Chapter 4007: How have you been?

Translator: 549690339

Although Xu lingchong had only himself to blame for todays incident, if Xu lingchong went back and fabricated another version, making himself the victim, the matter would be unclear. It was not impossible that Xu Yuan had come to find Guan Tianhua for the sake of his grandson, who he had high hopes for.

However, Shangguan LAN er rolled her eyes and said with certainty,Little Junior Brother, you dont understand. An annoying person like Xu lingchong only thinks about how to take over the position all day long. Everything else is just fleeting clouds. Therefore, he definitely doesnt dare to tell his family about todays incident. On the contrary, he has to hide it everywhere, for fear that his family will know that he has already become a eunuch, hehe!

Thats true. If his grandfather Xu Yuanzheng were to find out about this, hed probably be reduced to a marginal figure. Lin Yi nodded in agreement.

This was actually not difficult to understand. No family would let a eunuch take over the power. This was an unquestionable matter.

Moreover, even if Xu lingchong were to tell them everything, it would not benefit him in any way. On the contrary, it would be a huge risk, because Shangguan Tianhua would never turn a blind eye to his only granddaughters matters.

Thats why I dont need to tell grandfather about this. Otherwise, little Bai and I will be in big trouble. I dont know how long well be in confinement. Shangguan LAN er stuck out her tongue and said.

Lin Yi couldnt help but laugh-no wonder this girl was so opinionated. This was the root of it all-this little Senior sisters intelligence was always selective.

Xu lingchong disappeared, and Shangguan LAN er looked at the pool of blood in the corner of the wall. She was a little disgusted, and pulled Lin Yi downstairs after a while.

When the two of them went downstairs, the banquet was just at its climax. Many big shots were toasting each other and gathering in twos and threes. They were trying to build relations.h.i.+ps with each other and were talking loudly. Their faces were glowing.

Lin Yi looked around and saw that Nan Tianba and a few others were surrounding Xu Yuanzheng, flattering him. Gongyang Jie, the youngest and most prominent figure in the hall, was nowhere to be seen. He didnt know why Gongyang Jie had left early for such an important occasion.

Lin Yi was a little suspicious, but remembering Gongyang Jies pride, it wasnt strange for him to leave the table on his own.

Does Hall Master Gongyang always leave so early for banquets of such scale? Lin Yi turned to Shangguan LAN er.

Shangguan LAN er thought for a while, then shook her head and said,No, hes the master of the law enforcement Hall. Its his duty to maintain order. He usually stays until the end. Unless theres a special situation, hell leave early. Whats wrong?

Special circ.u.mstances Its nothing much, I was just asking. Lin Yi said with a smile.

Just as Lin Yi was suspicious, an old acquaintance walked up to him. It was Hong Zhong, the full power representative of the Hong Chamber of Commerces North Island.

Young hero Lin, how have you been? Hong Zhongs face carried a gentle smile, but his words had a deeper meaning.

Manager Hong, how have you been? thank you for helping me out today. Lin Yi smiled faintly.

It was just a simple conversation, but both sides already knew who Lin Yi was. Lin Yi had told Hong Zhong his ident.i.ty. After all, if he wasnt Lin er, he wouldnt even have seen Hong Zhong before.

He was 99% sure that Lin Yi was Lin er when Hong Zhong came out to save him, but it was different if Lin Yi admitted to it.

If Lin Yi didnt admit it, then hed lose the favor hed done for him, and hed have to lower his evaluation of Lin Yis character and value.

Luckily, Lin Yi wasnt an ungrateful person. He didnt give him the chance to do so.

Hong Zhongs eyes lit up as he looked at Nan Tianba and the others in the distance, sighing,Lin shaoxia is really bold. Hes surrounded by strong enemies, and he still dares to appear in this situation. I have to say, Im impressed.

What will come will come. Its only a matter of time. We can only deal with it when it comes. Lin Yi said indifferently.

To be honest, he didnt expect so many things to happen today. If he had known earlier, he wouldve thought about it carefully and decided to take the risk.

But what shouldve happened and what shouldnt have happened had already happened, and there was no point in regretting it now. Lin Yis mentality was now a cla.s.sic example of theres nothing to worry about when youre already full of lice,or rather, a dead pig wasnt afraid of boiling water.

In the end, there was no such thing as absolute safety in the world of pract.i.tioning-threats were always there, big or small. Lin Yi knew that it was better to deal with them than to avoid them.

Young hero Lin is very bold. But if you need anything, you can tell me. Although Im old, I can still be useful against some small fry. Hong Zhong said with a smile.

Then I thank manager Hong for his good intentions. Lin Yi said faintly. He didnt need any outside help yet, at least not before his ident.i.ty was discovered.

Hong Zhong didnt stay any longer after talking to Lin Yi. After all, he represented the Hong Chamber of Commerce and was one of the few hot figures in the hall.

In a sensitive situation like this, he couldnt interact too much with Lin Yi. If he acted too friendly, he wouldnt be helping Lin Yi, hed be harming him.

After this, the birthday party had become a gathering for the upper echelons, and it had nothing to do with a small figure like Lin Yi. After being dragged by Shangguan LAN er for a while, Lin Yi left early.

Lin Yi would rather go back to his cave and train than watch these big shots play a power game. At least that way, he would feel more at ease. Maybe one day, he would become one of the big shots here, but at least for now, he had no interest in these bullsh * t things.

Now, Xu lingchong had completely become an enemy that would not rest until one of them was dead. After being turned into a eunuch by a pair of scissors, it was hard to imagine what kind of revenge he would take in the future. Previously, he would follow the rules of the game of the three pavilions, but it was hard to say what would happen in the future. He might even do things like sneak attacks and a.s.sa.s.sinations.

Other than that, Nan Tianbas threat level had increased as well. Lin Yi could clearly feel that their suspicions towards him had returned.

Hence, Lin Yis current situation could be said to be unprecedentedly dangerous. Only by constantly increasing his strength could he be able to deal with these kinds of crises that could erupt at any time in the future. For this, he had to Train no matter what.
