On the way back.
Gou’zi didn’t understand why the Young Master wanted to visit Liang Yongqi.
Didn’t the two of them have conflicts with each other?
He couldn’t understand. Maybe this was how aristocratic families communicated and interacted with one another.
“Brother Lin, please wait.”
During this moment, not far away, Liang Yichu walked over towards them. A servant followed behind him. It was the Liang Family’s top detective, Zu Xiang. He was from a large outer city and came over to You City.
Lin Fan smiled, “So it is Brother Liang, what matter do you need?”
Liang Yongqi’s elder brother was rather good. His personality was decent and his mentality was scarily all right.
“Nothing much, I saw you from a distance away, so I came over to chat. Are you free? If you are, then why don’t we head over to Drunk Fragrance Pavillion to drink.” Liang Yichu smiled and then added, “It will be my treat.”
“Sure.” Lin Fan replied. He had nothing to do every day anyway, and since someone was treating him and it was free, it felt really good.
Drunk Fragrance Pavillion.
The manager quickly arranged seats for the both of them, he found things weird, it was really really weird.
Why did the Liang Family’s Eldest Young Master have such a good relationship with the Lin Family’s Young Master?
Didn’t the third Young Master have a really bad relationship with Young Master Lin? Not only did the elder brother not help his younger brother take revenge, but he was also even drinking together with the enemy. He didn’t understand, he really didn’t understand
Liang Yichu and Lin Fan continued to praise each other and had a good time.
At the table.
Zu Xiang would constantly stare at Lin Fan, looking up and down from his legs to his body like he was searching for something.
He was extremely good at noticing traces.
Especially in terms of psychology, he had a rather high attainment in it.
When Liang Family’s granary was robbed, he didn’t suspect Lin Fan.
However after what happened,
He noticed that this matter seemed to be connected with that of Young Master Lin.
Other people might not believe what Young Master Liang said back then, but he heard it clearly. He analyzed the information on hand and considered that there was such a possibility.
Or perhaps maybe Young Master Liang lied and what Young Master Lin said was true.
“This brother here, from the beginning until even now you have been observing me. Is there something wrong? It’s okay, you can say it directly. I’m open and willing to accept criticism.” Lin Fan asked.
The person beside Liang Yichu had a weird expression on his face that scared him.
If not for him looking quite average, he would have suspected whether or not he was gay.
Zu Xiang laughed, “Young Master is misunderstanding something. I just felt that you look different from others, I’m just looking more than usual.”
“Hey!” Lin Fan was interested, “So you know how to look at fortune, not bad! Not bad! When I was young, a master told me that I have a broad face. My nose bridge is really high and round but doesn’t show my nostrils. It’s really straight and is called the dragon’s nose.”
“He said that people with such a nose are all smart, intellectual, talented and will be really rich.”
“That master was really accurate, it’s exactly the same as my current situation.”
Zu Xiang’s smiled froze. What was he saying? he’s just randomly saying things to turn the tide of the conversation over, he could actually link it to all this.
It truly wasn’t a mistake that Young Master Liang lost.
Liang Yichu smiled, “Brother Lin, what do you think about mine?”
“En…” Lin Fan thought about it, “It’s not bad, although yours isn’t a dragon’s nose, however though, you also have the nose of a king. People with such a nose will enjoy fame and fortune. You will soon face a good encounter. When it comes you must grab it.”
“Hahaha!” Liang Yichu laughed. Although he knew that Brother Lin was just bragging and praising him, when two people would do these kinds of stuff to one another, they would naturally get closer.
He would just agree with whatever was said.
He cheered for whatever Brother Lin did. Be it the grain taxes or even giving out grain. Those weren’t things normal people could do. Without charm and foresight, one wouldn’t dare or be able to do those.
Zu Xiang shook his head and didn’t say anything. The young masters of You City were much friendlier than those of the big families in other cities.
He came here from the large cities not because he wasn’t talented enough, but because those places were just too dangerous.
The competition was too intense.
Blood flowed like a river. Not to mention the battle between families.
When one slept at night, one might be sleeping well and then blade lights would suddenly flash out, causing one to nearly lose his life.
What Zu Xiang couldn’t take was that when he was under pressure and went somewhere to relax, he was having fun with women and was about to reach the best part. The woman suddenly raised her hand and a cold glow struck towards him.
He was terrified of what happened.
Ever since then on he lost his will to fight
He wanted to leave that dangerously competitive area and find a safe place to pass his life.
During this moment, his expression was dark and sunken.
When he came back to his senses, he noticed that Young Master Lin was staring at him with a weird gaze.
“You’re someone with a story.” Lin Fan said leisurely as he drank a cup of wine
That expression he had was the same as the one he had before. Only men with stories could understand one another.
Zu Xiang laughed awkwardly, a story? Of course he had one, however, some things can’t be understood unless one went through it.
Normal people wouldn’t be able to live such a life.
When aristocratic families fought, there was not only blood spilled, but also lives taken.
The battle between the three families in You City was just a small quarrel, it added a little fun to life.
For example, the granary.
If it happened there.
The guards guarding the granary would not only die, but their entire families would also be buried with them.
If compared to here, how would it end up like that?
They would just break their legs and still be able to live.
Zu Xiang laughed as a grey light suddenly flashed in the sky. His expression changed.
“Young Master, it’s best if you don’t go out as of late.”
His words totally confused Lin Fan.
“Why?” Lin Fan asked
He was confused. He didn’t understand what Zu Xiang meant.
At this moment, Zu Xiang found it weird as well. How could the Lin Manor’s Young Master not know about such things?
When he was about to say something, the streets started to bustle with noise.
The sound of horse hooves spread over.
Lin Fan looked out and saw that his cousin was back. He laid on the railing and waved, “Cousin!”
Zhou Zhongmao wiped out the pirates and at the same time took all their fortunes. He had four full boxes with large amounts of precious items. He also brought things back to give especially for his cousin.
After all the work was done, he rushed back day and night to return to You City as fast as possible.
“Cousin!”
When Zhou Zhongmao saw his cousin above, he raised his hand for them to stop. He then jumped off and ordered his men to send the things back to the Lin Manor, after all these were done, he entered the Drunk Fragrance Pavillion.
“Cousin! You left for so long, I really missed you. How was it? You didn’t face any danger right?” Lin Fan asked.
Zhou Zhongmao smiled, “No. Nothing happened. The journey was a little far. If not for that, I would have been back long ago.”
Zu Xiang smelled the thick stench of blood on him.
He knew…
The person in front of him killed a lot of people. The stench gathered and didn’t dissipate. Normal people wouldn’t be able to smell it, however, he knew that this person was someone fierce.
