Kern was baffled. Just now, while he was upstairs discussing business cooperation with Xiao Chubing, he had heard the commotion downstairs.
It was a back and forth flurry of activity, and unless one was deaf, they’d have known soone was causing trouble. Kern’s mood soured; was he really getting slapped in the face during his first party here?
But not coming down was one thing; seeing what was happening left him dumbfounded. He never dread that he would encounter Ling Fan here, of all people.
He was frozen for a mont, unable to believe it. Although he had always wanted to et Ling Fan, this was just too unexpected!
Moreover, Beiming seed to have a complicated relationship with the woman by his side. It seed like he might have misunderstood sothing.
At that thought, Kern’s scalp went numb. Being misunderstood by Ling Beiming was not good news. He had calculated everything but this—Xiao Chubing was his woman?
The onlooking crowd was also sowhat stunned, not quite understanding the current situation. But they had grown used to it, since they hadn’t been clear-headed all day!
Linda finally snapped out of her daze and, to the astonishnt of everyone watching, violently tore the hem of her floor-length gown, transforming it into a knee-high sheath dress!
Then, with a shake of her body, she began to tap dance!
"Tap tap tap..."
Linda gyrated her seductive figure, whirling around Ling Fan in a wild dance, and finally stood in front of him, wrapped her arms around Ling Fan’s neck, and forcefully jumped onto him, her legs tightly encircling Ling Fan’s waist!
"My God, Beiming, it’s truly divine favor to encounter you here. We always knew you couldn’t possibly be in trouble; you truly are our legend, War Emperor Beiming!" Linda exclaid excitedly.
While speaking, she planted a firm kiss on Ling Fan’s cheek, leaving a pair of bright red lipstick marks.
This scene left the crowd dumbfounded as if they were turned into wood.
It also left Xiao Chubing and the other won in shock, their faces filled with confusion. But now she understood that Ling Fan actually knew these two people.
And once again, she heard the title War Emperor Beiming. She had occasionally heard Ling Fan refer to himself in this way before, but she had never understood what it ant!
Xiao Chubing thought quickly, silently saying to herself, "It looks like I’ll have to find an opportunity to ask Kern about Ling Fan’s past!"
"Thud!"
Linda jumped down from Ling Fan and tidied her hair, which had beco sowhat ssy from dancing.
"Beiming, are you satisfied with my welcoming gift? We’ve missed you so much. Kern even launched a terrifying war for you!" Linda said with a smile.
Ling Fan’s cold expression eased slightly. Seeing this, Linda secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as did Kern.
It had to be admitted that often, a woman indeed proves to be the best conciliator. Had it not been for Linda’s presence...
And since Linda happened to have a close relationship with Ling Fan, today’s scene might have been difficult to resolve, and the misunderstanding could have persisted.
"I have a wife; be mindful of your actions next ti!" Ling Fan said irritably, wiping the lipstick mark off his face.
Linda grinned and, as if performing a magic trick, pulled out a wet wipe, "Here, let help you clean it!"
Ling Fan took the wet wipe, "No need, I’ve got it!"
At this mont, Kern also approached, "Beiming, it’s really unexpected to et you here. Linda and I were actually planning to co looking for you!"
Ling Fan wiped the red mark off his face with the wet wipe and glanced sideways at Kern, "Don’t you think you owe an explanation? Xiao Chubing is my wife. Are you hitting on her? You’ve crossed a line; sorry, we can’t be friends!"
Kern shook his head repeatedly. "NO, NO, NO! Beiming, you’ve got it all wrong. Madam Xiao and I really just t, I swear it!
If I had known she was your wife now. How could I have co empty-handed? I had no idea about the relationship between you two. This really is a coincidence. I can only explain it as so kind of inexplicable fate!"
Ling Fan pondered for a mont, guessing this guy wouldn’t possibly lie. His identity had only been exposed because of the Xiangjiang Tang Family.
In such a short ti, Kern couldn’t have possibly found out his information that quickly. This is Huaxia, not overseas.
"When did you find out about ?" Ling Fan asked indifferently.
"Just before I t Madam Xiao, I accidentally learned so information about you from a killer mission on the Underworld’s website. I hadn’t even had ti to confirm your location!" Kern explained, knowing that lying in front of Ling Fan was pointless.
Ling Fan nodded. "Hmm, Huaxia is not a place for you. I advise you not to consider doing anything here!"
"No no, Beiming, you’ve misunderstood, we are here to do legitimate business!" Kern explained.
Ling Fan sized up Kern, wondering in his heart if this guy really did conduct legitimate business?
"Beiming, don’t look at like that. That gaze makes uncomfortable. Tell , are you in so kind of trouble? Do you need my help to solve it?" Kern said with a smile after scanning the scene in the hall.
"No need. I can handle my own matters. However, I must remind you to stay away from Xiao Chubing in the future. She won’t do business with you!" Ling Fan said indifferently.
Xiao Chubing, standing nearby, was utterly bewildered.
"Aren’t these two acquainted? They seem to have a decent relationship. Why won’t he let cooperate with him?" Xiao Chubing was puzzled, not quite understanding, though she had been getting along quite well with Kern up until now.
However, today’s events had given her a clearer understanding: before Ling Fan married her, he was definitely not just an ordinary person.
Kern’s words had revealed a lot of information, which she had silently taken note of in her heart, word for word.
"Damn, does this guy actually know the higher-ups at the Beck Consortium? Seems like he’s quite familiar with them too. What on earth does he do?" soone in the crowd couldn’t help but ask.
The onlookers, none of whom knew the details about Ling Fan, all shook their heads. Xu Sicong wore an "I’ve been dealt a rotten hand" expression, thinking harder the more he observed the guy’s unfathomable nature.
Feng Shuya and the other won were also feeling a tidal wave of shock in their hearts. After all their busy efforts and exerting themselves to have a conversation so difficult to co by with the Beck Consortium, it turned out they had to look to Ling Fan for his approval?
The three won wore expressions of disbelief, unable to say whether they were admiring or shocked, but feeling as if all their usual excellence vanished in front of Ling Fan.
At this mont, outside the Pearl Hotel, a middle-aged man in a black Audi continuously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, his shirt buttons undone at the chest.
He had co in a rush of anger upon receiving the news of his son’s mishap at the hotel. But halfway there, he received a special phone call. A call so significant it could directly terminate his political career.

He couldn’t even dare imagine what a terrifying figure his son had managed to offend!
So much so that he sent back the people he’d brought with him halfway there. Alone, accompanied only by a driver, he ca with the express purpose of apologizing!
The man got out of the Audi and strode towards the hotel’s banquet hall. Upon appearing at the doorstep, he imdiately called out, "Which one of you is Ling Fan!"
Everyone in the hall, including Ling Fan, turned to look at the newcor.
"Sang... Sang Zhigang?" Soone instantly recognized the Chief of Central Sea, uttering in a panic.
Tan Hao, lying on the ground, suddenly perked up, muttering tremblingly, "Sang Zhigang has finally arrived. This kid’s done for now!"
