Chapter 146 Threat

"I'll think about it again."

Lin Fan gave a perfunctory reply and continued reading "Understanding the Past and Present".

"What are you still considering! Why are you so stubborn?"

Ren Siyao snatched the book from Lin Fan's hand: "Joining a sect is much better than going it alone. So many people want the protection of a sect but can't find a way!"

"Oh." Lin Fan said indifferently, snatched the book back quickly, turned to the side, and turned his back to Ren Siyao.

"You stubborn fool! Have you gone mad from being a live-in son-in-law?" Ren Siyao snorted.

Then, Ren Siyao's lips curled into a mischievous smile: "Lin Fan, I won't let you join the Huayun Sect anymore. I have a question for you."

"Speak," Lin Fan replied.

Ren Siyao pouted, feeling somewhat hurt by Lin Fan's coldness.

“Turn around, I’m going to ask you something,” Ren Siyao said.

"Can't you just ask directly?"

Lin Fan said this, but he still turned around helplessly, thinking that a little girl who hadn't even reached the Transcendent Realm wouldn't pose any threat.

The next second, Lin Fan realized that something was very wrong.

Ren Siyao held up her phone and snuggled into Lin Fan's arms, quickly pressing the shutter button.

A series of clicks followed, and then more than a dozen shots were taken in quick succession.

After the photo was taken, Ren Siyao quickly moved away, her face flushed.

"What's wrong with you?!" Lin Fan said speechlessly.

Ren Siyao straightened her back: "Join the Huayun Sect, or I'll send your photo to your wife!"

How did you get Ruowei's number?

Lin Fan hesitated for a few seconds, then shouted, "If you dare to do anything to hurt her, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

His eyes were wide open in anger, exuding a powerful aura of intimidation.

Ren Siyao was startled, not expecting Lin Fan to react this way.

My feelings were complicated at that moment.

"I was just kidding, I'll delete it right now." Ren Siyao looked aggrieved and was about to cry.

Lin Fan couldn't bear to see others shed tears, so his anger vanished and his tone softened:

"Why do you insist on me joining some sect? I really have no interest in it."

Lin Fan wasn't uninterested in joining a sect; rather, he disliked the sects of this world.

It's like a graduate student going back to elementary school and having to recognize an elementary school student as their older brother—it's like playing house.

"Fine, I won't add it then. Why are you being so fierce? Don't you know how to be gentle with a woman? I'm not even 20 years old yet!"

Ren Siyao wiped away her tears and sobbed, "Ordinary people can't even get in if they want to."

Lin Fan looked at Ren Siyao crying and felt extremely frustrated: "Don't cry, it's like I did something to offend you."

"You're being mean to me!" Ren Siyao cried even harder when she saw Lin Fan's attitude.

What started as gentle sobs has now turned into a full-blown sob.

Seeing that it was about to escalate into a full-blown wail, Lin Fan quickly shouted:

"Okay, okay! Stop crying, I'll join, alright!"

Ren Siyao instantly stopped crying and grinned, "Really?"

Lin Fan secretly clicked his tongue in amazement. This little girl's acting skills were truly amazing; it was a real pity she wasn't an actress.

“Alright, I’ll report this to the Huayun Sect tonight, and we’ll hold an induction ceremony for you in a few days,” Ren Siyao said seriously.

"Hmm." Lin Fan simply responded with a flat tone and continued reading his book.

Ren Siyao was displeased by Lin Fan's cold attitude: "You should be happy that you've joined the Huayun Sect, what kind of attitude is this!"

"What's there to be happy about?" Lin Fan said indifferently.

"Shancheng City has one dragon, two unicorns, and four fierce tigers. These four fierce tigers refer to the four major sects, and our Huayun Sect is one of the four fierce tigers!" Ren Siyao said proudly, "Shouldn't you be happy?"

"There's such a saying?" Lin Fan shrugged. "Then what is meant by 'one dragon with two unicorns'?"

"Tch, you don't even know that?" Ren Siyao suddenly had a bright idea: "Beg me, and I'll tell you."

"Then I don't want to know."

"You!" Ren Siyao puffed out her cheeks, then changed the subject: "I'm in a good mood today, so it's not a bad thing to tell you."

"The two Lin refer to the two major government agencies, the police department and the medical department."

"However, because they were government officials, they rarely showed their faces in public."

Lin Fan nodded. He didn't really want to deal with government officials; there were too many rules.

"Where's Yi Long?" Lin Fan asked.

Ren Siyao looked at her with disdain: "Aren't you from Shancheng City?"

Lin Fan glanced at Ren Siyao: "How can it not be? I was born and raised in Shancheng City and have never left Shancheng City."

Lin Fan frowned slightly, thinking: Of course, this refers to the situation in the present world, not going to another world.

"It's really pitiful, he's never even left the mountain city." Ren Siyao's eyes were full of pity.

Then, a hint of disappointment appeared in her eyes: "Yilong refers to the Shancheng Group."

"Shancheng Group is so powerful. I thought it was just a company," Lin Fan said with a smile, not noticing Ren Siyao's gaze.

"Shh-"

Ren Siyao put her index finger to her lips: "Watch your words, or you'll lose your life if you talk nonsense about the Shancheng Group!"

"What?" Lin Fan asked, intrigued. "No matter how powerful the Mountain City Group is, could they possibly harm an ordinary person like me?"

"It's hard to say!"

Ren Siyao looked around to make sure no one was watching, then leaned close to Lin Fan and whispered, "The president of Shancheng Group."

"Hmm—" Lin Fan responded.

"They were acting crazy, pulling off a random lottery and just like that, they gave away the Lingjueding Villa."

Ren Siyao blushed as she finished speaking, realizing that Lin Fan was currently living in Villa No. 001: "That's not the point."

"It's alright, please continue," Lin Fan said with a smile.

Ren Siyao sighed: "They've been developing this piece of shabby land in the southern business district without revealing their identities, acting all mysterious!"

"What if he's just being modest?" Lin Fan smiled helplessly. "Do you still have a problem with him?"

“I have a lot of issues with him!” Ren Siyao said.

Lin Fan smiled, taking it as the girl joking.

"One dragon, two unicorns, four fierce tigers." Lin Fan pondered, "How can the Mountain City Group be ranked ahead of the government?"

“Otherwise what? The economic lifeline of Shancheng City is tied to the Shancheng Group, and the Shancheng Group has close ties with the government; they are interdependent.” Ren Siyao further explained:

"Moreover, many experts from the four major sects work for the Mountain City Group."

"You also work at Shancheng Group?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

Ren Siyao shook her head: "I'm not here, I'm too lazy to go."

"Then it seems you're a master among masters," Lin Fan joked.

"Otherwise what?" Ren Siyao said proudly, "I am a master of the sixth level of body refinement."

Lin Fan smiled, glanced at the time and it was already 5:30: "I have to go, you can play by yourself, expert."

“Alright, I’ll call you in a few days during the sect ceremony,” Ren Siyao said.

"Okay." Lin Fan took the book to the front desk, bought it, and planned to continue reading it at home.

Ren Siyao watched Lin Fan's departing figure, a sense of loneliness rising in her heart. Not long after, she also left the coffee shop.

After getting into the car, Lin Fan headed straight for Su Ruowei's company, and called Gao Xuan on the way.
