Chapter 11 Did You Cause Trouble Again?

"Hmph, you think you can act all mysterious. Just you wait. I don't believe I can't break through your facade." Liang Xi thought to herself and glanced at Lin Fan again.

After a while, the car drove into a mountain villa.

There were bodyguards in black Zhongshan suits both inside and outside the villa. The entire villa exuded an air of grandeur and luxury.

"When we just bought this villa, even I was quite surprised. I don't believe you can still remain indifferent..."

After getting out of the car, Liang Xi thought to herself. She quickly stole a glance at Lin Fan with her peripheral vision. When she saw that Lin Fan still had that indifferent expression, the proud look that had just appeared on her little face froze instantly.

"Come with me." Liang Xi said angrily with a pout, swaying her delicate figure and walking ahead.

At this moment, Lin Fan didn't think as much as she did. His mind was not on this at all.

When they entered the hall, Elder Liang was leisurely sitting on the sofa. When he saw Lin Fan, he stood up, smiled at Lin Fan, and said politely, "Have a seat."

Lin Fan nodded, and without any restraint, he sat down directly.

When Elder Liang saw Lin Fan's demeanor, a trace of admiration flashed across his face without being noticed. Which younger generation wasn't cautious and respectful in front of him?

On the contrary, Lin Fan's demeanor made Elder Liang like him even more. After a long while, he slowly said, "I'm sorry. I sent someone to investigate your background before, and I accidentally found out that your parents' company is now facing the crisis of going bankrupt."

Hearing this, Lin Fan nodded but still didn't say anything.

"Don't worry. I have no ill intentions." Elder Liang said again, "I invited you here just to make a deal with you."

Lin Fan glanced at Elder Liang indifferently and remained silent.

Seeing this, Elder Liang slightly raised his eyes and looked at Lin Fan, then continued, "As long as you're willing to follow me, I'll make your parents' company become the leading enterprise in City B within a year."

"I believe you also know that for a company on the verge of bankruptcy, without help, there won't be much of a turnaround."

Lin Fan took a brief look at Elder Liang and naturally understood what he meant.

Lin Fan also knew that his parents must be in a difficult situation right now. But Lin Fan hated being threatened the most in his life.

Moreover, he was no longer that twenty-year-old young man. Even if his parents' company really went bankrupt, he had plenty of ways to revive it.

When Elder Liang saw that Lin Fan didn't speak, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face. He said again, "Lin Fan, to be honest with you, I'm doing this because I admire you. As long as you follow me, you'll surely achieve great success in the future. I can fulfill all your wishes."

"Sorry, I'm not interested." Lin Fan glanced at Elder Liang indifferently, then turned around and left directly.

Elder Liang was slightly stunned. Looking at Lin Fan's departing back, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Grandpa." Liang Xi beside him also looked at Lin Fan's departing back in surprise and softly called out to Elder Liang.

Elder Liang squinted his eyes and fell into deep thought. It was a long while before he came back to his senses.

"Xi'er, what do you think of this Lin Fan?" Elder Liang turned his head to look at Liang Xi and asked softly.

Liang Xi thought for a moment, pondered for a while, and then said, "At first, I also thought this person was nothing special. But after a brief contact with him later, there are only two words that describe my impression of him, and that is'mysterious'."

"Oh?" Elder Liang was slightly taken aback.

"Grandpa, you know that your granddaughter has always had a sharp eye for people. Although I still can't see through him clearly for now, this person is definitely not as simple as he seems on the surface." Liang Xi said.

"Xi'er, it's rare for you to give someone such a high evaluation based on your standards. You're not..." Elder Liang said with a mischievous smile.

"Grandpa, what are you talking about?" Liang Xi said angrily.

"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. Do you think we should try to recruit this person?" Elder Liang asked seriously.

Liang Xi pondered for a moment. After a while, she replied, "Generally, arrogant people have two extremes. Either they are completely useless, or they really have the ability to be arrogant. Which type do you think he belongs to, Grandpa?"

"Hehe, so according to what you said, do I need to go there in person?" Elder Liang said with a smile.

"If we can recruit a useful person like this, Xi'er thinks that even if you lower your status a bit, Grandpa, it's worth it." Liang Xi said softly.

"En, okay." Elder Liang nodded slightly, as if he had already made a decision.

...

As for Lin Fan, he didn't pause much on the way back. After arriving home, he went directly to his room.

Regarding his parents' company, after thinking it over, Lin Fan thought that the only way was to make friends with some wealthy and powerful people to secretly help. Originally, Lin Fan was also willing to make a deal with Elder Liang, but the other party's tone and attitude from the start made Lin Fan dislike it.

Since the deal couldn't be made, Lin Fan didn't bother to say more.

After thinking for a while, he gathered his thoughts, sat cross-legged, and immediately entered the cultivation state. To prevent Gu Yajing from suddenly barging in, Lin Fan even locked the door.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, it was the evening of the next day.

Lin Fan's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, and a flash of light passed through his eyes.

Lin Fan exhaled a mouthful of turbid air lightly and then walked straight towards the bathroom.

In the bathroom, Lin Fan looked down at his body and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

At this time, his strength was already stable, and it was only a matter of time before he entered the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Lin Fan!"

"Lin Fan, are you in there?"

Just then, Gu Yajing's panicked voice came from downstairs and reached Lin Fan's ears.

Picking up a towel to dry the water droplets on his body, Lin Fan casually put on a set of clothes and went out.

Gu Yajing's little face was filled with anxiety, and she was pacing back and forth in front of the door.

"What's wrong?" Lin Fan asked as he rubbed his wet hair with his hand.

When Gu Yajing saw Lin Fan, the anxiety on her face became even more pronounced. She said anxiously, "Lin Fan, did you cause some trouble again?"

Lin Fan looked at Gu Yajing in confusion and said indifferently, "No."

"How is that possible? If you didn't cause any trouble, why are those people here looking for you?" A trace of confusion flashed across Gu Yajing's little face, and it was obvious that she didn't believe Lin Fan's words.

Hearing Gu Yajing's words, Lin Fan still didn't show much expression on his face. He just said in a deep voice, "What people?"

"All luxury cars, all people in black clothes, all wearing suits and sunglasses. They're right downstairs, and they keep looking towards this small building of yours. When I came back, one of them even stopped me, but I didn't dare to pay attention."

Gu Yajing patted her chest. Before Lin Fan could reply, she said again, "If you really got into some trouble, why don't you tell me about it? Maybe I can help you."

Lin Fan looked at Gu Yajing, who was half a head shorter than him, and a trace of a smile flashed across his face. He replied, "I really didn't cause any trouble. You stay here, and I'll go down and take a look."

"Better not go down." When Gu Yajing heard this, a trace of fear flashed across her little face. She reached out and tugged at the corner of Lin Fan's clothes and said softly.

Lin Fan looked at Gu Yajing with a smile, took her hand that was tugging at his clothes away, and said with a laugh, "Otherwise, should we just wait for them to come up?"
