However, just as she was turning around, a cold and deep voice came from behind her, "Stop right there!"

Startled, Yellow Xiaoya froze in place, shivering and already sweating cold beads on her back.

She had never heard such a terrifying voice, nor had she ever felt such a frightening presence; it was truly petrifying.

It wasn't only them; even her old classmates had never seen such a terrifying Lin Yifan.

In the past, Lin Yifan was the weakest in the class, but now, not one dared to utter a word.

"Hmph!"

Seeing everyone so scared, especially Yellow Xiaoya, a slight smile curled at the corner of Lin Yifan's mouth.

He hadn't intended to show off, but Yellow Xiaoya had forced his hand; so he might as well put on a bit of an act.

"Turn around!"

Lin Yifan ordered, leaving no room for doubt.

You could choose not to turn, but you would have to withstand the consequences of that choice; this was the invisible threat of momentum.

Now without bodyguards to protect her, Yellow Xiaoya dared not defy Lin Yifan's command, so she turned around tremulously and looked at him.

Suddenly, she saw a pair of devilish eyes staring fixedly at her, as though they wanted to devour her whole.

Yellow Xiaoya staggered back a few steps, panic-stricken.

"What... what kind of ghostly look is this, why is it so terrifying?"

Her heart thumped uncontrollably, and it took a long time to calm down.

"Hmph!"

A cold smirk appeared on Lin Yifan's lips, very self-satisfied; this was exactly the effect he wanted, to instill fear in Yellow Xiaoya.

Seeing Lin Yifan's stern and ghostly smile, Yellow Xiaoya felt an uneasy premonition and then asked, "What... what are you trying to... to do?"

"Weren't you trying to kill me just now? Come on then! I'm sitting right here," Lin Yifan taunted.

Although she was seething inside, Yellow Xiaoya couldn't muster up any anger; because right now, fear completely consumed her, and all she could feel was terror.

"Heh heh! I was just joking earlier, Lin, don't take it seriously," Yellow Xiaoya said with a sheepish grin, a rare moment in over a decade where she had to lower her head to Lin Yifan.

"No! I've taken it seriously! Come on, kill me! I'm giving you the chance!" Lin Yifan continued to challenge, not willing to easily let Yellow Xiaoya off the hook.

"Damn it!"

Yellow Xiaoya clenched her teeth in anger, truly wishing she could charge over and murder this arrogant pauper; but her rational mind told her that it wasn't feasible.

"Lin, I am a law-abiding good citizen, not interested in killing anyone, so you better let me off," she pleaded.

"No! I told you to come here, so come here! No more whining," Lin Yifan commanded, brooking no argument.

As he spoke, he released a strong pressure invisibly, causing Yellow Xiaoya to tremble violently.

"Damn it! What is this aura? Why is it so terrifying?"

Yellow Xiaoya shivered and felt extremely frightened.

She had never seen such a scary Lin Yifan before, truly never.

The next moment, she was forced to move her feet and walk forward.

She couldn't dare to defy Lin Yifan's command, because she was afraid of death.

Despite her usual boldness and arrogance, when it came to crunch time, she would cower if she needed to.

Upon reaching Lin Yifan's side, she stood there in trepidation, her fingers trembling involuntarily.

The Lin Yifan of today is no longer the one who used to be bullied. Now, he's tall and mighty with bulging muscles; even his aura has turned icy cold, causing those who come close to feel their scalps tingle.

Lin Yifan picked up the dinner knife from the table and threw it in front of Yellow, commanding, "Kill me now!"

"Lin, stop joking. How could I possibly kill you?" Yellow refused Lin Yifan's request.

Since Lin Yifan dared to ask her to do so, he must have come prepared, so she must not be fooled.

"Who's joking with you? Will you kill me or not? If you don't, I'll have to kill you!" Lin Yifan threatened.

He was testing Yellow's conscience. If Yellow still had the heart of a Poisonous Scorpion, he would not let her off easily.

It was a choice with no way out, either she dies, or Lin Yifan dies—of course, she definitely couldn't kill Lin Yifan.

After much deliberation, Yellow gritted her teeth and decided to take a gamble by trying to kill Lin Yifan.

"Damn! You forced me into this!"

The next moment, she could no longer hold back and immediately grabbed the dinner knife from the table and stabbed at Lin Yifan's heart.

"Boom!"

Before the knife could get close, Yellow was sent flying backward, knife and all.

In the end, she crashed heavily against the hard wall of the private room before coming to a stop.

"Hmph! 'Woman's heart, most poisonous.' That saying is indeed correct," Lin Yifan sneered.

Now, he had completely lost all affection for Yellow.

On the other hand, the injured Yellow was incredibly shocked.

She didn't know how Lin Yifan managed to send her flying without lifting a finger; it was terrifying, and she did not wish to try it a second time.

No wonder her two bodyguards were taken down by Lin Yifan without even getting close to him; so that was why.

"Could this be what they call a Cultivator? No way, right? When did he become one? Didn't he join the army?" Yellow was puzzled.

Having spent time in high society recently and met all sorts of people, including sons of noble Clans, she knew that a kind of human known as Cultivators existed in the world.

The difference between Cultivators and ordinary people is that the former can cast spells, using a unique power to do anything; hence, she quickly made the connection.

If Lin Yifan was truly a Cultivator, that would be terrifying; her current power simply couldn't match up!

Now, recalling what Lin Yifan had said at the beginning of the banquet: "I even dared to swindle a Clan Family Head. What wouldn't I dare to do?"

She couldn't help feeling a shiver down her spine.

If what Lin Yifan said was true, then there would be no one in the world who could oppose him.

No wonder Lin Yifan had the courage to say those words and stop Tang Jing from marrying the Zhao Family heir; it was because he had the strength.

"Swindling the Family Head of a Clan... Could it be...?"

As she continued to ponder, Yellow grew even more fearful.

She had heard about last Friday's incident on Dragon Walk Street. She only knew that a young man publicly swindled the Tian Family Head out of several hundred billion, and then there was no further news.

"Several hundred billion! His clothes..."

Upon closer examination, Yellow finally noticed something revealing.

It turned out that Lin Yifan was wearing clothes from "Leathers," a world-class designer brand, no wonder they looked so plain, so ugly, and so unfashionable.

"Damn, I must be blind as a bat," Yellow cursed inwardly, feeling ashamed and foolish for her prior stupidity.
