Lin Fan moved (edited)

Even though Lin Fan might have only intended to frighten Yang Qingyue as Ling Qingyu had done and persuaded, she wasn't going to accept such a move.

So, she expressed her strong and firm stance that she would not tolerate the slightest threat.

"Mr. Lin, we know you have ample experience and plan to retire here," Ling Qingyu began, systematically listing what Lin Fan had done in the past months.

Not a single detail was omitted—from saving a mother and daughter, traveling to another province to meet an aristocratic lady, and thoroughly eliminating a small gang, leaving no one alive.

While Lan Xi broke out in a cold sweat, Lin Fan's expression turned stern. "Are you investigating me?"

"Shouldn't we?" Ling Qingyu smiled. "Among the unstable factors, you rank first. The greatest courtesy we've extended is ignoring your past deeds, which are enough to land you in prison."
