"I'm not a blockhead!"

At this moment, Lin Bai suddenly spoke up calmly.

Gah!

Both Lin Fan and Lin Ya were stunned. It was the first time they heard Lin Bai refute this idea.

Moreover, Lin Fan and Lin Ya were talking about blockheads, and he suddenly interrupted. Doesn't this mean he's admitting he likes Junior Sister Lin Ya.

"Damn you, Lin Bai, why are you confessing your feelings to me at this moment, making it so hard for me to control myself, I feel like crying." Junior Sister Lin Ya's face showed a hint of blush, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she gazed at Lin Bai with infatuation.

"I wasn't confessing to you, I just wanted to say I'm not a blockhead." Lin Bai spoke calmly.

Lin Ya was taken aback, and the joy on her face immediately turned to anger. Clenching her pink fist, she said, "Damn you, Lin Bai, smelly Lin Bai, if you weren't confessing, why did you refute it? You got me all excited for nothing, now tell me, how do you plan to compensate me?"

Lin Bai opened his mouth, but didn't know how to explain, so he simply closed it and turned his head as if he hadn't seen anything, which made Lin Ya furious.

"Damn you, Lin Bai, smelly Lin Bai, I've liked you for so long, and you're toying with me, I'm going to fight you!" Lin Ya charged towards him with claws bared.

However, Lin Bai watched Lin Ya rushing over, remained unmoved, waved his hand, and gently flicked away Lin Ya's jade hand, speaking calmly, "You're not my opponent, don't make trouble for yourself."

After speaking, Lin Bai turned around and went downstairs directly!

Ah~

Junior Sister Lin Ya shouted angrily, kicking the door flying out, it seems this girl was really mad!

Lin Fan looked at these two quarrelsome lovers, feeling helpless, wondering why Lin Bai wouldn't hold onto such a perfect girl like Junior Sister Lin Ya, often teasing her. Lin Fan felt like giving Lin Bai a good beating for Lin Ya.

Damn, does this guy want to be a bachelor for life?

"Calm down, don't get angry, you know Black Loach's character, he's just like that." Lin Fan interjected to ease the situation.

"Hmph! I'm so mad, but you're still the best, Senior Brother Fan." Lin Ya pouted, speaking of Lin Fan but clinging to his neck, peering at Lin Bai's departing figure.

"Ahem! I say, Junior Sister Lin Ya, this handsome guy is still here, why aren't you looking at me and keep staring at that block of wood, are you trying to hit me?" Lin Fan feigned being aggrieved.

"Hehe! Senior Brother Fan is indeed a handsome guy, but I just like Lin Bai's cool demeanor." Lin Ya said with an infatuated look.

Lin Fan helplessly rolled his eyes, thinking, what kind of people are these? Not liking a handsome guy but liking a coal thief, have women's tastes changed?

Lin Fan cleared his throat and pretended to speak seriously, "Actually, if you look closely, I'm even cooler when I try."

Lin Ya rolled her eyes at Lin Fan, saying, "Tch! Senior Brother Fan, stop pretending, you and Lin Bai aren't on the same level at all. He's naturally talented, and you're just a half-finished product at best, besides, you already have Junior Sister Lin Qianxiao."

Hearing this, Lin Fan was almost in tears, thinking, you didn't have to hit me so hard!

"By the way? Junior Sister, where is she? There are no assignments outside today, she should be in her room." Lin Ya glanced curiously at the bedroom.

"Haha, she... might have something to do temporarily, let's go downstairs first." Lin Fan gave a bitter smile, then turned to go downstairs.

Lin Ya seemed to have guessed the situation, sighed helplessly, and followed Lin Fan downstairs.

The junior disciples who came to Yanjing for the assignment were all gathered in the living room on the first floor, and upon seeing Lin Fan, they all respectfully called out "Senior Brother."

Lin Fan waved his hand, signaling everyone to sit down, and asked, "Tell me your plan and progress for this trip to Yanjing."

As soon as business was mentioned, Lin Ya became solemn and said, "The main goal of our sect sending us here is to make our sect's pharmaceutical industry flourish in Yanjing. After all, Yanjing is an expensive city with a lot of people and wealthy individuals. With people getting sick, expenses naturally get high. If we can conquer the pharmaceutical industry in Yanjing, it would be infinitely beneficial to our sect."

"However, we have no foundation in Yanjing. It's easy to start a pharmaceutical company, but gaining recognition is hard. Besides, other pharmaceutical companies in Yanjing have big shots backing them. For us, as a new force, wanting to soar quickly is very challenging, and those local companies will definitely suppress us."

Lin Ya analyzed carefully.

Lin Fan nodded, asking, "Is there anything you need my help with?"

"Yes!"

Lin Ya nodded quickly, saying, "The Sect Leader said you have some very influential friends in Yanjing and hope you can ask them for help to support our industry. As long as we have someone powerful backing us, with our sect's pharmaceutical capabilities, we can dominate Yanjing's business within two years, absolutely."

"Just this small favor?" Lin Fan asked in surprise.

"Small favor? Senior Brother Fan, you don't know how formidable the figures behind those companies are. If we can't get real support, we wouldn't be able to rise." Lin Ya looked serious.

"Leave it to me to handle." Lin Fan thought for a moment and asked, "Any major happenings in the Martial World recently?"

"No major events, but other sects have been training many outstanding disciples, oh, and... the top disciple of Forget Sorrow Sect has been crazily pursuing Junior Sister Qianxiao these past years, not giving up..."

After speaking, Lin Ya looked up at Lin Fan's face, wanting to see his reaction to this news.

Lin Fan squinted his eyes, with a hint of a cold arc curling at the corner of his mouth, immediately recalling that man, renowned in the Martial World as a genius alongside himself.

Ever since beating him up five years ago, that guy was unconvinced and claimed he wanted to marry Lin Qianxiao to humiliate Lin Fan. But when Lin Fan had to leave, he didn't go to Forget Sorrow Sect for another beating. Unexpectedly, this guy still hasn't given up after five years!

"Anything going on within the sect?" Lin Fan continued to ask.

This time, Lin Ya was silent, not answering immediately, her expression becoming quite serious.

Lin Fan's expression turned grim, he said sternly, "Speak up!"

"Your master isn't doing well!" At this moment, Lin Bai suddenly spoke.

As soon as these words came out, Lin Fan's pupils constricted tightly, flickering with a menacing gleam!

Lin Fan is an orphan, with no family, it was the old man who raised him, imparting all his skills. He cared for him, yet was strict with him.

Although Lin Fan never spoke a good word about the old man, remembering how he forced him to train, punishing him if he didn't do well, made him uncomfortable.

Yet, to Lin Fan, that old man was not just his master, but also his father. All he had was given by him, a lifelong debt of gratitude!
