There was only silence that met this voice, but then the president was the first one to react.
The president jumped out of her chair and shouted, "Grandfather, what kind of nonsense are you saying?"
The old man just gave a laugh as he said, "Xiao Fei Fei, you've always been too picky, you'll never get married at this rate. Not to mention the fact that you have your mother's temper...Ze, ze, grandfather is just trying to help you save a bit of effort."
Lin Fan just stared at this old man since this old man was someone he recognized.
It was the same old man he had just saved on the road, the one that had been surrounded by loan sharks.
He hadn't been able to feel any cultivation from this old man before, but now this old man actually had an unfathomable aura around him.
This was something that Lin Fan had only felt from Qing Ao before, though Qing Ao's aura had been a bit stronger than this old man's.
Could it be that this old man was also a True Soul Realm Expert?
But the most important thing was that this old man was the grandfather of the president.
For someone to be able to take the position of the president of this Seekers Guild branch in Harmony City, they must have some pretty strong backing. It was very likely that this old man was some high level member of the Hunters Organization.
The two of them continued to bicker back and forth until the old man just turned to Lin Fan and said, "Young friend, take a look at my granddaughter, she's quite a beauty, don't you think? Also from what I've heard, she's been looking into your background. If that doesn't mean she's interested in you, I don't know what else it could mean."
Then he came forward and nudged Lin Fan as he said, "You're not that bad yourself, you're handsome and have a good personality, you really remind me of myself when I was younger. I don't have to worry about Xiao Yi Fei if someone like you marries her. Instead, you might be able to keep her at home instead of letting her run around all day."
The president Qiao Yi Fei finally couldn't take it as she said, "Grandfather, he's not the one!"
The old man was surprised when he heard this as he stopped mid sentence to turn back and look at Qiao Yi Fei before saying, "What do you mean by he's not the one? Isn't he the one that you were looking up before? Who else…"
It was only then that the old man realized that there were other people in the room who had come along with Lin Fan.
The first person he looked at was Angela and his eyes trembled when he saw her.
The old man slowly turned back to look at Qiao Yi Fei and said, "Could it be that you are interested in…"
Qiao Yi Fei followed the gaze of the old man and while she was equally as surprised as the old man by Angela's appearance, her face also turned red and a bit of anger appeared as she glared at the old man.
She said in a low voice, "Grandfather, what kind of things are you thinking?"
The old man revealed an awkward smile before finally turning to the last person in the room and asking, "Then you mean…"
Qiao Yi Fei lowered her head in a shy manner at this before giving a slight nod.
The only person left in the room that wasn't mentioned was Momonga.
The old man looked over him for a few seconds before shaking his head and saying, "No, he is the only one that I will not accept. Your father and mother will say the exact same."
Qiao Yi Fei immediately looked up with an aggrieved look as she asked, "Why?"
The old man looked back at Momonga and said, "Look at him, it's clear what kind of person he is. Someone like him is clearly the calculating type that always plots against others, he won't be able to give you the happiness you deserve!"
Qiao Yi Fei didn't give up as she said, "You don't know my Diabolis at all, you can't say that about him!"
Everyone was surprised when they heard this.
The old man turned to look at Momonga before asking, "Your name is Diabolis?"
Momonga was just as confused as he shook his head and said, "No."
Once he said this, everyone turned back to look at Qiao Yi Fei who had covered her mouth and had a blush that covered her face as she looked down. It was clear that she had made a mistake just now.
But since she did, there was no going back for her.
So with a sigh, she tapped her watch and there was a holographic picture that appeared. Judging by the style of the picture, it was clearly an illustration from a novel.
However, the strange thing was that the man in the illustration looked exactly like Momonga, albeit there was the lack of horns in his hair and his eyes were a bit sharper. But the general look of him was the same and he had the same white hair, as well as wearing a white suit.
When that picture appeared, Qiao Yi Fei's eyes turned starry as she looked at the picture and looked back at Momonga, comparing the two. As she kept comparing the two, her eyes began to glow more and more as she saw more and more similarities between them.
Only after a while did she say, "My Diabolis might seem like a cold person, but he's actually a kind hearted person who cares deeply about his friends. So you can't just judge him by his appearance!"
The old man couldn't help revealing an angry look as he pointed at Qiao Yi Fei and said, "You, you, you! Your parents and I really have given you too much freedom!"
But Qiao Yi Fei acted like she didn't hear any of this as she continued, "Plus look at those eyes, that perfect skin, and that white hair. It just melts my heart!"
The old man took a deep breath before saying, "Enough! If I let you keep acting like this, I really will be angered to death! I'm taking you back home tonight and your parents and I will be teaching you a lesson!"
Only when she heard this did Qiao Yi Fei finally snap out of that state.
If anyone in this city were to see Qiao Yi Fei, one of the Five Flowers of Harmony City acting like this, their hearts definitely would have been crushed. Such a beauty was actually acting like an otaku and a fangirl, it really was off putting with how obsessed she was over this character…
Of course, there would also be those that would be into it, but it would be hard to say if Qiao Yi Fei would be interested in them.
The old man ignored Qiao Yi Fei's protest and turned to Lin Fan, "Young man, how about you come with us and have dinner at our place? I'm sure Xiao Yi Fei's parents would love to meet you."
When this was said, there were two pairs of cold eyes that glared right at Lin Fan.
One came from in front of him, coming from Qiao Yi Fei who looked at him like he was an enemy since technically he was. He was the one that her grandfather chose and was the one that stopped her from being with the one she wanted to be with.
The other set of eyes came from a certain girl behind Lin Fan, glaring at him.
Lin Fan really wanted to complain since it wasn't his fault, but before he was strong enough, there really was nothing he could do against her. And even if he could, his heart wouldn't really let him do it in the first place.
She was the one person that he couldn't say no to.
So Lin Fan said, "Senior, I don't think I can since I'm busy tonight. Perhaps another time?"
Of course Lin Fan wouldn't directly reject him since this was a good chance to build a relationship in this city where he had nothing. Not to mention that this person was probably a high ranking Hunter, which would make it even better for him.
The old man waved his hand when he heard this and he said, "There's no need for you to call me senior, just call me grandfather like Xiao Yi Fei does."
Lin Fan felt the two glares becoming even more sharp and he could only complain in his heart, but he couldn't actually say anything.
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "How could I do that, senior? That isn't appropriate."
The old man gave a laugh before saying, "How so? You'll be a part of the family sooner or later."
Lin Fan had a bitter smile as he acted ignorant and asked, "What do you mean by that senior?"
Finally, the old man stopped smiling and revealed a serious look as he said, "We know that you're planning on taking the Hunters Exam, that's why you're doing all these missions. But did you know that you've already caught the attention of the Hunters Organization?"
Lin Fan slightly knitted his brows as he asked, "Is that good or bad?"
The old man continued, "It would be bad if the results of your background check were poor, but you passed, so the Hunters Organization has decided to let you join."
With a wave of his hand, there was a token that suddenly flew out at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan was confused when he caught it, but the old man explained, "That is your qualification for the Hunters Exam, plus it's a special recommendation qualification. As long as you have that, you can skip the first round."
