1359: Chapter 1258: The Miserable Father Lin 1359: Chapter 1258: The Miserable Father Lin “Get lost, stop ssing around.
He’s my dad, after all.
If nothing else, at least respect him for that, and stop being so impulsive.”
The sound of the drizzling rain carried a hint of pleading, sothing Su Ran had never heard before, suggesting that Father Lin held a significant position at ho.
“Since you’ve said as much, I’ll give you that respect and give him one more chance.
If he doesn’t learn and brings his temper into the ga again, I’ll keep him blocked!”
Su Ran said unapologetically, the more dominant his behavior, the lesser the chances of being recognized, a psychological tactic he used to confuse Drizzling Rain and her father.
He also wondered why Yu Jing hadn’t logged in.
Was there sothing going on?
Still, Su Ran didn’t dare to call Yu Jing now.
If his phone was being tapped, that could be the end of him.
“Young man, you sure have a temper—blocking people the mont you disagree.
So, you’ve won the championship and forgotten who you are?”
As soon as Father Lin was added as a friend, his ssage ca through, clearly conveying his dissatisfaction.
*pah.*
Continue blocking.
Su Ran couldn’t be bothered to exchange another word with this self-righteous man.
He didn’t reckon his own identity and was still arrogant in the ga, not learning after being blocked once.
Such a person was not to be indulged!
Unconvinced?
1-on-1!
After another pleading from Drizzling Rain, Su Ran reluctantly added Father Lin as a friend one last ti.
“Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, I see the tricks you have up your sleeve now.
Let’s get straight to the point today.
Have you already sold those pills transford from the Dream Mirror?”
It proved that twice but not thrice, Father Lin had learned his lesson well this ti.
He did not provoke Su Ran again.
As for the identity of Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained, Father Lin simply dismissed that idea given their significant personality differences that he couldn’t even imagine connecting the dots.
No wonder Yu Jing reacted so strongly.
This finally made sense to him.
“Why should I tell you about such a taboo topic?”
“Heh, young man, you do have a decent sense of caution.
Let formally introduce myself; I am Lin, Drizzling Rain’s father.
Strictly speaking, we are not strangers.
Less reservations now?”
Father Lin said cheerfully, showing no signs of anger from being blocked by Su Ran earlier.
His adeptness at hiding his emotions was so deep, if he dived, he wouldn’t resurface for a long ti.
“I don’t know you.”
Su Ran wouldn’t fall for that—no good deed cos without an ulterior motive; either treachery or theft was at play, hoping to extract information about the Dream Mirror was just impossible!
“Don’t act like strangers, you are close with my daughter; surely I an no harm?”
“I really don’t know you.”
Father Lin was nearly choked by Su Ran’s uncooperative attitude.
“Comrade Overturning Water, I co to you with absolute sincerity to negotiate.
This ti, I want to buy the Dream Mirror you’ve acquired; money is no object!”
Father Lin’s voice was magnetic, soothing to the listener.
After pondering for a mont, he continued, “It’s just a ga prop.
Sell it and you could be rich overnight, buy houses and cars and splurge as you please.
Don’t you want such a life?”
“Not interested.”
Su Ran replied very straightforwardly.
He wasn’t sure how Father Lin had co to suspect him as Spilt Water Can’t Be Regained.
He had initially wished to probe this man’s words, but then the topic shifted back to buying the Dream Mirror, dampening Su Ran’s mood to continue the conversation.
“Look, uncle, we’re both busy.
Let’s talk another ti, I’m about to run out of ti on this task!”
“Hey, don’t rush, let ask one last question,”
Feeling frustrated by Su Ran’s lack of cooperation, Father Lin felt like all the words he prepared were useless and could only bring up his most pressing concern, “Overturning Water, let’s be open and upfront here, I hope you can tell how you safely brought the magical pill into reality.”
“I really don’t want to ‘open the skylight’ with you—it’s the dead of winter, are you trying to freeze soone to death?”
Su Ran decided to stick to his refusal, not giving Father Lin any chance at all.
After all, he had already offended him several tis, so one more wouldn’t make much difference.
“My mom taught not to talk to strangers.
I’m only making an exception because of President Yu Jing’s good graces, so I advise you to give up on that idea!”
“You!”
Father Lin gasped, feeling his blood flow slow down as he was about to say sothing, only to sadly discover that he had been blacklisted again.
Three tis in a row—this might be the darkest mont in Father Lin’s life, making him feel like a failure.
His pride was shattered, and he aged noticeably, his gaze lost focus.
“Ugh, is this too cruel?
If he gets a stroke out of anger, Yu Jing won’t let it slide…”
Su Ran scratched his smooth head, feeling a bit guilty, but he knew that being nice to Father Lin would only expose him in the end.
Rather than being cruel to himself, it was better to let Father Lin suffer.
There was no helping it, since Father Lin insisted on friending him, nobody to bla but himself!
Surprisingly, Yu Jing didn’t send another ssage to question him, signaling that the uncle was conscious of his dignity.
Being blacklisted repeatedly wasn’t exactly sothing to be proud of.
But this was better; without interruptions, Su Ran felt light and free.
“I might as well get the Celestial Realm quest done for that Heavy Smoker, so he can’t accuse of being disloyal.”
Su Ran returned to the village, fed the Sky-reaching Vine a few more drops of Heaven and Earth Spirit Liquid, and then finally got in touch with the Heavy Smoker.
“Overturning Water, brother, no offense, but Wan’er hasn’t said a word since she ca back—are you sure you haven’t upset her again?”
“As honest as heaven and earth, I haven’t even seen her; how could I have upset her?”
Su Ran felt himself more wronged than Dou E.
Why did it always seem that when Wan’er got upset, he was to bla?
“I really don’t know what’s going on between you two; better ask her yourself.
By the way, if you’re free, co quickly to the Celestial Realm and help with the story—we’re just missing you.”
“Alright, wait for .”
Hearing what the Heavy Smoker said, Su Ran was filled with doubts and knew he had to ask the person involved to get so clarity.
With so ti still on his hands, he opened up the chat box with Wan’er and sent a greeting ssage.
“Busy woman, how co you have ti to expose now?”
“What exposure?
Are you okay?”
Wan’er replied quickly without using voice ssages, and Su Ran could sense from her words that her upset was entirely his fault!
Su Ran inwardly cursed, but he couldn’t recall what he had done to offend her recently.
“When Bai Bian Yao Ling was attacking the city, you were already in the village; why didn’t you show up?”
“Big sis, that’s not my territory, and I wasn’t there.
How could I show up?
Isn’t that making it difficult for ?”
“Ah, it turns out I was misled by Nan Qiang, that territory isn’t yours, why was I even angry?”
The Creamy Youngster finally realized that the territory belonged to Su Ran’s brother, making his long-held resentnt quite awkward.
