Compared to Yang Feng's restraint, Lin Fan was much more casual. He pulled up a small stool and sat down, grabbed a handful of peanuts, flicked his fingers, and a peanut imdiately flew directly into his mouth with precision!
Lin Fan savored the taste, chewing away!
Before long, steam arose from the wine pot, the wine was heated up, and Bai Weiwei, like a little wife, poured a cup for each of the three n!
"Old Long, let
toast to you first, consider this my New Year's greeting!" Lin Fan was the first to raise his glass and said with a smile.
"Hehe, you cheeky brat, having my wine and toasting
for New Year, you sure have the nerve!" Dragon King laughed heartily, but it was clear that he was quite happy.
Over the years, every New Year, only Bai Weiwei has stayed by his side. Though many of his forr subordinates co to pay their respects, most are sowhat intimidated by the Dragon King, fairly restrained; only Lin Fan suits Dragon King's taste!
Of course, there was another person who wasn't afraid of the Dragon King, and that was Ye Shouxin. However, that old man appeared as a reclusive immortal all day long, and aside from business matters, they rarely had much to say to each other!
Nonetheless, they were once brothers who entrusted their lives to one another. If anything were to happen to one, the other would spare no expense!
This is what brothers are!
Shared classrooms, shoulders in battle, nights of pleasure, shared spoils; among these bonds of iron, comrades in arms hold one of the strongest!
The three did not hesitate and gulped down their drinks.
The heated wine was quite hot, and upon entering the mouth, it felt hot, but as it slid down the throat into the belly, it was very comforting, filling the entire body with warmth.
Bai Weiwei filled each of their glasses again!
Lin Fan flicked his fingers, sending another peanut flying into his mouth, chewing as he spoke to Dragon King: "Old Long, can you tell
the reason you called
here now?"
Dragon King also ate a peanut before speaking: "It has to do with the three families you've offended."
"Oh? Huang Family, Liu Family, Chen Family?" Lin Fan responded with a faint smile, his eyes subconsciously squinting!
Dragon King nodded and said: "Latest informaiton suggests these three families are working in secret planning a major strike against you."
"Haha, not that I'm boasting, but those three don't scare . Honestly, Old Long, luckily this is in Huaxia, and I abide by my promise not to cause trouble dostically. If this were abroad, they'd have reported to King Yama by now." Lin Fan said calmly.
"As you ntioned, since this is dostically, you have to abide by the law, making this a bit more complicated to resolve!" Dragon King said solemnly.
"What's wrong?" Lin Fan sensed sothing in Dragon King's words.
Dragon King didn't rush to explain, instead sipping his wine, before speaking: "To my knowledge, they've got evidence of you killing Huang Wei!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Fan's brow furrowed tightly!
If this truly has been detected, it indeed spells trouble for Lin Fan!
Moreover, the Huang Family is already an influential dostic family with extensive connections. If they use their network to fra him, retaliation becos exceedingly difficult for Lin Fan!
This alone isn't enough to instill fear in Lin Fan; he chuckled: "Water floods, earth builds; soldiers co, generals resist. If they play dirty, I have to bend the rules!"
"Kiddo, causing trouble dostically is off-limits; should anything happen, I'll help you find a way. But if you disregard principles, then there's no staying in Huaxia for you. If you can't set foot on Huaxia soil, then your little girlfriends are in for a hard ti!" Dragon King cautioned.
Lin Fan fell silent!
Now, he is no longer alone; he must be responsible for many, and can no longer operate as before, going solo and unrestrained!
"However, if they truly dare to act, I'm not that easy to bully!" Lin Fan retorted coldly.
"Don't rush, the reason for this eting is because we've also got evidence on those three families. If we can validate this evidence, it's enough to destroy them!" Dragon King revealed.
"What evidence?" Lin Fan asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity.
Dragon King remained silent, signaling to Yang Feng.
Yang Feng said: "Mr. Lin, you must be familiar with their backgrounds, but recently we discovered interactions between them and the Mitsubishi Conglorate; the evidence of these interactions is yet uncertain."
"However, one thing is certain, Chen Family has established contact with Mitsubishi Conglorate. Being a comrcial family, they have concealed this under business collaborations, preventing us from intervening legally." Yang Feng explained.
"What a crafty move!" Lin Fan sneered.
"Mitsubishi Conglorate's sly ambitions are well-known; allowing their collaboration isn't good news. Chen Family's business angle forbids intervention, hence soliciting your assistance, Mr. Lin." Yang Feng stated.
"Am I nothing more than a hitman now?" Lin Fan responded with a wry smile.
"Nonetheless, we and Mr. Lin share the sa enemies, and we will continue to secretly assist Mr. Lin!"
"I believe there's surely a conspiracy between them, so we must strike first to dismantle the three families, cutting off Mitsubishi Conglorate's hands and eyes in Huaxia. Being foreign influence though, leveraging your international capability is necessary!" Yang Feng continued.
"With Mitsubishi Conglorate being one of the world's top three conglorates, investigating them isn't a simple task." Lin Fan noted sternly, feeling the gravity of the situation.
"I think there's soone who might be able to assist you!" Dragon King interjected.
"Who?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
"Child clan's heir, Deke!"
Dragon King stated: "These three conglorates appear peacefully coexisting, but secretly friction is constant, and in each other's factions, spies must be planted. If you enlist Deke's help, you might gain surprising results."
"Deke... Haha! Asking him for help is possible, but…"
Lin Fan didn't continue!
Deke, being a businessman, seeks interest in all things. If asking him for help, it'd likely consu the condition promised by the Child Clan!
"Previously, I might've hesitated, but just yesterday, I encountered assassins related to them upon interrogation! This grudge is one I won't overlook easily!" Lin Fan squinted, a chilling glare running through his eyes.
"Huang Family resorted to assassins?"
Both Dragon King and Yang Feng were taken aback!
"Indeed, I learned this after interrogating the culprits. Old Long, even if you hadn't called
to Yanjing, I would make the visit personally to settle this feud!" Lin Fan spoke with murderous intent in his tone!
