Chapter 145 Ren Siyao's Schemes
"If you have any other opinions, hurry up and voice them. Otherwise, just do as I say!" Su Ruowei shouted.
Lin Fan's resignation demonstrated Su Ruowei's determination, and all the collateral relatives could only keep a low profile.
After leaving Ruowei Company, Lin Fan was bored out of his mind.
For more than a month since returning to the real world, Lin Fan had been constantly by Su Ruowei's side, never leaving her. Now that he had suddenly gone off on his own, he was at a loss for what to do.
After sorting out his thoughts, Lin Fan first went to Shancheng Group to check on the preparations for Shancheng Bank.
I also checked the progress of the southern business district project. The infrastructure planning has been completed one after another, and the next step is the construction phase.
When I was bored, I checked out Su Yulin's live stream again. I have to say, she's really good at it. This girl is born to be a live streamer.
Lin Fan spent the morning at the Shancheng Group, and in the afternoon he went to the hospital to check on Zhou Xiaojing's condition.
Zhou Xiaojing's recovery ability is exceptionally good. The doctor said she would be fully recovered in about two more months, but Lin Fan, with his Heavenly Eye, said she would be basically fully recovered in at most 40 days.
However, given Zhou Xiaojing's current condition, there is no problem with her being discharged from the hospital. It's just that there will be no one to take care of her after she is discharged, so she will stay in the hospital for recuperation.
Zhou Xiaojing was naturally unaware of this situation. She had never been hospitalized before and had always endured minor illnesses and injuries.
Lin Fan and Zhou Xiaojing said that her injury was an internal injury. Although she could not feel it in her body, she still needed to stay in the hospital for treatment. In order to better take care of her child in the future, they advised her to recover before being discharged from the hospital.
They even lied to her, saying that the hospital fees weren't expensive and that medical insurance had reimbursed most of them.
Su Zhengshuang and his group of employees have been discharged from the hospital and are recuperating at home.
Lin Fan had been busy all day, and it was only 2 PM, four hours before Su Ruowei got off work.
Feeling bored, Lin Fan went into a coffee shop to kill some time.
Once inside the coffee shop, Lin Fan found a corner seat, ordered an Americano latte, and picked up a book to read.
The book, titled "Understanding the Past and Present," compiles methods for appraising antiques from various dynasties throughout 5000 years of Chinese history. It was written by Ouyang Yiming, a national treasure-level appraiser in China.
This book is the culmination of a lifetime's work.
However, few people can truly understand this book. Laymen regard it as worthless, while experts treasure it, yet few can delve into its depths.
Lin Fan read with great interest. With the help of his Heavenly Eye, he could read ten lines at a glance, yet he still remembered them vividly.
Just as I was engrossed in my book, a sharp voice rang out from the side:
"Isn't this the good-for-nothing Lin Fan? How come you're still alive?"
Lin Fan glanced up and saw that the man was Yang Xudong, whom he had met once before.
The guy Shen Yunlan had previously invited to go on a blind date with Su Ruowei was the one who was scared away by Li Wang, one of the Four Evils of Shancheng, who came to cause trouble.
Lin Fan didn't bother to look at them a second time, so he lowered his head and continued reading.
Seeing Lin Fan's reaction, Yang Xudong understood what was going on:
The Four Evils of Mountain City will do anything as long as they are paid enough. That Li Wang from before must have been hired by Lin Fan to put on an act!
His purpose was to show off in front of Su Ruowei, and he must have spent all his savings to make Su Ruowei's family respect him.
Yang Xudong clicked his tongue again, thinking that the money spent on this good-for-nothing was worthwhile. In the blink of an eye, Su Ruowei won the Lingjueding Villa, allowing this good-for-nothing to benefit from it.
"You're such a good-for-nothing, but you're actually quite cunning," Yang Xudong mocked.
Lin Fan's lips twitched slightly. He didn't understand what Bi was saying and didn't want to pay attention to him.
"You actually managed to scare me, kid. It was a close call. But thinking about it now, it makes sense. How could a Transcendent Realm expert like Li Wang be defeated by a piece of trash like you?" Yang Xudong continued to mock.
"You really got a great deal! How comfortable is your villa at the top of the mountain? To be a gigolo like you is quite an achievement!"
Lin Fan's eyes lit up when he saw a beautiful Western Zhou bronze ding (a type of ancient Chinese cooking vessel) in the book.
"Don't dare to speak now? Did I touch a sore spot? If you're so capable, let's have a go and I'll show you what a real martial artist is!" Yang Xudong continued to shout.
Lin Fan frowned disdainfully: "You? A martial artist?"
"I'm a master at the third stage of Body Refinement." Yang Xudong curled his lip again: "It's useless to talk to trash like you, you don't know anything!"
Lin Fan was puzzled. Body Refinement Realm?
In the blink of an eye, recalling it: wasn't this what that little girl said before? In the present world, before the entry-level Transcendent Realm, there is an additional Body Refining Realm, which is even divided into nine stages.
Lin Fan was curious. How weak could the so-called Body Refinement Realm be? And only at the 3rd stage? Wasn't that the worst of the worst?
"Scared now!" Yang Xudong thought Lin Fan was frightened when he saw that Lin Fan didn't speak.
Suddenly, a pretty figure walked into the coffee shop. She had short hair, wore a black dress, and looked neat and capable.
As soon as he entered, he looked around and then jogged over after locking his gaze on Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked surprised. Wasn't this the little girl Ren Siyao from yesterday?
When Yang Xudong saw Ren Siyao, he assumed she was looking for him. After all, it was just him and Lin Fan here, so it was impossible for her to be looking for Lin Fan, that good-for-nothing.
Furthermore, both of them belonged to the Huayun Sect, and Ren Siyao was a well-known beauty in the Huayun Sect.
Many people pursued Ren Siyao, but she was very aloof and kept everyone at arm's length.
I never expected that such an icy beauty would take the initiative to contact me.
Yang Xudong stepped forward with a fawning smile: "Ren—"
"Get lost, don't block my way!" Ren Siyao shoved Yang Xudong aside and walked straight toward Lin Fan.
Yang Xudong then realized that Ren Siyao had come to cause trouble for Lin Fan.
He realized this was a golden opportunity to shine and he couldn't miss it.
"Siyao, I'll beat this piece of trash for you!" Yang Xudong stepped forward and was about to throw a punch.
"Snapped!"
Ren Siyao slapped Yang Xudong across the face: "I told you to get lost! Can't you understand human language?"
Stunned by the slap, Yang Xudong covered his swollen cheek and asked in confusion, "Ren—"
He had barely uttered a word when Ren Siyao raised her hand and shouted angrily, "Get lost!"
"I'm leaving, I'm getting out!" Yang Xudong left the coffee shop with a face full of question marks.
As soon as Yang Xudong left, Ren Siyao sat down next to Lin Fan enthusiastically: "Lin Fan, do you want to join the Huayun Sect today?"
Lin Fan instinctively began searching his body, and sure enough, a tracking device had been placed on him.
Lin Fan crushed the tracker with two fingers, shaking his head helplessly. If this were a tracking technique from another world, they could detect it at a glance.
But this is the first time I've ever seen such a high-tech gadget in the world.
Learn from your mistakes!
"Tell me, why are you following me?" Lin Fan said speechlessly.
Ren Siyao smiled and said, "I'll let you join the Huayun Sect!"
"I wouldn't dare. You carry a tracking device with you all the time, it scares me," Lin Fan said, pursing his lips.
"Oh, is it for work? I won't do it again." Ren Siyao feigned grievance: "What do you do for a living? I saw you running around to four or five places today, and I was chasing after you the whole time. I'm exhausted!"
