"Ridiculous, who do you think you are?" Yang Jiaqi said coldly, "I'm here today to tell you that if you're willing to cooperate, the Yang family will not object. If not, Taikang Pharmaceutical is about to reach its end!" Su Dan Novel Network
Lu Fan ignored him and walked towards the front of the road, a voice sounding out, "I'll say it again, until the very end, no one can predict the future!"
Watching his departing back, Yang Jiaqi showed disappointment. He had expected to see Lu Fan beg for mercy, but instead, his confident demeanor only made him angrier.
In his heart, the Lu Fan of the past was a village pig, how could he be compared to him in terms of status? Even now, he still felt that Lu Fan was not worthy of him.
Returning home, Lin Ke brought over a plate of fruit, "Brother Lu Fan, you must be tired after a day at work! I cut these fruits for you!"
"So kind?" Lu Fan was surprised and took a piece of fruit, "Is there something you need?"
"Ahem, it's nothing really." Lin Ke said awkwardly, "Brother Lu Fan, do you know Bailong Town?"
Lu Fan was startled and even more confused. Could this girl know his identity, or why else would she mention Bailong Town?
"Don't misunderstand, if you don't want to go, Xiao Qi and I can go together!" Lin Ke said repeatedly, "After all, Brother Lu Fan needs to focus on work!"
"So you want me to accompany you to Bailong Town?" Lu Fan chuckled, "No problem! I was just planning to go and see it myself!"
"Brother Lu Fan is also planning to go?" Lin Ke was delighted, "That's great, then I won't be lonely on the way!"
"Bailong Town has many experts, so it's naturally not to be missed!" Lu Fan nodded, letting out a sigh of relief. He thought Lin Ke had discovered something.
At the same time, by the West Lake, three figures in black appeared. They lingered by the West Lake, their expressions grave.
"Yang Beitian is about to reach the realm of a half-step Grandmaster. With his strength, no one in Qingzhou should be able to harm him!" The leading black-clothed man frowned, "But Junior Brother Yang has been missing for many days, and there are traces of him fighting someone by the West Lake. Could he have already met his end?"
"Hall Master, Deputy Hall Master Yang has profound strength, and there are not many who can harm him, let alone kill him!" The black-clothed man cupped his fist, "Could Qingzhou be a place where dragons and tigers hide?"
"Although it's a small place, this matter must be investigated thoroughly!" The leading black-clothed man said coldly, "Junior Brother Yang came seeking revenge, but who did he have a feud with?"
"Hall Master, I heard that in a few days, there will be a martial arts duel in Jiangnan. Could the person who killed Deputy Hall Master be there?" one of the black-clothed men spoke.
"That's possible!" The leading black-clothed man nodded, "If there are no clues in Qingzhou, we'll go to Bailong Town and see. As long as that person appears, I will definitely be able to detect him by his aura!"
The other two black-clothed men nodded, their expressions cold. They had held high positions for a long time and could not accept the reality of Yang Beitian's death.
A few days later, vehicles began to surge towards Bailong Town from various parts of Jiangnan.
And within Bailong Town, it was already overcrowded, with most of these people coming after hearing the news.
They did not understand martial arts, but they heard that the martial arts大会 had many experts, so they naturally wanted to come and see.
Lu Fan and Xiao Qi arrived at Bailong Town, parked the car, and headed into the town.
Han Yunhai had prepared a motorcade to pick up Lu Fan, but Lu Fan ultimately refused.
"Wow, it was really worth coming!"
As soon as they entered Bailong Town, Xiao Qi exclaimed, looking at the sea of flowers in the town, his heart filled with joy.
Lin Ke also quickly looked, with joy in her eyes.
"Mr. Lu, I didn't expect you to come!"
Just then, a voice sounded. A woman in a white dress, looking exceptionally refined against the backdrop of petals.
"Miss Bai!" Lu Fan smiled, "What a coincidence!"
"Yes!" Bai Xue said enthusiastically, "The martial arts大会 begins tomorrow, and tonight we can enjoy the scenery in Bailong Town!"
"It's indeed a good idea!" Lu Fan nodded slightly.
"I have a few friends over there, so I won't disturb you!" Bai Xue smiled, "If you have time, you can come and visit. I'm on the fourth floor of the Bailong Hotel!"
"Certainly!" Lu Fan nodded slightly.
After Bai Xue left, Xiao Qi smiled, "I really didn't expect you to know so many people. That person just now didn't seem like an ordinary person!"
"We've met a few times, but we're not close," Lu Fan shrugged.
Strolling through Bailong Town, they soon arrived at the sea of flowers. After taking some commemorative photos in the flower sea, they headed towards the main road.
"Isn't this Xiao Qi?"
Suddenly, a voice rang out. A woman wearing sunglasses, with a man's arm linked in hers, called out to Xiao Qi.
"Xu Xiaoyan, why are you here too?" Xiao Qi exclaimed in surprise, "It's been a few years, and you've become so beautiful!"
"You're so good with words!" Xu Xiaoyan smiled, "This is my boyfriend, just call him Jack!"
Xiao Qi glanced at him, feeling envious, especially Jack's muscles, which looked somewhat intimidating.
"Are you guys here specifically to watch the martial arts大会?" Xiao Qi smiled, "These are also my friends!"
Lu Fan and Lin Ke offered polite smiles, but Xu Xiaoyan did not acknowledge them. Instead, she said with a smile, "Jack is a city-level boxing champion, and he's here to participate in the大会!"
"City-level?" Xiao Qi was surprised, "It seems he's quite skilled!"
After speaking, Xiao Qi said no more. Xu Xiaoyan's attitude had already made him a little displeased. If they weren't university classmates, he would have already taken Lin Ke and the others away.
"By the way, for special reasons, it's very difficult to book rooms at the Bailong Hotel now. You need to have some connections to get a room!" Xu Xiaoyan said with a smile, "Have you booked a room?"
"This!"
Xiao Qi looked a bit embarrassed. Before coming, he had checked the prices at the Bailong Hotel, and they were already exorbitant, far beyond what they could afford.
So he had prepared to camp outside. Although it was a bit shabby, he felt it was worth it to watch the martial arts大会.
"It seems your friends don't have much money. I should have helped them book a few rooms!" Jack said with a smile, his eyes showing some disdain.
"No need for that, I've already booked two deluxe rooms!" Lu Fan chuckled, "On the seventh floor of the Bailong Hotel!"
"The seventh floor of the Bailong Hotel?" Xu Xiaoyan looked disbelieving, "That's where the rooms for many commercial bigwigs in Jiangnan are!"
Xiao Qi's face darkened. He had also inquired about it before, and the rooms on the seventh floor of the Bailong Hotel were not sold at all, or if they were, they were at astronomical prices.
He could understand Lu Fan wanting to save face for him by lying, but without doing his homework, it would ultimately be a joke.
"Xiao Qi, it seems your friends are really not that great!" Xu Xiaoyan chuckled, and with Jack's arm linked, she left.
In college, Xiao Qi was better than her in everything. Now that she could show off in front of Xiao Qi, it satisfied Xu Xiaoyan's vanity.
