free and relaxed during the past few months at Jiangbei University.
He had not experienced university life enough.
Sure enough, after the dean, the directors, and the others heard this, their faces all revealed joy.
"Yes, Lin Fan is right. We're leaving now."
"There's no need to cook."
"There's no need to trouble yourself."
Clearly, they could tell that Lin Fan did not want them to stay for dinner.
They really did not care if they ate or not.
However, as long as Lin Fan promised to go to Jiangbei University next year, it was enough.
If they stayed for dinner and made Lin Fan unhappy, would they not regret it?
...
Thinking of this…
The dean, directors, and the others waved goodbye and quickly got into the bus before fleeing into the distance.
"Lil Fan, why did you let the dean and the others leave?" Dai Weixue asked with some blame.
"They still have things to do… Isn't it better for us to eat together as a family? Mom, I haven't eaten your glutinous rice cake fish for a long time. Did you make it today?" Lin Fan asked.
Dai Weixue said with a smile. "Don't worry, your dad bought the fish early in the morning. It'll be ready very soon."
As the sound of vegetables being washed came from the kitchen, smoke began to rise.
After a while, delicious food was served one after another.
The family was having a meal together. It was extremely warm and relaxed.
This meal…
Lin Fan was very satisfied. He lay on the soft sofa and played with his phone leisurely.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that the group chat of his high school classmates, which had been silent for a long time since the last class reunion, had suddenly come to life again today.
...
Huang De: [Our homeroom teacher, Li Yong, has a tumor and is currently hospitalized in the Central Hospital of Qing City.]
Shen Liang: [What? The homeroom teacher has a tumor?] 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙣𝙚𝒕
Yin Zike: [I hope the homeroom teacher is fine.]
Geng Xue: [Our homeroom teacher is such a good person. Why did he suddenly get a tumor?]
Li Dasong: [Are there any of us in Qing City? Why don't we meet up and go visit our homeroom teacher?]
Huang De: [I was just about to say that I'm going to visit the homeroom teacher!]
Shen Liang: [Count me in, let's go together! Oh right, when should we meet?]
Li Dasong: [It's better to do it as soon as possible. Let's do it today.]
Wang Haoqi: [Although I'm in Jiangbei, my homeroom teacher is sick! I have to come back to see him. Wait a moment, I'll go back now!]
Geng Xue: [Unfortunately, I'm in another province…]
Li Dasong: [It doesn't matter. We can be the representatives.]
…
When Lin Fan saw the news, the image of his homeroom teacher, Li Yong, appeared in his mind.
When he was in high school, he would buy breakfast by the roadside. Whenever he met Li Yong, he would pay for it.
Lin Fan remembered that Li Yong had given him an umbrella when it suddenly rained.
…
Although most of them were small matters, they were very heartwarming.
The homeroom teacher was sick, so he had to visit him!
Lin Fan stood up and walked out.
At this moment, he remembered that he was sent back by the dean and the others on a bus. He did not have a car.
Therefore, he could only wave his hand and call a taxi before heading straight to the Central Hospital in Qing City.
203 Meeting Classmates; Hospital Admissions!
Usually… the pedestrians and vehicles on the streets of Qing City were all very sparse.
However, since it was the end of the year, everything was bustling with activity.
As far as the eye could see, the entire road was filled with a black mass of people and rows of vehicles.
Lin Fan took a taxi, and it took him more than half an hour to reach the hospital.
Lin Fan had just gotten out of the taxi when a Toyota Corolla drove over.
"You're… Lin Fan?" Li Dasong, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses, rolled down the window of the Corolla's driver's seat.
"Li Dasong!" Lin Fan smiled.
"Haha! It really is you!" Li Dasong said happily.
Lin Fan and Li Dasong used to sit in front of each other, so their relationship was pretty good.
The two of them were very happy to meet after so many years.
Honk, honk!
At this moment, the car behind Li Dasong honked.
"Lin Fan, why don't you wait for me in front?" Li Dasong asked. "I'll park the car."
"Alright!" Lin Fan replied.
Not long after, Li Dasong walked over.
There were two more people beside him, Wang Haoqi and Shen Liang.
"What a coincidence. I just arrived at the parking lot and coincidentally bumped into Wang Haoqi and Shen Liang!" Li Dasong said happily.
Lin Fan nodded his head lightly as a form of greeting.
Wang Haoqi's expression was a little unnatural.
That was because he had always been on bad terms with Lin Fan.
At the last gathering, when Wang Haoqi found out that Lin Fan only had a few thousand yuan a month, he was very happy and could not stop mocking him.
However, he later found out that Lin Fan had a Lamborghini and was wearing a Vacheron Constantin Tour de l'Ile!
This made Wang Haoqi very jealous and unhappy.
Li Dasong did not know about this at all. He said, "Lin Fan, you came because you saw the messages in the group, right?"
"Yes," Lin Fan said.
Li Dasong put his hand on Lin Fan's shoulder and said, "Say, since you're here to see the homeroom teacher, why didn't you tell us in the group? Why waste money on a taxi? I could've brought you here directly!"
Take a taxi?
Wang Haoqi was slightly stunned.
Where was Lin Fan's Lamborghini?
Why did he take a taxi?
"Qing City is only so big," Lin Fan said casually. "It's convenient to take a taxi."
"Where's Qin Yuxuan?" Shen Liang asked. "Didn't she come with you?"
Lin Fan shook his head. "No."
Qin Yuxuan was not with Lin Fan?
Wang Haoqi was even more confused.
Last time, did Lin Fan not drive Qin Yuxuan home in his Lamborghini?
It was such a good opportunity… Lin Fan should be able to win Qin Yuxuan's heart easily.
Lamborghini?
Taxi?
Qin Yuxuan did not come?
Wang Haoqi connected these three things together.
He quickly lowered his head to look at Lin Fan's wrist, but he did not see the Vacheron Constantin's Tour de l'Ile!
Instantly, Wang Haoqi had a guess in his heart…
Could it be that Lin Fan had no money?
The Lamborghini and the Vacheron Constantin Tour de l'Ile were not actually his?
That day, after he sent Qin Yuxuan home, Qin Yuxuan found out about this… Was that why Lin Fan failed to woo her?
That was right!
That must be the case!
When they were in high school, Lin Fan's family was not rich. 𝚋𝚎d𝚗ov𝚎𝚕.co𝚖
As his sister was sick and hospitalized, Lin Fan had no choice but to drop out of school to work and give up on the college entrance examination.
In that case, how could he have a sports car and a watch worth tens of millions?
The more Wang Haoqi thought about it, the more likely it was, and his mood became better.
At this moment, a series of footsteps sounded not far away.
The tall and thin Huang De walked over quickly. When he saw everyone, he greeted them, "Hey, long time no see!"
...
When he saw Lin Fan, Huang De's tone became even more arrogant.
"Lin Fan! You're here too!"
Then, he said, "I didn't expect you to be a hidden rich second-generation heir! I heard that you have a Lamborghini! Hurry up and show me!"
"What? Lin Fan has a Lamborghini?" Li Dasong was surprised.
"Isn't that so? Someone sent me a photo last time! Let's not say so much. Lin Fan, quickly bring me there!" Huang De said excitedly.
Wang Haoqi pricked up his ears when he heard this.
He also wanted to hear how Lin Fan would reply.
Lin Fan said, "I'm afraid that won't do. My car is parked in Jiangbei. Today, my school's dean, directors, and some others suddenly sent me back on a bus."
All of this was the truth, but to Wang Haoqi, it sounded like the funniest joke in the world.
If Lin Fan had said that he had sent his car for maintenance, Wang Haoqi might have believed him.
However, why did he say that his car was parked in Jiangbei?
...
The school's dean and directors personally sent him back on a bus?
Who did he think he was?
What a joke!
Wang Haoqi almost laughed out loud.
"Your school?" Shen Liang asked, puzzled. "Lin Fan, are you still studying?"
"Yes, I'm studying at Jiangbei University. By the way, the chancellor has the same name as you," Lin Fan said.
"Really?" Shen Liang said in surprise.
When Lin Fan first heard the name of the chancellor of Jiangbei University, he was also very surprised.
"Jiangbei University?" Li Dasong exclaimed. "That's a famous university in Hua Nation! Lin Fan is awesome!"
They were all old classmates…
Even though they had not seen each other for a long time, there was no barrier between them when they chatted. It was very relaxed.
"Huang De, how's the homeroom teacher doing?" Li Dasong asked.
As soon as he said this, the relaxed atmosphere immediately became heavy.
"I'm not too sure either…" Huang De said. "It was said that it's quite serious… However, don't be dejected later. You have to keep the homeroom teacher optimistic and in a good mood so that he can recover faster."
"That's right!" Everyone nodded.
Finally, everyone entered the ward.
At this moment, a haggard middle-aged woman and a beautiful girl were carefully wiping the haggard middle-aged man lying on the hospital bed with an oxygen tube. He was the homeroom teacher, Li Yong.
When the middle-aged woman and the girl saw so many people coming in at once, they could not help but reveal a hint of doubt.
"Hello, Madam. We're Teacher Li's former students," Huang De said.
As soon as he finished speaking, Huang De, Lin Fan, and the others placed the fruits and milk that they had bought to the side.
Li Yong, who was lying on the hospital bed, raised his head with difficulty and smiled. "It's Huang De, Lin Fan, Wang Haoqi, Li Dasong, and Shen Liang!"
Li Yong had a good memory.
Even after so many years, he still called out everyone's names accurately.
In the past, many people thought that the homeroom teacher did not know them. At the very least, they did not know their names.
However, he could still call their names out. This was definitely something to be happy about.
204 Expert in Flying Knife Style; It's Just a Small Matter!
When the middle-aged woman, Yang Wei, heard that they were her husband's former students, she could not help but feel a touch of warmth in her heart.
With so many students coming to visit her husband, it was not in vain that he had been teaching diligently.
Yang Wei was a little annoyed. "You guys should have just come to see your teacher. Why did you bring so many things? You're too polite."
"They're just some fruits and milk. It's nothing," Huang De said.
When Li Yong saw so many of his former students, a hint of redness gradually surfaced on his pale face.
"Do you all work in Qing City?" Li Yong asked in a hoarse voice.
"I work at Hushui Street Office in Qing City," said Huang De.
"I'm in sales," Li Dasong said.
"I'm working in IT in Jiangbei," Shen Liang said.
Wang Haoqi cleared his throat and said in an extremely proud tone, "I'm the supervisor of a listed company in Jiangbei, Jiaye Group."
"I'm studying at Jiangbei University," Lin Fan said.
When Li Yong, who was lying on the hospital bed, heard this, his pale face became even redder. He said happily, "Good, good, good! Jiangbei University is great!"
Back then, Lin Fan performed very well in class, and his grades were not bad.
In the end, he chose to drop out of school due to family reasons and did not take the college entrance examination or go to university.
This matter could be said to be Li Yong's greatest regret.
Now that he knew that Lin Fan had successfully entered a university and that it was the best university in Jiang province, Jiangbei University, Li Yong was genuinely happy.
Wang Haoqi saw how much Li Yong cared about Lin Fan, and his face flashed with displeasure.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Li Yong's health was not good to begin with. When he suddenly became so happy, he started coughing violently. His heartbeat and blood pressure also began to change drastically.
The monitoring device beside him sounded an urgent alarm.
"Doctor, Doctor!" Yang Wei shouted anxiously.
Soon, a nurse and a bald doctor walked in quickly.
They quickly checked Li Yong's body and injected a few bottles of medicine. Li Yong's body finally recovered.
"Doctor, how's our teacher?" Li Dasong could not help but ask.
"The tumor in the patient's body is in a very dangerous state now. I suggest that the patient undergoes surgery as soon as possible," the bald doctor said. "Otherwise, it's very easy for a dangerous situation to occur."
After the bald doctor and nurse left, everyone in the ward looked at each other.
"Ma'am, is it because you have a financial problem that Teacher hasn't gotten the surgery?" asked Li Dasong.
"Your homeroom teacher is a full-time employee," Yang Wei said. "He has employee insurance too. In addition, we've built some savings over the years. It should be enough for the surgery.
"However, this surgery is very dangerous. We have to get a specialist to do it…"
Li Xinyue said, "We've asked some doctors, and they said that it's safest to let experts who are proficient in the 'Flying Knife Style' to perform the surgery."
An expert in the Fying Knife Style?
Lin Fan's expression changed slightly.
He remembered very clearly that his father's surgery was done by a leader of Qing City, Director Li Quan, who was an expert in Flying Knife Style.
Initially, Lin Fan was still considering whether he should let his homeroom teacher take Medical Water.
This was not because Lin Fan was heartbroken by the ten million.
It was because many people knew that the homeroom teacher had a tumor in his body. If he drank the Medical Water and recovered immediately, it would be more troublesome to explain.
Now, if he could be treated with normal medical methods, then Lin Fan could use Medical Water to help him recuperate after the treatment. This was obviously the best choice.
Huang De nodded and said, "We should indeed let a specialist do the surgery. It's safer…"
Then, he turned to Lin Fan and the others and said, "Do you know any experts?"
Wang Haoqi, who had been silent all this while, could not help but cough lightly. He said, "You might not know much about the Flying Knife Style, but it's a surgical technique known for its speed, accuracy, and precision. It can achieve the highest success rate of surgery at the cost of minimal trauma!"
Wang Haoqi clasped his hands behind his back and spoke with an assurance like a knowledgeable professor.
This… He had heard it from his cousin not long ago.
He did not expect that he would actually have a place to use it today.
His words quickly attracted everyone's attention.
Wang Haoqi looked at everyone's unblinking gazes, and a smug expression appeared on his face.
"Currently, the most famous surgeon in our country who uses this technique is Chief Physician Li Quan from Jingbei Association Hospital!"
"Yes!" Li Xinyue hurriedly said. "The other doctors also said that Li Quan is very capable. Could it be that you can invite Chief Physician Li Quan to help my father with the surgery?"
Chief Physician Li Quan?
How was that possible?
Wang Haoqi coughed awkwardly and said, "Chief Physician Li Quan is the chief physician of Jingbei Association Hospital. He rarely performs surgeries for people anymore…"
When Li Xinyue heard this, she could not help but look disappointed.
"Although I can't ask Chief Physician Li Quan to help with the surgery, his favorite disciple, Dr. Fan Mingzhi, is my cousin's classmate. I can invite him over.
"You might not know this, but Doctor Fan Mingzhi has already mastered 70% to 80% of Chief Physician Li Quan's Flying Knife Style!"
"Really?" Yang Wei said excitedly. "That's great! Wang Haoqi, I'll have to trouble you, then."
...
"It's just a small matter. You don't have to be so polite, Miss." Wang Haoqi waved his hand.
After saying that, he did not forget to look at Lin Fan with a smug gaze.
It was as if he was saying, 'Lin Fan, aren't you very strong? Why don't you find an expert, then?'
Then, Wang Haoqi dialed Fan Mingzhi's number under everyone's gaze.
Not long ago, after his cousin bragged about Fan Mingzhi, Wang Haoqi saved his phone number.
After a while, the call went through.
"Hello, who is it?" A dull voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Are you Dr. Fan Mingzhi?" Wang Haoqi asked. "I'm Zhao Feidi's cousin, Wang Haoqi."
"Zhao Feidi's cousin? Is there anything you need?" Fan Mingzhi asked in confusion.
"Oh, it's like this. My high school homeroom teacher has a tumor. Can I trouble you to come to the Central Hospital in Qing City to help with the operation?" Wang Haoqi said straightforwardly.
"I see," Fan Mingzhi said. "But I don't have time right now. Let's not talk about it now. I still have things to do here."
...
Then, Wang Haoqi heard an indignant voice coming from the phone.
"Is it true that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can call me to ask me to perform surgery now?"
Immediately after, the call ended.
As everyone was waiting for Wang Haoqi to talk to Dr. Fan Mingzhi, the entire ward was very quiet.
This allowed everyone to hear everything Fan Mingzhi said.
Silence!
Sudden silence was the most terrifying!
205 Lin Fan Makes a Move; The Harm of Comparisons
Wang Haoqi originally wanted to perform well in front of everyone.
However…
'Is it true that any Tom, Dick, or Harry can call me to ask me to perform surgery now?"
Fan Mingzhi's words echoed in his mind.
Embarrassing!
It was too embarrassing!
When Wang Haoqi raised his head, he saw Lin Fan shaking his head slowly.
It was as if he was saying, 'Wang Haoqi, you're a failure!'
Others could laugh!
However, Lin Fan could not!
Wang Haoqi was extremely furious, and his eyes rolled.
After a while, he sighed and said, "I just remembered that my cousin and Dr. Fan Mingzhi had a conflict a while ago. It seems… we can't invite him over for the time being.
"I'm sorry, Madam. I can't help you for the time being. "
It had to be said that Wang Haoqi still had some adaptability.
In such a short period of time, he had made up a good reason.
After he said that, the atmosphere in the ward improved a lot.
"It doesn't matter. You've already done your best," Yang Wei said.
Wang Haoqi continued, "Lin Fan, I saw you shaking your head just now. Could it be… that you know an expert?
"That's right! That must be the case, right? You're a second-generation rich kid who's been hidden among us for so many years.
"Since you know an expert, you must ask him to help the homeroom teacher!"
"Rich second-generation heir?" Yang Wei was puzzled.
Yang Wei had never seen Lin Fan before.
However, she had heard Lin Fan's name from Li Yong many times.
Yang Wei knew that Lin Fan had dropped out of school to work because of family reasons.
For this…
Li Yong often lamented at home.
A rich second generation?
"That's right!" Wang Haoqi said. "Madam, you might not know, but Lin Fan had a sports car and a luxury watch at the last gathering! However, the deans and directors of Jiangbei University sent him back to Qing City personally, so he didn't bring his sports car here."
Obviously, Wang Haoqi had already confirmed that Lin Fan was not some rich kid. The sports car and watch from last time did not belong to him at all.
Therefore, he was mocking him now.
He had just lost so much face, so he would make Lin Fan lose even more face!
"Lin Fan, hurry up and call the specialist you know," Wang Haoqi said. "The homeroom teacher's condition can't be delayed."
He could say that the supercar was in Jiangbei, but what about finding an expert? How could Lin Fan find an excuse?
Wang Haoqi looked at Lin Fan quietly as if he was watching a good show.
Although Yang Wei wanted her husband to get professional treatment as soon as possible and she was worried sick, she felt that the atmosphere was not quite right.
Hence, she said, "It's okay if you don't know anyone…"
Lin Fan said, "Madam, you've misunderstood. I know an expert who knows how to use Flying Knife Style. Furthermore, it's Chief Physician Li Quan whom you mentioned just now. I should be able to invite him over with a call."
"Really?" Yang Wei said in surprise.
When Wang Haoqi heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he almost laughed out loud.
'Lin Fan… Do you have to brag like this?'
Li Quan was the head of Jingbei Association Hospital!
Even if Lin Fan was a rich second-generation heir, he could not just call him over!
One had to know…
A doctor at Li Quan's level could no longer be tempted by money!
Wang Haoqi looked at Lin Fan with an even more expectant gaze.
He wanted to see what kind of funny scene Lin Fan would make.
"Since that's the case, Lin Fan, hurry up and make the call." Wang Haoqi urged.
Obviously, he wanted Lin Fan to make a call on the spot to prevent him from doing anything.
Lin Fan glanced at Wang Haoqi indifferently. How could he not understand what he was thinking?
However, he did not pay too much attention to it. He nodded and dialed Li Quan's number.
When Li Quan operated on Lin Fan's father, Lin Tao, the two of them exchanged contact details.
Thus, Lin Fan could easily contact him.
After a while, the call went through.
"This is Chief Physician Li Quan, right?" Lin Fan asked.
...
"It's me! Mr. Lin, what's the matter?" Li Quan's light voice came from the phone.
After hearing Li Quan's reply, Yang Wei, Li Xinyue, Li Dasong, Huang De, Shen Liang, and the others all revealed looks of joy.
Lin Fan really knew Li Quan!
On the contrary, the smile on Wang Haoqi's face froze.
Lin Fan… How did he really know Li Quan?
"Well, my high school homeroom teacher has a tumor. Can I trouble you to come to the Central Hospital in Qing City to help with the operation?" Lin Fan asked.
"Of course, no problem!" Li Quan said. "However, I'm in Qing province now. I might only be able to come over tomorrow to help with the check-up and arrange for the surgery."
He agreed!
Chief Physician Li Quan agreed!
The smiles on Yang Wei, Li Xinyue, Li Dasong, and the others widened.
Wang Haoqi's expression turned even uglier.
...
It was exactly the same!
Lin Fan actually said the exact same thing as him!
He was directly rejected by Chief Physician Li Quan's student, Fan Mingzhi. He even said that any Tom, Dick, and Harry could call to have him perform an operation…
When Lin Fan said the same line to Chief Physician Li Quan, he agreed immediately!
This was the harm of comparisons!
Lin Fan said, "Alright, see you tomorrow."
After hanging up the call…
"Thank you, Lin Fan," Yang Wei said happily. "Thank you!"
Li Xinyue hugged Lin Fan and said excitedly, "Brother Lin Fan, you're amazing!"
Although Li Xinyue was only 17 or 18 years old, girls developed quickly.
At this moment, her figure had already begun to take shape. When she suddenly hugged him…
Lin Fan felt his lower abdomen heat up. He coughed dryly and said, "This is just a small matter."
"Lin Fan!" Li Dasong praised, "You even managed to invite Chief Physician Li Quan over. Lin Fan, you're awesome! I actually didn't notice it at all in the past!"
"That's amazing!" Huang De gave him a thumbs up.
"Impressive!" Shen Liang said.
Everyone surrounded Lin Fan and kept praising him.
These words were like the sound of glass shattering in Wang Haoqi's ears. It was extremely ear-piercing.
He could not help but ask, "Lin Fan, did you just call Chief Physician Li Quan of Jingbei Association Hospital?"
Obviously, he was doubting the identity of the person Lin Fan had just called.
After hearing Wang Haoqi's words, everyone could not help but calm down.
That was right.
Was it really Chief Physician Li Quan of Jingbei Association Hospital?
Li Quan was a famous doctor. be𝚍nove𝚕.com
Yet Lin Fan asked him to come over with just a phone call?
Was it that simple?
Also, the person on the phone just now seemed to have said that he was in Qing province? It was not the capital!
At this moment, footsteps sounded from outside.
Several doctors walked over. The person in the lead was Director Huang of the Central Hospital in Qing City.
When Director Huang saw Lin Fan, he could not help but quicken his pace. He said excitedly, "Mr. Lin, why are you here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his right hand and was about to shake Lin Fan's hand.
206 Qing Kun Group; Li Quan Arrives!
Director Huang liked to watch ancient dramas. He found that the emperors were usually in court and had no way of knowing the lives of the people.
Only if the emperor went out in civilian clothes could he slowly discover and solve problems.
Hence…
Director Huang did just that. Every time he had free time after dealing with the work at hand, he would wander around the wards to see what was not done well in the hospital and what needed to be changed.
Today, he did not expect to meet Lin Fan in a ward.
Director Huang had a deep impression of Lin Fan.
He still remembered how polite Zhao Jiaqi was to Lin Fan. He even visited Lin Fan's father several times.
Director Huang was a sensible person. He knew that Lin Fan definitely had an extraordinary status.
Lin Fan had a principle. If others respected him, he would respect them.
When he saw Director Huang take the initiative to reach out his hand, he also extended his hand and said, "Director Huang, long time no see."
Director Huang?
Director?
As soon as he said that, everyone around him revealed a look of surprise.
"This is my high school homeroom teacher," Lin Fan introduced. "He's waiting for treatment at your hospital."
"What? He's your homeroom teacher?" Director Huang said to the doctor beside her, "Arrange for this patient to be sent to the VIP ward later. Also, call his attending doctor over."
"Yes," the doctor beside him quickly responded.
After a while, two doctors rushed over.
One of them was the bald doctor from not long ago, and the other was wearing silver-rimmed glasses.
"Hello, Director," the two of them said in unison.
"Tell me about this patient's condition in detail," Director Huang said.
"There's a tumor in the patient's liver, which is closer to the liver and arteries… We suggest that the surgery be carried out as soon as possible to avoid any accidents."
"This kind of surgery is difficult. It's best to hire an expert who uses Flying Knife Style as the chief surgeon.
"But our hospital doesn't have any experts in Flying Knife Style…"
The bald doctor held the CT photos and related medical records, explaining in a very gentle tone. Compared to his previous attitude, it was like heaven and earth.
"I've already contacted Chief Physician Li Quan regarding the surgery. He can come over tomorrow," Lin Fan said.
"Chief Physician Li Quan is a master of Flying Knife Style!" Director Huang said. "Since you've invited him over, there shouldn't be a problem at all!
"Tomorrow, we'll reserve the best surgical room!"
Lin Fan chatted with Director Huang for a while more. Then, Director Huang personally arranged for Li Yong to be in a VIP ward with the doctors and nurses before leaving.
At this moment, Yang Wei, Li Xinyue, Huang De, Li Dasong, Shen Liang, and the rest all looked at Lin Fan.
How could they not understand that Lin Fan had definitely asked for Chief Physician Li Quan from the Jingbei Association Hospital?
The hospital director and the entire hospital's careful treatment were the best proof!
Yang Wei said sincerely again, "Lin Fan… Thank you, thank you!"
"With this, the homeroom teacher's body will definitely recover very quickly!" Li Dasong said.
"That's right!" Shen Liang said.
Huang De said, "Lin Fan, you really hid it too well!"
"Thank you, Brother Lin Fan," Li Xinyue said softly.
Li Yong, who was lying on the hospital bed, saw Lin Fan's current ability. His weathered face was filled with gratification and joy. He said in a hoarse voice, "Lin Fan, sorry to trouble you."
Lin Fan said, "This is no trouble, Teacher."
Everyone kept praising Lin Fan. The atmosphere in the ward was extremely warm and relaxed.
Wang Haoqi, who was standing at the side, had a gloomy expression.
Originally, he called someone who knew Flying Knife Style to show off his ability, but in the end, he was called a nobody.
Originally, he wanted Lin Fan to become a bigger joke, but in the end, Lin Fan became the object of everyone's praise.
In comparison, Wang Haoqi had become the biggest joke!
Lin Fan!
It was all because of Lin Fan!
Wang Haoqi was extremely furious, but he was helpless.
…
That night, Lin Fan slept soundly in the house that he had not stayed in for a long time.
The next day…
When Lin Fan woke up, as usual, there was already a text message on his phone.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,640,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Lin Fan lay on the bed and scrolled through his phone for a while. He muttered, "Let's see what we can get from signing in today.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained 51% of Qing Kun Group's shares.]
...
Qing Kun Group was a large company in Qing City.
Qing Kun Palace, Qing Kun Central, Qing Kun City, Qing Kun Hotel, Qing Kun Supermarket, and others were all properties of Qing Kun Group. It was a company that solved the employment problem of thousands of people in Qing City.
In recognition of Qing Kun Group's contribution, Qing City named one of the main roads in the city Qing Kun Avenue.
As a citizen of Qing City, Lin Fan had heard of Qing Kun Group.
51% of the shares?
In other words, he was now the boss of Qing Kun Group?
Seeing this…
Lin Fan's lips curled up into a smile.
After getting up and washing up, he bought some doughnuts and soy milk nearby.
Then, Lin Fan hailed a taxi and went to the Central Hospital in Qing City.
At this moment, Li Dasong, Huang De, Shen Liang, and the others had already arrived at the hospital.
...
Wang Haoqi said that he had something important to do today, so he could not come.
Regarding this…
No one paid too much attention to it.
At this moment, a series of brisk footsteps sounded outside the spacious corridor.
Then, a large group of doctors and nurses walked over.
The people in the lead were Director Huang, whom they had met yesterday, and Chief Physician Li Quan, who often appeared in news reports!
"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting," Li Quan said apologetically.
Lin Fan said, "It's nothing. I just arrived. Besides, I'm the one who should be apologizing for making you rush over from out of town."
"Mr. Lin, you're too polite… It's my duty to treat and save people," Li Quan said.
Director Huang listened to their conversation and could not help but reveal a hint of surprise.
One had to know…
Chief Physician Li Quan was a very well-known doctor in the industry.
The reason why the leaders of Qing City were able to invite him over previously was that Li Quan was in Jiangbei City, which was nearby.
If Li Quan had been in the capital, it would not have been so easy.
When Li Quan arrived at the hospital, his attitude towards the leaders of Qing City was very calm.
In the end, not only did Lin Fan invite Li Quan over when he was in another province, but Li Quan was so polite to Lin Fan!
It was hard to imagine.
Instantly, Director Huang looked at Lin Fan with even more respect.
207 The Surgery Is Safe; Meeting Han Tian!
In fact…
Just as Director Huang had expected, if it had been the leaders of Qing City who invited Li Quan and he was in another province, they would not have been able to persuade him.
The reason why Lin Fan was able to invite him over and receive such courteous treatment from Li Quan…
It was all because Li Quan had seen Lin Fan save the life of the Zhou family's old master.
The Zhou family was one of the top families in Hua Nation.
Lin Fan had essentially saved the entire Zhou Family.
Li Quan, who was in the capital, knew very well what this meant.
After some small talk, Lin Fan finally got down to business.
"Director Li, how is my homeroom teacher? Is the surgery very dangerous?"
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere in the ward suddenly froze.
Yang Wei, Li Xinyue, Huang De, and the others all looked at Li Quan nervously.
"You don't have to be nervous," Li Quan said in a relaxed manner. "I've already seen your homeroom teacher's medical record. His tumor is still a certain distance away from the liver and arteries. There's no danger in removing it."
It had to be said that Li Quan's skills were indeed far superior to that of ordinary doctors.
The surgery that the Central Hospital in Qing City did not dare to do casually was not taken to be a dangerous surgery by Li Quan.
"Let me put it this way. I've performed dozens of surgeries that were more dangerous than this, and there were no accidents," Li Quan said.
Instantly, the atmosphere in the ward became relaxed.
Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief.
If the risk of the surgery was very high, Lin Fan would have to consider whether his homeroom teacher should undergo the surgery.
Then, Li Quan said to Li Yong, who was lying on the hospital bed, "You didn't eat anything this morning, did you?"
"No, I didn't," Li Yong replied.
"Alright, we'll do a simple examination later, and then we can perform the surgery… After that, you'll be able to recover very quickly," Li Quan said.
"Alright, alright," Li Yong said.
Under Director Huang's personal command, Li Yong underwent a check-up.
In just ten minutes, all the latest data about Li Yong's body appeared in Li Quan's hands.
Li Quan looked through the information carefully and said, "Your body is in good condition. Director Huang, are there any empty operating rooms?"
"Yes! I've already reserved the best operating room!" Director Huang said.
Then, accompanied by several attending physicians and excellent nurses, Li Quan brought Li Yong into the operating room.
Time passed by.
Even though the famous Chief Physician Li Quan was the one performing the surgery this time and he also said that there was no danger, Yang Wei was still a little nervous. She said, "Lin Fan, your homeroom teacher… He should be fine, right?"
Lin Fan said, "Don't worry, he'll be fine."
His tone was extremely certain.
It was because even if the surgery was not successful, as long as Li Yong was still breathing, Lin Fan would have a way to save him.
Beside him, Li Xinyue, who had been nervous the entire time, felt a lot more relaxed after hearing Lin Fan's reply.
"I believe in Brother Lin Fan."
Creak!
At this moment, the door to the operating room opened.
A bone-piercing cold air assaulted their faces.
Li Quan and a few doctors walked out together.
"Chief Physician Li, how's my husband?" Yang Wei hurriedly asked.
"Don't worry, the surgery was very successful," Li Quan said in a relaxed manner. "However, because the surgery has just ended, he's still under anesthesia. We have to wait for him to rest first…"
"Alright, alright, alright… Okay, thank you, Director Li. Thank you!" Yang Wei said excitedly, her eyes turning red.
When Li Yong fell ill, Yang Wei felt as if the entire sky had collapsed.
Now, everything was fine…
He was finally fine!
"You're welcome. This is what I should do…" Li Quan said.
Then, Yang Wei said to Lin Fan, "Lin Fan, thank you!"
She understood that the reason why Li Yong had such a good result was all because of Lin Fan.
Lin Fan said, "Madam, you don't have to be so polite."
At noon…
Under Lin Fan's arrangements, Director Huang, Li Quan, Huang De, Li Dasong, Shen Liang, and the rest had a sumptuous lunch together.
During the meal, Lin Fan received 40,121 yuan from the red packets.
In the afternoon, Li Yong woke up and stabilized.
Everyone was completely relieved.
At this moment, a crisp notification rang out in Lin Fan's mind.
...
[Ding! You've completed the hidden mission—rescue the commander. Reward: Five silver packets.]
When Lin Fan saw this, his face could not help but reveal a look of joy.
He completed another hidden mission?
Was this karma?
Now, the homeroom teacher had survived the danger and he received another five silver packets.
After leaving the hospital, Lin Fan walked on the road. His footsteps felt much lighter.
"M-Mr. Lin?"
Not far away, a crisp voice suddenly sounded.
Lin Fan looked in the direction of the voice. It was Lianjia's manager, Han Tian.
In the past, whenever Lin Fan saw Han Tian, she was always wearing a business suit and a shirt.
Today, Han Tian was wearing a long white down jacket and a white V-neck knitted top.
...
Her skin was excellent to begin with, and it complemented her white clothes.
Her voluptuous figure was extremely eye-catching.
In the past, Han Tian looked like a capable career woman.
Right now, she gave off the feeling that she was a beautiful flower that was in full bloom, waiting to be picked at any time.
Even Lin Fan could not help but be unable to take her eyes off her.
Han Tian saw that Lin Fan was looking at her, and her face started to blush. She lowered her head shyly.
After a while, Han Tian said softly, "What a coincidence, Mr. Lin. So you're also in Qing City."
When Lin Fan heard that, he finally came back to his senses and said, "Yes, what a coincidence…
"No, my home is in Qing City… It's the holidays, so , of course, I'm in Qing City. Why did you come to Qing City? Don't tell me your hometown is also in Qing City?" Lin Fan asked.
Lin Fan's home was in Qing City.
Han Tian silently noted this down and said, "My hometown is in Qing province… The son of a business partner in Jiangbei is getting married in Qing City tomorrow. I'm here as a representative to attend the wedding banquet."
Lin Fan nodded his head and said, "Manager Han, it's rare for you to come to Qing City. Let me treat you to a meal."
Have a meal with Lin Fan?
Han Tian's heart raced.
Without any hesitation, she said, "Alright!"
Jiangbei was a provincial capital city with many high-end restaurants.
Qing City was an ordinary prefecture-level city, and the people's consumption power could not support those high-end restaurants at all.
Lin Fan brought Han Tian to a nearby tavern called Chu Wei Xuan. This tavern was not big.
However, the dishes were all local specialties, and there was also the self-brewed sake… This made the meal feel different.
When they walked out of Chu Wei Xuan, the sky had already turned completely dark.
After drinking some wine and eating some side dishes, Han Tian was now walking along the winding path with Lin Fan. A sense of happiness that she had never felt before rose in Han Tian's heart.
As a real estate manager, Han Tian had a good tolerance for alcohol.
She had only drunk a small glass of sake in Chu Wei Xuan.
Even so, she still felt that she was drunk. She was completely immersed in happiness and could not extricate herself.
When they turned a corner, a sharp honk suddenly sounded in front of them.
A car suddenly sped over.
The dazzling light shone on Han Tian's fair face, making it crystal clear like a precious jade.
It was dangerous!
It was very dangerous!
Lin Fan raised his eyebrows and pulled Han Tian into his embrace. He then quickly dodged to the side of the road and avoided the car.
The two of them hugged each other by the roadside.
Their eyes met.
Han Tian's heart was racing!
At this moment, she felt as if she was looking at her own hero!
Her gaze was so fiery.
Lin Fan was very familiar with this gaze. He could not help but use his Eyes of Truth to observe.
[Appearance: 94]
[Favorability: 95]
At this moment, Han Tian's head seemed to have been attracted by something. She kept getting closer and closer to Lin Fan…
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
208 Lucky; Introduction!
The next morning.
In the presidential suite on the top floor of Wang Hao Hotel in Qing City.
When a gentle breeze blew outside, causing the branches to sway gently, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes.
The first thing he saw was the bright red on the white bedsheet and Han Tian, who was as docile as a kitten.
!
"Mhm…"
Han Tian seemed to have sensed Lin Fan's gaze and let out a soft hum.
After that, her long eyelashes fluttered and she opened her eyes.
They locked eyes.
Han Tian looked at Lin Fan's handsome face.
Lin Fan looked at Han Tian's perfect figure.
The two of them were like magnets, hugging each other tightly once again.
Outside the window… the two sparrows pecked each other's heads, relaxed and happy.
…
About an hour later, the two of them reluctantly climbed out of bed.
Han Tian had to attend her client's wedding today, so she could not be late.
"I don't have anything to do anyway. I'll accompany you later," Lin Fan said.
Han Tian had a good impression of Lin Fan since a long time ago.
When Lin Fan gave her a bag a while ago, Han Tian fell in love with him completely.
Now, the two of them had finally confirmed their relationship.
Han Tian wished she could stick to Lin Fan all the time. When she heard that Lin Fan was going to attend the wedding with her, she was naturally very happy. She nodded her head and said, "That's great!"
Then, the two of them held hands and went downstairs for breakfast.
He got into Han Tian's BMW 530LI and sped toward Qing Kun Hotel.
Qing Kun Hotel was one of the most luxurious hotels in Qing City.
Today, a long red carpet was laid out at the entrance of the hotel. Bright flowers were placed on it, making it look even more magnificent and luxurious.
Men and women in gorgeous clothes walked on the carpet with smiles on their faces.
At this moment, in front of the most luxurious hall of Qing Kun Hotel, there was a huge wedding poster. The people on the poster were the main characters of today, Wu Kai and Zhao Yutong.
After the guests entered the hall, they either sat down according to the arrangements or chatted with acquaintances… It was very lively.
Just as Han Tian and Lin Fan walked into the hall, a crisp voice sounded from not far away.
"Han Tian!"
The two of them looked in the direction of the voice.
A woman with good facial features and a hot figure walked over quickly.
"Liping!" Han Tian said.
"Han Tian, if you had come a moment later, I would've died from boredom," Zhao Liping grabbed Han Tian's arm and said happily.
When she saw Lin Fan beside her, her eyes lit up as she said in surprise, "Who's this handsome guy?"
"I'm Han Tian's boyfriend, Lin Fan," Lin Fan said.
When Han Tian heard this, her heart felt even sweeter.
She had only slept with Lin Fan yesterday.
Han Tian knew that Lin Fan already had a girlfriend, and more than one at that.
Therefore, Han Tian did not know if she was Lin Fan's girlfriend or not.
Now, she had finally received Lin Fan's acknowledgment.
"Han Tian, you have good taste!" Zhao Liping said with jealousy.
Lin Fan's appearance and temperament were simply too good.
"I think so too," said Han Tian happily.
At this moment, footsteps could be heard from afar.
Two men in suits walked over.
"Aren't these the two golden flowers of the real estate industry?" the shorter man said.
"Chen Dongxiang, Tu Dapeng!" Zhao Liping said.
"I didn't expect the two of you to represent Lianjia. It's great that we're all familiar faces!" Zhao Liping said happily.
"This is indeed good news!" Chen Dongxiang laughed.
He quickly noticed Lin Fan and asked curiously, "This is…"
"Let me introduce you. He's Han Tian's boyfriend, Lin Fan. How is he? Handsome, right?" Zhao Liping said.
"He's really handsome!" exclaimed Chen Dongxiang. "It's just that the other handsome men in the real estate industry are probably going to be sad."
At the side, Tu Dapeng, who had been silent all this while, looked at Lin Fan with a hint of jealousy.
One had to know…
...
Han Tian was a famous beauty in the real estate industry and the goddess of Tu Dapeng's dreams.
Now, she had become someone else's girlfriend!
"Lin Fan? You look very young. Are you from Jiangbei? Or are you working in Jiangbei?" Tu Dapeng asked indifferently.
"I'm from Qing City," Lin Fan said. "I don't work in Jiangbei. I'm studying at Jiangbei University."
A look of disdain flashed across Tu Dapeng's face.
He also had a college degree and knew very well that many college graduates only earned a few thousand yuan a month.
How could a college student be Han Tian's boyfriend?
Just because he was young and handsome?
What a joke!
Tu Dapeng continued, "So you're from Qing City and studying in Jiangbei. You're lucky to have followed Han Tian here today.
"Because today, you have the chance to see a few big shots that you might never see again!
...
"You're studying at Jiangbei University. You should know about Xiao Wu Wholesale City, right?"
Xiao Wu Wholesale City?
Was that not his company?
Of course, he knew it!
Lin Fan was puzzled. Why did he suddenly mention Xiao Wu Wholesale City?
However, he still nodded.
"Today, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City will be coming personally!" Tu Dapeng said.
"Do you know about the new landmark of Jiangbei, the Imperial Hotel?" Tu Dapeng asked after a pause.
Of course, Lin Fan knew!
This hotel belonged to Lin Fan!
Hence, Lin Fan nodded his head once more.
"The general manager of the Imperial Hotel will be coming over later too!" Tu Dapeng said.
Then, he continued, "I wonder if you pay any attention to the company that produced the medicine you take when you fall sick? Many of them are from Liu Pharmaceuticals!
"The CEO of Liu Pharmaceuticals will be here today!
"Also, you're from Qing City. You must know about Qing Kun Group, right? If you don't, it doesn't matter… Qing Kun Supermarket, Qing Kun City, and Qingkun Central are under it… By the way, the hotel we're at now, Qing Kun Hotel, belongs to Qing Kun Group!
"The chairman of Qing Kun Group will also be here later!"
Tu Dapeng was excited as if he knew everything!
It was as if he was doing something big.
When Lin Fan heard this, a strange look appeared on his face.
The people who came today seemed to all be familiar faces!
When Zhao Liping heard that so many big shots were coming, she could not help but reveal a look of surprise. She asked, "Tu Dapeng, how do you know this? Are they really coming?"
"I just saw the guest list. They should be coming." Tu Dapeng coughed.
Suddenly, a series of heavy footsteps sounded in the distance.
Then, a large group of men and women in suits and leather shoes strode in…
209 Gathering of Big Bosses; Mr. Lin!
The gazes of many people in the hall were all attracted by the temperament of this group of people.
"The man in the white shirt in front seems to be the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, Zhang Zhou!
"The one wearing silver glasses next to him… It's the general manager of the Imperial Hotel, Wang Fengyi!
"The one on the far right seems to be Liu Qingping, the CEO of Liu Pharmaceuticals!"
!
"The one in the middle is the chairman of Qing Kun Group, Li Wannian!"
Exclamations and discussions rose and fell in the hall.
Everyone looked at them with admiration and admiration.
In their eyes, these people were like the brightest stars!
Wu Meng, who was hosting the wedding banquet today, brought a couple and quickly went up to welcome them.
"Hahaha! Welcome, welcome to my son's wedding," Wu Meng's face was flushed as he shouted happily.
"President Wu, you're too polite."
All the CEOs cupped their fists in return, and the scene was extremely lively.
"Let's not stand here. We don't want to block these big shots. Let's sit down first," Tu Dapeng reminded.
At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly sounded from the crowd of CEOs.
"Brother Lin Fan?"
Then, Liu Yuhang walked over quickly and said happily, "Brother Lin Fan, it really is you! Haha! I didn't expect to see you here!"
Lin Fan smiled. "I didn't expect it either."
Liu Qingping, the CEO of Liu Pharmaceuticals, also walked over.
He knew his son very well.
In fact, he was also very proud.
Ordinary people were not worthy of his attention at all.
There were very few people who his son would treat so kindly and even address as Brother.
Therefore, Liu Qingping could not help but ask, "Yuhang, this is…"
"Dad, this is Lin Fan, Brother Lin Fan! " Liu Yuhang introduced.
Lin Fan!
Liu Qingping naturally knew this name.
The first time, Liu Yuhang said that Lin Fan had saved the life of Zhou Guotao.
The Zhou family… That was one of the top families in Hua Nation!
At that time, Liu Family decided to build a good relationship with Lin Fan.
The second time, Liu Yuhang said that Lin Fan had insider information about the stock market and asked if the Liu family wanted to invest together.
Insider information on the stock market?
Was such an old-fashioned trick being used to deceive the Liu family?
If it was someone else who said this, the Liu family would definitely kick the other party away.
However, the person who said that was Lin Fan!
In order to build a relationship with Lin Fan, the Liu family invested 600 million.
To the Liu family, even if they lost 100 to 200 million, as long as they had a good relationship with Lin Fan, it was nothing.
However, Lin Fan managed to raise the profit rate of the Liu family to 400% in just three days!
When Liu Qingping saw the stock trading records and the final investment return, he felt like he was dreaming.
Unbelievable!
It was also because of this that the Liu family was even more determined to build a good relationship with Lin Fan.
"So it's Lin Fan, haha! I've often heard Yuhang mention you. You're indeed a talented person!" Liu Qingping praised sincerely.
The CEOs who were walking into the hall heard the voices of Liu Qingping, Liu Yuhang, and Lin Fan.
They all turned their heads to look.
In the next moment, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, Zhang Zhou, the general manager of Imperial Hotel, Wang Fengyi, and the chairman of Qing Kun Group, Li Wannian, shouted.
"Mr. Lin!"
"Mr. Lin!"
"Mr. Lin!"
These three existences that many people looked up to hurriedly came before Lin Fan under everyone's puzzled gazes.
The chairman of Qing Kun Group, Li Wannian, said in an extremely respectful tone, "Mr. Lin, it's great to see you today. All the executives of our Qing Kun Group unanimously want to invite you to host this year's annual meeting and determine the dividends for this year."
Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, quickly followed up, "Mr. Lin, our Xiao Wu Wholesale City also wants to invite you to host the annual meeting and handle the important matters of the company."
The general manager of the Imperial Hotel, Wang Fengyi, said, "Mr. Lin, all the staff of the Imperial Hotel are looking forward to you hosting the annual meeting…"
"I won't be hosting the annual meetings," said Lin Fan. "As for the major matters of the various companies, as usual, you can handle them on your own.
"As for the dividends, it'll be the same as in previous years. They'll be distributed according to the profits, and my share will be directly transferred to my card."
If he really did as they said and hosted the annual meetings, then he had to deal with all kinds of important matters…
... 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙣𝙚𝒕
Would that not make him busy to death?
This was not the life that Lin Fan wanted.
Li Wannian, the chairman of Qing Kun Group, Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, and Wang Fengyi, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel, agreed helplessly.
This scene was witnessed by everyone present.
The three big shots were actually so respectful to a young man and even invited him to host the annual meetings and deal with the important matters of the companies?
What was the identity of this young man?
Finally, Wu Meng, who was standing at the side, could not help but ask, "This is…"
"Mr. Lin is the largest shareholder of our Qing Kun Group!" Li Wannian said.
"He's also the biggest shareholder of our Xiao Wu Wholesale City!" Zhang Zhou said.
"Mr. Lin is the owner of our Imperial Hotel," Wang Fengyi said.
Silence!
...
The entire hall fell silent!
Everyone looked at Lin Fan in shock.
One had to know…
Qing Kun Group was a star enterprise in Qing City with thousands of employees.
Xiao Wu Wholesale City was a listed company with a market value of ten billion yuan.
The Imperial Hotel was a landmark building in Jiangbei.
All of these belonged to Lin Fan?
This…
This…
Han Tian knew that Lin Fan was very rich and impressive. He was the landlord of the entire Washington Palace. He had casually bought a large condominium in Yi Ke City and owned the entire Coiling Dragon Villa Complex. He even owned Zhenhe Yuting!
However, at this moment, Han Tian was equally shocked.
Zhao Liping and Chen Dongxiang, who were standing at the side, opened their mouths wide.
Tu Dapeng buried his head very low, wishing he could find a hole to hide in.
He said that Lin Fan was lucky to meet big shots he would never see again in his life.
The result?
All of them were Lin Fan's subordinates!
What kind of stupid thing did he say?
At this moment, Wu Meng, who was also extremely shocked, finally came back to his senses.
He said in an excited tone, "Mr. Lin, you're here, but I didn't welcome you in time. It's my fault for not welcoming you well. Please forgive me, Mr. Lin."
Lin Fan said casually, "I'm here with my girlfriend to attend your son's wedding. It's normal that you didn't know. You don't have to mind it."
"M-Mr. Lin, please come in," Wu Meng said.
Lin Fan nodded his head and held Han Tian's slender waist. Under everyone's gaze, they slowly walked forward.
210 Buying a Car; Visiting the Homeroom Teacher!
Under Wu Meng's invitation, Lin Fan and Han Tian sat at Table 1.
Today was the wedding banquet, and the main character should be the groom, Wu Kai.
However, the main topic of discussion today was Lin Fan.
Many guests also toasted Lin Fan.
!
Regarding this…
Wu Meng and Wu Kai were not angry. On the contrary, they were extremely happy.
The wedding banquet lasted for three hours before it slowly came to an end.
Originally, Han Tian wanted to spend more time with Lin Fan in Qing City.
However, Lianjia's headquarters had called her several times to urge her to return to Jiangbei as soon as possible.
After Han Tian and Lin Fan were intimate for a while, they had no choice but to part.
At this moment, Lin Fan was standing by the road, waiting for a taxi.
However, he did not see any cars for a few minutes.
He could not help but look into the distance and happened to see a Mercedes-Benz shop.
"I won't have a car for the next few days," he muttered. "It's not convenient. I should just buy one."
After saying that, Lin Fan walked straight into the Mercedes-Benz shop.
"Welcome to Mercedes-Benz!" The saleswoman standing at the door smiled.
Then, she quickly poured a cup of green tea and continued, "Is there anything I can help you with?"
Service first, then work.
Lin Fan could not help but nod his head. The service of the Mercedes-Benz was pretty good.
"I'm here to buy a car. Do you have any cars available?" Lin Fan asked.
"We have the C series and E series cars here, and the GLA and GLC SUV over there…" The saleswoman pointed at the cars in the exhibition hall and said.
Lin Fan looked over and said, "Then I'll buy a GLC."
He had driven a lot of supercars, and now he felt tired when he saw the low cars.
Therefore, he chose the larger GLC.
"This is a GLC300L, the body…" the female salesperson said.
However, before she could finish her introduction, Lin Fan took out a bank card and interrupted her, "Swipe this card."
"Huh?" The saleswoman was stunned.
W-What was going on?
She had not introduced the car yet.
Could it be… Did he already know about the car?
However, she had not said the price yet.
Did he not need to know the price?
After a while, the saleswoman came back to her senses and said, "Uhh… The price of this car is 450,000 yuan. Including the purchase tax and insurance… the total is 520,000."
"Alright." Lin Fan nodded.
Alright?
Just one word?
Was he really not going to bargain?
The saleswoman took the bank card in a daze and turned around to walk toward the finance department.
"Wait!" Lin Fan said.
The saleswoman was delighted. 'Is he finally going to bargain?'
"I want two!" Lin Fan said.
Lin Fan had already given his parents five million.
However, they lived a frugal life and were still reluctant to spend the money.
His father still only had an old van to transport goods.
Since that was the case, he would buy him a new car.
Although the Mercedes-Benz GLC was cheaper, at least it was better than a broken van, right?
The saleswoman was speechless.
Beep!
When the bank card was swiped on the POS machine, a crisp sound was heard, and the receipt for 1.04 million appeared.
Lin Fan said, "I'll give you another 20,000. Help me get the license and insurance. Then, send the cars to my house."
After Lin Fan left the Mercedes-Benz shop, the saleswoman was still standing there in a daze.
From the time Lin Fan entered the shop to the time he swiped his card and left, excluding the time she poured tea for him, was it even three minutes?
Spending 1.04 million in three minutes to buy two GLCs?
The saleswoman felt like she was dreaming.
...
At this moment, a few colleagues came over and said, "Xiao Qian, congratulations on selling two GLCs. You have to treat me tonight!"
"That's right!"
"You must treat me!"
….
After Lin Fan walked out of the Mercedes-Benz shop, he saw a taxi.
"Go to Central Hospital," he said after some thought.
"Lin Fan, you're here?" Yang Wei said happily.
"How's the homeroom teacher?" Lin Fan nodded.
"He's much better now! It's all thanks to you!" Yang Wei said.
Yang Wei definitely said this from the bottom of her heart.
If it was not for Lin Fan, Chief Physician Li Quan would not have come all the way here to perform Li Yong's surgery.
...
It would have been impossible for Li Yong to stay in the VIP ward and receive the best recuperation.
Lin Fan looked at the bed. Indeed, Li Yong's complexion had improved a lot. He felt a little more at ease.
The two of them chatted for a while before Lin Fan spent ten million yuan to buy a bottle of Medical Water from the system.
"This is a type of medicine. When the homeroom teacher's body is slightly better, have him drink it. It'll help his body," Lin Fan said.
"Alright, thank you, Lin Fan," Yang Wei said.
Then, Lin Fan turned around and prepared to leave.
At this moment, Li Xinyue, who had not spoken much, said in a very clear voice, "Brother Lin Fan, you're studying at Jiangbei University, right?"
"Yes," Lin Fan replied.
Li Xinyue looked at Lin Fan with her big black eyes and said seriously, "I'll go to Jiangbei University in the future."
"Alright," Lin Fan said with a smile. "I'll wait for you at Jiangbei University."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out again.
When Lin Fan returned home, his parents were not back yet.
Hence, Lin Fan lay down on the sofa and started playing with his phone.
Not long after, he turned his attention to the system.
[Level: LV6]
[Level 6 reward: 50 yuan for every breath; 50 yuan for every second of sleep, and 50 yuan for every step taken. Rewards are distributed at 12 a.m. daily.]

Lin Fan muttered, "There's still a long way to go before the next level up. Forget it, let's see what I can get from the five silver packets I received two days ago. 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑜𝘳𝘨
"Open!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 800,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received one million yuan.]
[Ding! [Congratulations, you've obtained a one yuan critical hit card. After spending one yuan, you can get 100 million yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 100,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 400,000 yuan.]
Lin Fan sighed and said, "It seems like… it's all useless."
Then, he turned his attention to the sign-in system.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Brilliant KTV.]
"Brilliant KTV? This seems to be the biggest KTV chain in Qing City, right? Why are you giving this to me?" Lin Fan pursed his lips.
211 Continuing to Sign In; Meeting Huang De!
The next morning.
After Lin Fan woke up, he looked at his phone as usual.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,570,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Lin Fan casually swiped his phone for a while and muttered, "I got Brilliance KTV when I signed in yesterday. Let's see what I can get today."
!
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained 51% of Shunshun Express' shares.]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
One had to know…
Shunshun Express was the largest private express delivery company in Hua Nation. It was known for its speed and service. Its market value had reached more than 300 billion.
51% of the shares?
In other words, he had obtained more than 150 billion today!
Lin Fan played with his phone in bed for a while before getting up and washing up.
His parents had gone to the shop early in the morning. Lin Fan went out by himself and spent 20 yuan to buy a basket of steamed dumplings and a bowl of beef noodles.
Then, he spent another one yuan on a cup of soy milk.
At this moment, a notification rang out in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding! You've spent one yuan. Do you want to use the one yuan critical hit card?]
"Yes!" Lin Fan said casually.
Not long after, the phone in Lin Fan's pocket vibrated.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 100,000,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Even though Lin Fan was no longer interested in money, when he saw that he had received 100 million yuan, he could not help but smile.
After eating and drinking his fill, Lin Fan walked along the winding road casually.
Looking at the familiar scenery, he felt relaxed and reminisced.
"Lin Fan!"
A Volkswagen drove over from afar, and it suddenly stopped. Huang De poked his head out of the driver's seat.
Lin Fan had a good impression of Huang De.
Firstly, they had a good relationship when they were in school.
Secondly, Huang De was the one who informed him that their homeroom teacher was seriously ill.
A person who knew how to respect his teachers was worth befriending.
Moreover, that teacher had also taken care of Lin Fan.
"Huang De, are you going to work?" Lin Fan asked happily.
"That's right! Lin Fan, you're on vacation now, right? Do you want to come to my workplace to play? I'll bring you and your sister-in-law for lunch," Huang De said.
Lin Fan remembered that Huang De worked on Hushui Street as a government servant. He had never been there before.
Lin Fan was also curious about Huang De's girlfriend.
Plus, he really did not have anything to do later. b𝚎dn𝚘v𝚎𝚕.𝚘𝚛𝚐
"Alright," he replied.
Then, Lin Fan sat in the Volkswagen. The two of them chatted during the journey. It was quite relaxed and carefree.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at Hushui Street.
The office building on Hushui Street was relatively old. Fortunately, there were computers, desks, cabinets, and so on. It was also clean and tidy. It was quite comfortable here.
Huang De first poured a cup of tea for Lin Fan. Then, he prepared many newspapers and magazines for him. "Lin Fan, sit here for a while. I'm going to work first."
"Okay, you go ahead," Lin Fan said.
Many people always felt that government servants had a peaceful job. They drank a pot of tea, read the newspaper, and sat there for an entire day.
In reality?
After chatting with Lin Fan for a while, Huang De got busy in front of the computer, writing materials or organizing files. He was very serious and responsible.
As a result, when Huang De finished his cup of tea, he did not even have time to refill it.
In the blink of an eye, two hours had passed.
At this moment, a young woman with an oval face and fair skin walked over with a stack of documents.
She first poured a glass of water for Huang De and then said, "The leader wants you to write a summary of yesterday's meeting."
When Huang De saw her, it was as if all the fatigue in his body had disappeared. He said happily, "Alright, I'll summarize it later."
"Lin Fan, this is my girlfriend, Wang Xi."
Lin Fan stood up and said, "Sister-in-law is so beautiful. Hi, I'm Huang De's high school classmate."
Wang Xi was also very happy. "Wait a little longer, Huang De and I will treat you to lunch."
"Sure." Lin Fan smiled.
At this moment, a series of dull footsteps sounded from outside the corridor.
...
Then, Wang Hairui, who was wearing silver-rimmed glasses, walked over and said in a deep voice, "Wang Xi, there's a problem with a piece of information from Group Leader Liu. Go over and help deal with it."
When Wang Xi heard this, her face revealed a hint of reluctance. She said, "Dad, can't you let someone else handle it?"
"What are you so busy with? Hurry over!" Wang Hairui's face turned serious as he shouted.
"Alright then," Wang Xi said reluctantly.
After Wang Xi left, Wang Hairui looked at Huang De with a stern gaze and said, "Huang De, I know you like my daughter, but I… don't think you're suitable for her."
"Team Leader Wang, Xi Xi and I are truly in love," Huang De said.
Wang Hairui raised an eyebrow, looked around, and said in a low voice, "True love? Can you give her happiness? You're just a small team member now!"
"I…" Huang De opened his mouth, wanting to retort.
However, his voice seemed to be stuck in his throat, and he could not utter a single word.
That was right.
He was just a small team member.
...
He only earned 3,000 yuan per month.
If nothing unexpected happened, it would probably be the same after five years or even ten years…
How should he give Wang Xi happiness?
At this moment, footsteps suddenly sounded from outside.
"Greetings, Captain Song!" someone greeted respectfully.
Wang Hairui turned around slowly.
When he saw several men in white shirts, especially the bald man at the front, his pupils constricted slightly.
Song Wenwu, the captain of Qing City's Finance Department!
This leader actually came to their small street!
Therefore, Wang Hairui said in a very respectful tone, "Hello, Captain Song!"
When Song Wenwu heard the voice, he looked over and smiled, "Team Leader Wang, did I disturb your work?"
"How could that be? It's our honor to have you come to our street office to guide us," Wang Hairui said.
Song Wenwu nodded and was about to speak again.
In the next moment…
His entire expression turned solemn!
Song Wenwu suddenly saw Lin Fan!
He quickened his pace and walked forward.
Wang Hairui saw Song Wenwu walking toward him, and he was overwhelmed by his favor.
However, he did not dare to let Song Wenwu come to him personally.
Wang Hairui hastened his steps.
However…
Just as Wang Hairui was about to shake hands with Song Wenwu, Song Wenwu walked past him.
Finally, Song Wenwu arrived in front of Lin Fan. He bent down and extended his hands. He said in an excited and respectful tone, "Hello, Mr. Lin!"
212 Invitation; Everyone's Envy!
Even though Song Wenwu had only met Lin Fan once, that time left a deep impression on him, and he would never forget it.
That was because it was Lin Fan's grandfather's birthday celebration.
Song Wenwu still remembered clearly…
At that time, all the higher-ups in Qing City, Jiangbei, and Jiang province went to celebrate Lin Fan's grandfather's birthday. Even Old Master Qin Weiming went.
From this, one could see just how high Lin Fan's status was.
Song Wenwu had dreamed of meeting Lin Fan again, but he did not expect that he would be able to do so today.
Back then, Lin Fan had only casually glanced at Song Wenwu in the crowd.
However, he remembered him.
At this moment, Lin Fan saw that Song Wenwu had lowered himself and greeted him. He returned the greeting and stretched out his right hand, "Captain Song, right? Hello."
When Song Wenwu saw Lin Fan shaking hands with him, he was extremely excited. He quickly said, "Mr. Lin, you can call me Lil Song. Lil Song will do."
Their conversation was heard by everyone present, and their faces were filled with confusion and shock.
One had to know…
Song Wenwu was the captain of the city's Finance Department.
When had everyone ever seen him so respectful and fawning over someone?
Moreover, the other party was a young man who looked to be in his 20s!
It was unbelievable.
Lin Fan smiled, "You're about the same age as my dad. I'll just call you Old Song."
"Alright, alright," Song Wenwu said happily.
Then, Lin Fan pointed at Huang De and said, "This is my good friend Huang De. He works at Hushui Street. He's quite capable."
"Huang De is a diligent person with a strong working ability. I've heard of him long ago," Song Wenwu hurriedly said, "I didn't expect him to be your good friend."
It had to be said that Song Wenwu's speech was really good.
In reality?
Song Wenwu had seen Huang De before, but he did not know his name.
Lin Fan did not point it out. He continued, "Huang Degang told me that there are too few businesses in Qing City, causing the living standards of the people to be too poor.
"I think what he said makes sense, so I promised Huang De that I would help find a group of companies to invest in."
Then, he looked at his phone and said, "It's getting late. Old Song, please help me invite Leader Zhao Jiaqi. I'll invite Liu Qingping, the chairman of Liu Pharmaceuticals, Li Wannian, the chairman of Qing Kun Group, Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, and Wang Fengyi, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel, to have lunch together. What do you think?"
Liu Pharmaceuticals, Qing Kun Group, Xiao Wu Wholesale City, the Imperial Hotel … These were all large companies and enterprises worth tens of billions!
If he invited the CEOs of these companies to have a meal together and pulled in some investments, it would be a huge investment of hundreds of millions or even billions!
How many jobs would be created?
Just thinking about it made Song Wenwu's throat go dry.
"Yes, yes. I'll contact Leader Zhao right away," he said hurriedly.
After saying that, Song Wenwu quickly took out his phone and dialed Zhao Jiaqi's number.
Although Lin Fan had not called the CEOs yet and had only told him about it, Song Wenwu believed that he could call these people over.
He was Lin Fan!
Even if Lin Fan did not manage to get these big businessmen to come over, it did not matter.
Song Wenwu believed that Lin Fan just needed to say that he wanted to have a meal with them and those people would agree.
Leader Zhao would definitely accept the invitation too.
After a while, the call went through.
"Hello?" A dignified voice came from the phone.
"Hello, Leader. This is Song Wenwu." Song Wenwu said.
"Captain Song, what's the matter?" Zhao Jiaqi's tone softened a little when he answered the phone.
Song Wenwu said, "Mr. Lin Fan asked me to invite you to have a meal with Liu Qingping, the chairman of the Liu Pharmaceuticals, Li Wannian, the chairman of Qing Kun Group, Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, and Wang Fengyi, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel. Are you free this afternoon? "
"Oh?" Zhao Jiaqi's tone immediately became extremely high as he said, "Please tell Mr. Lin that I'm free. Also, if you haven't booked a hotel yet, I'll arrange for everyone to go to Qing City Grand Hotel."
In many big cities, the restaurants named after the city were all top-notch in terms of taste, scale, and class.
Obviously, the Qing City Grand Hotel was one of them.
Song Wenwu put the phone aside and whispered, "Mr. Lin, the leader asked if you've booked a restaurant? If you haven't, he'll arrange for everyone to go to Qing City Grand Hotel."
Lin Fan said, "Alright, then I'll have to trouble Leader Zhao."
Hence, Song Wenwu relayed Lin Fan's words to Leader Zhao.
At this point, the call ended.
After the meeting ended, Lin Fan took out his phone and dialed Liu Yuhang's number.
"Yuhang, are you and your dad still in Qing City?" Lin Fan asked.
"We're still here. We're going back to Jiangbei in the afternoon. Brother Lin Fan, what's the matter?"
Liu Yuhang seemed to have heard the seriousness in Lin Fan's tone, so he did not shout around like he usually did.
Lin Fan said, "That's great. I want to have lunch with you guys."
...
"Okay! My dad and I will definitely be there on time," Liu Yuhang said.
In fact, they had a lunch appointment with a medicinal herb merchant in Qing City.
That was why they wanted to return to Jiangbei in the afternoon.
However, how could a small medicinal herb merchant compare to Lin Fan?
Liu Yuhang did not even think about it and agreed with Lin Fan.
Then, Lin Fan dialed the numbers of Li Wannian, the chairman of Qing Kun Group, Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale Market, and Wang Fengyi, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel.
Like Liu Yuhang, the three of them agreed without hesitation.
After all, Lin Fan was their real boss.
If the boss invited his subordinate to a meal, he had to go even if the sky was raining knives.
Lin Fan said, "Alright, I've already arranged everything."
After four phone calls, he easily made an appointment with four CEOs of billion-dollar companies!
...
It was as if these four were soldiers waiting for orders at any time.
Instantly, Lin Fan's position in Song Wenwu's heart rose a lot.
Lin Fan did not care about it and said, "It's about time. Old Song, let's go."
"Alright, alright… We'll go over," Song Wenwu stuttered.
Lin Fan had just taken two steps forward when he realized that Huang De was not following him. He stopped and said, "Huang De, why aren't you coming?"
"What? I… Do I have to go over too?" Huang De said somewhat stiffly.
He was already so shocked by what was happening in front of him that he could not control himself.
"These big entrepreneurs are all gathering together because of your suggestion. If you don't go, who will?" Lin Fan smiled. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵
Everyone, including Song Wenwu, looked at Huang De with envy.
They understood that Lin Fan wanted to give all the credit to Huang De.
If the dinner later really reached an investment of hundreds of millions or even billions…
Huang De would have a meteoric rise!
213 Dinner; Huge Investment!
Qing City Grand Hotel was located in the urban area of Qing City. The decoration, the dishes, and the service were all very good.
Therefore, many people in Qing City loved it.
If one wanted to eat at Qing City Grand Hotel, one would usually need to make a reservation in advance.
Otherwise, one might have to wait for a while.
Today, Qing City Grand Hotel was as crowded as usual.
"Tsk!"
At this moment, a car with the car plate number A00001 slowly drove over.
The attendant standing at the door had a good eye and quickly went up to greet him.
"Leader Zhao, welcome, welcome!" the attendant said respectfully.
"Ask your manager to arrange a better private room. I'll be receiving important guests," Zhao Jiaqi said.
"Yes, I'll get our manager to come over now," the attendant hurriedly said.
After a while, Zhao Jiaqi was brought to Room 666 on the top floor of Qing City Grand Hotel by the manager.
This was a private room reserved by Qing City Grand Hotel. It was usually not open to the public and would only be used by some big shots.
Obviously, Zhao Jiaqi belonged to such a category.
A moment later, Lin Fan, Huang De, Song Wenwu, Liu Qingping, Liu Yuhang, Li Wannian, Zhang Zhou, Wang Fengyi, and the others entered the private room.
"Brother Lin, long time no see!" Zhao Jiaqi laughed heartily and gave Lin Fan a bear hug.
Seeing this…
Everyone present was slightly shocked.
Although they were all big entrepreneurs and had seen many leaders, most of the leaders were very serious and put on airs.
When had they ever seen a leader so close to someone?
Moreover, he was a young man in his 20s.
Lin Fan… He was even more amazing than they had imagined!
Lin Fan smiled, "That's right, Brother Zhao. Long time no see."
"Welcome, big businessmen, to Qing City. Please forgive me if I'm not being nice to you!" Zhao Jiaqi added.
"No, no…"
"It's my honor to have dinner with Leader Zhao."
Liu Qingping, Zhang Zhou, Wang Fengyi, and the others all replied.
"Leader Zhao, I'm not a guest in Qing City. I'm in my own home." Li Wannian smiled.
"Yes, yes!" Zhao Jiaqi said. "Then the two of us have to entertain these guests today!"
"No problem!" Li Wannian said.
Everyone was good at talking. The entire private room would burst into hearty laughter from time to time.
After chatting for a while, Lin Fan finally revealed the purpose of gathering everyone.
"General Manager Wang, you're an expert in hotels. What do you think about building a high-end hotel with a total investment of more than one billion in my hometown, Qing City?" Lin Fan asked.
The moment he said that, everyone immediately understood why Lin Fan had invited them here.
"Qing City has a large population, a beautiful environment, and no lack of middle-class people," Wang Fengyi said. "Even though we have our own Qing Kun Hotel, Wang Hao Hotel, and other mid-range hotels, we lack a high-end, landmark hotel. I think that building a high-end hotel in Qing City with a total investment of more than one billion has great prospects…
"If Qing City can provide a suitable location, I'm willing to apply to the company to build a landmark hotel in Qing City based on the Imperial Hotel in Jiangbei!"
Song Wenwu, who was sitting next to him, immediately revealed an excited expression.
This was just the beginning, and Lin Fan had already pulled in more than one billion yuan of investment?
This… Was this not too fast?
Zhao Jiaqi was also extremely happy and said, "We have a few plots of excellent empty land in the center of Qing City. We were going to auction them later. But as long as you're willing to build a landmark hotel, you can have your pick!"
Wang Fengyi smiled. "That's great. I'll thank Leader Zhao first!"
As he spoke, he raised his glass and downed it.
Zhao Jiaqi said, "No, no, I should be the one thanking you, Manager Wang. Thank you for your contribution to the development of Qing City!"
Therefore, he also drank a full glass of wine.
Then, Lin Fan said, "Mr. Zhang, I remember that Xiao Wu Wholesale City hasn't established a storage center in the central region yet, right? What do you think of Qing City?"
This was Lin Fan's first request as the largest shareholder. How could Zhang Zhou reject it?
Moreover, Xiao Wu Wholesale City really needed a storage hub.
"Qing City is less than 100 kilometers away from Jiangbei," Zhang Zhou said. "It's convenient to get there. If there's a large open space, it's definitely a good choice to build a central warehouse here."
Xiao Wu Wholesale City was a large company with a market value of tens of billions. Every year, it sent out hundreds of millions of express deliveries.
The importance of a storage hub could be imagined. The investment would probably be at least one billion!
Another billion-dollar investment!
Zhao Jiaqi said happily, "Chairman Zhang, we have a large amount of industrial land in the east of Qing City. Moreover, it's closer to Jiangbei and has a two-way four-lane first-class highway. It's definitely the best place to build a logistics hub."
"Thank you, Leader Zhao, for providing such a generous position. Let me toast you!" Zhang Zhou smiled.
As soon as he finished speaking, he drank a glass of wine.
...
Zhao Jiaqi also drank a glass.
Lin Fan looked at Liu Qingping and said, "Director Liu, what do you think of traditional medicine planting?"
Liu Qingping said, "Traditional medicine has the effect of consolidating the foundation and nurturing the body and mind. Modern people are paying more and more attention to the conditioning of traditional medicine… In fact, Liu Pharmaceuticals has always been interested in traditional medicine.
"Qing City is located on a plain, so there's plenty of sunshine and rain. Part of the reason why I came to Qing City this time is to contract a batch of land and build a medicine planting base.
"But… I wonder if Qing City will agree…"
"Qing City will definitely welcome you with open arms!" Zhao Jiaqi said excitedly.
"If that's the case, then our Liu Pharmaceuticals is willing to contract 10,000 mu of land for medicine cultivation," said Liu Qingping with a smile.
10,000 mu of land?
If each mu of land was calculated according to the income of 100,000 yuan …
10,000 mu meant that the annual income would be more than one billion!
Another huge investment of more than one billion!
...
"Thank you, Director Liu, for your support of Qing City. Thank you!" Zhao Jiaqi quickly raised his glass and said. "Besides, I believe that Qing City will not disappoint Director Liu!"
Then, Zhao Jiaqi raised his wine glass and downed it.
Liu Qingping also drank a glass.
Li Wannian smiled. "All of you have contributed so much to the development of Qing City. As the host, I can't be left behind!
"Our Qing City has always lacked a place for people to study… I've decided to build a large library with an investment of no less than 500 million!"
"Good! Haha! Thank you, Chairman Li!" Zhao Jiaqi was overjoyed and shouted.
A high-end hotel worth more than one billion yuan, a storage hub worth more than one billion yuan, a traditional medicine plantation worth more than one billion yuan, and a library worth more than 500 million yuan!
Just a dinner party had directly decided on a huge investment of 3.5 billion!
Terrifying!
At this moment, the phone in Lin Fan's pocket rang.
214 Great Contribution; Envy!
At this moment, Lin Fan was eating prawns, and it was not convenient for him to answer the call.
He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number.
Therefore, he pressed the speaker button.
"Hello, is this Mr. Lin?" A respectful voice came from the phone.
Lin Fan replied casually, "It's me. Who are you?"
"Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm the chairman of Shunshun Express Company, Wang Xiaodong," Wang Xiaodong said even more respectfully.
When Lin Fan heard that, he was not too surprised.
After all, he had already obtained 51% of Shunshun Express' shares today. It was normal for the chairman to call.
"Oh, Chairman Wang, what's the matter?" Lin Fan asked.
"Over the years, our Shunshun Express has developed rapidly, but we're also facing many problems…
"In order to better serve the public and thus occupy more market share, after many discussions and analysis, we, Shunshun Express, unanimously want to invest 50 billion to build an international logistics airport in the central region. Mr. Lin, what do you think?" Wang Xiaodong said carefully.
After all, Lin Fan was the biggest shareholder in the company. He had to get his approval for such an important matter.
Wang Xiaodong did not know Lin Fan well, so he was nervous.
Lin Fan's eyes moved slightly. "You guys have a good idea! By the way, have you decided on the location of the logistics airport?"
Hearing this, Wang Xiaodong heaved a sigh of relief.
As long as the major shareholder agreed, that was good news!
"It's still under investigation," Wang Xiaodong said.
"Mr. Lin, do you have any recommendations?"
"Jiang province's Qing City!" Lin Fan said.
"Qing City is located in the middle. Regardless of location, price, or transportation… All of them have good advantages, and it's my hometown. What do you think?"
The biggest shareholder had already said so.
How could Wang Xiaodong say no?
Moreover, he had indeed considered Qing City.
It was indeed a good place.
"Mr. Lin is right!" Wang Xiaodong said immediately. "Qing City is very suitable for an international logistics airport! Then we'll set up the logistics airport in Qing City!"
Silence!
The entire private room was silent!
Logistics airport?
Moreover, it was an international logistics airport with an investment of 50 billion yuan. Was it confirmed just like that?
This…
This was simply like a dream!
"Mr. Lin, I'll contact the leaders of Qing City later," Wang Weidong said.
Lin Fan said, "No need. Leader Zhao of Qing City is beside me. You can talk to him directly."
At this moment, Zhao Jiaqi finally reacted. He could not help but say in an excited voice, "Chairman Wang, I'm Zhao Jiaqi, the leader of Qing City.
"Here, on behalf of Qing City, I can assure you that we'll definitely use the greatest sincerity and the most favorable conditions so that Shunshun Express can smoothly build its international logistics airport here in Qing City."
Wang Xiaodong was also stunned.
He did not expect the leader of Qing City to be there.
However, when Wang Xiaodong thought about how Lin Fan had easily bought 51% of his company's shares, he felt a little relieved.
After all, it was normal for such a powerful person to be acquainted with leaders.
"Thank you, Leader Zhao," Wang Xiaodong said. "I'll bring a professional team to Qing City to investigate and decide on the specifics."
"Good, good!" Zhao Jiaqi said happily. "I look forward to the arrival of Chairman Wang and the experts!"
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Jiaqi's entire face was flushed red.
He looked as if he had just drunk a large bottle of wine.
It was no wonder.
Qing City was only a small fourth-tier city. There were not many big projects worth more than one billion yuan in the entire city.
What about today?
Today, they had one 500 million project, three billion-dollar projects, and even a 50 billion-dollar international logistics airport!
How many economic benefits would this bring to Qing City?
How many jobs would this create?
In fact, not only was Zhao Jiaqi happy, but Liu Qingping, Zhang Zhou, Li Wannian, Wang Fengyi, and the others were all very happy as well.
This was because Shunshun Express' international logistics airport being in Qing City would also be of some help to them.
At the same time, they had a deeper understanding of Lin Fan's power.
A single sentence was enough to decide the matter of the logistics airport!
Shunshun Express was probably one of Lin Fan's businesses!
...
Lin Fan said, "Oh right, Brother Zhao, let me introduce you. This is my good friend, Huang De. He works at Hushui Street.
"He's the reason why so many big companies have decided to invest in Qing City!
"Brother Zhao, don't forget to reward him according to his merits!"
How could Zhao Jiaqi not understand that Lin Fan was not someone who belonged to the system? He did not need these merits.
He wanted to give all the credit to Huang De.
"We'll never forget anyone who has made contributions!
"Huang De, you're not bad! You've won so many big projects for Qing City. After this, I'll report it to the higher authorities for you and let the whole city learn from you.
"You're overqualified to work in Hushui Street. Huang De, get ready… You'll shoulder heavy responsibilities after this!"
Song Wenwu, the captain of the Finance Department, looked at Huang De with envy.
Although Song Wenwu had guessed that this dinner would result in hundreds of millions or even hundreds of billions of dollars worth of investment, he was still not sure how it was going to happen.
He had never thought that it would be a library worth more than 500 million yuan, a hotel worth more than one billion yuan, a warehouse hub worth more than one billion yuan, a medicine plantation base worth more than one billion yuan, and an international logistics airport worth more than 50 billion yuan!
...
Any one of them was enough to be considered a great contribution!
Adding all of them together, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a great contribution!
All the credit belonged to Huang De!
Huang De's future was absolutely limitless!
The reason for this was that Huang De had a good friend—Lin Fan!
Then, Zhao Jiaqi raised his wine glass and said, "Huang De, let me toast you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he drank it all in one gulp.
Huang De was still shocked that Lin Fan and Zhao Jiaqi wanted to give him the credit. He could not extricate himself.
As a result, Zhao Jiaqi did not react in time when he toasted him.
Lin Fan smiled and patted Huang De's shoulder, "Brother Zhao is toasting you. Why are you still sitting there like a fool?"
"Ah… Ah… T-Thank you, Leader Zhao…" Only then did Huang De react. He picked up the bottle excitedly and poured himself a full glass of wine. Then, he poured it directly into his mouth.
"Good! Hahaha!" Zhao Jiaqi said happily.
The meal lasted for nearly three hours before it slowly came to an end.
Everyone, including Zhao Jiaqi, reeked of alcohol. They swayed and almost fell to the ground.
Of course, Lin Fan, who had Drinking Gentleman, was an exception. After he sent everyone to the car, he walked leisurely on the winding road alone.
215 Change; Let's Sing Together!
News of Huang De's involvement in the investment of several large projects with a total investment of more than 53.5 billion quickly spread to Hushui Street.
Wang Hairui's jaw dropped.
Then, he quickly put down everything he was doing and rushed to his daughter, Wang Xi, and asked, "Xi Xi, have you become Huang De's girlfriend?"
Wang Xi knew that her father was very opposed to her and Huang De being together, and he always wanted to matchmake her and Group Leader Liu.
!
In the past, she would still lie to her father.
Today, she finally mustered up the courage to say, "Yes, I am! I'm already dating Huang De!
"Dad, love is free nowadays. I'm happy being with the person I like. Just…"
Wang Xi had already prepared a lot of words. She wanted to use reason to convince her father and let him understand how indestructible her relationship with Huang De was.
However, before she could finish her sentence, Wang Hairui started shouting happily.
"Alright, hahaha! That's great!"
"Huh?" Wang Xi's voice could not help but falter when she was suddenly interrupted by her father.
She looked at her father's old face as he laughed so brightly. She could not help but reveal a puzzled expression.
This…
W-What was going on?
Could it be… that her father had gone mad because she was with Huang De?
Thinking of this, Wang Xi said worriedly, "Dad, are you alright?"
"Don't worry," Wang Hairui said happily. "I'm fine! Haha!"
Wang Xi thought to herself, 'Why is Dad so happy?"
Wang Hairui seemed to understand what his daughter was thinking and continued, "Daughter, do you know? Huang De has gotten several large projects worth more than one billion yuan today. There's even an international logistics airport worth more than 50 billion yuan!"
Wang Hairui's tone became even more arrogant.
When Wang Xi heard this, she could not help but widen her eyes, her face filled with surprise.
Even though Wang Xi was just an ordinary member of the Hushui Street Office, she knew very well what it meant to attract such a big project, especially to bring in an international logistics airport worth more than 50 billion yuan.
This was definitely… It was enough to completely change a person's life.
Wang Hairui laughed heartily. "Not bad! Daughter, you've found a good boyfriend! You have good taste!"
A smug smile appeared on Wang Xi's pretty face.
It was as if she was saying, 'Your daughter has always had good taste.'
Wang Hairui looked around and whispered, "Daughter, you and Huang De, have you ever…"
Wang Xi was not a little girl who was ignorant of the world. She naturally understood what her father was talking about. Her pretty face could not help but blush. She lowered her head and said, "Dad…"
Wang Hairui coughed and said, "How about this? Let Huang De come to our house for dinner tonight, and the two of us can have a few drinks."
"Alright…" Wang Xi made a mosquito-like sound.
….
Lin Fan had no idea about all of this.
At this moment, he was still walking casually on the winding road.
When he turned the corner, a group of students walked over from afar.
Among them, there was a slim and elegant girl with a youthful smile on her face.
"Lil Yao?" Lin Fan asked. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝘰𝑟𝑔
"Brother!" Lin Xiaoyao shouted happily.
Then, she introduced him to the three guys and two girls beside her. "Let me introduce you. This is my brother.
"Brother, they're all my classmates!
"The six of us made a bet. Whoever came in last place in the test will have to treat everyone to a karaoke session…
"There's no evening self-study today, so Zuo Jun invited us to go karaoke. Brother, you should come too!"
Karaoke?
With his sister and a few of her classmates?
Lin Fan was not interested at all.
"You should go with your classmates. I won't go."
Lin Xiaoyao hugged Lin Fan's arm and said, "Brother, let's go together! It's so late now. Aren't you afraid that your cute sister will be in danger?"
Lin Fan pinched Lin Xiaoyao's face and said, "Your face is so swollen now. I'm not worried, you won't be in danger."
"Brother!" Lin Xiaoyao protested.
Lin Fan smiled. "Alright, alright. I'll go with you."
"Yay!" Lin Xiaoyao cheered.
Hence, the original team of six now included Lin Fan.
Not long after, a very fashionable and high-end building with colorful neon lights appeared in everyone's sight.
Lin Fan looked at the words 'Brilliance KTV' and his face turned weird.
Brilliance KTV?
...
Was this not the KTV that he owned?
Singing in his own karaoke joint?
Lin Xiaoyao saw that Lin Fan was standing still and thought that he was shocked by the grandeur of Brilliance KTV. She could not help but say proudly, "Brother, how is it? This karaoke joint isn't any worse than the ones in Jiangbei, right?"
Was this a compliment to his karaoke joint?
Lin Fan smiled and nodded. "Not bad."
Lin Xiaoyao could not help but feel even happier.
When the group walked into Brilliance KTV, they were greeted by a fragrant aroma that made them feel relaxed and comfortable.
Zuo Jun, who was wearing black-rimmed glasses, said straightforwardly, "Today, it's my treat! Later, don't stand on ceremony!"
"You don't have to pay today," said Lin Fan.
After all, why would they need money to sing in his own karaoke joint?
However, Zuo Jun thought that Lin Fan thought that he was still studying, which was why he did not want him to pay.
...
Hence, he said, "Brother Lin, I did badly this time. It's only right for me to treat you. Don't fight with me."
Lin Fan smiled but did not say anything.
Soon, an attendant came up to them.
"Welcome to Brilliance KTV. Do you have a reserved room?"
"We didn't make a reservation," said Zuo Jun. "Just get us a small room."
"Sorry, our shop is full," said the attendant apologetically.
"What about a middle-sized room?" Zuo Jun asked.
"There's one more middle-sized room," the attendant replied.
"Alright, then we'll take a medium-sized room," said Zuo Jun.
Brilliance KTV was indeed the best karaoke joint in Qing City.
Even though it was an ordinary medium-sized room, the soft sofa and the interior were very good. The overall feeling was very good.
Lin Fan could not help but nod his head.
"If you spend more than 400 yuan in our KTV's supermarket, you can sing for three hours for free," the attendant said.
The room fee was 100 to 200 yuan, and singing also required customers to purchase food and drinks.
Now, as long as they bought some things, they could sing for free. It was a very attractive deal.
"Let's go to the supermarket together," Zuo Jun said. "Take whatever you want!"
216 You Don't Have to Pay for the Broken Bottle of Liquor
Brilliance KTV's internal supermarket had a grand layout and a wide variety of snacks, drinks, and fruits… It had everything!
Lin Fan, Lin Xiaoyao, and the others were holding small baskets and choosing happily.
At this moment, a girl with two ponytails pointed at a bottle of Louis XIII and said, "Look at this bottle of liquor. The packaging is so special!
"Wow! My idol drank this liquor in a TV show!" another short-haired girl said excitedly.
As she spoke, she could not help but reach out and take Louis XIII off the shelf.
However, she accidentally dropped the liquor on the floor.
Crash!
Instantly, the liquor flowed all over the ground. The rich fragrance of the liquor spread throughout the supermarket.
A young woman dressed in white saw this and said, "The bottle is broken. This bottle of liquor doesn't look cheap! You'll have to pay for it!"
"This is Louis XIII. This bottle is probably worth at least 20,000 to 30,000." The man beside the woman gloated.
When the short-haired girl heard this, her face immediately turned pale.
20,000 to 30,000 yuan?
She was already very flustered when she accidentally broke the liquor.
After hearing that it cost that much, she was even more flustered.
How could she have so much money to compensate?
At this moment, an attendant also heard the noise and quickly walked over.
When he saw the broken bottle and spilled liquor on the ground, he immediately stared at the short-haired girl as if he was afraid that she would run away.
Then, he pointed at the sign beside him that read, 'If something is damaged, compensate according to the price'.
"This is Louis XIII," he said. "The price is 28,888 yuan."
Hearing this, the short-haired girl's face turned even paler, and her entire body began to tremble.
28,888 yuan?
She could not afford it at all!
The man and woman who were not far away had mocking expressions on their faces when they saw this scene.
"This girl should still be a student. This is going to be a good show." The woman sneered.
The attendant seemed to have seen through the girl's identity and said, "Hurry up and ask your parents to bring the money!"
Call her parents?
This was a compensation of 28,888 yuan!
Her parents would definitely beat her to death.
The short-haired girl began to tear up.
At this moment, there was the sound of footsteps outside.
The manager, Xu Song, who was wearing a suit and tie, also heard the commotion and walked over in large strides.
The attendants who passed by greeted respectfully, "Hello, Manager Xu."
Xu Song merely nodded his head lightly as a form of greeting.
The attendant in the supermarket said, "Manager Xu, this girl broke our Louis XIII. We want her to compensate us now."
Xu Song nodded again. In the next moment…
His pupils constricted.
He suddenly saw Lin Fan standing beside the girl.
Yesterday, Xu Song found out that Brilliance KTV had been transferred to a person called Lin Fan.
That night, Xu Song could not sleep all night.
It was because he did not know what kind of person his new boss was and whether he was easy to get along with.
Would the new boss suddenly fire him?
Therefore, Xu Song had been thinking about how he could meet this new boss and please him.
Xu Song did not expect to meet the new boss today.
Xu Song took a few quick steps and rushed in front of Lin Fan. He bent down and said in a respectful tone, "Hello, Mr. Lin."
"Manager Xu?" Lin Fan replied. "Hello."
After a pause, he pointed at the short-haired girl and said, "This is my sister's classmate. She accidentally broke a bottle of liquor in the supermarket."
She broke a bottle of liquor in the supermarket?
The boss did not mention it was his supermarket.
It seemed like… the boss did not want to expose himself for the time being.
Xu Song's eyes turned slightly, and he looked at the short-haired girl's frightened expression.
Then, he said in a concerned tone, "Student, are you alright?
"This is just a fake bottle of liquor in our shop. It's not the real Louis XIII. It's not worth much, so you don't have to pay for it.
"You weren't hurt by the broken bottle, were you?"
As Xu Song spoke, he stole a glance at Lin Fan. When he saw Lin Fan nodding his head slightly, Xu Song could not help but be delighted.
...
His handling was indeed correct!
After the short-haired girl heard Xu Song's words, the worry and fear on her face immediately dissipated.
However, she was still a little nervous. "I really don't need to pay?"
As she spoke, she looked at the attendant carefully.
At this moment, the attendant was also a little stunned by Xu Song's words.
Fake Louis XIII wine?
How was this possible?
Back then, he and another attendant had personally driven to the store to bring it back!
Why did the manager say that?
However, Xu Song completely ignored his reaction and said with a stern expression, "This is fake, right?"
The attendant was so frightened that he became serious and quickly said, "Yes, you don't have to pay."
...
Then, Xu Song said to the short-haired girl in a very calm tone, "Did you hear that?"
The short-haired girl nodded repeatedly, and her entire person gradually relaxed.
The young woman in white beside them curled her lips and said, "What? It's actually fake!"
"Sigh, there's no good show to watch," the man said.
After the two of them finished speaking, they took the snacks they had bought and walked out in disappointment.
Zuo Jun, the girl with two ponytails, Lin Xiaoyao, and the others all heaved a sigh of relief.
When they returned to the karaoke room, they began to discuss.
"I was really scared to death just now," the girl with ponytails said.
"Me too!" a boy said.
"28,888 yuan for a bottle of liquor? Heavens! Sell me," Zuo Jun said.
"Fortunately, it was fake. Otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do today," the short-haired girl said.
"However, the manager is quite good. If it was someone with a bad heart, they might have insisted that it was real," the girl with the ponytails said. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑒𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"That's right. In the future, if we want to sing, let's come to Brilliance KTV!" A boy suggested.
Lin Xiaoyao tried to smooth things over. "Alright, alright. Just be more careful next time. Let's sing quickly. The timer has already started."
Thus, Lin Xiaoyao chose a song first and sang loudly with the short-haired girl.
Lin Fan listened to their song and frowned.
If one had to comment on it, it was like the wailing of ghosts and the howling of wolves.
However, it had to be said that after a series of wails and howls, everyone's mood was much better. It was as if they had immediately forgotten all the unhappiness.
The atmosphere in the private room was extremely lively.
Everyone ran to the screen and began to choose their favorite song, ready to roar.
At this moment, there was a light knock on the door.
After a while, Xu Song slowly pushed open the door of the private room.
When the girl with the ponytails, the short-haired girl, and the others saw him again, their hearts tightened again.
They thought to themselves, 'Could it be that this manager is going back on his word? Will he say that the broken bottle of liquor isn't fake?
217 Sing Another Song; Break Another Bottle of Louis XIII!
The music stopped temporarily…
Xu Song slowly walked in amidst the tense situation.
"I'm sorry for disturbing everyone's session," Xu Song apologized.
"Our Brilliance KTV has prepared some things as compensation to make up for the shock that the student experienced after breaking the bottle of Louis XIII. I hope you don't mind."
Then, two attendants pushed in two large carts of food.
There were fresh fruits, good snacks, delicious drinks, and alcohol…
Soon, the table in the private room was completely filled with food.
"I hope everyone can have a good time at Brilliance KTV. Also, if you need anything else, feel free to tell us at any time," said Xu Song.
After saying that, he slowly left the private room with the two attendants.
The people in the room first looked at the snacks on the table and then looked at each other.
In the next moment, a wave of enthusiastic cheers erupted.
"Heavens!"
"So many snacks!"
"So many fruits!"
"Look, there are even cherries! They're so sweet!"
"The beef jerky tastes so good!"
"Breaking the bottle was worth it. It was really worth it!"
"Go smash another bottle!"
…
Everyone was eating snacks and fruits while shouting excitedly. The atmosphere in the entire private room was extremely lively.
In order to celebrate the delicious food, they sang even louder.
The wails of ghosts and wolves were deafening.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoyao realized that Lin Fan was not singing. She could not help but urge him, "Brother, come and sing too!
"Could it be that you're afraid that your singing won't be good, so you're shy?"
Lin Fan rolled his eyes at her and said, "I'm afraid that after I sing, you guys won't have the intention to sing anymore."
After all, Lin Fan was someone with Heavenly Voice.
His voice was extremely pleasant to the ears and could definitely form a sharp contrast with everyone present. If he were to sing, they would probably doubt their lives.
"Don't worry, our ears can handle it! Feel free to howl!" Lin Xiaoyao smiled.
Obviously, she thought that Lin Fan was saying that his singing was terrible.
Therefore, it would affect everyone's ears.
Lin Fan smiled and shook his head.
At this moment, the music started playing. The prelude to Summer Wind reverberated in the private room.
Lin Xiaoyao took the microphone and handed it to Lin Fan. "Brother, you definitely know how to sing this song."
Just as Lin Xiaoyao said, Lin Fan could sing this song.
Lin Fan looked at Lin Xiaoyao's determined eyes and took the microphone with a smile.
Then, he slowly opened his mouth.
"The wind in July is so lazy that even the clouds are getting hot.
"Not long after, the sky became stuffy and rain fell behind the clouds…"
Lin Fan's voice was low and gentle.
The few people who were eating snacks, drinking, and chatting all stopped what they were doing and looked at Lin Fan with infatuated eyes.
The continuous classes made them feel heavy and tired. The tall campus walls were like cages, imprisoning their bodies and souls.
However, when they heard Lin Fan's voice, they felt as if a gentle breeze had brushed past their faces. It was as if they had been given a pair of pure white wings, allowing their bodies and souls to soar freely under the blue sky.
This was a relaxed and carefree feeling that they had never felt before, a kind of enjoyment that came from the soul!
"The summer wind is blowing warmly, passing through my hair and ears.
"You and my summer, the wind gently said."
Finally, the song ended.
The entire private room was silent for a moment before it suddenly erupted into enthusiastic cheers.
"It's so good!"
"Brother Lin, you're way too good at singing!"
"Your voice is simply too great!"
Waves of praise rose and fell.
"Brother, when did you become such a good singer?" Lin Xiaoyao asked excitedly.
"I've always been good at singing," Lin Fan said. "You just never realized it."
"Really?" Lin Xiaoyao was a little confused.
...
At this moment, the prelude to the next song began to play in the private room.
"It's Fairy Tale! My favorite song is Fairy Tale. Brother, quickly sing this song," Lin Xiaoyao shouted.
The others echoed loudly.
"Brother Lin Fan, you'll sound so good singing this song."
"I beg Brother Lin Fan to sing Fairy Tale."
Seeing so many requests, Lin Fan could not reject them.
"I forgot how long it has been since I heard you tell me your favorite story.
"I thought about it for a long time. I started to panic. Did I do something wrong again…"
Initially, there was still some noise. However, after Lin Fan started singing, it instantly quieted down.
Only Lin Fan's crisp voice echoed in the room.
At the same time, everyone's bodies swayed along with the rhythm of the song.
...
In everyone's eyes, it was as if they were not in a karaoke room at all but in a grand opera house.
Lin Fan was not sitting on the sofa and singing. Instead, he was wearing a black suit and playing a beautiful piano song on a high-end stage.
A flashy stage light shone down and landed on Lin Fan's body, causing his body to emit a dazzling light.
At this moment, Lin Fan seemed to be the only light in the world!
It was so fascinating.
"You have to believe, believe that we'll be like in fairy tales. We'll have our happy ending. We'll write our ending together."
After the song ended, everyone was stunned.
The girl with two ponytails and the short-haired girl looked at Lin Fan with bright eyes.
Lin Xiaoyao was the first to shout.
"Brother, I love you so much!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she threw herself into Lin Fan's embrace. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝘦𝘵
Lin Fan reminded her, "We're siblings!"
As he spoke, he was about to push Lin Xiaoyao to the side.
However, Lin Xiaoyao was like a sticky candy. She hugged Lin Fan tightly and could not be pushed away.
"Continue, Brother! Continue singing!" Lin Xiaoyao shouted.
"I've already sung two songs in a row," Lin Fan said. "You and your classmates can sing now."
If Lin Fan had not sung, they could have still continued to wail.
However, after hearing Lin Fan's heavenly voice, how could they still have the face to wail and howl?
"Brother Lin, please continue singing."
"Another song!"
…
Lin Fan waved his hand. "My throat can't take it anymore. I need to rest. You guys can sing."
After all, this was a gathering between Lin Xiaoyao and her classmates. It would be inappropriate for him to keep singing.
When Lin Xiaoyao and the others heard this, they could only pick up the microphones and start howling again.
…
The singing lasted for a full three hours before everyone walked out with their stomachs full of snacks and their faces plastered with smiles.
When they passed by the supermarket…
Bang!
The young woman in white dropped a bottle of Louis XIII on the ground.
Glass shards immediately shattered on the ground, and the rich aroma of the liquor continued to spread.
218 Compensate According to the Price; My Shop!
The young woman in white and the man by her side had brought a large group of friends to sing today.
As a result, the snacks that they bought earlier were still not enough.
Thus, they went to the supermarket again.
When the young woman arrived at the liquor section, she saw a bottle of Louis XIII.
!
Hence, she casually picked it up and sized it up curiously.
After all, this was a famous bottle of liquor that could only be seen in movies and TV shows.
However, the young woman was careless and dropped the bottle on the ground. The bottle shattered and the liquor flowed out.
Seeing this…
The young woman and the man did not pay much attention to it.
It was because they knew that this was just a fake bottle. They did not have to pay for it.
At this moment, an attendant walked over quickly.
When he saw Louis XIII on the ground, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He said seriously, "Our KTV has a rule that if you damage something, you have to compensate according to the price.
"This bottle of Louis XIII is 28,888 yuan… Please pay up."
As he spoke, he waved his hand in the distance, and two attendants came over.
Obviously, they were worried that these people would refuse to compensate or even cause trouble.
"This is fake. Do you think we don't know?" 28,888 yuan? Do you think we're stupid?"
The man said, "It's good enough we're not suing you for fraud. You still want us to compensate you?"
"Fake?" The attendant said coldly, "Who says this is fake? We have a detailed list of all the alcohol we've purchased."
Then, he took out a stack of invoices.
Seeing this…
The faces of the man and woman stiffened. The bottle of Louis XIII was real?
Would they not have to pay 28,888 yuan, then?
However, the young woman still straightened her neck and said, "Who knows if the invoice is fake or not?"
"You can take the bottle and the liquor to have them tested! But now, you must compensate us according to the price," the attendant said seriously.
At this moment, Lin Fan and the others happened to pass by the entrance of the supermarket.
"Then why didn't they have to pay after they broke a bottle?" the young woman asked.
Manager Xu Song had already told the attendant that Lin Fan was the new boss of Brilliance KTV.
Hence, the waiter sneered in his heart. 'How can you compare to Mr. Lin? Even if Mr. Lin were to tear down the entire Brilliance KTV, there would be no problem.'
Lin Xiaoyao, the short-haired girl, the girl with ponytails, Zuo Jun, and the others also saw what was happening in the supermarket. They all looked puzzled.
What was going on?
Was the Louis XIII in the supermarket not fake?
"Please compensate us according to the price!" the attendant continued to speak to the young woman.
As they spoke, several attendants took two steps forward and surrounded the young woman and the man.
…
Lin Xiaoyao and the others looked at the situation in the supermarket with some confusion before continuing to walk forward.
When they arrived, Manager Xu Song and several attendants were already standing on both sides of the hall like tree stumps. They bowed and said in an extremely respectful tone, "Please come again next time."
Lin Xiaoyao, the short-haired girl, and the girl with ponytails had never been treated like this before.
"As expected of the best KTV in Qing City! The service is really good."
Zuo Jun went to the service desk and prepared to pay.
However, the cashier said, "Due to the disturbance caused to your companion during your time here, your expenses are all covered."
Just like that…
Everyone slowly walked out of the KTV with their heads full of confusion.
"Brother, don't you think it's strange? We didn't have to pay after breaking the Louis XIII, but that woman has to pay 28,888 yuan after breaking it," Lin Xiaoyao said.
Lin Fan smiled. "What's so strange about that? Have you ever heard of someone breaking something in their own house and still needing to compensate?"
"Huh?" Lin Xiaoyao was even more confused.
"Brilliance KTV is my shop," said Lin Fan with a smile.
Silence!
The entire scene suddenly fell silent!
Lin Xiaoyao, the short-haired girl, the girl with ponytails, and the others all stared at Lin Fan in shock.
"Brother… You mean…" Lin Xiaoyao stuttered.
"I bought Brilliance KTV a while ago," Lin Fan said.
At this moment…
Everyone finally understood why not only did the short-haired girl not have to compensate for breaking Louis XIII, but the manager also had to give them a lot of delicious food.
Why did the manager and attendants line up to send them off when they left?
...
In the end, when Zuo Jun wanted to pay the bill, the cashier said it was free!
"My family has a KTV!" Lin Xiaoyao exclaimed excitedly. "Brother, I love you so much!"
Lin Fan said seriously, "We're siblings!"
Since Lin Xiaoyao and the others still had classes the next day, Lin Fan parted ways with them when they reached a crossroad.
…
The next day.
After Lin Fan woke up, he looked at his phone. A message had appeared on the screen.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,670,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Lin Fan lay on the bed and played with his phone for a while.
"Let's complete today's sign-in first," Lin Fan muttered.
"Sign in!"
...
[Ding! Congratulations on signing in successfully. You've received ten million yuan.]
"My luck is bad today."
Lin Fan sighed helplessly. Then, he slowly got up and washed up.
At this moment, the phone in Lin Fan's pocket rang.
He looked at the caller ID and realized that it was a call from the Mercedes-Benz shop.
"Hello, Mr. Lin. Both your cars' license plates and insurance have been completed. May I know where to send the cars?" The sweet voice of the female salesperson came from the phone.
"Do you know Fourth Street?" Lin Fan asked.
"In South Side?" the saleswoman asked.
"That's right. Just drive the two cars to Ordinary Clothing Store on Fourth Street," Lin Fan said.
"Alright," the saleswoman said.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan first ate breakfast nearby before walking toward Ordinary Clothing Store.
"Tsk!"
At this moment, two brand-new GLCs with big red flowers had already arrived at the entrance of the clothing store.
Many of the surrounding merchants started discussing after seeing this.
"Two Benz!"
"And they're new!"
"Old Lin has a big client!"
Lin Tao, who was tidying up his clothes in the shop, could not help but poke his head out with a look of anticipation on his face.
At this moment, two saleswomen in business attire walked out of the GLCs.
However, they had no intention of going into Ordinary Clothing Store to buy clothes. Instead, they stood quietly at the door as if they were waiting for someone.
"What's the matter?" Lin Tao asked.
The oval-faced saleswoman thought that Lin Tao felt that the cars were affecting his business, so she quickly explained, "We're waiting for someone. We'll drive the cars away later." 𝑏𝑒𝑑𝘯𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝘮
"You guys are here?" Lin Fan walked over from afar and said.
"Mr. Lin!" The oval-faced saleswoman said happily, "You can check the appearance and configuration. If there's no problem, you can sign your name here."
Lin Fan took a casual glance at the cars, then picked up a pen and paper to quickly sign his name.
After all, they were just two cheap cars worth 500,000 yuan.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"It's not hard. This is what we should do," the saleswoman said.
Standing at the side, Lin Tao, who had not spoken for a long time, could not help but ask, "Son, this is…"
"Oh, I bought a car when I passed by a shop two days ago. Then, I bought one for you too," Lin Fan said.
"You bought one for me too?" Lin Tao could not help but widen his eyes. Then, he slowly walked to the side of the Mercedes-Benz GLC and gently stroked it.

After lunch, Lin Fan's phone vibrated.
12 pm!
The red packets were here!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received three yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 1,999 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 20,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Zhenghua Building.]
Today, Lin Fan received a total of 45,834 yuan and a building.
"Zhenghua Building? It seems to be one of the few office buildings in Qing City, right? A skyscraper should be worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions, right? Today's red packet is barely okay."
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang.
He looked at the caller ID and realized that it was Huang De.
"Lin Fan, thank you."
As soon as the call connected, Huang De's extremely sincere voice came from the phone.
Originally, Huang De might have had to work at the bottom level of the Hushui Street Office for the rest of his life. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚
He might even be forced to separate from his girlfriend, Wang Xi.
However, because of Lin Fan… everything changed drastically.
Lin Fan said, "That's just a small matter. Don't worry about it. By the way, how are you and Wang Xi?"
"Her father has already agreed to us being in a relationship. If nothing goes wrong, Wang Xi and I will probably get married next year. When that time comes, Lin Fan, you must come if you have the time." Huang De said. "Alright!" Lin Fan replied.
The two of them chatted for a while before hanging up.
For a while, Lin Fan's life was very dull.
He ate, played with his phone, strolled, and slept…
Although it was dull, it was also very relaxed and comfortable.
When Lin Xiaoyao returned home for the holidays, the family returned to their hometown, Shanwu Village.
At the same time, the sound of firecrackers gradually rang out.
Lin Fan and his grandparents sat around the big round table, eating hot dumplings. They were happy.
It was the first day of the new year.
There was an unwritten rule in Shanwu Village. The first thing in the morning, the villagers would write down blessings and bring them to the family with the highest status in the village and wish the other party a happy new year.
It was not that the villagers were fawning over the powerful but that they wanted to take advantage of the festive New Year to bask in the other party's good fortune.
The families who received the blessings would prepare black tea for the villagers, symbolizing that everyone would be prosperous in the new year.
When Lin Fan's grandfather, Lin Liqiang, opened the door, a large group of villagers were waiting at the door with their blessings.
Moreover, they all began to give their blessings.
"Happy New Year!"
"Old Master Lin, Happy New Year!"
"Old Master Lin, we're here to give you our blessings!"
Seeing this…
Lin Liqiang said happily, "Thank you, thank you, everyone. Quick, please come in!
"Lin Tao, Weixue, hurry up and get the stools and pour some black tea!"
When Lin Tao and Dai Weixue heard his voice, they quickly walked out.
When they saw so many villagers, they were also shocked. Then, they quickly moved the stools and poured black tea.
However, they had only moved a few stools and poured a few cups of black tea when a hearty voice sounded from outside.
"Old Master Lin, we're here to bring you blessings!"
"Old Master Lin, happy new year!"
Following that, another large group of villagers walked in with their blessings.
Lin Liqiang said happily again, "Hahaha! Thank you, thank you, everyone! Happy New Year!"
"Lin Tao, Weixue, hurry up and get some chairs for the uncles and pour them tea!"
When Lin Tao and Dai Weixue saw that so many people had arrived, they were completely overwhelmed.
In addition, there were not enough stools and boiling water at home.
"Lil Fan, Lil Yao," they shouted into their rooms. "Go find the uncles next door and get some stools. Get some hot water too."
"Alright!" Lin Fan and Lin Xiaoyao replied in unison.
When they came back with stools and boiling water, another group of people walked in with blessings.
"Lil Fan, Lil Yao," Lin Tao called out. "Hurry up and ask our guests to sit down.
Then, come and pour them some black tea!"
Instantly, the whole family was extremely busy.
...
The entire courtyard was soon filled with people.
Everyone was holding a cup of hot black tea in their hands and chatting with each other. It was extremely lively.
Lin Liqiang looked at the pile of blessings on the table and the dense crowd in the courtyard. He listened to the blessings that sounded from time to time in his ears. A smile lit up his wrinkled, old face.
Almost every family in the village had sent their family members to come and send him their blessings and celebrate the new year with his family. This was something that had never happened before!
At this moment, a BMW 740LI drove over from afar.
Zhou Chengjun, the general manager of Yinshan Mall, brought a lot of gifts and cupped his hands from afar. "Old Master Lin, Old Master Lin, Happy New Year!"
The last time Lin Liqiang celebrated his birthday, many villagers had seen Zhou Chengjun and knew that he was the manager of Qing City's Yinshan Mall.
At this moment, after seeing him again, the villagers began to discuss enthusiastically.
"The Lin family is amazing! Manager Zhou, you're here so early to pay your New Year's greetings."
"Yeah, it's really enviable!"
"If there's a big shot like Manager Zhou who comes to visit me one day, that'll be great!"
...
"That's very simple. Just head off to dreamland!"
"You bastard!"
While the villagers were discussing, a large number of Audis drove over in an orderly manner from afar like a long dragon.
When some villagers saw these cars, they could not help but shout in surprise.
"Look! So many Audis! The main point is that their license plates are K00001, K00002, K00003…"
"Oh my God!"
"Could it be that the leaders of Qing City…"
As if to verify everyone's guess, the leaders of Qing City, including the captain of the Finance Department, the captain of the Investigation Department, and the captain of the Commerce Department, walked over.
A large group of big shots who often appeared in the news of Qing City walked over with boxes of Qing City's specialties.
When they walked in front of Lin Liqiang, Lin Tao, Lin Fan, and the rest, they cupped their hands together and bowed, "I wish Old Master Lin a happy new year!" The leaders of Qing City came to visit him early in the morning on the first day of the new year. What kind of honor was this?
Lin Liqiang's entire old face was already filled with a smile as he said excitedly, "Leaders, this can't be done. This can't be done!"
As he spoke, he went forward to help Zhao Jiaqi. "Old Master Lin, please accept it!" Zhao Jiaqi laughed.
"You probably don't know yet, right? Brother Lin Fan has invested in multiple projects in Qing City, including an international logistics airport, a hotel, a library, a medicinal herb base, and a storage center… It has brought us more than 50 billion yuan of investments!
"This will create tens of thousands of jobs for Qing City!"
In fact, this was also the reason why Zhao Jiaqi had brought the leaders of Qing City to visit Lin Fan's family early in the morning.
Otherwise, even if he wanted to deepen his relationship with Lin Fan, he would not be able to find a good reason..
Chapter 220: New Year; Back to School!
Translator: Endless Fantasy Translation Editor: Endless Fantasy Translation
When the surrounding villagers heard Zhao Jiaqi's words, their mouths were wide open, and their faces were filled with horror.
An international logistics airport, a hotel, a library, a medicinal herb base, a storage center… A total investment of more than 50 billion!
50 billion?
How much money was that?
In the eyes of the villagers, five million was already a lot.
50 billion was completely beyond their imagination!
Lin Tao and Dai Weixue looked at Lin Fan in shock.
Although they already knew that their son was amazing, the logistics airport and the 50 billion still surprised them.
Lin Liqiang was the first to react. He laughed heartily and said, "Leaders, please take a seat and have some black tea! The place is rather simple, please don't mind it.' 11 "Old Master Lin, you're too polite." Zhao Jiaqi smiled. "You might not know, but my hometown is in the mountains of Yan City. Compared to my hometown, your place is already considered a wealthy family's compound!"
"Is that so? Hahaha!" Lin Liqiang was even happier.
It had to be said that Zhao Jiaqi was indeed the leader of Qing City. With just a few words, the atmosphere at the scene became even more lively and enthusiastic.
About an hour later, the villagers and the leaders of Qing City slowly left the Lin family.
Lin Liqiang carefully moved the written blessings and the Qing City's specialties into the house like precious treasures.
Lin Tao asked, "Lin Fan, the leader just said that you invested 50 billion in the logistics airport and hotel in Qing City?"
Lin Fan replied, "Yeah. Dad, didn't you ask me to invest in Qing City when the conditions allow?"
Lin Tao could not help but freeze.
Yes.
He had said this before.
'But isn't your investment a little too much?' 50 billion?
Lin Fan seemed to have noticed the change in his father's expression. He smiled and said, "Dad, don't worry. These investments are nothing to me."
Lin Fan was definitely not bragging.
One had to know…
Lin Fan had 5% shares of Penguin and 5% shares of Little Tanuki, which amounted to 500 billion yuan.
In addition to his shares in LV and Gucci, the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex, and the Global Financial Building…
Now, his total net worth was already approaching trillions.
50 billion was indeed nothing in front of trillions.
This year's New Year celebration was the most lively year for the Lin family in Shanwu Village.
Almost every day, people came to congratulate them. Countless gifts were piled up in the Lin family's house.
The smile on Lin Liqiang's face almost never faded.
This situation continued until the 15th day of the first month.
The family gathered around the table and ate the glutinous rice balls.
Lin Fan's phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was from the dean of the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University, Hu Chuan.
"Dean Hu, what's the matter?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
"It's about time for school to start, no? Your home is so far away from Jiangbei. It's not safe for you to travel alone… Therefore, we teachers are here to pick you up and fetch you to school," Hu Chuan said.
Was Qing City far from Jiangbei?
It was less than 100 kilometers.
How could Lin Fan not understand what the dean was thinking?
He was worried that he would not return to Jiangbei University.
Lin Fan smiled, "Director Hu, there's no need. I'll go over myself later."
"We have to be responsible for the safety of the students." Hu Chuan said, "Besides, we've already reached Fourth Street of Qing City. But you don't seem to be home?"
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. He did not expect that Dean Hu and the others had already arrived in Qing City.
"I'm spending the new year with my grandparents in Shanwu Village," he said after a while.
"Shanwu Village? Alright, we'll be right there," Hu Chuan said. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎
Not long after, a luxurious bus stopped in front of the Lin family's house.
Then, Hu Chuan and a large group of professors walked in with gifts. "You should be Lin Fan's grandfather, right? Old Master Lin, happy new year." When they saw Lin Liqiang, they cupped their hands and congratulated him. "Thank you, thank you!" Lin Liqiang said happily.
Then, he asked, "Oh right, you are…"
"I'm Hu Chuan, the dean of the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University. I'm here to celebrate the New Year with you and also to pick Lin Fan up. It's too dangerous for him to go back alone considering the long distance."
"I'm Ma Zhicheng, the head of the grade of the Mathematics Department of Jiangbei University…"
"I'm Qin Jia, the dean of mathematics at Jiangbei University…"
Lin Liqiang listened to everyone's self-introduction, and his pair of turbid eyes became bright.
During this period of time, there were indeed many big shots who came to visit him.
However, there had never been people like Hu Chuan and Ma Zhicheng who had the status of dean and head of the grade.
These were all great professors and scholars! Lin Liqiang liked cultured people the most. Now… they had all come to pay their respects!
...
Lin Liqiang said excitedly, "Everyone, please come in. Come in and sit!"
"Lin Tao!" he shouted. "Lil Fan, Lin Tao! Come out and greet the guests!" Lin Tao had already met Hu Chuan and the others before the new year. Therefore, after seeing them again, he was not too unfamiliar with them. He said happily, "Dean Hu and all the professors, please sit down." Everyone sat together, drinking tea and chatting. The atmosphere was very relaxed.
Lin Fan said, "Dean, you guys really didn't have to pick me up. I was planning to drive to school later."
"How tiring is driving? It's also dangerous. Later, you can rest on the bus. Director Ma, you can help Lin Fan drive his car," Hu Chuan said.
"Alright," Ma Zhicheng replied.
Lin Liqiang and Lin Tao watched as Lin Fan, Hu Chuan, and the others boarded the luxury bus and headed toward Jiangbei University.
At this moment, a villager walked over and asked, "Old Master Lin, did you have more guests just now?"
These days, every time a wave of guests came to Lin Liqiang's house, there would be villagers coming to talk to them.
This was also when Lin Liqiang was the happiest.
"Yeah!" Lin Liqiang said proudly. "The dean and professors of Jiangbei University came to visit us just now. They came to pick up Lil Fan." When the villagers heard this, their faces immediately revealed a strong sense of envy.
The dean and the professors personally came to pay a New Year's visit and pick Lin Fan up to go back to school… How glorious was this?
...
Lin Liqiang was very satisfied with the villagers' reaction.
At the same time, in the Central Hospital in Qing City.
After these few days of treatment, Li Yong recovered a lot. He could even get out of bed alone.
He opened the drawer and saw the small bottle of Medical Water. He could not help but ask, "What's this?"
Yang Wei looked over and said, "Ah! Your former student, Lin Fan, brought this over before the New Year. He said that after you get better, you can drink it… I forgot about it!"
Li Yong's face was filled with gratitude when Lin Fan was mentioned.
If it was not for Lin Fan, his illness would not have recovered so quickly and he would not have been able to stay in the VIP ward.
Li Yong did not care what medicine it was. As long as it was given by Lin Fan, there was absolutely no problem. He poured it into his mouth.
Gulp!
A moment later…
The place where Li Yong had undergone surgery began to itch and burn…
Sleepiness also gradually came.
When he woke up, he realized that all the surgical wounds on his body had disappeared. A sense of relief that he had never felt before surged into his heart.
Feeling this… Li Yong was stunned, his face filled with disbelief..
Chapter 221: Class; Roll Call!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: Endless Fantasy Translation
As the New Year holidays had just ended, the road was filled with dense vehicles and was very congested.
The luxury bus took nearly three hours to arrive at Jiangbei University.
Originally, Hu Chuan and the others wanted to invite Lin Fan to have a meal together.
However, Lin Fan rejected it without hesitation.
After all, how could eating with a group of men be more interesting than eating with beautiful women?
Lin Fan drove the Lamborghini to Yi Ke City.
Creak!
When the door opened, Qiu Ziqian and Huang Ling appeared in Lin Fan's sight.
Although the temperature outside was close to zero and everyone was wearing thick down jackets, the temperature in the house with floor heating was as high as 20 degrees.
Therefore, Qiu Ziqian and Huang Ling were only wearing thin V-neck long robes.
Obviously, during the New Year, the two of them had taken good care of themselves.
Their already pretty faces had become even fairer and more translucent, and their figures started to develop from… to…
Seeing this…
Even Lin Fan could not help but be stunned. He could not help but gulp.
Qiu Ziqian and Huang Ling were being stared at by Lin Fan.
Perhaps it was because the floor heating was too hot, but their pretty faces were flushed.
o( ? ? ?ε ? ? ?*)
(* ? ? ? ?3)(* ? ? ?3)(ε ? ? ?*)
Today, the residential building shook left and right, and it did not stop for the entire night.
Fortunately, this building belonged to Lin Fan. Otherwise, many people would not be able to sleep.
The next morning.
A gentle breeze blew past, and a leaf hanging on the treetop fell down.
Lin Fan opened his eyes as well.
At this moment, he was the only one lying on the soft bed.
Lin Fan picked up his phone out of habit.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,650,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Then, he scrolled through his phone for a while before turning his attention to the sign-in system.
Lin Fan muttered to himself, "I got ten million yuan every day in Qing City. Today is my first time signing in Jiangbei this year. I hope I can get something useful.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained 51% of Xia Airlines' shares.]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
One had to know…
Xia Airlines was the largest private airline in Hua Nation. It had nearly 100 large passenger planes, and its market value had reached more than 40 billion yuan.
51% of the shares?
In other words, he had obtained more than 20 billion?
Today's sign-in reward was indeed not bad!
Lin Fan's lips curled up as he crawled up.
At this moment, Huang Ling and Qiu Ziqian were serving the delicacies at the dining table.
When they saw Lin Fan, their faces that were blushing from making breakfast became even redder.
Lin Fan picked up a fried dumpling and praised, "It's really delicious!"
When the two of them heard this, they revealed a knowing smile.
After breakfast, Lin Fan did not stay in Yi Ke City for long. After all, it was the first day of school and it was not good to be late.
He drove the Lamborghini while facing the warm sunlight on the slightly crowded road.
Soon, Lin Fan arrived at Jiangbei University.
Perhaps it was because they had not been to school for a while, but the students walking on campus were all smiling.
Lin Fan had just walked into the classroom when Song Yi, who was sitting at the back, waved at him and said, "Brother Lin Fan, over here!"
Lin Fan replied and sat down.
At this time, the three roommates were discussing the New Year holidays.
"Sigh, I feel like the New Year is getting less and less festive now. It's so boring." Song Yi sighed.
"Exactly! It's even worse than school. I play with my phone in school every day, sleep, and watch live broadcasts when I return to the dormitory. It's simply too awesome." Zheng Jinbao added, "At home, I can only sleep every day. If I sleep for too long, my parents will call me."
Ma Zhong rubbed his head and said, "I read books at home every day… I don't think there's anything different."
After a pause, he continued, "However, it's indeed better in school… I can access the knowledge web here and teachers give lectures."
"Don't tell me you only like to read?" Song Yi asked.
...
Zheng Jinbao said," What nonsense are you talking about? Ma Zhong has many hobbies… For example, the clubhouse we're going to tonight?"
Ma Zhong could not help but squirm as he asked, "Are we going tonight?"
"Hahaha!"
The two of them looked at his embarrassed expression and laughed out loud.
"Brother Lin Fan, how was your holiday?" Song Yi asked.
"It was a little tiring," Lin Fan said.
"Tiring?" The three of them were puzzled.
Their holidays were either dull or boring… What could be so tiring?
Lin Fan said, "Yeah, the CEOs of various companies and leaders of the city came to visit every day. I had to help greet them and pour tea for them every day. It was so tiring…"
Silence.
"Brother Lin Fan, do you think I could be your servant?" Song Yi begged. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝑐𝑜𝑚
...
"I beg you to let me be your servant!" Zheng Jinbao and Ma Zhong bent over exaggeratedly as though they wanted to hug Lin Fan and not let go.
Lin Fan looked at their funny faces and could not help but laugh.
At this moment, the bell rang in Jiangbei University.
Counselor Sun Yaodong walked in with a smile on his face. He first glanced at the students in the class.
When he saw Lin Fan, the smile on his face widened.
"Students, I haven't seen you for a month. Did you miss me?"
"No!" The students laughed and shouted.
Sun Yaodong's ears seemed to have their own filter, which directly filtered out their response.
"I missed you guys too!" he said with a smile.
"We didn't miss you!" The students stuck out their tongues and laughed even louder.
It had to be said that Sun Yaodong was a very good counselor. He did not have a trace of stiffness and easily became friends with the students.
The atmosphere in the classroom was relaxed and lively.
Sun Yaodong continued, "The New Year is over. Now, everyone should forget about dumplings, cured meat, cured fish, chicken drumsticks, and firecrackers at home. And blind dates too."
"Hahaha!"
The students in front did not say anything, but after the counselor finished speaking, the classroom burst into laughter.
Sun Yaodong cleared his throat and said, "Alright, let's take a roll call now."
Then, he picked up the name list and said, "Lin Fan."
"Here!"
"Song Jiaxin!"
"Here!"
Loud and clear answers rang out in the classroom.
Sun Yaodong held a ballpoint pen and kept ticking.
A few minutes later, the roll call ended.
"Everyone is here except Pan Chen." Sun Yaodong said with satisfaction, "Oh right, Pan Chen has chosen to take a break from school for some special reasons.
"So, strictly speaking, all the students in our class are here today."
As soon as he said this, the entire class burst into enthusiastic cheers.
"That's great!"
"Haha!"
Chapter 222 Class Monitor; New Year Outing!
Before the New Year holiday, Pan Chen, as the class monitor, brought his classmates to Xinglong Resort Hotel for a gathering.
All the students did not have any good feelings toward him. In fact, it could even be said that they hated him very much.
In the classroom, the students directly isolated him in a corner.
In the dormitory, no one was willing to talk to him.
!
When the rich second-generation heir that Pan Chen tried so hard to please went bankrupt, the students cheered enthusiastically.
They shouted, "God has eyes!"
Now, the students had learned from the counselor that Pan Chen had dropped out of school. This was definitely good news for them, and they all cheered loudly.
Sun Yaodong thought that it was because they had finally finished the boring roll call that the students cheered.
Therefore, he did not pay too much attention to it.
He cleared his throat and said, "A country can't live without a ruler.
"Pan Chen used to be our class monitor. Now that he's taking a break from school, we have to choose a new class monitor."
Sun Yaodong said in a serious manner.
If one did not know, one would probably think that Sun Yaodong was talking about selecting an important leader.
Sun Yaodong glanced around the class and asked, "Does anyone have any recommendations?"
"Lin Fan!"
"I recommend Lin Fan!"
"Brother Lin Fan!"
Almost the moment Sun Yaodong finished speaking, the class immediately sounded with the loud voices of the students.
Sun Yaodong was also very satisfied with this candidate.
"Alright." He nodded and said, "Then our new class monitor will be Lin Fan."
Li Fan was stunned.
What was going on?
'I sleep in class every day and often skip classes…Class monitor?
'Are you sure that's suitable?' Song Yi, Ma Zhong, and Zheng Jinbao seemed to have seen through Lin Fan's doubts and cupped their hands in congratulations.
"Brother Lin Fan, congratulations on becoming the class monitor!" Ma Zhong said.
"Originally, I wanted to cling to you after graduation. Now, it seems that I have to start from now." As Song Yi spoke, he looked like he was about to bend over and hug Lin Fan's legs.
"Brother Lin Fan, please help me!" Zheng Jinbao shouted. He also bent down and hugged Lin Fan's legs.
Lin Fan looked at their funny faces and could not help but want to laugh.
At this time, Sun Yaodong said, "The New Year holiday was a month long. I know that some of you haven't had enough fun, and some of you have a lot to talk about…
"So, let's organize a New Year outing so that you can have fun again and chat for two days. How about that?"
"Alright!" the students immediately shouted.
"Agreed!"
"That's great!"
"Then, let's leave this matter to our new class monitor, Lin Fan, to organize." Sun Yaodong smiled and nodded.
The first lesson of the semester did not require any explanation. The main thing was to bring the students out to celebrate the New Year.
After class, many students came to Lin Fan's side.
"Brother Lin Fan, congratulations on becoming the class monitor."
"Where are we going for the outing?"
"What about Mo Lake?"
"Bird Mountain is not bad either!" 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝒐𝒎
Many people voiced their suggestions.
Due to the short break between classes, the bell rang before they could come to a conclusion.
This was the old professor's class.
He was not as humorous as the counselor. He only casually chatted about the New Year before picking up the textbook and lecturing the new curriculum.
Yesterday, Lin Fan did not sleep for the entire night and was already a little sleepy. After listening to the old professor's hypnotic lecture, his head swayed and he finally fell asleep on the table.
When the old professor saw it, he could not help but praise in his heart, 'As expected of Lin Fan. Even though school has just started, he's already been studying all night! Geniuses are indeed forged with 99% hard work!' Lin Fan naturally did not know what the old professor was thinking. When he opened his eyes again, the school bell had already rung.
Then, he walked toward the cafeteria with Song Yi and the others.
Lin Fan looked at the long line of people and did not feel impatient at all. On the contrary, he was enjoying it.
At this moment, the phone in his pocket vibrated slightly.
It was 12 pm!
The red packets were here!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 19,99 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 166 yuan.]
...
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 28,888 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 66 yuan.]
Today, he earned a total of 41,211 yuan.
Lin Fan could not help but sigh out in his heart, "My luck today is still not that good." After opening the red packets, he realized that there were unread messages on WeChat. Su Ningjing: [The coffee beans you planted last time have already blossomed. They're so beautiful!
[ , …]
Looking at the snow-white flowers, Lin Fan could not help but be stunned.
At this moment, his phone rang.
Lin Fan looked at the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number.
"Is this Mr. Lin?" A respectful voice came from the phone.
Lin Fan said, "It's me. You are?"
"Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Zhao Yiping, the chairman of Xia Airlines…" The voice on the phone became more respectful.
...
Lin Fan was not too surprised by Zhao Yiping's call. "Oh, so it's Chairman Zhao. Hello. Why are you calling?"
"Mr. Lin, it's like this… Our Xia Airlines is planning to hold a staff meeting. I wonder if you have time to host it? It'll also point out the direction for the future of our country's aviation industry…" Zhao Yi Ping asked carefully.
Lin Fan said, "I won't be hosting it. I don't know much about the industry either. I'll just take the dividends."
Today, Zhao Yiping suddenly found out that 51% of his company's shares had been bought by someone. He was worried and restless.
This was the company he founded single-handedly.
He did not know what kind of person the other party was. Would he command Xia Airlines indiscriminately and cause Xia Airlines to gradually decline?
At this moment, Zhao Yiping heard Lin Fan's reply and was extremely happy. However, he suppressed the joy in his heart and persuaded Lin Fan a little more before hanging up.
Song Yi saw Lin Fan hang up and said, "Brother Fan, where do you think we should go for the outing?"
"I think it's best to drag everyone to the clubhouse again! Ma Zhong, don't you agree?" Zheng Jinbao said.
Ma Zhong could not help but squirm as he said, "That… That's not a good idea, right?
Counselor Sun will be going with us." New Year outing?
Lin Fan looked at his phone's WeChat again. He was looking at the messages from Su Ningjing. His eyes moved slightly, and he smiled. "I've already decided on the place for the New Year outing."
"Where?" Song Yi asked. "Is it a clubhouse?" Zheng Jinbao asked.
Ma Zhong squirmed again.
Chapter 223 Meeting at the Airport; Chance Encounter!
Saturday was supposed to be the day when students slept until they woke up naturally. However, at dawn today, a large group of students carried their bags and walked out of the school gate.
They did not feel reluctant to wake up so early.
On the contrary… everyone's faces were filled with excitement.
It was because today was the day they were going on a trip.
! 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝙤𝒓𝙜
Moreover, they were going to the beautiful Southern Province's Li City.
At this moment, a luxurious bus stopped steadily in front of the students.
"Lin Fan drove to the airport himself. I'll call the names first," Song Yi said as he held the name list.
"Ma Zhong!"
"Here!"
"Zheng Jinbao!"
"Here!"
Song Yi checked every name he read.
Sun Yaodong was not participating in the New Year outing.
In that case, Lin Fan should be the one taking attendance.
However, Lin Fan had gone to Yi Ke City last night.
Therefore, Song Yi did it for him.
After a while, the roll call was done.
"Are Gong Zhentian and Chen Lijian here?"
Song Yi asked.
Soon, someone answered.
"Gong Zhentian went home. He said he'll go to the airport today."
"Chen Lijian went on a date with his girlfriend yesterday. He also said that he'll go to the airport alone today."
"Alright, let's get in the car!" Song Yi said.
Instantly, everyone was extremely excited as they filed into the luxury bus.
After sitting down, the students started chattering excitedly again.
As it was Saturday morning, the road was very empty.
In just half an hour, the luxury bus arrived at the airport.
At this moment, Lin Fan drove the Pagani Huayra to the parking lot.
When he saw his classmates, he smiled and greeted them, "Good morning, everyone! Are you all here?"
"Gong Zhentian and Chen Lijian will be coming over later," Song Yi said.
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Alright, let's go inside and rest."
Then, Lin Fan brought everyone to the VIP lounge.
Everyone present…
Other than Song Jiaxin and a few others, most people had never been to the VIP lounge.
Some of them had never even taken a plane before.
At this moment, they looked at the high-end decorations in the VIP lounge and were amazed.
Lin Fan said, "You guys haven't eaten breakfast, right? You can eat whatever you want here."
In fact, some people had already noticed the exquisite food and high-end drinks in the VIP lounge… They swallowed their saliva silently.
At this moment, after hearing Lin Fan's words, they could not sit still anymore. They picked up the trays and picked up some delicacies.
Everyone stuffed their mouths, feeling extremely satisfied.
"It's so delicious!"
"This is the first time I've eaten such a delicious buffet!"
"Me too!"
Amidst a wave of praise, their stomachs also began to round.
"Why aren't Gong Zhentian and Chen Lijian here yet? Isn't the flight at 9:30? It's almost time!"
"Yes, it is."
"Call them to urge them. Otherwise, our class trip won't be complete."
Someone took out their phone and made a call.
After Gong Zhentian picked up the call, he said that he had already arrived at the airport and would be coming over immediately. Sure enough, Gong Zhentian also arrived at the VIP lounge after a while.
However, Chen Lijian did not pick up his phone.
All the students saw that it was getting closer and closer to 9:30, and they could not help but feel a little anxious.
Lin Fan said casually, "It's fine. Just let the airplane wait."
"Will the plane wait for us?" a student asked curiously.
"Probably? After all, there are so many of us," the classmate beside him said.
...
"I At this moment, a few men wearing sunglasses and a woman wearing a hat walked into the VIP lounge.
Among them, a relatively thin man said, "Are you all students who are going on a trip together? Let me tell you something. The plane won't be delayed because of one person or a group of people.
"So, quickly have that student take another flight. You guys should hurry up and board the plane. Don't waste so many plane tickets at once.' Obviously, he had heard the conversation between the students.
That was why he reminded them out of kindness.
He used to be a student, so he knew very well how rare it was to gather so many students to play together.
The students must be in a good mood. If they wasted all the plane tickets, everyone's mood would immediately become very bad.
In fact, this trip might not even be able to continue.
At this moment, a student suddenly shouted in surprise, "You're… Mr. He?"
Seeing that he had been recognized, Mr. He did not continue to hide and slowly took off his sunglasses.
"Ah! It's really Mr. He!"
"Mr. He, I like Yearning for Life the most!"
...
Then, another student looked at the middle-aged man beside Mr. He. "You're… Mr. Huang?"
"It's me." Mr. Huang took off his sunglasses.
"Heavens!" the student immediately shouted. "Are you Mrs. Feng?" Some students looked at the thinner woman. "Yes." Mrs. Feng took off her hat. "In that case, you're Mr. Chang?" Some students looked at the man in sunglasses.
"Yes." Mr. Chang also took off his sunglasses. Instantly, the entire VIP lounge was filled with passionate screams.
"Ah! I'm really lucky today!"
"Please give me an autograph, Mr. He."
"Mr. Huang, can I take a photo with you?"
"Mrs. Feng, please give me your autograph!"
"Mr. Chang, autograph please!"
The students surrounded Mr. He and the others.
Mr. He and the others were very amiable. Otherwise, they would not be so popular. As long as it was not too much, they would agree to all of the students' requests. At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded from outside.
Then, Chen Lijian ran over with sweat all over his head and said, "Sorry, I'm late." When the students saw him, they recovered from their excitement of meeting Mr. He and the others.
A few students hurriedly took out their phones and said anxiously, "This is bad! It's already 9:40! The plane has probably left!"
"What? Then what should we do?"
"We can't go to Li City anymore?" The students were so excited when they left the school, but at this moment, they were extremely disappointed.
Lin Fan smiled. "Don't worry. The plane hasn't left yet. It's waiting for us!"
"Student, the plane won't wait for you. Since the plane has just left, go to the counter and see if you can change your flight," Mr. He reminded.
At this moment, two flight attendants walked over.
Among them, the slightly taller flight attendant said in a sweet voice, "Mr. Lin, are all your classmates here?"
Chapter 224 Book a Plane; Arrive!
The flight attendant's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.
This… What was going on?
Was the plane really waiting for them?
Lin Fan's expression remained the same. He nodded and said, "Yes, everyone is here."
!
"Then do you need to rest for a while, or do you want to board now?" The flight attendant smiled.
"Let's board the plane now," Lin Fan said.
"Alright, this way please." The flight attendant bent down slightly and made a gesture of invitation.
Lin Fan nodded and turned to his classmates, "Let's go. Let's board the plane."
"Oh… Oh…"' Although there were still some people who were puzzled, they walked forward.
After Lin Fan and the rest had left, Mr. He said in a daze, "They… They left?"
"Obviously, yes," Mr. Huang said.
"But didn't they say that their plane leaves at 9:30? Does the plane really wait for people?" Mr. He said.
Mr. Huang shrugged, indicating that he did not know either.
At this moment, a crisp voice sounded from the VIP lounge's speakers.
"Attention, passengers of flight C1118. The flight to Li City has arrived. Please proceed to Boarding Gate B25…"
"Our plane is here," said Mr. Huang. "Let's board the plane."
Mr. He lowered his head and walked forward with confusion.
When he met a flight attendant, Mr. He could not help but quicken his pace. He hurriedly asked, "Hi there. Does the plan wait for late customers?"
Mr. He had a habit of solving problems as soon as possible.
Otherwise, it would be like a thorn stuck in his throat, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. 𝚋𝚎dno𝚟𝚎l.n𝚎𝚝
The flight attendant looked at Mr. He strangely.
Logically speaking, a person like Mr. He should often fly, right?
Why would he ask such a low-level question?
However, the flight attendant was a professionally trained person. After a short moment, she smiled professionally and said, "The departure time is strictly controlled. We don't stop and wait for anyone.
"If your relatives and friends haven't arrived at the airport yet, please ask them to come over as soon as possible."
How could Mr. He not see the change in the flight attendant's expression?
However, he did not care and asked, "But the plane seemed to have waited for a group of students?"
The flight attendant looked enlightened and said, "Oh, you mean Mr. Lin, right? He booked a large passenger plane from our Xia Airlines." Mr. He, Mr. Huang, Ms. Feng, and Mr. Chang… Their mouths were half open as they were stunned.
At this moment, Lin Fan and the others had already arrived on the plane. They each chose their favorite seats and sat down.
It was the first time some students took a plane, so they were very excited. They looked here and there for a while. They kept taking photos.
At this moment, a flight attendant slowly walked over and smiled. "Mr. Lin, are all your classmates here?"
Lin Fan nodded. "Everyone is here."
"Then may I ask… if the plane can take off now?" the flight attendant asked again.
"Sure," Lin Fan said.
"Alright."
After the flight attendant walked away, Zheng Jinbao praised, "The flight attendant is so beautiful!"
"That's right!" Song Yi agreed.
After the plane roared, its speed increased sharply. It instantly passed through the thick clouds and flew in the blue sky.
This scene caused all the students to exclaim in amazement.
More than an hour later, the plane finally landed slowly.
With the flight attendants respectfully sending them off, the students walked out in turn.
"Is this Li City? The air is so good!"
"The sky is so blue!"
When Lin Fan and his classmates got down from the plane, Mr. He, Mr. Huang, Ms. Feng, and Mr. Chang were waiting for the passengers to get off the plane. They wore sunglasses and hats and quietly got off.
Mr. Chang sighed. "This is the trouble of being a celebrity. We have to be quiet when we get off the plane. When will we be able to get off the plane openly?"
"We probably won't have a chance," said Ms. Feng.
"It's very simple," said Mr. Huang. "Really?" Mr. Chang and Ms. Feng looked over curiously.
Mr. Huang said, "Let Mr. He mention it to the program team. Just like the group of students just now, we'll book a plane. Let alone get off the plane openly, we can even dance on the plane."
Therefore, Mr. Chang and Ms. Feng both looked at Mr. He with eager eyes. Mr. He could not help but cough lightly. He said, "It's not possible to book a plane for the time being… However, it's still possible to rent a luxury car!"
Then, he pointed at a car not far away and said, "Look, our luxury car is here!"
At this moment, a high-end Mercedes-Benz bus drove over from afar.
In the end, it stopped steadily in front of Lin Fan and his classmates who had just alighted from another plane.
Then, Lin Fan and the rest boarded the high-end Mercedes-Benz bus. Seeing this…
Mr. Huang, Mr. Chang, and Ms. Feng all looked at Mr. He and then at the G18 in front of them with strange expressions.
...
That appearance…
It was as if they were saying, 'Mr. He, is this the luxury car you mentioned?' Mr. He opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say.
It had to be said that young people had good energy. Even though they woke up early in the morning and were so excited on the plane that they could not even control themselves… At this moment, they were sitting on the Mercedes-Benz bus, looking around and talking non-stop.
About two hours later, the bus drove through the winding mountain road and finally arrived at its destination.
When Lin Fan and his classmates got off the bus, Su Ningjing was already standing in front. Su Ningjing… was wearing a long green dress.
Under the sunlight, her fair skin and exquisite facial features became crystal clear like jade. Her black and pure eyes were like gemstones, emitting a dazzling light.
When a breeze blew past, her waterfall-like hair swayed gently.
Seeing this…
Everyone, including Lin Fan, was stunned.
At this moment, if someone said that fairies existed in this world, they would not hesitate to nod and believe it.
It was because a fairy had really appeared in front of them.
...
At this moment, Su Ningjing also saw Lin Fan.
A natural smile appeared on her pretty face…
At this moment…
Everyone felt as if they had been baked by the sun, and their hearts melted instantly. Under everyone's gaze, Su Ningjing walked in front of Lin Fan and said sweetly, "Brother Lin Fan, you're here."
As soon as she said that, everyone's hearts seemed to have been hit by a hammer.
Chapter 225 A Feast; Laughter!
Lin Fan did not care about the students around him. He took a step forward and opened his arms, ready to pull Su Ningjing into his arms. "Brother!"
At this moment, a loud and clear cry came from afar.
Then, Ah Mei, who was also wearing a green dress, jumped and ran over.
Her skin was not as fair as Su Ningjing's. She lived in the mountains of Li City all year round, so her skin was a healthy wheat color.
!
Her eyes were just like Su Ningjing's. They were as bright as gems, and her exquisite facial features seemed to have been meticulously carved by God…
If Su Ningjing was said to be a fairy who had descended to the mortal world, Ah Mei was the fairy of the mountain!
Under everyone's gaze, Ah Mei threw herself into Lin Fan's embrace.
Lin Fan smiled. "I haven't seen you for a month but you've grown taller."
"Hehe." Ah Mei's pretty face immediately became extremely radiant.
"Welcome…" a white-haired old woman slowly walked over and said.
"Granny, how are you feeling?" Lin Fan asked.
"Good, very good!" the old lady said happily.
Lin Fan nodded his head and felt a little more at ease.
The old lady was too old. Lin Fan did not know how effective Medical Water would be on her.
At this moment, a man in a white shirt slowly walked over.
He bowed and said in an extremely respectful tone, "Mr. Lin, it's almost mealtime. Shall we cook now?"
"Okay, go ahead." Lin Fan nodded.
"Alright!" the man in the white shirt replied. Then…
Several men wearing tall white chef hats moved out stoves, tables, M5 Wagyu beef, Australian lobster, hairy crabs, and other high-end ingredients from the trucks that were parked far away.
After the sound of cooking rang out, a wave of fragrance assailed their noses and spread continuously.
On the other hand…
Mr. He, Mr. Huang, Mr. Chang, and Ms. Feng finally arrived at the small mountain village after a while in the car.
As soon as Mr. Chang got out of the car, his stomach growled.
"Why didn't we come back after dinner in Li City?" he complained.
Ms. Feng's stomach was also growling.
"Yeah, it'll take a long time for Mr. Huang to cook, right?" he said with a bitter face.
"No way. Am I going to cook now?" Mr. Huang said with a tired face.
"We haven't started work yet, so why would we need Mr. Huang to cook?" Mr. He smiled. "Don't worry, our program team has already prepared a luxurious meal for you!"
Then, Mr. He opened the trunk of the GL8 and took out lunch boxes.
"Food is served!"
Mr. He had voice-acting skills, and he handed the lunch boxes to everyone. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵
At the same time, he also opened a lunch box and pointed at the braised fish, green pepper, lean meat, tomato and egg. He said, "You didn't expect to eat such luxurious lunch boxes in a small mountain village, did you?"
At this moment, a whiff of fragrance wafted over from afar.
Brother Chang sniffed hard and said, "Huh, what's that smell? It smells so good!"
"That's right! It smells so good!" Ms. Feng also praised. "I think it's over there!"
Then, she carried the lunch box and ran in the direction of the fragrance.
Mr. Chang and Mr. Huang followed closely behind.
When Mr. He saw that everyone had run away, how could he stay alone?
Not long after, they saw several men wearing tall chef hats displaying their superb culinary skills and bringing exquisite dishes to the tables that were already set up.
A large group of students sat around three tables, holding hairy crabs in one hand and Australian lobster in the other. They were eating with their mouths full of grease. They were having a good time.
Seeing this…
Mr. Chang, Ms. Feng, and Mr. Huang… They could not help but swallow their saliva.
Then, they looked at the hairy crabs and Australian lobsters in the distance.
They then looked at the tomato and egg as well as the green pepper shredded meat in their lunch boxes.
Then, they all looked at Mr. He.
Their appearances… It was as if they were saying, "Mr. He, is this the luxurious meal in the small mountain village you were talking about?"
Mr. He could only cough.
After eating and drinking their fill, the students' faces were filled with satisfaction.
Together, they followed the winding mountain path and the gurgling stream.
"This water is so clear. I can see the bottom with one glance."
"And it's so sweet!"
"Wow… That mountain is so beautiful!"
"Let's go! Let's go up and take a look!"
When they saw the setting sun dyeing the distant sky red, everyone's mouths were wide open in admiration.
...
After coming down from the mountain, a warm bonfire party was waiting for them. Just like that, everyone gathered around the bonfire to eat barbecue and sing pop songs.
On this day, the entire hill was filled with the laughter of students.
At night, the students went into the tent that Lin Fan had prepared.
They lay in the tent, looking at the bright stars in the night sky and chatting softly. It was quiet, beautiful, and extremely enjoyable!
Chapter 226 Beautiful Scenery; Yearning for Life!
The next day, a gentle breeze blew across the treetops.
Song Yi might have caught a cold. He stuck his head out of the tent and prepared to find a place to settle his physiological problems.
At this moment, the sun slowly poked out of the divine mountain in the east.
At this moment…
!
The sun, the mountain, and the sky seemed to be connected together. Song Yi could not help but be stunned.
"Lil Zhong, Jinbao!" he shouted. "Get up and watch the sunrise!"
Ma Zhong and Zheng Jinbao responded and crawled out of the tent.
Following that, the other students also stuck their heads out.
The morning sun was different from the setting sun. At first, the sun was blocked by the fog in the forest, making it seem a little hazy.
Then, the sun rose slowly and broke through the fog, forming thousands of dazzling lights. Seeing this…
All the students' mouths were wide open as if they were infatuated.
Even Song Jiaxin's beautiful eyes lit up.
However, in her eyes, the morning sun in the distance did not seem to be a fiery red sun. It seemed to have turned into a smiling Lin Fan.
Song Yi saw that all his classmates were shocked by the beautiful scenery he had discovered. He could not help but say proudly, "How is it? Isn't it nice?"
"It looks good!" Ma Zhong nodded seriously.
Zheng Jinbao said, "Song Yi, you got so drunk yesterday, but you actually woke up so early today. It's really rare!"
"That's because…" Song Yi was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly clutched his stomach and said hurriedly, "The toilet, the toilet, where's the toilet?!"
Immediately after, a nauseating stench wafted over to the students who were admiring the morning sun.
For breakfast, there were men wearing tall chef's hats who cooked delicacies such as Australian shrimp spaghetti, fried egg dumplings, beef fried rice, fresh meat wontons, and so on.
Everyone was very satisfied.
Yesterday, the students had already familiarized themselves with the surrounding environment.
Next, they chose the place they wanted to go and moved around freely.
Lin Fan plucked some fruits and returned early. He looked into the distance and saw the coffee beans that he had planted.
At this moment, the coffee beans had all grown and bloomed with snow-white flowers. It was as if a long stretch of white fur had been laid on the hillside. It was very beautiful.
Lin Fan praised in his heart, 'As expected of the top-grade coffee beans from the system. In just a month, they've grown so much."
He could not help but walk toward the hillside. Soon, he noticed that some of the plants had become crooked due to the rain and strong winds. Moreover, because the surrounding plants blocked the sunlight, they were short.
Thus, Lin Fan turned around and walked toward Su Ningjing's house. He was going to get a shovel and a hoe to transplant the affected plants and trim them.
Meanwhile, in a house in a small mountain village…
Mr. Chang was still sleeping soundly on the bed.
Ms. Feng, on the other hand, was lying on her stomach and playing with her phone. She did not want to move either.
They were on the road for the whole day yesterday, and then they had to clean up the house. They were exhausted.
Above their heads, there were two drones with high-definition cameras that kept circling.
Obviously, the program 'Yearning for Life' had already started.
In the live broadcast room.
Tan Wuxin: [Mr. Chang's sleeping posture is really too ugly. No wonder he can't find a girlfriend.]
Zheng Xuhao: [Yeah! He probably won't be able to find a girlfriend in real life. Let's see if he can get a girlfriend in TV shows or movies in the future.]
FIY: [Maybe not… Even in shows, Mr. Chang only has a younger sister.]
Shadowless: [Ms. Feng is in a daze and is playing with her phone. She's so cute!]
Description: [If my mom saw me playing with my phone like this, she would probably confiscate it until the next day…]
While the live broadcast room was filled with bullet comments, Mr. He walked in with a smile.
He smiled and said, "Lil Chang, Lil Feng, it's time to get up. Mr. Huang made us delicious fried dumplings and hot dry noodles!"
"Alright," Ms. Feng said weakly.
Then, she got up with great difficulty, brushed her teeth, and washed her face.
Only then did she come to the dining table with sleepy eyes.
"The delicious fried dumplings are here!"
"The delicious hot dry noodles are here!"
As Mr. He shouted twice, breakfast was served on the dining table.
Ms. Feng had just taken two bites when Mr. He took another bottle of milk and said, "How can we miss out on Trensu milk for breakfast?"
"Trensu has always been innovative. It uses high-quality milk from its exclusive farm, which can replenish the nutrients needed by the human body in a timely manner!" In the live broadcast room.
Xiao Sheng: [It's here, it's here! The advertisement is here!]
…: [Looking at Ms. Feng drinking milk, I suddenly thought of the scene where my mother stared at me drinking milk.] Cherish: [However, the dumplings made by Mr. Huang look pretty good.]
At this moment, Mr. Chang walked out with sleepy eyes.
Ms. Feng pushed a bottle of milk in front of him.
Mr. Chang said in a daze, "…For me?"
...
"Trensu has always been innovative," Ms. Feng said. "They use high-quality milk from their exclusive farm. It can replenish the nutrients needed by the human body in a timely manner!"
In the live broadcast room. AI: [Hahaha! Her actions are too funny!]
Stone: [This advertisement is too funny!]
Teenage Spirit: [This is too amusing!]
"Do you know?" Mr. He asked after a full meal. "Now, there's more and more carbon dioxide on Earth, and the weather is getting worse.
"Therefore, planting trees has become especially important. "Let's go plant trees today!" Then, Mr. He, Mr. Huang, Ms. Feng, and Mr.
Chang walked out with hoes, shovels, and saplings. After a while, they arrived at an empty space. Mr. He, Ms. Feng, and Mr. Chang were obviously not very good at planting trees.
After digging for a long time, they still could not plant a tree.
Mr. Huang could not help but say smugly, "There are techniques to planting trees…
"Look, I used a hoe to dig, and then a shovel…"
In the live broadcast room. KK: [As expected of the all-rounded Mr.
...
Huang. He's even so good at planting trees.] Vegetable Salad: [Is there anything in this world that Mr. Huang doesn't know?]
Single Bed: [Look at Ms. Feng and Mr. Chang.
Don't they look like two primary school students who are listening attentively?] Flower Language: [Mr. Huang's action of planting trees is so cool!]
Mr. Huang and the others planted a few trees on this piece of land and walked forward. later, they arrived at the other side A moment of the clearing.
Hence, Mr. Huang and the others picked up their hoes and prepared to start planting trees again.
However, this time, the drone accidentally captured the coffee plants not far away.
Chapter 227 Find the Most Handsome Farmer!
The flowers of the coffee plants were too eye-catching.
Soon, they attracted the attention of everyone in the live broadcast room.
Wild Xiao: [What a huge field of flowers!]
It Doesn't matter: [What beautiful flowers!]
!
Come and Go: [It's only early spring, right? It's really rare to see such big flowers!]
00887755: [Huh? Did you see that? Someone seems to be transplanting those flowers and plants. His movements are so handsome!] 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
The Little Man in the Painting: [First of all, I have to remind you that they aren't flowers but coffee plants. It's quite rare to see such well-planted coffee plants. The coffee beans harvested in the future should taste good too. Also, I want to say that that person's movements are so handsome!]
Moon on Branch: [Why do I feel like he's not transplanting plants but dancing in the sea of flowers? He's really… so charming!]
Floral Language: [I just said that Mr. Huang looked handsome planting trees. Although I can only see the back of the man in the sea of flowers, I have to say that he's really handsome!]
As the audience sent many comments, they quickly shared the live broadcast to their WeChat group chats and Moments… The man was labeled as the most handsome farmer.
Instantly, the popularity of the live broadcast room began to soar.
In fact, it was normal for such a situation to happen.
After all, Lin Fan had Expert-Level Planting Technique and could display his charm.
Regarding these…
Mr. Huang, Mr. He, Ms. Feng, Mr. Chang, and the others were out of the loop.
At this moment, they were still seriously planting trees, sweating profusely.
With their tireless efforts, all the saplings were finally planted.
Thus, the four of them dragged their tired bodies and walked toward the house.
The first thing they did when they returned to the house was to drink the iced sour plum drink that they had prepared earlier. Instantly, a sense of relief that they had not felt for a long time surged into their hearts.
This feeling… It was as if their bodies were floating.
Mr. Huang rested for a while before he stood up and said, "I got some mushrooms, bamboo shoots, and wild vegetables nearby this morning. I'll cook some wild game for you to try now."
Then, he went to the kitchen and quickly washed and cut the prepared dishes.
As the smoke rose, dishes that looked, smelled, and tasted good were served on the table.
In the past, under such circumstances, the live broadcast room would definitely be filled with praise.
However, the atmosphere today was completely different.
Stone: [Why are you cooking again? Continue filming that handsome guy transplanting the coffee plants!]
Carefree: [Yeah! I'm here to watch the handsome guy transplant the coffee plants. I only got to watch him for a while.]
FLY: [Continue filming the handsome guy transplanting coffee plants!]
Black and White Ordinary Man: [+1. Otherwise, I'll quit watching!]
Me in the Wind: [Also, remember to film from the front. Film the handsome guy's front profile!]
Generally speaking, after Yearning for Life started its live broadcast, the production team would not take the initiative to intervene.
Today, however, too many people had made requests.
Thus, when Mr. Huang, Mr. He, Ms. Feng, Mr. Chang, and the others finished their meal,a phone unexpectedly rang in the house.
Mr. Huang used a toothpick to pick his teeth and said, "Could it be that we have a guest? Lil Chang, go and answer the call."
"Oh." Mr. Chang stood up helplessly and picked up the phone.
"I'm the director of the program team. Please go to the place where you planted the trees earlier." A slightly hoarse voice came from the phone.
Mr. Chang was slightly stunned. He looked at the phone in his hand and could not help but ask in a low voice, "Why are we going there again?"
"Because when you were planting the trees, the drone accidentally captured a sea of white coffee plants and a man transplanting the coffee plants…
"Now, everyone in the live broadcast room is asking you to film him again…"
After Mr. Chang hung up the phone, a strange expression appeared on his face.
"What's wrong?" Mr. Huang asked. "Who called?"
Mr. Chang hesitated for a while and said, "The weather is so good today. Let's go out for a walk."
Mr. Huang, Mr. He, and Ms. Feng looked at the scorching sun outside.
Then, they looked at Mr. Chang.
That appearance…
It was as if they were questioning whether the weather was indeed good!
Mr. Chang could not help but cough. He stole a glance at the drone in front of him.
He felt helpless. What could he say?
He could not just say that the director had called, right?
Would that not expose him?
At this moment, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated slightly.
An advertisement popped up.
Seeing this…
Mr. Chang had a flash of inspiration and typed everything the director had just said into his phone.
...
Then, he smiled and said, "I use QQ Reading to read novels every day. There are many novels, and the interface is good… Come and take a look."
A perfect advertisement placement. Then, Mr. Chang handed his phone to Mr. Huang, Mr. He, and Ms. Feng.
When the three of them saw the words on the screen, they were stunned for a moment. After that, Mr. He finally understood. "Yeah, reading novels on QQ Reading is really fun!"
"I'm full. Come, let's go take a walk around the coffee plants to digest the food."
"Walking a hundred steps after a meal will help us live to 99! Let's go!" Mr. Huang replied. Then, Mr. He, Mr. Huang, Ms. Feng, and Mr. Chang walked out with brisk steps. Before long, they arrived at the small hill.
They looked at the wild coffee trees with white flowers all over the mountain. For a moment, they were all stunned.
"How beautiful!" Ms. Feng said sincerely.
In fact, it was not only Ms. Feng who sighed.
Everyone in the live broadcast room was the same.
L: [Oh my God! This is too beautiful!] True Color: [I want to plant coffee trees in the future!]
Shi Yang: [Where's that handsome guy from before? Where's the handsome guy?]
...
Black and White Cat: [Please film the handsome farmer!]
Countless comments immediately appeared in the entire live broadcast room.
Ding!
Brother Chang, who was silently admiring the coffee plants, felt his phone vibrate again. It turned out to be a message from the director: [Go find the handsome guy who transplanted the coffee plants. Handsome ] Seeing this…
Mr. Chang was stunned for a moment.
It was because he remembered this back view…
Was this not the young man he met in the VIP lounge yesterday?
He seemed to have booked a plane!
He was the one who transplanted the coffee plants? After a while, Mr. Chang picked up his phone again. He coughed lightly and said, "Every time I see such beautiful scenery, I like to take photos with my Oppo phone!" Another smooth advertisement was inserted.
"Mr. Huang, Mr. He, Ms. Feng, what do you think of my photo?" Then, Mr. Chang showed everyone the news and photos sent by the director.
Chapter 228 Surprised; Return!
Mr. He, Mr. Huang, and Ms. Feng were also stunned when they saw the message and photo.
Especially Ms. Feng, whose beautiful eyes shrank slightly.
Clearly, they recognized Lin Fan's back.
They were indeed professional actors.
!
Very quickly, they retracted the shock in their heart.
Then, they all praised.
"As expected of an Oppo phone. The photos are so clear!" Mr. He said.
"With an Oppo phone, I don't need to bring a camera anymore," Mr. Huang said.
"That's right!" Ms. Feng said.
After a series of discreet advertisements, they began to follow the director's instructions and turned around to look for the handsome guy who transplanted the coffee plants.
Along the way, they chatted as they walked…
Not long after, they arrived at Su Ningjing's house.
They remembered clearly that they had seen Lin Fan and his classmates here yesterday. They were holding Australian lobsters in one hand and hairy crabs in the other, eating to their hearts' content.
As if recalling that scene, Mr. Chang and Ms. Feng could not help but swallow.
At this moment, Ah Mei hopped over and asked, "Is there something you need?"
"What a cute girl!" Ms. Feng was pleasantly surprised, and her eyes immediately turned into crescent moons.
"Little girl, weren't there a lot of people here yesterday?" Mr. He smiled. "Where are they?"
"They just went back!" Ah Mei said.
"They went back… Did they go back?" Mr. He was stunned.
"What about this person?" Mr. Chang took out his phone again.
"Oh, you mean Brother? He also went back together with the rest of them!" Ah Mei said.
In fact, this was normal.
After all, Lin Fan and the rest still had classes on Monday and had to return today.
When Mr. He, Mr. Huang, and the others heard this, they revealed a helpless expression.
The director's mission could not be completed.
In the live broadcast room.
Hashido: [They went back already? It's a pity that I can't see the handsome guy who transplanted the trees.]
Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming, Qing: [But this little girl is so cute.]
Little Wen Zi: [What a pity.]
Brother Chang had just put away his phone when he suddenly saw a watch in front of him. He bent down and picked it up.
He looked at the cool appearance of the watch and could not help but praise, "What a great watch!"
Mr. He, Ms. Feng, and Mr. Huang, who were beside him, also saw it.
"It looks good!" Ms. Feng said.
"It looks pretty good indeed." Mr. He nodded.
At this moment, Mr. Huang frowned slightly and said, "Huh, this watch… Let me see…' Then, he took the watch and looked at it carefully.
After a while, he said, "This watch… Why does it look like the limited edition 5002P from Patrick Phillip?"
It had to be said that Mr. Huang was indeed a jack of all trades.
He knew a thing or two about limited edition watches.
"A limited edition model from Patrick Phillipe?
That must be very expensive, right?" Mr.
Chang said.
"More than 17 million," said Mr. Huang.
Hiss!
Mr. Chang, Ms. Feng, and Mr. He all gasped.
Even though they were popular celebrities,a watch worth more than 17 million yuan was enough to shock them.
"This is my brother's watch!" Ah Mei said.
In the live broadcast room.
Zheng Xuhao: [A watch that costs more than 17 million yuan? Don't tell me this is true?]
The Other Party Is Typing: [It shouldn't be true, right? Otherwise, such an expensive watch would definitely be found quickly if it was lost, right?]
I Love Watches: [I'm the manager of a watch company. I've just studied it very carefully. It's indeed a genuine platinum 5002P! The current market price is 17.6 million yuan!]
Treasure: [In that case… Not only is the farmer handsome, but he's also a super tycoon?]
Explanation: [He's truly tall, rich, and handsome!]
Huahua: [Why didn't I even get a chance to look at this tall, rich, and handsome guy?]
"Ah-choo!"
...
Lin Fan suddenly sneezed.
"Brother Lin Fan, are you alright?" Ma Zhong asked.
Lin Fan rubbed his nose and said, "I'm fine."
Then, a faint smile appeared on his face. That was because a crisp notification rang out in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding! You've completed the hidden mission and organized a perfect spring outing. You'll receive five silver packets.]
After two days of playing, he completed a mission and received five silver packets. This was definitely a pleasant surprise for him.
Then, just like before, Lin Fan brought everyone into the VIP lounge to rest for a while.
Then, they boarded the plane together. Perhaps it was because they had experienced it once or perhaps they were tired from playing these two days.
This time, many students fell asleep in the airplane seats.
About two hours later, when the plane landed, they were woken up by the students next to them and boarded the luxury bus that had been waiting at the airport.
At this moment, a student suddenly realized something and said, "We've been flying back and forth for the past two days. Why didn't we see any other passengers?"
...
"Huh? That seems to be true."
"Now that you mention it, I just realized it!"
"That's strange. The spring festival has just passed. There should be a lot of people flying."
"Moreover, I think that… we were on the same plane both times. Even the flight attendants on the plane were identical."
Lin Fan listened to everyone's discussion and replied casually, "Because I booked that plane." His voice was very calm.
However, it sounded like thunder in the ears of the students.
He booked that plane!
Book the plane? How much was it?
The students had only seen it happen in movies, novels, and other places.
However, in reality… they had never heard of it before. Now, it happened in front of them? Their faces were filled with shock and disbelief. At this moment, many students remembered that Lin Fan had brought them directly on a plane and they did not need to get their tickets checked.
It was Lin Fan who booked the plane!
At this moment…
All the students looked at Lin Fan with admiration.
In order to let everyone have a happy spring outing, Lin Fan booked the entire plane! In fact, most people… Even if it was a chartered flight, booking one would not be so easy.
The real reason was that Lin Fan was the biggest shareholder of Xia Airlines.
Lin Fan could not be bothered to talk about this matter.
After returning to school, Lin Fan did not go to his dorm. Instead, he drove the Pagani Huayra to the Coiling Dragon Villa.
Then, he focused his attention on the five silver packets.
"Let's see what we can get," he muttered.
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received one million yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 500,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained 5% of the shares of the Volkswagen Group.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 200,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 500,000 yuan.]
Chapter 229 Great Harvest; Mission Triggered!
As Lin Fan was the biggest shareholder of Xia Airlines, the chartered flights were all provided by Xia Airlines for free.
For this spring outing, he had only prepared a tent, ingredients, and chefs. The total cost was only a few hundred thousand yuan.
Lin Fan had completed the hidden mission and received five silver packets. He received 2.2 million yuan and 5% of the shares of Volkswagen Group.
This was definitely a great harvest!
!
One had to know…
Volkswagen Group was not just limited to Volkswagen. It also included Audi, Lamborghini, Bentley, Bugatti, and a large number of other car companies with a total market value of more than one trillion yuan.
5% of the shares were worth more than 50 billion.
In other words, Lin Fan had invested hundreds of thousands in this spring outing and earned at least 50 billion yuan!
Then, Lin Fan turned his attention to the check-in system.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received ten million yuan.]
Regarding this…
Lin Fan paid it no mind at all. He played with his phone for a while more before lying down on the soft bed and falling asleep.
In the past two days, he had been flying, hiking, and transplanting… He was a little tired.
The next day, the sky was clear.
When a few sparrows made a few crisp sounds outside the window, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes.
He first looked at his phone out of habit. As usual, a text message appeared on the screen.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,670,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
He did not pay much attention to this and turned his attention to the check-in system. "Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received ten million yuan.]
"Why is it ten million again?" Lin Fan pursed his lips.
Then, he slowly got up and washed up.
At this moment, the phone in his pocket rang.
Lin Fan looked at the caller ID. It was an unfamiliar number. After hesitating for a moment, he still chose to pick it up.
"Is this Mr. Lin?" A slightly low voice came from the phone.
"It's me. Who are you?" Lin Fan asked.
"Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Hou Jiarun, the manager of Fengrao Logistics… We have a batch of your cars here. Where should we send them?" The voice on the phone said very respectfully.
A batch of cars?
He did not seem to have ordered any cars during this period of time.
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment before asking, "Are you sure they're mine? But I haven't booked any cars yet."
"Are you Lin Fan, Mr. Lin?" Hou Jiarun hesitated for a moment before asking.
"It's me," Lin Fan said.
"That's right, then. These cars were sent by Volkswagen Group," Hou Jiarun said.
When Lin Fan heard this, he finally had a look of realization on his face.
If it was Volkswagen Group, it would make sense.
After all, Lin Fan had a similar experience when he obtained LV's and Gucci's shares.
"Then send them to the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex in Jiangbei," Lin Fan said. "Do you know where it is?"
"I do. I'll be there in about 20 minutes. Is that okay?" Hou Jiarun asked.
Lin Fan replied, "Sure."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan took out some bread from the fridge and baked it in the bread machine. Then, he added high-end butter, beef slices, Australian lobster meat, organic vegetables, and a glass of premium milk.
It could be considered a simple breakfast.
Lin Fan had just finished his breakfast when the phone in his pocket rang.
"Mr. Lin, I've arrived…" Hou Jiarun's voice came from the phone.
When Lin Fan heard that, he looked out the window.
Sure enough, two long trucks that were 20 to 30 meters long appeared in his sight. Each truck was divided into three levels, and each level was filled with cars including Volkswagen, Audi, Bentley, Porsche, and so on.
Lin Fan had already guessed that the number of cars that Volkswagen Group was giving him would not be small.
However, after seeing this scene, he could not help but be shocked.
These cars…
Could it be that they were all his?
This number… There were probably dozens of them, right?
Lin Fan walked out with a puzzled look. The round-faced man in the truck quickly saw Lin Fan. He hurriedly walked down and said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Hou Jiarun, the one who just called you. "Hello, Manager Hou." Lin Fan said, "Are these cars all mine?"
"Yes, where do you think I should put these cars?" Hou Jiarun asked.
"Ah… Just leave them along this road in front,' Lin Fan said.
The road that Lin Fan was pointing at was the public road in the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex.
...
Normally, parking was not allowed on this road. However, the entire Coiling Dragon Villa Complex belonged to Lin Fan alone. Naturally, this rule did not apply.
With the help of a few workers, all the cars were finally parked on the road after about half an hour.
"Then… Mr. Lin, if there's nothing else, we'll take our leave first," Hou Jiarun said.
From the moment he saw Lin Fan until now, Hou Jiarun had maintained a respectful attitude.
It was no wonder…
It was because he knew that this batch of cars was personally sent by the president of Volkswagen Group.
The president of Volkswagen Group valued Lin Fan so much. Lin Fan's identity… One could imagine how amazing it was. "Alright." Lin Fan said.
Just as the two trucks left, Lin Fan's phone rang again.
This time, it was an unknown number from overseas.
"Hello, Mr. Lin," said a voice that spoke in a very broken Hua Nation language. "Hello," Lin Fan said. At the same time, he had already guessed the identity of the other party. Then, a crisp voice came from the phone.
"Mr. Lin, I'm the secretary of Volkswagen Group's president, William Hull. Mr. William Hull asked me to send his regards to you. He expresses his gratitude for your support and trust in Volkswagen Group…
...
"In addition, Mr. William Hull asked if you've received Volkswagen Group's vehicles. Are you satisfied?"
Lin Fan said, "Tell Mr. William that I'm very satisfied."
Then, he heard words being exchanged. "Mr. William Hull said that it's good as long as you like them, Mr. Lin. He'll continue to send you new cars from Volkswagen Group in the future," the secretary said. Lin Fan had Professional-Level English, so he understood William's words clearly. They could even converse fluently in English.
However, he did not bring it up, nor did he have any intention of speaking in English. It was because he was from Hua Nation! "Thank him for me," Lin Fan said. After some small talk, Lin Fan finally hung up.
Then, he looked at the long line of Volkswagen and Audi cars on the road and revealed a strange expression.
"There are so many cars. If I use a different one for every day of the month, there'll be no overlaps."
As soon as he said that, a crisp voice rang out in Lin Fan's mind. [Ding! Mission triggered-complete five special orders. Reward: Five golden packets.]
Chapter 230 Keep Working Hard and You'll Be Like Me!
When Lin Fan heard the notification in his mind, he was stunned for a moment. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒏𝙚𝙩
Five special orders to get five golden packets?
Golden packets!
Lin Fan's eyes moved slightly. He had never received a golden packet before.
!
This piqued his interest.
Lin Fan looked at the time and muttered, "It's already too late to go to school now. Let's not go today…"
Then, Lin Fan took out his phone and sent a request for leave to Counselor Sun.
Normally, if someone asked for leave as soon as school started, the counselor would definitely reprimand them and ask them to come to class immediately.
However, Lin Fan was different.
The school leaders had already informed everyone to give Lin Fan the greatest freedom.
Therefore, Sun Yaodong directly agreed. Seeing this…
Lin Fan opened a Santana next to him and downloaded the DiDi app to quickly register.
Then, he stepped on the accelerator and sped out.
The Santana was not like a supercar, which had 500 to 600 horsepower.
The Santana only had 119 horsepower.
However, it was precisely because of this that Lin Fan felt a sense of relaxation.
Not long after, Lin Fan received a beep. The customer was only two kilometers away from him.
It was a middle-aged man wearing a branded shirt and gold-rimmed glasses.
After he got into the car, he glanced at Lin Fan.
Then, with a slightly arrogant tone, he said, "Did you buy this car?"
"Oh, no… I didn't buy the car," Lin Fan replied casually.
When the middle-aged man heard this, the arrogance on his face intensified.
In his opinion, since he did not buy the car himself, his parents must have bought it for him.
A 20-something-year-old man who could not even afford a Santana and only knew how to rely on his parents was really useless.
However, how would he know that…
This Santana was not bought by Lin Fan. It was a gift from the president of Volkswagen Group.
"Young man, it should be easy to drive people around, right?" the middle-aged man asked.
Lin Fan held the steering wheel and said casually, "Yeah, it's quite easy."
Instantly, the middle-aged man looked at Lin Fan with a look of pity and disappointment.
"You know what? When I was your age, I had nothing and was very poor…
"However, I never reached out to my parents, nor did I find an easy job. Instead, I gritted my teeth and worked hard!
"Finally! After many years of hard work, I have my own Porsche, my own villa, and several houses… Moreover, I have a company with a market value of tens of millions!
"Do you know Jiaye Office Building? That's a high-end office building in the center of Jiangbei City. My company is in Jiaye Office Building!"
As the middle-aged man said this, an unconcealable pride appeared on his face.
Lin Fan looked at him and could not help but feel weird.
Was he trying to show off in front of him?
However, Jiaye Office Building? Was that not his building?
In fact, Lin Fan's guess was right.
When the middle-aged man saw some young people who had a hard life but were honest, he liked to act like a successful person and show off in front of them.
Then, those young people would show their desire for a bright future and worship him. The middle-aged man liked this feeling very much.
"Cough, cough!" The middle-aged man seemed to think that he was being too obvious, so he coughed lightly and said earnestly, "Young man, work hard. In the future, you can be like me."
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang.
Lin Fan answered the phone in the car. Immediately, a respectful voice came from the car speaker.
"Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Xiao Wang, the property manager of Qiankun Building. The rent for this year's building has been collected, and it's a total of 76 million yuan… Do you want me to transfer it directly to the bank card you provided last time?"
If an ordinary person suddenly heard that they were about to receive 76 million yuan, they would definitely be overjoyed.
However, Lin Fan's expression was extremely calm.
"Yes, just proceed with it."
It was no wonder that he was like this.
That was because Lin Fan's daily income from signing in, breathing, walking, sleeping, and so on was usually more than 13 million.
He could earn 76 million yuan in just six days.
Lin Fan did not care anymore. However, the middle-aged man sitting in the Santana had his mouth wide open. His entire face was filled with disbelief.
76 million yuan!
Even if he added up all his assets, he probably would not have so much money.
This young man who drove on DiDi received 76 million yuan in rent?
...
The entire Qiankun Building was his?
No!
This was absolutely impossible!
The person on the phone must be lying to him and joking!
That was right!
That must be the case!
Otherwise, this young man would not be driving on DiDi!h Thinking of this, the middle-aged man's expression relaxed again.
"Alright, I'll instruct the finance department now… I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye, Mr. Lin," Lil Wang said.
Lin Fan had just hung up when his phone rang again. "Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Lil Qin, the property manager of Baijia Building. The rent for this year's building has been collected according to the contract. The total amount is 85 million yuan… Do I transfer it to your Merchant Bank account?" Lil Qin said. "That's right," Lin Fan said. "Alright, I'll get someone to do it now… Then I won't disturb you anymore, Mr. Lin. Goodbye," Lil Qin said.
85 million yuan?
Baijia Building also belonged to this young man?
...
How was this possible?
When he heard the first call, the middle-aged man still had a trace of doubt in his heart.
What if Qiankun Building really belonged to this young man?
At this moment, he completely threw this doubt to the back of his mind.
Impossible!
Having a skyscraper was already very impressive. Two buildings?
That was absolutely impossible! This young man had probably secretly sent a message to his friends when he was not paying attention, asking them to put on a show with him.
At the thought of this, the middle-aged man looked at Lin Fan with a mocking gaze. At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang again.
"Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Lu Weili, the property manager of Modu's Global Financial Building. The rent for this year's building has been collected. It's a total of 1.591 billion yuan… I'll transfer it to your Merchant Bank account now.
Is that okay?" Lu Weili said. 1.591 billion?
Lin Fan's tone was filled with joy as he said, "Alright, just proceed with it."
"Alright, then I won't disturb you anymore, Mr. Lin," Lu Weili said.
The middle-aged man sitting next to him almost laughed out loud. 1.591 billion yuan?
He had already treated Lin Fan's words as a lie.
Asking people to act without considering the reality was really laughable!
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang again.
"Hello, Mr. Lin! I'm the property manager of Jiaye Building, Lil Zhang …" Hearing this voice, the smile on the middle-aged man's face slightly stopped. It was because he was very familiar with this voice…
The owner of this voice seemed to be the property manager of Jiaye Building, whom he had personally visited yesterday to chat with and give gifts to… Zhang Wenzhong!
Chapter 231 Special Orders; Leisurely Life!
Why did it sound like Zhang Wenzhong's voice?
The middle-aged man looked up at the Santana's navigation system with confusion.
He only saw…
There were three big words on the car navigation screen-Zhang Wenzhong! Seeing this…
!
The middle-aged man trembled slightly.
Maybe it was the same name!
That was right!
That must be the case!
Then, he quickly took out his phone and compared Zhang Wenzhong's number with the number on the car navigation.
151… 2345..
It was exactly the same!
The person who called was really Zhang Wenzhong, the property manager of Jiaye Office Building!
In the past, no matter where Zhang Wenzhong went, he would always hold his head high and be treated respectfully by many people.
When had… he even spoken to others in such a respectful tone?
He even called himself Lil Zhang?
Lil Zhang?
This…
This… It was simply unimaginable!
At this moment, Zhang Wenzhong's respectful voice sounded from the car's speakers again. "Mr. Lin, the rent for all the office buildings in Jiaye Office Building this year has been collected. It's a total of 83 million yuan. Would you like to transfer it to your Merchant Bank account "I The middle-aged man froze.
The office rent of Jiaye Office Building was transferred to the young man's account.
In that case, Jiaye Office Building… definitely belonged to him!
It turned out that he had not been acting all along!
Qiankun Building belonged to him, Baijia Building belonged to him, and Global Financial Building in Modu… also belonged to him!
Qiankun Building, Baijia Building, and Jiaye Office Building were all high-end office buildings in Jiangbei. The market price was all above one billion, totaling more than three billion!
Modu's Global Financial Tower was a well-known high-end office building in the country. It was probably worth more than tens of billions!
The young man in front of him… What kind of godly tycoon was he?
The middle-aged man could not help but gape in shock.
Lin Fan did not care about him at all. He said calmly into the phone, "Yes, just transfer it to my Merchant Bank account."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Then, Lin Fan looked at the middle-aged man and sighed, "Sigh, I've thought about it… I still can't work as hard as you did when you were young.
"Otherwise, when I reach your age, it would be too tragic if I only have tens of millions of assets left…"
When the middle-aged man heard this, his entire face flushed red. He had never expected a young man who drove on DiDi to actually be such a legendary super tycoon.
Could it be that all the truly rich people were so low-key?
At this moment, he wished he could dig himself a hole to bury in.
As soon as they arrived at their destination, the middle-aged man ran out of the car as if he was escaping.
Lin Fan could not help but smile as he rubbed his nose. Then, he placed his attention on the system mission.
[Mission-complete five special orders. Reward: Five golden packets. Progress: 1/5.]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
Did this count as completing a special order?
Could it be that every order was a special order?
Was this not a little too easy?
Thinking of this, Lin Fan could not help but let out a relaxed smile.
At this moment, his phone vibrated slightly, and a new order appeared. The customer was only one kilometer away.
Lin Fan stepped on the accelerator and sped forward.
This customer was a woman, and the journey was peaceful.
After Lin Fan sent her to her destination, he checked the mission but there was no progress.
Then, Lin Fan received two more orders. However, the progress of the mission remained unchanged.
Lin Fan muttered, "As expected, special orders don't appear so easily!"
However, Lin Fan was not too frustrated.
It was because he felt very relaxed and at ease while driving slowly.
When Lin Fan arrived at a red light at a crossroad.
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone vibrated. 12:00 PM!
The red packets were here!
...
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 333 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 99 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 19,999 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 10,00 yuan.]
This time, Lin Fan received a total of 42,312 yuan. Seeing this… Lin Fan could not help but purse his lips and throw his phone to the side. Then, at a two-star Michelin restaurant nearby, he ordered a serving of matsutake at 880 yuan, a small yellow croaker at 2,000 yuan, an organic tomato and beef stew at 2,000 yuan, and a pigeon soup at 500 yuan. Lin Fan's lunch was settled just like that.
After Lin Fan ate, he started to yawn. He did not return to the Coiling Dragon Villa. Instead, he spent 10,000 yuan to book a presidential suite at the nearby Hilton Hotel and fell asleep.
After all, it would still take him dozens of minutes to return to Coiling Dragon Villa. It was too troublesome. As for the DiDi mission?
He was not in a hurry.
Lin Fan was determined to complete this mission. Firstly, he was curious about the gold packets.
Secondly, he wanted to experience the DiDi lifestyle.
If it was a mission that required a lot of effort, Lin Fan would not even bother with it. Lin Fan slept very comfortably. When he opened his eyes, it was already four in the afternoon.
...
Then, Lin Fan asked the attendant to send up some high-end desserts and fruits. After that, he returned to the Santana and began to experience the DiDi life again. Soon, Lin Fan had completed three DiDi orders.
However, the progress of the mission did not change.
Just as the sky was gradually darkening… His phone vibrated slightly, and a new order appeared.
However, this time, there was a 300 yuan red packet and a message under the order-[When you arrive, please pretend to be my boyfriend and help me out. The red packet is a thank-you gift. Oh right, my name is Lil Xuan.] He actually encountered such a thing? Was this considered a special order?
Lin Fan was a little confused as he arrived at his destination.
and Not far away, there was a woman with exquisite facial features. She was wearing a light-colored windbreaker, a white shirt, and a black gauze skirt. She had a slender voluptuous figure. Beside her… A man in a checkered shirt was standing there, saying something to her.
The woman frowned slightly, a hint of annoyance and helplessness on her pretty face. At this moment, the woman turned her body and happened to see the Santana driving toward her.
She quietly took out her phone and checked the license plate number.
Then, with a nervous heart, she took two steps forward and waved repeatedly. Obviously, this was the customer of DiDi Orders – Lil Xuan.
Lin Fan noticed her too. He used his Eyes of Truth on her.
[Appearance: 92]
[Favorability: 50] 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝒈
Lin Fan thought to himself, '92 points of beauty? No wonder men are going after her.' Then, Lin Fan parked the car in front of him and walked out of the driver's seat. He smiled and said, "Lil Xuan, have you been waiting for long?"
Chapter 232 Never Heard Of It; The Gap!
Lin Fan's attitude was that he loved what he did.
Since he had accepted the order from DiDi, he had to follow the rules.
Moreover…
Lil Xuan also had a high attractiveness score of 92 points.
!
Therefore, Lin Fan did not mind pretending to be Lil Xuan's boyfriend.
In fact…
Lil Xuan, who asked the driver to pretend to be her boyfriend, was both nervous and helpless.
She had no choice but to do that as she was being harassed.
At the same time, Lil Xuan did not know what kind of person the driver would be.
What if… it was a wretched and greasy middle-aged man?
What should she do then?
At this moment, when Lil Xuan saw Lin Fan's bright and handsome face, she could not help but heave a sigh of relief.
In fact, she even felt a little happy.
"I didn't wait for long. I just got here," she said with a smile.
At this moment, the man who had been standing beside Lil Xuan earlier had a cold look in his eyes as he asked in a deep voice, "Lil Xuan, who is he?"
Lil Xuan opened her cherry lips and stuttered, "He… He's…"
After all, Lin Fan was just the driver that she had called.
She was too embarrassed to say that he was her boyfriend.
"I'm Lil Xuan's boyfriend, Lin Fan," Lin Fan said straightforwardly. "Who are you?"
Boyfriend!
The man's face darkened.
He had also heard Lil Xuan mention that she had a boyfriend.
However, the man had always thought it was Lil Xuan's excuse.
After all, none of Lil Xuan's colleagues had ever seen her boyfriend before.
However, it was true?
Lil Xuan was such a beautiful woman, yet she had a boyfriend?
The man glanced at the Santana beside him with a look of disdain.
He was just a man who drove a Santana even though he was Lil Xuan's boyfriend now.
'Very soon, I'll let you know that you aren't worthy!' Thinking of this, the man said in a superior tone, "I'm Zou Zheng. You should have heard of Da Tong Company, right? That's my family's company.
Lin Fan said in a surprised tone, "Da Tong Company belongs to your family?"
"That's right!" Zou Zheng said proudly.
It was as if he could already see Lin Fan bowing and fawning over him.
Lil Xuan, who was beside Lin Fan, revealed a nervous expression on her pretty face.
Could it be… Did Lin Fan happen to have a partnership with Da Tong Company?
Was he an employee of Da Tong Company?
What should she do if he said that he was not her boyfriend?
At this moment, Lin Fan shook his head, "I've never heard of it."
Lil Xuan burst out laughing.
Lin Fan's reversal was simply too great.
Zou Zheng almost choked. His eyebrows twitched as he grimaced. "You're skilled!" Lin Fan said casually, "Yeah, I've always been good."
Even though Lin Fan teaching Zou Zheng a lesson made Lil Xuan very happy, she could feel the intense atmosphere and could not help but panic. "Lin Fan, it's getting late. Let's go back first."
She knew very well how powerful the Zou family was.
Lin Fan was just a DiDi driver.
If Zou Zheng were to find trouble with him because of her, then she would really feel bad. Lin Fan could read Lil Xuan's thoughts as well, and he could not help but nod his head in approval.
"Don't be in such a hurry to leave!" Zou Zheng said. "Let's go for a drink together."
"I'm sorry, I don't like to drink," Lil Xuan replied casually, then she turned around and walked toward the Santana.
At this moment, footsteps sounded behind her.
Then, a middle-aged man in a white shirt strode over.
When he saw Zou Zheng, his silver-rimmed glasses reflected a faint glow of excitement. He said obsequiously, "Young Master Zou, why are you here? Why don't we go upstairs for a cup of coffee?"
Zou Zheng glanced at him, and his eyes moved slightly. "I won't drink coffee. Originally, I was planning to meet the young masters of Fujia Company and Fengyuan Company for dinner. "In the end, An Xuan from your company refused to go. Forget it, I'll just leave." When the middle-aged man heard this, he could not help but become a little anxious.
One had to know…
Fujia Company, Fengyuan Company, and Zou Zheng's family's Da Tong Company were all big clients that his company had to win over.
However, he had never had any good ideas.
Now, Zou Zheng was organizing a dinner with the young masters of Fujia and Fengyuan. What a good opportunity!
...
He definitely could not miss it!
When the middle-aged man thought of this, he quickly turned around and said, "An Xuan, I have a task for you. Go to the dinner with Young Master Zou!"
"But, Manager, I've already agreed to go out for dinner with my boyfriend," An Xuan said. "You can eat with your boyfriend anytime!" Manager Li said sternly. "This task is very important and involves a major contract. Therefore, it'll be linked to your salary and year-end bonus!"
Hearing this, An Xuan's body could not help but freeze.
She had to send a sum of money home every month, and coupled with her own expenses… Her bonus and salary were too important to her.
"Alright, I'll go to the dinner party," she said in a low voice as she bit her red lip.
Lin Fan said softly, "Don't worry, I'll go with you." Then, he glanced at Manager Li and Zou Zheng. He said, "I'm worried about my girlfriend's safety, so I'll go with her. Is that okay? "If you can't even agree to this, then I can only suspect that you're up to no good with my girlfriend. In that case, I'll ask her to resign tomorrow."
Manager Li could not help but look at Zou Zheng.
"If you want to come, then come." Zou Zheng sneered.
In fact, he had no intention of taking advantage of An Xuan today. After all, it was a society ruled by law.
As long as he did something out of line, he would definitely lose. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝗺
...
The gains outweighed the losses.
Zou Zheng's goal was to show An Xuan how extravagant his life was.
At the same time, it also made Lin Fan understand how big the gap between him and him was!
Manager Li hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then… Can I go with you too?"
This dinner was really too important to the company.
He was worried that An Xuan, a female employee, would not be able to look at the big picture. "Sure," Zou Zheng replied.
After all, since Lin Fan was coming along, it did not matter if there was another person. Moreover, Manager Li could also play a role in restraining An Xuan.
"Thank you, Young Master Zou!" Manager Li said happily.
"By the way, Young Master Zou, do we have a place for today's dinner?"
"Imperial Hotel," Zou Zheng said.
Manager Li immediately gave him a thumbs up and praised, "The Imperial Hotel is the icon of Jiang Bei. It's also the most upscale restaurant. I've never been willing to go in and eat… As expected of Young Master Zou!"
Zou Zheng could not help but smile proudly. He thought to himself, 'It was indeed the right decision to let Manager Li come along!' Then, he did not forget to look at Lin Fan arrogantly.
Chapter 233 Faster and Safer!
When Lin Fan heard Zou Zheng's words, he had a strange look on his face.
Dinner at the Imperial Hotel?
Was that not his hotel?
Zou Zheng was having dinner at his hotel?
!
Manager Li did not notice the change in Lin Fan's expression at all. He said ingratiatingly, "Young Master Zou, my car is in front. Do you need me to drive you to the Imperial Hotel?"
"No need." Zou Zheng waved his hand. Then, he took out his car key and pressed it lightly.
Suddenly, the fiery red Porsche 911 in the distance lit up its taillights and let out a beep.
Manager Li praised again, "Porsche 911! F*ck, Young Master Zou, you're awesome!"
Zou Zheng could not help but reveal a smug smile again. He then said to An Xuan, "It's getting late. Lil Xuan, you should be very hungry, right? My Porsche 911 is faster and safer… I'll drive you to the Imperial Hotel."
"I'm not hungry yet," An Xuan said. "I'll just take my boyfriend's car."
As she spoke, her pretty face could not help but blush.
Obviously, she was still not used to the word 'boyfriend'.
Then, An Xuan got into Lin Fan's Santana as if she was escaping. 𝗯𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝐥.𝗻𝗲𝐭
Lin Fan did not hesitate and got into the driver's seat.
Zou Zheng looked at the ugly silhouette of the Santana and the pretty face of An Xuan from the car window, his face full of jealousy.
He slowly walked toward his Porsche 911.
After starting the engine…
Zou Zheng stepped on the accelerator, and the car sped forward like a roaring beast.
Zou Zheng was moving at top speed. He looked at the green belt that was constantly retreating on both sides and sneered, "Lin Fan, eat my dust!"
As he spoke, Zou Zheng could not help but glance at the rearview mirror.
He wanted to see the scene of Santana being completely left behind by him.
However, Zou Zheng could not find the Santana after searching for a while.
"It seems like I've already shaken you off.
You're so slow!" He grinned.
Then, he turned his attention back to the front.
However, at this moment, Zou Zheng's pupils suddenly constricted.
"What is it? How is that possible?"
He realized that the ugly Santana was right in front of him!
That was right… It was right in front of him.
"Humph! No matter how you got to the front, I'llsoon leave you far behind!"
Zou Zheng stepped on the accelerator, and the Porsche 911 immediately let out a beast-like roar.
However, on city roads, how could one increase the speed by simply stepping on the accelerator?
In front of Zou Zheng, there were cars on both sides of him. He could not overtake them and could only keep a distance from Lin Fan.
After driving through a few corners, he suddenly realized that the distance between him and the Santana did not shorten. Instead, it was getting longer and longer.
Seeing this…
Zou Zheng became extremely anxious.
Was he going to let the Santana stay ahead of him just like that?
No!
Absolutely not!
This was a disgrace!
Therefore, even though there were a few cars ahead, Zou Zheng still stepped on the gas pedal and prepared to overtake them.
Soon, he overtook one car, then two cars…
When Zou Zheng tried to overtake the third car, he accidentally crashed into the car next to him.
Bang!
Instantly, the entire front of the car was smashed into pieces.
In the car next to him, a man with a buzz cut walked out aggressively and shouted, "Do you even know how to drive? Do you think you're amazing just because you drive a Porsche?" Zou Zheng knew that he was in the wrong. Besides, he did not dare to refute the man when he saw his fierce expression. At this moment, Manager Li, who had been following behind, slowly parked the car beside them.
"Young Master Zou, are you alright?" he asked with concern.
At this moment, Lin Fan turn around from the front and walk to the side.
He looked like he was watching a show. He looked at the broken Porsche 911 and then his gaze fell on Zou Zheng.
It was as if he was saying, "Zou Zheng, is this the Porsche 911 that you said is safe and fast? Fortunately, I didn't let An Xuan sit in your car.' At this moment, silence was better than anything else!
Zou Zheng seemed to have read Lin Fan's expression, and his face turned red.
At this moment, an officer rode a motorcycle over from afar.
"What happened here?"
"He tried to overtake me by force and then hit me!" The man with the buzz cut pointed at Zou Zheng. "I have a dashcam." After investigating for a while, the officer quickly came to a conclusion and said to Zou Zheng, "You didn't follow the traffic rules. You'll take full responsibility. Three points will be deducted and you'll be fined 200 yuan."
...
At this moment, Zou Zheng only wanted to end this matter as soon as possible, so he nodded and said, "Alright!"
After the officer and the man with a buzz cut left, Zou Zheng turned to Manager Li and said, "Manager Li, lend me your car. Take my car to the repair shop."
Manager Li opened his mouth but did not immediately agree.
He was worried after seeing Zou Zheng's driving skills.
Zou Zheng's Da Tong Company was indeed a big client that his company needed to win over. However, he was just a manager of the company.
What if… Zou Zheng also crashed his own car?
Even if he managed to win a contract with Da Tong, it would still be a loss for him.
"Tsk!"
At this moment, a tow truck drove over from afar. "Young Master Zou, we'll get the tow truck to tow your Porsche 911 back," Manager Li said.
Zou Zheng did not think too much about it and nodded casually.
At this point, the car race and accident came to an end. When Zou Zheng, Lin Fan, and the others arrived at the Imperial Hotel, two men dressed in branded clothes were already waiting in the lobby. When Manager Li saw them, his eyes lit up slightly as he said happily, "Young Master Du, Young Master Pang, hello!"
...
However, the two of them did not seem to hear him. They only glanced at him indifferently and did not speak at all. Between them, Young Master Du, who was taller, scolded, "Zou Zheng, what's going on? You're so late!"
"Yeah, we've been waiting for a long time," Young Master Pang said.
Zou Zheng was also a little embarrassed. "There was an accident just now. In order to express my apology, I'll drink a big glass of wine to apologize to you later!" When the two of them heard this, they revealed a satisfied expression. Then, Zou Zheng led everyone to the front desk. During this time, he did not forget to look at Lin Fan provocatively.
It was as if he was saying, 'Kid, I'll let you experience such a high-end place today! I'll let you see the difference between us!' "Pretty lady, please arrange a private room for us." Zou Zheng said.
"I'm sorry, our private rooms have been booked," the receptionist said apologetically. Zou Zheng felt a little regretful. He turned to the crowd and said, "Shall we sit in the hall?"
At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded from afar.
Then, an extremely excited voice came from behind the group of people. "You're here?"
Chapter 234 Luxury Private Room; Order!
Zou Zheng, Lin Fan, and the others turned around when they heard the voice.
The waiter at the side said respectfully, "Hello, General Manager!"
Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master and the others were shocked.
Du, The general manager!
!
The general manager of the Imperial Hotel!
One had to know…
The Imperial Hotel was a landmark hotel in Jiangbei. It was extremely luxurious, and its construction price was probably more than ten billion!
The general manager of such a hotel was definitely an amazing big shot!
Even Zou Zheng's father could not compare to him.
Now, he had actually appeared in front of them!
Compared to the shock of the crowd, Lin Fan remained calm.
"The waiter just said that there are no more ordinary private rooms, right?" he asked. "I heard that the Imperial Hotel has a large luxury private room…
"Young Master Zou is treating today. He's the young master of Da Tong Company, so he's not short of money! There's no need to help him save money."
What kind of person was Wang Fengyi?
When he heard Lin Fan say that, he thought about it and reacted.
Young Master Zou was probably showing off, so Lin Fan did not want to expose his identity just yet.
Hence, Wang Fengyi said, "Young Master Zou, there's a luxurious private room on the 66th floor of our Imperial Hotel. You can go up now and watch the sunset. You can also enjoy the night view later. Shall I bring you up now?"
"What? Alright, then let's go up!"
Zou Zheng was stunned for a moment. He had never thought that a big shot like Wang Fengyi would be so polite to him.
He even wanted to personally bring them to the private room. 𝚋𝚎𝚍n𝚘v𝚎𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝
Sitting in the high-end elevator, if it was not for the number on the display screen increasing, everyone would not know that the elevator was going up. It was very smooth.
When the elevator door opened, the words 66F appeared in front of everyone.
Entering VIP Room 8, everyone looked at the spacious room, the brilliant diamond-shaped chandelier, and the luxurious tables and chairs… Other than Lin Fan, everyone else had a look of shock on their faces.
"Young Master Zou, are you satisfied with this private room?" Wang Fengyi asked.
Although he was asking Zou Zheng, his gaze was on Lin Fan.
When he saw Lin Fan nod his head, Wang Fengyi's face was filled with joy.
"I'm satisfied! I'm very satisfied!" Zou Zhengdao.
"Alright, I'll bring the menu over now!" Wang Fengyi said.
Then, he turned around and prepared to leave the private room.
Soon, he seemed to have thought of something and said, "By the way, the minimum cost for this VIP room is 88,888 yuan. Is that okay?"
88,888 yuan?
Zou Zheng's body trembled slightly.
One had to know…
His family's Da Tong Company was only worth a hundred million yuan.
This was the market value of the company. Their family's total assets were only tens of millions.
He had begged his parents at home for a long time before they agreed to buy the Porsche 911.
Zou Zheng's heart was bleeding from the collision earlier.
He wondered how much it would cost to repair the Porsche 911.
Now…
Eating in a private room with a minimum spend of 88,888 yuan?
88,888 yuan!
His monthly allowance was only 100,000 yuan.
What should he do after this meal?
However, he had already said that he was very satisfied with the private room.
Could it be that he was going to leave now?
Then what would Young Master Pang and Young Master Du think of him?
What would An Xuan think of him?
Thinking of this…
"No problem!" Zou Zheng finally gritted his teeth.
Wang Fengyi nodded and left the private room.
At this moment, Manager Li, who had been silent all this while, immediately gave him a thumbs up and praised, "A private room with a minimum spend of 88,888 yuan! Forget about eating here, I've never even heard of this private room before. Today, I've completely opened my eyes! Young Master Zou, you're amazing!"
Zou Zheng could not help but reveal a smug expression. "It's just 88,888 yuan. It's nothing! Of course, for some people, that might not be the case! This meal might be their annual income."
As he spoke, his gaze landed on Lin Fan.
"Zou Zheng, did your dad's Da Tong Company receive a big business deal recently?" Young Master Du asked. "Or have you hooked up with someone?"
...
Zou Zheng did not pay attention to the situation in his own company at all. He said vaguely, "Uhh… Did it? I don't know either."
"That must be the case! Otherwise, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel wouldn't have personally brought us to the private room after hearing Da Tong Company's name. Zou Zheng, no! Brother Zheng, if anything good happens to you in the future, don't forget us!" Young Master Pang said.
Young Master Du followed closely, "Yes!"
Don't forget about us!"
Then, he picked up the tea on the table and said, "Brother Zou Zheng, the wine hasn't been served yet. There's only a cup of tea here. Let me toast you first!"
"Yes, a toast to Brother Zou Zheng!" Young Master Pang also picked up his teacup. Zou Zheng listened to the two of them call him 'Brother Zheng' and looked at them seriously serving him tea. He was so happy.
He thought to himself, 'This 88,888 yuan is worth it!' Then, he picked up his teacup and said, "You're too polite!" Don't worry, I won't forget you in the future!"
At this moment, Wang Fengyi slowly walked in with a heavy menu.
In the past, Young Master Pang and Young Master Du would definitely not stand on ceremony and take the menu. Then, they would directly order according to their preferences.
However, today, they handed the menu to Zou Zheng and asked him to order.
Zou Zheng enjoyed this treatment very much. He ordered a few dishes that he liked and handed the menu to An Xuan. "Lil Xuan, you can order whatever you want to eat and drink!"
...
After saying that, he seemed to feel that it was not heroic enough and said, "The minimum spend is 88,888 yuan, but you don't have to order according to that standard. That's just the minimum spend." Zou Zheng's tone was calm.
It looked like 88,888 yuan was just a few yuan in his eyes.
He wanted to let An Xuan know how rich he was and how much of a superior life she could lead if she became his girlfriend. However…
What Zou Zheng did not know was that An Xuan had never been a vain person.
"I don't know how to order," she said lightly.
Lin Fan took the menu and said, "Then I'll order for you!"
An Xuan could not help but be stunned for a moment, but she did not say anything.
Lin Fan pointed at the menu and said, "I want this, this, and this."
After thinking for a moment, he muttered, "I heard Lil Xuan say that drinking good red wine can make one look good… But the wine here just seems so expensive…"
"Give me a bottle of the best red wine you have!" Zou Zheng waved his hand.
In his opinion, even the best red wine, such as Lafite… should only be tens of thousands of yuan.
Adding on the dishes that cost tens of thousands of yuan, the final price would be less than 100,000 yuan. It was completely affordable.
After all, the minimum cost of this private room was 88,888 yuan. However, he could use this opportunity to show his love for An Xuan in front of her. Zou Zheng could already see An Xuan falling in love with him and throwing herself at him.
235 Mr. Lin Greeted Him!
Then, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, and Manager Li also ordered a few dishes and a few bottles of wine.
Wang Fengyi noted down everyone's orders before leaving the private room.
It had to be said that the Imperial Hotel was indeed a landmark hotel in Jiangbei.
After a while, delicate-looking dishes that could even be said to have an artistic aura were served one after another.
Everyone looked at the dishes on the table and smelled the fragrance in the air. They could not help but drool.
However, Young Master Pang and Young Master Du suppressed the urge to taste the food. First, they poured a glass of Maotai each and said, "Brother Zou Zheng, let me toast you first."
Manager Li, who was at the side, also quickly raised his glass and said, "Young Master Zou Zheng, a toast to you."
So many people toasted him together, including Young Master Pang and Young Master Du Zou Zheng was so happy that he could not close his mouth. He said, "Hahaha! You're too polite, you're too polite!"
As he spoke, he also poured himself a glass of liquor and said, "Let's all drink!"
The four of them clinked their glasses lightly and downed the contents in one gulp.
Then, Zou Zheng looked at the Australian lobster on the table that was emitting wisps of smoke and was carved like an angel. He said, "Lil Xuan, this dish looks good. Do you want to try it?"
"Lil Xuan, Young Master Zou is so concerned about you. Why aren't you thanking him?" Manager Li chimed in.
Originally, An Xuan did not want to bother with Zou Zheng.
However, after hearing Manager Li's words, she could only say, "Thank you, Young Master Zou."
Then, she picked up her chopsticks and picked up a small piece of lobster meat before putting it in her mouth.
"Hahaha! Why are you being so polite with me?" Zou Zheng laughed.
At this moment, Wang Fengyi and a waiter walked in.
Wang Fengyi was holding a decanter, while the waiter was holding a bottle of red wine with English words written all over it.
"Young Master Zou, this is the red wine you wanted. Do you want to open it now?" Wang Fengyi asked.
"It's the best, isn't it?" Zou Zheng raised his head.
"That's right!" Wang Fengyi said.
Zou Zheng could not help but look at Lin Fan arrogantly.
It was as if he was saying, 'I can easily give Lil Xuan the best. What about you?'
"Alright, open it!" Zou Zheng said.
When the waiter heard this, he carefully opened it.
Boom!
With a soft sound, the cork was finally taken out.
Then, the waiter poured the dark red wine into the decanter.
Zou Zheng said. "This is the best wine in the Imperial Hotel. It's definitely good. Lil Xuan, try it."
"I don't know how to drink," An Xuan said.
"Lil Xuan, who doesn't drink when eating?" Manager Li asked.
"Besides, this is the red wine that Young Master Zou specially ordered for you. You have to drink some!"
As he spoke, Manager Li picked up the decanter and poured a glass of wine for An Xuan.
Then, he poured himself another glass of wine and said, "Look… I'm drinking it too! Everyone must drink it!"
In fact, this was just one of the reasons why he picked up the decanter to pour wine for An Xuan.
After all, Wang Fengyi had just said that this was the best red wine in the Imperial Hotel. Its price was probably tens of thousands of yuan per bottle.
How could he not drink such precious red wine?
Then, he poured a glass for Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, and Lin Fan.
This action was to fulfill what he had just said. Everyone had to drink.
Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, and the others were also curious about the best red wine in the Imperial Hotel.
They all raised their wine glasses and took a sip.
"Good wine!" they exclaimed.
"Delicious!"
"If it's good, then drink more," Zou Zheng said with a smile.
After saying that, he took a sip.
Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, Manager Li, and the others chatted with each other. The atmosphere in the private room was extremely lively.
Lin Fan was the only one sitting in the corner, eating quietly.
An Xuan felt that Lin Fan was too lonely and was being bullied by Zou Zheng. She could not help but feel bad.
Thus, An Xuan picked up her wine glass and whispered, "Thank you. Let me toast you."
In reality, how was Lin Fan lonely? To Lin Fan, not being disturbed while eating was a good thing.
As for being angered by Zou Zheng?
Lin Fan did not care at all.
However, he still put down his chopsticks in the face of An Xuan's toast and said, "You're welcome."
As he spoke, Lin Fan picked up the glass and swayed it gently.
...
Then, he gently poured the red wine into his mouth.
Lin Fan's series of actions were all seen by An Xuan.
In her eyes, Lin Fan did not seem to be wearing casual clothes and sitting in a noisy private room.
Instead, he had transformed into a noble in a luxurious black suit. He was sitting at a table that was more than ten meters long and leisurely tasting fine wine.
Lin Fan's movements were so elegant that An Xuan was a little mesmerized.
[Skill: Drinking Gentleman, full of charming aura!]
After drinking the wine, Lin Fan could not help but nod his head and say softly, "It's silky, sweet, and mellow. As expected of a bottle from Chateau Margaux."
Even though he did not look at the bottle,Lin Fan, who had Drinking Gentleman, only needed a sip to immediately recognize the origin of this bottle of wine.
After Lin Fan drank some soup, his stomach started to swell.
Hence, he got up and went to the washroom outside.
When Lin Fan came out of the washroom, he heard a surprised voice.
... 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮
When Lin Fan heard the voice, he could not help but turn around. He tried to recall where he had seen this person before.
Back then
Lin Fan accepted Chairman Da Ma and Chairman Xiao Ma's invitation. When he entered the venue of the internet conference, both chairmen had personally come up to him and shook hands.
Although it was just a quick glance,Lin Fan remembered that the middle-aged man in front of him now had sat next to him back then.
Even though Lin Fan recognized him, he did not know his name at all.
Thus, he asked in a slightly puzzled tone, "And you are?"
The middle-aged man said excitedly, "Mr. Lin, I attended the internet conference in Jiangbei. I saw you at the conference. My name is Jiang Cheng."
No wonder he was so excited.
Back then, Chairman Da Ma and Chairman Xiao Ma had personally stepped down from the stage to shake hands with Lin Fan and greet him.
Jiang Cheng was extremely shocked.
After all
Chairman Da Ma and Chairman Xiao Ma… They could be said to be the supreme big shots of the internet industry in the country.
If even two supreme beings had to take the initiative to welcome this young man, then what sort of status did Lin Fan have?
It could be said that Lin Fan's appearance had been carved into the depths of Jiang Cheng's mind.
He wanted to meet Lin Fan again.
If he could establish a relationship with Lin Fan, it would be a great thing for him.
Unexpectedly…
Today, it had become reality!
Lin Fan looked like he had just realized something and said, "So, it's you, Mr. Jiang. Hello."
When Jiang Chengyan heard this, his slightly weathered face flushed with excitement.
Mr. Lin actually greeted him!
236 Toast; Suspicion!
In contrast to Jiang Cheng's excitement, Lin Fan remained calm.
Lin Fan continued chatting for a while before turning around and leaving.
Jiang Cheng stood at the same spot and looked at Lin Fan respectfully. When Lin Fan walked into the room, he slowly retracted his gaze.
At this moment, Jiang Cheng suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to give Lin Fan his name card. He was filled with regret.
Thus, Jiang Cheng hurriedly walked toward his private room and prepared to pick up his glass to give a toast to Lin Fan in his private room. He would also hand over his name card.
…
At this moment, in the big private room.
A few men in suits and leather shoes asked with concern when they saw Jiang Cheng return, "President Jiang, are you okay?"
Obviously, they thought that Jiang Cheng had drunk too much and went to the bathroom to throw up.
Jiang Cheng waved his hand. "I'm fine. I just met a friend. I'll go and give him a toast first!"
As he spoke, he picked up his glass and a bottle of Maotai. He was about to walk out.
In the private room, someone immediately stood up.
"President Jiang's friend is also my friend. I'll also go over and make a toast!"
"I'll go too!"
"Let's go together!"
After one person spoke, everyone quickly stood up.
"No need, I'll be back soon" Jiang Cheng said hesitantly. "The main thing is that you don't know each other"
That was because he did not know if they would disturb Lin Fan or even make him unhappy if so many people went to toast him.
If it was any other time, everyone would know that Jiang Cheng did not want them to follow him.
However, everyone had drunk too much, so their reactions were slower by half a beat.
"So what?" Someone laughed. "We'll get to know each other after a drink!"
Then, everyone continued to walk outside.
When Jiang Cheng saw thisHe knew that he could not persuade them.
In addition, he felt that it was not a bad choice to let everyone go over and toast together.
This was because it would show Lin Fan even more respect.
"Alright, let's go together, then." Jiang Cheng reminded them, "However, don't make a racket later. You have to maintain sufficient courtesy and respect! Don't undermine him just because he's young!"
Although everyone drank a little too much,when they heard Jiang Cheng's clear and serious reminder, they all understood that the person who they were going to toast later probably had a powerful background.
Therefore, everyone immediately put away their playful thoughts and nodded repeatedly.
After a while, they arrived at the door of VIP Room 8. Jiang Cheng first tidied his clothes before slowly knocking on the door.
…
Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, Manager Li, and the others were drinking and chatting happily.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Is there still food?" Zou Zheng asked curiously. "Come in!"
Creak!
Then, Jiang Cheng and a large group of people walked in with glasses and a bottle of Maotai.
Jiang Cheng first swept his gaze across the private room. When he saw Lin Fan's figure, his face could not help but reveal a hint of respect.
"Knowing that you're here, I felt that I had to come over and offer a toast. Otherwise, it would be a little rude I hope I'm not disturbing you," Jiang Cheng said carefully.
"It's fine," Lin Fan said casually.
When Jiang Chengyan heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he raised his glass and proposed a toast.
"Who are you?" Zou Zheng asked.
Initially, Jiang Cheng was still thinking about how he should pass his name card to Lin Fan.
At this moment, after hearing Zou Zheng's words, he was slightly happy and said, "I'm Jiang Cheng from the internet industry."
After saying that, he took out the business cards he had prepared and gave them to Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, Lin Fan, Manager Li, An Xuan, and the others.
To Jiang Cheng, anyone who could eat with Lin Fan must have an extraordinary status.
Therefore, his attitude was always very respectful.
When the people standing behind Jiang Cheng saw this, they also handed over their business cards and introduced themselves.
"I'm Zheng Wenxiang from Qingzhou Information."
"I'm Liu Kui from Aishang Technology."
"I'm Wang Handong from Jiahua Software."
…
Jiang Cheng was extremely excited when he saw Lin Fan accept his name card. He raised his glass and said, "This toast is to you!"
After saying that, he directly downed the contents of the glass in one gulp.
Then, he poured himself another glass of Maotai and said, "This glass is for everyone!" He drank another full glass.
Zheng Wenxiang and the others behind him did not dare to hesitate at all. They drank the contents in their glasses one after another and said, "To everyone!"
...
Even though Jiang Cheng wished he could stay with Lin Fan forever, he knew that going too far was as bad as not being able to do enough.
If Lin Fan was annoyed by this, then it would be too late for regrets.
Therefore, Jiang Cheng said, "I won't disturb you anymore"
After saying that, he and the others slowly retreated.
It was also at this moment that Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, Manager Li, and the others finally recovered from their doubts.
They all lowered their heads to look at the business cards.
It did not matter if they had not taken a look, but after they did, their eyes widened!
Jiang Cheng, the CEO of Usual Network!
Zheng Wenxiang, the CEO of Qingzhou Information!
The CEO of Aishang Technology, Liu Kui! 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
Wang Handong, the CEO of Jiahua Software!
...
…
The group of people just now were all the presidents of various companies!
Young Master Du pointed at a business card and shouted, "F*ck! I know Aishang Technology. I heard that their company is about to be listed on the A-share market!"
They were a company that was about to be listed on the A-share market. Just this sentence alone easily showed the strength of Aishang Technology.
"Qingzhou Information seems to have thousands of employees!" Young Master Pang shouted.
"Also… the super popular games from last year seem to have been developed by them!"
The two of them shouted repeatedly, their faces filled with surprise.
These companies were all very large, and their chairmen… They actually came to their private room to give a toast?
This…
This… It had completely exceeded their imagination.
One had to know
Even their fathers were not qualified to be sitting in this position!
They would even toast the chairmen instead!
What was going on now?
Young Master Pang and Young Master Du looked at each other and then turned to look at Zou Zheng.
"Brother Zou Zheng, could it be that your Da Tong Company has reached a close cooperation with Little Tanuki or Penguin?" Young Master Pang could not help but ask.
It was no wonder that they were so suspicious.
Usual Network, Qingzhou Information, Aishang Technology Company, Jiahua Software These were all internet companies.
The people who could make the chairmen of these Internet companies personally curry favor could only be large internet companies or companies related to them.
Young Master Du and Young Master Pang knew about their families' situation, which was why they suspected Zou Zheng's family.
After all, they had already suspected that Zou Zheng had found a strong backer. Otherwise, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel would not have personally served them.
237 The Identity of the Person They Toasted; Shocking!
Zou Zheng looked at Young Master Du and Young Master Pang's excited and worshipful expressions. He was completely smug and believed it!
That was right!
It must be that his family had reached a close cooperation with super giants such as Little Tanuki and Penguin.
Therefore, the chairmen of those internet companies came over to toast him after learning from the general manager of the Imperial Hotel that he was eating in this private room!
Zou Zheng grinned. "A while ago, my dad did say that he wanted to work with some big companies, but I didn't ask which companies they were."
Zou Zheng said.
Young Master Du and Young Master Pang's faces immediately revealed an expression that seemed to say, 'As expected.'
"Brother Zou Zheng, you have to take care of me in the future!" Young Master Du said.
"Brother Zou Zheng, please take care of me!" Young Master Pang said.
"No problem!" Zou Zheng laughed.
Young Master Du and Young Master Pang were very happy when they heard this.
Then, they raised their glasses and said, "Brother Zou Zheng, let me toast you!"
Compared to Young Master Du and Young Master Pang's excitement, Manager Li's face was filled with confusion.
Zou Zheng's family's Da Tong Company was a snack company. Its scale was only average, and its market value was only slightly more than 100 million.
The companies owned by that group of people were all very large in scale. Their market value was probably in the hundreds of millions or billions… It might even be more than billions!
Why would a group of big bosses come personally to toast Zou Zheng?
Even if Zou Zheng went to toast them, they might not respond.
As for Zou Zheng's family's Da Tong Company having a deep partnership with Little Tanuki or Penguin, that was even more impossible.
When had one ever heard of an elephant and an ant becoming good friends?
Was that not a joke?
They were not on the same level at all, alright?
Then, Manager Li could not help but slowly recall the scene when the group of directors came in. Chairman Jiang Cheng, who was standing at the front, seemed to have been talking to the left
Zou Zheng was on the right, and the person on the left was…
Manager Li's gaze landed on Lin Fan, and his expression changed.
It had to be said that Manager Li was indeed someone who had been in the workplace for many years. His observation and analysis skills were far superior to ordinary people.
After a while, Manager Li hesitated and said, "Cough cough, I've been forgetting to ask. You are…"
Lin Fan put his chopsticks aside and replied casually, "I'm Lil Xuan's boyfriend, Lin Fan."
"So, you're Mr. Lin. I wonder what kind of job you do?" Manager Li asked.
"I drive on DiDi," Lin Fan said.
Zou Zheng, Young Master Du, and Young Master Pang heard their conversation.
Instantly, Zou Zheng looked at Lin Fan with disdain.
Manager Li was stunned by Lin Fan's reply.
DiDi?
Could it be that this rich second-generation heir was pretending to be low-key?
Manager Li thought for a moment and said, "So, you're Lil Xuan's boyfriend. I wonder what your parents do for a living?"
Hearing this, An Xuan pricked up her ears.
She seemed to be curious about this question as well.
"They run a small clothing store in Qing City," Lin Fan said.
Manager Li heard Lin Fan's normal reply and was stunned.
From Lin Fan's expression, it did not seem like he was lying.
In other words, he was really just an ordinary driver with no big background.
The chairmen really did come because of Zou Zheng!
Perhaps Da Tong Company really got their hands on an incredible opportunity!
Zou Zheng saw that Manager Li was chatting with Lin Fan. He frowned and asked, "Why? Are you fond of him, Manager Li?"
Manager Li could easily hear the unhappiness in Zou Zheng's tone. He shifted his eyes and said obsequiously, "Yeah, I think Lin Fan is tall and strong. He's very suitable to be a security guard in our company" be𝚍nove𝚕.com
Now that Manager Li had confirmed Lin Fan's identity, he sided with Zou Zheng without any hesitation.
"Security guard? Haha! Needless to say, this job is very suitable for him! Lin Fan, when the time comes, I'll ask their company's CEO to give you a salary of 5,000 yuan. How about it? It's a higher salary than what you're getting now, no?"
Zou Zheng laughed.
Lin Fan glanced at the two of them and said calmly, "I think you guys are more suitable to be security guards."
"Hahaha! Is that so? But I'm afraid I won't have this chance in my life!" Zou Zheng laughed like he had just heard the biggest joke in the world.
…
On the other hand, Jiang Cheng led the other chairmen out of VIP Room 8 and returned to their own private room.
At this moment, the short and fat Zheng Wenxiang could not help but ask, "President Jiang, who exactly is the person we just toasted…"
All the chairmen in the private room pricked up their ears.
...
Obviously, they were also very curious about this.
The people in VIP Room 8 were all too young.
The only person who was slightly older looked like an ordinary manager.
When Jiang Cheng heard Zheng Wenxiang's question, he could not help but think of the scene at the internet conference where Chairman Da Ma and Chairman Xiao Ma personally came down from the stage to shake hands with Lin Fan and greet him.
At the same time, he recalled the scene of Lin Fan accepting his name card. He was so excited that his heart was beating faster.
What if
If Lin Fan was interested in him, it would be a huge opportunity for him!
"You all attended the internet conference in Jiangbei, didn't you?" Jiang Cheng asked excitedly.
"We did," all the chairmen answered.
The confusion on their faces deepened. What did those young people have to do with the internet conference?
"Then do you remember when Chairman Da Ma and Chairman Xiao Ma were speaking on stage, they suddenly stepped down to welcome a young man and took the initiative to shake his hand?" Jiang Cheng asked.
...
The chairmen seemed to have thought of something. Their pupils constricted slightly as they said in surprise, "You mean"
"That Mr. Lin in the white casual outfit earlier is that young man!" Jiang Cheng nodded.
All the chairmen gasped when they heard this.
They knew very well what it meant for top-notch big shots like Chairman Da Ma and Chairman Xiao Ma to personally welcome someone
However, they were sitting quite far away, so they did not see Lin Fan's appearance clearly.
However, that did not mean that they did not pay attention to Lin Fan.
On the contrary
After the internet conference, they had been asking about Lin Fan.
Furthermore, some people knew that because of Lin Fan, there was an unprecedented gathering of a group of internet big shots like Chairman Da Ma, Chairman Xiao Ma, the chairman of Weibo, the chairman of Buying, and the chairman of Hungry! Some people even called it a trillion-dollar gathering!
All of this showed that Lin Fan's status was extraordinary. He was definitely a super big shot!
As for themselves Just now, they gave this big shot They toasted and handed over their name cards?
Just thinking about it the chairmen were excited!
238 Another Bottle; Reason!
VIP Room 8.
Zou Zheng, Young Master Du, Young Master Pang, Manager Li, and the others chatted as they ate, occasionally letting out a hearty laughter.
After Young Master Pang finished the last drop of red wine, he smacked his lips and praised again, "As expected of the best red wine in the Imperial Hotel!"
"Young Master Pang likes it, so let's have another bottle!" Zou Zheng smiled.
After saying that, he turned to press the service button.
After a while, General Manager Wang Fengyi walked in.
"Is there anything you need?" Wang Fengyi smiled as he looked at Lin Fan.
"Give me another bottle of this red wine!" Zou Zheng waved his hand.
His thinking was simple. A bottle of red wine was worth just 40,000 to 50,000 yuan.
The dishes on the table were estimated to be only 10,000 to 20,000 yuan.
It was still far from reaching the point where the minimum expenditure was 88,888 yuan.
A bottle of the same red wine would only bring up the cost to a little more than 100,000 yuan.
In addition, his family had already reached a close cooperation with giant companies such as Penguin and Little Tanuki. Buying an extra bottle of wine was nothing at all.
When Wang Fengyi heard this, a strange expression appeared on his face. He asked, "Another bottle of red wine?"
"That's right!" Zou Zheng replied.
After Wang Fengyi received confirmation, he finally nodded and said, "Alright."
After a while, a bottle of the same red wine was brought in by the waiter.
Then, he carefully poured it into the decanter.
After a round of drinking
Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, Manager Li, and the others walked out.
During this time, Zou Zheng even deliberately glanced at Lin Fan from the corner of his eye. Lin Fan seemed to be a little listless as he followed behind him. 'Kid, now you know the difference between us, right?'
Ding!
The elevator went down quickly. After a soft sound, it slowly opened.
Then, Zou Zheng took the lead and strode toward the cashier in the lobby.
The next moment, his eyes fell on a middle-aged man in a black suit in the hall.
"Dad!" Zou Zheng exclaimed in surprise.
Right now, the thing he wanted to do the most was to hurry home and ask his father who Da Tong Company was working with. He did not expect to meet his father before he even reached home.
Zou Daqiang was surprised to see his son here.
One had to know
This was the Imperial Hotel, and the expenses were very high.
Even Zou Daqiang would only choose the Imperial Hotel for important business events.
"Why are you here?" Daqiang Zou asked.
Zou Zheng said, "I'm treating a few friends to a meal Dad, I have something to ask you. Is our family going to start working with some big companies?"
Zou Daqiang thought of the people he invited for today's dinner and nodded slowly. "That's possible."
"Hahaha! Really?" Zou Zheng shouted excitedly, "Is it Little Tanuki or Penguin?"
Young Master Du, Young Master Pang, Manager Li, and the others who were standing at the side also revealed a touch of excitement and pricked up their ears.
Zou Daqiang frowned. "Little Tanuki? Penguin? Our family isn't an internet company!"
There was still something he did not say in his heart. How could these giant companies cooperate with a small company like theirs?
Zou Zheng was stunned.
No?
Then why would the general manager of the Imperial Hotel personally serve him?
Why would the chairmen of those internet companies come over to toast him?
"Brother Lin Fan!"
At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly sounded from afar.
Then, a group of men and women in suits and leather shoes, who exuded an extraordinary aura, quickly walked over from afar.
Liu Yuhang, the young master of Liu Pharmaceuticals, Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, Manager Li, and Song Ping, the chairman of An Xuan's company, were all among them.
The surprised voice came from Liu Yuhang.
"Young Master Liu, Chairman Zhang… Hello!" Zou Daqiang said respectfully.
"Hello, Chairman Song," Manager Li and An Xuan hurriedly said.
When Song Ping saw the two of them, he could not help but reveal a hint of surprise.
However, he ignored the two of them.
It was because he still had more important things to do. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝑚
That was to accompany the people around him.
They were extremely important to the company!
...
"We just met in Qing City a while ago, and now we meet again in Jiangbei! Hahaha!"
As he spoke, Liu Yuhang placed his hand on Lin Fan's shoulder.
Zhang Zhou, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Lin."
Instantly, everyone's attention fell on Lin Fan.
Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, Manager Li, and the others had a bad feeling.
"You… Who exactly are you?" Zou Zheng could not help but ask.
"Young Master Zou, you're really forgetful. Am I not just a driver? Oh, I forgot that you and Manager Li agreed that I'm the most suitable person to be a security guard."
Everyone present was smart. How could they not understand the meaning behind Lin Fan's words?
Immediately, Zhang Zhou, Liu Yuhang, Zou Daqiang, Song Ping, and the others turned their gazes to Zou Zheng and Manager Li.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became extremely heavy.
"In Brother Lin Fan's hotel, you said that Brother Lin Fan is the most suitable to be a security guard?" Liu Yuhang asked coldly. "Brother Lin Fan, I'm afraid you've never experienced something like this before, have you?"
...
Hearing this, Zou Daqiang, Song Ping, Zou Zheng, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, and the others felt their hearts pounding.
At Brother Lin Fan's hotel?
In other words
The Imperial Hotel Was it Lin Fan's?
As if to verify everyone's guess, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel, Wang Fengyi, walked over from afar and said respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Lin."
It was also at this moment that the elevator door opened.
Jiang Cheng, the chairman of Usual Network, Zheng Wenxiang, the chairman of Qingzhou Information, and the other people who had gone to VIP room 8 to toast strolled out.
When they saw Lin Fan in the distance, they quickened their pace.
"Greetings, Mr. Lin."
At this moment
Zou Zheng, Manager Li, Young Master Pang, Young Master Du, and the others finally understood.
They finally understood why the general manager of the Imperial Hotel had personally served everyone. That was because Lin Fan was the owner of the Imperial Hotel!
They also understood why the group of chairmen had come to the private room to toast them. It was because Lin Fan had an extraordinary status!
It was not Zou Zheng's Da Tong Company at all.
239 Apologize; Are We Going Bankrupt?
This slap was very loud and reverberated in the lobby of the Imperial Hotel.
The left side of Zou Zheng's face quickly turned red and swollen.
It was this slap that made Zou Zheng realize that he had offended someone he should not have.
Hence, Zou Zheng said in a panic, "Yes I'm sorry. Lin… Mr. Lin."
Song Ping, who had been standing at the side without saying a word, shouted in a low voice, "Li Xiong! Quickly apologize to Mr. Lin!"
At this moment, how much did Song Ping wish that Li Xiong was his son?
If that was the case, he could also slap Li Xiong's face to vent his anger.
Manager Li was so frightened that his entire body trembled. A layer of cold sweat instantly seeped out of his forehead as he stuttered, "Lin… Mr. Lin… I'm sorry."
At this moment, other than panic, Manager Li also felt endless regret.
He had clearly noticed that Jiang Cheng was toasting Lin Fan. WhyWhy did he have to mock Lin Fan?
Lin Fan did not care about the thoughts of the two of them at all.
"You guys still want to eat, right?" he said casually. "I've already finished eating, so I'll be leaving first."
Then, he turned to An Xuan, who was completely stunned. He said, "Let's go."
"Ah Ah…" An Xuan replied stiffly. Then, like a wooden puppet, she followed Lin Fan out.
After Lin Fan left, the atmosphere in the Imperial Hotel became even more depressing.
Zou Daqiang's throat squirmed, and he finally opened his mouth to say, "I… Why don't we go to the private room to eat first?"
"Eat? Hah!" Liu Yuhang laughed coldly and turned to leave.
Xiao Wu Wholesale City's chairman, Zhang Zhou, and a large group of people followed closely behind.
Song Ping watched as everyone left, his entire body trembling with anger.
His company was at an important stage now. How much effort did he put in to have today's dinner so that the company had a chance?
In the end In the end, it was all gone now!
"Li Xiong, from now on, you're no longer the manager of the company. You're fired!" he shouted sternly.
Li Xiong's face instantly turned pale.
He had been in the company for many years before he got his current position.
It was also this job that allowed Li Xiong to support his mortgage and car loans.
Now… it was gone?
Li Xiong said anxiously, "C-Chairman, please… Please, give me another chance."
However, Song Ping ignored him and strode out.
Zou Daqiang coldly glanced at Zou Zheng, who was drooping his head.
If he could, he would have done the same as Song Ping and abandoned Zou Zheng.
However…
No!
He could not do that because Zou Zheng was his son!
His only son!
Zou Daqiang took a deep breath and said, "You only know how to cause trouble. Hurry up and go home!"
"Okay, Dad," Zou Zheng replied.
At this moment, Wang Fengyi suddenly said, "I'm sorry, you can't leave yet."
"Oh?" Zou Daqiang could not help but feel puzzled.
"Your son hasn't paid yet," said Wang Fengyi.
"How much is it?" Zou Zheng asked in a low voice.
As he spoke, he was about to take out his phone.
"It's a total of 2,352,168 yuan," Wang Fengyi said.
"How… How much?" Zou Zheng's body trembled as he asked.
Wang Fengyi took out the bill and said, "The Australian lobster is 3,888 yuan, the iced bird's nest is 488 yuan Drinks are 2,216,880 yuan."
"Why are the drinks so expensive? I only drank a few bottles of Maotai and two bottles of red wine!" Zou Zheng shouted.
"Because you ordered two bottles of our best 1945 Chateau Margaux red wine," Wang Fengyi said.
"Wasteful!" Zou Daqiang shouted. Then, he raised his hand and slapped Zou Zheng's face again.
Immediately, the right side of Zou Zheng's face turned red and swollen. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝑡
…
Naturally, Lin Fan had no idea what was happening in the Imperial Hotel.
He drove the Santana and soon arrived at a dilapidated neighborhood.
Lin Fan looked at the familiar buildings in the district and had a strange expression on his face.
That was because Lin Fan had lived here before he got the system.
He could still clearly remember how annoying his landlady, Wang Siqin, was.
...
An Xuan seemed to have just recovered from the incident at the Imperial Hotel at this time. She said softly, "Thank you for today"
Lin Fan said casually, "You're welcome. It's just a small matter."
An Xuan opened her cherry-like mouth again as if she wanted to say something.
However, she could not say it out loud in the end and walked toward the dilapidated building.
Lin Fan did not care too much about it, but it seemed like he felt that the car was a little stuffy.
Hence, he got out of the driver's seat and took two deep breaths.
Then, Lin Fan turned his attention to the mission system.
[Mission: Complete five special orders. Reward: Five golden packets. Progress: 2/5]
Seeing this
Lin Fan's lips curled up as he muttered in his heart, "As expected The order just now was also a special order!
"Huh? Lin Fan?" At this moment, an ear-piercing sound came from behind.
...
Even though Lin Fan had not turned around, he knew the owner of this voice. It was his former landlady, Wang Siqin.
"Didn't you drive a car worth tens of millions a while ago?" Wang Siqin sneered. "Why is it a Santana now?
"By the way, why did you come to our neighborhood? Why, do you want to rent a house again? We still have an empty house, but the price is 100 yuan a month more than before!"
At this moment, Wang Siqin could be said to be very carefree.
Back then, when Wang Siqin saw Lin Fan driving a sports car worth tens of millions and a pile of property ownership certificates, she was so envious and jealous that she could not sleep.
Today, she saw Lin Fan drive a Santana to the entrance of the residential area. The envy and jealousy she had in the past immediately disappeared like smoke.
What replaced it was schadenfreude!
Honk!
Before Lin Fan could say anything, a honk sounded from not far away.
Then, a BMW 530LI stopped steadily beside them.
Han Tian walked over with her long white legs and said happily, "I thought I was seeing things. So it's really you, Lin Fan!"
When she called out Lin Fan's name, her voice became sweeter.
"I was planning to look for you tomorrow. I didn't expect to meet you today."
"You're looking for me?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
"Yes, we've already collected the rent for the 132 units in Washington Palace and the 1,058 units in Zhenhu Yuting that you rented out through Lianjia. I've made a form with the specific details. If there's no problem, I can get the finance department to transfer the money to you."
As soon as she said this …
Wang Siqin, who was standing at the side, immediately opened her mouth wide and stood rooted to the ground.
240 If You Struggle to Reach a Cooperate, Say You Know Me!
132 houses in Washington Palace?
Washington Palace was the best school district in Jiangbei. The houses there were priced at 50,000 yuan per square meter, and he had 132 houses. How much did they cost?
Just the rent alone was definitely a large sum of money!
As for Zhenhu Yuting, it was a famous mansion area in Jiangbei. Each unit was worth at least five million yuan. 1,058 units? How much was that?
How much could he get from collecting rent?
Wang Siqin's brain went completely blank.
As if to answer Wang Siqin's question, Han Tian continued, "The three months' rent of Washington Palace is 1,298,800 yuan.
"The three months' rent of Zhenhu Yuting is 10,212,880 yuan."
As Han Tian spoke, she took out a stack of documents from the car.
Hearing this, Wang Siqin found it difficult to breathe.
1.29 million, 10.21 million!
She had never seen so much money in her life, and this was only three months of rent that Lin Fan collected?
Lin Fan did not look at the document. "Why do we need to look at this? It's getting late. How about having some supper?"
Lin Fan did not care about this bit of money at all.
After all, the money he earned every day when he woke up was more than the rent for the past three months.
Seeing how much Lin Fan believed her, Han Tian's heart was filled with sweetness. She smiled and said, "Sure."
Then, the two of them ignored Wang Siqin, who was standing at the side like a stone, and got into their respective cars. They stepped on the accelerator and sped off into the distance.
The two of them did not choose a high-end restaurant for supper. Instead, they came to Han Tian's house at her invitation.
Han Tian's house was very clean and tidy. The white-painted walls and the black-painted door frame made the whole house look modern and simple.
When they got home, she personally cooked for Lin Fan.
Then, she prepared a plate of fresh fruits.
Lin Fan played with the wet grapes and said, "Have you ever eaten imported fruits?"
"Imported fruits?" Han Tian was stunned. She did not understand why Lin Fan would ask this.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "You'll have the chance to try it today."
After saying that, he put the grape into his mouth and moved closer to Han Tian.
o(*)
(*3)(*)
? (?)
Outside the curtain, the rain was falling, and the spring was waning.
It was a sleepless night.
…
Lin Fan ate his breakfast slowly and then went downstairs to start his relaxed life.
He had only opened DiDi for a short while when he received an order.
It was just an ordinary office worker. After he got into the car and gave Lin Fan the address, hequietly played with his phone.
As Lin Fan expected, this was not a special order.
Then, Lin Fan started to drive leisurely on the wide road.
Ding!
At this moment, his phone vibrated slightly, and another order appeared.
Lin Fan turned the steering wheel and soon arrived at the location.
At this moment, two men were waiting at the side. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒏𝙚𝙩
When Lin Fan caught sight of them, he was stunned for a moment.
That was because the younger man was someone Lin Fan knew. It was his high school classmate whom he had not seen for a long time Liu Gonglu.
In high school, Lin Fan and Liu Gonglu even sat at the same table for a short period of time.
"Liu Gonglu!" Lin Fan shouted.
Liu Gonglu did not notice Lin Fan at first.
At this moment After hearing the voice, he also cried out in surprise, "Lin Fan, haha! Why is it you? We haven't seen each other for a long time!"
"Yeah, I haven't seen you since we graduated from high school," Lin Fan said.
"By the way, didn't I hear that you're studying at Jiangbei University? Why are you driving on DiDi now?" Liu Gonglu asked.
"I'm just driving it for fun," said Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was not spouting nonsense.
On the one hand, he was indeed doing it to complete the mission.
On the other hand, he did it for fun.
Especially after the incident of pretending to be someone's boyfriend yesterday, Lin Fan felt that it was even more interesting.
However, Lin Fan's words had another meaning in Liu Gonglu's ears.
...
A while ago, Liu Gonglu had heard from his classmates that Lin Fan was the most well-hidden second-generation heir in his class and that he was studying at Jiangbei University.
Now, it seemed that this matter was not true.
No wonder Liu Gonglu thought so.
After all, which university student would come out and drive on DiDi?
Moreover, it was during class time.
As for being a rich second-generation heir? That was even more impossible.
That was right!
There were indeed some rich second-generation heirs who drove on DiDi to experience life.
In reality?
They usually drove Porsches, Bentleys, and other luxury cars. How was that experiencing life? It was simply to show off and get girls!
Which rich second-generation heir would drive a Santana?
...
However, Liu Gonglu did not dwell on this matter. He said, "During the New Year, I saw in the group that the form teacher was hospitalized. Unfortunately, I was still working outside the city at that time I wonder if the form teacher is feeling better."
"Don't worry, the form teacher is fine. He was discharged a while ago," Lin Fan said.
"That's great," said Liu Gonglu with a sigh of relief.
At this moment, a man in a black suit who was also sitting in the car frowned and said, "Alright, you guys can talk later. Now, hurry up and drive.
"We still have important things to do later!"
Liu Gonglu's figure turned solemn. Only then did he remember that his leader was sitting beside him. He quickly said, "Yes, Manager Zhao."
Lin Fan did not say anything else. He stepped on the accelerator and sped forward.
The journey was light and smooth.
Not long after, a towering building appeared in front of them.
Lin Fan was extremely familiar with this building.
This was because this was the Feiyang Building where Flower Stem was located.
When Manager Zhao and Liu Gonglu saw Feiyang Building, they straightened their clothes and their expressions became extremely solemn.
When the two of them were about to get out of the car, Lin Fan asked, "Liu Gonglu, why are you going to Feiyang Building?"
"We're here to fight for a cooperation with Flower Stem…" Liu Gonglu said.
Lin Fan's face revealed a strange expression. Fighting for cooperation with Flower Stem?
One had to know
Lin Fan was the biggest shareholder of Flower Stem.
It was basically his own company.
Lin Fan said, "If you're struggling, just say that you know me."
After all, Liu Gonglu used to be a good classmate.
From the conversation just now, he realized that he was still the same as beforea good person.
Therefore, it was not a big deal to help him a little.
Liu Gonglu was slightly stunned.
If he could not get Flower Stem to cooperate, he could say that he knew Lin Fan?
Why did Lin Fan say this?
At this moment, Manager Zhao, who was walking in front, said angrily, "Liu Gonglu, what are you still standing there for? It's almost the appointed time. Do you still want to do business?"
Liu Gonglu's heart tightened. He nodded at Lin Fan and quickly caught up to Manager Zhao.
241 You Know Lin Fan?
Liu Gonglu and Manager Zhao practically jogged all the way into Feiyang Building.
Then, they quickly took the elevator and went straight to the main entrance of Flower Stem.
The beautiful woman sitting at the front desk smiled and said, "May I ask what you need?"
Manager Zhao said, "Hello, I'm Zhao Haibo from Qingkong Company. We have an appointment with your company's Director Qu today to discuss the matter of Flower Stem's channel."
The receptionist looked at the record on the computer and said, "Mr. Zhao, Director Qu has arranged for you to meet in Conference Room 2. This way, please."
After saying that, she walked in front and led Manager Zhao and Liu Gonglu inside.
"Sorry to trouble you," said Zhao Haibo.
Creak!
When he pushed open the door of the meeting room, there was already someone sitting inside.
"Mr. Zhao, please wait a moment. Director Qu will be here soon," the receptionist said.
"Alright," Zhao Haibo said.
After the receptionist left, the middle-aged man who was already sitting inside smiled and said, "Why, if it isn't Manager Zhao from Qingkong Company? I just finished talking to Director Qu and you came over? The timing is quite accurate."
Zhao Haibo's expression became a little ugly when he heard this. He said, "Did you talk to Director Qu?"
The middle-aged man was Chen Meng, the department manager of Runfeng Company. 𝚋𝚎dno𝚟𝚎l.n𝚎𝚝
Runfeng Company and Qingkong Company had always had a strong competitive relationship.
Chen Meng's purpose for coming to Flower Stem was self-evident.
"Of course, I have." Chen Meng smiled proudly. "Moreover, Director Qu is very satisfied with our Runfeng Company."
Creak!
At this moment, the door of Conference Room 2 was slowly pushed open. A middle-aged man of medium build strode in.
Zhao Haibo, Chen Meng, and Liu Gonglu's hearts suddenly tightened. They said in unison, "Hello, Director Qu."
If it was a year ago, no, three months ago
When they saw Director Qu, they would at most treat him as an equal. How could they be so respectful like now?
On the contrary, it was Director Qu who should curry favor with them.
This was because Runfeng Company and Qingkong Company were even larger than Flower Stem back then.
In addition to the fact that Runfeng Company and Qingkong Company were handling the sales channels and promotions, Director Qu still had to work hard to build good relationships with Zhao Haibo, Chen Meng, and the others.
However
In just three months, the status of Flower Stem had changed drastically.
Flower Stem's perfume and essence, especially the essence, were too popular. As long as their products entered the market, they would be sold out in an instant.
As a result, the scale of Flower Stem expanded rapidly, and the distribution companies scrambled to reach a partnership with Flower Stem.
That was because possessing Flower Stem meant possessing popularity and wealth.
"Hello, everyone." Director Qu nodded.
Then, Director Qu looked at his watch and said, "I have a meeting in about ten minutes. If it's possible, Manager Zhao, you'd better tell me the details of your company's cooperation in ten minutes."
"Alright," Zhao Haibo quickly said.
Then, Zhao Haibo took out a stack of information and quickly explained.
About ten minutes later
Director Qu said, "Manager Zhao, I have to say something first Before you came, I had already reached a verbal agreement with Runfeng Company.
"Your company's conditions are not bad. However, I'm not convinced that I should give up my initial plan and cooperate with you guys instead. Therefore, I can only apologize."
After Director Qu finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.
When Zhao Haibo heard this, his face turned slightly pale.
Flower Stem had chosen to go with Runfeng Company!
This… This was definitely the worst news for Qingkong Company.
Chen Meng, on the other hand, smiled casually and said, "Hehe, it seems that our Runfeng Company is quite lucky."
Then, he walked out.
Zhao Haibo was not willing to give up easily. He hurriedly chased after him and said, "Director Qu, Director Qu"
However, Director Qu ignored him.
Liu Gonglu said carefully, "M-Manager ZhaoWhat should we do now?"
"What should we do? What do you think we should do? I've already told you that today's meeting is very important. You must be prepared!" Zhao Haibo shouted, "But what did you do? You were actually chatting in the car!"
Liu Gonglu knew that Manager Zhao was in a fit of anger. Moreover, he was indeed in the wrong.
Therefore, he could only lower his head and did not dare to speak at all.
At this moment, Chen Meng walked out of the office with a stack of documents and a smile on his face.
"Manager Zhao, I've already received the contract. Now, I'll bring it back to the company to get it stamped and signed. Then, our Runfeng will be able to obtain a large amount of Flower Stem's essence." Chen Meng smiled smugly. "Manager Zhao, your business skills are not bad. What do you think? Would you like to consider coming to work at Runfeng?"
"We can't work with Flower Stem this year, but next year" Zhao Haibo grunted. "Things might change!"
"Next year? Haha! Manager Zhao, do you think you can get the contract by then? Don't deceive yourself!" Chen Meng sneered.
In fact, Zhao Haibo himself did not believe his words.
...
It could only be considered something he said out of anger.
However, Zhao Haibo's words suddenly reminded Liu Gonglu…
At this moment
Lin Fan's words suddenly echoed in Liu Gonglu's mind. 'If you struggle to reach a cooperation, just say that you know me.'
At the same time, Liu Gonglu thought about how he had learned from his classmates that Lin Fan was a well-hidden rich second generation.
Finally, Liu Gonglu mustered up his courage and said in a louder voice, "I know Lin Fan!"
When Zhao Haibo heard Liu Gonglu's words, he quickly thought of the young man who drove them here not long ago and the conversation between the two.
He immediately felt angry. 'In the past, I thought Liu Gonglu was smart and capable.
'Now, it seems that he's simply an idiot! Does he really think that just by mentioning Lin Fan, Flower Stem would choose to work with us? What a joke!
'What if the company thinks he's making a scene and chases us out?'
Thinking of this, Zhao Haibo was ready to scold Liu Gonglu.
However, before he could open his mouth, a series of brisk footsteps sounded in the distance, and a faint fragrance drifted over.
Then, a pleasant voice sounded from the side, "You know Lin Fan?"
Zhao Haibo, Liu Gonglu, and Chen Meng turned around to look.
In the next moment
The three of them were stunned.
The person who said this was not someone else It was Chu Yunyue, the president of Flower Stem!
242 Regional Agent; Treat Him to Dinner!
Even when Flower Stem was not as popular as it was now, Zhao Haibo, Chen Meng, Liu Gonglu, and the others had never come into close contact with Chu Yunyue like today.
Chu Yunyue was a famous beauty in the cosmetics industry.
Ever since Flower Stem became popular in Jiangbei, Jiang Province, and even the whole country, it was even harder for Zhao Haibo and the others to get in touch with Chu Yunyue.
They did not expect to get so close to her today.
Chu Yunyue looked at the three people who were in a daze. Finally, her gaze fell on Liu Gonglu and she asked again, "You know Lin Fan?"
At this moment, Liu Gonglu slowly came back to his senses and stammered, "Yes… Yes, he's my former classmate."
Chu Yunyue nodded and looked at Liu Gonglu with a gentler gaze. "Why did you come to our company today?"
Liu Gonglu hesitated and said, "I I'm Liu Gonglu from Qingkong Company. Our company wants to cooperate with Flower Stem…"
"Alright," Chu Yunyue opened her almond-shaped mouth and said.
This sudden word caused the atmosphere to turn heavy.
At the same time, Liu Gonglu was at a loss.
He stuttered, "C-CChairman Chu… You mean"
"Didn't you just say that Qingkong Company wants to cooperate with our Flower Stem? I agree! If I remember correctly, other than Jiangbei, your Qingkong Company also mainly does business in the southern part of the country, right? How about this? Our Flower Stem and Qingkong will sign a contract stating that Qingkong will be our sole agent in the Southern Xia region. What do you think?"
Sole agent?
In other words
In the entire Southern Xia region, only Qingkong Company could get their perfume, essence, and other products of flower Stem and sell them through channels.
If other companies also wanted to sell Flower Stem's products, they would have to purchase from Qingkong Company and become their second-tier distribution company?
Chu Yunyue saw that Liu Gonglu did not reply, so she frowned and said, "You don't agree?"
Before Liu Gonglu could reply, Zhao Haibo, who was beside him, quickly said, "Yes, our Qingkong Company is willing!"
They were willing!
Not only were they willing, but they were extremely willing!
This was simply like a pie falling from the sky. 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑜𝘳𝘨
In fact, Zhao Haibo came today only to get an ordinary sales channel.
As for being the sole agent of a certain area, he had never even thought about it.
Now, they had directly become the sole agent of the Southern Xia region!
The Southern Xia region was the headquarters of Qingkong Company. It had a vast territory and unlimited market potential!
At this moment, Chen Meng, who had been in a daze, said, "Uh… Uh… President Chu, Director Qu and I have already reached an agreement on the distribution channel between Runfeng Company and Flower Stem in the Southern Xia region."
As Chen Meng spoke, he took out the contract that he had just obtained not long ago.
"Have both parties already sealed and signed the contract?" Chu Yunyue frowned slightly.
"When I bring the contract back, we'll stamp and sign it," Chen Meng said.
"That means you haven't." Chu Yunyue said, "You don't have to sign the contract with us. In the future, if you want to sell through channels, you can just sign the contract with Qingkong Company."
Sign a contract with Qingkong Company?
Would they not become a secondary channel for Qingkong Company, then?
Chen Meng's eyes widened in disbelief. "This… Why?"
Chu Yunyue obviously did not intend to answer him. She turned to Director Qu, who had just walked out of the office, and said, "Director Qu, for the distribution contract agreement, you and Liu… Liu Gonglu should come to an agreement."
Regarding the contract…
Both Qingkong Company and Flower Stem had their own template.
Now, they only needed to discuss the specific details.
After a while, the sole agent contract for the Southern Xia region was given to Qingkong Company.
After Zhao Haibo walked out of Feiyang Building, his face was full of smiles.
At this moment, he found Liu Gonglu very pleasing to the eye.
Zhao Haibo gently patted Liu Gonglu's shoulder and said, "All along, I knew you were a smart and capable person! You really didn't disappoint me!"
His tone was so resolute that it was as if he had completely forgotten that he had called Liu Gonglu an idiot.
It was the first time Liu Gonglu was praised like this. He scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.
"Oh right, who exactly is Lin Fan?" Zhao Haibo asked again.
After saying that, he looked at Liu Gonglu with anticipation.
Just the mention of the name had given Qingkong Company such a good contract.
It was hard to imagine.
"Lin Fan is my former classmate. In the past, he was considered relatively ordinary in our class… As for the specifics, I don't know," Liu Gonglu said.
Zhao Haibo thought for a moment and said, "No matter what, Lin Fan has helped us a lot. Give him a call to thank him first. It would be best if you can treat him to a meal."
Liu Gonglu nodded repeatedly, took out his phone, and made a call.
…
After Lin Fan returned to the Santana, he did not continue to take orders. Instead, he focused on the mission system.
[Mission: Complete five special orders. Reward: Five golden packets. Progress: 3/5]
...
Seeing this
The corners of Lin Fan's lips curled up slightly as he smiled, "I didn't expect that I would be able to get closer to getting golden packets after sending off an old classmate. I just have to complete two more orders and I can get golden packets!"
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang.
"Lin Fan, are you free later? Can we have lunch together?"
As soon as the call was connected, Liu Gonglu's voice came from the other end.
"Okay!" Lin Fan replied.
After all, they were both former classmates, so having a meal together was nothing.
Moreover, Liu Gonglu had helped him just now.
"How about we meet at the Imperial Hotel?" Liu Gonglu said.
When Lin Fan heard this, a weird look appeared on his face.
He had just gone to the Imperial Hotel for dinner yesterday.
Today, he was going over again?
Was he going to treat the Imperial Hotel as a canteen?
However, thinking back to the delicacies in the Imperial Hotel, Lin Fan said, "Sure, let's meet at the Imperial Hotel."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan turned the car around in front of him. Then, he continued to drive forward leisurely.
When Lin Fan arrived at the Imperial Hotel, Liu Gonglu and Zhao Haibo were already waiting in the lobby.
Zhao Haibo said in a very enthusiastic tone, "Hello, Mr. Lin."
Lin Fan casually said, "Hello."
"Mr. Lin, this way please. We've already booked a table." As Zhao Haibo spoke, he brought Lin Fan to the main hall on the first floor. It was a table by the window.
This seating arrangement was obviously not comparable to yesterday's VIP Room 8.
However, Lin Fan did not care about where he ate.
Therefore, he sat down as well.
243 Thank You; It's Good for the Company!
Zhao Haibo had already ordered the dishes. After Lin Fan sat down, fragrant dishes were served.
Although the dishes in front of him were not as sumptuous as yesterday, theystill looked very exquisite. Lin Fan took a light whiff of the fragrance, and he started to drool.
"Liu Gonglu often mentioned you in front of me. Unfortunately, I never had the chance to meet you" Zhao Haibo said.
"In the morning, because I was in a hurry to go to Flower Stem for the discussion, I didn't have time to chat with you It has made me feel a little regretful.
!
"Now, we finally have a chance!"
Lin Fan glanced at Liu Gonglu, who had his head lowered. He knew that Zhao Haibo was saying some pretty words. Rather, he was trying to please him.
He had roughly guessed… the reason why the other party was like this.
However, Lin Fan did not point it out. He smiled and said, "Manager Zhao, you're too polite."
"This isn't being polite. I'm speaking from the bottom of my heart!" As Zhao Haibo spoke, he raised his wine glass and said, "Here, let me toast to Mr. Lin first!"
Then, he directly drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
Lin Fan and Liu Gonglu also drank a glass.
When Zhao Haibo saw this, he became even happier and said, "Speaking of the negotiation with Flower Stem, it's all thanks to you! Originally, it might have been difficult for our Qingkong Company to obtain the distribution rights this time
"But, Mr. Lin, you let our Qingkong Company become the sole agent for the entire Southern Xia region! Thank you, thank you so much!"
When Zhao Haibo mentioned this matter, his entire face became rosy.
With the popularity of Flower Stem's perfume and essence, he could already imagine the huge profits that Qingkong Company would earn after becoming the sole agent of the Southern Xia region. He could also imagine the scene of the company praising him and Liu Gonglu.
Thinking of this, Zhao Haibo raised his wine glass again and said, "Mr. Lin, let me toast you again!"
After saying that, he poured another glass of wine into his stomach.
Then, the three of them continued drinking, eating, and chatting. It was very relaxed.
At this moment, Liu Gonglu suddenly said, "Lin Fan, do you know the president of Flower Stem? Why did she make our company the sole agent of the Southern Xia region the moment I mentioned your name"
When Zhao Haibo heard this, his figure straightened slightly, and his ears could not help but perk up.
Obviously, he was also very curious about this question.
It was really This matter was too unbelievable.
"Yeah, I know her," Lin Fan said casually.
"And the reason why she directly made your company the sole agent of the Southern Xia region is probably… because I'm the biggest shareholder of Flower Stem."
As soon as he said this, Zhao Haibo and Liu Gonglu suddenly opened their mouths wide and were stunned on the spot.
Flower Stem The biggest shareholder?
If he was the major shareholder of the previous Flower Stem, it would be fine. However, being a shareholder of the current Flower Stem was too amazing!
The biggest shareholder?
How high was his net worth?
Lin Fan did not care about the two people who were shocked. He rubbed his round belly and said, "I'm full. I'll leave first."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out of the hall.
At this moment, Zhao Haibo and Liu Gonglu came back to their senses.
They looked at Lin Fan, who was already far away, and turned to walk toward the cashier.
"Hello, we're here to pay the bill," Zhao Haibo said. be𝚍nove𝚕.com
"Sir, you don't have to pay for your meal with our boss," said the waiter with a smile.
"Your boss?" Zhao Haibo frowned slightly. In the next moment, his pupils suddenly constricted, and he said, "You mean… Mr. Lin?"
"Yes," the waiter said.
Instantly, Zhao Haibo and Liu Gonglu were stunned once again.
The biggest shareholder of Flower Stem!
The owner of the Imperial Hotel!
This…
Any one of these identities was enough to make people look up to them.
At this moment, they were focused on a young man in his 20s!
Simply…
It was simply unimaginable!
However, what they did not know was that this was only a small portion of Lin Fan's assets.
If they knew all of his assets, what would their expressions be like?
After a while, Zhao Haibo asked with difficulty, "M-Mr. Lin is…"
"I… I don't know either…" Liu Gonglu was stunned.
…
In reality, Lin Fan did not leave the Imperial Hotel.
Instead, he went to the presidential suite on the top floor of the Imperial Hotel, which was specially prepared for him.
After eating and drinking his fill, Lin Fan lay down on the soft bed, feeling extremely satisfied and enjoying himself.
At this moment, his phone vibrated slightly.
...
12:00 PM!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 999 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 10,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received three yuan.]
Lin Fan casually tapped on the screen and received a total of 40,211 yuan.
Just as he was about to put down his phone, a brisk ringtone rang.
It was Chu Yunyue.
"Are you free for lunch?" Chu Yunyue asked.
"You're late. I just finished eating with my former high school classmate, Liu Gonglu," Lin Fan said.
Chu Yunyue said, "Oh, okay. I've been quite busy recently. I might not be able to accompany you."
Lin Fan said, "It's okay. But don't tire yourself out. Your health is the most important."
He paused before continuing, "By the way, is it okay for you to hand over all the sales channels in the Southern Xia region to my former classmate's company?"
Lin Fan knew that Chu Yunyue was a very ambitious person.
She had always wanted to create world-class perfumes and cosmetics.
Lin Fan did not want Chu Yunyue's career to be affected because of him.
After all, compared to a former classmate, his lover was definitely more important.
Chu Yunyue smiled. "Don't worry. I was planning to get a few regional agents. It's too complicated and messy to sell through scattered channels.
"The influence and scale of Qingkong Company in the Southern Xia region are very good. It's beneficial for us to let them be the sole agent
"You know what? Our Flower Stem's products have already caused quite a stir in the country. If we continue to develop… becoming a top brand in the world is definitely not an extravagant hope"
Chu Yunyue started talking non-stop at the mention of the company. She sounded very excited.
When Lin Fan heard this, he broke out into a smile.
The two of them chatted for a while before hanging up.
…
When Lin Fan picked up his phone again, it was already four in the afternoon.
He slept very comfortably.
Lin Fan did not continue to drive on DiDi. Instead, he lay on the bed and played with his phone.
When he was hungry, he picked up the phone beside his bed and asked the waiter to send up a sumptuous meal.
Then, he rested for a while.
In the blink of an eye The sky turned completely dark.
Only then did Lin Fan go downstairs. He drove the Santana and walked leisurely through the streets. He would occasionally receive a DiDi order.
244 Looks Like They Should Be Grateful to Me?
In the past, when Lin Fan was still an ordinary employee in the company, he would lie on the bed as soon as he got off work. He did not want to move at all.
Even though he had been in Jiangbei for a few years, he had never visited Jiangbei properly.
However, when he drove through DiDi today, he felt a different kind of beauty in Jiangbei.
The spacious and clean road, the neon shops, and the pedestrians who were laughing…
Lin Fan's face was filled with ease and satisfaction.
At this moment, it would be more accurate to say that he was on a road trip in Jiangbei rather than driving through DiDi to complete a mission.
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone vibrated slightly and another order appeared.
He turned the steering wheel and went straight to the location.
Two young people who looked like students got in.
"Jiangbei University of Arts and Science. Thank you," the boy said.
Then, he whispered, "There are still ten minutes before the dormitory door closes. I'm afraid we won't be able to make it in time"
The girl seemed to be a little flustered. "Then what should we do?"
"Did you bring your ID card?" 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮
The girl nodded lightly.
The boy said, "Then If it really doesn't work, we'll stay outside today."
The girl did not answer and just lowered her head silently.
At this moment, Lin Fan, who had been silent all this while, said, "Ten minutes? Don't worry, I'll definitely drop you off before then!"
He first looked at the map, then stepped on the accelerator and turned the steering wheel. He sped through the shortcuts.
In just seven minutes, Lin Fan arrived at the dorm entrance of Jiangbei University of Arts and Science.
Seeing this
The boy and girl got out of the car with blank expressions.
"There are still three minutes." Lin Fan shouted, "Quickly go back to the dormitory!"
After saying this, he stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
Lin Fan held the steering wheel with one hand and rubbed his nose with the other. He smiled and said, "They made it back to the dorm in time. Theyshould be very grateful to me now, right?"
Then, he casually looked at the mission system.
[Mission: Complete five special orders. Reward: Five golden packets. [Progress: 4/5]
Seeing this
Lin Fan's face revealed a look of surprise, "Another special order? It seems like they're really grateful to me!"
Lin Fan looked at the gradually empty street. He took a turn at the intersection in front of him. After a while, he arrived in front of a door.
After the doorbell rang, Hu Tian slowly opened the door.
This was the first time Lin Fan had seen her since the spring festival.
Compared to before the spring festival, Hu Tian looked fairer now. Her skin was fairer, and her figure was more voluptuous.
At this moment, Hu Tian seemed to have just taken a shower. Her hair was still a little wet, and she was wearing a V-neck thin shirt Lin Fan was stunned.
Hu Tian seemed to have noticed Lin Fan's gaze as well. She smiled and said, "Why are you standing there like a fool? Why aren't you coming in?"
Lin Fan finally reacted and walked in.
Creak!
As soon as the door closed, the two of them were attracted to each other like magnets.
o(*)
(*3)(*)
…
Absence made the heart grow fonder.
…
The next day.
When Lin Fan woke up, he could smell the fragrance from outside.
He slowly got up. After washing up, the dining table was already filled with noodles, dumplings, milk, eggs, and other rich breakfast items.
"You should be hungry, right?" Hu Tian smiled. "Hurry up and eat something."
Lin Fan said, "I am a little hungry."
After saying that, he picked up the noodles and stuffed them into his mouth.
"Yes! Delicious!" Lin Fan praised.
"If it's delicious, eat more," Hu Tian said happily. "By the way, did you take a few days off?"
"Yeah, I'm driving through the DiDi app to experience life," Lin Fan said.
"Huh?" Hu Tian was stunned.
One had to know
She knew Lin Fan quite well. He had several luxury cars, received tens of millions in bonuses, and was also the biggest shareholder of Flower Stem.
...
Did he still need to drive through the DiDi app?
Lin Fan smiled. "It's quite interesting to drive through DiDi. Teacher Tiantian, do you want to experience it?"
Seeing that Lin Fan was not joking, Hu Tian shook her head and said, "I've been studying the Hail Conjecture recently. I'm afraid I don't have the time."
Suddenly, a crisp voice rang out in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding! Read 'Foundation of Modern Algebra','Abstract Algebra', 'Advanced Algebra', 'Algebra Equations', and 'Algebra and Geometry'. Reward: The proof process of Hail Conjecture.]
When Lin Fan heard this, his face turned weird.
This was Did he trigger another mission?
The Hail Conjecture was an unsolved mathematical problem. He only needed to read five books to solve it?
Hu Tian seemed to have thought of something and said in an expectant tone, "Are you interested in the Hail Conjecture? Do you want to study it together?"
Lin Fan coughed lightly and said, "For the time being, I'm still more interested in driving through Di Di. In the future Maybe I'll be interested in the Hail Conjecture."
"I'll remember what you said," Hu Tian said with a smile.
Hu Tian still had classes in the afternoon.
Therefore, after Lin Fan and Hu Tian had lunch, Hu Tian went to Jiangbei University.
Meanwhile, Lin Fan continued to rest for a while before continuing his DiDi Journey.
Today, he was not as lucky as yesterday. After a few consecutive orders, he either sent customers home or sent customers to a hotel It was very dull.
Even at night, Lin Fan still could not receive any special orders.
"Could it be that today is not a suitable day to complete the mission?" Lin Fan muttered.
At this moment, his phone vibrated slightly, and another order appeared.
Lin Fan turned the steering wheel and quickly arrived at the location.
The customer was under a dimly lit tree.
A man with a buzz cut crossed his arms and quickly got into the car.
Not far away, an exquisite-looking female officer in plain clothes happened to see his appearance.
For some reason, the female police officer felt that the man with a buzz cut was somewhat familiar.
Relying on her professional sense, after the man with a buzz cut got into the car, the female officer quickly drove her own private car and quietly followed him.
"Ma Feng Forest Park." The man with a buzz cut said in a low voice after getting into the car.
Lin Fan did not mind. As usual, he stepped on the accelerator and sped forward.
Ma Feng Forest Park was located in the suburbs of Jiangbei
As they neared their destination, the surroundings were very desolate. There were even some dark lights.
After turning a corner, the man with a buzz cut suddenly grinned and shouted, "Stop the car!"
Lin Fan stepped on the brakes.
"Tsk!"
At this moment, the man suddenly took out a knife and shouted sternly, "Hand over all your money!"
Seeing this
Not only was Lin Fan not afraid, but he even smiled.
Did he encounter a robbery?
This… It should be considered a special order, right?
245 Saved; Mission Completed!
The buzz-cut man's appearance was already a little fierce. Under the dim light, he looked even more ferocious.
He held the knife in one hand and rummaged through the car with the other.
However, there was not even a piece of paper in the car, let alone money.
Could it be… Was he going to get nothing today?
Actually, this was normal.
!
After all, Lin Fan's Santana was a gift from Volkswagen Group.
Lin Fan did not store any money in it.
Then, the buzz-cut man's gaze fell on the car keys. His eyes moved slightly, and he raised the knife as he shouted, "Get out of the car!"
How could Lin Fan not see through his plans?
Lin Fan had been driving for quite some time and was feeling a little bored. As he wished, he opened the car door and got out.
When the man with the buzz cut walked out with the knife…
"Tsk!"
At this moment, a Volkswagen sped over from afar. The dazzling headlights made the buzz-cut man unable to open his eyes.
With lightning speed, a beautiful figure quickly ran out of the Volkswagen and grabbed the buzz-cut man, pressing him to the ground.
Then, the beautiful figure skillfully took out the handcuffs on her waist and cuffed the buzz-cut man's hands.
Her movements were like flowing water, smooth and agile.
This scene…
Lin Fan saw everything.
The woman was tall, plump, and strong. Her facial features were exquisite and delicate. Her long black hair was tied up high and fluttered in the wind. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢
She was not as gentle as an ordinary woman. On the contrary, she had a heroic sense of beauty.
The high beam lights beside her were all focused on her… It caused her entire body to faintly emit a dazzling light.
At this moment…
Lin Fan had a strange feeling in his heart. It was as if… she was not a mortal woman but a female war god who descended from the sky!
Lin Fan could not help but use his Eyes of Truth to observe this beautiful woman.
[Appearance: 96]
[Favorability: 35]
At this moment, the beauty turned her body slowly and looked at Lin Fan with a scrutinizing gaze. She asked, "I'm from Jiangbei City. Who are you? Why did you come here with him? And why would he point a knife at you?"
"I received an order through DiDi to send him here," Lin Fan said honestly. "Then, I was robbed by him."
The beautiful office nodded noncommittally and said, "I understand. But now, I'll have to trouble you to come with me to the investigation team to give a statement. Please cooperate."
Obviously, she had made this arrangement for safety reasons.
The police would never believe a one-sided story. They had to go through a strict review to determine the truth.
Lin Fan understood their process and nodded. "Alright."
After a while, a police vehicle drove over from afar, and the man with a buzz cut was brought inside.
Lin Fan got into the beautiful officer's car while his Santana was driven away by another man.
After all, Lin Fan was a victim, and it was not suitable to treat him like a criminal.
If Lin Fan was a bad person, the beautiful officer believed that she could subdue him.
Of course, this was just the confidence of the beautiful officer.
Lin Fan sat in her car and looked around.
The interior of the car was spotless, very clean and tidy.
This… She was indeed a beautiful woman with a serious personality.
When Lin Fan's gaze landed on the car's armrest, he could not help but praise internally, 'She's indeed a beautiful woman with a score of 96. Her ID photo is so beautiful. Wang Ru? Her name is not bad either.'
At this time, Wang Ru said, "You didn't seem scared at all?"
Lin Fan said, "After all, he's just a robber with a knife."
Wang Ru looked at Lin Fan and did not say anything.
With the sound of brakes, Lin Fan, Wang Ru, the buzz-cut man, and the others walked toward the investigation team.
The buzz-cut man was panicking while Lin Fan was very relaxed.
At this moment, the burly captain of the investigation team, Deng Jihu, happened to walk out with his head held high.
Wang Ru and the other detectives became serious and shouted, "Greetings, Captain!"
Deng Jihu nodded and prepared to continue walking forward.
In the next moment…
His body suddenly froze, and his pupils constricted.
That was because he saw Lin Fan.
"Mr. Lin!" Deng Jihu said excitedly.
"Leader Deng," Lin Fan said.
"This… What happened?" Deng Jihu asked.
"It's nothing serious. I was bored and went out to play on DiDi. Then, I was robbed by this guy with a buzz cut…" Lin Fan replied.
...
His tone was very calm as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
However, in Deng Jihu's ears, it sounded like thunder.
Who was Lin Fan?
Old Master Qin Weiming was very fond of him!
Even the leaders of Jiang Province and Jiangbei City did not dare to show him any disrespect!
He was actually robbed with a knife?
How vile was this?
"Mr. Lin, are you hurt?" Deng Jihu asked in fear.
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "No. Wang Ru happened to pass by. She subdued the buzz-cut man."
When Deng Jihu heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that you're fine. It's good that you're fine."
Then, he said to Wang Ru, "Good job!"
In the end, he stared at the buzz-cut man and shouted, "Bring him in and interrogate him strictly. I want him to confess all the bad things he has done in his life!"
"Yes, Sir!" The few officers standing at the side became solemn and shouted in unison.
The buzz-cut man trembled in fear and almost fell to the ground.
Lin Fan asked, "Do I still have to go in and cooperate with the investigation?"
"There's no need, there's no need… It's already so late. Mr. Lin, just go home and have a good rest," Deng Jihu hurriedly said.
Lin Fan nodded his head and did not reject. He went back.
When he arrived at the Santana, a crisp notification sounded in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding! You've completed the mission: Complete five special orders. You'll receive five golden packets. Progress 5/5.]
When Lin Fan heard this, his eyes lit up immediately. He could not help but smile.
The mission was finally completed!
Five golden packets… What would he get?
Lin Fan's heart was filled with a rare sense of excitement.
Therefore, he did not stop at the entrance of the police station. He stepped on the accelerator and sped forward.
Deng Jihu only retracted his gaze after Lin Fan's Santana had completely disappeared from sight.
He did not go home. With a cold expression, he strode into the station.
Today, he had to teach the person who robbed Lin Fan a lesson!
246 Open the Golden Packets!
Lin Fan had no idea what Deng Jihu was thinking.
At this moment, he was heading toward the Coiling Dragon Villa at his fastest speed.
When the security guards at the entrance saw Lin Fan, they stood straight like soldiers and greeted him respectfully, "Hello, Mr. Lin!"
Lin Fan nodded his head casually and walked into the villa.
Then, he focused all his attention on the system.
Lin Fan looked at the dazzling golden packets in the system and said excitedly, "Let me see what I can get from these five golden packets!
"Open!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received a double shares coupon. You can double your shares. More shares, more assets, and more charming charm.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received ten Rolls-Royce Phantoms.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained one bag of Spirit Tea Seeds.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five million yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five million yuan.]
Lin Fan ignored the two 5,000,000 yuan.
Ten Rolls-Royce Phantoms.
One had to know
Each Rolls-Royce Phantom cost more than ten million yuan, so ten of them would cost 100 million yuan!
Double shares coupon.
Lin Fan now owned 51% of the shares of the Yinshan Group, Qingkun Group, Xiao Wu Wholesale City, and other companies. The market value of these companies was more than ten billion.
Once he used the double shares coupon on one of the companies, Lin Fan would have 100% control over the company.
His assets would increase by tens, hundreds, or even tens of billions!
However, Lin Fan did not plan to use it on these companies because he still owned 5% of LV, Gucci, Volkswagen Group, Little Tanuki, Penguin, and other super companies.
The market value of these companies was close to a trillion or more.
Especially Little Tanuki and Penguin, which were super giants with a market value of five trillion!
If he used the double shares coupon on one of these companies, then Lin Fan would have 10% of the company's shares and his assets would instantly increase by hundreds of billions!
This was definitely a terrifying number.
Lin Fan first ruled out LV, Gucci, and the Volkswagen Group.
Firstly, it was because their market value was relatively low, and it was not worth it to use the double shares coupon.
Secondly, these three companies were related to clothes, bags, and cars Lin Fan did not lack these things at all, and he was not too interested in them either.
Thirdly, Lin Fan knew that Little Tanuki and Penguin belonged to a giant company in the country.
However, a large portion of their shares were in the hands of foreigners
Lin Fan had a vision. If he could get a few more double shares coupons…
Soon, these two giant companies would belong to him and return to the country.
Thinking of this
After pondering for a moment, Lin Fan had finally made a decision.
[Ding! Do you want to use the double shares coupon on Penguin Corporation?]
"Yes!]
Lin Fan's net worth had increased by another 250 billion!
Seeing this
Lin Fan's lips curled up.
Then, he turned his attention to the Spiritual Tea Seeds.
[Spirit Tea Seed: It can quickly grow fresh and natural tea leaves. The tea has the effects of expelling toxins from the body, rejuvenating the body, and prolonging life.]
Seeing this
Lin Fan's eyes lit up immediately.
Expel the toxins in the body, rejuvenate the spirit, and prolong life The name Spirit Tea was absolutely appropriate!
When Lin Fan raised his head, a bag of seeds had already appeared in front of him.
Obviously This was the bag of Spirit Tea Seeds.
Outside the window in the distance, a row of Rolls-Royce Phantoms appeared.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received ten million yuan.]
…
Tonight, Lin Fan slept very comfortably.
The next day, after the sun rose, a rumbling sound came from outside.
A large group of construction workers arrived at the entrance of the Coiling Dragon villa complex.
...
Lin Fan heard the voice and opened his eyes slowly.
He first casually glanced at his phone. As usual, a text message appeared on the screen.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,650,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
When he opened the door, two security guards happened to walk over.
"Mr. Lin, there's a group of construction workers outside. They said that you asked them to come over?" the security guard said.
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Yes, let them in."
"Alright." The security guards did not dare to ask any more questions. They turned around and let more than a dozen construction workers in.
Among them
The person walking in front was the manager of Lin Fan's Flying Dragon Security Company, Wang Shengli.
"Hello, Mr. Lin." Wang Shengli said respectfully, "These people are all skilled construction workers. They can build walls, stick ceramic tiles, and make furniture. There's nothing they don't know how to do"
"Can they demolish houses?" Lin Fan asked.
"Yes!" Wang Shengli said without hesitation.
"Alright then. You guys can tear down the villa at the back." Lin Fan pointed into the distance.
Wang Shengli, the construction workers, and the security guards standing not far away were all stunned.
Demolish the villa?
Tearing down a palace-like villa?
Seeing that Wang Shengli and the workers did not reply, Lin Fan frowned and asked, "What's wrong? You don't know how to demolish it?"
Wang Shengli was the first to react and said, "Of course not. Brothers, let's go!"
"Remember to take away all the bricks, cement, marble, furniture, and other things. Leave only an empty space," Lin Fan said.
"Mr. Lin, don't worry. I'll definitely do a clean job!" Wang Shengli patted his chest.
The security guards felt their throats go dry as they watched the large group of workers leave.
Finally, a security guard could not help but ask, "M-Mr. Lin, you're demolishing that villa because…"
"Oh, I want to start a tea plantation there. It should be quite good to plant tea by the lake." Lin Fan smiled.
When the security guards heard this, they were instantly stunned.
One had to know
This was the Coiling Dragon Villa by Tianhu Lake. Each villa was worth at least 200 to 300 million!
Demolishing a villa worth at least 200 to 300 million yuan to… plant tea?
This…
This…
Was this the world of the rich?
Naturally, Lin Fan did not pay attention to the stunned security guard. He got into one of the Rolls-Royce Phantoms that he had just obtained last night. He stepped on the accelerator and sped into the distance.
The Rolls-Royce Phantom was very wide and large, looking very heavy.
However, it had a 6.7L V12 engine that could produce 571 horsepower, so its acceleration and reaction speed were not slow at all.
Lin Fan went to a two-star Michelin Western restaurant a few kilometers away and ordered truffle egg tarts, shrimp pancakes, black pudding, and skimmed milk.
He spent a total of 2,780 yuan and ate a simple breakfast before continuing to drive the Rolls-Royce Phantom to Jiangbei University, which he had not been to for a few days.
Chapter 247: No Classes in the Morning; Mission Completed Again!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation It was a weekday morning in Jiangbei, and the road was very congested.
However, Lin Fan managed to reach Jiangbei University in just half an hour. Wherever he passed, the surrounding cars tried their best to keep a distance from him, afraid that they would accidentally bump into him.
After Lin Fan parked the Rolls-Royce Phantom, he muttered to himself, "It feels more comfortable to sit in the back row… It's indeed more suitable to have a driver drive this car."
Then, Lin Fan strolled toward the classroom.
However, he found that the classroom was empty.
Lin Fan took out his phone and sent a message to the dorm group.
Lin Fan typed: [Why is there no one in the classroom?]
Song Yi: [Brother Fan, you're here? There are no classes this morning.]
Lin Fan was speechless.
Seeing this, Lin Fan's face was filled with helplessness.
It was rare for him to come to school after the spring festival, but there were no classes?
Lin Fan could only turn around and leave the classroom. When he looked up, he happened to see the library not far away. After hesitating for a moment, he strode over.
He remembered that he still had a mission to complete.
Anyway… There was nothing much to do now, so he would complete it.
The library of Jiangbei University was always packed with people.
Looking around, other than the rows of bookshelves, there were also the surging figures of the students.
Lin Fan walked past the engineering bookshelf, the chemistry bookshelf, and the electricity bookshelf… He went straight to the mathematics bookshelf.
Modern Algebra Foundation, Abstract Algebra, Advanced Algebra, Algebra Equations, Algebra and Geometry…
About five minutes later, Lin Fan found all the books he needed to read for the mission.
Then, he hugged five thick books and looked at the seat in the distance, but all he could see was a black mass of heads.
Almost all the seats were taken.
There were a few empty seats, but they were also filled with books and information like a bright flag declaring the territory.
Lin Fan muttered in his heart, 'Seems like… I can only stand and read.' At this moment, an extremely magnetic voice suddenly sounded from the side. "Uhh… Do you need a seat?"
When Lin Fan heard that, he turned around slowly.
A 167cm tall girl with long black hair and a pair of black-rimmed glasses was standing behind Lin Fan with a book on number theory.
For some reason, Lin Fan felt that she looked familiar. He could not help but use his Eyes of Truth to observe her.
[Appearance: 94]
[Favorability: 65]
When Lin Fan first laid eyes on her, he guessed that her looks were above 90 points.
Therefore, he was not surprised that she scored 94 points.
His favorability had reached 65, which was far above the passing line.
Obviously, this woman had a good impression of him.
Could it be… Did he really know her?
Lin Fan nodded his head slightly with a hint of doubt in his heart, "I need a seat."
"I… There's an available seat beside me," the girl said.
After saying that, she took the lead and walked forward.
After a while, the two of them came to an empty space with two stacks of documents.
Lin Fan did not stand on ceremony and sat down. He opened Modern Algebra Foundation and started flipping through it.
[Skill: Scanning]
One page, two pages, three pages, four pages…
Immediately, the sound of books being flipped could be heard.
In about two minutes, he was done reading the hundred-page Modern Algebra Foundation.
Then, there was Abstract Algebra, Advanced Algebra, Algebra Equations, as well as Algebra and Geometry.
He finished reading all five thick and obscure books in less than ten minutes. At the same time, a crisp notification rang out in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding! You've completed the mission-Read Modern Algebra Foundation, Abstract Algebra, Advanced Algebra, Algebra Equations, Algebra and Geometry. You've obtained the proof process of the Hail Conjecture.]
All of a sudden, many complicated calculations and formulas flooded through Lin Fan's mind like a tidal wave.
After a long while, his face revealed a hint of enlightenment.
He muttered in his heart, 'So this is how the Hail Conjecture is proven.' When Lin Fan turned his head, he realized that the girl with black-rimmed glasses was thinking about a math question with her head lowered.
Seeing this…
Lin Fan finally remembered why he felt that she was familiar and why she had a good impression of him.
That was because…
Back then, Lin Fan had gone to the library to read ten books on earthquakes and physics in order to obtain the earthquake prediction device and its manufacturing principles.
At that time, this woman… He happened to be sitting beside her.
Before he left, Lin Fan was in a good mood.
Therefore, he even helped her answer a question.
Thinking back to what had happened, Lin Fan rubbed his nose and muttered in his heart, 'I helped her solve the problem, and she gave me a seat. Is this karma for good people?' Then, Lin Fan's gaze landed on the question again.
Almost instantly, he knew how to answer the question.
However, Lin Fan did not write down the answer directly. Instead, he reminded her, "If you want to answer this question, you can first think about the basic structure of number theory."
After all, it was better to teach people to fish than to give them fish.
The woman slowly raised her head and asked in confusion, "Basic structure?"
Lin Fan picked up a pen and paper and quickly wrote down a formula.
When the girl saw this, her beautiful eyes immediately lit up. She said in realization, "Thank you, I understand now."
Lin Fan smiled and nodded. You should know my name, right?"
It was no wonder he thought so.
That was because Lin Fan had met her twice. Each time… she was solving math questions.
Lin Fan solved Zhou's Conjecture and the Twin Prime Number Conjecture. He solved two mathematical problems.
He believed that if one was a mathematics major, one would be able to recognize him.
This was not Lin Fan boasting; it was the truth.
However…
The woman shook her head and said, "I don't…"
This sentence almost made Lin Fan choke.
"I'm a physics major," the woman said. "My name is Lu Ling."
Only then did Lin Fan recover. Physics major…No wonder.
He cleared his throat and said, "My name is Lin Fan."
After saying each other's names, the two of them seemed to be more familiar with each other.
"I see that you often flip through a lot of books. Are you looking for something?" Lu Lin asked. 𝚋ed𝚗𝚘𝚟e𝚕.𝚗et
"I guess so," Lin Fan said.
What could he say?
That he was just reading normally?
Lu Lin would probably ask again, "Then how do you read so fast?"
Would Lin Fan then say that not only did he finish reading everything but he could even memorize everything without missing a single word?
It would be a little troublesome to explain.
Lin Fan hated trouble, so he did not bother explaining..
248 No One Believes the Truth; Head to the Office!
Lin Fan chatted with Lu Lin for a while before strolling back to the dormitory.
"Brother Lin Fan, you're finally here! I missed you so much!" Song Yi was the first to shout excitedly.
After saying that, he opened his arms and looked like he wanted to hug Lin Fan.
Lin Fan waved his hands. "Forget about hugging. I only hug beautiful women."
Zheng Jinbao, who was sitting in front of the computer, heard the word 'beautiful', and his eyes lit up. He chuckled and said, "Brother Lin Fan, which pretty girl did you go out with these past few days?"
Lin Fan laughed bitterly and said, "I went to earn money from DiDi. I have no choice. Life isn't easy!"
Zheng Jinbao directly filtered out the words 'life is not easy.'
He widened his eyes and asked excitedly, "F*ck, awesome!" Brother Lin Fan, tell me. How many pretty girls did you meet?"
Obviously, he felt that Lin Fan had driven his supercar.
How could ordinary beauties resist the temptation of a supercar?
Lin Fan saw through Zheng Jinbao's thoughts at a glance and said, "What are you thinking about? I didn't use a supercar."
"What?" Zheng Jinbao was confused.
At this moment, the sound of brisk footsteps could be heard from outside.
Ma Zhong carried a stack of books and slowly walked in.
"Brother Lin Fan, you're back!" Ma Zhong said happily.
Lin Fan nodded. "Yeah."
Then, Ma Zhong took out his phone and said, "Oh right, when I passed by the parking lot just now, I saw a Rolls-Royce parked in our school!"
Almost all men loved cars.
The Rolls-Royce was the king of cars.
When Song Yi and Zheng Jinbao heard this, they leaned their heads over.
"It's a Rolls-Royce Phantom!" Song Yi shouted.
Lin Fan smiled casually, "If you want to see, you can go over and take a look."
As he spoke, he placed the Rolls-Royce Phantom keys in his pocket on the table.
Silence.
He was most afraid of a sudden silence.
After a while, Song Yi stuttered, "B-Brother Lin Fan, is the Rolls-Royce Phantom yours too?"
"Yes, it is," Lin Fan said.
Lin Fan already owned several supercars, yet he had a Rolls-Royce Phantom now?
Zheng Jinbao, Song Yi, and Ma Zhong shouted in unison, "Brother Lin Fan, you're awesome!"
At this moment, Zheng Jinbao seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Brother Lin Fan, don't tell me you drove the Phantom when you were driving through DiDi?"
As he spoke, he could not help but think of the scene when the passengers sat in the Rolls-Royce Phantom and were dumbfounded.
"I drove the Santana… However, I earned this Rolls-Royce Phantom by driving through DiDi," Lin Fan said.
"Brother Lin Fan, do you think I'm stupid?" Zheng Jinbao said.
Was that not so?
A Rolls-Royce Phantom cost ten million.
DiDi?
Even if he drove to his death, he would definitely not be able to earn that kind of money.
Lin Fan smiled and shook his head.
In fact…
Lin Fan did not just earn a Rolls-Royce Phantom from DiDi. He had earned ten cars from it!
In addition, there was ten million in cash and 5% of Penguin Group's shares!
Sometimes, the truth was hard to believe.
When a group of young people were together, time seemed to slip away like sand in their palms.
Soon, the bell rang.
Lin Fan, Zheng Jinbao, Ma Zhong, Song Yi, and the others had already arrived at the classroom.
They were not the only ones. There were many others who had similar actions.
There was no empty seat in the classroom.
It was because this was Teacher Tiantian's class.
Following the sound of crisp footsteps, Teacher Tiantian, who was wearing a pure white short skirt and a light gray windbreaker, walked to the podium.
Instantly, the entire classroom fell silent.
Teacher Tiantian first looked at the students in the classroom. When she saw Lin Fan, her pretty face could not help but reveal a faint smile.
This smile…
Like the rising sun in the winter, everyone's hearts almost melted.
Then, Teacher Tiantian began today's class.
Usually, when a teacher gave a lecture, most of the students would fall asleep and wish that the class would end in a second.
However, Teacher Tiantian's class was the complete opposite.
After the bell rang, many students began to complain.
"Why is class over so soon?"
"Yeah!"
However, no matter how much they complained…
There would be no change in the time of the end of class.
When Teacher Tiantian was about to leave the classroom, she suddenly stopped and said, "Lin Fan, come to my office after school."
After saying that, she continued to walk out.
Instantly, all the students in the classroom looked at Lin Fan with envy.
Teacher Tiantian's invitation!
Moreover, this was not the first time!
Song Yi, Ma Zhong, and Zheng Jinbao shouted in unison, "Brother Fan, I'll kneel before you!"
After saying that, they really did bend their knees slightly as if they were about to kneel.
Lin Fan looked at their funny faces and wanted to laugh.
…
Lin Fan had been to Teacher Tiantian's office several times and was now very familiar with it.
At this moment, Teacher Tiantian was the only one in the office.
The quiet office and Teacher Tiantian, who was writing at her desk, formed a beautiful picture.
When Teacher Tiantian heard the footsteps, she slowly raised her head. When she saw that it was Lin Fan, she could not help but smile. "Do you want something to drink?"
"I'm a little thirsty," Lin Fan said.
After saying that, he did not treat himself as an outsider. He directly picked up the cup that Teacher Tiantian had just drunk from and started drinking it.
After all, with their relationship, there was no need for formalities.
After Lin Fan drank the water, he looked at the calculations on Teacher Tiantian's desk and said, "Are you still studying the Hail Conjecture? Hmm? There seems to be a problem here."
"Where?" Teacher Tiantian asked.
Lin Fan pointed at a formula. Then, he picked up a pen and paper and started writing.
2^m-3^(n+1)1mn,2^m3^(m+)…
"Forget it. I'll just write down the entire process," Lin Fan said.
Teacher Tiantian, who was sitting next to her, was stunned.
Write down the entire process?
Lin Fan picked up a new stack of draft paper.
X1=3,X2=(3×1+1)2^2=1…
Lin Fan's writing speed was very fast. He did not think at all. The tip of the pen collided with the draft paper, making light and hurried sounds.
At first, Teacher Tiantian was still looking down at Lin Fan's handwriting seriously.
However, as time passed…
Gradually, Teacher Tiantian could not keep up even if she just watched.
Then, Teacher Tiantian could not help but shift her gaze from the draft book to Lin Fan.
She looked at Lin Fan's quick writing of the formula and his focused expression…
At this moment…
In Teacher Tiantian's eyes, Lin Fan did not seem to be writing down formulas. Instead, he was sitting on a gorgeous stage, gathering dazzling stage lights on himself while playing a beautiful piece of music.
249 Conjecture Answered; Invitation!
One by one, Lin Fan flipped through the draft papers filled with complicated equations and calculations.
The speed at which Lin Fan wrote was getting faster and faster.
In Teacher Tiantian's eyes, it was so charming and pleasant.
It was as if this piano piece was full of ups and downs with endless climaxes.
Teacher Tiantian's breathing even began to become a little hurried, and her beautiful cheeks were flushed.
After writing on nearly 20 pages of draft paper, Lin Fan's fingers suddenly stopped.
Then, he switched to the ballpoint pen in Teacher Tiantian's hand and wrote down the last line of calculations: Xs1 +1=(3Xs+1)/2 ^n, so 3n +1 is true!
Lin Fan smiled, "Hail Conjecture, solved."
As soon as he finished speaking, Teacher Tiantian, who was sitting beside him, leaned her head over.
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
? (ˉ﹃ˉ?)
…
Teacher Tiantian was using her own way to express the excitement in her heart.
When love was deep, it was difficult to control it.
After more than an hour, the two of them slowly separated.
Teacher Tiantian tidied up her clothes. 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Then, she turned her gaze back to the draft book filled with calculations and exclaimed, "Lin Fan, you actually proved the Hail Conjecture!"
After saying that, Teacher Tiantian could not help but look at Lin Fan with an extremely passionate gaze.
"Lin Fan, when did you start researching the Hail Conjecture?"
"The last time we met," Lin Fan said.
"Yesterday… Yesterday?" Teacher Tiantian said.
"Yeah." Lin Fan nodded.
Yesterday morning, Lin Fan said that he was more interested in driving through DiDi.
In the future, he might be interested in the Hail Conjecture.
Then…
After a day, he directly proved the Hail Conjecture?
One had to know…
The Hail Conjecture was a super difficult problem that had stumped the entire world for nearly a hundred years!
In the end, Lin Fan only used one day to solve it?
What kind of genius was he?
At this moment, in Teacher Tiantian's eyes, Lin Fan seemed to be emitting an incomparably dazzling light. He was so mesmerizing.
"Lin Fan," Teacher Tiantian called out softly.
"What's wrong?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
Teacher Tiantian did not say anything. She just moved her head closer.
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
? (ˉ﹃ˉ?)
…
This time, the two of them slowly separated when a patrolling security guard appeared outside the corridor.
However, their separation was only temporary.
Lin Fan went to Teacher Tiantian's house.
…
The next day.
Since it was the weekend, neither of them had to go to school.
Lin Fan and Hu Tian sat together and ate their breakfast leisurely.
"Lin Fan, which magazine do you want to publish the solution to Hail Conjecture on?" Hu Tian asked.
Lin Fan took a mouthful of noodles and said, "Publish it? It's too troublesome. I only proved it out of interest. If you want to publish it, just publish it."
When Hu Tian heard this, she felt both helpless and touched.
If it was someone else who solved such a world-class problem, they would definitely be ecstatic.
After that, they would analyze it again and again to see which magazine they should submit to.
However, Lin Fan was so calm. He even handed over the solution to her and asked her to submit it.
If she had any ill intentions, this huge achievement would completely belong to her.
"Alright, I'll submit it to Annual Mathematics for you," Hu Tian said.
Lin Fan nodded his head nonchalantly and finished the last mouthful of broth. He praised, "Your food is getting more and more delicious!"
"If you like it, eat more," Hu Tian said happily.
After chatting for a while, Lin Fan drove the Rolls-Royce Phantom toward the Coiling Dragon Villa.
In the past, the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex was located closest to the lake. It was a villa that occupied a huge area.
Now, it was empty.
Seeing this…
Lin Fan smiled and said in satisfaction, "Wang Shengli is quite efficient. He took away all the bricks and stones. This is very suitable for planting tea leaves."
After saying that, he took the hoe and shovel that he had bought earlier and scattered the Spiritual Tea Seeds that he had obtained from the golden packet. He also watered them with the appropriate amount of water.
Just like that, Lin Fan continued to sow and water the seeds in the Coiling Dragon Villa. Two days passed very leisurely and comfortably.
After ordinary tea leaves were planted, even if they were carefully taken care of, given the best fertilizer, and had sufficient water…
There would definitely not be any changes in two days.
However, the Spiritual Tea Seeds had sprouted.
At this moment, standing in the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex and looking at the sky lake, Lin Fan could see a green scene full of vitality.
At this moment, the phone in Lin Fan's pocket rang.
He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was a call from President Ma of Penguin.
Lin Fan did not hesitate and answered the call.
"Mr. Lin, how was your weekend?" As soon as he picked up the phone, President Ma's gentle voice came from the other end.
Lin Fan said, "I planted tea seeds and watered them. It was relaxing."
"I didn't expect you to be someone who likes the rural life…" President Ma was a little surprised.
Lin Fan smiled, "What kind of person did you think I was?"
President Ma thought for a moment and said, "Generally speaking, young people like you are interested in lively parties and exciting sports. Or a challenging career…"
Lin Fan smiled. "Compared to these, I would rather lie down."
After the two of them exchanged pleasantries, President Ma finally revealed the purpose of the call.
"By the way, Mr. Lin, Penguin Group has opened a new company in Jiangbei City. I wonder if you're free to go with me tomorrow?"
Lin Fan remembered that he was the second largest shareholder of Penguin Group, but he had never been to the headquarters of Penguin Group.
Of course, Lin Fan did not want to go to Yang City to see Penguin Group's headquarters.
If he did not go to the headquarters, then the branch in Jiangbei… Taking a look around seemed possible.
Lin Fan replied, "Okay, I'll go with you tomorrow."
"That's great!" President Ma said happily. "To be honest, I've been missing the food in Jiangbei ever since I left. Mr. Lin, you must bring me out to eat again tomorrow!"
Lin Fan smiled. "Of course!"
The two of them chatted for a while before hanging up.
Then, Lin Fan sent a request for leave to Sun Yaodong.
Regarding this…
Sun Yaodong did not hesitate at all, nor did he ask for any reason. He directly chose to approve it.
250 Arriving at Penguin's Branch; Hello, Mr. Lin!
The next morning.
A breeze blew the branches gently.
A ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains and onto the balcony.
Lin Fan finally opened his eyes.
He first casually glanced at his phone and saw a text message appear on the screen.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,670,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Jiuzhou Bar.]
Lin Fan muttered, "A bar? What's the use of giving it to me?
"Forget it. It's better than ten million yuan."
Then, Lin Fan slowly got up.
After washing up, he picked up the bread that had already been baked automatically and put it into his mouth. He then chewed on Wagyu beef, Australian lobster, crab, eggs, lettuce, and other food.
Although the ingredients were relatively simple, the taste was not bad.
Lin Fan was satisfied with the food.
After breakfast, Lin Fan went to the lake and watered all the sprouts. Then, he drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class toward the Jiangbei branch of Penguin Group.
Compared to the short sports car and the Rolls-Royce Phantom driven by a driver… Lin Fan liked the sturdy and tall SUV Mercedes-Benz G-Class even more.
As it was Monday, there were many cars on the road, and many sections were congested… Lin Fan was not in a hurry and continued to move forward at a constant speed.
He arrived at his destination at around 10:30 in the morning.
Lin Fan parked the car and walked in.
At this moment, a man in a checkered shirt slowly walked out of the beverage room beside the door with a cup of coffee.
When he saw Lin Fan, he exclaimed, "Lin Fan?"
That was right!
This man was Lin Fan's high school classmate, Shen Liang.
After graduation, this was the third time Lin Fan had seen him.
The first time was at a class reunion in Jiangbei.
At that time, Shen Liang was considered one of the friendliest people to Lin Fan.
After that, when their homeroom teacher was hospitalized, Shen Liang was one of the few people who specially rushed back to Qing City.
In addition, Lin Fan and Shen Liang had a good relationship in high school.
Overall, Lin Fan had a good impression of Shen Liang.
"Lin Fan, why did you come to our company?" Shen Liang asked.
The last time they met, Shen Liang had also mentioned that he was working in IT.
Lin Fan did not expect him to be working in IT at Penguin.
Did that not mean that Shen Liang was his employee?
"Isn't this Penguin Group?" Lin Fan asked. "I'm here for a stroll."
Regarding this…
Shen Liang was not too surprised.
This was because Penguin Group was a giant company in Hua Nation that had established its own online empire.
In the past, many people could not help but run in to take a look when they passed by.
"Since you're already in our company, I'll be your guide!" Shen Liang said with a smile.
"Alright!" Lin Fan agreed immediately.
Even though he had already agreed to meet with President Ma…
He had not seen President Ma just yet.
He would just take a stroll first… It was nothing.
"By the way, do you want a cup of coffee?" Shen Liang asked again. "I think it tastes similar to Starbucks."
After he finished speaking, he did not wait for Lin Fan's reply and walked into the beverage room.
As soon as they walked into the beverage room, they were greeted by the rich aroma of coffee.
Shen Liang skillfully poured a cup of coffee from the coffee machine and handed it to Lin Fan.
Then, he pointed at the various snacks piled up on the wall cabinet in the distance and said, "Is there anything you want to eat? You can take whatever you want. It's all free."
"Then give me a packet of QQ candy," said Lin Fan.
"I didn't expect you to like this!" Shen Liang said with a smile.
Then, Shen Liang brought Lin Fan inside and said, "This is the design department. Many of the news photos come from here.
"This is the news department. There are many editors here.
"This is the gaming department… The people in this department have the highest salary."
When Shen Liang said this, his face revealed a thick look of envy.
"That's our marketing department."
…
Shen Liang introduced as he walked. Lin Fan nodded his head.
The two of them were chatting and laughing. When they reached the corner, Shen Liang accidentally bumped into someone.
When he raised his head, his entire body seemed to have been frozen.
The person he hit… He was wearing a black suit and had short hair. He was the IT director of the Jiangbei branch of Penguin Group!
Beside the IT director stood the general manager, deputy chief supervisor, and many other top figures… The chairman of Penguin Group, Mr. Ma, was surrounded by them!
These people… They were actually together!
He had actually bumped into them?
Moreover… it was during working hours!
Shen Liang only felt his head buzzing, and his entire face began to turn slightly pale.
Penguin Group was the largest company in Hua Nation's internet industry. At the same time, it was also one of the few companies with the best treatment…
Countless people fought to enter Penguin.
Back then, Shen Liang also spent a lot of effort to obtain this opportunity.
Now… he was afraid there would not be anything left.
At this moment, President Ma, who was surrounded by people, smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, when did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me? I could've picked you up at the door!"
As he spoke, President Ma took the initiative to extend his right hand toward Lin Fan.
Lin Fan reached out his hand and shook it gently.
This scene not only stunned Shen Liang but also the general manager, director, and department head.
The general manager, director, and the others had learned from President Ma not long ago that a very important guest would be coming over later.
In their opinion, the guest who was called a very important guest by President Xiao Ma must be at least 30 to 40 years old.
Some people even started to guess if it was President Li.
In the end, it turned out to be a young man who looked to be in his 20s?
After meeting Lin Fan for the second time, Shen Liang knew that Lin Fan was a godly tycoon with a lot of connections.
However…
He had never thought that Lin Fan would know President Ma!
After all, there were too many tycoons in Hua Nation.
However, how many people were there who could really interact with Xiao Ma?
What was the situation now?
Not only did President Ma know Lin Fan, but he even took the initiative to greet him and shake his hand. He was even willing to go out and welcome him personally?
This…
This…
Who exactly was Lin Fan?
Lin Fan smiled. "I just met a friend. He brought me around, so I didn't tell you."
"Oh?" President Ma said. "Your friend?"
Then, he extended his right hand toward Shen Liang and said, "Hello, I'm Xiao Ma. How should I address you?"
President Ma took the initiative to greet him, shake his hand, and ask for his name? 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹.𝗻𝐞𝘁
Shen Liang felt his heart almost jump out of his chest. He said excitedly, "Shen Liang, my name is Shen Liang!"
Then, he stretched out his hands and held onto President Ma's right hand tightly.
251 Lunch; The General Manager's Invitation!
No wonder Shen Liang would be like this.
One had to know…
President Ma had built a small chat software into the world-famous Penguin Group step by step!
In the eyes of countless people, especially those in the IT industry, President Ma was definitely a god-like existence!
Now, this god was actually shaking hands with him!
How could he not be excited?
President Ma smiled and nodded. "Hello, Mr. Shen."
"Hello, hello," Shen Liang said repeatedly.
The two of them shook hands for a while before President Ma said to Lin Fan, "Mr. Lin, can I show you around?"
"Alright!" Lin Fan nodded.
It was different from when Shen Liang brought Lin Fan out for a stroll.
At this moment, Lin Fan was surrounded by a large group of people, including Penguin's Jiangbei branch's general manager, director, and President Ma.
Every time Lin Fan walked into an office, there would be a round of applause.
In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
Lin Fan, President Ma, the director, Shen Liang, and the others arrived at Jiangbei Hotel.
Obviously, the attendant had good eyes. After seeing them from afar, he immediately informed the manager, Zhang Shanfeng.
Zhang Shanfeng hurriedly came over and arranged the best private room and the most delicious food.
President Ma gently inhaled the fragrance that filled the room and praised, "Smelling the fragrance on this table, my appetite is immediately whetted! First of all, thank you, Mr. Lin. It's thanks to you that we can taste such delicious food!"
After saying that, President Ma picked up his wine glass.
The general managers and directors around him followed… As for Shen Liang, who was sitting beside Lin Fan, he was still in a daze. However, he also raised his wine glass.
Then, everyone downed the wine in their glasses!
"President Ma, you're too polite." Lin Fan smiled.
As he spoke, he also drank a glass.
"Mr. Lin, what do you think of our Jiangbei branch?" asked Mr. Ma.
Lin Fan said, "The company has a fitness room, a beverage room, a game room, a sky park, a star-rated canteen… It allows the employees to eat, drink, and play well while working… Overall, it's not bad!" 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙤𝙧𝒈
Lin Fan did not just casually praise him.
Generally speaking, many companies did their best to squeeze their employees and did not pay attention to their health at all.
There were very few companies like Penguin Group.
When President Ma heard this, he could not help but smile. He said, "Our company has always allowed our employees to work in a healthy and happy way…
"In fact, the Jiangbei branch is completely based on our Penguin headquarters."
Everyone drank a few more glasses of wine and chatted for a while.
President Ma finally told Lin Fan the reason why he came to Jiangbei today and asked Lin Fan out for a meal.
"In the past, I always thought that people would only have certain abilities and achievements when they reached the age of 30 and 40!
"It wasn't until I met you that I realized I was wrong!
"Mr. Lin, thank you for your support of Penguin Group! You've also increased your shares to 10%, becoming the second largest shareholder of Penguin Group!"
Silence!
The entire private room suddenly fell silent!
What did they hear?
10% of Penguin Group's shares!
One had to know…
Penguin Group was a super giant company with a market value of five trillion.
10% of the shares, which meant… Mr. Lin, who was in front of them, was worth more than 500 billion yuan?
What a terrifying number!
Originally, Shen Liang had gradually adapted to the atmosphere in the private room.
However, when he heard this, he was stunned again.
Lin Fan understood what Xiao Ma was thinking.
He was just worried that he would interfere with Penguin's work.
After all, the number of shares he held now had surpassed that of President Ma's. He had become the second largest shareholder of Penguin Group and had become an uncertain factor in the company.
Lin Fan smiled. "Rather than saying that I'm optimistic about Penguin Corporation, it's better to say that I'm optimistic about the development of a small chat software into Penguin Group…
"Therefore, my shares will not interfere with any of the company's work… I'll just earn the dividends according to the profits."
As expected, when President Ma heard this, an obvious smile immediately appeared on his face. He said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin. I won't disappoint you!"
Then, he raised his glass again and drank it in one gulp.
The meal lasted for nearly two hours.
After that, Lin Fan did not go to the Jiangbei branch of Penguin Group. Instead, he went straight to Coiling Dragon Villa and lay down on the soft bed before falling asleep.
An afternoon nap was a necessity for a handsome man.
…
President Ma did not stay in Jiangbei for long. After personally sending Lin Fan to his car, he took the nearest flight to Yang Cheng.
As the leader of a big group with a market value of five trillion yuan, President Ma was very busy every day.
As for visiting the Jiangbei branch of Penguin Group?
To be honest, he was not interested at all.
One had to know…
Penguin Group had branches in dozens of cities in Hua Nation.
If he had to visit every branch…
In that case, he would be visiting branches every day.
He would have to fly around every day.
The real reason was that he was worried that Lin Fan, the second largest shareholder, would affect the future of the company.
…
At this moment, in the Jiangbei branch of Penguin Group.
Shen Liang sat at his desk and looked at the progress of his work in the morning.
Then, he prepared to continue working.
At this moment, a sweet-looking woman slowly walked over.
"Hello, Mr. Shen. The general manager would like to see you in his office," she said softly.
Shen Liang's heart tightened slightly, and many reasons immediately surfaced in his mind.
He was extremely nervous, but he finally knocked on the door of the general manager's office.
"Please come in!" The general manager's deep voice rang out in the office.
When the general manager saw that it was Shen Liang, he hurriedly stood up and said with a bright smile, "Shen Liang, quickly sit!"
Then, the general manager personally poured him a cup of good tea and said, "Come, have a cup of tea."
The general manager personally poured tea for him?
Shen Liang was flattered.
"Shen Liang, I noticed you a long time ago. After all, very few young people can work so well.
"In addition, you also obtained good results in the last basketball game… Basketball is a sport that tests your ability to organize and coordinate. This shows that you have good leadership and coordination skills.
"Shen Liang, I have high hopes for you… It's really a waste for you to be in this small marketing department all the time.
"I've taken a look. The gaming department is lacking a supervisor. Are you interested in the role?
252 Agreed; Review!
Shen Liang was stunned when he heard the general manager's words.
He was doing his work well?
Last month, he was criticized by his supervisor for his poor marketing data.
Playing basketball could show his ability to organize and coordinate?
Even if there was a basis to that… That had nothing to do with him, right?
In that basketball game, he only played as a substitute for a few minutes and did not score a single point.
Just this… It was considered a good result?
When the general manager saw that Shen Liang did not reply, he could not help but say again, "Of course, if you don't like the role of a supervisor in the game department, you can choose another job."
At this moment, Shen Liang finally came back to his senses and hurriedly said, "I like it. I like the job!"
One had to know…
The gaming department was the most profitable department in Penguin Group.
At the same time, it was also the department that Shen Liang wanted to enter the most.
Now… not only would he be able to go to the gaming department, but he would also become a supervisor!
If he rejected this, Shen Liang felt that he would regret it for the rest of his life.
"That's great. You can report to the gaming department tomorrow," the general manager said.
Shen Liang nodded his head happily. In his heart, he was silently thanking Lin Fan.
He understood that all of this… was because of Lin Fan.
…
On the other hand, Hu Tian spent two days writing the solution to the Hail Conjecture written by Lin Fan into a thesis.
Then, under Lin Fan's name, she sent it to Annual Mathematics, one of the top four mathematics journals.
…
At this time, it was dawn in America.
Felder, the editor of Annual Mathematics, tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. He kept complaining, "In the future, if someone invites me for coffee at night, I'll definitely tell that person to f*ck off!"
Helpless, he finally got up and sighed. "What should I do now? Play games for a while? Forget it. I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep the entire night.
"Watch a movie? It would be a good thing to be with a beautiful woman."
Felder thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps I should check my email… Maybe there'll be some boring submissions. Those are the best thing for hypnosis."
As he spoke, he had already walked to the table and turned on his computer.
He even muttered, "Getting up to work in the middle of the night… Is there anyone in this world who loves work more than me? Chief Editor Ryan should really give me more bonuses."
As soon as Felder logged into his email, an email appeared on the bottom right corner of the screen.
"Hail Conjecture proof process? Someone actually sent such a manuscript. I can almost imagine the boring content inside… However, this is exactly what I want!"
As Felder spoke, he opened the email.
At first, he only took a few casual glances.
However, gradually, he began to frown…
Felder was the editor of Annual Mathematics, but that did not mean he knew nothing about mathematics.
On the contrary, his mathematical ability and vision were even better than the average mathematics professor.
"This manuscript doesn't seem so boring…" Felder muttered. "Moreover, it seems to make sense…"
Then, his gaze slowly fell on the author's name at the bottom right corner.
"Lin Fan from Jiangbei University?"
Seeing this… Felder seemed to have thought of something, and his pupils shrank.
"Lin Fan? The Lin Fan who solved Zhou's Conjecture and the Twin Prime Number Conjecture?"
Ordinary foreigners might not know Lin Fan.
However, Lin Fan's name could be said to be famous in the mathematics world.
"If it's him…" Felder said. "This shouldn't be a draft that I can review. I have to pass it to Chief Editor Ryan. That way, he can see that I'm still working hard in the middle of the night."
Felder forwarded the email.
…
The next morning.
Chief Editor Ryan had a habit of spending an hour every morning reading through all the emails.
After a while, he noticed the email that Felder forwarded.
When Ryan saw the email title, he frowned and said, "Why did Felder send a submission to me? Did he have a high fever in the middle of the night?"
In his opinion, as an editor of a top mathematics journal, he should have the most basic judgment.
Throwing the papers that claimed to solve the Hail Conjecture, Riemann's Conjecture, Goldbach's Conjecture, and so on into the trash without hesitation was one of the most basic judgments.
Ryan did not look at the content of the thesis. Instead, he glanced at the author's name out of habit.
The next moment, his pupils shrank like Felder's.
"Lin Fan?!"
Then, Ryan's expression turned serious as he carefully flipped through the thesis with an extremely focused gaze.
After a long time, he rubbed his sore eyebrows and said, "What an incredible calculation. However, whether the calculation is correct or not still needs to be verified by a great professor"
"Professor Jeffrey from Princeton," Ryan muttered. "He's an expert in abstract algebra. Let him do the review."
Then, he covered up the author's name and forwarded it to Professor Jeffrey.
Then, Ryan sent a message to Felder. [I've seen your hard work. This month… Your bonus will be doubled.]
Felder: [Thank you, Chief Editor Ryan!]
…
Princeton, Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics.
After a young man finished his work, he looked at Professor Jeffrey, who was almost buried in books. He asked, "Professor, you seem to have a lot of work to deal with. Do you need me to bring you a sandwich?"
Jeffrey slowly raised his head and smiled. "There's never enough work to be done, but I still have to eat. I'll go eat with you."
At this moment, an email popped up on Jeffrey's computer.
He clicked on it.
In the next moment, Jeffrey's entire body seemed to have been immobilized. He instantly stopped moving, and only his eyes were fixed on the screen, staring at the series of complicated calculations.
"Professor?" the young man called out softly. "Professor?"
Jeffrey finally reacted. "Oh, oh… You'd better bring me a sandwich. I still have work to deal with."
The young man complained in his heart, 'Didn't you just say that you can never finish your work, but you still have to eat? Why did this change in the blink of an eye?'
Of course, he only dared to complain in his heart. 𝚋𝚎dnov𝚎𝚕.𝚌om
Jeffrey had no intention of answering him. He kept staring at the screen, his face full of excitement.
253 Investigation Results; Head to the Bar!
To Lin Fan, solving the Hail Conjecture was just a simple task.
He did not care about it at all, and naturally, he did not pay attention to the reactions of others.
When Lin Fan woke up, it was already 5 PM.
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang.
He glanced at the caller ID. It was Deng Jihu, the captain of the Jiangbei Investigation Department.
Lin Fan did not hesitate and answered the call.
"Mr. Lin, am I disturbing you?" Deng Jihu asked carefully.
Lin Fan said, "No, I just woke up. Is there anything?"
Deng Jihu said, "The person who robbed you with a knife last time has already confessed all his bad deeds. We've handed him over to the court. If nothing goes wrong, he'll be sentenced to more than ten years.
"In addition, Jiangbei will be conducting a city-wide crackdown for a month regarding this armed robbery…
"We'll strictly investigate and punish all those who engage in criminal activities… What do you think of this?"
The captain of Jiangbei City's investigation team was speaking to a young man in his 20s with such respect.
If others knew about this, they would definitely be shocked.
Lin Fan said, "You handled it well."
When Deng Jihu heard this, he was extremely happy.
Then, he found a topic to chat about for a while before hanging up.
Lin Fan lay on the bed and casually played with his phone.
Not long after, his stomach let out a soft growl.
Hence, Lin Fan drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class and found a restaurant with a better environment. He ordered black truffle egg tarts, seafood curry, caviar chocolate… He spent a total of 24,899 yuan on a simple meal before he slowly walked out.
At this moment, the sky had already darkened.
Lin Fan raised his head and saw something not too far away… It was Jiuzhou Bar, and it was flashing with dazzling neon lights.
Seeing this…
Lin Fan was stunned.
Was this not the bar he had obtained today?
He rubbed his slightly round belly and thought that since he had nothing to do anyway, visiting his bar would be a good way to digest his food.
Even though the distance was not too far, Lin Fan still started the Mercedes-Benz and drove over.
At this moment, many cars were like carps crossing the river, gathering in the parking lot of Jiuzhou Bar.
Beautiful women and handsome men with good figures stood at the door as if they were waiting for someone.
When they saw handsome men and women walking out of Porsches, Ferraris, and other cars, they seemed to have finally met the person they were waiting for and quickly went up to them.
Lin Fan was driving a Mercedes-Benz G that cost nearly two million yuan. Coupled with his tall and handsome appearance, he quickly attracted a woman with heavy makeup and revealing clothes.
"Hey, handsome. Do you want to have a drink with me?" the woman asked.
Lin Fan used his Eyes of Truth to take a glance.
[Appearance: 70]
[Favorability: 50]
One had to know…
Lin Fan's women, such as Qin Yuxuan, Han Tian, Qiu Ziqian, and Huang Ling… Which one of them was not a great beauty with a score of 90 points or above?
He was used to eating delicacies, so how could he be interested in rotten vegetables?
Hence, Lin Fan said, "Not interested."
After saying that, he walked in.
The woman with heavy makeup stomped her feet in anger and said, "What are you being so cocky for? Isn't it just a Mercedes G-Class? Maybe it's even rented!"
Then, she returned to her previous position.
When Lin Fan walked into the bar, loud music echoed in his ears.
Many people gathered in front of the small booth, chatting and drinking.
At this moment, a waiter walked over and asked, "Sir, do you have a reservation?
Obviously, this ordinary waiter did not know that Lin Fan was his boss.
Lin Fan said, "No. If there's an empty seat, help me get a better one."
"Alright, this way, please."
Soon, Lin Fan was arranged to sit in the middle of the table. It was indeed a better seat as he said.
Lin Fan nodded his head in satisfaction and said casually, "Help me get two bottles of Golden Ace of Spades, some fruits, and snacks."
When the waiter heard this, he was extremely excited.
One had to know…
A bottle of Golden Ace of Spades was worth nearly 4,000 yuan. Two bottles… that was nearly 8,000 yuan. With some fruits and snacks, it was about 10,000 yuan!
To him, this was already considered a good performance.
"Okay, please wait a moment."
After the waiter finished speaking, he hurriedly ran over to bring the wine and snacks over.
Lin Fan poured a glass of Ace of Spades and took a sip. He nodded and said, "It's not bad. It's authentic."
At this moment, a surprised voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"Brother Lin Fan?"
Lin Fan turned his head slowly and said, "Tan Shengyu."
"Hahaha! Brother Lin Fan, it's really you!" Tan Shengyu strode over and called out happily. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝙣𝙤𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝙢
The woman with the typical face of an internet celebrity beside Tan Shengyu asked, "Shengyuu, who is he?"
"This is Brother Lin Fan, the boss of the circle of Jiangbei's rich young masters!" Tan Shengyu said."
"Boss? More powerful than you?" the woman asked.
"How can I compare to Brother Lin Fan?!" Tan Shengyu said.
When the woman heard this, her gaze toward Lin Fan lit up.
Lin Fan smiled, "Stop exaggerating."
"How is that exaggerating?" Tan Shengyu asked. "This is the truth!
"Brother Lin Fan, you're here for Ling Rou too, right?" Tan Shengyu asked after a pause.
"Ling Rou?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
"Brother Lin Fan, didn't you come to Jiuzhou Bar for her?" Tan Shengyu asked.
Lin Fan shook his head. "Before you said it, I'd never heard of this name."
"So that's how it is." Tan Shengyu said. "However, Brother Lin Fan, you came at the right time. I heard that Ling Rou is coming to sing today.
"Ling Rou not only sings well, but she's also very beautiful!"
The woman with the face of an internet celebrity said, "Is she very beautiful? Is she prettier than me?"
Tan Shengyu coughed lightly and said, "You're not as beautiful as her."
The woman snorted. Her pretty face was still a little unhappy.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
At this moment, the DJ standing in the middle of the stage of Jiuzhou Bar suddenly picked up the microphone and said, "Let's welcome our singer today, Ling Rou, onto the stage!"
Suddenly, a round of applause rang out in Jiuzhou Bar.
Then, a woman with exquisite facial features, hair like a waterfall, and a voluptuous figure slowly walked onto the stage.
Her skin was very fair and tender. Under the light of the bar, she looked so delicate and fragile.
Seeing this…
Even Lin Fan, who had seen countless beauties before, was stunned.
Then, Lin Fan could not help but use the Eyes of Truth on her.
[Appearance: 96]
[Favorability: 30]
96 points of attractiveness!
Just as Tan Shengyu had said, Ling Rou was indeed a great beauty!
254 Singing; Original Song!
Ling Rou looked around the bar with her big, gem-like eyes.
Then, she gently opened her willow-like lips and let out a sound that sounded like the strings of a zither.
"Welcome to Jiuzhou Bar. I'll sing 'Content'. I hope everyone will like it."
As soon as she finished speaking, slightly low music immediately sounded in the bar.
Then, Ling Rou slowly opened her mouth.
"Oh, to have a rainbow. Oh, to embrace the summer wind.
"The stars in the sky laugh at the people on the ground. I can't understand it, I can't feel that it's enough…"
Her voice was filled with magnetism, adding a touch of joy to the overall melody. It gave people a sense of anticipation and desire for love.
After the song ended, a round of applause rang out in the bar.
"Brother Lin Fan, what do you think? Ling Rou is pretty, right?" Tan Shengyu asked. "Her singing isn't bad, right?"
Lin Fan nodded his head in agreement.
One had to know…
Lin Fan had Heavenly Voice. At the same time, he was proficient in cello, violin, piano, guitar… It could be said that he was an expert among experts in music.
The fact that Lin Fan could acknowledge Ling Rou was enough to prove that she sang well.
Next, Ling Rou sang songs like 'Red High Heels' and 'Prose Poetry Written by My Father'.
Without exception, all the songs were sung very well. After each song ended, she received applause from many people.
At this moment, Ling Rou spoke again, "Next, I'll sing my original song, 'Sword Dance'. I hope everyone will like it."
The music in the bar paused for a moment.
Immediately after, very lively music sounded.
"An original song?" Tan Shengyu asked in surprise. "Ling Rou actually knows how to write songs?"
Lin Fan's face was filled with curiosity.
After the prelude, Ling Rou opened her willow-shaped lips again.
"The trees in the mountains form a forest, the curved stream flows, the handsome man wields a long sword, and the fallen leaves don't stick to his body…"
They all focused their attention on Ling Rou and listened quietly.
At this moment…
They had a vague feeling that Ling Rou was not wearing a casual outfit and standing on the bar stage.
Instead, she had changed into an ancient costume and was standing in the forest, waving the sword in her hand quickly.
The sword shadow was like light, the sword wind was like lightning, and the fallen leaves were like rain…
Her movements were so clean, neat, elegant, and filled with endless beauty. It was utterly fascinating.
Finally, Ling Rou slowly sang the last line of the lyrics.
At the same time, the music in the bar gradually stopped.
The next moment, the entire bar was filled with thunderous applause.
"Ling Rou is beautiful and has a sweet voice!" Tan Shengyu exclaimed excitedly. "Her original song is so good!"
The woman with the face of an internet celebrity said angrily, "If you like her so much, then go after her!"
Tan Shengyu seemed to realize that the woman was still beside him. He coughed lightly and said, "She's beautiful, but so are you! She's a different kind of beauty… I admire you. I like you."
When the woman heard this, she revealed a satisfied expression.
Then, Tan Shengyu said to Lin Fan, "Brother Lin Fan, we made the right choice to come here today. To be able to create such a beautiful original song, I think she'll definitely become a big singer if she's able to hold concerts!"
Lin Fan nodded his head.
In the next moment, a strange expression appeared on his face.
That was because a crisp notification sounded out in Lin Fan's mind.
[Ding! If you hold a concert with more than 100,000 spectators, you'll be rewarded with ten silver packets.]
This was… Did he trigger a mission?
Tan Shengyu seemed to have noticed the change in Lin Fan's expression and asked, "Brother Lin Fan, what's wrong?"
"Didn't you say that Ling Rou would become a big star if she holds a concert?" Lin Fan asked.
Tan Shengyu nodded in confusion and said, "Yeah, why?"
"Then I'll hold one for her!" Lin Fan said.
"Hold a concert for her?" Tan Shengyu was stunned.
At this moment, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded from afar.
A round-faced man in a suit and leather shoes walked over quickly. He bowed and said in a very respectful tone, "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you were here sooner."
"Are you the manager of Jiuzhou Bar?" Lin Fan asked.
"Yes," the round-faced man replied even more respectfully."
Today, when he suddenly found out that the bar had changed owners, he was very nervous.
It was because he did not know what the new boss was like. Would he fire him and replace him with a confidant?
Therefore, from morning until now, the round-faced man had a lot on his mind as he sat alone in the office.
It was not until he heard Ling Rou's original song 'Sword Dance' that he could not help but walk out of the office.
It was also at this moment that the round-faced man suddenly discovered that his new boss was actually in the bar. This gave him a huge shock.
"What's your name?" Lin Fan asked.
"Li Zhuang, my name is Li Zhuang," the round-faced man said.
"Manager Li, do you have a quieter place here?" Lin Fan asked.
"Yes, we have a private room here, a luxurious private room," Li Zhuang said.
Then, under Li Zhuang's lead, Lin Fan, Tan Shengyu, and the woman quickly arrived at a spacious private room.
Lin Fan said, "Can you ask Ling Rou to come?"
This sentence made Li Zhuang hesitate for a moment. He said very carefully, "Uh… Ling Rou could be considered a small-time singer… When she came to our bar, she announced long ago that she would only sing…"
Obviously, Li Zhuang had misunderstood. He thought that Lin Fan wanted Ling Rou to drink with him and even wanted to do something to her.
Ling Rou was simply too beautiful. Many customers had similar thoughts about her.
Furthermore, Lin Fan suddenly moved to a private room.
It was no wonder… Li Zhuanghui thought too much.
Obviously, Lin Fan understood his thoughts.
Regarding this…
Not only was Lin Fan not angry, but he even nodded his head in satisfaction.
If Ling Rou was really willing to sing with him or even do something else, Lin Fan would not have any interest in calling her over.
"Don't worry and call her over. I just wish to discuss some singing matters with her," Lin Fan said. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵
When Li Zhuangyan heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief and said respectfully, "Alright, I'll get Ling Rou to come over now."
After Li Zhuang left, Tan Shengyu could not help but ask, "Brother Lin Fan, are you very familiar with Li Zhuang?"
Lin Fan shook his head, "It's my first time seeing him too."
Hearing this, Tan Shengyu's expression became even more confused.
Lin Fan continued, "It's just that I'm the boss of Jiuzhou Bar."
255 Relax; Do You Want to Hold a Concert?
Tan Shengyu knew that Lin Fan was the boss of Jiangbei's circle of rich young masters. He had even invested one billion yuan and successfully increased it by four times.
Therefore, he was only a little surprised that Lin Fan was the boss of Jiuzhou Bar.
The expression of the woman with the internet celebrity face standing beside him was completely different.
She understood… how much it would cost to open a large bar like Jiuzhou in the center of Jiangbei.
At this moment, Ling Rou, who had been singing on stage earlier, slowly walked in under Li Zhuang's lead.
She held her phone tightly and looked at Lin Fan and the others with extreme vigilance.
Obviously, she was very afraid.
It was no wonder…
No matter what, Ling Rou was just an ordinary woman. In front of her were three men—Lin Fan, Li Zhuang, and Tan Shengyu.
If they had any evil intentions, it would be very terrifying.
Seeing this…
Lin Fan could not help but laugh. "Relax. I'm Lin Fan. I don't have any ill intentions toward you. Do you want to drink something?"
After hearing Lin Fan's voice, Ling Rou did not know why, but the fear in her heart immediately lessened.
However, she still shook her head and said, "No, thank you."
Lin Fan did not force her and nodded. "Do you have any plans for the future?"
Ling Rou was stunned for a moment. She did not know why Lin Fan would ask this question. For a moment, she did not know how to answer.
Lin Fan said, "Tell me more details… I think that singing in the bar is only temporary, right? Have you thought about your future plans?"
Even though Ling Rou did not know why Lin Fan asked this question, she still replied, "If there's a chance, I might participate in a program like 'Good Song' or become a music teacher."
Lin Fan said, "I just heard you sing 'Content', 'Red High Heels', 'Prose Poetry Written By My Father'… as well as your original song, 'Sword Dance'.
"Especially 'Sword Dance', the melody is light, free and easy, and very enjoyable. Do you have any other original songs?"
Ling Rou nodded. "I've written more than ten songs."
"Can you sing a few more songs for me?" Lin Fan asked.
Ling Rou did not hesitate and replied, "Sure."
Moreover, she had already found out from Li Zhuang that Lin Fan was the new boss of Jiuzhou Bar.
She was the resident singer of Jiuzhou Bar, so she could be considered an employee.
It was naturally not a problem for the boss to ask her to sing a few songs.
Then, Ling Rou said, "Should I sing a cappella here?"
"Do you know how to play the guitar?" Lin Fan said.
Ling Rou nodded.
Lin Fan said to Li Zhuang, who had been standing at the side. "Manager Li, can you get me a guitar?"
"Alright, please wait a moment."
After a while, Li Zhuang came in with a guitar.
Ling Rou stretched out her slender fingers and gently plucked the strings. "This is a song I wrote in my early days. It's called 'The World of Man'."
As soon as she finished speaking, her jade-like fingers quickly fiddled with the guitar strings.
Instantly, a crisp and pleasant song reverberated in the room.
After about ten minutes, Ling Rou sang a total of four songs.
Each song had its own unique characteristics. Coupled with Ling Rou's magnetic voice, it was very pleasant to listen to.
Lin Fan nodded in satisfaction.
"Do you want to hold a concert?"
This sudden question caused Ling Rou to be unable to react. As a result, she was unable to answer immediately.
"Do you want to hold a concert?" Lin Fan asked again.
At this moment, Ling Rou finally reacted and said seriously, "That's my biggest dream!"
After saying this, Ling Rou seemed to imagine the countless crowds below the stage. Her eyes faintly lit up.
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Alright. Then you should get prepared. In about a week, I'll hold a large-scale concert for you at the city's stadium."
Everyone was stunned once again.
One had to know…
To hold a concert in the city stadium, just renting the venue alone would probably cost nearly a million yuan.
Moreover, the concert also required the rental of lights, sound system, and stage… These added up to millions.
Just by listening to a few songs, he wanted to spend millions to hold a concert for her?
Lin Fan did not bother about it and continued, "You sang the few songs just now quite well! However, the best song is still 'Sword Dance'. Perhaps… you're more suited for that kind of style.
"Such songs should be more suitable for you to sing."
As he spoke, Lin Fan picked up the guitar and slowly strummed the strings under everyone's puzzled gazes.
"This is a song that I just composed. The tentative name is 'Galaxy'."
In the next moment…
Lin Fan's fingers that were strumming the guitar suddenly became faster and faster.
"It's a clear and cloudless night. A full moon hangs in the sky. Her long clothes dance in the wind. She's as soft as feathers, as light as a swan, and as fair as jade…"
Originally, no one was paying much attention.
However, when Lin Fan started playing the guitar and singing, everyone's faces were filled with shock and horror.
Soon, it was replaced by enjoyment and fascination.
Lin Fan played the guitar and sang so well!
At this moment…
In everyone's eyes, Lin Fan seemed to be above the boundless night sky. The full moon hung high above his head, and the white clouds under his feet formed a blanket.
He casually pulled out the green dragon sword at his waist and waved it in the wind. His movements were elegant and mysterious, causing the stars in the night sky to gather into a vortex, flow into a long river, and explode into fireworks…
He… He was an invincible sword immortal in the world!
"In the end, I split apart the chaos and the universe with a single sword strike!"
When Lin Fan sang the last line of the song, his right hand that was strumming the guitar slowly stopped.
The sound lingered and rippled.
Silence.
The entire luxurious private room was silent.
Everyone was still immersed in the song, unable to extricate themselves.
About five seconds later, Tan Shengyu was the first to come back to his senses and shouted excitedly, "F*ck! This is great!"
With his poor vocabulary, he could not describe how good it was. He could only express his admiration by saying 'f*ck'.
"Sing another song, sing another song, Brother Lin Fan!"
However, Lin Fan did not do as he wished. He waved his hand and said, "Maybe next time."
Then, he placed the guitar on the table and said to Ling Rou, "Add this song to the concert."
Ling Rou took a deep breath and slowly suppressed the excitement and admiration in her heart.
"Alright!"
Earlier, she had suspected that Lin Fan was joking about the concert.
256 Alphabet; News
Lin Fan stayed in Jiuzhou Bar until 10 PM.
Then, he went straight to Yi Ke City.
Huang Ling and Qiu Ziqian, who were sitting on the sofa and watching TV, were very happy to see Lin Fan.
"Darling, you came at the right time. I just bought a lot of clothes today," Qiu Ziqian said.
Lin Fan could not help but reveal a puzzled look.
Bought a lot of clothes?
What did this have to do with him?
She did not need to wear her clothes at night.
Qiu Ziqian seemed to have noticed Lin Fan's confusion and smiled, "Nurse, female investigator, maid…"
When Lin Fan heard this, his heart started beating faster.
Huang Ling's face turned red all the way to her neck.
It was nighttime…
Outside, the wind was howling and the rain was pouring, causing the entire building to shake.
…
The next day, the sky was clear.
After the rain at night, the branches became extremely tender and green, and the air also had a touch of spring fragrance.
Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes and looked at his phone.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,670,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Then, he turned his attention to the check-in system.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained 5% of Alphabet's shares.]
Seeing this…
Even Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
Lin Fan already had Penguin and Little Tanuki's shares.
Now, he had the shares of Alphabet.
In this way, he would be the common boss of the three giants of Hua Nation's internet industry!
This was definitely something to be happy about.
Lin Fan smiled. "If that's the case, it should be even easier to complete the concert mission."
Then, he picked up his phone and dialed one number after another.
…
About 20 minutes later, Lin Fan got out of bed and enjoyed the breakfast that Qiu Ziqian and Huang Ling had made. He then drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class toward Jiangbei University.
Time in the school was very relaxed and leisurely. Time flew by like water.
As the school bell rang, Lin Fan, Ma Zhong, Song Yi, Zheng Jinbao, and the others slowly walked to the cafeteria as usual.
They had just finished queuing up to get their food.
At this moment, the phone in Lin Fan's pocket vibrated.
12:00!
The red packets were here!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 88 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 9 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 6,666 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 20,000 yuan.]
Lin Fan tapped on the screen and received a total of 50,321 yuan.
He did not care about it at all and threw his phone back into his pocket.
Then, he picked up his chopsticks and started eating leisurely.
After the meal, Lin Fan lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Meanwhile, in the girls' dormitory of Jiangbei University…
Song Jiaxin sat by the window, reading a management book seriously.
Just as Song Jiaxin said, she chose mathematics purely out of interest.
However, as the daughter of the Song family, she naturally could not just consider her interests. She also needed to have the corresponding management ability.
Otherwise, after she graduated and started a company or became a president or CEO, it would be very easy for the company to have problems.
Therefore, in her spare time, Song Jiaxin would read some books on management and economics.
In many people's eyes, they always felt that rich kids only knew how to eat, drink, and play.
However, they did not know that many rich kids worked harder than they imagined.
At this moment, the phone next to Song Jiaxin vibrated slightly.
She casually glanced at the screen and realized that someone in the Future Group had sent a message. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Tan Shengyu: [Brother Lin Fan can actually sing!]
Liu Yuhang: [You heard Brother Lin Fan sing? Was it nice?]
Tan Shengyu said: [It can't even be described as pleasant to the ears! It was simply too good! I swear, that was definitely the best song I've ever heard in my life!]
Seeing this…
Even Song Jiaxin could not help but be interested.
She quickly sent a message.
Song Jiaxin: [What song did Lin Fan sing?]
Tan Shengyu: [Galaxy? That's right! That's the name!]
Sun Luguo: [Galaxy? I don't think I've heard this song before.]
Zhang Bin: 'I haven't heard of it either.]
Tan Shengyu: [Of course, you guys haven't heard it. It's a song that Brother Lin Fan composed himself on the spot!]
Liu Yuhang was speechless. Brother Lin Fan could write songs?
Tan Shengyu said: [It's more than just writing songs. Moreover, Brother Lin Fan knows how to play the guitar! The way he played and sang was simply amazing!]
When Song Jiaxin read this, her eyes lit up. It was as if she could already see the scene of Lin Fan playing the guitar and singing.
Tan Shengyu said: [Oh right, Brother Lin Fan is planning to hold a concert at the city stadium.]
Liu Yuhang: [Brother Lin Fan's concert? Tell me when!]
Tan Shengyu: [Ahem, it's not Brother Lin Fan's concert, but… He's planning to hold a concert for a resident singer in Jiuzhou Bar.]
Tan Shengyu: [That singer's singing is pretty good too. Oh right, when the time comes, she'll also sing the song Galaxy that's written by Brother Lin Fan.]
Liu Yuhang: [No matter what, I must support Brother Lin Fan's concert!]
Duan Qian: [That's right!]
Sun Luguo: [Holding a concert for the resident singer in a stadium… is Brother Lin Fan preparing to enter the entertainment industry?]
Liu Yuhang: [Entertainment industry? Hehe, this is not a bad idea!]
Zhang Bin: ]Brother Lin Fan is holding a concert at the city stadium? This isn't a small event! However, since Brother Lin Fan wants to do it, we have to help him promote it.]
Zhang Bin: [By the way, when is Brother Lin Fan going to hold his concert?]
Tan Shengyu: "Brother Lin Fan said a week later."
Zhang Bin: [A week? It's a little short. I don't think I've seen any publicity for the concert.]
Tan Shengyu: [It's normal that you haven't seen anything because Brother Lin Fan only decided to hold a concert yesterday.]
At this moment, a message popped up in everyone's WeChat news.
[Free tickets! On February 29th, at eight o'clock sharp, a mysterious and grand concert will be held in Jiangbei City Stadium!]
When everyone saw this message, they were all stunned.
The Future Group which was bustling with activity only resumed after a while.
Zhang Bin: [Did you guys just receive the news on WeChat?]
Duan Qian: [I did . On February 29th, at eight o'clock sharp, a mysterious and grand concert will be held in Jiangbei City Stadium… Could this be the concert that Brother Lin Fan is going to hold?]
Sun Luguo: [A week later is the 29th. It should be. I didn't expect Brother Lin Fan to have such a deep relationship with Penguin Group.]
Liu Yuhang: [No wonder so many directors of internet companies came to greet Brother Lin Fan at the Imperial Hotel.]
Tan Shengyu: [Brother Lin Fan is too awesome to get Penguin Group to help promote the concert!]
257 The Three Big Shots' Simultaneous Promotion; Envy!
Sun Luguo, Liu Yuhang, Tan Shengyu, Duan Qian, and the others in the Future Group were all from Jiangbei… There were even a few rich young masters from Jiang Province.
However, even if they wanted to get Penguin Group to help promote an event, it would be very difficult.
Lin Fan decided to hold a concert yesterday and Penguin Group helped to promote it this afternoon!
This kind of efficiency was simply… terrifying!
No wonder they could not help but exclaim.
Just as they were exclaiming in amazement, their phones vibrated slightly, and a piece of news popped up in the UA Browser.
[Shocking! Jiangbei City Stadium is actually doing such a thing. The time is…]
Everyone was curious and slowly clicked on it.
[A mysterious and grand concert is about to be held at Jiangbei City Stadium. Free tickets will be given, and the entire city is thrilled. It'll be held on February 29th, eight o'clock sharp! Don't miss the excitement!]
The originally lively Future Group fell silent again.
A moment later, a new message appeared.
Duan Qian asked: [Do you have the UA Browser installed?]
Zhang Bin: [Are you referring to… the news that popped up in the UA Browser just now?]
Duan Qian: [Yes.]
Duan Qian: [The UA Browser is actually helping to promote it! This… The UA Browser seems to belong to Little Tanuki, right?]
Sun Luguo: [Brother Lin Fan is really amazing to get Little Tanuki Group and Penguin Group to help promote the concert!]
Liu Yuhang: [Of course!]
Tan Shengyu: [Brother Lin Fan, you're awesome! You are my idol forever!]
At this moment, everyone's cell phones vibrated slightly. A piece of news popped up on Today's Headlines.
[Notification! On February 29th, at eight o'clock sharp, a mysterious and grand concert will be held in Jiangbei City Stadium! The tickets are free!]
After this piece of news appeared, the Future Group fell silent again.
Zhang Bin: [You… Did you guys receive the pop-up message from Today's Headlines?]
Duan Qian: [F*ck! Today's Headlines are also promoting the concert!]
Zhang Bin: [This… Is this really the concert that Brother Lin Fan is holding?]
Silence.
The Future Group fell silent again.
Even Sun Luguo and Liu Yuhang, who knew a little about Lin Fan's identity, hesitated.
In fact…
When they saw the UA Browser promotion, they were already hesitant.
That was right.
Was this a concert that Lin Fan was going to hold?
If Penguin Group was the only company that helped with the promotion, it would still be within their understanding.
Now… It was the three magnates promoting it at the same time!
Furthermore, Tan Shengyu had just said that Lin Fan had only decided to hold a concert yesterday.
In just one day, the three magnates had all made a move?
This… This kind of situation seemed to only appear when something major happened in the country, right?
This was a last-minute concert!
…
Lin Fan naturally did not know how the crowd was reacting.
He was sleeping soundly in the dormitory.
About an hour later, he slowly opened his eyes.
Lin Fan first glanced around the dormitory. Ma Zhong was quietly flipping through a book. Zheng Jinbao was sitting in front of the computer and reading very attentively. Song Yi was lying on the bed and playing with his phone silently. be𝚍𝚗ove𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone rang.
It turned out to be a call from Jiangbei's leader, Jiao Yang.
"Brother Lin, am I disturbing your rest?" Jiao Yang asked.
Lin Fan said, "No, I was already awake."
"That's good… Well, Brother Lin, you told me this morning that you were going to rent the city stadium for a concert on the 29th… Do you need crowd control measures?" Jiao Yang asked.
Jiao Yang knew Lin Fan's identity very well.
Jiao Yang had always wanted to build a good relationship with him.
When Lin Fan said that he wanted to rent the city stadium for a concert on the 29th, Jiao Yang agreed without hesitation.
In Jiao Yang's opinion, even if Lin Fan wanted to invite a big star over, it would not be a problem.
After all, it was not like Jiangbei City Stadium had not held similar events before.
However…
However, he did not expect that this afternoon, WeChat, UA Browser, and Today's Headlines… were all promoting the free concert at Jiangbei City Stadium.
Free and mysterious!
These two words had always been the most attractive!
The news, through WeChat, UA Browser, and Today's Headlines, would probably be seen by hundreds of millions of people!
When Jiao Yang saw the pop-ups, he was shocked.
He was surprised that Lin Fan had such a great ability to get Little Tanuki, Penguin, and Alphabet to help him promote the event.
Jiao Yang was worried again.
He could almost imagine how many people would gather on the night of the 29th.
Too many people meant danger.
If there was a stampede, it would definitely be very terrifying.
Lin Fan understood Jiao Yang's worries and said, "Later on, I'll give you 100,000 free tickets. Only those with tickets can enter the stadium."
"100,000? Our stadium only has 60,000 seats," Jiao Yang said.
"Then 60,000 tickets for inside the museum and 40,000 tickets for outside the museum," Lin Fan said.
Jiao Yang was slightly stunned. Outside? "Uhh… Can the audience see anything?"
Even though he was knowledgeable, he had never heard of an audience watching a concert outside the venue.
"It's okay. I'll put up the display screen when the time comes," Lin Fan said.
The concert… A display screen?
Jiao Yang opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something.
As long as Lin Fan was willing to limit the number of people, it would be fine.
Besides, it was a problem whether those who managed to snatch the tickets would go.
Jiao Yang could not help but sigh.
…
When a melodious bell rang, it indicated that today's class was over.
Many students stretched or yawned as they got up and prepared to walk out.
At this moment, Song Jiaxin suddenly came in front of Lin Fan and said, "Lin Fan, how about we have a meal together later?"
Song Yi, Zheng Jinbao, Ma Zhong, and the others felt like they had eaten lemons.
A few days ago, Teacher Tiantian asked Lin Fan to go to her office.
Now, the famous ice beauty in the class had taken the initiative to invite Lin Fan for a meal!
This…
This…
Why did no beautiful women invite them?
Facing Song Jiaxin's invitation, Lin Fan did not hesitate at all and replied, "Sure."
Then, under the envious gazes of all the students, Lin Fan and Song Jiaxin walked out of the classroom together.
258 Eating; Increasing Favorability!
M+, a two-star Michelin restaurant in F Nation, was located on the 37th floor of Baojia Building.
Warm gemstone lamps, leather and solid wood tables and chairs, wool rugs, and endless floor-to-ceiling windows… It gave people the feeling of being in a palace at the top of the clouds, and it was extremely enjoyable.
Lin Fan and Song Jiaxin had just walked in when a waiter asked respectfully, "Good evening, Sir and Madam. Do you have an appointment?"
"My surname is Song, and I reserved table no. 9," Song Jiaxin said.
When the waiter heard this, the respect on his face became even more prominent.
One had to know…
It was very difficult to reserve a table at M+ Restaurant.
Especially table no. 9.
This was because table no. 9 was located in the middle of the French window. One could see the scenery outside without looking up. At the same time, one could also enjoy the best service in the restaurant.
Ordinary people could not make a reservation at all. One had to have a certain identity and status.
After Lin Fan and Song Jiaxin sat down, the waiter took out a thick and generous menu and said, "Respected Madam and Sir, what can I do for you?"
Song Jiaxin casually flipped through the menu and said to Lin Fan, "The foie gras and cheese snails here taste pretty good. Do you want a serving?"
Lin Fan said, "If even you think it's good, then it must be delicious!"
Lin Fan was not flattering her with these words.
After all, Song Jiaxin was the daughter of the Song family and had tasted countless delicacies since she was young.
How could the taste of a dish that even she approved of be bad?
Song Jiaxin had heard similar words countless times.
However, not only did it fail to make her happy every time, but it also made Song Jiaxin feel a little disgusted.
However, when she heard Lin Fan's words, Song Jiaxin's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sweet smile. She said, "Is that so? I'll help you order, then."
"That's great," Lin Fan said.
After all, ordering food was sometimes a very troublesome thing.
The waiter respectfully took the menu and said, "Yes, Ma'am, Sir. Please wait a moment."
M+ Restaurant was very efficient.
Not long after, different types of exquisite desserts were served.
After the appetizers were finished, the foie gras, cheese snails, pan-fried flatfish, M5 steak, and other dishes were served one after another.
The foie gras was tender and smooth without a trace of a fishy smell. The cheese snails were soft and fragrant, while the dried fried flatfish was crispy…
Each dish had its own characteristics and was very delicious.
Lin Fan could not help but nod.
When Song Jiaxin saw this, a smile appeared on her pretty face. She raised her wine glass and said, "Cheers."
"Cheers!" Lin Fan said.
The two high-heeled glasses clinked lightly in the air, producing a crisp and ethereal sound.
Lin Fan first placed the red wine by his nose and sniffed it gently. He roughly sensed the fragrance of Romanée-Conti.
Then, he swayed the glass gently, allowing the fragrance of the wine to spread.
Lin Fan took a sip of the red wine and allowed it to flow down his throat into his stomach.
"When the red wine enters my mouth, it's as if a veil has brushed across my throat. The taste is full, sweet, and complete… The taste of Romanée-Conti is indeed not bad." Lin Fan nodded.
This scene…
Song Jiaxin saw everything. Her gem-like eyes faintly reflected a trace of light as she praised, "If you didn't have the face of someone from Hua Nation, I would have thought you were a noble or prince from some European country.
"I really want to meet your parents and ask them how they taught you to be so outstanding."
Lin Fan said, "Then I guess I'll have to disappoint you. They're all very ordinary."
The two of them chatted as they ate, relaxed and satisfied.
By the time they had eaten their fill and arrived downstairs, the sky had already turned completely dark.
Looking into the distance, the lights were shining like stars. It was very beautiful.
Song Jiaxin smiled and asked, "I heard… you can sing?"
Lin Fan thought for a moment and knew where Song Jiaxin heard about it.
"Yes."
"Then can you sing it for me?" Song Jiaxin asked again.
"You want me to sing here?" Lin Fan asked.
Song Jiaxin pointed at the guitar shop not far away and said, "Let's go there."
The spacious and bright guitar shop had all kinds of guitars.
Lin Fan casually picked one up and plucked the strings. Hearing the crisp sound, he asked, "What song do you want to listen to?"
"Galaxy," Song Jiaxin said.
Lin Fan nodded his head.
Then, he quickly plucked the strings with both hands. The light and hurried music immediately rippled through the guitar shop.
In the next moment…
Lin Fan opened his mouth. "It's a clear and cloudless night. A full moon hangs in the sky. Her long clothes dance in the wind. She's as soft as feathers, as light as a swan, and as fair as jade…"
Lin Fan, who was drinking earlier, was like a noble or a prince.
Now that he was singing, he was like a sword immortal who roamed the universe. He had an outstanding bearing and was mesmerizing.
Perhaps it was because she had just drunk some red wine, but Song Jiaxin's pretty face gradually blushed.
"In the end, I split apart the chaos and the universe with a single sword strike!"
Finally, Lin Fan finished singing the last line. His hands that were playing the guitar gradually stopped.
The boss, who had been standing not far away, could not help but applaud and praise, "The singing was really good, and the playing was also very good!"
"You flatter me," said Lin Fan.
Song Jiaxin, who was a little intoxicated by the song, slowly came back to her senses when she heard the conversation between the two of them. She said, "You're too humble… This is indeed a very nice song."
Lin Fan smiled. "Really? Actually, this song is more suitable for women to sing. If you have time, you can go to the concert on the 29th."
"Then I'll be waiting to receive a ticket from you," Song Jiaxin said.
"Alright," Lin Fan said.
Then, the two left the guitar shop and headed toward Jiangbei University.
Along the way, Lin Fan and Song Jiaxin chatted non-stop and laughed from time to time.
After entering the campus, their shadows were long under the illumination of the lights.
Not long after, they arrived at the dormitory.
"Then I'll go up first!" Song Jiaxin said.
Although she said that, a different look appeared in her eyes.
Lin Fan was all too familiar with this expression.
He had seen it on Teacher Tiantian, Chu Yunyue, Qiu Ziqian, Huang Ling, Xia Xue, Xia Bing, and the others…
Lin Fan could not help but use the Eyes of Truth on Song Jiaxin.
[Appearance: 95]
[Favorability: 89]
89 points in favorability!
This was a good impression!
259 Discussion; Invitation!
In the next few days, Lin Fan would occasionally return to the Coiling Dragon Villa to sleep and water the Spiritual Tea Seeds.
It had to be said that the Spiritual Tea was indeed Spiritual Tea. The plants were growing at a speed that was visible to the naked eye.
Right now, the Spiritual Tea had already grown up to Lin Fan's calf. Furthermore, they had sprouted green leaves.
At this rate, it would not be long before this place would become a dense tea plantation.
Of course, Lin Fan spent most of his time in school experiencing the leisurely life of a student.
In the blink of an eye, it was the afternoon of February 28th.
Lin Fan, Song Yi, Ma Zhong, and Zheng Jinbao came to the classroom and found seats at the back.
"Do you guys know that there'll be a concert at the city stadium tomorrow?" Ma Zhong asked.
"How could I not know?" Zheng Jinbao asked.
"In the past few days, WeChat, Today's Headlines, and UA Browser have been releasing pop-up messages every three to five days. When I received a parcel from Shunshun Express yesterday, I realized that the box was also printed with an advertisement promoting the concert. There are also the LED display screens at the Imperial Hotel, Feiyang Building, Qiankun Building, and so on. They were all publicizing the concert…"
"Oh right, it's also trending on Weibo today."
"Which celebrity do you think is going to perform at this concert?" Ma Zhong asked.
Zheng Jinbao rubbed his chin and said like a wise man, "Many people on the internet say that it's Zhou Lun and Chen Xun. However, according to my speculation, it's more likely that it's a group."
"A group?" Ma Zhong asked, puzzled.
"Let's not talk about Weibo, Shunshun Express, the Imperial Hotel, Feiyang Building, and so on…" Zheng Jinbao said.
"You should know which companies WeChat, Today's Headlines, and UA Browser are under, right? Behind them are Penguin Group, Alphabet, and Little Tanuki!
"Would the three giants promote a concert like that?
"Unless the singer is the boss of the big three!"
When Lin Fan heard this, his face could not help but reveal a look of shock.
However, the singer was not the boss of the big three.
The boss of the singer was the boss of the three big shots!
Zheng Jinbao watched live broadcasts on the computer every day. Lin Fan used to think that he only had female streamers in his heart.
He did not expect him to have such a strong analytical ability.
"There's only one answer… This is a charity concert for all the stars!
"The big three and Shunshun Express are supporting public welfare! That's why they're working so hard to promote it!"
When Lin Fan heard this, his lips twitched.
As expected, Zheng Jinbao only had those beautiful streamers in his heart.
Ma Zhong scratched the back of his head as if he was considering the possibility of Zheng Jinbao's words.
Song Yi, who was beside him, said nonchalantly, "Whether it's a group of stars or any other celebrities… they've never done so much publicity before. It must be very lively. Besides, it's free. We have to go and take a look!"
As he spoke, he took out two tickets from his pocket.
"You actually got two tickets!" Zheng Jinbao exclaimed. "Which zone? What number?" 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑜𝘳𝘨
"Zone C, 933 and 934," Song Yi said proudly.
"Zone C, number 900? Those seats are very close to the front!" Ma Zhong said in surprise.
One had to know…
A total of 100,000 tickets were distributed for this concert.
Among them, there were 60,000 on-site tickets and 40,000 off-site tickets.
The 60,000 tickets were divided into ten sections, each with 6,000 seats.
It was very difficult to get tickets to the venue.
It was even more difficult to get the first 1,000 seats.
"That's right!" Song Yi said proudly.
Ma Zhong said, "Song Yi has two tickets. We have to think of a way to snatch two more… This way, we can all go to the concert together."
Song Yi coughed and said, "Well… You should have said so earlier. I've already promised to give a ticket to a beauty from the Finance Department."
Zheng Jinbao spat lightly, "So you chose hoes before bros. Ma Zhong, if you want to watch the concert, I'll help you get tickets tonight!"
Lin Fan listened to their conversation and smiled. "There's no need to fight. I have some tickets. If the two of you want to go tomorrow, I'll help you register your information and all you need to do to get into the venue is swipe your ID card."
"Brother Lin Fan, you're the best!" Zheng Jinbao said excitedly."
"Thank you, Brother Lin Fan!" Ma Zhong said happily."
Then, Lin Fan said to Song Yi, "Song Yi, what about you? Do you want me to help you register your information?"
Song Yi hesitated and said, "Uhh… Forget it, I've already agreed to go to the concert with that girl from the Finance Department."
Lin Fan nodded his head nonchalantly.
After the bell rang, the afternoon class officially began.
Time in the classroom always flowed as fast as water.
Almost as soon as Lin Fan closed his eyes, the bell rang.
After Lin Fan had his dinner, he drove his Mercedes-Benz G-Class straight to the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex.
He first watered the Spiritual Tea Plants. Looking at the green sprouts, he felt refreshed.
Then, Lin Fan lay on a leather sofa and opened WeChat.
Qin Yuxuan had been very busy recently. Moreover, she was in Modu, so it was not suitable for her to come and watch the concert.
His younger sister, Lin Xiaoyao, was now in her third year of high school…
It would not be long before the college entrance examination, so it was not suitable for her to come to the concert either.
When he went to Yi Ke City the day before yesterday, he had already told Huang Ling and Qiu Ziqian about the concert.
When he met Teacher Tiantian at school yesterday, he also told her about the concert.
Chu Yunyue found out about the concert from Feiyang Building and had already expressed her intention to go.
…
Lin Fan kept scrolling through WeChat and soon, his gaze landed on Han Tian's name.
Lin Fan: [I'm organizing a concert. Do you want to go over tomorrow?]
Han Tian: [Tomorrow? Are you saying that the mysterious concert at the city stadium is organized by you?]
Lin Fan replied: [Yes.]
Han Tian: [Oh my God! I'll go! I want to go!]
…
Then, Lin Fan's gaze fell on Xia Xue and Xia Bing's WeChat chat boxes.
Lin Fan: [Are you going to the city stadium to watch the concert tomorrow?]
….
Jiangbei University, female dormitory.
Xia Xue and Xia Bing, the two doll-like girls, were sitting at the table obediently and reading very seriously.
At this moment, their phones vibrated slightly, and a WeChat message popped up.
Beautiful Young Lady Yan: [Sisters, have you eaten?]
Xia Xue and Xia Bing: [We've eaten]
Beautiful Young Lady Yan: [Have you been drinking enough water?]
Xia Xue and Xia Bing: […]
Beautiful Young Lady Yan: [Cough, cough, cough. Alright, I just wanted to say that tomorrow's concert will be very exciting. Are you really not going to attend it?]
Xia Xue and Xia Bing: [We have a competition in a few days. We have to study, so we won't be attending the concert, Mom.]
Beautiful Young Lady Yan: [Who's your mother? What mother? I've said it many times. Call me Sister!]
Beautiful Young Lady Yan: [Did you hear that? Call her Sister!]
However, Xia Xue and Xia Bing did not care at all.
They turned their attention back to their books and thought to themselves, 'Will he participate in this competition?'
At this time, Xia Xue and Xia Bing's mobile phones vibrated again, and another WeChat message popped up.
260 Happy Twins; Let's Go!
In the past, Xia Xue and Xia Bing were not too enthusiastic about competitions.
Only when the teacher informed them to participate were they forced to register.
However, since the National Mathematical Modeling Competition last year, they had been looking forward to competitions.
It meant that Lin Fan might participate!
They would have more time to spend with Lin Fan!
Every time Xia Xue and Xia Bing recalled the National Mathematical Modeling Competition and how they had designed models with Lin Fan and solved problems, a sweet smile would appear on their pretty faces.
Therefore, not long ago, when Xia Xue and Xia Bing learned that there was another competition, they did not hesitate and chose to sign up directly.
After signing up, they began to study very hard.
Xia Xue and Xia Bing's thoughts were very simple.
If Lin Fan also signed up, then they definitely could not drag him down.
At this moment, their phones vibrated again. They thought it was another message from their mother.
Therefore, they did not look at their phones immediately.
However, when they flipped through their books, they inadvertently glanced at their phone screens from the corners of their eyes.
It would not have mattered if they did not look at the message, but after looking at it, it was as if their entire bodies had been frozen. They were completely motionless!
Had they stopped moving?
No!
Xia Xue and Xia Bing were still moving. Their already beautiful eyes were constantly shaking with gorgeous light.
A WeChat message had popped up on their phone screens.
Lin Fan: [Are you going to the city stadium to watch the concert tomorrow?]
In the next moment…
Xia Xue and Xia Bing could not wait to pick up their phones. Their fair jade-like fingers pounced on the screens. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎l.𝚘rg
One heard the crisp sound of their slender fingers colliding with the screen.
After a while, a long paragraph appeared on their screens.
Then, without hesitation, they deleted all the words.
The two's fair and tender fingers jumped rapidly on their phone screens again.
This was repeated four times.
Xia Xue and Xia Bing finally replied to the same message.
Xia Xue and Xia Bing: [We want to go.]
Lin Fan: [Alright, send me your ID number then.]
Lin Fan: [Forget it. I'll bring you guys over tomorrow.]
He would fetch them for the concert!
Xia Xue's and Xia Bing's hearts almost jumped out of their throats.
At the same time, they were afraid that if they were too slow, Lin Fan would misunderstand.
Thus, their fingers danced on the screen like phantoms.
Xia Xue and Xia Bing: [Mhm!]
Lin Fan: [It's already quite late. Rest early. Goodnight.]
Xia Xue and Xia Bing: [Good night.]
The conversation between the three of them ended here. It was very short.
Xia Xue and Xia Bing did not put down their phones.
They looked at the short conversation and their faces were full of smiles.
They treated their phones like a treasure and hugged them tightly in their arms, allowing their body temperature to heat up the phones!
That night…
Xia Xue and Xia Bing were lying on the bed. The smiles on their pretty faces did not disappear even for just a moment.
There was no sleep for them tonight.
…
Compared to the sleepless twin beauties, Lin Fan slept very comfortably today. He almost snored as soon as he lay down.
The next day, the sky was clear and the sun was warm.
Lin Fan slowly climbed up from the soft bed
As usual, he glanced at his phone.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 3,570,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
He chose to ignore this kind of information that he saw every day.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received ten million yuan.]
Lin Fan complained, "It's another ten million. Can't I get something else?"
He shook his head and slowly got up from the bed.
After washing up, he took out the Wagyu beef sandwich, lobster burger, and high-end milk that he bought from the two-star Michelin restaurant yesterday for a total of 3,888 yuan from the refrigerator.
It was a simple breakfast.
Then, Lin Fan lay on the leather sofa and played with his phone. He was very calm and relaxed.
His life was peaceful in Jiangbei… However, near Jiangbei City Stadium, it was the complete opposite.
Waves of noisy honking rang out endlessly, and dense rows of vehicles were blocking the road.
"What happened today? Why is it so congested?" A passenger in a taxi asked in confusion.
The driver looked at the passenger strangely and asked, "You don't know?"
"Know what?" the passenger asked.
"Are you a foreigner? It's either that or you haven't watched the news for a long time, right?
"Jiangbei City Stadium is holding a concert today!"
At this point, the driver could not help but reveal a look of anticipation.
"Isn't the concert starting at eight o'clock in the evening? Why is it congested now?"
"A lot of people are worried that the traffic will get worse at night." The driver smiled.
…
As the driver said, many people were worried about the traffic jam at night.
Therefore, they rushed to the stadium early.
Some people who had planned to go to the stadium later were worried that the traffic would get worse at night when they saw the traffic jam start so early.
Therefore, they also left early.
Gradually, the roads around the stadium became even more congested.
…
Naturally, Lin Fan had no idea about all of this.
When he was hungry, he would ask the Michelin restaurant to send him some food. When he was thirsty, he would take out a bottle of Kobe mineral water from the refrigerator.
He lay on the sofa and spent the day leisurely.
Lin Fan looked out the window at the sky that was gradually darkening and muttered, "I almost forgot that the concert is today… It should be about time. I should go to the stadium."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Fan strode out.
At this moment, two pilots were standing in front of the MD902 private helicopter in the villa, their faces full of excitement.
It was not like they had not flown a helicopter before.
However, they mostly flew small helicopters such as the Rottway A600 and the Schwarzer 300C.
Compared to the MD902, the difference was like comparing a Santana and a Lamborghini…
Forget about flying the MD902… Even if they were to see it… After all, they had only seen it in magazines.
It felt like they had been driving a Santana for many years and were suddenly given a Lamborghini.
No wonder the two of them were so excited.
When the two pilots saw Lin Fan, they quickly said, "Hello, Mr. Lin."
Lin Fan nodded. "Hello, let's go now. Let's go to Jiangbei University first."
Firstly, he had expected that there would be a traffic jam today.
Secondly, a helicopter would be helpful during the concert.
That was why Lin Fan had transferred two pilots from Xia Airlines.
"Yes, Sir!" the two pilots said in unison.
With a violent rumble, MD902 gradually rose into the air and sped away.
Before long, it turned into a small black dot in the air.
261 Waiting Silently; Maintaining Order!
Jiangbei University, downstairs of the girls' dormitory.
Xia Bing and Xia Xue had been standing under the big tree in front of the dormitory since morning. Their two pairs of bright eyes were always silently watching the distance.
Their eyes were filled with anticipation.
At this moment, their roommate, Zhao Ni, who had just returned from outside, walked forward in surprise and said, "Xia Bing, Xia Xue, why are you still here? Could it be that you've been standing here since this morning?"
Although Xia Bing and Xia Xue were introverted and they rarely talked to their roommates, Zhao Ni could easily feel that the two of them were very kind.
Therefore, she was very willing to be friends with them.
Xia Bing and Xia Xue did not like to lie, so they said truthfully, "Yes… That's right."
"What are you waiting here for? Have you had dinner?" Zhao Ni asked.
Xia Bing and Xia Xue said, "Not yet."
"Not yet? Wait, you haven't even eaten lunch yet, have you?" Zhao Ni asked again.
Xia Bing and Xia Xue nodded in embarrassment.
"What?!" Zhao Ni immediately widened her eyes and shouted, "What are you doing? Hurry up and eat!"
Xia Bing and Xia Xue hesitated. "We… We're waiting for someone."
"Who is it? Why are you waiting like this? You've already waited for a day! No matter who it is, it's not worth it to wait for them like this!" Zhao Ni shouted.
After saying that, she was about to forcefully drag the two of them to the cafeteria.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound in the distance.
Then, a cool-looking helicopter appeared above the school.
This scene… attracted the attention of many people.
"F*ck! It's a helicopter!"
"A helicopter actually came to our school!"
"So cool!"
While many people were looking up at the sky and discussing, a rope ladder descended from the helicopter.
Then, a tall and handsome figure slowly climbed down the rope ladder.
Seeing this…
Xia Bing and Xia Xue seemed to see a hot sun that was constantly approaching them, completely illuminating their eyes. Their faces became extremely bright.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "You must have waited for a long time."
Xia Bing and Xia Xue shook their heads repeatedly. Then, they seemed to have thought of something and quickly handed Lin Fan a bottle of energy drink each from their small backpacks.
Regarding this…
Lin Fan was already used to it. He took the energy drinks and drank a mouthful from each bottle.
After Xia Bing and Xia Xue saw it, the joy on their faces became even greater.
Lin Fan said, "Let's go."
At this moment, Zhao Ni, who had been standing at the side without saying a word, shouted, "Leave? Do you know that Xia Bing and Xia Xue have been waiting for you here for an entire day?
"They haven't even eaten lunch or dinner yet! You still have the face to ask them to leave with you? Don't think you're so great just because you have money!"
Zhao Ni was also shocked by the helicopter in the sky.
Thus, she was not able to rebuke Lin Fan immediately.
Lin Fan was shocked. "What? Have you been waiting here for a day?"
Xia Bing and Xia Xue lowered their heads like children who had done something wrong.
Lin Fan looked at their tired faces and thought…He could not help but recall how they had waited for him on the basketball court every day, and his heart ached slightly.
He reached out and gently stroked their heads. "Don't be so silly in the future."
Xia Bing and Xia Xue nodded in enjoyment.
After a pause, Lin Fan said, "It's my fault. I didn't say when I would pick you up yesterday.
"Alright, let's go eat now."
Xia Bing and Xia Xue said obediently, "Okay."
Then, Lin Fan said to Zhao Ni, "Do you want to go with us? We're going to the concert later."
Although Zhao Ni's tone just now was very impolite and it could even be said to be a reprimand, Lin Fan was not angry.
It was because he understood that… Zhao Ni treated Xia Bing and Xia Xue really well.
Therefore, he had a good impression of her.
Zhao Ni seemed to realize that she seemed to have misunderstood something. She could not help but stutter, "I… I've already eaten, so I won't go."
Lin Fan did not force her. He said goodbye and entered the helicopter with Xia Bing and Xia Xue using the rope ladder.
"To the Imperial Hotel."
"Yes!" the two pilots replied.
Rumble!
After a loud noise, the helicopter sped into the distance and stopped steadily at the landing point on the top floor of the Imperial Hotel.
Under the lead of the attendant who was already waiting on the top floor, Lin Fan and the rest quickly arrived at the VIP room.
At this moment, the table was already filled with sumptuous dishes.
Lin Fan personally scooped two bowls of soup and handed them to Xia Bing and Xia Xue, "You haven't eaten all day. Have a bowl of soup to warm your stomachs first."
Xia Bing and Xia Xue were like chicks pecking at rice as they kept nodding.
The bowl of soup was quickly finished.
Then, Lin Fan picked up some noodles for them and said, "Eat some more noodles to replenish your energy."
…
While Xia Bing and Xia Xue were eating, there were already countless people standing around the Jiangbei City Stadium.
In order to prevent any accidents, police cars, fire engines, and ambulances were lined up on the side.
Standing at the entrance were men in suits and leather shoes. Some were bald, some had a buzz cut, and some had tattoos on their bodies. They exclaimed, "I've never seen such a big scene!"
"Brother Wang, your boss is amazing!"
"He's amazing!"
The manager of Flying Dragon Security Company, Wang Shengli, said proudly, "Of course!"
In the past, Wang Shengli knew that Lin Fan was different.
Now, he was even more impressed by Lin Fan.
Immediately after, Wang Shengli said seriously, "As you can see, there are a lot of people here tonight. Later, you must make sure that order is maintained. Don't let any accidents happen!"
Today, Wang Shengli transferred hundreds of security guards from Flying Dragon Security Company.
However, to be on the safe side, he called some other people over to help.
"Brother Wang, don't worry. There won't be any problems!"
The bald man in the suit said, "If anything happens to the area I'm in charge of, you can kick my head like a ball!"
"That's right!"
"Me too!"
The others echoed.
"If there's a chance in the future, I'll let you meet my boss." Wang Shengli nodded in satisfaction.
When everyone heard this, they all revealed an unconcealable excitement.
In their opinion…
A person who could host such a grand concert was definitely a top-notch existence.
If they could meet, it would definitely be a great thing.
"Thank you, Brother Wang!" everyone said in unison.
"Alright, it's about time. You can let the audience in slowly."
"Alright, we'll go and arrange it now!"
Soon, there were long lines at the ten side doors of the Jiangbei City Stadium. Under the protection of many security guards, people walked in in an orderly manner.
262 Puzzled; Gather!
Even though the stadium had ten side doors, there were 100,000 spectators for this concert! It would still take a long time for everyone to enter.
Song Yi swiped his ticket and went through a strict security check before finding his seat.
"I'm finally in."
Next to him, a girl named Gao Lanwen, who scored about 80 points in appearance, looked at the dark shadows in the stadium and sighed, "There are too many people! I don't know if Juan Juan and the others have come in."
As she spoke, she could not help but look into the distance, trying to find her friends.
"Use this." Song Yi took out the binoculars that he had prepared earlier and said.
"You even brought binoculars!" Gao Lanwen exclaimed in surprise."
"This will allow us to see more clearly." Song Yi smiled. "I remember Liu Juan and the others are in the 4,000+ seats in Zone E, right? It should be behind that direction…"
Gao Lanwen looked in the direction Song Yi was pointing at. Sure enough, she soon saw her friends. She could not help but wave and shout at them.
However, how could the other party hear her voice from such a distance?
Song Yi looked at Gao Lanwen's cute face and was fascinated.
Then, he raised his head and looked into the distance as if he was looking for something, but he did not find anything.
"I don't know where Ma Zhong and the others are. Forget it, I'll just ask them."
As he spoke, Song Yi took out his phone and quickly sent a message to the 104 Roommate group.
Song Yi: [Ma Zhong, have you entered the stadium?]
Ma Zhong: [We're coming in.]
Zheng Jinbao: [Song Yi, do you know where we're sitting? Our seats are VIP 196 and VIP 197, which are in the middle of the VIP area!]
Zheng Jinbao: [The chairs here are all real leather sofas. Can you believe it?]
Song Yi was speechless. [Really?]
Zheng Jinbao: [Do you think I'm lying?]
Then, Song Yi took the binoculars from Gao Lanwen and looked at the VIP area.
A chubby man with a round face waving his hand in his direction.
If this person was not Zheng Jinbao, then who was he?
Song Yi slowly put down his binoculars and said regretfully, "If I had known earlier, I would have asked Brother Lin Fan to help get me seats."
…
At this moment, Gundong Entertainment's music director, Zhao Peng, and deputy director, Zhang Xiaohai, also lined up to enter the stadium.
Zhang Xiaohai looked at the densely packed figures and said, "There are so many people!"
Zhao Peng said, "That's normal. After all, WeChat, UA Browser, and Today's Headlines have been promoting it for several days in a row. Plus, it's free… If the venue was bigger, I wouldn't be surprised even if the number of people is doubled."
"Director Zhao, whose concert do you think this is?" Zhang Xiaohai asked.
"I don't know." Zhao Peng shook his head.
Then, he looked at his watch and frowned. "It's almost eight o'clock. Why is it still dark around the stage?"
In fact…
Zhao Peng was not the only one who was puzzled. Many people in the audience had similar doubts.
The audience members in the stadium were still confused, while those who had only managed to grab standing tickets outside the stadium were a little irritated.
"What's going on? The venue is black. Where's the screen?"
"It's fine if you don't let me in, but there's no display screen either?"
"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come."
…
While everyone was still confused and discussing, a helicopter quietly stopped beside the stadium.
After Lin Fan, Xia Bing, and Xia Xue got off the plane, they went straight to VIP 1 at the front of the stadium.
Hu Tian, Chu Yunyue, Qiu Ziqian, Huang Ling, Han Tian, Song Jiaxin, and the others were all there.
When they caught sight of Lin Fan, their faces lit up.
"You guys are finally here. I thought you were going to be late."
"You're Xia Bing and Xia Xue, right? You're really cute."
"Sit down, sit down."
Xia Bing and Xia Xue were very introverted. Originally, they were a little shy when they saw so many people.
However, after being warmly greeted by them, they finally calmed down.
Looking at the relaxed and harmonious expressions of the girls, Lin Fan heaved a sigh of relief. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝘯𝑒𝘵
In fact…
He had also gone through a mental struggle at the thought of letting the girls meet.
All the girls knew that Lin Fan had other women.
However, they had never met each other before.
Lin Fan did not know what would happen if they really met.
However… he had to face this sooner or later.
After all, there was still a long way to go.
Lin Fan could not separate everyone into different worlds.
Therefore, he finally took this opportunity to let them meet first.
From the looks of it, the situation was not bad.
Lin Fan scanned the women, and when he saw Song Jiaxin, he could not help but use his Eyes of Truth.
[Appearance: 95]
[Favorability: 89.5]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan was stunned.
89.5?
What was going on?
Favorability?
Song Jiaxin's favorability toward him last time seemed to be 89.
It had increased?
Tan Shengyu, who was sitting at the back, looked at the row of beauties sitting around Lin Fan and praised sincerely, "As expected of Brother Lin Fan!"
"Is that even necessary to say?" Liu Yuhang said.
Sun Luguo, who was sitting next to him, looked at his watch and said, "It's almost eight o'clock. Why is the stage still dark?"
"Don't tell me it's not ready yet?" Zhang Bin asked.
Just as they were wondering, a soft sound suddenly appeared on the stage, attracting everyone's attention.
263 The Concert Began; Lively Venue!
In the next moment…
The originally dark stage suddenly shot out 20 dazzling pillars of light.
At the same time, ten high-end, magnificent, and cool Rolls-Royce Phantoms appeared on the huge stage.
Rolls-Royce Phantoms! Each was worth ten million!
Ten cars meant 100 million!
Most ordinary people might not even see one in their lifetime.
At this moment, a total of ten cars had appeared!
The stadium was immediately filled with exclamations.
"F*ck! Rolls-Royce Phantoms!"
"Moreover, there are ten of them!"
"So cool!"
"Using Rolls-Royce Phantoms as the light, how awesome!"
…
These exclamations did not only appear in the stadium.
The audience outside the hall also exclaimed loudly.
This was because a huge high-definition display screen of more than 100 square meters suddenly appeared in front of the originally pitch-black area.
Although they could not see the ten Rolls-Royce Phantoms at the scene, through the huge high-definition display screen, the outline and details of the Rolls-Royce Phantoms could be seen more clearly.
On the display screen, the light beams formed by the 20 headlights looked more like 20 laser beams that cut through the night, adding a dreamy color to the stage.
Just as countless viewers were exclaiming in amazement…
A woman in a white muslin dress slowly rose from the stage. She only stopped when she was a few meters above the stage.
She… was today's main character, Ling Rou.
Rumble!
At the same time, a helicopter suddenly appeared in the sky and shot out a dazzling beam of light that landed on Ling Rou.
The white muslin dress on her body was as dazzling as the stars.
This dress was actually inlaid with countless diamonds!
Seeing this…
The audience exclaimed again.
"Heavens! So beautiful!"
"Is this a fairy?"
"They're actually using a helicopter as a stage light. Isn't this too extravagant?"
"Furthermore, it's not an ordinary helicopter. It's an MD902 worth 45 million!"
"The dress she's wearing seems to be the work of a famous Louis Vuitton designer, Lawrence. It's called Star!"
"That's right! It's Star! I saw it at the International Fashion Exhibition Center in Country F not long ago! This dress is inlaid with 365 diamonds, and the total value is more than 10 million US dollars!"
…
At this moment, the entire stadium was filled with a burst of light music.
The music surrounded the audience and made them feel as if they were wearing headphones. It was extremely enjoyable.
Some people shouted again.
"FM Acoustics! It's FM Acoustics! Heavens! This concert is actually using FM Acoustics' sound system!"
"Is this audio system very expensive?" someone asked.
"Is it very expensive? Don't you know? FM Acoustics' is the world's top audio system. If a car needs to be equipped with FM Acoustics, it would cost at least a million yuan! And a large-scale sound system for a concert like this would cost at least 20 million? No!
"Maybe 50 million!"
Everyone around gasped.
A set of speakers cost 50 million?
Oh my God, this had completely exceeded their imaginations.
At this moment, the prelude music ended. Ling Rou, who was standing on the stage, slowly opened her willow-shaped lips.
"The trees in the mountains form a forest, the curved stream flows, the handsome man wields a long sword, and the fallen leaves do not touch his body…"
Her singing was light and free… With the help of FM Acoustics' sound system, it was as if the audience was depicting the wonderful life of an ancient chivalrous woman in the minds of the audience.
At this moment, the audience seemed to have been transported into a world of ancient martial arts. They saw with their own eyes the swordswoman dancing as he eliminated evil, becoming famous all over the world!
Everyone was intoxicated by it and could not extricate themselves.
The song came to an end after a melodious tune.
The moment the music stopped, thunderous applause erupted.
Ling Rou listened to the audience's enthusiastic applause and looked at the excited expressions of the audience. Her beautiful eyes were faintly glistening with tears.
She had successfully held a concert and won everyone's favor.
Then, Ling Rou looked around the audience.
Soon, her gaze landed on Lin Fan, who was sitting at the front.
Ling Rou understood that all of this… was because of Lin Fan.
After the applause stopped, Ling Rou said, "Thank you for your applause."
"My name is Ling Rou, and I've liked martial arts since I was young. I used to buy martial arts manuals from street stalls and secretly practice them at home.
"After a month of seclusion, I felt that my martial arts had already reached great success. Therefore, I ran out to fight with the boy who had bullied me in the past. In the end… I was beaten up until I cried."
The audience did not expect the beauty on stage to have such an experience. They could not help but laugh.
Ling Rou was also very satisfied with everyone's reaction and continued, "Later on, I finally understood something. I shouldn't be a martial arts genius. I wouldn't be able to become a martial arts expert.
"I could only imagine myself as a martial arts expert, which was how I came to compose 'Sword Dance'."
There was another round of applause.
Qiu Ziqian, who was sitting in the front row, praised, "Is this our other sister? She's too beautiful, and her singing is so good! Moreover, she actually knows how to tell stories. How amazing!"
Lin Fan almost choked on his own saliva. He explained, "I don't have that kind of relationship with her."
"Really? It doesn't matter. There'll be that kind of relationship in the future anyway," Qiu Ziqian said.
The surrounding women nodded in agreement.
…
At this moment, Ling Rou, who was standing on stage, said, "Later on, my mother told me that girls should be quiet instead of always wanting to fight… In this way, there would be a prince riding a white horse who would dote on me like a princess in the future.
"However, this prince never appeared. So, I wrote another song, 'I Am the Princess'!"
A burst of pleasant music rang out in the spacious gymnasium again.
"The fairy tale book in the cabinet, the happiness of enjoying it alone, I had many feelings when I was young…
"I put on a gorgeous gown, walked into a gorgeous palace, and held the prince's hand to sing and dance…"
Different from the previous carefree and elegant song, the melody of this song was more brisk and leisurely.
With the help of the FM Acoustics' sound system and the helicopter lights, Ling Rou seemed to have really become a noble princess.
Everyone felt as if they were in a gorgeous banquet hall. They watched as Princess Ling Rou and a tall and handsome prince swayed gently to elegant music.
Everything was so wonderful.
The music stopped, and the audience once again burst into enthusiastic applause.
264 Confession; End!
Ling Rou had a good voice and was very hardworking. She sang hard every day.
Today… her hard work over the years had finally paid off.
At the end of each song, the live audience would give a round of applause.
In the blink of an eye, she had sung more than ten songs.
The atmosphere at the scene did not slow down even though time had passed.
!
On the contrary, it became even more enthusiastic.
Everyone's faces were filled with enjoyment and excitement, and their bodies could not help but sway along with the music.
Ling Rou picked up the microphone again and said, "I've always had a dream, and that was to hold a concert of my own.
"But I understood that dreams were just dreams. Most of the time, they can only appear in dreams.
"And today, someone helped me realize it!
"I wish to thank him!
"I don't know how long I have left in this life, but I know that he's definitely the most important person in my life!"
As she said this, Ling Rou's gaze was fixed on Lin Fan.
As soon as she said this, the crowd immediately erupted into an uproar. Many of the audience members exclaimed loudly.
"Heavens, isn't this too romantic?"
"Ling Rou, you're the best!"
"Is this a confession? No!"
…
VIP 1.
Hu Tian, Qiu Ziqian, Chu Yunyue, Huang Ling, Han Tian, and the other women all looked at Lin Fan with smiles.
That appearance… It was as if they were saying, "Are still gonna say that she's not our sister?"
Lin Fan did not expect Ling Rou to say something like that. He rubbed his nose. He was too charming.
…
As soon as Ling Rou finished speaking, pleasant music immediately sounded in the venue.
Although the audience was still a little excited because of Ling Rou's words, after the music started, they could not help but quieten down.
They were all looking forward to it… They were looking forward to Ling Rou's beautiful singing!
At this moment, Ling Rou finally opened her willow-shaped red lips slowly.
"It's a clear and cloudless night. A full moon hangs in the sky. Her long clothes dance in the wind. She's as soft as feathers, as light as a swan, and as fair as jade…"
If the previous Sword Dance had brought the audience into the world of chivalrous righteousness and lofty sentiments, then Galaxy brought the audience into the world of immortals and heroes.
As the song rang out, they seemed to see Ling Rou move mountains and fill the sea, exterminate demons and devils, and finally leap into the vast starry sky.
The sun and moon revolved above Ling Rou's head, and the stars spun around her body. It was extremely magical.
She… She was the only fairy in the world!
In the next moment…
She raised her hand and formed a rainbow sword. She slashed at the endless void. The terrifying sword light formed a storm that covered the sky and the sun, causing all chaos and the universe to shatter like bubbles. The most dazzling fireworks in the world bloomed.
"In the end, I split apart the chaos and the universe with a single sword strike!"
The music gradually stopped and the song ended.
Silence.
The entire place was silent at first.
Everyone was shocked by this song.
After a while, someone gradually came back to their senses and started clapping.
Then, everyone applauded.
The applause shook the sky like thunder!
Some people could not help but shout loudly.
"You sang so well!"
"It was so great!"
"This is definitely the best song I've ever heard!"
"Ling Rou, you're the best!"
…
In fact…
It was not just the ordinary audience who was excited. Zhang Xiaohai, the deputy director of Gundong Entertainment, was also excited and shouted, "She sang these songs so well! Especially the last song, it was simply… It was like splitting the heavens and earth!
"It's so good!"
Director Zhao Peng jumped up excitedly and shouted, "Beautiful appearance, excellent voice, strong creative ability, perfect stage performance… She's definitely going to be a superstar in the future!
"No, I have to talk to her!"
Then, he hurried toward the stage.
However, there were many people who had similar thoughts.
The security guards had already expected this situation and blocked the surroundings of the stage. How could they let anyone get close?
…
Ling Rou looked at the audience who were cheering for her crazily and was extremely excited. She bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your applause, thank you!"
Then, she slowly descended from the stage that was several meters high.
At the same time, a voice rang out in the stadium.
"Today's concert will end here. Please leave in order…"
However, the vast majority of people were still immersed in the beautiful song and did not have any thoughts of leaving.
…
VIP 1.
Hu Tian, Chu Yunyue, Huang Ling, Qiu Ziqian, Han Tian, and the others all looked at Lin Fan.
The looks on their faces… It was as if they were saying, 'Why didn't we know that you wrote such a good song?'
Lin Fan coughed lightly and said, "Writing songs is a very simple matter. That's why I didn't tell you guys." 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
At this moment, a clear notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Mission completed—hold a concert with more than 100,000 spectators. You'll receive ten silver packets.]
Mission accomplished!
Lin Fan was in a pretty good mood as well. His lips curled up slightly.
At this moment, Qiu Ziqian, who was sitting beside him, suggested, "Ling Rou must be very tired after singing on stage for so long. Let's go and visit her."
This sentence immediately gained the unanimous agreement of all the women.
Normal people could not get close to the stage, but Lin Fan and the others were not included in this group of people.
….
Xia Yan, like many others, was full of praise for Ling Rou's singing.
She slowly stood up and muttered, "What a pity. If I had let my two obedient sisters learn to sing when they were young, they might be able to sing nice songs for me now."
The next moment, her eyes that were looking straight ahead moved slightly as if she saw two familiar figures. She said in surprise, "Huh? Xia Bing, Xia Xue?"
However, by the time Xia Yan wanted to confirm it again, the two familiar figures had already been completely submerged in the sea of people.
Xia Yan could not help but shake her head. "It's just my misconception. That's right, they should still be studying seriously in school and preparing for the competition…
"They're completely obsessed with Lin Fan…As a mother… As an elder sister, I can't just watch them sink into oblivion. I have to save my good sisters."
Xia Yan's lips curled into a faint smile.
265 Take Good Care of Her; Hot Discussion!
Lin Fan led the women through the passage under the lead of Flying Dragon Security Company's manager, Wang Shengli. They soon arrived at the stadium's lounge.
At this moment, Ling Rou was sitting inside.
She seemed to have heard footsteps and slowly turned around.
Instantly, Ling Rou's beautiful face appeared in everyone's sight.
Ling Rou was very beautiful…
However, when she was on stage, she gave off a dream-like feeling as if she was in the clouds—out of reach.
Now, she had truly appeared in front of everyone.
The Star diamond dress, her jet-black hair, fair skin, and voluptuous figure… The air was faintly filled with a unique fragrance of sweat.
Even Lin Fan was stunned.
Just as Lin Fan was looking at Ling Rou, Ling Rou was also looking at Lin Fan.
At this moment, in Ling Rou's eyes, Lin Fan was the only one standing in the lounge.
If it was not for Lin Fan, she might have stayed in the bar for two years and then given up singing.
If it was not for Lin Fan, she might not have been able to hold a concert in her lifetime, let alone receive so much applause.
At this moment, Lin Fan's handsome face, tall figure, crisp voice, and the scene of him performing Galaxy… All of them were like scenes from a movie, gradually engraving themselves in the depths of Ling Rou's mind.
In Ling Rou's eyes, the entire lounge had turned dark while Lin Fan's body emitted a dazzling light.
At this moment, Lin Fan, who was initially stunned, suddenly had a change in expression.
It was because a crisp voice had suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Charming Aura, triggered!]
Then, Lin Fan could not help but use the Eyes of Truth on Ling Rou.
[Appearance: 98]
[Favorability: 95]
As expected, Charming Aura was triggered on Ling Rou.
At this moment, Qiu Ziqian praised sincerely, "So beautiful!"
"You're also very beautiful."
"Sister Ling Rou, your songs are so good!" Huang Ling said. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝘰𝑣𝑒𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"Thank you," Ling Rou said.
It seemed that it was easy for beautiful women to become friends.
After a while, the women started chatting with Ling Rou and laughed from time to time.
Even the shy Xia Bing and Xia Xue also said something.
They chatted for more than half an hour.
At this moment, Hu Tian said, "Sister Ling Rou sang so many songs on stage just now. I think she's very tired… Lin Fan, you have to take good care of her later."
When the women heard this, they also echoed.
"Yeah, take good care of her."
"I'll leave Sister Ling Rou to you."
Then, the women walked out and closed the door.
At this point…
Only Lin Fan and Ling Rou were left in the lounge. It was very quiet
The two of them sat facing each other, and they could even vaguely hear each other's breathing.
The air… It gradually became hot and dry, causing Ling Rou's pretty face to flush red.
Then, the two of them seemed to be attracted by something as they kept approaching… They got closer.
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
? (ˉ﹃ˉ?)
…
After more than an hour, the door to the lounge slowly opened.
Then, a helicopter flew over from afar and carried the two of them toward Coiling Dragon Villa.
The Coiling Dragon Villa Complex was very lively tonight. Soon, a long and special song sounded, and it did not stop for the entire night.
….
The Coiling Dragon Villa Complex was bustling with activity, and the internet was even more lively.
On Weibo.
Jun Zhi ZN: [Oh my God! The concert at Jiangbei City Stadium is definitely the best concert I've ever been to! It was so cool!]
Dragon God: [Isn't that so? Not only was Ling Rou beautiful, but she also sang so well! From today onward, she's my goddess! No! She's a true goddess!]
Guarding the World: [I got the tickets but didn't go. You guys are praising it so much that I'm a little regretful now.]
Shadowless: [Brother, you'll regret it for the rest of your life. I took some videos with my phone. You'll know when you watch it.]
Guarding the World: [F*ck, f*ck! The stage of the concert, am I seeing things? Are those ten Rolls-Royce Phantoms?! Using ten Rolls-Royce Phantoms as lights? 100 million yuan worth of lights?]
The Person Closest to God: [Brother, you're not mistaken. Those are lights that cost 100 million! However, this is still nothing! Do you see the stage lights shining on Ling Rou? That's the light of a MD902 helicopter! By the way, that helicopter costs 45 million yuan.]
The Person Closest to God: [Also, do you see the shiny dress on Ling Rou? Those are all diamonds! This dress is called Star and is worth more than ten million US dollars!]
Most Mysterious Person: [The sound system at the concert is much better than at other concerts. Because they used a complete set of FM Acoustics. The total cost should be more than 50 million yuan.]
Most Mysterious Person: [In addition, there were ten 100 square meters LED high-definition display screens outside the stadium. The total cost of this is also more than ten million yuan.]
As the most mysterious person concluded, more people exclaimed.
Isha Irene: [100 million on lights, 45 million on stage lights, 70 million on clothes, 50 million on the sound system, ten on million screens… That's a total of 275 million yuan! Heavens!]
Shadowless: [Don't just talk about money. Look at Ling Rou's appearance and listen to her singing! That's simply the pinnacle of looks and vocals!]
….
Soon, the concert at Jiangbei City Stadium became the top trending topic on Weibo.
Moreover, under the intentional promotion of Penguin, Little Tanuki Corporation, and Alphabet, videos and news of the event were still spreading.
At this moment, at Gundong Entertainment.
Although it was already very late, Director Zhao Peng still called for an emergency meeting with the higher-ups.
"I'm sorry to have called everyone over so late at night, but there is indeed something very important to discuss with everyone.
"I won't say much about the gossip. You should all know that there was a concert at Jiangbei City Stadium tonight. If you don't know, you can take a look at the trending searches on Weibo.
"I've checked the information about the concert's main character, Ling Rou. She doesn't seem to have signed a contract with any entertainment company… What I mean is that we have to use methods such as offering a sky-high offer and massive amounts of resources as well as big-name advertisements to get her to sign a contract with our company or cooperate with us as much as possible.
"Otherwise, if other companies get ahead of us, we'll be left with endless regret."
After hearing his words, some of the higher-ups frowned, while others lowered their heads in thought.
Finally, a bald man said hesitantly, "Ling Rou should be quite popular now. However, there were some people who were very popular in the past, but in the end, they all disappeared completely in the ocean of the internet.
"Do we need to put in so much effort to work with her?"
266 Snatching; Lin Fan's Principle!
As soon as the bald man finished speaking, many higher-ups nodded slightly.
Obviously, they agreed with him.
They had been in the entertainment industry for too long and had seen too many such things.
On the internet, there were often people who suddenly appeared with high popularity.
However, these people were often like small sand dunes. Once the waves hit them, nothing would be left.
Zhao Peng said, "I know. Well, it's useless for me to say more. You should understand after watching this video."
Then, he turned on the projector.
Immediately, Ling Rou, who was wearing the Star diamond dress, appeared on the screen. She was holding a microphone and singing Galaxy.
Watching this…
The pupils of all the higher-ups present constricted, and their faces were filled with shock and intoxication.
When the video ended, everyone was still staring at the projector. The entire conference room fell into silence.
Zhao Peng looked around and explained, "This is the video I recorded at the concert today. The phone's functions are limited, so be it her singing or her stage presence, they aren't conveyed very well… The feeling I had at the scene was definitely several times better than this!"
At this moment, the chairman, who had been sitting at the head of the table and had not spoken all this time, said, "Just do as Director Zhao said just now and do your best to establish a partnership with Ling Rou!"
The final blow!
…
In fact, Gundong Entertainment was not the only entertainment company that had its eyes on Ling Rou.
Those companies either had a meeting at night like Gundong Entertainment, or they were prepared to wait until tomorrow morning to discuss it. Perhaps they were already working on a plan…
The timing was different, but their goal was the same. They wanted Ling Rou to cooperate with them!
…
Lin Fan and Ling Rou had no idea about all of this yet.
The next day, when a gentle breeze blew past the treetops, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes.
He looked at Ling Rou, who was lying quietly beside him, and the bright red marks on the white bed that looked like plum blossoms. He could not help but smile.
At this moment, Ling Rou seemed to have sensed something. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly.
When she saw Lin Fan in front of her, she could not help but recall what had happened yesterday. She was like a shy rabbit, her face flushing red as she buried her head in the blanket.
Her movements seemed to be a little too big. She felt a tearing pain in her lower abdomen, and a pearl-like teardrop rolled down her beautiful eyes.
"Ling Rou, are you alright?" Lin Fan asked with concern."
"…I'm fine," Ling Rou said with some difficulty.
At this moment, Ling Rou's phone rang.
She turned her body with difficulty as if she wanted to pick up her phone.
Lin Fan said, "Let me help you."
As he spoke, he directly handed the phone to Ling Rou.
Ling Rou looked at the caller ID and saw that it was an unknown number. After a moment of hesitation, she still picked up the call.
"May I ask if this is Ms. Ling Rou?" a magnetic voice came from the phone.
"Yes, it's me. May I ask who you are?" Ling Rou said softly.
"Hello, Ms. Ling. I'm Zhang Xiaoqian, the general manager of Gundong Entertainment. I wonder if you're willing to cooperate with our company? Our Gundong Entertainment Company is willing to give you leading roles in TV shows and movies, let you release records, go on variety shows… You'll also receive more than ten million yuan if you sign a contract with us," Zhang Xiaoqian said.
Ling Rou's expression changed slightly when she heard the voice on the phone.
Although she was only a resident singer at the bar, that did not mean that she knew nothing about entertainment companies.
On the contrary, she was very familiar with entertainment companies.
That was because when she was free, she would pay attention to the entertainment news.
She knew that… Gundong Entertainment was one of the top ten entertainment companies in the country.
She had once dreamed of entering such a big company.
Now… Gundong Entertainment was actually taking the initiative to call her?
Furthermore, she was even being offered a contract that would pay her ten million yuan. She would be able to appear on TV shows and movies, release records, and go on variety shows!
This… Even in Ling Rou's dreams, she had never dreamed of these things!
After a while, Ling Rou came back to her senses.
However, she did not say anything immediately. Instead, she looked at Lin Fan.
She understood that the reason for this call was entirely because of Lin Fan.
Then, Ling Rou said, "Uhh… I need to think about it first."
"We, Gundong Entertainment, really hope to work with you," Zhang Xiaoqian said. "Of course, I know that this matter requires careful consideration. If you have any other requests, you can tell us. Our Gundong Entertainment has high hopes for you. At the same time, we also have great sincerity…"
Ling Rou and Zhang Xiaoqian chatted for a while before hanging up.
She had just hung up but received a few more calls.
Without exception, they were all the top entertainment companies in Hua Nation.
Every entertainment company offered very generous terms.
Ling Rou looked at her phone and hesitated.
Lin Fan gently stroked Ling Rou's hair and said, "You want to go into the entertainment industry?"
Ling Rou nodded.
Lin Fan was not surprised by this answer.
Whether it was Ling Rou's musical ability or her ability to perform on stage, everything showed that she was very suitable for performing and singing. 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝑙.𝘰𝑟𝑔
Lin Fan said, "If you like it, then go for it. I won't keep you by my side. If you run into any trouble, you have to tell me at any time because you're my woman!"
His words were overbearing yet sweet, making Ling Rou blush even more.
Lin Fan was not just saying this casually. He had always kept his word.
Otherwise, he could just have all his women live in the Coiling Dragon Villa Complex. He did not have to do anything and could guarantee that everyone would have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
Instead, he let Qin Yuxuan start an investment company in Modu, he let Chu Yunyue manage Flower Stem, and he let Hu Tian continue to be a lecturer…
If one loved someone, one should give them enough freedom, not tie them tightly to one's side.
Lin Fan said, "You must be a little tired from yesterday. Have a good rest. I'll get someone to send some breakfast over."
"Alright," Ling Rou replied.
Then, Lin Fan slowly got up and walked out. He first sent a reservation message to the Michelin restaurant.
After washing up and sitting on the sofa, the phone in his pocket rang.
"Mr. Lin, am I disturbing your rest?" Wang Fengyi, the general manager of the Imperial Hotel, spoke through the phone.
"No, I've been awake for a while," Lin Fan said.
Wang Fengyi heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Yesterday's concert cost a total of 149 million yuan. I've already sent the details to your WeChat… In addition, there's still 351 million left from the 500 million you gave me. Shall I return it directly to your Merchant Bank account?"
267 15,721 Red Packets; A Great Harvest!
Back then, after Lin Fan agreed to help Ling Rou organize a concert, he immediately contacted Wang Fengyi.
Lin Fan explained the rough requirements and transferred 500 million yuan.
In Lin Fan's mind… Wang Fengyi was able to manage the Imperial Hotel in an orderly manner, his ability should be pretty good.
From the results, Wang Fengyi did not disappoint Lin Fan's trust.
…
!
When Wang Fengyi received 500 million yuan, he was a little stunned.
As the general manager of the Imperial Hotel, he had made friends with big shots from all walks of life. It could be said that he had a certain understanding of concerts.
Generally speaking, a few million yuan would be enough.
In the end, Lin Fan gave him 500 million!
500 million!
Was Lin Fan not afraid that he would run away with the money?
After being stunned for a while…
Wang Fengyi used all his connections to order the best audio equipment, display screens, clothes, and so on.
The reason why the final price was different from what many netizens had guessed was that the ten Rolls-Royce and the MD902 helicopter all belonged to Lin Fan. No money was spent on them!
Lin Fan curled his lips and said, "You only used that much?"
Wang Fengyi's mouth twitched slightly.
That was 149 million yuan!
Was that a little?
This… His poverty had limited his imagination!
Lin Fan continued, "Alright, just send it to my Merchant Bank account."
Just as he hung up the phone, a crisp notification sounded in Lin Fan's mind.
[Level 7 reward: 100 yuan for every breath; 100 yuan for every second of sleep, and 100 yuan for every step taken. Rewards are distributed at 12 a.m. daily.]
At level 6, he could earn about 3.5 million yuan per day.
Now, the reward was doubled!
In other words, he could earn about 7 million yuan a day.
Even though Lin Fan did not lack money now, when he saw the system that had not been upgraded for a long time being upgraded again, he could not help but smile.
[Upgrade cost: 69.8 million/500 million (not including gifts and gambling. In addition, all items obtained from the system are prohibited from being traded.]
Lin Fan was in a good mood. He slowly placed his attention on the silver packets and muttered in his heart, 'I received a total of 10 silver packets from this mission. Let's see what I can get.'
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 500,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 200,000 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Haoting Building.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 100,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Xin Mei Entertainment.]
With ten silver packets, Lin Fan received a total of 2.7 million yuan, a luxury building, and Xin Mei Entertainment.
Seeing this…
Lin Fan could not help but reveal a strange look.
2.7 million yuan was nothing to worry about.
Haoting Building was a newly built high-end office building. When Lin Fan was playing with his phone, he accidentally saw a piece of news. It seemed that this building was located by the river and had a total investment of five billion yuan.
It had just been built… but it became his?
In addition, he also got Xin Mei Entertainment?
Even though Lin Fan did not know much about the entertainment industry, the name Xin Mei Entertainment would often appear at the beginning of movies and TV shows.
Obviously, Xin Mei Entertainment had a certain level of strength.
In other words, he helped Ling Rou hold a concert and then obtained a large entertainment company?
Lin Fan rubbed his nose and muttered, "Looks like my luck today is pretty good?"
Hence, he turned his gaze to the check-in system.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received a double shares coupon.]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
Doubling shares was definitely a good thing!
Not long ago, after he used it on Penguin Group, he directly increased his shares from 5% to 10%, causing Lin Fan's assets to instantly increase by 250 billion yuan!
Now that he had obtained another one, if he continued to use it on Penguin Group… Then, Lin Fan's shares in Penguin Group would reach 20%! His assets would increase by 500 billion yuan!
However, Lin Fan did not immediately use the double shares coupon. Instead, he thought about it for a while before making a decision.
[Ding! Do you want to use the double shares coupon for Little Tanuki Group?]
"Yes!]
[Ding! Successfully used. You now own 10% of the shares of Little Tanuki.]
Using the double shares coupon on Penguin Group could yield more benefits, but Lin Fan's goal was to take back most of the shares of Penguin Group and Little Tanuki Group that were in the hands of foreigners.
Thus, there was no need to care about temporary gains and losses.
Last time, he chose Penguin Group. This time, he chose Little Tanuki Group. This way, he would not be biased.
Little Tanuki's market value was five trillion yuan, and now he had an additional 5% shares.
Hence, Lin Fan's assets increased by another 250 billion!
Lin Fan rubbed his nose and smiled, "Looks like…Today's luck is indeed not bad."
Then, he turned his attention to his phone.
At this moment, there were 15,712 unclaimed red packets on the screen.
Among them, 14,900 red packets were earned from spending 149 million yuan on this concert.
The rest were the millions that he spent in the past.
In the past, the reason why he did not open the packets was that he wanted to collect 1,000 of them and open them together.
Now, he had gathered 15,712 of them!
This was the first time he had so many red packets.
Lin Fan thought that his luck was pretty good today. Without any hesitation, he chose to open all of them.
[Ding! Congratulations, you have received 3 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 5 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained a land certificate.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 19,999 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained the double skill card.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received a skill level upgrade card.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained a land certificate.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained a one yuan critical hit card.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Expert-Level Dancing Technique.]
…
These 15,721 red packets gave Lin Fan a total of 2,320,811 yuan. Lin Fan acted as if he did not see this amount of money and ignored it.
His gaze first fell on the land certificate.
[Land certificate: After use, you can obtain land within 10,000 square meters and the ownership of all the buildings on it. More land means more wealth, and at the same time, it'll show more charm.]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan's eyes lit up.
One had to know that the total area of a typical residential area was only about 5,000 square meters.
10,000 square meters meant that he could own two residential areas?
If it was some office buildings that were closer to each other, he could probably own several of them, right?
Land certificates were definitely a rare treasure!
As for himself… he had just obtained two land certificates!
Even Lin Fan could not help but smile.
268 Upgrade the Eyes of Truth; Join Them!
Then, Lin Fan's gaze landed on the double skill card and the skill level upgrade card.
[Double skill card: You can double the ability of a certain skill for an hour. You'll possess more powerful skills and display more charm.]
[Skill level upgrade card: You can upgrade a skill level. Mastering even more profound skills will make you more fascinating.]
Lin Fan was very familiar with these two cards.
It was because he had used them before.
!
Even before Lin Fan opened the 15,721 red packets, he already had two double skill cards and one skill level upgrade card.
The double skill card had a time limit, so Lin Fan had not used it yet.
As for the skill level upgrade card, he only had one for the time being. He wanted to save it for when he needed it and be more selective with the skill he chose so as to be prepared.
Now, he could use one of them.
Hence, Lin Fan turned his attention back to the system.
[Skills: Professional Driving Skills, Charming Aura (5% chance of triggering love at first sight, unforgettable memory), Violent Aesthetics, Drinking Gentleman, Professor-Level Mathematics Experience, Eyes of Truth…]
After some consideration, Lin Fan locked onto the Eyes of Truth.
[Do you want to upgrade the level of Eyes of Truth?]
"Yes!"
[Ding! Upgrade successful! Congratulations, you've obtained the Eyes of True Sight.]
[Eyes of True Sight: Possesses all the abilities of the Eyes of Truth. In addition, you can see the specific origin of the object. Seeing the origin of an object lets you grasp things that ordinary people don't know. You get to display amazing charm.]
Eyes of True Sight?
See the origin of the object?
Lin Fan could not help but feel puzzled. He used the Eyes of True Sight on the marble table in front of him.
In an instant, he saw a slab of marble getting discovered, processed, polished, and carved…The entire process was like a movie scene, appearing very clearly in Lin Fan's mind.
Seeing this…
Even Lin Fan could not help but reveal a look of shock.
Then, he used the Eyes of True Sight on the cup on the table, and then the clock on the wall…
This feeling… It was as if these things were all personally made by Lin Fan. It was incomparably magical.
Lin Fan could not help but praise, "This skill level upgrade card is pretty good!"
Then, his gaze fell on Expert-Level Dancing Technique.
[Expert-Level Dancing Technique: Master all kinds of dancing techniques. You can be all-powerful on the stage and show off your charm.]
Dance?
Lin Fan nodded his head in satisfaction.
"One yuan critical hit card: After spending one yuan, you'll receive a reward of 100 million yuan.]
Lin Fan only glanced at it casually and did not take it to heart.
All in all…
This concert allowed Lin Fan to obtain 5% of the shares of Little Tanuki Group, a high-end office building worth five billion, a large entertainment company, two land certificates for a plot of land up to 10,000 square meters, Expert-Level Dancing Technique, and a one yuan critical hit card…
At the same time, it raised the system's level to level 7. Furthermore, Lin Fan's Eyes of Truth became the Eyes of True Sight.
On the other hand, Lin Fan had only spent 149 million yuan to organize this concert!
This was definitely a great harvest!
At this moment, a crisp bell rang outside.
A man in a white shirt was standing outside the door with high-end lunch boxes in his hand.
Seeing this…
Lin Fan opened the door.
"Sir, this is the breakfast you ordered," the man said respectfully."
"Alright," Lin Fan replied.
The man bowed slightly and said, "Enjoy your meal."
Whether it was his tone or his service attitude, they were all very good.
Ling Rou seemed to have heard the noise outside. She dragged her tired body and slowly walked out.
Lin Fan said, "You're up? Since breakfast has arrived, let's eat together."
"Alright…" Ling Rou replied.
Then, she and Lin Fan sat down at the dining table and opened the high-end lunch boxes.
When she saw the delicious food in the lunch box, Ling Rou was slightly stunned.
Sea urchin egg, big scallops, bird's nest porridge, seafood porridge, truffle egg tart, caviar cake, and beef…
Ling Rou could not help but say, "This… How much is this breakfast?"
"About 30,000," Lin Fan replied casually.
More than 30,000 yuan… for breakfast?
Even though Ling Rou already knew that Lin Fan was rich, she could not help but widen her eyes.
One had to know…
Her monthly food expenses were only 3,000 yuan.
In other words, today's breakfast… was almost a year's worth of food?
Lin Fan did not care about Ling Rou's surprise. He personally scooped a bowl of bird's nest porridge and handed it to Ling Rou, "You're still a little weak. Drink something light to warm yourself up first…"
"Alright… Alright," Ling Rou stuttered.
When she drank the first mouthful of porridge, Ling Rou could not help but exclaim, "It's delicious!"
Lin Fan smiled. "If you like it, then have more."
"Yes, yes!" Ling Rou said.
This breakfast was definitely the most Ling Rou had ever eaten.
One had to know…
Lin Fan had ordered enough for three men.
In the end, everything was finished.
Ling Rou named it Operation Disc.
The lunch boxes were empty, and Ling Rou's stomach became round.
At this moment, Ling Rou's phone rang again.
"Hello, Ms. Ling. I'm Li Xiaofei, the general manager of Dafang Entertainment." A middle-aged woman's voice came from the phone.
Ling Rou had already answered several similar calls.
It could be said that she already had some experience.
When she answered the call, she was no longer as nervous as before. She seemed much more relaxed and indifferent.
"Hello, Manager Li," Ling Rou said.
"Dafang Entertainment is very optimistic about you, Ms. Ling…" Li Xiaofei said.
Like the representatives of the previous companies, she listed out a lot of conditions.
"Thank you for your offer, but I'd like to think about this matter carefully."
Li Xiaofei said, "Yes, this really needs to be considered… However, Ms. Ling, Dafang Entertainment can definitely give you the best resources…"
The two of them chatted for a while before hanging up.
Ling Rou opened her phone's reminder and slowly wrote down the name of Dafang Entertainment as well as the general remuneration and relevant contacts.
Then, Ling Rou looked at the names of the companies and their benefits. She was lost in thought. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦
"You haven't decided which company to choose yet?" Lin Fan asked.
Ling Rou shook her head and said, "No…"
"What do you think of Xin Mei Entertainment?" Lin Fan asked.
"Xin Mei Entertainment is one of the top three entertainment companies in Hua Nation! Its celebrities consist of A-list movie stars and singers who occupy almost a quarter of Hua Nation's market. They're also the company I want to work for the most, but they didn't call me…" Ling Rou said helplessly.
Lin Fan said, "Then join them."
"Huh?"
269 Invitation; Verification Completed!
Ling Rou was puzzled by Lin Fan's words.
Did she not just say that Xin Mei Entertainment did not call her?
Could it be that Lin Fan knew someone from Xin Mei Entertainment?
It seemed like… it was really possible.
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone on the table rang.
Lin Fan looked at the caller ID. It was an unknown number.
He did not hesitate to answer the call.
"Hello?" Lin Fan said.
"Hello… Is this Mr. Lin?" A respectful voice sounded from the phone.
Lin Fan said, "It's me. And you are?"
"Hello, Mr. Lin. I'm Wang Haohua, the chairman of Xin Mei Entertainment." The voice on the phone became even more respectful.
"Oh, Chairman Dong, what's the matter?" Lin Fan asked.
"I just found out that you acquired Xin Mei Entertainment today…" Wang Haohua said carefully. "Do you think we need to hold a meeting between the higher-ups and the artistes? You could guide the company's future development…"
Back then, the general manager of Imperial Hotel, the chairman of the Yinshan Group, the chairman of Xiao Wu Wholesale City, and the others had all sent similar invitations to Lin Fan.
However, Lin Fan rejected all of them.
He had no interest in such meetings.
This time, there was no surprise.
"There's no need. The company will continue to develop as usual. I won't be hands-on regarding the management," Lin Fan said calmly.
When Wang Haohua heard this, he was overjoyed.
He had his own plans for the future development of Xin Mei Entertainment.
If the new boss needed to make adjustments, it would definitely not be a good thing.
Wang Haohua's tone did not change, but his attitude became more respectful.
"Alright…"
Wang Haohua's heart skipped a beat.
He finally understood… why the publicity for the concert at Jiangbei City Stadium was so intense.
He understood why it was done so lavishly.
All of this… It was all because of his new boss, Lin Fan!
He got Penguin Group, Little Tanuki Group, and Alphabet Group to vigorously promote it…
He spent hundreds of millions on the concert venue…
This boss of his was much more powerful than he had imagined!
After a while, Wang Haohua said, "I understand… I'll definitely handle this to your satisfaction."
"Alright, that's it," Lin Fan said.
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
At this moment, Ling Rou, who was sitting beside him, was completely stunned.
It was because she had heard everything that was said over the phone.
She was not eavesdropping on purpose.
It was just that she was sitting too close to Lin Fan. In addition, there was no other sound in the entire villa. Under such circumstances, it was difficult for her not to hear him.
Lin Fan acquired Xin Mei Entertainment today?!
First, he helped her hold a concert at all costs.
Then, in order to help her enter the entertainment industry, he directly acquired one of the top three entertainment companies in Hua Nation…
Ling Rou looked at Lin Fan who was sitting in front of her. Her beautiful eyes started to well up with tears as a teardrop rolled down her face.
These were tears of gratitude and happiness!
No one had ever treated her so well in her life.
Lin Fan wiped her tears away and asked, "Why are you crying?"
Ling Rou did not say anything. She used the most primitive and instinctive way to answer Lin Fan. 𝙗𝙚𝙙𝒏𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝙣𝒆𝙩
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
…
About two hours later, Lin Fan and Ling Rou slowly separated.
At this moment, Ling Rou's phone rang again.
Ling Rou adjusted her clothes and answered the call.
"Hello, is this Ms. Ling Rou?" A familiar voice came from the phone.
Ling Rou replied, "Yes, this is Ling Rou… May I ask who you are?"
The voice on the phone became even more respectful.
"Hello, Ms. Ling! I'm Wang Haohua, the chairman of Xin Mei Entertainment. I had a call with Mr. Lin earlier…
"We've prepared the best manager, makeup artist, and fashion designer for you. We've also allocated roles in many movies, television shows, and programs for you…
"When will you be free to come to the company to make the arrangements?"
Ling Rou finally understood why the voice sounded familiar.
He was the chairman of Xin Mei Entertainment!
A manager, a makeup artist, a fashion designer, as well as roles in movies, TV shows, and programs… She could have her pick!
What kind of treatment was this?!
Ling Rou suppressed the excitement in her heart and said, "I can come over anytime!"
Wang Haohua thought for a moment and said, "Then… Is tomorrow okay with you?"
"Of course!" Ling Rou said.
As soon as she hung up, Ling Rou's phone rang again.
This time, it was her mother.
Even though Ling Rou previously worked in the bar every day, her family was still worried about her.
In fact, her family was very strict.
Her parents had been worried for the entire night since she did not go home last night.
Therefore, when she received the call, Ling Rou chose to answer it and go home.
Regarding this…
Lin Fan also expressed his support.
After the two of them were intimate for a while, Lin Fan drove the Mercedes-Benz and brought Ling Rou back.
Lin Fan did not stay outside for long. He returned to the Coiling Dragon Villa and lay on the soft sofa, playing with his phone.
…
Princeton University, America.
These days, Jeffrey had given up on all activities and classes… He spent almost the entire time in the Institute for Advanced Study, carefully checking the complex Hail Conjecture.
It was not until today that he finally completed the thesis and sent the results to Annual Mathematics.
If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely be exhausted after working hard for a long time.
However, Jeffrey's face was filled with excitement.
"Hey! Professor Jeffrey, why haven't I seen you for days?" Professor Adivan said.
"Because I'm in the midst of witnessing something big!" Jeffrey said.
"Something big?" Adivan was puzzled.
"Hail conjecture! Someone has solved the Hail Conjecture!" Jeffrey said excitedly.
"What? Who? They came up with the answer process?" Adivan said anxiously.
"Hey, don't get so worked up, my friend!" Jeffrey laughed. "I'm not too sure who it is. As for the content… You can wait for the next issue of Annual Mathematics."
Even though there was a detailed explanation process in his email, it would be against the rules if he showed it to others.
Of course, more importantly, if he were to show it to Adivan, how could he act all mysterious afterward?
270 President Ma's Call; Shopping!
Naturally, Lin Fan did not know that the Hail Conjecture that he had solved had passed the verification process and was about to be published in Annual Mathematics.
Of course, even if he knew, he would not be surprised.
This was the answer given by the system. How could it be wrong?
As for… Annual Mathematics?
Lin Fan did not care at all.
!
A day of leisure passed in the blink of an eye.
…
The next day, Lin Fan did not order any food.
Instead, he drove the Mercedes-Benz to a restaurant a few kilometers away.
After all, sometimes lying down was also very tiring.
Lin Fan had just eaten his fill when the phone in his pocket rang.
He looked at the caller ID and saw that it was the chairman of Little Tanuki Group, President Ma.
Hence, Lin Fan did not hesitate and answered the call.
"Good morning, Mr. Lin!" President Ma laughed heartily.
"Good morning, President Ma.
"Why did you call me today, President Ma?" he asked after a pause.
President Ma laughed. "Can't I call you for no reason?"
Then, he added, "However, I did call you this time because I have something to say…
"Mr. Lin, you should know that our country is now vigorously developing the central region."
"Jiangbei is the central part of Hua Nation and the center of development in the future. Of course, we have to keep up with the pace of the country…
"So, other than establishing a branch in Jiangbei two years ago, we're also preparing to invest and acquire a group of companies…
"Recently, the person in charge of our branch in Jiangbei told me that he has inspected a group of companies with more potential for development. He asked me to go over and decide if we need to invest or acquire them.
"I rushed to Jiangbei early this morning for this matter…
It had to be said that Da Ma was indeed the capable person who founded Little Tanuki Group.
When he spoke, he was full of tricks.
From the general direction of the country's development, the topic of conversation gradually became about giving opinions and eating.
In reality? 𝑏𝑒𝘥𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝑛𝘦𝑡
Yesterday, President Ma suddenly found out that Lin Fan had bought another 5% of Little Tanuki's shares.
Hence, Lin Fan's total of 10% of Little Tanuki's shares made him a major shareholder that far surpassed the CEO's ranking!
Da Ma was not worried… He just did not know why Lin Fan would increase his shares, so he rushed to Jiangbei early in the morning.
His purpose… He just wanted to meet Lin Fan and have a chat with him.
Regarding this…
Lin Fan understood everything clearly. However, having a meal was not a problem. "Sure."
Da Ma laughed heartily and said, "Haha! Alright, then it's a deal!"
The two of them chatted for a while more before hanging up.
When Lin Fan walked out of the restaurant, a graceful figure appeared in front of him.
"Han Tian!" Lin Fan shouted.
Han Tian slowly turned around, and her pretty face immediately revealed a hint of surprise. She called out, "Lin Fan!"
Today, Han Tian was wearing a dress with floral patterns. Her long black hair hung down naturally like a waterfall, and it swayed in the wind. Her entire body was filled with a faint fragrance… It was extremely charming.
Lin Fan asked, "What are your plans today?"
"I'm not going to work today. I'm going shopping," Han Tian said.
Shopping?
Lin Fan could not help but recall that he had only casually given her two Gucci bags…
After that, he did not give her anything else.
In addition, the time he spent with her was also the least.
Thus, Lin Fan said, "Then I'll go shopping with you."
"Really?"
Han Tian's beautiful eyes instantly became crescent-shaped, and there was a faint starlight shining in them. She was extremely beautiful.
Lin Fan smiled. "Of course it's true. Let's go shopping!"
Then, Lin Fan drove his Mercedes Benz to the shopping mall with Han Tian.
They first walked into Chanel.
"Welcome to Chanel." The dignified female shop assistant quickly came up to them and said, "May I know how I can help you?"
"I'm here to help my girlfriend buy some clothes. Do you have any recommendations?"
The shop assistant secretly sized up Han Tian.
Then, she praised, "Your girlfriend is so beautiful! I rarely see a woman with such fair skin and such a good figure like her!"
It had to be said that the shop assistant's ability was not bad.
With just a few simple words, the relationship between the few of them had unknowingly become closer.
"Thank you for your compliment." Han Tian blushed.
"How is this a compliment? This is the truth," the shop assistant said.
Then, she pointed at a few clothes not far away and said, "I personally think that these two white dresses, as well as those pink and light-colored clothes, are more suitable for you…"
As she spoke, she took out the two white dresses and said, "Moreover, these clothes are all 100% pure cotton. They'll be very comfortable to wear."
When Han Tian changed into the clothes recommended by the shop assistant, her already perfect figure became even more prominent.
"Do you like it?" asked Lin Fan. "Is it comfortable to wear?"
Han Tian nodded.
Then, Lin Fan took the two pieces of clothes that he had picked out and said, "Try these two."
"Alright," Han Tian replied.
After a while, Han Tian walked out wearing the clothes that Lin Fan had picked out.
Han Tian's figure was simply too good. Every piece of clothing she wore made people's eyes light up.
Lin Fan seemed to have realized this and asked, "Do you want to try on other clothes?"
"No need," Han Tian said.
Lin Fan said, "Alright then. Wrap up these clothes."
When the shop assistant standing at the side heard this, she was excited and quickly asked, "Do you wish to purchase all the clothes here?"
One had to know…
This was a Chanel store. Three pieces of clothing would easily cost tens of thousands of dollars.
To her, it was a considerable achievement.
Lin Fan shook his head, "No… Including the clothes you pointed out just now, there should be a total of eight pieces."
The shop assistant was obviously stunned. She could not help but ask, "You… Are you sure?"
"Is there a problem?" Lin Fan asked.
"No problem at all."
The shop assistant was very agile. She quickly folded all eight pieces of clothing and said, "It's a total of 137,899 yuan."
Beep!
Lin Fan took out his bank card and placed it on the machine. The bill appeared.
At the same time, 13 red packets appeared on Lin Fan's phone.
Seeing this…
The shop assistant's heart raced. She then bent down and said, "Thank you, and please come again."
After Lin Fan and Han Tian had left, the shop assistant mumbled, "What a godly tycoon."
Immediately after, she revealed a regretful expression and said, "If I had known… I would've pointed at a few more clothes just now."
271 Cartier; Galaxy!
After Lin Fan and Han Tian left Chanel, they walked into the bright and fashionable Cartier jewelry store.
"Welcome to Cartier." The salesperson standing at the door smiled and asked, "May I help you?"
Lin Fan said straightforwardly, "I want to buy some earrings, necklaces, and bracelets for my girlfriend. I want all of these."
The smile on the salesperson's face widened.
She secretly sized up Han Tian's facial features and figure before praising, "Your girlfriend is so beautiful!"
She paused for a moment before continuing, "We received a very beautiful set of jewelry two days ago. It's called Galaxy.
"Galaxy was designed by a famous designer from Country F, Mr. Huntereb. The entire set includes earrings, a bracelet, and a necklace… Not long ago, Mr. Hunter won a grand prize at the International Jewelry Convention because of Galaxy.
"Currently… In all of Hua Nation, only our shop has Galaxy. It can be said to be a unique set of jewelry.
"Do you want to go to the VIP room with me?"
For cheap jewelry worth thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, Cartier would put them on the counter outside for people to choose and buy.
If one wanted to buy expensive jewelry that was worth millions or even tens of millions, one would have to go to the VIP room to buy it.
Firstly, it could highlight the mystery and preciousness of the jewelry, thus providing a better experience for the customers.
Secondly, it could also protect the safety of the jewelry.
Under normal circumstances, the sales assistants would not easily let customers go to the VIP room. Some stores even had to verify the customers' capital.
However, Lin Fan was holding eight bags of Chanel clothes.
Of course…
If it was just because of that, the sales assistant would not have let the customer go to the VIP room directly, nor would she have recommended Galaxy.
The most important reason was that the salesperson accidentally saw the watch on Lin Fan's wrist. It was a Vachacheron Constantin Tour de l'Ile!
The most important ability of a salesperson of a high-end brand was to have a pair of eyes that could easily recognize all kinds of luxury goods.
Obviously, this salesperson was such a person!
She recognized the watch at a glance. Even though she was faced with countless luxury goods every day, her heart could not help but jump.
Vacheron Constantin Tour de l'Ile was a luxury watch worth tens of millions!
This was definitely a very distinguished and high-quality customer!
Lin Fan did not hesitate and replied, "Alright."
Then, under the guidance of the sales assistant, Lin Fan and Han Tian walked to the VIP room inside.
The place was very spacious and bright. The entire place was decorated in a European style. The air was filled with a faint fragrance, giving people the feeling of being in a European castle. It was filled with the aura of nobility.
After the employee invited Lin Fan and Han Tian to sit down, she brought over a set of exquisite refreshments.
Then, she carried a diamond-studded sheepskin box and walked over carefully.
Even the box exuded a luxurious aura that filled people with anticipation.
When she arrived in front of Lin Fan and Han Tian, she first put on a pair of white gloves before slowly opening the diamond-studded sheepskin box.
The crescent-shaped earrings, the ripple-like bracelet, the crown-like necklace… All of them appeared in front of Lin Fan and Han Tian.
Under the illumination of the lights, the three pieces of jewelry were all emitting a dazzling light. They were gorgeous and resplendent like a flowing galaxy. They were very beautiful!
This was simply… a box of treasures!
Although the sales assistant had seen Galaxy several times, she would still feel a little surprised each time.
Now that she saw it again, she could not help but be fascinated.
As a result, she did not give a more detailed introduction at the first moment.
After a while, the salesperson finally calmed down and said in a yearning tone, "The earrings in this set of Galaxy consist of two-carat diamonds and eight small diamonds. They represent the sun, the moon, and the eight planets, which is our entire solar system…
"The bracelet is made of platinum and 365 diamonds, representing the edge of the Milky Way.
"The necklace is made of ruby and countless diamonds. It represents the center of the galaxy and countless stars…"
Lin Fan looked at Han Tian, who was already attracted by Galaxy. He said, "Alright, I'll buy it."
"Huh?"
The sales assistant was stunned for a moment. She seemed to be in disbelief. She gently moved her throat and said, "You… What do you mean?"
"I'll pay by card." Lin Fan took out his bank card.
Buy!
He really wanted to buy it!
The salesperson almost jumped up in joy.
However, she forced herself to calm down and reminded him, "Sir, the price of Galaxy is 4,888,888 yuan…
"As it's a new product, there's no discount for the time being. However, I can help you apply for a small gift."
Lin Fan's expression did not change at all. He nodded casually and said, "Alright."
The salesperson swallowed her saliva and calmed herself down a little. She turned around and brought over the POS machine.
Beep!
After the soft sound of the machine, a receipt for 4,888,888 yuan appeared.
For every 10,000 yuan spent, he would receive a red packet.
At the same time, 488 red packets appeared in Lin Fan's phone.
It was this soft sound that pulled Han Tian back to reality.
Lin Fan picked up the earrings, bracelet, and necklace to help Han Tian put them on.
Han Tian looked at her reflection in the mirror, which was as bright as the stars. Her beautiful eyes could not help but become moist.
She did not care that the salesperson was still beside her. She threw herself into Lin Fan's arms and said excitedly, "Lin Fan, thank you."
In fact, the salesperson was not in the mood to look at her at all.
It was because the salesperson was also very excited.
4,888,888 yuan worth of jewelry! She sold it directly!
How much commission could she get from this?
Lin Fan gently patted Han Tian's back and smiled, "Silly girl, what's there to thank between us? Moreover, this is just a small toy."
A small toy?
That was right!
To Lin Fan, an item worth over four million yuan was nothing.
One had to know that even if he only counted his income from breathing, sleeping, and walking, he could earn at least seven million yuan a day.
After a while, the two of them slowly separated.
The salesperson gradually came back to her senses. She pointed at some small items under 5,000 yuan on the counter and said, "You can choose something you like as a gift from our shop."
In the end, Han Tian picked up a cute hair clip.
After Lin Fan and Han Tian left Cartier, a few salespeople quickly surrounded the salesperson from earlier.
"Xiao Juan, you're amazing!"
"Xiao Juan, congratulations on selling Galaxy!" b𝚎dn𝚘v𝚎𝚕.𝚘𝚛𝚐
"You must treat us."
"That's right!"
…
Lin Fan naturally did not care about the bustling Cartier store.
He accompanied Han Tian to buy two pairs of shoes and some skincare products…
He spent a total of 5,688,993 yuan on this trip.
Correspondingly, Lin Fan received 568 red packets.
272 Meeting an Acquaintance
When Han Tian went to the washroom, Lin Fan was bored and chose to open all 568 red packets.
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 1,999 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Happy World Amusement Park.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained a one yuan critical hit card.]
…
Out of the 568 red packets, Lin Fan received a total of 432,113 yuan, Happy World Amusement Park, and a one yuan critical hit card.
Seeing this…
Lin Fan could not help but reveal a strange look.
430,000 yuan was naturally not a big deal.
Happy World Amusement Park?
Was this not the largest amusement park in the central region that had been publicized for the past few years? It was claimed to have cost tens of billions to build.
Now… it was his?
The one yuan critical hit card allowed him to earn 100 million yuan by spending one yuan.
In other words, he had just bought so many things for Han Tian, and in the end, he earned this much money?
At this moment, Han Tian walked over with a face full of happiness.
She seemed to have noticed the change in Lin Fan's expression and asked, "What happened to you?"
Lin Fan cleared his throat and smiled, "I encountered something interesting."
Then, he looked at the watch on his wrist and said, "It's almost time for us to go to dinner. I might have to eat with some people later."
"Alright," Han Tian said.
Hence, Lin Fan drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class toward Imperial Hotel.
Lin Fan parked the car and walked to the entrance of the Imperial Hotel.
A man in a suit and leather shoes walked out and shouted in surprise, "Han Tian?"
"Wang Zihao?" Han Tian said.
Wang Zihao looked at Han Tian's beautiful face, and a hint of passion appeared on his face.
However, he quickly suppressed it and smiled. "Haha! Han Tian, it really is you! I didn't expect that we would meet here today! We haven't seen each other for a few years since we graduated from university, right?
"You haven't changed at all!
"Well no, you've become younger and more beautiful than before!"
"You're exaggerating," Han Tian said.
"How is it exaggerated? This is the truth!" Wang Zihao said seriously.
Wang Zihao seemed to have noticed Lin Fan standing at the side and asked, "Oh right, who is this?"
Lin Fan said, "I'm Han Tian's boyfriend, Lin Fan."
Wang Zihao's expression darkened slightly, and he said, "I didn't expect… the campus belle of our school to already have a boyfriend. By the way, where are you working now?"
"I'm studying at Jiangbei University," Lin Fan said.
When Wang Zihao heard this, a hint of contempt flashed across his face.
In the eyes of some ordinary people, university students were very impressive.
However, in Wang Zihao's eyes, university students were nothing.
"So, you're a student from Jiangbei University!" he said. Speaking of being a student, I couldn't help but think of the time when Han Tian managed the student council in school. 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝘮
"At that time, I was wondering why there was such a perfect person like Han Tian in this world. Not only was she beautiful, but she was also so capable!
"By the way, I started an internet company after graduation. I'm currently lacking a vice president. Han Tian, are you willing to work with me?"
Han Tian shook her head. "I'm sorry. I've been working in a real estate company since I graduated. I don't know anything about internet companies. I'm afraid I can't be your vice president."
"It doesn't matter. In fact, most of the things in my internet company are done by the contracting companies. We're just a shell," Wang Zihao said.
"As the vice president, you just need to assign tasks to the various companies. With your management skills back in university, this will definitely not be a problem!"
Then, he said to Lin Fan, "The jewelry on Han Tian's body should be from you, right? I know that you want to make Han Tian look beautiful and make her the most eye-catching woman in the crowd.
"But do you know that wearing all this glass jewelry won't make her beautiful at all? On the contrary, it'll only make her be seen as a joke.
"Only when she wears a one-carat diamond will she be amazing!"
Obviously, Wang Zihao thought that the necklace, bracelet, and earrings Han Tian was wearing were all made of glass.
It was no wonder that he thought so…
After all, Han Tian had just said that she worked in a real estate company.
How much money could she earn from working in a real estate company?
How could she afford diamond jewelry?
Lin Fan was just a student, so it was even more impossible for him to afford diamond jewelry. Even if he was a rich second-generation heir, it was still not okay!
Wang Zihao knew very well that the families of rich second-generation heirs were very strict. It was impossible for these heirs to have enough allowance to buy expensive jewelry all at once.
The answer was obvious.
Wang Zihao said again, "I'm sorry, maybe I was a little too direct. However, it's the truth. Without a career, how can love last? Lin Fan, you're a university student, so you should understand this.
"If you really like Han Tian and want her to be happy forever, I think you should persuade her to come to our company to be the vice president. After you graduate, you can also come to work in my company. In this way, I believe that you'll be able to make your love last!
"As for the scale and strength of my company, as well as your treatment… There's no need to doubt it. You might not know this, but I've just received an investment from Little Tanuki Group! In the future, even A-share listing will be possible! At that time, you'll all be shareholders of the company. You can achieve financial freedom and live happily ever after!"
Wang Zihao used the tone of an elder to talk about great principles.
He believed that Lin Fan would definitely do as he said and help persuade Han Tian to join his company.
It was because Wang Zihao had used similar methods to successfully have sex with several women.
In the end, even if he abandoned them, they never blamed him.
On the contrary, they often felt heartache and regret for certain things.
Even a meticulous woman was like that.
Moreover, Lin Fan was just an ordinary male university student.
At this moment…
Lin Fan's face was filled with a strange expression.
The jewelry that Han Tian was wearing now was being laughed at?
Only by wearing a one-carat diamond would a woman be able to impress others?
If he remembered correctly, never mind the necklace and bracelet… Han Tian's earrings were made with two-carat diamonds, right?
Her diamonds were being laughed at?
The little diamonds were also looked down on?
What kind of logic was this?
Also, he wanted both her and Han Tian to work in his company? They should not worry about the treatment?
Was he prepared to give her one million or five million a month?
However, even ten million was nothing!
His company received an investment from Little Tanuki?
He owned 10% of the shares of Little Tanuki Group and was also the second largest shareholder of Little Tanuki Group!
In other words, Lin Fan's company had invested in Wang Zihao's company?
273 Receive Him Personally; Cancel All Cooperation!
Wang Zihao saw that Lin Fan and Han Tian did not say anything and thought that they were considering his words. He could not help but laugh coldly in his heart.
He then continued, "My internet company is short of people. This is definitely a great opportunity for you. You don't have to think about it anymore."
At this moment, a noblewoman in a Chanel dress, who had about 80 points in appearance, suddenly exclaimed.
"Wow! Galaxy! This is Cartier's Galaxy, right? I just saw it in a magazine! I didn't expect to see the real thing so quickly. It's too beautiful!
"Excuse me, can you tell me where you bought it?" the lady continued.
!
"Of course!" Han Tian replied. "I bought it at the Cartier flagship store in Xinglong Shopping Mall, but they only had this set."
"Only one set?" the lady said disappointedly.
She then said, "I really like Galaxy. Can you sell it to me? How about five million?"
Clearly, this lady had a certain understanding of Galaxy.
Galaxy's price was 4,888,888 yuan, while the lady offered five million yuan.
Han Tian could almost make 110,000 yuan just by selling it!
If it was an ordinary person, they would probably agree immediately.
However, Han Tian shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, I also like Galaxy very much, so I won't consider selling it!"
When Wang Zihao heard the name Cartier, he felt that something was wrong. 𝙗𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝒎
When he heard the figure of five million, his heart thumped wildly.
What was going on?
Was the jewelry Han Tian was wearing not made of glass?
Why would others spend five million to buy it?
What was going on?
Wang Zihao opened his mouth as if he wanted to ask something.
At this moment, behind him… a somewhat familiar voice sounded.
"Mr. Lin, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry to have made you wait!"
Wang Zihao slowly turned around to look…
That was because he saw a group of big shots from Little Tanuki Group. They had just reviewed his company in the conference hall of the Imperial Hotel. Among them was the chairman of Little Tanuki Group, President Ma!
The voice just now came from President Ma!
At this moment, President Ma actually took the initiative to stretch out his right hand and tightly shake Lin Fan's hand!
This…
This…
What was going on?
That was President Ma!
Why did he shake hands with Lin Fan?
Moreover, from his tone, it seemed like he was here to pick Lin Fan up?
How was this possible?
Could it be that he was seeing things?
Or perhaps… was it an illusion?
However, Wang Zihao quickly realized that… this was not a hallucination, nor was it an illusion.
"I just arrived." Lin Fan pointed at Han Tian and said, "This is my girlfriend, Han Tian."
"Oh? Is this Sister-in-law? How beautiful! Brother Lin, you have good taste!" President Ma praised and extended his right hand to Han Tian.
Han Tian knew that they were going to have dinner with other people today.
However, she never expected it to be President Ma.
As a result, when she suddenly saw President Ma, she was stunned.
One had to know…
In the hearts of many managers and businessmen, President Ma was definitely a god-like existence.
At this moment, the 'god' had appeared in front of her!
He was even shaking hands with her?
After a while, Han Tian extended her right hand and shook President Ma's hand.
Then, Lin Fan and the manager of the Imperial Hotel stood at the entrance and chatted for a while.
At this moment, Lin Fan seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and said, "By the way, President Ma… Wang Zihao seems to be the boss of an internet company? Is our Little Tanuki Group going to invest in his company? But he just said that his company is an empty shell, and they contract out the work to third-party companies."
"What? Really?" President Ma said.
Lin Fan smiled. "That's not all. He even wanted my girlfriend to be his vice president."
President Ma raised his eyebrows, and his expression instantly became extremely ugly.
How smart was he? How could he not understand what Lin Fan meant?
This person called Wang Zihao had opened a shell company, and they had actually wanted to invest in him just now!
More importantly, he actually had improper thoughts about Lin Fan's girlfriend!
What a… bastard!
One had to know…
The reason why President Ma came to Jiangbei was to build a better relationship with Lin Fan.
Now, something like this had happened.
If this ruined Lin Fan's good mood…
In fact, it might even cause some unnecessary conflicts. Wang Zihao really deserved to die!
President Ma said to his assistant standing behind him, "Cancel all cooperation and investments with this Wang Zihao! In addition, issue a notice that Wang Zihao's character is extremely bad. From today onward, anyone who has business dealings with him will no longer be able to cooperate with us!"
Little Tanuki Group was canceling all cooperation and investments with him?!
Heavens!
How much effort had he put in to get Little Tanuki Group to invest in his company?
Now, there was nothing left?
In addition, Little Tanuki Group was going to inform the outside world that it would not cooperate with anyone who had business dealings with them.
Was this not equivalent to being completely banned by Little Tanuki Group?
This…
This…
Wang Zihao only felt his vision turn black…
His legs went weak as he knelt on the ground. He first said to President Ma, "President Ma, I beg you, please don't ban me."
However, President Ma completely ignored his words.
Then, Wang Zihao seemed to have thought of something.
He turned around and kowtowed to Lin Fan while crying, "Lin… Mr. Lin, I'm sorry. It was my fault just now. I shouldn't have said anything. On the account that Han Tian and I were university classmates, please forgive me… I'm sorry, I'm sorry…"
Lin Fan said calmly, "What are you sorry for?"
Then, he held Han Tian's slender hand and said, "President Ma, didn't you say you wanted to treat me to a meal? I'm starving here."
"Yes, yes, yes! Let's eat! Mr. Lin, Ms. Han, please come in!" President Ma was like a waiter. He personally stretched out his hand and led Lin Fan and Han Tian inside.
This scene…
Everyone's hearts started to race as they started to guess Lin Fan's identity.
One had to know… President Ma was a man who had become the richest man in the country several times!
He actually treated a young man so politely!
The group of senior executives of Little Tanuki Group standing behind President Ma could not help but bow slightly towards Lin Fan. They followed closely behind him like his lackeys.
After Lin Fan, Han Tian, President Ma, and the senior executives of Little Tanuki Group left, Wang Zihao collapsed to the ground dejectedly and said in a hoarse voice, "He… Who is he?"
274 Reason; Shocking!
In VIP Hall 6 on the 66th floor of the Imperial Hotel, a huge dining table was filled with sumptuous dishes.
At President Ma's request
Lin Fan sat on the main seat, Han Tian sat on the left, and President Ma sat on the right.
The other executives sat around the table.
"Today, I'm very happy to be able to have dinner with Mr. Lin and Ms. Han. I'd like to propose a toast to the two of you!"
After a glass of wine, the atmosphere in the private room immediately became lively.
In people's imagination, a wealthy person like President Ma should have an imposing aura that made people afraid to approach him.
However
President Ma would occasionally put his arm around Lin Fan's shoulder and laugh heartily at other times.
His appearance was no different from that of an ordinary commoner. He was very approachable.
After downing a few glasses of wine, President Ma's pupils shifted, and he finally spoke of the true purpose of this trip.
"Mr. Lin, thank you very much for your trust and recognition of our Little Tanuki Group. A few days ago, you bought another 5% of our shares. Now… you're the biggest shareholder of our Little Tanuki Group in Hua Nation. I wonder if you have any instructions?"
As soon as he said this
The private room, which was originally a little lively, immediately quieted down.
The senior executives of Little Tanuki Group finally understood why Da Ma was so polite to Lin Fan.
He bought an extra 5% of Little Tanuki's shares!
He was the largest shareholder of Little Tanuki Group in Hua Nation!
They were very clear about the market value of Little Tanuki Group. To achieve this step, how much money was needed?
This young man in front of them was… He was actually so terrifying?
Han Tian was also slightly stunned when she heard his words.
She knew that Lin Fan was rich, but she did not expect him to be this rich.
…
Lin Fan had already expected President Ma's words. He could not help but laugh, "I do approve of Little Tanuki Group, but at the same time, I'm also a person who hates being troubled.
"So, it'll still be the same as before. I'll only take the dividends, and I don't care about the matters of Little Tanuki Group. President Ma, I believe that you'll definitely be able to make Little Tanuki better and better.'
Da Ma laughed heartily when he heard that. He had achieved his goal this time!
Instantly, the atmosphere in the private room became even hotter.
The meal lasted until close to three o'clock before it slowly ended.
President Ma and Little Tanuki Group's higher-ups had been to many drinking parties, and it could be said that they were all huge drinkers.
However, when the banquet ended, everyone was lying on the table.
Lin Fan had Drinking Gentleman, so he would not get drunk even after a thousand glasses. He was fine.
However, Han Tian still insisted on helping him into the car and heading home.
Perhaps it was because there was no one at home, it was a little boring.
Looking at Lin Fan's handsome face, Han Tian's pretty face gradually blushed.
Then, she could not help but move closer to Lin Fan.

? (?)
…
It was as if a spring breeze had suddenly come, and thousands of pear trees had bloomed.
Thus, the entire building began to shake from the afternoon until the next morning.
Lin Fan accompanied Han Tian for breakfast before driving the Mercedes-Benz G-Class toward Jiangbei University.
When he walked into Jiangbei University, he was greeted by a series of bright banners.
[Warm congratulations to our school's Lin Fan for solving the Hail Conjecture!]
[Warm congratulations on Lin Fan's thesis being published in Annual Mathematics!]
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. After a while, he remembered that he had indeed solved the Hail Conjecture last week.
Then, he asked Teacher Tiantian to publish it under her name.
It seemed that Teacher Tiantian published it under his name.
Regarding this
Lin Fan did not mind and walked straight toward the classroom.
At this moment, the classroom was already filled with discussions.
"Did you see that? Brother Lin Fan's thesis was published in Annual Mathematics!"
"Is the main point about Annual Mathematics? The main point is the Hail Conjecture! Oh my God, Brother Lin Fan has solved another world problem!"
"Just how on earth did Brother Lin Fan get so smart?"
…
When Lin Fan walked into the classroom, all the noise suddenly disappeared.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Fan.
Seeing this
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment and thought, 'Did I enter the wrong classroom?'
Then, he could not help but look back at the classroom door.
He was at the right place!
At this moment, Song Yi, who was sitting in the back row, stood up and waved at Lin Fan, "Brother Lin Fan, over here!"
Lin Fan heard the voice and walked over slowly.
Then, Song Yi could not help but ask, "Brother Lin Fan, you solved the Hail Conjecture?"
"Yes, I did," Lin Fan replied casually.
As soon as he said this, the classroom immediately became extremely noisy again.
"As expected of Brother Lin Fan!"
"Brother Lin Fan is awesome!"
"Long live Brother Lin Fan!"
In fact…
The students had indeed wondered if the 'Lin Fan' on the school banner was the Lin Fan in their class.
However, doubts were just that, after all.
Now that Lin Fan had personally admitted it, how could they not be excited?!
As for Lin Fan, his expression remained the same. There was no change at all.
He could not help but yawn.
"Brother Lin Fan, when did you start researching the Hail Conjecture?" Ma Zhong asked.
"Last week," Lin Fan said.
Last week?
Ma Zhong opened his mouth, not knowing how to answer.
He researched it last week and solved it this week?
That was an unsolved problem in the world!
However
What he did not know was that Lin Fan had written the answer to the problem on the same day he started researching it.
If Ma Zhong knew, what kind of expression would he have?
After the bell rang, the old professor with gray hair slowly walked in.
He first scanned the students in the classroom. When he saw Lin Fan, his gaze could not help but linger for a few seconds.
However, he did not talk about anything else and started today's class.
Lin Fan was already a little sleepy. Now that he was listening to the old professor's leisurely pace The lecture was like a lullaby. After a few minutes, he closed his eyes and fell asleep on the table. He was relaxed and comfortable.
When the old professor's gaze landed on the sleeping Lin Fan, not only was the old professor not angry, but his turbid eyes were also filled with admiration. As expected of Lin Fan. Even though he had just solved the Hail Conjecture, he had studied all night yesterday! However, he was not sure… what Lin Fan was studying this time.
At this moment, a gentle breeze blew across the table, causing the books on the table to rustle.
Hence, the old professor slowly walked down from the podium and skillfully put his coat on Lin Fan.
He could not let a good student who studied every night catch a cold.
275 The Lively Mathematics World; Overturned!
While Lin Fan was sleeping, the mathematics world that had been silent for a long time suddenly became noisy.
International Mathematics Forum.
Henghong Tool Tool: [I just woke up and suddenly heard someone say that the Hail Conjecture has been solved… Am I dreaming, or have I been sleeping for decades?]
Brother Jiang: [Congratulations on reaching the year 2050.]
Dream God: [Heavens! My mentor and I have been studying the Hail Conjecture for a few years. Recently, we finally made some progress, but now… it's been solved?]
Happy Happy: [Has anyone finished reading the Hail Conjecture thesis?]
Golden Goldfish: [Finished reading? After reading a few pages, I was stunned.]
Huan Xuefei: [Stunned +1.]
Liang Sansui: [I remember that Lin Fan solved Zhou's Conjecture and the Twin Prime Number Conjecture previously, right?]
Five Elements Lacking Money: [Prodigy powerhouses are so terrifying!]
Bo: [The Fields Award is going to be held soon. Do you think he'll win the award?]
Come and Go: [That shouldn't be a problem for him.]
…
Princeton University, America.
Adivan wanted to bury his head in Annual Mathematics.
"Take your time," Jeffrey said with a smile.
Adivan ignored Jeffrey and muttered to himself, "It's actually like this. He could actually use this method to calculate…"
Jeffrey seemed to enjoy seeing Adivan like this, and the smile on his face widened.
After a long time, Adivan slowly moved his gaze away from the magazine and praised, "This mathematician from Hua Nation is really amazing! His name is Lin Fan, right?
"After solving such an important problem, when do you think he'll hold a report?"
Jeffrey said, "That depends on the World Mathematics Organization. It's just that… I wonder if Lin Fan will host the report in Hua Nation again." 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎
In fact, just as Jeffrey had expected, after the World Mathematics Organization found out that the Hail Conjecture was solved, they sent an email directly to Jiangbei University, hoping that Lin Fan could come to Europe to hold a 60-minute report.
…
As for the main character of this matter, Lin Fan, he was still sleeping soundly on the table.
After the school bell rang, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes.
When Lin Fan walked out of the classroom feeling refreshed, Counselor Sun Yaodong, the dean of the Mathematics Department, Hu Chuan, and the others were all standing at the door.
"Lin Fan, congratulations on solving the Hail Conjecture!" Hu Chuan said with a smile.
Lin Fan looked like he was still half-asleep. He waved his hand and said, "It's just a question."
His tone was so relaxed as if he had only answered a simple question like '1+1= 2'.
After saying that, Lin Fan prepared to continue walking out.
Hu Chuan did not dare to hesitate any longer. He quickly said, "The World Mathematics Organization sent an email inviting you to Europe to hold a 60-minute report on the Hail Conjecture."
Lin Fan pursed his lips and asked, "Why is it another report? Tell them to come to Jiangbei if they want to attend the report."
Then, he did not say anything else and walked straight into the distance.
The entire Jiangbei University and the entire mathematics community… They were all discussing Lin Fan solving the Hail Conjecture today.
As for Lin Fan himself, he was still the same as before. He ate and slept as he should. There was no difference at all.
After school ended in the afternoon, Lin Fan drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class toward Coiling Dragon Villa.
In the distance… There was a violent roar of engines. Two cars were actually speeding down the street.
The Land Rover in front seemed to be escaping, while the Volkswagen behind seemed to be chasing.
At this moment, a child suddenly appeared in front of the Volkswagen. In order to avoid danger, the Volkswagen suddenly turned the steering wheel and slammed on the brakes.
However, the speed was too fast, and the car could not stop at all. It crashed into the green belt beside it, and the entire car overturned on the ground.
Seeing this… many people followed and watched from afar.
Lin Fan stepped on the accelerator and arrived beside the Volkswagen.
It was not that he wanted to watch the show but that he knew the owner of the car, Wang Ru!
This was a woman with a strong sense of justice.
Not long ago, Lin Fan encountered an attempted robbery while carrying out an order on DiDi. She was the one who saved him.
Of course, even without her, Lin Fan, who had Violent Aesthetics, would not have let the criminal succeed.
However, it was this incident that gave Lin Fan a good impression of this beautiful woman.
Now, seeing her car overturned, Lin Fan naturally went to take a look.
At the same time, he thought to himself, 'Could she have been chasing a criminal just now?'
At this time, the door of the overturned Volkswagen slowly opened, and Wang Ru climbed out with some difficulty.
"Are you alright?" Lin Fan asked.
Wang Ru was stunned when she saw him.
Clearly, she had not expected to meet Lin Fan here.
Then, Wang Ru's eyes fell on the Mercedes-Benz G next to her. She took out her ID and said anxiously, "I'm investigating a case. Let me borrow your car!"
As she spoke, she was about to head toward the Mercedes-Benz.
However, she seemed to have hurt her leg after the car overturned, and she was limping.
Lin Fan shook his head, "Let me drive."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took a step forward to the driver's seat.
Wang Ru did not hesitate too much. She sat in the passenger seat and said, "Hurry up."
Then, she looked straight ahead and took out her phone to make a call. "My car got into an accident on Southeast Street. Help me deal with it."
After saying that, she hung up the phone and made a second call. "He should be heading toward Route 107. Get someone to stop him in front!"
At this moment, Lin Fan had already started the car and stepped on the accelerator.
In an instant, the entire car was like a roaring beast, letting out an earth-shattering roar.
Then, the speed of the Mercedes-Benz GG continued to increase.
100 yards!
120 yards!
150 yards!
…
Seeing this…
Even Wang Ru, who had always been calm and collected, could not help but have a layer of cold sweat on her forehead.
"Mr. Lin, be careful."
It was no wonder that she would be like this.
One had to know that this was not a highway but a city road!
On the city road, if there was a traffic jam or something happened at this speed, it would not be as simple as the car getting flipped… It would be a total crash!
"Alright," Lin Fan replied.
As a result, he stepped on the accelerator harder.
160 yards!
170 yards!
…
Wang Ru's eyebrows twitched slightly.
She had asked him to be careful, yet this was how was being careful?
276 Hidden Mission; Meddle!
Wang Ru saw that the car did not slow down. Instead, it kept going faster.
The cars and trees outside the window were like a rapid river that kept flowing backward.
She finally could not help but speak again, "Mr. Lin, slow down."
Lin Fan tilted his head and looked at Wang Ru with a strange gaze.
That appearance… It was as if he was saying, 'Didn't you tell me to be as fast as possible? Aren't you chasing after a criminal?'
Wang Ru seemed to have realized this and continued, "Safety first… In addition, my colleague has already…"
At this moment, Lin Fan suddenly said, "We've caught up."
Sure enough, there was a car speeding ahead. It was that Land Rover…
The man in the Land Rover… He seemed to have noticed the Mercedes-Benz G-Class that was speeding toward him. He could not help but step harder on the accelerator and increase his speed again.
However, he soon found out that no matter how much he increased his speed, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class kept closing the distance between them.
The man looked at his speed of 130 km/h and cursed, "Is the driver crazy?"
However, the distance between the two did not increase because of this curse.
On the contrary, the car behind was getting closer and closer.
Just as the man was about to be caught, he coincidentally encountered a relatively narrow fork…
Without any hesitation, he turned the steering wheel and drove into the fork at the risk of almost flipping over.
"You're very fast, aren't you?" The man grinned. "Let's see how you're going to catch up!"
In fact…
It was not just the man who had this kind of mentality. Wang Ru, who was sitting in Lin Fan's car, also had the same thoughts.
Wang Ru sighed and said, "It's over. We can't catch up."
However, Lin Fan said calmly, "Sit tight!"
Wang Ru seemed to have thought of something. Her heart tightened, and she quickly opened her mouth to say something.
However, it was too late!
Lin Fan turned the steering wheel and stepped hard on the brakes.
The tires of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class revolved at high speed, causing a plume of smoke to appear as the tires rubbed against the ground. The screeching sound of the brakes echoed throughout the entire street.
Wang Ru only felt a huge inertia force that seemed to drag her out. Fortunately, she had fastened her seat belt, and her reaction was quick. She grabbed the armrest with one hand and was able to sit up with difficulty.
At this moment, the Mercedes-Benz's two tires had already levitated, and it spun 450 degrees on the ground with just the remaining two tires.
After the sound of a heavy object landing on the ground, the Mercedes-Benz G-Class let out a hurried roar again. Like a ferocious beast, it sped in the direction of the Land Rover.
The man sitting in the Land Rover was almost dumbfounded by what he saw through the rearview mirror. He shouted, "F*ck! That driver can drift too?"
It was also because of this that he was dumbfounded. He was careless and accidentally knocked into a big tree on the road. The airbag popped out, and a wisp of black smoke gradually emerged from the vehicle.
When the man slowly got out of the Land Rover, the Mercedes-Benz G had already stopped steadily beside him.
Lin Fan and the wobbling Wang Ru got out of the car.
The man composed himself and took out a switchblade. "Don't… Don't come over…"
However, Lin Fan did not seem to hear him at all as he slowly walked toward the man.
When he was only one meter away from the man, the man finally shouted and stabbed toward Lin Fan.
Lin Fan's body swayed slightly, and he easily dodged the flick blade.
Then, Lin Fan grabbed the man's right hand that was holding the switchblade and twisted it gently.
At the same time, Lin Fan kicked twice.
Three crisp sounds appeared almost at the same time
The man's arm, left leg, and right leg were all dislocated. He fell to the ground and screamed in pain. He lost all ability to resist.
Seeing this…
Wang Ru's pale face showed a touch of surprise. She could not help but say, "You… You're that powerful? Then why were you robbed at that time?"
Lin Fan shrugged his shoulders, "I wanted to resist too, but you just happened to appear."
Wang Ru opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something.
At this moment, the sound of a police vehicle's siren sounded in the distance.
"Your colleague seems to be here," Lin Fan said. "I'll be leaving first."
After all, he had only helped because he saw an acquaintance whom he had a good impression of getting into trouble.
Now, the problem of his acquaintance was already solved.
Naturally, he did not have any reason to stay any longer.
Otherwise, he might have to go to the police station to assist in the investigation later. That would be too troublesome.
As for Lin Fan… He hated trouble.
Then, without waiting for Wang Ru's reply, Lin Fan returned to the Mercedes-Benz and stepped on the accelerator.
Wang Ru looked at the Mercedes-Benz G-Class that was quickly leaving, and a different color appeared in her beautiful eyes.
At this moment, two police cars stopped at the side.
Several investigators walked down one after another. One of them praised, "Team Leader Wang, did you drive that Mercedes-Benz G-Class? You could even drift on the streets. That was too amazing!"
"Sergeant Wang, are you injured?" Another investigator asked.
An investigator in his 30s looked at the switchblade on the ground and the man lying on the ground. He immediately guessed what had just happened.
He said coldly, "This guy actually wanted to attack Team Leader Wang. He really overestimated himself!"
Wang Ru shook her head. "I didn't catch up with him, and I didn't subdue him."
"Huh?" All the investigators looked puzzled.
The younger investigator could not help but ask, "Who, then?"
Wang Ru slowly raised her head and looked in the direction of the Mercedes-Benz G-Class. She was speechless for a long time.
…
When Lin Fan arrived at the Coiling Dragon Villa, a crisp notification sounded out in his mind.
[Ding! Congratulations, you've completed the hidden mission. You've been rewarded with five silver packets.]
When Lin Fan heard that, he rubbed his nose and muttered, "Is this considered good karma?"
After a pause, he said, "Then let's see… Just how much good karma is there?
"Open the five silver packets!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 500,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 200,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained Haoting Jiayuan Community.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 300,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you have received 900,000 yuan.]
He received 1.9 million yuan from the five silver packets. Lin Fan did not take it to heart.
He immediately focused his attention… on Haoting Jiayuan Community. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟el.𝚌o𝚖
"Haoting Jiayuan Community? I think I've seen it on a billboard before… It seems to be a high-end residential area in the city center that was completed this year…
"I meddled in a situation and got a residential area in the city center worth 1.9 million yuan. Hmm… not bad."
277 Huang Ling's Friend; Praise!
Perhaps it was because he had done a good deed.
It was nighttime… Lin Fan was sleeping soundly.
When he woke up the next day, the sun had already risen high in the sky.
Lin Fan picked up his phone, and a message appeared on the screen.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 7,520,014 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Lin Fan closed the message and looked at the time on the top right corner.
"It's already 10 AM?
"It seems that class has already started… Forget it, I won't go today."
Then, he picked up his phone and sent a message to counselor Sun Yaodong.
In the past, Lin Fan had special rights in the school.
Yesterday, Jiangbei University received news that Lin Fan had solved Hail Conjecture. Lin Fan could now have even more special rights.
Therefore, Sun Yaodong did not hesitate at all and directly approved his leave.
Lin Fan took his time to wash up and leisurely ate a few slices of crab roe bread. Then, he drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class and headed outside.
When he stopped at an intersection, he happened to see Huang Ling on the sidewalk.
Lin Fan turned the steering wheel and walked to the side. He shouted, "Huang Ling!"
Huang Ling turned around and shouted excitedly, "Lin Fan!"
Lin Fan smiled. "What are you doing? Right, isn't Ziqian with you?"
In Lin Fan's impression, Huang Ling and Qiu Ziqian were inseparable.
"She had something to do at home, so she went back," Huang Ling said.
"A few of my high school friends are in Jiangbei. I'm going to meet them."
"A class reunion?" asked Lin Fan.
"Do you want me to go with you?" Lin Fan asked again.
"Really? Do you want to go?" Huang Ling was pleasantly surprised. Her beautiful eyes were faintly glowing.
Initially, Huang Ling had chosen to follow Lin Fan because she envied Qiu Ziqian's life.
However, her envy gradually turned into deep love.
Lin Fan smiled "Where are you guys meeting?"
"Fenglai Hotel in front," Huang Ling hurriedly said.
…
In a private room at Fenglai Hotel.
Three women sat together and chatted casually. They would laugh from time to time. The atmosphere was very relaxed.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
Then, Huang Ling and Lin Fan pushed the door open and walked in.
"You're… Huang Ling?" The woman in the beige windbreaker asked. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Huang Ling nodded at first, then said hesitantly, "Zhou Lan?"
"Wow! It really is you, Huang Ling!" The three of them cried out in surprise.
Instantly, the atmosphere in the private room became even more intense.
Lin Fan secretly observed the three of them. He realized that they were well-dressed and had good looks.
At least… they scored 70 points in appearance.
A beautiful woman would always have beautiful friends.
In fact, when Lin Fan was observing them, the three women were also observing Lin Fan.
They all realized that Lin Fan was tall and had a refined aura. His facial features were well-defined… He was simply a rare handsome man!
Finally, Zhou Lan could not help but ask, "Huang Ling, who's this handsome guy next to you? Why didn't you introduce us?"
"I'm Huang Ling's boyfriend, Lin Fan," Lin Fan introduced himself.
Immediately, the three of them began to tease.
"I didn't expect our class belle to have a boyfriend now!"
"But Huang Ling has good taste!"
"A handsome man paired with a beautiful woman, what a splendid sight!"
When Huang Lingyan heard this, her face blushed slightly. Her eyes were filled with happiness and sweetness.
At this moment, the door was pushed open again.
A woman in a Balenciaga dress with heavy makeup and a Gucci bag on her waist strolled in with a beer-bellied man.
Everyone in the private room could not help but look at the door.
However, no matter how they looked at the woman, they did not find her familiar at all. The same went for the man with the beer belly.
Zhou Lan could not help but ask, "You're…"
"I'm Xu Lihua," said the woman with heavy makeup."
"You're Xu Lihua?" Zhou Lan asked in surprise.
The other people in the private room also let out a wave of incredulous sounds.
"Lihua, you've changed a lot."
"I almost didn't recognize you at all."
…
"It looks like it's worth it to spend tens of thousands of yuan on cosmetics every month," Xu Lihua said proudly.
In Xu Lihua's eyes… If everyone said that she had changed a lot, then she must have become more beautiful.
Of course, more importantly, she had to tell them that she used cosmetics that cost tens of thousands of yuan every month.
Then, Xu Lihua scanned the room. When she saw Huang Ling, her heavily made-up face flashed with anger.
In high school, Huang Ling was the most beautiful girl in class. She had excellent grades too.
Therefore, whether it was the teachers or the students, especially the male students, they were all very good to her.
This made Xu Lihua very jealous.
In Xu Lihua's opinion, if it were not for Huang Ling, everything she had would have belonged to her.
She should be the woman who was praised by all.
At this moment, Xu Lihua noticed Lin Fan. Her face flashed with surprise as she asked, "This is…"
Zhou Lan introduced, "This is Lin Fan, Huang Ling's boyfriend. Isn't he handsome?"
Huang Ling's boyfriend!
Why?
Why was her boyfriend so handsome?!
The surprise on Xu Lihua's face disappeared and was replaced by… jealousy and hatred.
"Not only is he handsome, but he's also very young!" The woman beside him immediately praised. "He looks like a student!"
"I'm indeed a student," Lin Fan said with a smile. "I'm studying at Jiangbei University."
Everyone in the room became even more excited.
"Heavens! He really is a student!"
Xu Lihua snorted lightly. She fiddled with the LV bag in her hand and said, "So, you're a student! Jiangbei University is alright. Huang Ling, if he graduates in the future, he can join my husband's company!
"Since we're former classmates, it's not a problem to offer him a salary of 18,000 yuan!"
After a pause, Xu Lihua said to the few people beside her, "You guys too… If you have any relatives or friends looking for a job, you can have them join my husband's company."
"Really?" Zhou Lan and the others were pleasantly surprised.
When Xu Lihua's husband, Zhang Jianbo, walked into the room, he was immediately attracted by Huang Ling's appearance.
At this moment, after he heard everyone's conversation, his eyes shifted slightly as he smiled casually. "Of course, it's true!
"Although I run a construction company, I want talents from all kinds of backgrounds, including human resources, accounting, management, security, drivers, construction, design, media, and so on. You're all Lihua's classmates, so you'll be treated well!
"By the way, do any of you want houses in the school district of Second Primary School?"
When Zhou Lan and the others heard this, they were all extremely excited. "That's great!"
278 Assist; Too Funny!
One had to know…
The two things that people from Hua Nation were most concerned about were housing in the school district and work.
At this moment, Zhang Jianbo could easily help everyone solve those concerns.
How could they not be excited?
Zhang Jianbo had his own reasons for saying this.
In his opinion… He was showing off the huge scale and ability of his company.
Huang Ling, this beauty, must be worshipping him now.
When he had the chance to find a way to contact her, he would definitely be able to get his hands on her quickly.
Zhang Jianbo had done similar things many times, so he was very familiar with these methods.
Xu Lihua raised her head like a proud white swan and said, "Haoting Jiayuan Community is next to Second Primary School. You guys should have heard of it before, right?
"The houses in the residential area are luxurious, and the exquisite decorations inside… will be done by my husband's company!
"My husband is very familiar with the boss of the developer of Haoting Jiayuan Community. If you want a house in the school district, just go over and tell them my husband's name."
As soon as she said that, the private room became even livelier.
"I'm planning to buy a house. Lihua, I'll have to trouble you."
"I want to buy a house too…"
"Haoting Jiayuan Community. There seem to be more than a thousand houses in this community…Wouldn't the renovation of all the houses cost tens of millions? Lihua, your husband is amazing!"
"Tens of millions? Oh my God!"
…
Xu Lihua looked at everyone's admiring gazes, and her face was full of pride.
However, she still said in a calm tone, "Have you heard of Haoting Building?"
Zhou Lan immediately said, "I do! It's a very tall building by the river!"
"Yes!" Xu Lihua nodded. "The renovation of that building will also be done by my husband's company!"
Everyone exclaimed again.
"Heavens! Such a tall building was actually renovated by your husband's company. That project was probably worth more than a hundred million yuan!"
"A hundred million yuan?!"
"Your husband is too strong!"
"Lihua, you've really found a good husband!"
…
Xu Lihua was so happy that she almost trembled when she heard everyone's envious voices.
She glanced at Huang Ling. That look… It was as if she was saying, 'So what if you've found a young and handsome boyfriend? Compared to my husband, he's far inferior!'
"By the way, do you know about Happy World Amusement Park?" Xu Lihua asked.
"The Happy World Amusement Park in the North District?" someone said.
"If it's that, I've heard of it. It seems to be the largest amusement park in the central region. It cost tens of billions to build!"
"That's right, it's a big amusement park! I even said that I would bring my nephew there to play in the future."
…
"The basic facilities of this amusement park will be built by my husband's company," Xu Lihua said.
In an instant, the entire private room was in an uproar.
"Oh my God!"
"Your husband is really too… too… He's too powerful!"
First, it was Haoting Jiayuan's exquisite renovation. Then, it was Haoting Building. Now… it was Happy World Amusement Park!
Everyone did not know how to praise Zhang Jianbo anymore.
They looked at Xu Lihua with envy and Zhang Jianbo with admiration. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝗺
….
Lin Fan, who was standing at the side, had a weird look on his face.
Haoting Jiayuan Community?
Haoting Building?
Happy World Amusement Park?
These… Were they not all his properties?
….
Zhang Jianbo did not expect Xu Lihua to say all that…
His company was indeed going to renovate Haoting Jiayuan Community.
However, it was not all of the houses. It was just for the renovation of one building.
His company was indeed going to renovate Haoting Building.
However, it was not the entire building, just a few floors.
His company was indeed going to build the basic facilities for Happy World Amusement Park, but it was just a few toilets.
All the projects added up to an estimated tens of millions.
From Xu Lihua's words… it seemed like a super project worth billions.
Zhang Jianbo secretly looked at Huang Ling beside him and realized that she seemed to be looking at him as well. He was delighted and secretly praised, 'Wife, good assist!'
Thus, Zhang Jianbo acted as if he did not care and said, "Actually, I don't care about the projects at all. After all, I've already earned enough money.
"If it's possible, I'd rather not take on so many projects and have more free time to rest.
"However, the people in charge of these projects are my friends. If they insist on making me do it, I can't do anything about it."
After saying that, he did not forget to look at Huang Ling again.
It was as if he was saying, 'Beauty, follow me. I'm rich!'
Zhang Jianbo's thoughts and Xu Lihua's hostility toward Huang Ling could not escape Lin Fan's eyes.
"What's your name?" he asked.
"Zhang Jianbo." Zhang Jianbo slowly turned his body, but his answer was directed at Huang Ling as if he was introducing himself to her.
Lin Fan said calmly, "Zhang Jianbo, right? Since you don't want to do these projects, I'll help you reject them."
After saying that, he picked up his phone and dialed the number of Zhang Kai, the general manager of Haoting Jiayuan Community.
When Lin Fan had obtained Haoting Jiayuan Community, the other party had called him once with the excuse of reporting work.
Naturally, Lin Fan did not listen to it seriously. He just casually said a few words to dismiss him.
"Hello, Mr. Lin." At this moment, Zhang Kai's extremely respectful voice sounded as soon as the call was connected.
"Did you hand over all the renovations to a man named Zhang Jianbo?" Lin Fan asked.
"Our renovation works were handed over to several companies for renovation…" Zhang Kai said.
As he spoke, he was still flipping through the information.
Soon, he continued, "Zhang Jianbo is renovating one of the houses. It's a nine-story bungalow. Mr. Lin, we…"
Lin Fan did not wait for Zhang Kai to finish and said directly, "Terminate the contract with him."
Zhang Kai did not hesitate at all and said, "Yes, Sir!"
After Lin Fan hung up, Xu Lihua asked, "Huang Ling, who did your boyfriend call?"
"The general manager of Haoting Jiayuan Community… Didn't your husband say he doesn't want to do so many projects? I'll help him reduce his workload a little," Lin Fan said.
"You called the general manager of Haoting Jiayuan Community?" Xu Lihua asked curiously. "Don't tell me you're the son of the owner of Haoting Jiayuan Community?"
Lin Fan shook his head, "That's not the case… I'm the owner of Haoting Jiayuan."
Xu Lihua could not help but burst into laughter.
"Hehehe! Huang Ling, your boyfriend is so funny! Did you hear that? He actually said that he called the general manager of Haoting Jiayuan to ask him to cancel the cooperation with my husband…
"Moreover, he even said that he's the owner of Haoting Jiayuan. This is too funny."
279 I'm the Owner; As You Wish!
If Lin Fan had said that he was the son of the owner of Haoting Jiayuan, Xu Lihua would have believed him.
However, Lin Fan actually said that he was the owner of Haoting Jiayuan…
In Xu Lihua's eyes, this was a joke!
What a joke!
One had to know…
Haoting Jiayuan was the school district of Second Primary School in the city center.
Lin Fan was just a student.
As a student, could he be the owner of Haoting Jiayuan?
This was impossible!
Lin Fan ignored Xu Lihua and made another call.
This time, he called the general manager of Haoting Building.
"Hello, Mr. Lin. What can I do for you?"
As soon as the call connected, the general manager's respectful voice sounded from the other end.
Lin Fan said directly, "Immediately cancel all cooperation with Zhang Jianbo!"
The general manager did not know who Zhang Jianbo was, but he still said without hesitation, "Yes, Sir!"
After Lin Fan hung up, Xu Lihua asked, "Who did you call this time?"
"The general manager of Haoting Building," Lin Fan said.
"Are you telling me that you're also the owner of Haoting Building?" Xu Lihua asked, trying hard not to laugh.
Lin Fan nodded. "Yeah."
"Hahaha!"
Xu Lihua laughed so hard that she could not control herself.
Beside her, Zhang Jianbo shook his head like an elder and said, "I might need to remind you…Although Haoting Jiayuan and Haoting Building have similar names, the residential area and the building weren't built by the same company."
What he meant was that the boss of these two properties was not the same person. He should not say that he was the owner of these two properties anymore.
Then, she saw that Lin Fan was still holding his phone. It seemed like he wanted to continue making calls. She could not help but say again, "Are you going to say that you're the owner of Happy World Amusement Park?"
"I'm indeed the owner of Happy World Amusement Park," Lin Fan said calmly.
Xu Lihua laughed so hard that her body trembled. Cracks appeared on her face that was covered with heavy makeup. The thick foundation fell on her clothes like snowflakes.
"Is that so? Then… Then hurry up and call Happy World Amusement Park to cancel the contract with my husband. It'll also make my husband feel a little more relaxed, hahaha!"
Lin Fan said, "As you wish."
After saying that, he made another call.
"Hello, Mr. Lin." A flattering voice came from the phone.
Lin Fan said directly, "Terminate the contract with Zhang Jianbo."
"Alright."
The call ended.
When Xu Lihua saw that Lin Fan had really gone to make a call, she laughed so hard that tears flowed out.
"Huang… Huang Ling, I finally understand why you chose him as your boyfriend… He must have told you that he's the CEO of many companies, right?
"Your boyfriend… Really… He's really handsome and rich! Hahaha!"
Xu Lihua's laughter grew louder after she said the last sentence.
Originally, Zhou Lan and the others had a good impression of Lin Fan.
At this moment, they could not help but shake their heads.
They did not like people who bragged.
As for Lin Fan?
He bragged again and again.
Xu Lihua's husband just said that he had a partnership with Haoting Jiayuan, Haoting Building, and Happy World Amusement Park.
Lin Fan just happened to be the owner of these three?
Was there such a coincidence?
Was he playing with them like a monkey?
Zhou Lan finally could not help but say, "Lin Fan, don't joke around like this."
Everyone treated Lin Fan's words as a joke.
Except… Huang Ling.
She looked at Lin Fan in shock.
Those properties were indeed famous, but as long as Lin Fan said it, it was true!
She trusted Lin Fan unconditionally!
At this moment, Zhang Jianbo's phone rang urgently.
He looked at the caller ID, and his eyes lit up. He smiled and said, "What a coincidence! We were just talking about Haoting Jiayuan, and now… the director of Haoting Jiayuan is calling me!
"Everyone, please be quiet!"
As Zhang Jianbo spoke, he deliberately waved the phone in his hand. He first glanced at Lin Fan with a mocking gaze, then his gaze landed on Huang Ling.
That appearance… It was as if he was saying to Huang Ling, 'Your boyfriend only knows how to brag, while I'm the real rich man!'
Very soon, the entire private room fell silent.
Then, Zhang Jianbo pressed the answer button and turned on the speaker.
The next moment, a roar came from the phone.
"Zhang Jianbo! What the hell are you doing?
"I kindly gave you a small mansion in Haoting Jiayuan to renovate, but is this how you repay me?!" 𝘣𝘦𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝑔
Zhang Jianbo was so frightened that his body trembled. He stuttered, "…Director Wang, this… Is there a misunderstanding?"
"Misunderstanding? What f*cking misunderstanding? The owner of Haoting Jiayuan personally called the general manager and said that he wants to cancel the contract with you! Tell me, what misunderstanding could there be?
"Damn it! If the higher-ups punish me, I definitely won't let you off easily!"
After saying that, Director Wang hung up the phone.
The busy tone kept echoing in the private room.
Zhang Jianbo, Xu Lihua, Zhou Lan, and the others seemed to have been immobilized. They did not move at all.
The owner personally called the general manager and canceled the cooperation with Zhang Jianbo.
When everyone heard these words… they felt that it was so familiar.
Zhang Jianbo's throat moved as if he wanted to say something.
At this moment, his phone rang again.
The caller ID showed that it was Director Liu of Haoting Building.
Like before, Zhang Jianbo hurriedly answered the call.
"Zhang Jianbo! F*ck you! How dare you offend the big boss of our Haoting Building?!" Director Liu shouted angrily.
Zhang Jianbo's body trembled again, and a thin layer of sweat seeped out of his forehead. He stuttered, "D-Director Liu… I… I didn't…"
"Motherf*cker! The big boss just called the general manager! You've harmed my interests this time around! I'm telling you, if you can't satisfy the big boss, I'll definitely make you regret it!" Director Liu shouted sternly.
Then, the other party hung up the phone again.
The busy tone echoed in the private room once more.
The owner of the building had called the general manager again.
Zhang Jianbo, Xu Lihua, Zhou Lan, and the others could not help but think of Lin Fan and his words.
Everyone turned around slowly like puppets and looked at Lin Fan.
280 I Will Grant You Your Wish; The Price!
The sound of the bell broke the silence in the private room.
Zhang Jianbo looked at the caller ID on the screen. It was Director Zhao of Happy World Amusement Park.
He had a bad premonition.
The phone rang in the private room for a long time…
Finally, Zhang Jianbo reached out his trembling fingers and pressed the answer button.
Immediately, another familiar roar resounded throughout the entire private room.
"Zhang Jianbo! F*ck!
"I took pity on you, and that's why I let you renovate the toilets in the amusement park. But what the hell did you do?!"
Zhang Jianbo said in a panic, "I…" I…"
When Director Zhao heard his voice, he was furious and shouted, "Your *ss! You're so f*cking bold! How dare you provoke the big shot of our Happy World Amusement Park? He personally called the general manager and told him to cancel all cooperation with you!
"Do you think this will end at just the cancelation of the cooperation? I'm telling you, this matter isn't over!"
The familiar busy tone echoed in the private room.
At this moment, no matter how stupid everyone was…
They understood that Zhang Jianbo was not contracted to do the renovation of all the houses in Haoting Jiayuan, nor was he contracted to renovate all the floors of Haoting Building. Additionally, he was not responsible for all the facilities in Happy World Amusement Park.
He had always been bragging.
Lin Fan, on the other hand, did not joke around.
He was really the owner of Haoting Jiayuan, Haoting Building, and Happy World Amusement Park.
Zhang Jianbo recalled the words of the three directors, and his entire body was drenched in sweat. He quickly bowed to Lin Fan and apologized, "I-I'm sorry. Please forgive me this time…"
His company only took on the renovation of a bungalow in Haoting Jiayuan, the renovation of a few floors of Haoting Building, and the renovation of a few toilets in Happy World Amusement Park.
The total sum of all the projects was only tens of millions.
However, they were very big projects for his company.
For the sake of these projects, Zhang Jianbo sent a large number of gifts.
Two days ago, he recruited a new batch of employees and purchased a large number of materials.
Zhang Jianbo would lose a large sum of money.
It was already unbearable for Zhang Jianbo.
In addition, the directors of these three companies were going to look for trouble with him.
These three directors were definitely big shots in the industry. Any one of them could suppress Zhang Jianbo until there was nothing he could do.
Now, the three of them would be attacking at the same time.
The consequences…
Just thinking about it made Zhang Jianbo tremble.
Xu Lihua did not expect Lin Fan to be the owner of Haoting Jiayuan, Haoting Building, and Happy World Amusement Park.
She roared angrily in her heart, 'Why? Why is Huang Ling's boyfriend so young and handsome? Moreover, he's a super tycoon! God, are you blind?!'
However, Xu Lihua said, "L-Lin Fan, we were just joking. Why did you take it seriously?"
How could Xu Lihua's expression escape Lin Fan's eyes?
"What do you mean?" He asked lightly. "I just want you and your husband to get what you want. Don't worry, I'll let your husband rest well."
Then, Lin Fan said to Huang Ling, "I don't think I've ever gone shopping or eaten with you alone. Why don't… we do it today?"
Huang Ling's beautiful eyes lit up immediately. She nodded and said, "Alright!" 𝚋𝚎𝚍n𝚘v𝚎𝚕.𝚗𝚎𝚝
Although her gathering with her high school classmates had not started yet, how could a mere gathering compare to shopping and eating with Lin Fan.
Hence, Lin Fan held Huang Ling's slender waist and prepared to walk out.
Xu Lihua could not help but feel a little anxious. She shouted, "Huang… Huang Ling, our gathering hasn't started yet…
"We were high school classmates. You have to help me persuade your boyfriend…"
However, Huang Ling did not care about her at all. She continued to walk out with Lin Fan.
In fact, Huang Ling did not pay much attention to this gathering.
After all, they were not particularly close in high school.
Moreover, after so many years, they had almost become strangers.
As for helping to persuade Lin Fan?
It was even more impossible for Huang Ling to do that.
That was because as long as Lin Fan had decided on something, she would not go against him.
Furthermore, Xu Lihua had mocked Lin Fan earlier.
Taunting Lin Fan?
Well, she had to pay the price now!
Lin Fan and Huang Ling quickly walked out of the room and disappeared from everyone's sight.
At this moment, Zhang Jianbo's phone rang again.
"Boss, this is bad. The construction sites that we used to work with have all chased us out. In addition, the bosses of the places we got the bricks, cement, sand, and other materials from have all come to collect debts…"
Zhang Jianbo's body went limp, and his phone fell to the ground. He slumped on the chair, his face pale. He said dejectedly, "It's over…"
…
Lin Fan and Huang Ling did not care about what happened after that.
Just as Lin Fan sat in the Mercedes-Benz, his phone in his pocket vibrated.
12:00!
The red packets were here!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five yuan."
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 1,999 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 55 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 18,888 yuan.]
Lin Fan clicked on the red packets a few times and received a total of 51,331 yuan.
Then, he put his phone in his pocket and stepped on the gas pedal, heading toward the shopping mall.
Today, Lin Fan bought Huang Ling a bunch of clothes, shoes, and cosmetics… He spent a total of 1,398,000 yuan.
When they passed by a car dealership, Lin Fan spent another 470,000 yuan to buy a Mini Cooper for Huang Ling.
In the past, Lin Fan had planned to buy a car for Huang Ling.
However, at that time, Huang Ling said that she was always with Qiu Ziqian and that the two of them could use one car.
As it turned out, when Qiu Ziqian had something to do, Huang Ling did not have a car to use. It was very inconvenient.
At night, Lin Fan and Huang Ling went to a two-star Michelin restaurant. They ordered top-grade foie gras, M5 Wagyu beef, caviar egg tarts, and cheese snails… as well as a bottle of Romanée-Conti.
This dinner cost 43,320 yuan.
As the two of them ate, they listened to the faint sounds in the restaurant while admiring the night view outside the French windows… It was very relaxing and comfortable.
That night, Lin Fan and Huang Ling arrived at Yi Ke City.
Perhaps it was because of the moonlight shining on Huang Ling's body that she gradually felt extremely hot.
Huang Ling's body began to heat up, and her pretty face gradually became hot!
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
? (ˉ﹃ˉ?)
Rip!
281 Mature Spirit Tea; Delicious!
Lin Fan went to school in the morning, listened to classes, slept, and ate… The past two days were extremely dull and leisurely
After school today, Lin Fan returned to the Coiling Dragon Villa.
He first sat on the sofa and played with his phone for a while. As if he had thought of something, he could not help but mutter, "It seems… It's been a while since I watered the Spirit Tea Plants."
As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up and walked toward the lake where the Spirit Tea Plants were planted.
In the next moment…
Lin Fan was stunned.
This was because he had only planted the Spirit Tea Plants two weeks ago. Now, they were already as tall as half a person. They were all green too.
It was as if a green ocean had been added to the boundless lake.
When a gentle breeze blew past from afar, a sweet fragrance wafted over, causing Lin Fan's entire body to feel refreshed and relaxed.
Just the smell alone was so good. How good would the tea be when drinking it?
As Lin Fan thought about it, he quickly plucked a batch of tea leaves, washed them, and fried them…
His movements were extremely swift, skilled, standard, and natural.
If there was a tea maker here, they would definitely be shocked.
This was because frying tea was a skill.
However, Lin Fan pushed his technique to the extreme.
Even if he was compared to an expert who had specialized in frying tea for more than ten years, he would not be inferior.
However, Lin Fan was only in his 20s!
Could it be that he had started frying tea leaves when he started walking?
Simply… unbelievable!
In fact, it was normal for Lin Fan to have such superb tea-frying skills.
After all, he had Expert-Level Tea Ceremony Skills, so it was naturally not a problem for him to fry tea leaves.
About an hour later, the curled-up tea leaves were placed in front of Lin Fan.
Then, Lin Fan chose the right amount of tea leaves to brew.
Lin Fan could not wait to drink the tea.
He poured it into his mouth eagerly.
Clear, fragrant, and refreshing!
The aftertaste was endless!
After drinking the tea, Lin Fan felt as though his entire soul had been cleansed. All the fatigue and discomfort in his body were swept away.
Even Lin Fan could not help but praise, "Good tea!"
Then, he could not help but drink a few big glasses.
"This tea… It can definitely prolong one's life!"
Hence, Lin Fan plucked a large batch of tea leaves and continued to stir-fry them at home.
If one drank ordinary tea at night, it would be very difficult to fall asleep.
However, Spirit Tea was the complete opposite. It allowed Lin Fan to sleep more comfortably than usual.
The next day, after Lin Fan had his lunch, he took a big box of tea leaves that he had prepared last night and drove his Mercedes-Benz toward Qing City.
It was good stuff… Naturally, he had to give it to his parents at the first possible moment.
Lin Fan sped along the highway and arrived at his house in about an hour.
Just as Lin Fan got out of the car, a surprised cry sounded from afar.
"Brother, why are you back?"
Even though Lin Fan had not seen the person, he knew that it was his sister, Lin Xiaoyao, just by hearing the voice.
"Yeah, I brought something back… You came at the right time. Come over and help me carry it."
As Lin Fan spoke, he pointed at the big box in the trunk.
"Brother, I'm your sister!" Lin Xiaoyao protested. "I'm a girl!" Do you have the heart to let me carry such a big thing?"
"How can I bear to?" Lin Fan said. "But… this is for your own good. Look at you… Your face is getting sharper and sharper. You have to move some things and exercise a little. Only then will you be able to grow rounder. Won't it be better for you to be round?"
After Lin Fan finished speaking, he did not forget to pinch Lin Xiaoyao's cheeks. He shook his head, "It's getting more and more serious."
"Brother!" Lin Xiaoyao protested again.
Even though she was shouting, she still carried the big box according to Lin Fan's instructions.
"Huh, it doesn't seem very heavy…" Lin Xiaoyao said. "Brother, what's inside? Could it be facial masks?"
At this point, Lin Xiaoyao's eyes lit up.
Lin Fan was just about to answer when Dai Weixue's happy voice rang out, "Lil Fan, you're back?"
"Yes, I am." Lin Fan smiled.
Beside him, Lin Xiaoyao, who was carrying a big box, said, "Mom, I'm here too."
Lin Tao, who was in the bedroom, heard the sound and came out. He said, "Lil Yao, why are you carrying such a big box?"
Then, he said in a blaming tone, "Lil Fan, aren't you going to help Lil Yao? You're her brother!"
As he spoke, he went forward to help Lin Xiaoyao carry the box.
However, Lin Fan was one step ahead and took the box from Lin Xiaoyao.
As a son… Of course, he could not trouble his parents.
Lin Xiaoyao could not help but raise her white and tender chin as she smiled smugly at Lin Fan. That look… she was like a victorious little swan.
"What's in the big box?" asked Dai Weixue.
Lin Xiaoyao could not help but prick up her ears to listen.
Obviously, she was also very curious.
Lin Fan replied," There are tea leaves inside. They taste pretty good."
Lin Xiaoyao could not help but look disappointed when she heard that. She pursed her lips and said, "What's so good about tea?"
Lin Tao's eyes lit up. "Is that so? Then I want to have a good taste of it!"
As he spoke, he opened the box. 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗𝚘𝚟el.c𝚘𝚖
He took a suitable amount of tea leaves and put them into the kettle, filling it with boiling water.
Whoosh!
Instantly, the rich fragrance of tea filled the entire room.
Even Lin Xiaoyao, who was not interested in tea, could not help but sniff and swallow her saliva.
Lin Tao could not wait to pour himself a cup.
Gulp!
As the tea entered his throat, an unprecedented sense of relief floated to his heart.
At this moment, Lin Tao felt as if he had instantly become ten years younger. Moreover, he had arrived in the overlapping mountain forests. He quietly watched the stream flow, the tender shoots spread out, and the gentle breeze blow.
Everything… was so fresh and so natural.
Lin Fan poured a cup of tea for his mother and said, "Mom, try this tea too."
Dai Weixue had long been attracted by the fragrance of the tea. She took the teacup and took a sip. Her face immediately revealed an expression of enjoyment that was difficult to hide.
Lin Xiaoyao, who was beside them, saw how intoxicated her parents were. She quickly found a cup and said, "Brother, quickly pour a cup for me. I want to drink it too."
Lin Fan smiled. "I thought you didn't drink tea?"
"Brother, I want it!" Lin Xiaoyao said coquettishly.
Lin Fan smiled and shook his head. Then, he poured her a cup of tea and said, "Be careful, don't burn yourself."
Gulp, gulp!
Lin Xiaoyao did not care much and poured the tea into her mouth. Soon, she shouted excitedly, "It's so delicious!"
Then, she held out her cup and shouted, "Brother, I want more!"
282 Awesome; Elder Qin's Invitation!
The family drank tea and chatted at home. It was extremely relaxed and warm.
At this moment, Lin Xiaoyao seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Oh right, Brother, did you solve Hail Conjecture?"
She saw the news on her phone today.
However, the news only mentioned the school and the person's name. There was no photo at all.
Initially, Lin Xiaoyao had planned to call Lin Fan today to ask him.
Now, she could ask him face-to-face.
Lin Fan replied, "Yeah."
Lin Xiaoyao's eyes immediately widened as she shouted, "F*ck! Awesome!"
"Lil Yao, you're a girl. You need to watch your words?" Dai Weixue scolded.
"Mom, that's Hail Conjecture!" Lin Xiaoyao said. "It's an unsolved problem in the world!"
"You should still watch your words… Do you still want to get married in the future?" Dai Weixue said.
"Why would I marry?" Lin Xiaoyao asked nonchalantly. "If I marry, what about my brother's money?"
Time at home was like a stream of water, passing by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the second day.
Under the urging of his parents, Lin Fan ate lunch and drove the Mercedes-Benz to Jiangbei.
Just as he arrived at the Coiling Dragon Villa, the phone in Lin Fan's pocket rang.
He looked at the caller ID and was surprised.
It was because the caller was Old Master Qin Weiming.
Lin Fan had a good impression of this old man.
He was bold and forthright, and he would repay kindness.
More importantly… If it were not for Qin Weiming's group of people who had sacrificed their lives and fought hard, he would not be living a happy life today.
Lin Fan did not hesitate and answered the call.
"Hello, Elder Qin."
"I came to Jiangbei with an old friend," Qin Weiming said after a pause. "He's not in good health. Can you come over to visit him when you're free?"
This was his personality. He did not like to beat about the bush and be polite.
Lin Fan was not disgusted by this.
On the contrary… he also liked this kind of communication.
Old Master Qin Weiming's good friend was probably an old hero.
Thus, Lin Fan replied, "Alright, I'll be right there."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan casually packed two bags of tea leaves and drove the Mercedes-Benz G-Class into the distance.
Not long after, Lin Fan arrived in front of the manor that he had been to before. Just like that time, there was a sentry at the door.
Clearly, they had already received orders. They did not stop Lin Fan's car and just let it pass.
At this moment, Qin Weiming, Yue Zixiao, who had a badge on his shoulder, Hong Hanlin, the head of Jiang Province, and the others were sitting in the courtyard and chatting. 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝘨
Qin Weiming heard the noise and slowly turned around. He laughed heartily and said, "Lin Fan, you came at the right time. We were just talking about you!"
Instantly, everyone present… turned their gazes to Lin Fan.
One had to know…
Everyone present was of high status, and their bodies were filled with a dense aura.
An ordinary person would probably be so frightened that their legs would tremble and their backs would be drenched in sweat even if they faced the gaze of any one of them. They would not dare to go forward.
However, Lin Fan remained calm.
"What are you talking about, Elder Qin?" he asked with a smile.
When everyone saw this, they nodded secretly.
"I told him you're good at chess, but he doesn't believe me!" Qin Weiming said. As he spoke, he pointed at the old man sitting in the wheelchair beside him.
Lin Fan could not help but size up the old man.
Although the old man was skinny and his skin was wrinkled, his cloudy eyes were like an eagle soaring in the sky. He was very spirited and gave people a feeling of dignity without anger.
"My name is Zhang Jian. Little Brother Lin, just now, Elder Qin made you sound so godly…
"But I've always believed that seeing is believing. Moreover, Elder Qin likes to go around bragging.
"So, Little Brother Lin, can you play two rounds with me?"
Qin Weiming immediately glared at him and said, "Old Zhang, when did I like to brag?"
Zhang Jian smiled and said, "Why… Are you afraid of being laughed at by exposing yourself in front of so many people? Are you angry from embarrassment?"
In fact, who dared to laugh at him?
Qin Weiming was so anxious that he stomped his feet. "Alright, alright! Lin Fan, hurry up and take him down! Don't hold back!"
Lin Fan looked at the chess table beside him and the boiling water. "I've brought some good tea over. How about this? I'll make some tea for everyone first.
"Then, we'll drink tea and play chess. What do you think, Mr. Zhang?"
The middle-aged man who was standing behind Zhang Jian with the badge on his shoulder took a step forward and opened his mouth to say something.
One had to know…
Old leaders like Zhang Jian and Qin Weiming could not simply consume anything.
Even if it was just tea leaves, it would not work.
However, Qin Weiming beat him to it and said, "Alright! Then let's make tea first!"
Then, he turned to Zhang Jian and said, "I forgot to mention that Lin Fan's tea art is also at the master level!"
"Really?" Zhang Jian asked.
At this moment, Lin Fan walked over with two large bags of tea leaves.
He put the tea leaves into the teapot, then poured a full pot of boiling water. Finally, he poured the tea leaves into cups.
Only then did he say, "Elder Qin, Elder Zhang, and everyone else… Please have some tea."
Seeing this…
Zhang Jian looked at Qin Weiming strangely.
That look, it was as if he was saying… 'Is this the master-level tea art?'
Qin Weiming's face turned slightly red as he shouted, "Lin Fan, you didn't make tea like this last time!"
After all, he had just bragged about Lin Fan's tea art.
It was simply a slap in the face in the blink of an eye.
Lin Fan said, "That was too wasteful last time."
Qin Weiming seemed to want to say something, but Zhang Jian smiled and said, "Not bad! Drinking tea like this is simple and wasteful. I think it's good!"
As he spoke, he picked up the teacup and poured it into his mouth.
Gulp!
After drinking the tea, Zhang Jian seemed to have been immobilized. His entire body was completely frozen.
At this moment, Zhang Jian seemed to have returned to the era of his strong body and extraordinary years.
He no longer needed a wheelchair. He could carry a spear and a machete, run on the ground with all his might, and knock down enemies one after another…
Everything was so smooth and relaxing!
The middle-aged man who was standing behind Zhang Jian with the badge on his shoulder saw that Zhang Jian was holding the teacup without moving for a long time. His heart suddenly tightened as he asked anxiously, "Old Leader, what's wrong?"
This shout finally pulled Zhang Jian back to reality. He sincerely praised, "Good tea!"
283 Tea Name; Spirit Tea!
At the same time, Qin Weiming also picked up his cup and poured the tea into his mouth.
Instantly, his tiger eyes widened as he shouted, "Good tea!"
Then, he picked up the teapot, poured another full cup, and brought it to his mouth.
"Old Qin, my cup is empty too."
"Don't you have hands?" Qin Weiming glanced at him."
!
Although he said that, he still poured a cup for her.
Then, he said to Hong Hanlin and the others, "Don't just sit there. Take your own cups and drink!
"Why… Do you want me to serve you?"
When everyone heard this, they hurriedly said, "We'll do it ourselves…"
As a matter of fact, when they heard Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian's praises, they were already very interested in the tea.
However, due to Qin Weiming's and Zhang Jian's identities, they did not dare to make a move.
Hearing Qin Weiming's words, the crowd did not hesitate anymore. They picked up their teacups and poured the tea into their mouths.
As soon as the tea entered their throats, a refreshing feeling that they had never felt before immediately surfaced in their hearts.
This feeling… It was as if their bodies, throats, and even their stomachs… were all weighed down by mud.
However, they were suddenly washed by a clear spring.
It was a sense of clarity and relaxation that they had never felt before.
Everyone's faces revealed an intoxicated expression that was difficult to conceal.
At this moment, Zhang Jian, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said, "I've drunk quite a bit of tea before, but even they are far inferior to this tea… Little Brother Lin, what kind of tea is this?"
Everyone around pricked up their ears. It was obvious that they were also very concerned about this.
If they could drink this tea often, it would definitely be a pleasure.
If they gave it to someone else, it would definitely be the best gift!
"After drinking this tea, it can make one feel refreshed. It detoxifies and nourishes the skin. It can also help prolong one's life… It's very magical. It's a little like the spiritual liquid in fantasy novels, so I call Spirit Tea."
After all, Lin Fan could not say that he got it from a red packet.
Of course, even if he did say it, everyone would only think that he was joking.
When everyone heard that Lin Fan had used a special method to grow the tea and that the amount was very small, they all revealed a helpless look.
Forget about giving the tea as gifts, they might not even be able to drink it a second time.
Zhang Jian said, "This tea actually has such magical effects… Spirit Tea? It's a good name!"
Although he said that, he did not care much about whether he could maintain his appearance and prolong his life.
The key was that the tea was indeed delicious.
After a pause, Zhang Jian continued, "My body is getting worse and worse year by year. Maybe I won't be able to open my eyes again when I close them one day. With these two bags of tea leaves, I think I should be able to hold on for a few more years.
"Little Brother Lin, thank you for the tea leaves!"
Qin Weiming, who was still drinking tea, shouted, "What do you mean by that?
"He gave the leaves to all of us!"
Lin Fan looked at the two old men who were like children fighting over their favorite toys. He could not help but laugh, "Although there aren't many tea leaves, I can still give some to Elder Qin next time."
"Haha!" Zhang Jian was overjoyed when he heard this. "Look…"
However, before he could finish speaking, he could not help but cough violently.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
In fact, he even seemed to be out of breath.
The expression of the middle-aged man with the badge on his shoulder changed drastically. He hurriedly shouted, "Doctors!"
Two doctors in white coats ran over quickly and went forward to help.
At this moment, Zhang Jian's coughing suddenly slowed down and disappeared
He waved his hand and said, "There's no need. I'm fine now."
"Old Leader, for the sake of your health, it's better for you to have a physical examination first," said a short and thin doctor.
"It's just a cough. What's there to make a fuss about?!"
"Yes, Sir!"
The two doctors did not dare to say anything.
However, the atmosphere at the scene was not as relaxed as before. It became extremely solemn.
Everyone was worried about Zhang Jian's health.
At this moment, Lin Fan smiled and said, "Indeed, Elder Zhang is just coughing. There's no need to make a fuss about it. Just drink some water."
As he spoke, Lin Fan spent ten million yuan to buy Medical Water from the system and handed it to Zhang Jian.
The middle-aged man with the badge on his shoulder frowned slightly and took a step forward, looking like he wanted to say something.
"That's right!" Zhang Jian said casually. "I'll just drink some water and I'll be all better."
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand to receive the Medical Water and was about to pour it into his mouth.
"Old Leader, you can't!" The middle-aged man hurriedly dissuaded him. b𝚎dn𝚘v𝚎l.𝚌𝚘m
Then, he said to Lin Fan in a very strict tone, "What kind of water is this?"
Lin Fan understood that this was the responsibility of the middle-aged man.
Dedication to duty was the most basic requirement of a soldier, not to mention that he probably held a higher position.
Therefore, Lin Fan was not angry. He opened his mouth and prepared to explain.
However, Zhang Jian shouted, "What are you shouting for?! Isn't it just a small bottle of water?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he poured it into his mouth.
Gulp!
"Old Leader!" The middle-aged man widened his eyes and shouted.
Zhang Jian acted as if he did not hear him. He curled his lips and said, "It doesn't seem to have much taste. It can't compare to the Spirit Tea just now."
Then, he shouted, "Alright, I've drunk the tea and the water… Let's play two games of chess now!"
Lin Fan nodded his head and said, "Alright."
Qin Weiming shouted, "Lin Fan, don't hold back. You have to win him!"
As he spoke, he even rolled up his sleeves.
That appearance… it was as if he was going to fight someone.
"You're a junior, so you can start first," Zhang Jian said.
"Then I'll accept your offer," Lin Fan said.
"Fire the cannon!"
"Pegasus!"
The two of them moved the chess pieces quickly. It made a crisp sound when the chess pieces touched the surface of the board. It was like a hurried piece of music.
It had to be said that Zhang Jian's chess skills were indeed not bad.
At least… he was the strongest player Lin Fan had played with so far.
However, Zhang Jian had encountered… Lin Fan. He had Professional Chess Skills and Absolute Focus.
As the game progressed, Zhang Jian's reaction became slower and slower.
However, Lin Fan was getting faster and faster.
At this moment, Lin Fan moved the chess piece again and said, "General, dead chess piece!"
Zhang Jian was slightly stunned. Obviously, he had not thought of this move.
Qin Weiming, who was sitting beside him, laughed and said, "Hahaha! Good! Lin Fan played well! As expected, you didn't disappoint me! I didn't ask you to come here in vain!"
284 Stand Up; Toast!
Although Qin Weiming looked like a boorish old man, in fact, he had a clear mind and deep thoughts.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to lead his generals to defeat the enemy and obtain the final victory.
The reason why Qin Weiming kept praising Lin Fan was not just because Lin Fan was good at chess.
The most important reason was to emphasize that Lin Fan was one of them. This was to vouch for Lin Fan.
Zhang Jian was just like him. His identity was too unusual.
Although Zhang Jian drank the unknown liquid that Lin Fan took out, he was fine for the time being.
However, what if something happened later?
Would it act up later?
If that really happened, Lin Fan would be in a lot of trouble.
Even if nothing happened to Zhang Jian, Lin Fan would still be investigated.
Qin Weiming was protecting Lin Fan and taking responsibility for him.
This required great courage and trust!
Lin Fan naturally understood this logic. He could not help but have a better impression of Qin Weiming.
He also knew that Zhang Jian would not suffer any harm after drinking Medical Water and that there would only be endless benefits.
Zhang Jian also understood the meaning behind Qin Weiming's words. He snorted and said, "You old geezer, why are you wishing for me to die so quickly? Let me tell you, if it weren't for my legs, I would have dropped you on the ground right now."
As he spoke, he even lifted his legs forcefully.
Zhang Jian often did this kind of action.
However, there was no reaction from his legs each time.
Today, his legs were miraculously raised.
Zhang Jian's pale eyes immediately widened, and his face was filled with disbelief.
Just like that, his legs stopped in the air, and his body trembled slightly.
The middle-aged man with the badge on his shoulder also noticed this and quickly said to the doctors, "Quickly help the old leader take a look at his legs."
The two doctors were stunned for a moment. Then, they quickly went forward and gently massaged Zhang Jian's legs and took his pulse…
Soon, the two doctors were shocked.
The middle-aged man asked anxiously, "How's the old leader's legs?"
"There are too few instruments here. We need to conduct a more in-depth examination." The short and thin doctor hesitated.
"However, judging from the current situation, the old leader's legs may have a chance of recovery…"
Zhang Jian, however, directly threw his head back and laughed loudly. "There's no need for that. There's no problem with my legs! Hahaha!"
That was because Zhang Jian could stand up from his wheelchair. 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝐧𝐞𝘁
This scene stunned everyone present.
The eyes of the middle-aged man with the badge on his shoulder turned slightly red.
He had always been by Zhang Jian's side and knew very well how much this once all-powerful general wanted to stand up.
He had seen Zhang Jian looking at his own legs and secretly grieving. Zhang Jian had tried to stand up many times but fell to the ground in a sorry state each time. He had seen Zhang Jian lying on the ground and walking with his hands…
…
The middle-aged man grew up listening to Zhang Jian's legend. The person he admired the most was Zhang Jian.
It was also because of this that when he saw this hero in such a sorry state, he felt extremely aggrieved.
However, there was nothing he could do.
Now, Zhang Jian actually stood up!
Men did not shed tears easily, but it was only because they had not reached the point of sadness!
At this moment, Zhang Jian said in an extremely solemn tone, "Lin Fan, thank you!"
Everyone was stunned for a moment before they suddenly remembered the bottle of water.
Could it be…
Was it that small bottle of water that made Zhang Jian stand up?
Soon, Qin Weiming confirmed everyone's thoughts and laughed. "Old Zhang, you don't know how precious that bottle of water is! Even though Lin Fan is a member of the Dragon Division, he spent quite a bit of effort!"
Qin Weiming could not help but think of how Lin Fan had used the same solution to bring his grandson back from the gates of hell.
Looking at Lin Fan, he could not help but have a look of gratitude.
In reality, when Lin Fan took out a small bottle of unknown liquid for Zhang Jian to drink, many people present had shaken their heads secretly.
They thought to themselves, 'This young man is too rash.'
Some of them even started to distance themselves from Lin Fan to prevent themselves from being caught in an undeserved calamity.
At this moment, everyone looked at Lin Fan with surprise and envy.
They were surprised that Lin Fan was from the mysterious Dragon Division.
They were envious of Lin Fan for helping Zhang Jian stand up. In the future… he would definitely obtain great benefits!
Zhang Jian continued to stand for a while before he had no choice but to sit back in the wheelchair.
It had been too long since he had moved his legs.
If not for Medical Water, it would have been a fool's dream for him to stand up in this lifetime.
Then, Zhang Jian underwent a detailed examination at the request of the two doctors.
It was fine if they did not check, but after the examination, everyone was shocked again.
This was because Zhang Jian's necrotic legs had already completely recovered. As long as he did some rehabilitation exercises, he could walk freely like a normal person.
His body's indicators had all returned to normal at this moment!
This was simply… It was a miracle, a miracle!
…
The sun was setting.
The fiery red sun dyed the entire sky with a vibrant color, like a blooming flower. It was incomparably brilliant.
On the large table in the courtyard, there were more than 20 dishes of delicious food.
Under the request of Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian, Lin Fan sat at the head of the table.
"Lin Fan, let me give a toast to you first!" Qin Weiming picked up his wine glass and said.
"Elder Qin, what are you doing?" Zhang Jian immediately shouted. "Of course, I have to be the one to make the first toast! He made me stand up again!"
As he spoke, he also picked up his wine glass.
"He helped you stand up again, but he also saved my grandson's life!" Qin Weiming said.
"I must make the first toast!"
Zhang Jian and Qin Weiming were both the few remaining old leaders.
If someone were to receive a toast from them, no, even if they were to drink at the same table as them, they would definitely be overjoyed and brag about it for the rest of their lives.
Now, Zhang Jian and Qin Weiming were fighting to give a toast to Lin Fan!
Everyone present, including the leaders of Jiang Province and several men with badges on their shoulders, looked at Lin Fan with envy.
285 Showing off His Might; Birthday Banquet!
In the next few days, besides going to school, Lin Fan was often invited by Zhang Jian and Qin Weiming to play chess in the small courtyard. His days were relaxed and leisurely.
After a few days of recuperation, Zhang Jian could already stand up easily and walk a few steps at will.
His body was getting better and better, and his entire face was flushed. He often laughed non-stop.
At this moment, Lin Fan's phone vibrated slightly. It was a message from Hu Tian.
Hu Tian: [My grandfather is celebrating his birthday. Can I borrow you for two days and have you come to Sha City?]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan replied without hesitation.
[Alright, I'll go pick you up now.]
Hu Tian: [No need, I'm already in Sha City…]
Lin Fan nodded silently. No wonder Teacher Tiantian did not come to class these few days.
After Lin Fan and Hu Tian sent a few more messages, he brought a large box of Spirit Tea and placed it in the Mercedes-Benz G-Class before speeding toward the highway.
Sha City was located in Hu Province, while Jiangbei City was located in Jiang Province.
Although the two cities were located in different provinces, they were only a few hundred kilometers away from each other. It was convenient to drive there.
Lin Fan drove following the speed limit and arrived at Sha City in about three hours.
Then, he continued to drive according to the location Hu Tian had sent.
At this moment, an army-green jeep suddenly appeared in front of him.
A muscular man about 1.8 meters tall walked out.
He was surrounded by an aura similar to Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian.
He was a soldier!
The man walked to Lin Fan's window and said calmly, "You're Lin Fan?"
"Yes, and you are?" Lin Fan was a little confused.
"I'm Hu Tian's second brother, Hu Shaodong!" Hu Shaodong said.
Teacher Tiantian's second brother? Wasn't this his brother-in-law, then?
"Follow me, and don't get lost!" Hu Shaodong frowned.
His tone was not good.
However, Lin Fan was not angry.
After all, he had already won over Hu Tian.
If Lin Xiaoyao had a boyfriend and he was unfamiliar with him, he would probably not be nice to him either.
After Hu Shaodong finished speaking, he returned to the jeep.
Then, he stepped on the accelerator, and the whole car sped forward like a roaring beast.
"If you want to enter our family, you have to keep up with my speed!"
As Hu Shaodong spoke, he looked in the rearview mirror as if he wanted to see how far behind he had left Lin Fan.
However, at the next moment… Hu Shaodong was slightly stunned.
That was because the Mercedes-Benz that Lin Fan was driving was right behind him.
"He seems to be a good driver, but what about now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Shaodong stepped on the accelerator even harder.
Instantly, the jeep sped up again.
When he looked at the rearview mirror again, he realized that Lin Fan was still following closely behind him.
In fact, the distance between the two was the same as before. There was no change at all!
This… How was this possible?
Hu Shaodong was completely serious. He began to accelerate…
However, Lin Fan's Mercedes-Benz GG seemed to be one with Hu Shaodong's Jeep as he followed behind.
As Hu Shaodong continued to accelerate, he often looked in the rearview mirror. He did not notice that a car had broken down on the side of the road.
Hu Shaodong's expression changed slightly. In order to avoid the car, he turned the steering wheel hard, causing the Jeep to fall directly into the ditch beside him. The front cover hit a rock, and black smoke rose.
Lin Fan's reaction was very fast. He turned the car around and easily avoided the passing cars. He then stopped beside the Jeep.
Hu Shaodong got out of the car in a sorry state. When he saw Lin Fan standing beside him, his face darkened.
Originally, he had wanted to use his superb driving skills to leave Lin Fan far behind. Then, he would show Lin Fan that it was not easy to marry his sister.
The result?
In the end, not only did he fail to shake off Lin Fan, but he even got into a car accident.
This was simply… It was too embarrassing!
Lin Fan said, "I'll get someone to help you tow the car to repair it…"
"No need. Someone will come to deal with it later," Hu Shaodong said.
At this moment, the phone in Hu Shaodong's pocket vibrated slightly.
He looked at the message and frowned. He began to pace around.
"Take my car," Lin Fan said. "Let's go home first."
Even though Hu Shaodong did not want to sit in the same car as Lin Fan…
After all, it would be surrendering to Lin Fan.
However, he thought of the WeChat message just now…
"Alright."
After Hu Shaodong got into the Mercedes-Benz, he crossed his arms and shut his mouth tightly.
Regarding this…
Lin Fan was happy to be quiet.
About half an hour later, a spacious courtyard appeared in front of them.
There were two sentries standing at the entrance of the courtyard. They were strict and solemn, making people afraid to approach them.
If an ordinary person saw this scene, they would probably be shocked.
Hu Shaodong glanced at Lin Fan as if he wanted to see such a reaction from him too.
However, he was destined to be disappointed.
Lin Fan's expression was still very relaxed and calm.
It was as if he was returning to his own home.
In fact, this was normal to Lin Fan.
After all, Lin Fan often went to Qin Weiming's and Zhang Jian's residences.
The defense there… was several times stricter than here!
After the sentry finished checking, Lin Fan stepped on the accelerator and drove inside.
At this moment, there were many Audis and military green Jeeps parked in the courtyard at the back.
In front of the courtyard, there was a huge longevity peach and many longevity buns. The word 'longevity' could be seen everywhere on a red background.
A group of men and women in formal attire were standing together and chatting with each other.
At this moment, Hu Tian walked out from inside.
Hu Tian was wearing a red lace dress today. Her beautiful face was outlined with light makeup. Her long black hair was tied up high, and she wore a pair of silver high heels.
Gentle and generous like a noble princess.
Although there were many people between Hu Tian and Lin Fan, they still saw each other at the first moment.
Hu Tian walked over with a smile and said, "You're here?"
"Yes, I'm here," Lin Fan said.
Then, Hu Tian held Lin Fan's arm generously.
At this moment, another army-green Jeep stopped steadily in the courtyard.
Then, there was a commotion.
"Young Master Huang!" 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩
"Hello, Young Master Huang!"
"Young Master Huang, long time no see!"
286 Fake; Congratulations!
Huang Tian listened to everyone's greetings and nodded slightly. He then walked forward arrogantly and indifferently.
Not only did they not get angry, but they also followed behind Huang Tian like pugs.
In the next moment…
Huang Tian's footsteps suddenly stopped. His hawk-like eyes narrowed slightly and locked onto Hu Tian and Lin Fan, who was holding onto her.
At this moment, a vigorous voice suddenly sounded from afar.
"Thank you, everyone, for coming to my birthday banquet."
Then, an old man wearing a Tang suit with gray hair walked into the courtyard.
When everyone saw him, they cupped their fists and said, "Hello, Old Master Hu!"
"Greetings, Old Master Hu!"
Clearly, this old man was the birthday boy today and Hu Tian's grandfather, Hu Nanshan!
A man in a suit carried a gift box and said, "I wish Old Master Hu good fortune and longevity!"
Hu Nanshan accepted the gift and smiled.
With the first person starting, the people behind also took out their gifts and said their blessings.
"I wish Old Master Hu a happy life!"
"I wish Old Master Hu a long and healthy life."
"I wish Old Master Hu a long life, happiness, and health!"
…
Finally, Huang Tian took a step forward and said, "I wish Old Master Hu good luck and eternal health!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he slowly walked forward with a beautifully packaged box that was about one meter long.
The short and skinny man who had been following behind Huang Tian like a pug said in surprise, "What gift is this? It's actually so long…"
"I know that Old Master Hu likes to study calligraphy and painting," Huang Tian said. "Not long ago, I happened to get an authentic painting by Tang Bohu, 'Spring Tree Autumn Frost'. So, I brought it here to give it to Old Master Hu."
Tang Bohu!
Spring Tree Autumn Frost!
It was simply too famous.
Therefore, even though everyone in the courtyard was either rich or noble, at this moment, they could not help but exclaim in admiration.
"It's actually that painting!"
"As expected of Young Master Huang!"
"What a big deal!"
…
Just as Huang Tian had said, Hu Nanshan did like to study calligraphy and painting.
When he heard that this was Tang Bohu's Spring Tree Autumn Frost, his turbid eyes could not help but light up.
Then, he laughed heartily and said, "Good, good! Hahaha! I've admired this painting for a long time. Today, I have to appreciate it properly!"
As he spoke, he opened the box and slowly unfolded the painting inside.
Everyone present raised their heads and looked at the painting with curiosity. Their eyes were filled with admiration.
Immediately, someone praised, "Green mountains, flowing springs… As expected of Tang Bohu's authentic work, this painting is simply too good!"
"Not bad!"
"This is the first time I've seen such a beautiful painting!"
Hu Nanshan looked at the painting in his hands and nodded repeatedly, feeling extremely satisfied.
Lin Fan shook his head slightly, revealing a look of disdain.
This was normal…
That was because Lin Fan remembered very clearly that the real Spring Tree Autumn Frost was lying in his Coiling Dragon Villa.
If he had known that Teacher Tiantian's grandfather liked calligraphy and paintings, he would have brought it along.
One had to know that Lin Fan had obtained Spring Tree Autumn Frost from a red packet. There was no way it was fake.
In that case, the painting in front of him was clearly fake.
Furthermore, Lin Fan still had the Eyes of True Sight.
Huang Tian saw Lin Fan's actions and expressions.
Contempt?
Was he looking down on the painting that he had given the old master?
Huang Tian was already filled with hostility toward Lin Fan. At this moment, he finally exploded.
"What do you mean by shaking your head like this?" Huang Tian said coldly.
Instantly, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Fan.
When they saw Lin Fan and Hu Tian holding hands, they immediately understood something.
Facing so many gazes, Lin Fan's expression was calm as he said, "Isn't it normal to shake your head when a counterfeit item is being gifted?"
Everyone immediately started discussing.
"Counterfeit?"
"Is he talking about Spring Tree Autumn Frost?"
"It shouldn't be… It can't be."
…
Huang Tian's face sank as he shouted, "This is not a place for you to spout nonsense!"
"My greatest strength is telling the truth," Lin Fan said.
Following that, he used the Eyes of True Sight on the painting and carefully examined it.
Instantly, Lin Fan could clearly see how this painting was copied, made old, and marked five years ago.
Lin Fan said, "Look carefully at the bottom left corner of this painting. Is there a small letter A?"
Everyone… Even Hu Nanshan could not help but follow Lin Fan's words and look at the bottom left corner.
Soon, someone shouted, "There really is an A on the paper!"
"Yes, I think I see it!"
One had to know…
Tang Bohu was a talented scholar in the Tang Dynasty. At that time, there were no English letters at all.
The authenticity of this painting was immediately clear.
Huang Tian's face instantly turned extremely ugly.
He had always thought that this was a real painting.
Otherwise, he would not have given it to Hu Nanshan as a birthday gift.
Huang Tian took a deep breath and tried his best to calm himself down before saying, "Old Master Hu, I didn't investigate this matter properly. I'm sorry, I actually brought a fake…I'll give you another birthday gift later."
Hu Nanshan waved his hand and said, "There's no need to apologize. You were also deceived by others. In addition, I like this painting very much. As for… It doesn't matter if it's the authentic work of Tang Bohu. or not"
Then, he slowly put the painting back into the gift box.
Although he said that, his attitude toward this painting was clearly not as enthusiastic as before.
The short and thin man who had been following behind Huang Tian rolled his eyes and said, "You're my cousin's friend, right? I wonder what gift you brought for the old master today?"
He had already made preparations. Everything would be fine as long as Lin Fan's gift was a little lacking. be𝚍𝚗𝚘ve𝚕.c𝚘𝚖
Then, he would attack crazily to please Huang Tian.
Lin Fan did not say much. He opened the Mercedes-Benz and took out a large box of tea leaves from the trunk.
"I wish Old Master Hu good fortune, good health, and a long life!"
Seeing this…
The short and thin man could not help but laugh out loud. "Tea leaves? What a big box! Moreover, there's no packaging. Could it be that this tea was bought in bulk from a stall?"
"Cousin Hu Tian, this friend of yours… How generous! Haha!"
287 Lousy Tea Leaves?
Seeing this…
Many people present began to discuss in low voices.
Although Hu Nanshan was not a greedy person, at this moment, he could not help but frown.
From the actions of his granddaughter, Hu Tian, Lin Fan should be the boyfriend she was talking about.
Hu Tian's boyfriend, his future grandson-in-law… bought a box of tea leaves from a roadside stall as a birthday gift to him?
Was he not taking him too lightly?
With so many guests present, was it not laughable?
At this moment, an Audi A6 drove over from afar and stopped steadily in front of the courtyard.
Then, a middle-aged man with slightly white hair who looked to be about 50 years old walked over with his head held high.
When everyone saw him, they immediately revealed a hint of admiration and exclaimed.
"Commander Liu!"
"That's right, Commander Liu is here!"
…
Hu Nanshan frowned slightly and went up to Liu Qiming personally.
Liu Qiming quickened his pace and handed over a gift. "I wish Old Master Hu good fortune and longevity!
"This is the gift my father chose for you. Originally, he wanted to come personally to congratulate you on your birthday, but it's a little inconvenient with his body. He could only let me do it on his behalf. I hope you won't blame him."
"Why would I blame him?" Hu Nanshan's face was flushed. "Elder Liu's health is more important. If he really did come, I'm afraid there'd be no peace at my birthday banquet."
If the surviving elders of Hua Nation were to be arranged in a seating order, Elder Liu might not even be able to sit in the first row.
However, he would definitely have a seat in the second row.
It was definitely a rare thing for Elder Liu to personally choose a birthday gift and ask Liu Qiming to visit him.
Hu Nanshan and Liu Qiming chatted as they walked, occasionally letting out peals of hearty laughter.
When Liu Qiming passed by Lin Fan, he stopped in his tracks, and his face was filled with shock.
He was all too familiar with Lin Fan.
However, the leader suddenly received a phone call saying that Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian had arrived in Jiangbei City.
Therefore, the leader brought him to meet the two old men.
Liu Qiming remembered clearly how Qin Weiming praised Lin Fan before he arrived.
At that time, he was extremely curious about Lin Fan. 𝗯𝗲𝗱𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗲𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
When Lin Fan made Old Master Zhang Jian drink a bottle of the solution and made him stand up, Liu Qiming was deeply impressed by Old Master Zhang Jian's happy expression.
Liu Qiming also knew that Lin Fan was a member of the Dragon Division and that he had saved the life of Qin Weiming's grandson.
At the same time, he was the benefactor of Old Master Qin Weiming and Old Master Zhang Jian… Lin Fan's future was definitely limitless.
Liu Qiming had always wanted to befriend Lin Fan, but he did not have the chance.
He did not expect to meet him here.
Hu Nanshan did not notice the change in Liu Qiming's expression. He said to him, "There's still some time before the banquet. Let's sit down and have some tea first."
Speaking of tea, Liu Qiming could not help but think of the Spirit Tea that Lin Fan had given Old Master Qin Weiming and Old Master Zhang Jian.
Just thinking about the taste of Spirit Tea, he seemed to have smelled that unique fragrance. His entire person could not help but feel much more comfortable.
"Shaodong, go and get the Da Hong Pao tea and the purple clay teapot from my room," continued Hu Nanshan.
"Okay, Grandpa," Hu Shaodong said.
The short and thin man standing at the side took the opportunity to shout, "Why is this box of trash tea still here? It's an eyesore. Throw it aside quickly."
As the short man spoke, Liu Qiming finally noticed the large box of green tea leaves in front of Lin Fan.
Seeing this…
Liu Qiming's pupils constricted. Spirit Tea!
That was right!
After drinking it, his entire body… No! His entire soul was cleansed!
No wonder he seemed to have smelled the fragrance of Spirit Tea just now!
It was not an illusion!
Old Master Qin Weiming and Old Master Zhang Jian became like two children, constantly quarreling over the two small bags of Spirit Tea…
Here… there was a whole box!
This…
This…
If Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian were here, what would their expressions be?
At this moment, Liu Qiming suddenly noticed the short and thin man. He was about to kick the Spirit Tea aside like a piece of trash.
Kicking the Spirit Tea?
He wanted to kick the Spirit Tea that Old Master Qin and Old Master Zhang Jian treated as a treasure?
"What are you doing?!" Liu Qiming shouted.
On the one hand, Liu Qiming did have a strong family background.
However, the most important reason was that he had excellent personal ability.
He was strict and iron-blooded!
He alone could suppress hundreds of warriors, making them fear him.
Now, Liu Qiming was shouting at the short and thin man. One could imagine how powerful he was.
At this moment…
The short and thin man seemed to have shrunk into an ant.
Meanwhile, Liu Qiming turned into a roaring lion.
The lion king roared, making everyone tremble.
The short and thin man felt his entire body go limp as cold sweat rolled down his back.
He stammered, "I… I… I… It's not a big deal to throw lousy tea leaves…"
He stammered for a long time before finally speaking.
It was fine if he did not say anything. After he said it, it angered Liu Qiming again.
"Hmph!" A muffled groan sounded out. It was extremely vicious, causing the short and skinny man to feel a chill down his spine.
At this moment, another army green Jeep sped over.
Then, Yue Zixiao strode over.
When Lin Fan caught sight of him, his face revealed a look of surprise.
That was because Yue Zixiao had always been by Qin Weiming's side. In Lin Fan's impression, Yue Zixiao seemed to only leave Qin Weiming's side when he drove him home.
He did not expect him to come to Sha City.
…
When the crowd saw Yue Zixiao, there was another round of discussion.
…
In contrast to the doubts of many people, Hu Nanshan's heart skipped a beat. He quickly went up to him.
Yue Zixiao was also a commander!
More importantly, he was the head guard of Qin Weiming.
Old Master Qin Weiming could sit in the first row.
To a certain extent, Yue Zixiao could represent Old Master Qin Weiming.
How could Hu Nanshan not be excited?
Yue Zixiao's words surprised Hu Nanshan even more.
"Old Leader Qin Weiming and Old Leader Zhang Jian asked me to wish Old Master Hu a happy birthday and good health!"
Not only Old Master Qin Weiming, but even Old Master Zhang Jian wanted to congratulate him?!
When Hu Nanshan heard Yue Zixiao's words, he was so happy that his face turned red, and his breathing became rapid.
288 Remove Your Stinky Foot; Why Did You Throw It Away?!
In fact, Hu Nanshan was not the only one who was excited.
The entire scene was in an uproar.
Most of the people present had red bloodlines.
It was because of this that everyone understood the weight of Qin Weiming's and Zhang Jian's names.
It could be said that Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian were the two pillars of Hua Nation.
Now, they actually personally sent someone to congratulate Old Master Hu. What kind of honor was this?
Some people were speculating in their hearts. Could it be that the Hu family had gotten in touch with these two old men?
If it was really like this, the Hu family was probably going to soar into the sky.
However, no one knew that Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian had asked Yue Zixiao to come to congratulate Old Master Hu on his birthday because of a phone call with Lin Fan not long ago.
Originally, Qin Weiming wanted Lin Fan to play chess with him in the courtyard.
However, Lin Fan said that he had to go to Sha City because his girlfriend's grandfather was celebrating his 80th birthday.
Whether it was the Medical Water that Lin Fan brought out or the Spirit Tea that he gave them… He was worth getting closer to.
Additionally, Lin Fan saved the life of Qin Weiming's grandson and helped Zhang Jian stand up. They had to be friends.
Therefore, Zhang Jian and Qin Weiming decided to congratulate Lin Fan's girlfriend's grandfather.
However, with their status, it was absolutely impossible for them to suddenly go to Sha City.
Their safety was not guaranteed.
The last time when Qin Weiming went to Qing City to celebrate Lin Fan's grandfather's birthday, he had prepared it for a long time.
Then, with the company of the leaders of Jiang Province, Jiangbei City, and Qing City, he finally had a chance.
It was not that they were afraid of death.
What a joke that would be…
Back then, when they were bombarded with bullets and cannons, they never frowned even once.
It was because of the rules.
What they represented was not just their own lives.
…
Hu Nanshan naturally did not know about this. After he heard Yue Zixiao's words, he was so excited that he could not help but tremble. "Please thank the old leaders for me!"
Then, he quickly asked, "Are the two old leaders well?"
Yue Zixiao nodded, "Everything is fine."
"That's good, that's good!" Hu Nanshan said happily.
Following that, Yue Zixiao took out two scrolls of calligraphy and said, "These are the congratulatory gifts from Old Leader Qin Weiming and Old Leader Zhang Jian."
The calligraphy from Old Master Qin Weiming and Old Master Zhang Jian!
What kind of honor was this?
Even if the painting that Huang Tian had given him was authentic, it was far from comparable to these two scrolls.
Hu Nanshan's cloudy eyes blurred with excitement. "Please… Please thank the old leaders!"
Then, he carefully accepted the scrolls.
At this moment, Yue Zixiao saw Lin Fan and Liu Qiming standing not far away and walked over.
As soon as he got close, a special fragrance floated into Yue Zixiao's nose and mouth.
Yue Zixiao often asked about this fragrance these days, the fragrance of Spirit Tea!
Soon, his gaze landed on the huge box of Spirit Tea in front of Lin Fan, as well as the foot that was about to kick the box over.
Yue Zixiao was very clear about how precious Spirit Tea was to Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian. They even wanted to hug the Spirit Tea when they slept.
Now… It was actually going to be kicked over like trash?
Yue Zixiao shouted, "Remove your stinky foot!"
If Liu Qiming was like a roaring lion, Yue Zixiao was like a soaring dragon.
The short and thin man was so frightened that he fell to the ground. The box of Spirit Tea was finally safe.
Seeing this…
Yue Zixiao grunted. Then, he turned his attention back to Lin Fan and nodded his head gently.
Although the two of them did not speak, this slight nod showed that they knew each other.
Hu Nanshan was slightly shocked. Lin Fan… Was he not just a student?
How did he know Yue Zixiao?
It seemed like… he was not as simple as he thought.
At this moment, Hu Shaodong brought the purple clay teapot and Da Hong Pao over.
"General Yue, General Liu, please sit down and have some tea." Hu Nanshan cleared his throat."
Liu Qiming and Yue Zixiao… Both of them had taken such a fancy to the tea leaves that Lin Fan had given him.
Out of curiosity, Hu Nanshan did not use Da Hong Pao to make tea. Instead, he used the loose tea leaves in the box.
First, he quietly looked at the loose tea leaves, but he did not find anything special.
With a trace of doubt, he casually grabbed a handful of tea leaves and placed them into the purple clay teapot before pouring in an appropriate amount of boiling water.
Then, he habitually poured the boiling water that was mixed with tea leaves into the trash can beside him.
"Why did you throw it away?!"
Almost at the same time, Liu Qiming and Yue Zixiao shouted in unison.
Liu Qiming knew how delicious Spirit Tea was.
Yue Zixiao knew that even Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian cherished every drop of tea, especially the first cup.
Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian named the first cup 'First Tea'.
In fact, they often fought over the first cup of tea!
Hu Nanshan naturally did not know about this. He was at a loss and said, "I… I… I'm just washing the tea."
He recalled his actions and steps again. There did not seem to be any problems.
Was it not normal to wash the tea before drinking it?
Liu Qiming and Yue Zixiao shook their heads slightly and did not say anything.
Now that the first cup of tea had been poured into the trash can, they could not take it out of the trash can, right?
Hu Nanshan poured the boiling water into the teapot again.
After a while, he poured the tea.
"General Liu, General Yue, please."
The two of them did not stand on ceremony, or rather, they could not wait any longer.
After drinking the Spirit Tea, Yue Zixiao's and Liu Qiming's faces revealed an expression of enjoyment that was difficult to hide.
Seeing this…
Hu Nanshan could not help but pour the tea into his mouth curiously.
Whoosh!
Hu Nanshan was 80 years old. His body was like a rusty machine that could not function normally.
After drinking the tea, the rust on his body seemed to have disappeared completely. His entire body glowed with a brilliant light as if he had come back to life and was extremely relaxed.
He had never tasted such delicious tea leaves before!
However, before Hu Nanshan could praise it, Yue Zixiao, who was next to him, spoke first.
"This is my first time drinking the second cup of this tea. The taste is indeed amazing!" be𝚍𝚗𝚘ve𝚕.c𝚘𝚖
Then, Yue Zixiao looked at the large box of spirit tea beside him and turned to Lin Fan. "When the two old leaders learned that your girlfriend's grandfather was celebrating his birthday, they wanted to come over personally to congratulate him.
"However, there was no time to arrange it, so I came to congratulate him on their behalf.
"Luckily, they didn't come. If they did, I wonder how jealous they'd be after seeing such a big box of Spirit Tea."
The moment he said that, everyone fell silent!
289 Different Thoughts; Lin Fan's Identities!
The two old leaders were Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian.
Who were Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian?
They were the top pillars of existence!
What did everyone hear?
These two huge pillars actually sent their regards because of Lin Fan. This young man, who looked to be in his 20s, got the two powerhouses to congratulate his girlfriend's grandfather on his birthday!
This young man… He actually had such a great reputation?
Who exactly was he?
Initially, Hu Nanshan wanted to praise the tea, but at this moment, the words seemed to be stuck in his throat. His brain completely shut down.
For a moment, he even forgot what the taste of the tea leaves he had just drunk was.
Hu Nanshan had just thought that his granddaughter's boyfriend was not simple.
Looking at it now, he was very not simple!
When Hu Nanshan found out that his granddaughter had a boyfriend and that he was just an ordinary university student, he was shocked.
Hu Nanshan's first reaction was that he was not suitable for her. He should think of a way to make his granddaughter give up on Lin Fan.
At this moment, Hu Nanshan had thrown this thought far to the back of his mind.
In its place…
He was wondering when his granddaughter could marry Lin Fan and when they could have children.
Hu Shaodong, who was standing beside him, was also stunned.
What did he hear?
Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian, the great pillars of the country, wanted to personally come to congratulate his grandfather on his birthday because of Lin Fan!
He had actually wanted to give him a show of strength just now…
This…
This…
Hu Tian's face revealed a look of surprise.
However, she did not expect Lin Fan to have such a deep relationship with Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian.
Perhaps Liu Qiming was the only one who looked more natural.
After all, he had long known that Lin Fan saved Qin Weiming's grandson's life and even helped Zhang Jian stand up.
Now, Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian wanted to congratulate Lin Fan's girlfriend's grandfather on his birthday. It was reasonable, right?
…
After Lin Fan heard Yue Zixiao's words, he could not help but rub his nose and smile. "Old Master Qin and Old Master Zhang don't have to be jealous. In the future, they'll have enough Spirit Tea."
Lin Fan had always been a person who repaid kindness with kindness.
Since Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian gave him face, and Lin Fan had a good impression of the two old men… 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
Naturally, Lin Fan would not be stingy.
Yue Zixiao said seriously, "If the two old leaders heard your words, they would definitely be very happy!"
Then, Lin Fan raised his head and looked around.
When the short and skinny man who had just gotten up noticed Lin Fan looking at him, he collapsed onto the ground again.
What kind of stupid thing did he just do?!
Even Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian had to respect this young man, yet he was mocking him just now.
The short and skinny man understood that he was… done for!
…
As for Huang Tian, who was the center of attention earlier… When he noticed Lin Fan's gaze on him, his forehead and back could not help but break out in a layer of sweat.
His heart was filled with regret.
Why did he want to compete with Lin Fan for Hu Tian? Why did he show hostility toward Lin Fan and even berate him?
At this moment, someone walked over and said to Hu Nanshan, "Old Master, the birthday banquet is ready."
Hu Nanshan nodded slightly. Then, his gaze fell on the Spirit Tea in the big box.
At this moment, he no longer had the disgust he had when he saw the large box of loose tea leaves.
Now, he looked like a treasure hunter who had finally found treasure. His turbid eyes faintly lit up.
Hu Nanshan seriously said, "Shaodong, you put this box of good tea in my room. No one is allowed to casually touch it."
Even Qin Weiming and Zhang Jian would be jealous when they saw this box of tea leaves.
One could imagine how precious it was!
When Hu Nanshan noticed Liu Qiming and Yue Zixiao staring at the tea leaves in the box, he could not help but continue, "In addition, get two bags later and give some to General Liu and General Yue."
When Liu Qiming and Yue Zixiao heard this, their faces revealed a smile that was difficult to hide.
…
Today's birthday banquet was not held in a hotel. Instead, it was held in an empty square in the courtyard.
At this moment, the square was already filled with tables.
According to seniority, Lin Fan and Hu Tian should be sitting three tables behind.
However, they were asked to sit at the first table. They were even asked to sit next to the birthday boy, Hu Nanshan.
The birthday boy was the main character today, so he should be the focus.
However, today, more people had their attention on Lin Fan.
Hu Nanshan also felt this, but he was not angry. On the contrary, he was even happier.
The banquet lasted for a full three hours before it slowly came to an end.
…
The sky gradually darkened.
Hu Tian and Lin Fan strolled leisurely in the green courtyard.
At this moment, Hu Tian suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked at Lin Fan with a smile.
Lin Fan asked, "Is there something dirty on my face?"
"No." Hu Tian shook her head.
"Then what are you looking at?" Lin Fan asked.
"I'm trying to see how many other shocking identities you have," Hu Tian said.
"There are many possibilities. A professional racer, a professional pianist, a calligraphy expert, the richest man in the world…" Lin Fan said.
Hu Tian nodded in understanding.
"You believe me?" Lin Fan asked.
"Since you said it, it must be true!" Hu Tian said."
Lin Fan said, "But these identities aren't the most important."
Hu Tian blinked her eyelashes and looked at Lin Fan curiously.
Lin Fan smiled, "My most important identity is your boyfriend."
When Hu Tian heard this, her pretty face blushed slightly.
She was a mathematics professor at Jiangbei University and Lin Fan's teacher.
However, at this moment, she felt like a little girl who had just eaten candy. Her mouth and heart were filled with sweetness.
Moonlight shone on Hu Tianlong's body, making her glow.
The two of them looked at each other affectionately and slowly approached each other.
Finally, they could not help but embrace each other.

291 Smells Good; Interested!
When Adivan walked out of the airport, he looked at the tall buildings and wide roads in the distance and muttered, "Hua Nation… seems different from the movies and news."
"It's not just different!" Jeffrey said. "This is only Jiangbei, a first-tier city in Hua Nation, but I think it's not much different from Seattle.
"Especially the food here. It's definitely better than anywhere else in America."
Speaking of food, Jeffrey could not help but gulp. He said excitedly, "Let's go, I'll take you to eat the local delicacies!"
Adivan waved his hand. "No thanks. I've been on the plane for the whole day. I'm a little dizzy. I can't eat any food right now.
!
"I just want to go to the hotel as soon as possible and have a good rest."
"There's a gourmet restaurant near the hotel," Jeffrey said while pulling him. "Just keep me company."
After a while, they arrived at a restaurant serving local delicacies.
Looking at the colorful dishes and smelling the alluring fragrance in the air, Adivan finally could not help but scoop a spoonful of food into his mouth.
Instantly, his eyes lit up.
Then, Adivan's entire head was buried in the bowl, and his mouth was full of grease.
Jeffrey looked at the food in his bowl and said, "Adivan, didn't you say you wouldn't eat?"
Adivan said, "It tastes so good."
…
There were many foreigners like Jeffrey and Adivan.
They were all here for Lin Fan's Hail Conjecture Report.
In order to welcome their arrival, the campus of Jiangbei University was redecorated with greenery and flowers. Some of the old buildings had also been repainted to make them look brand new.
This was not because they thought too highly of foreigners.
Instead, it was to better showcase Jiangbei University's reputation and promote Jiangbei University to the world through the great scholars and professors who came to attend the report. It was also to reduce the smearing of Hua Nation by some Western media.
Lin Fan walked along the winding path of the campus. As a breeze blew past, he could not help but smell an elegant fragrance.
Lin Fan slowly turned around and realized that Hu Tian had walked to his side.
"Dean Hu Chuan asked me to look for you. I didn't expect to meet you in the blink of an eye." Hu Tian smiled.
Lin Fan was puzzled. "What's the matter?"
Hu Tian smiled and said, "Of course, it's because of tomorrow's report. He asked me to remind you that it will officially start at 9 AM tomorrow."
No wonder Hu Chuan was so nervous.
After all, Lin Fan had a precedent.
Lin Fan was half an hour late for the report last time. He almost made a fool of himself.
For this report, regardless of the scale or the number of people… it was bigger and higher than the last time.
Hu Chuan did not dare to have any more accidents.
Lin Fan said, "So it's about this. I'm already aware."
At this moment, many of the documents that Hu Tian was holding in her arms fell to the ground.
Lin Fan bent down to pick them up and realized that they were filled with complicated mathematical calculations.
Lin Fan asked casually, "Are you researching something?"
"Hodge Conjecture. Are you interested in studying it?"Hu Tian asked.
After saying this, Hu Tian's beautiful eyes flickered faintly.
That appearance… She seemed to believe that as long as Lin Fan said he was interested in it, the Hodge Conjecture would be solved very quickly.
In Hu Tian's eyes, Lin Fan had become an omnipotent person.
It was no wonder that she had such thoughts. Lin Fan was simply too extraordinary.
First, he solved Zhou's Conjecture, then he solved the Twin Prime Number Conjecture.
Then, it was the Hail Conjecture.
Not long ago, Hu Tian suddenly realized that Lin Fan had a deep relationship with Zhang Jian and Qin Weiming.
Gradually…
In Hu Tian's heart, Lin Fan's figure seemed to be 10,000 feet tall. He emitted a dazzling light and had omnipotent power.
Lin Fan looked at Hu Tian's expectant gaze and could not help but rub his nose. He was about to say that he was not interested.
However, in his mind… Suddenly, a crisp notification sounded.
[Ding! You've triggered a mission—solve Hodge Conjecture. Reward: Five golden packets.]
Seeing this…
Lin Fan's words were stuck in his throat, and he could not say anything.
Then, he said, "Yes… I'm interested."
After all, these were five golden packets. He definitely could not miss out on them!
When Hu Tian heard this, her beautiful eyes immediately lit up.
Then, Hu Tian brought Lin Fan to her office to carefully study the Hodge Conjecture. bed𝚗o𝚟𝚎𝚕.𝚌𝚘m
It had to be said that the Hodge Conjecture was indeed one of the most difficult problems of the millennium. Even though Lin Fan had Professor-Level Mathematics Experience and Absolute Focus…
It was impossible to solve it in a short period of time.
As the sky gradually darkened, there was not much progress in solving the Hodge Conjecture.
In order to do more in-depth research, Hu Tian brought Lin Fan to her house.
Perhaps it was because the discussion was too fascinating and exciting, Lin Fan and Hu Tian did not sleep the entire night. The entire building shook the entire night.
…
The next day, the sky was clear.
The fiery red sun rose slowly, setting off the colorful flowers placed at the entrance of Jiangbei University. It formed a beautiful scene of heaven and earth.
Bright banners were hung on the campus of Jiangbei University.
[A warm welcome to all scholars and professors attending Lin Fan's Hail Conjecture Report!]
[Welcome to Jiangbei University!]
As soon as the foreign mathematics professors and experts arrived at Jiangbei University, they were invited into the auditorium by the teachers and volunteers who were already waiting at the entrance.
Adivan looked at the surging crowd in the auditorium and sighed. "Many old friends have come."
"Yes, after all, everyone wants to witness history," Jeffries said.
Adivan shook his head and did not continue.
It was because he had never thought of witnessing history here.
The only thing he wanted to do was to personally see Lin Fan, this mathematics genius, and how he would explain the Hail Conjecture.
…
At this moment, Hu Chuan, the dean of the mathematics department of Jiangbei University, was also sighing.
He had never thought that the mathematics department of Jiangbei University, which he was in charge of, would hold a world-class report. Moreover, it was held twice in a very short period of time.
The associate director looked at his watch several times and said worriedly, "Lin Fan isn't here yet. Is he going to be late again?"
Hu Chuan's heart tightened slightly as he said, "It should be… It can't be.
292 Report; Anticipation!
Just as Hu Chuan was worried, muffled footsteps came from outside.
Groups of old professors wearing thick glasses chatted as they moved forward and quickly found their own positions.
Professor Barnington, who was sitting at the front, looked at the crowd in the auditorium and sighed. "There seem to be more people than last time."
Professor Lancelot said, "After all, there are more people interested in the Hail Conjecture than Zhou's Conjecture."
!
Professor Lancelot paused and said, "Do you think his solution to the conjecture is correct?"
"At least, I didn't find any obvious problems," Barnington said. "Of course, we'll have to see the details of his report. However, I'm full of expectations for him."
Lancelot nodded in understanding. Then, he looked at the pocket watch hanging around his neck and said, "It's almost time."
Barnington's expression became even more expectant.
…
Compared to Barnington's anticipation, Hu Chuan's face was filled with anxiety.
Lin Fan had not come!
He saw that the report was about to start, but Lin Fan had not come. It was just like last time!
What should he do?
Therefore, Hu Chuan had no choice but to let the school leader go on stage first. He tried his best to say some superficial words to stall for time.
Then, he quickly picked up his phone and dialed Lin Fan's number.
The phone rang for a long time, but no one picked up, just like last time.
Hu Chuan listened to the gradually dissatisfied voices of many mathematics experts in the auditorium and could not help but feel anxious.
Then, Hu Chuan picked up his phone and called Lin Fan's counselor, Sun Yaodong, and Lin Fan's roommate, Song Yi.
However, they did not know where Lin Fan was.
Even so, Hu Chuan did not give up. He continued to make calls.
When he called Hu Tian, he finally received good news.
Hu Tian said, "Lin Fan and I stayed up to study Hodge Conjecture yesterday… We woke up a little late, but we're already on our way over. We'll arrive in ten minutes."
After she finished speaking, her pretty face blushed.
After hanging up the phone, Hu Chuan walked quickly to the stage and said in fluent English, "Lin Fan was studying the Hodge Conjecture last night and lost track of time. Please forgive him. He's on his way."
Originally, many people were already unhappy because the main speaker, Lin Fan, did not arrive on time.
However, after hearing Hu Chuan's explanation, everyone's dissatisfaction instantly disappeared.
Instead, they only had endless expectations.
Many people started discussing in low voices.
"Do you think he wants to solve a math problem during the report?"
"How is that possible? That's the Hodge Conjecture we're talking about! It's one of the most difficult problems of the millennium!"
"However, his spirit is indeed commendable. He's just solved the Hail Conjecture and immediately threw himself into a new difficult problem."
"If I remember correctly, he has already solved Zhou's Conjecture and the Twin Prime Number Conjecture, right? Including Hail Conjecture, he's already solved three difficult problems… Now, he's targeting the Hodge Conjecture? Is he still human?"
…
At this moment, footsteps sounded from outside the corridor.
Creak!
The doors of the auditorium were slowly pushed open.
Then, Lin Fan and Hu Tian finally walked in side by side.
Instantly, everyone's eyes were focused on Lin Fan.
The mathematics experts noticed that Lin Fan was not in a good state of mind. His dark circles were a little heavy.
Everyone could not help but exclaim, "Indeed, there's a reason why Lin Fan could solve so many math problems at such a young age!"
It was all because of his hard work!
Even though he was going to give a large-scale report in front of more than half of the world's famous mathematicians today, he still seized every second last night to challenge new problems.
What kind of rare quality was this?!
All the experts silently gave Lin Fan a thumbs-up and clapped.
Lin Fan naturally did not know what the mathematicians were thinking.
He did not care about the applause at all.
He had already had the experience of holding a report, so he was even more relaxed this time.
Lin Fan spoke into the microphone in fluent Hua Nation language, "Hello everyone, I'm Lin Fan."
Then, he picked up a pen and wrote on the electronic whiteboard… He quickly wrote down the clearest and most understandable solution to Hail Conjecture.
X1=1,X2=(3X1+3)/2^1=3
X1=3,X2=(3X3+3)/2^2=3
…
Everyone present was a mathematics expert. Many of them had studied the Hail Conjecture for many years, and Lin Fan's calculations were very detailed.
Therefore, many people could understand the steps.
As time passed, Lin Fan's writing speed became faster and faster. The pen and the electronic writing board kept colliding, making a rapid and violent sound, like a pleasant symphony.
n=2m,fm(n)=1(m"N)
…
Xs+1=(3Xs+1)/2 ^n!
Hail Conjecture was proven to be successful!
It was perfect!
No one had ever seen such a perfect calculation!
There was not a single flaw!
Originally, some people had planned to pick on him during the report.
However, at this moment, they found that they could not find any problem at all.
They even started clapping.
Immediately after, the entire auditorium was filled with thunderous applause!
Normally, at this moment, the main speaker should turn around and thank everyone with a smile.
However, Lin Fan still had his back facing the mathematics experts.
He was still writing rapidly with the pen in his hands.
Soon, the mathematicians noticed this.
Was the Hail Conjecture not proven successful?
Why was Lin Fan still writing the calculations?
(1/2)[A]+12[B]
Hk(X,Q)=0
… 𝚋𝚎𝚍𝚗o𝚟𝚎𝚕.org
Finally, someone exclaimed, "Hodge Conjecture! He's solving the Hodge Conjecture!"
His words were like a deep water bomb, causing the entire auditorium to shake violently.
Even though everyone knew that Lin Fan was studying the Hodge Conjecture last night and even praised him for his hard work, there were too many people studying the Hodge Conjecture.
Most people would need a lot of effort to understand the Hodge Conjecture, let alone solve it.
After all, this was a problem of the millennium.
Therefore, no one thought that Lin Fan would have a breakthrough in the Hodge Conjecture in such a short period of time.
What was Lin Fan trying to do now?
He was trying to answer the Hodge Conjecture in public?
How was this possible?
He had just solved the Hail Conjecture!
Professor Barnington, who was sitting in the front seat, watched Lin Fan write quickly. His turbid eyes gradually lit up as his wrinkled face became filled with anticipation.
293 Finished Answering; Creating History Again!
When Lin Fan stood on the stage and wrote down the details of the Hail Conjecture's proof process, his entire body and mind were completely immersed in the ocean of mathematics. He could not extricate himself.
When Lin Fan wrote down the final conclusion of the Hail Conjecture, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration.
[Absolute Focus: You've triggered a flash of inspiration!]
Suddenly, the Hodge Conjecture from last night's research was like a tidal wave in his mind.
Then, Lin Fan started to answer the Hodge Conjecture.
Lin Fan had already gotten the answer to the Hail Conjecture from the system.
Therefore, when he was writing earlier, he was very relaxed and fast.
Lin Fan did not have a complete grasp of the Hodge Conjecture.
However, with a flash of inspiration, his writing speed was not slow at all.
The difference was that the Hail Conjecture used the clearest and most straightforward algorithm.
At this moment, Lin Fan could not care less about anything else.
In addition, the Hodge Conjecture was much more complicated than the Hail Conjecture.
Therefore, even though everyone present was a great expert in the field of mathematics.
…The majority of the people could not keep up with Lin Fan's speed.
Some people looked at the complicated calculations and felt dizzy.
In the end, they could only choose to give up.
A man in a white shirt said in a low voice, "Do you understand?" 𝐛𝗲𝗱𝐧𝐨𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝐜𝐨𝐦
The person beside him said bitterly, "I understood the front part, but later on…"
The man in the white shirt heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately… Fortunately, he was not the only one who could not understand it.
However, he soon became extremely bitter.
Lin Fan was just a young man in his 20s!
Yet he could not even understand his calculations.
…
Professor Lancelot stared at the huge display screen for a long time and felt his eyes ache.
It was also at this moment that Lin Fan slowed down his writing speed.
Lancelot pinched his glabella and said, "It seems like he's in trouble. Professor Barnington, do you think he can succeed?"
"He's in big trouble. I'm afraid it'll be very difficult."
"What a pity," Lancelot said.
…
In reality, just as Lancelot and Barnington had expected, Lin Fan had indeed encountered some trouble.
In Lin Fan's mind, he was walking along the mountain path and was about to reach the peak. Just as he was admiring the beautiful scenery…
A cliff dozens of meters wide appeared on the road ahead.
Lin Fan could not cross it at all.
However, Lin Fan had already seen the beautiful scenery of the mountain peak with a quick glance.
He was eager to climb to the top and admire it.
[Do you wish to increase the level of your Professor-Level Mathematics Experience?]
"Yes!"
[Ding! Upgrade successful! Congratulations, you've received Grothendieck's Mathematics Experience.]
[Do you want to use the double skill card?]
"Yes!"
Lin Fan did not hesitate at all and used everything that could be used.
Suddenly, a gorgeous rainbow bridge appeared in the middle of the cliff.
Lin Fan walked on the rainbow bridge as if he was walking on flat ground.
The distance between him and the beautiful scenery at the top of the mountain was rapidly shrinking.
…
At the same time, Lin Fan's writing speed, which had just slowed down, increased once again.
The pen and the electronic display screen collided rapidly and violently! It produced an even more shocking melody.
Seeing this…
Barnington's dim eyes once again blossomed with brilliant light as he said excitedly, "He… He can really succeed!"
As if to verify Barnington's words, Lin Fan's writing speed became faster and faster.
In the next moment…
His wrist suddenly stopped, and he slowly put down the pen.
The entire auditorium fell silent.
After a while, someone shouted, "He succeeded!"
"The Hodge Conjecture has been proven!"
"Heavens, I'm witnessing history again!"
Witnessing history again?
That was right!
Some of the people who attended the report at Jiangbei University had already been there once.
Last time, Lin Fan solved a world-class problem in front of everyone—the Twin Prime Number Conjecture. He created a historical scene where he solved the problem on the spot.
Today, he had replayed what happened that day!
Furthermore, it was replaced by the Hodge Conjecture, which was even more difficult!
Immediately, everyone applauded with all their might, causing the entire auditorium to burst into thunderous applause.
Hu Tian, who was sitting below the stage, kept looking at Lin Fan quietly.
She watched as Lin Fan wrote down the proof process of the Hail Conjecture and the complicated proof process of the Hodge Conjecture.
Hu Tian looked at Lin Fan's focused expression and serious actions…
Gradually, her impression of Lin Fan started to grow bigger and bigger…
When he wrote down the final answer to the Hodge Conjecture, Lin Fan suddenly became as huge as the sun, filling Hu Tian's entire world.
…
"He's amazing!" Professor Barnington praised sincerely. "He's truly amazing!"
…
Professor Jeffrey, who was sitting in the front, shouted excitedly, "Professor Adivan, did you see that? Did you see that? He has created history again!
"I told you!"
When Lin Fan wrote down the final answer to the Hodge Conjecture, Professor Adivan was stunned.
As a result, he did not hear what Jeffrey was saying at all.
However, Jeffrey obviously did not realize this. He continued, "Since Lin Fan hasn't left yet, let's go over and ask a few questions."
Then, he grabbed Adivan's clothes and walked toward the stage.
In fact, many mathematicians had the same idea as him and walked to the stage.
However, Jeffrey was clearly faster.
He brought Adivan to Lin Fan and said in fluent English, "Hello, Mr. Lin. Can I ask you a few questions? The 55th equation, which was Xm+1= Sm9 -5… How did you get it?"
At this moment, Lin Fan was in a good mood.
When he put down the pen, a clear notification sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Mission completed—solve the Hodge Conjecture. You'll receive five golden packets!]
Lin Fan could still clearly remember how much he had gained from the previous golden packets.
He believed that this time, the rewards would definitely not be any worse!
Therefore, Lin Fan did not mind answering a few questions.
Even though Lin Fan had Professional English Skill, he still chose to answer in the language of Hua Nation.
However, he still chose to answer in the language of Hua Nation.
It was because he was a citizen of Hua Nation!
"This formula has to be combined with the 35th equation, the 41st equation, and the 44th equation, which is 3X1 + 5M =7s…"
After saying that, Lin Fan did not stay any longer. He turned around and walked backstage.
Only Professor Adivan and Professor Jeffrey were left standing there, confused.
"Jeffrey, you're right. We need to learn the language of Hua Nation," Professor Adivan said after a while."
Jeffrey nodded vigorously and said, "That's right!"
294 Game With Me; Have Dinner Together!
Before Lin Fan could go backstage, a few more waves of questions came from the mathematics experts.
Lin Fan, who was in a good mood, answered all the questions one by one.
Of course, Lin Fan answered all the questions in the language of Hua Nation.
The mathematicians wanted to ask more questions.
However, due to the fact that they did not understand the language, they were so anxious that they scratched their ears and cheeks. Even so, Lin Fan did not switch languages.
!
What Lin Fan did not know was that because of this incident, the international mathematics community started to learn the language of Hua Nation.
Moreover, as time passed, this trend became more and more popular.
…
Naturally, Lin Fan was unaware of all of this.
After he left the auditorium, he returned to his dormitory.
At this moment, there was no one in the dormitory. Song Yi, Zheng Jinbao, and Ma Zhong were all nowhere to be found.
Lin Fan was happy to be quiet.
Honestly, his ears were hurting from the applause in the auditorium.
Then, Lin Fan placed his attention on the golden packets.
He looked at the golden packets and could not help but reveal a look of anticipation.
"Five golden packets," he muttered. "Let me see what I can get.
"Open them!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received a double shares coupon.]
Good stuff!
Now, Lin Fan owned 10% of the shares of both Little Tanuki Group and Penguin Group.
Once he used it, he could immediately obtain another 10% of shares!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received eight million yuan.]
Trash!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained a land certificate.]
Good stuff!
After using it, he could immediately obtain 10,000 square meters of land and the ownership of all the buildings on it.
Lin Fan suddenly remembered that he still had two land certificates that he had not used. He could use them all next time.
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five million yuan.]
Trash.
Useless!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained 51% of Tiantian Bank's shares.]
Good stuff!
Tiantian Bank, the largest private bank in Hua Nation, had a market value of 600 billion yuan!
Lin Fan had obtained 51% of the shares, which meant that his assets had increased by 300 billion yuan!
Lin Fan looked at the things he got from the golden packets and nodded his head in satisfaction.
Then, he turned his attention to the double shares coupon.
[Ding! Do you want to use the double shares coupon on Penguin Group?]
"Yes!"
[Ding! You've used it successfully. You now have 20% of Penguin Group's shares!]
Instantly, Lin Fan's assets increased by another 500 billion yuan. He was one step closer to taking back Penguin Group and Little Tanuki Group from overseas forces.
After doing all this, Lin Fan's mood became more relaxed.
He lay on the bed and took out his phone out of boredom. He opened the game that his roommates had been playing recently.
Lin Fan also knew that this was a turret-pushing and killing game.
However, it would be too difficult to play by himself.
Hence, before the game started, Lin Fan opened Sharkstream.
At this time, Dream Type was controlling Han Xin and easily took down the double kill.
Countless bullet comments immediately flooded the live broadcast room.
Bin Bin: [As expected of Dream Type. He's really awesome!]
Happy Happy: [The operation is too cool!]
Man in the Wind: [When can I have such skills?]
Brother Jiang: [Awesome!]
Shadowless: [Killer!]
Yang Long: [Dream Type, I'll tip you. How about you play a few rounds with me?]
Dream Type obviously saw these bullet comments as well. He smiled and casually said, "I'm afraid I don't have much time to game with everyone. As for the gifts, feel free to give them… I don't really care about that."
As soon as he said this…
In the live broadcast room, a golden notification suddenly appeared: [Welcome to the live broadcast room.]
Then…
One rocket.
Ten rockets.
50 rockets.
100 rockets.
200 rockets.
…
In the end, a total of 1,000 rockets flew past the screen.
The entire live broadcast room exploded.
Golden Goldfish: [F*ck! He's the legendary Work Slayer!]
Book Famine: [Awesome! The rich and powerful tycoon is here to pamper Dream Type!]
Illusion in the Dream Realm: [Work Slayer is a realm above others!]
Loved for Life: [Work Slayer?! Our king is here!]
Lover: [I've finally met the godly Work Slayer]
…
Lin Fan did not care about the comments and sent out a message.
Work Slayer: [Dream Trype, compensate me by playing a few games with me.]
Dream Type never expected that the legendary tycoon would actually appear in his live broadcast room.
He looked at the screen full of rockets and was completely dumbfounded.
After a while, Dream Type finally shouted, "Daddy, I'm coming to game with you!"
What did he mean by not having time to game with others?
Was Daddy one of them?
Of course not!
…
A similar situation happened in Atai, Old Rate, and God Meow's live streams.
Thus, a team formed by Lin Fan and four top professional gamers was formed.
Even if a god stood in their way, they would kill him.
The four top-notch professional gamers surrounded Lin Fan in the middle and kept depleting the opponent's health, leaving only a little bit of health for Lin Fan to finish them off.
One kill, two kills, three kills, four kills…
Lin Fan was having a lot of fun playing this game.
A day passed in the blink of an eye.
When Lin Fan was walking on the small path in the school forest, he happened to bump into Hu Tian. 𝚋ed𝚗𝚘𝚟e𝚕.𝚗et
For some reason, Lin Fan suddenly felt that she was a little different from this morning.
At this moment, Hu Tian's beautiful eyes were like gemstones as they flickered slightly. Her entire pretty face was flushed red.
Although her cherry lips were not open, she seemed to be expressing her fascination with him.
Lin Fan looked at her appearance. For some reason, he suddenly thought of Xia Bing and Xia Xue.
Hence, he could not help but use the Eyes of Truth on her.
[Appearance: 98]
[Favorability: 99]
99!
As expected, Teacher Tiantian's favorability toward him had also reached 99!
When did this happen?
At this moment, Lin Fan's stomach growled.
"Teacher Tiantian, have you eaten yet?" Lin Fan asked.
"Not yet," Hu Tian said.
Lin Fan smiled. "That's good. Let's eat together!"
They went straight to the 26th floor of the Zhongshang Building.
This was the place where Lin Fan and Hu Tian had come for their first meal.
The two of them ate steak and drank red wine. Lin Fan went up and played a piano piece just like the first time they met.
Although the meal only cost 32,999 yuan, the two of them enjoyed the food.
When Lin Fan sent Teacher Tiantian home, perhaps because the sky was a little dark, Teacher Tiantian was a little afraid. Therefore, she turned around and hugged Lin Fan.
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
? (ˉ﹃ˉ?)
…
The moonlight was like a veil that shone upon them.
295 Interviews; Too Old!
Lin Fan's report not only made the mathematics experts acknowledge his solution to the Hail Conjecture, but he even solved the Hodge Conjecture on the spot.
Normally, when such a grand report was held, there would be countless media and reporters from both domestic and foreign countries fighting to report on it.
However, Jiangbei University knew that Lin Fan did not like doing interviews.
That was why he was so relaxed now.
The reporters could not interview Lin Fan, so they focused their cameras on the mathematics experts who attended the report.
"Professor Barnington, may I ask if Lin Fan's solutions to the Hail Conjecture and the Hodge Conjecture are correct?" A fair-skinned female reporter asked.
Barnington thought for a moment and said, "I'm sure the solution for the Hail Conjecture is correct, but the solution for the Hodge Conjecture is too complicated. I need more time to do more in-depth research."
The reporter seemed to have caught some hot news and quickly said, "You mean that there's a problem with Lin Fan's solution to the Hodge Conjecture?"
"No, that's not it! It's just that his mathematics level far exceeds mine, so I need more time to study it. It's like a teacher explaining a difficult problem, and the students below require time to digest it."
The reporter was slightly stunned. She did not expect Barnington to say that.
One had to know…
He was a top-notch expert in the mathematics world!
Lin Fan was just a young man in his 20s.
This…
The reporter could not help but say, "You actually think so highly of him."
Barnington looked up into the distance as if he was recalling something. "When I saw him, I thought of Grothendieck."
The reporter's pupils suddenly constricted.
Grothendieck!
The pop of Mathematics!
It had to be said that Barnington was pretty good.
Lin Fan… had Grothendieck's Mathematics Experience!
…
At this moment, a fair-skinned male reporter walked over and said, "Professor Jeffrey, Professor Adivan, hello. I'm a reporter from the BCC. Did Lin Fan really solve the Hail Conjecture and the Hodge Conjecture?"
"Yes!" Jeffrey said with certainty.
The male reporter said, "But he's only in his 20s, right? He solved so many difficult questions at this age. Do you think someone answered it in advance and then he just copied it?
"I think there was such an incident in Hua Nation in the past.
"Otherwise, he wouldn't have refused to be interviewed."
Jeffrey and Adivan looked at the reporter as if he was a fool.
Someone answered it and then handed it over to Lin Fan to write it in public?
Was this person brainless? 𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"If you had been to the report, or if you knew a little bit about mathematics, you definitely wouldn't have said something like that," Adivan said.
"Because he works very hard!" Jeffrey said. "He was racing against time to study mathematics! I don't want to waste my time on these boring interviews, and now… We have to hurry back to America and ask the best teachers to teach us the language of Hua Nation as soon as possible."
After saying that, he directly flashed past.
…
Things were extremely lively on Weibo.
Nation Daily: [Congratulations to Lin Fan of Jiangbei University for successfully holding the Hail Conjecture Report and solving the Hodge Conjecture!]
It Seems: [He's solved four math problems. Lin Fan? No! God Lin, are you still human?]
Big Ka: [Do you know? My mentor initially studied Zhou's Conjecture. He studied it for a year and only managed to make some progress. Then, God Lin solved it.
[Therefore, my mentor changed the topic and studied the Twin Prime Number Conjecture. We had just planned out the research steps when we suddenly found out that God Lin had solved it.
[Then, my mentor thought about it for a long time and said that he wanted to study a different problem. Therefore, he changed from the Twin Prime Number Conjecture to the Hail Conjecture.
[We only studied it for a few days, and God Lin already solved the Hail Conjecture.
[My mentor said that this couldn't happen again. He wanted to study a difficult problem that no one could answer in this century, so he chose the Hodge Conjecture.
[He had just confirmed the topic yesterday, and now, God Lin has solved the Hodge Conjecture!
[My mentor has already fainted in the toilet from crying. I won't say anything more. I'm going to send him to the hospital now.]
Little Mosquito: [Hahaha! Commenter above, that's too funny!]
Er Li: [In short, God Lin is awesome!]
Qi Qi Ke Ke: [F*ck! I heard that if you solve these kinds of problems, you can get a million dollars! Doesn't that mean that God Lin will become a millionaire soon?]
Carefree: [A million dollars is nothing much! God Lin already received a ten million yuan bonus last time!]
Person: [Ten million yuan?! Is it too late for me to start studying mathematics now?]
…
Lin Fan did not care about the interviews of the mathematics experts or the heated discussions on the internet.
In the blink of an eye, two days had passed.
Today was Saturday. After Lin Fan had breakfast, he drove his Mercedes-Benz to the airport.
The luxury plane of Xia Airlines had been waiting there for a long time.
When Lin Fan arrived, he was immediately greeted by many air stewardesses.
Rumble!
After a loud noise, the plane flew into the distance.
In less than two hours, Lin Fan arrived at Modu.
Today, he had specially come to look for Qin Yuxuan.
The two of them had not seen each other for too long, with the last time being the spring festival.
At this moment, Qin Yuxuan walked briskly into the towering Global Financial Tower.
She had a perfect figure, beautiful facial features, and the unique temperament of a female elite in the workplace. Everywhere she passed, the people around were stunned.
A man wearing Anima clothes with Porsche car keys in his hand slowly walked over and said in a slightly puzzled tone, "Pretty lady, have we met before?"
However, before Qin Yuxuan could answer, a teasing voice sounded behind her.
"Brother, what era is it now? How old-fashioned! Watch me!"
Qin Yuxuan's beautiful eyes moved slightly when she heard the voice.
It was because she was very familiar with the owner of this voice—Lin Fan!
Then, Lin Fan stepped forward and held Qin Yuxuan's slender waist. He then placed his mouth on hers.
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
He smiled and said, "Pretty lady, be my girlfriend!"
Qin Yuxuan's pretty face blushed slightly. She opened her red lips slightly and said softly, "Alright."
296 Greetings, Mr. Lin!
Then, Lin Fan slowly turned his body and looked at the man beside him with a smile. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝗻𝗼𝘃𝐞𝗹.𝗻𝐞𝘁
The man was not a fool. How could he not understand that Lin Fan was Qin Yuxuan's boyfriend?
There was nothing wrong with pursuing beautiful women.
However, it would be too awkward if he met the other party's boyfriend when he was pursuing her.
At this moment, he just wanted to find a hole to hide in and quickly left with his head buried.
Qin Yuxuan did not expect Lin Fan to have such a funny side to him. She could not help but laugh. "When did you come to Modu?"
"I just got off the plane," Lin Fan said.
When Qin Yuxuan heard this, the smile on her face deepened. She held Lin Fan's arm and walked into the Global Financial Tower.
After a while, the two of them arrived at the 78th floor.
The words 'Fan Yu Investment' immediately entered Lin Fan's eyes.
Back then, when Lin Fan helped to buy this floor, it was empty.
Now, there were many desks and computers. Many men and women in white shirts were working seriously inside.
The beautiful lady sitting at the front desk was stunned when she saw Qin Yuxuan and Lin Fan.
Although Qin Yuxuan had just graduated, she did not have a hint of naivety in her conduct and actions.
In everyone's hearts, Qin Yuxuan was a strict CEO.
When had the beautiful receptionist ever seen Qin Yuxuan's feminine attitude?
Moreover, Qin Yuxuan was holding a young man's hand.
This…
"Hello, President Qin."
Qin Yuxuan smiled and nodded at her before continuing to walk inside.
Soon, the others in the company also noticed this scene.
However, they still greeted them quickly and tried to guess Lin Fan's identity.
At this moment, Qin Yuxuan's phone vibrated slightly.
She glanced at the message and said, "There's a banquet later. Do you want to accompany me?"
"I came to Modu today to accompany you." Lin Fan smiled.
Qin Yuxuan felt even sweeter in her heart. She could not help but snuggle into Lin Fan's embrace.
This scene was seen by all the employees.
One could hear the sound of some hearts breaking.
It could not be helped. Qin Yuxuan was too beautiful and was the goddess in the hearts of many employees.
Now, the goddess was lying in the arms of another man.
However, Qin Yuxuan did not seem to notice this. She returned to her office and took out a USB drive before walking out with Lin Fan.
…
A banquet hall on the third floor of the Shangri-La Hotel.
At this moment, many men and women with big bellies were dressed in suits and leather shoes. They were all gathered together, chatting and laughing.
Meanwhile, Senior Sister Lu and Senior Sister Fan, who had accompanied Qin Yuxuan to choose the location for the company back then, were standing at the door and whispering something.
When Senior Sister Fan raised her head, she saw Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan.
"Yu Xuan, Lin Fan, you guys are here!"
When Senior Sister Lu heard this, she also raised her head and said, "Lin Fan, I was just saying that when you bought the office for Fan Yu Investment, you also took out 200 million yuan as the starting capital. I didn't expect you to come so quickly."
"Is that so?" Lin Fan asked.
"It is!" Senior Sister Lu said.
"Since last year, we've been in contact with most of the companies in the Global Financial Building and have pulled in dozens of investors!"
The more Senior Sister Lu spoke, the more excited she became. She was dancing with joy.
"The 300 million yuan you invested back then should be able to bring you several times the benefits!"
Senior Sister Lu saw that Lin Fan's expression was calm and thought that he did not believe her.
"Don't doubt me! The CEOs who have invested in our company and some big bosses who are interested in us will all be here today… Among them is the chairman of Tiantian Bank! You have to treat him well later and take a good look!"
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from behind.
When Senior Sister Lu heard the sound, she turned around and said, "Hello, Director Liu. Please come in."
Director Liu nodded and was about to walk in.
In the next moment, his body became solemn as he said excitedly, "Mr. Lin, you're here!"
Lin Fan did not know him, but since he greeted him, he could not ignore him. He nodded.
Director Liu said happily, "Haha! I didn't expect to meet you today. My luck is really too good!
"By the way, our company is on the 35th floor of the Global Financial Building… I'll invest 20 million yuan in Fan Yu Investment later."
Lin Fan nodded and said, "Sure, I'll give you a 50% discount on your rent."
"Thank you, thank you, Mr. Lin," Director Liu shouted excitedly.
50% off!
Their company needed 20 million yuan for their annual rent.
In other words, it was reduced by ten million yuan!
Although he had invested another 20 million yuan, investments were more often profitable. Even if he lost money, could he lose everything all at once?
Furthermore, this might leave an impression on Lin Fan's heart.
This was definitely a good deal.
Senior Sister Fan and Senior Sister Lu, who were standing at the side, listened to the conversation between the two of them and were dumbfounded.
Rent?
What rent?
Some of the bosses who were chatting and laughing inside seemed to have heard the conversation at the door and quickly walked towards it.
"Hello, Mr. Lin!"
"Greetings, Mr. Lin."
"Mr. Lin, our company on the 29th floor invested 30 million yuan in Fan Yu Investment!"
"Mr. Lin, our company on the 45th floor invested 20 million yuan in Fan Yu Investment."
…
Everyone surrounded Lin Fan.
Lin Fan said, "As long as you invest, your rent will be 50% off!"
"Thank you, Mr. Lin!" The bosses shouted happily.
Lin Fan looked at the crowded entrance of the banquet hall and said, "Don't squeeze at the door. Let's go inside and sit."
All the bosses nodded and found a place to sit in the banquet hall.
However, their eyes were still looking over at Lin Fan, filled with a fawning intent.
Seeing that everyone had left, Senior Sister Lu came back to her senses and said, "The rent they mentioned is…"
"Oh, didn't I tell you about the Global Financial Building? The entire Global Financial Tower is mine," Lin Fan said.
His tone was calm and relaxed.
However, to Senior Sister Fan and Senior Sister Lu's ears, it was like a thunderclap that shook their eardrums.
One had to know…
The Global Financial Tower was located in the center of Modu and was the most high-end office building with a market value of about 50 billion yuan!
It belonged to Lin Fan!
No wonder, no wonder… The property management seemed to take special care of them.
It was no wonder that when their company negotiated with the companies in the Global Financial Building, everything went very smoothly.
In fact, some companies did not even negotiate anything with them. They were very proactive in cooperating with their company.
A discount on rent?
It seemed that Lin Fan had already given them prior instructions.
297 One Tomson Building
At this moment, another set of footsteps sounded from outside the corridor.
A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses who looked very refined slowly walked in.
When some of the bosses saw him, their expressions became slightly solemn. They said, "Chairman Huang."
"Hello, Chairman Huang!"
Chairman Huang was the chairman of Tiantian Bank, Huang Jiayi!
He was also the most important person in today's banquet!
"Welcome, Chairman Huang," Senior Lu and Senior Fan said.
However, Huang Jiayi acted as if he did not hear these greetings. He walked quickly to Lin Fan and bowed slightly. He said in a respectful tone, "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry I'm a little late."
Lin Fan said calmly, "It's fine. The banquet hasn't started yet anyway."
Huang Jiayi heaved a sigh of relief.
Senior Lu and Senior Fan saw this.
What… What was going on?
Yes, they already knew that the Global Financial Tower belonged to Lin Fan.
However, Tiantian Bank did not seem to have rented a space in the Global Financial Building.
Why was Huang Jiayi so polite to Lin Fan? He could even be said to be respectful!
Finally, Senior Lu could not help but ask, "Lin… Lin Fan, do you know Chairman Huang?"
Lin Fan replied, "It's my first time seeing him today."
"First time? Then why is he…" Senior Lu was even more confused.
Lin Fan naturally understood what she meant. He smiled and said, "Probably because I'm the biggest shareholder of Tiantian Bank."
Silence!
The entire scene suddenly fell silent!
Senior Lu and Senior Fan were completely stunned.
The biggest shareholder of Tiantian Bank!
Tiantian Bank was the largest private bank in Hua Nation, with a market value of more than 600 billion.
The largest shareholder…
How much money was that?
Back then, Lin Fan casually took out 100 million yuan to buy the 78th floor of the Global Financial Tower. Then, he took out another 200 million yuan for the company's start-up capital.
Today, they found out that the entire Global Financial Tower belonged to Lin Fan.
These… It had already shocked the two of them.
Now, they learned about his identity as the biggest shareholder of Tiantian Bank.
This…
This…
This completely exceeded the imagination and understanding of the two women.
They had just said that they wanted to let Lin Fan broaden his horizons.
Senior Lu blushed at the thought of this.
However, what Senior Lu and Senior Fan did not know was that the strength that Lin Fan had displayed was only the tip of the iceberg.
If the two of them knew that Lin Fan was also the biggest shareholder of Yinshan Group, Qing Kun Group, Xiao Wu Wholesale City, and many other companies worth billions of dollars…
He also owned 5% shares of international companies such as LV, Volkswagen Group, and Gucci.
He was even the second-largest shareholder of Little Tanuki Group and Penguin Group…
As for residential areas and high-end office buildings, he owned even more.
One wondered what their expressions would be like if they found out about all these.
Qin Yuxuan, who was standing at the side, looked at Lin Fan with shining eyes.
In her eyes, Lin Fan's tall figure was getting bigger and bigger.
At the same time, he emitted an aura as bright as the sun and as vast as the universe.
Qin Yuxuan… was completely infatuated.
Amidst the noise, the banquet officially began.
Lin Fan… Without a doubt, Lin Fan was the main character of today's banquet.
On the other hand, Fan Yu Investment received billions of yuan worth of investment.
If it were in the past, Senior Lu and Senior Fan would definitely be jumping around for joy.
However, at this moment, they were very calm.
The impact that Lin Fan had given them was just too great.
…
After the banquet ended, Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan did not leave the Shangri-La Hotel.
Instead, they went straight to the presidential suite on the top floor.
When they walked into the presidential suite, the two of them were like magnets, hugging each other tightly.
The longing of meeting again after such a long time made Qin Yuxuan feel as though she was about to melt into water and merge into Lin Fan's embrace.
o( ̄ε ̄*)
(* ̄3)(ε ̄*)
Tonight, there was no sleep.
…
The next day.
When Lin Fan opened his eyes, it was already bright outside.
He was the only one on the big white bed.
Lin Fan picked up his phone out of habit.
At this moment, as usual, a text message appeared on the screen.
[Notice from Merchant Bank: 7,100,000 yuan was deposited into your account.]
Then, he turned his attention to the check-in system.
"It's useless to earn ten million yuan these days. I hope I can get something else today.
"Sign in!"
[Ding! Congratulations, you've obtained one Tomson Building.]
Lin Fan had naturally heard of Tomson Building.
It was a top-notch luxury residential building that cost more than 200,000 yuan per square meter.
There seemed to be more than 40 units in each building.
Each unit was about 100 million to 200 million yuan.
In other words, he had earned a conservative five billion yuan from this sign-in.
Lin Fan nodded his head slightly, expressing his satisfaction.
Then, he slowly got up and walked out. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝗻𝐨𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝗼𝗿𝐠
At this moment, Qin Yuxuan was sitting in front of the computer, dealing with her work seriously.
The reason why Fan Yu Investment was able to attract so many investments and develop so quickly was that the companies that rented the Global Financial Tower had given Lin Fan their support.
At the same time, it was also because of Qin Yuxuan's hard work.
Otherwise, no matter how much money they received, they would probably end up losing everything in the end.
At this moment, Qin Yuxuan noticed Lin Fan as well. She could not help but smile sweetly. "You're awake? I'm almost done with my work for today."
Lin Fan said, "Alright! Then I'll get someone to send some food up first."
"Yes, yes!" Qin Yuxuan replied.
Then, Lin Fan picked up his phone and got someone to send up bird's nest porridge, sea urchin egg tarts, seafood noodles, prawns, sea cucumbers, and all kinds of exquisite food. After that, he went to wash up.
When Lin Fan returned, the food was delivered.
The two of them sat together and slowly tasted the delicacies. It was extremely relaxing.
Then, Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan spent another two hours in the presidential suite.
When Qin Yuxuan went to the washroom, Lin Fan's phone vibrated.
12:00!
The red packets were here!
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received five yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 999 yuan.]
…
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 10,000 yuan.]
[Ding! Congratulations, you've received 3,222 yuan.]
…
Lin Fan tapped on the screen and received a total of 52,112 yuan. Then, he casually stuffed his phone back into his pocket.
…
It was March. The breeze was gentle and refreshing in Modu.
Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan held hands as they strolled along the bustling streets.
At this moment, Lin Fan was no longer a billionaire, and Qin Yuxuan was no longer the CEO of a large-scale investment company.
They were like an ordinary couple, unrestrained.
When they turned at an intersection, a commotion suddenly sounded in the distance.
Qin Yuxuan followed the voice, and her expression changed slightly. "Aunt, Qian Qian!"
Then, she said to Lin Fan, "That's my aunt and niece!"
She quickened her pace and walked forward.
298 You Humans Are Worse Than Dogs; Apologize!
At this moment…
A little girl who looked like a porcelain doll was lying on the ground, wailing and trembling.
She was extremely panicked and afraid.
Her aunt, who was dressed in simple clothes, quickly bent down and picked her up. Her face was filled with concern and worry.
After Qin Yuxuan ran over, she quickly asked, "Aunt, what's wrong with Qian Qian? Is she alright?"
Ever since she was young, her aunt had been very good to Qin Yuxuan.
Every time she returned to Qing City, her aunt would bring a lot of snacks and toys for Qin Yuxuan.
In fact, this was also one of the reasons why Qin Yuxuan chose to study in Modu.
Ever since she arrived in Modu, Qin Yuxuan would visit her aunt's house to play with Qian Qian whenever she was free.
At this moment, she saw Qian Qian in pain, and her heart ached for her.
However, before her aunt could answer, a lady with a pearl necklace as thick as a finger and heavy makeup on her face shouted, "I don't know what's wrong with her.
"But my Lil Tai was scared by this little girl. He's still shaking! Hurry up and apologize to Lil Tai! Otherwise, this matter won't end!"
Then, the noblewoman pulled the dog leash, making the retreating dog take a few steps forward.
The dog immediately barked.
Qin Yuxuan's aunt had always had a good temper, but when she heard this, she could not help but feel angry.
"What are you talking about? It was clearly your dog that scared my daughter. We haven't asked you to apologize, but you want us to apologize to your dog?!"
The conversation between the two quickly attracted the attention of many pedestrians.
Many people started discussing in low voices.
"She's asking them to apologize to her dog? Is she kidding?"
"That little girl fell."
"What a pitiful little girl."
"I think her hand is injured…"
…
"My Lil Tai eats top-grade beef and fruits shipped back from abroad every day. How can she compare to my Lil Tai?!
"Hurry up and apologize to my Lil Tai!"
When the lady said this, she became even more domineering.
Seeing that Qin Yuxuan's aunt had no intention of apologizing, she was unhappy and raised her hand to push her.
At this moment, a large hand appeared and stopped the noblewoman with a slap.
It was Lin Fan!
Lin Fan had the power of Violent Aesthetics. How strong was he?
With a casual slap, the lady's arm immediately swelled up.
The lady shouted ferociously, "You dare to hit me?!"
She was extremely angry. Her eyes were wide open, and cracks appeared on the thick makeup on her face.
It was as though she wanted to swallow Lin Fan alive.
Lin Fan raised his hand again. 𝑏𝘦𝘥𝑛𝘰𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚
However…
This time, she did not slap her arm this time but her face.
Instantly, the lady's face turned red and swollen.
"Apologize!" Lin Fan said coldly.
This slap did not wake the lady up. Instead, it infuriated her.
"Ahhhh! You're done for! I guarantee you're all done for!
"The three-star Michelin restaurant behind is mine! I'll make sure you're completely done for!"
The noblewoman roared loudly as if she had turned into a mad dog.
Lin Fan did not say anything. He slapped the lady's face again.
Instantly, both sides of her face became red and swollen. She looked like a pig's head.
Then, Lin Fan used the corner of his eye to glance at the nearby Fumando Hotel.
Then, he placed his attention on the land certificates in the system.
[Ding! Do you want to use land certificates with Fumando Hotel as the center?]
Lin Fan had a total of three land certificates.
He had been looking for an opportunity to use them.
Now, he finally had a chance.
"Yes!"
[Ding! You've used them successfully.]
The noblewoman covered her pig-like face and shouted, "Alright, just you wait!"
As she spoke, she took out her phone and quickly made a call.
"Hubby, I'm at the entrance of the Fumando Hotel. I was beaten up."
After trying her best to comfort her daughter, Qin Yuxuan's aunt said, "Yu Xuan, why don't we leave?"
Although she also wanted her to apologize, Fumando Hotel was the top hotel in the entire city!
She could not afford to offend this noblewoman.
If the people from the hotel arrived, it would definitely be a disaster.
"You want to leave? No way!"
After saying that, she took a few steps forward and blocked the path of Qin Yuxuan, her aunt, and the others.
Qin Yuxuan pulled Qian Qian into her arms and comforted her. Then, she looked at Lin Fan.
Obviously, she was asking for Lin Fan's opinion.
Lin Fan gave her a reassuring expression and then glanced at the lady coldly.
The wealthy lady dared to roar at Qin Yuxuan's aunt and stop Qin Yuxuan.
Facing Lin Fan, who had slapped her twice, the woman was terrified and could not help but take a few steps back.
At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded from afar.
Then, a large group of tall men in security uniforms walked over.
When the lady saw this group of people, especially the middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes who was walking in the front, she became extremely excited.
She shouted, "Hubby, I'm here!"
When the middle-aged man saw the lady's current appearance, he could not help but be stunned.
When he saw the person standing next to the lady, his pupils constricted.
Lin Fan!
Boss Lin!
Many people thought that Fumando Hotel belonged to the middle-aged man.
However, the middle-aged man knew very well that he was only the person in charge on the surface.
The real boss was someone else.
Today, or rather, just now…
The middle-aged man found out that Fumando Hotel's boss had changed to a young man in his 20s called Lin Fan.
Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he saw the new boss in person.
At this moment, the lady pointed at Lin Fan and shouted, "It's him, it's him! Hubby, he's the one who beat me up!
"Not only is this little girl inferior to my Lil Tai, but all of you combined are far inferior to my Lil Tai! How dare you hit me?!
"Bastard, weren't you very arrogant just now? Continue hitting me, then!"
She… She actually dared to say that Lin Fan and the people beside him… could not even compare to a dog?
Then, she even called Lin Fan a bastard?
How dare she?
How dare he?
Bastard!
The middle-aged man was extremely angry. He quickly walked forward.
In the next moment, he raised his hand and slapped at lightning speed.
This slap landed on the noblewoman's face again.
The noblewoman's face was already red and swollen. With this slap, a trace of blood seeped out from the corner of her mouth.
299 I Bought This Establishment; It's a Free Canteen!
This sudden slap stunned the lady.
W-What was going on?
Why did her husband suddenly hit her?
Did he not come here to support her?
However, before the noblewoman could ask…
Another slap landed on the lady's face.
This time, it wasn't the middle-aged man who attacked. It was Lin Fan.
Lin Fan said calmly, "You asked me to hit you. I was just fulfilling your wish."
This slap seemed to wake the lady up a little. She shouted, "I'll fight you to the death!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she stretched out her hand which was like a claw and was about to grab Lin Fan.
"You b*tch!"
The middle-aged man shouted.
Then, he kicked her to the ground.
He bent down and said in a respectful and nervous tone, "Mr. Lin, I'm sorry. I didn't discipline her well and allowed her to offend you. I'm sorry…"
Lin Fan said coldly, "Did she offend me? She said that my girlfriend's aunt's daughter can't even compare to her dog! She even wanted them to apologize to the dog!"
The middle-aged man was so scared that he shivered, and cold sweat rolled down his forehead.
He kicked the noblewoman again and shouted, "Apologize!"
The lady cried in pain and rolled on the ground, but she did not apologize immediately.
The middle-aged man kicked again and said, "Hurry up and apologize! Quickly apologize to them!"
At this moment, the lady understood that Lin Fan definitely had a terrifying identity.
She lay on the ground and cried, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry… It was my fault just now… I was talking nonsense."
This drastic change made Qin Yuxuan's aunt and Qian Qian feel a little overwhelmed.
Lin Fan snorted and said, "Yuxuan, Aunt, Qian Qian. It's time for dinner. Let's go eat together."
Qin Yuxuan smiled. "Aunt, Qian Qian, let's go. Let's eat something delicious together."
After saying that, she pulled Qian Qian into her arms.
The middle-aged man, who had been bending over, hurriedly said, "Mr. Lin, I'll arrange a table for you at Fumando Hotel."
Lin Fan glanced at him and said calmly, "That's unnecessary. You let your wife do whatever she wants. Fumando doesn't need someone like you."
Then, he strode forward.
Lin Fan did not hold back at all.
It was because he knew very well that if it had been someone else, they would not have been able to do anything.
In fact, that person may end up miserable.
How could an apology be enough?
The middle-aged man felt as if all the strength in his body had been sucked dry in an instant, and he fell to the ground weakly.
He was done for…
He had worked so hard for so many years to become the general manager of Fumando, and now… It was gone…
When he lowered his head and saw the noblewoman lying on the ground, he was furious and shouted, "It's you! It's all because of you, you b*tch!"
Then, the middle-aged man punched and kicked the lady again.
Regarding this…
Lin Fan did not care.
…
Under the welcome of the deputy general manager and the higher-ups for Fumando, Lin Fan, Qin Yuxuan, her aunt, and Qian Qian came to a luxurious private room and sat down.
"Aunt, this is my boyfriend, Lin Fan," Qin Yuxuan introduced.
She sized Lin Fan up and nodded her head in satisfaction.
Lin Fan was simply too handsome. Furthermore, he had a special aura about him.
After a while, Qin Yuxuan's aunt said, "Lin Fan, thank you so much for just now… If it wasn't for you, I don't know what kind of trouble Qian Qian and I would have been put in."
Lin Fan said casually, "It's just a small matter. You don't have to take it to heart."
At this moment, pufferfish, Buddha Jumps Over The Wall, and other delicious dishes were quickly served.
"…You ordered so many dishes?" Qin Yuxuan's aunt said in surprise. She could not help but swallow her saliva as she smelled the fragrance of the delicious food.
Lin Fan said, "That's why we have to eat more!"
"Let's eat together. It won't taste good if the food gets cold later."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Fan picked up a piece of meat and placed it into Qin Yuxuan's bowl.
With Lin Fan taking the lead, the others did not hesitate anymore.
When everyone put the food into their mouths, they could not stop at all.
"It's delicious!" Qian Qian could not help but exclaim."
"Qianqian, you have to eat more," Qin Yuxuan said with a smile.
"Yes, yes!" Qian Qian nodded vigorously.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
"Oh right, Lin Fan, you and Fumando Hotel…" Qin Yuxuan said.
"Oh, I bought this hotel a while ago. I'm considered the boss here now," Lin Fan said. "In the future, you can treat this place as a free canteen."
His tone was very relaxed and calm.
It was as if he was saying, 'Oh, I just ate.'
However, to Qin Yuxuan and her aunt, it was completely different.
One had to know…
Fumando had the only three-star Michelin restaurant in Modu!
On average, one spent more than 5,000 yuan here!
Even so, reservations were full until next month!
One could imagine how amazing this establishment was.
Now, this establishment belonged to Lin Fan?
Lin Fan said that he bought it?
He made it sound like he was just buying a small shop.
When Lin Fan and the others walked out of the private room, the higher-ups of Fumando were waiting at the side like before.
Lin Fan looked at the man in black-rimmed glasses standing at the front and said, "What's your name?"
"My name is Jiang Chao, the deputy general manager of Fu Manduo," the man replied respectfully.
Lin Fan nodded his head and said, "Alright, you'll be in charge of Fumando from now on."
Jiang Chao said excitedly, "Understood! I'll definitely manage Fumando well in the future…"
Lin Fan did not wait for him to say a bunch of promises. He waved his hand and said, "Alright, that's it."
Qin Yuxuan's aunt knew that Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan were on a date.
Therefore, after they left Fumando, she brought Qian Qian to bid farewell to Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan so that they could enjoy their time together as a couple.
After eating, Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan did not want to sit down.
Just like that, the two of them strolled along the road to digest their food.
They did not walk far before they were attracted by a European-style castle-like building not far away.
On the top of the castle were the words 'Patek Phillippe.'
'Patek Phillippe,' Lin Fan muttered in his heart. Then, his gaze landed on Qin Yuxuan's smooth and beautiful body.
Without any hesitation, Lin Fan pulled Qin Yuxuan's hand and walked into the castle-like shop. 𝙗𝒆𝒅𝒏𝙤𝒗𝒆𝙡.𝙤𝒓𝙜
As soon as he entered the shop, he heard a pleasant sound like the sound of spring water.
At this moment, the shop assistant also noticed someone coming in. She smiled and said, "Welcome to Patek Phillippe."
300 Buying a Watch; Forcing It!
Then, the female shop assistant who was standing closer to the door slowly came up to them.
"May I help you?" she asked softly.
Lin Fan pointed at Qin Yuxuan and said, "I'm here to buy a watch for my girlfriend. Do you have any recommendations?"
The shop assistant secretly sized up Qin Yuxuan and was first stunned by her appearance.
When she saw the Heart of the Deep Sea on Qin Yuxuan's neck, her eyes lit up slightly.
When she shifted her gaze to Lin Fan and accidentally saw the Vacheron Constantin Tour de l'Ile he was wearing, her heart skipped a beat.
She knew… she had definitely met a big client today.
Hence, her attitude became even more respectful.
This was not because the saleswoman was scrutinizing customers to filter them out.
It was just that after a simple screening, she could provide better service.
"This lady's skin is fair, and her temperament is refined. She matches our Patek Philippe's Tiannian, KJ, and Floral collections."
She pointed at the crystal counter and introduced the exquisite and unique watches.
However, Qin Yuxuan did not seem to be too interested in these watches. Her expression remained the same.
The shop assistant seemed to have noticed this as well and said, "And this Fenghua… In my opinion, it's the most suitable."
She pointed at a watch in the middle.
Qin Yuxuan looked in the direction she was pointing, and her beautiful eyes could not help but light up.
This change was also seen by the female shop assistant.
She smiled and gave a more detailed introduction. "Fenghua was designed and produced by the famous horologist, Mr. Laurenhan, and it took him five years. There are 15 pieces worldwide, and this is the only one in Hua Nation.
"Therefore, it can be said to be unique in the country.
"The glass is made of sapphire. It's transparent, bright, and noble… There are a total of 99 natural diamonds embedded in the watch band and case. Under the illumination of the lights, they are dazzling and gorgeous, just like a young lady with peerless beauty…"
The shop assistant introduced the watch while putting on a pair of rubber gloves. She carefully took it out.
"Wow! What a beautiful watch!"
At this moment, a surprised cry came from the door.
"Honey, I want this watch," the gorgeous woman said coquettishly.
The man looked in the direction the woman was pointing at and casually glanced at the watch.
However, he was immediately shocked by Qin Yuxuan's beautiful appearance.
Exquisite facial features and a perfect figure!
Goddess, she was definitely a goddess!
In the past, the man thought that his new girlfriend was very beautiful.
Now, it seemed she was just trash!
The gorgeous woman did not notice the change in the man's expression. She shook the man's arm and said, "Darling, I want that watch…"
The man finally came back to his senses and said, "Ah, ah…"
Even though the gorgeous woman had been very loud ever since she entered the shop, the shop assistant could not reprimand her at all. She could only explain in a respectful tone, "Sorry, this watch is currently being shown to these two customers…"
If the shop assistant had not said this, the man would have hesitated to buy the watch.
It was because he knew about Patek Phillippe. Any watch from this brand would probably cost hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Now, after hearing the female shop assistant say this, the man was determined to buy this watch.
If he spent thousands of dollars to buy a watch, he could immediately show his rich side.
He would definitely be able to attract Qin Yuxuan's attention and make her marvel and worship him. 𝐛𝗲𝐝𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥.𝐜𝐨𝗺
Later, he would find a reason to get Qin Yuxuan's contact information. Wouldn't there be more opportunities to get closer to her in the future?
The man had done similar things a few times before, so he was very familiar with this method.
The man raised his head and said, "So, they haven't bought it yet? Since that's the case, we'll buy it now!"
After saying that, the man took out a gold-rimmed bank card.
When the gorgeous woman saw this, she said happily, "Wow! Darling, you're awesome! Mwacks!"
The shop assistant did not take the card immediately. Instead, she looked at Lin Fan and Qin Yuxuan hesitantly.
"What?" The man frowned. "Do you need me to talk to your manager?"
The female shop assistant could only say, "No… No need, I'll swipe the card for you now."
Beep!
However, after swiping the bank card, the receipt did not appear.
"Sir, I'm sorry, but you don't have enough funds."
The man took the card and looked at it. "How is that possible? There's still two million yuan in this card! You must have done it wrong! Do it again!"
"I'm sorry, Sir," the shop assistant said patiently. "Perhaps you didn't hear my introduction just now.
"This watch is called Fenghua. It's made of 99 natural diamonds and sapphire glass. There are only 15 pieces in the world, and the price is 8.89 million yuan."
The man was slightly shocked.
All of his assets added up to only a few tens of millions.
Among them… included real estate.
If he were to spend hundreds of thousands on a watch, he could accept it through gritted teeth.
However, to spend 8.99 million yuan on a watch?
That was simply crazy!
Moreover, he did not have that much liquid capital.
"Darling, don't you have a company with a market value of billions?" The gorgeous beauty beside him said coquettishly. "It's only 8.99 million, and I want this watch."
Billions in market value?
Was that what he had said when was bragging to her?
The man said awkwardly, "Uhh… I don't have that much money in this card. Next time… Next time, we'll come back and buy it again."
Lin Fan, who had not said anything, sneered. "If you don't have money, then so be it. Why are you looking for so many excuses?"
When the man saw Qin Yuxuan for the first time earlier, he revealed pure lust. Lin Fan immediately knew what he was thinking.
Since that was the case, Lin Fan naturally wouldn't say anything nice.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid?" The man flew into a rage out of humiliation.
However, he quickly recovered and sneered. "Yeah, I don't have money! You were the first to look at this watch, no? Then pay up!"
To the man, Lin Fan was just a young man in his 20s.
Where would he get 8.99 million yuan?
As long as he could not fork it out, the man could mock him even more brutally later.
"When did I say I wanted to buy this watch?" Lin Fan said calmly.
The man sneered. "If you don't have the money to buy it, just say that. Some young people are just too stubborn.
"Don't tell me you think that you're being very cool? In fact, in the eyes of those who've already seen through you, you're just ridiculous. You're simply a clown!"
Lin Fan glanced at the man and pointed at the watch in the middle of the counter. He said to the shop assistant, "Excuse me, please take out this watch. We want to buy it."
