Chapter 544: Chapter 584, Expert Calculations (First Update)

Fang Yi snuffed out his cigarette butt. There were drinks on the dining table, and he poured himself a cup, taking two sips as if to soothe his throat.

Then Fang Yi stood up and paced back and forth, his demeanor not hurried in the least but exuding an extremely steady aura instead. Lin Xueru, watching the calm man before her, felt a multitude of wariness rise in her heart.

"I don’t want to get anything from you. I just want to advise you, don’t oppose me," Fang Yi suddenly looked at her.

"Don’t oppose you?" Lin Xueru scoffed, "I, the proud daughter of the Lin Family, would be scared of you?"

"You’re not scared?"

"I..."

Scared?

Truth be told, deep down, Lin Xueru was a bit scared of Fang Yi. The things he had done to her in that hotel last time had already left some psychological scars, and coupled with their current clash, her wariness towards Fang Yi had grown. How could she not be scared?

But as the great daughter of the Lin Family, admitting fear would be too embarrassing, especially in front of Fang Yi. She absolutely could not show weakness.

"You’re scared," Fang Yi suddenly said.

Those quietly uttered words struck Lin Xueru’s heart like a hammer, leaving her at a loss.

Lin Xueru snorted coldly, "So what if I’m scared? What, you want to use that to threaten me? If you want to threaten me, go ahead! Do it with all your might!"

Instead, Fang Yi just laughed, then suddenly he walked up to Lin Xueru and lifted her chin with his hand.

Lin Xueru froze, her whole body tensing up as if wound up, and at that moment, she didn’t even think to resist because... Fang Yi’s presence was simply too overpowering, his aura too strong, and the initiative was all in his hands.

Fang Yi’s action had the flavor of a rich young scoundrel teasing a respectable woman. Looking at Lin Xueru, tense but without any resistance, Fang Yi smiled slightly and said, "Lin Xueru, what do you think about my proposal?"

"What if I insist on opposing you?" Lin Xueru said.

"In that case... I’m sorry to say, pitying the fair and cherishing the jade is not my style. You’ve taken the Heart Shattering Pill I created and I’ve also put several needles into your body. You haven’t forgotten all this, have you? How does it feel when it flares up?" Fang Yi said with a smile.

Not mentioning it would have been fine, but this reminder immediately brought back the excruciating pain Lin Xueru had endured. The indescribable agony in her heart and the severe pain from several parts of her body were unbearable.

Seeing the change in Lin Xueru’s expression, Fang Yi knew he had achieved his goal and said, "It seems you’ve already suffered enough, but let me tell you, that was just the beginning. It only gets more painful from here."

Lin Xueru sat stunned for a long while before she clenched her teeth and said, "You really are a pervert."

"That may be true, but if we’re talking about perverts, I think the Lin Family’s Third Master and his lot are even more perverse. What I do is merely child’s play." Fang Yi replied calmly, "Lin Xueru, your relationship with your Third Uncle isn’t very good, is it."

Lin Xueru looked up, a flash of surprise in her eyes.

"If you don’t speak, I’ll take that as an agreement," Fang Yi said.

"Even if I don’t get along with my Third Uncle, what of it?" Lin Xueru said.

Fang Yi withdrew his hand, no longer holding up Lin Xueru’s chin, then he turned around, his back faced Lin Xueru as he said, "I’ve heard that Lin Family’s Third Master is cunning and strategic, yet cold-blooded and heartless, and there’s also a woman who seems very jealous of you. I wonder if I’m right."

Facing away from Lin Xueru, Fang Yi didn’t know that after he had spoken, a solemn expression had already appeared in Lin Xueru’s eyes.

Lin Xueru remained silent for a long time before she nodded seriously, "Right, but by telling me all this, are you trying to get me to turn against my family?"

Fang Yi said, "That is the idea." He didn’t hide his intentions.

Lin Xueru scoffed, "You... you don’t think this is funny?"

"Not funny at all," Fang Yi shook his head, his face serious as he continued, "Lin Xueru, give me an honest answer, do you want to take control of the Lin Family?"

Lin Xueru’s expression faltered; clearly, Fang Yi’s question had caught her off guard.

"Why should I answer you?" Lin Xueru retorted.

"Well, from your expression, you seem to want to have the Lin Family in your hands. Besides, I think that Lin Chen, the young master, is completely unfit to be the Family Head of the Lin Family compared to you."

"Hmph! Don’t flatter me, I won’t fall for it."

"Take it or leave it, but I’ve said my piece. If you want to be the head of the Lin Family, you can find me anytime. If not, then continue to join forces with Lin Sanshao and watch to see who wins this battle between him and me."

Having said so much, Fang Yi felt that he had made his point; if Lin Xueru wouldn’t admit it, then it was pointless for him to say more. However, if Lin Xueru truly aspired to take over the Lin Family, then Fang Yi believed he had achieved his goal.

Fang Yi walked out of the private room and standing at the door, Yuan Kong glanced over coldly at Fang Yi.

"Don’t worry, I didn’t do anything to your young miss," Fang Yi thought to himself, it was just a pat on her behind, after all.

"Fang Yi, you are a Martial Arts prodigy, but as the young miss’s guardian, even if my martial arts cultivation is not as high as yours, I will intervene the moment the young miss comes to harm," Yuan Kong said solemnly.

I’m not just a Martial Arts prodigy, I’m even praised as a demon by your young miss!

Looking at Yuan Kong like this, an idea crossed Fang Yi’s mind, and he asked, "Let me ask you something, do you know the Blood Buddha?"

What Fang Yi didn’t expect was that upon hearing the words ’Blood Buddha’, Yuan Kong’s entire demeanor became incredibly agitated, his eyes bulging and veined.

"Do you know where the Blood Buddha is?" Yuan Kong almost frantically fixed his gaze on Fang Yi.

Fang Yi hurriedly shook his head, "I’ve only heard of the nickname, don’t mind me." After saying this, Fang Yi quickly left. Actually, Yuan Kong was a decent person, just a bit too rigid.

And judging by Yuan Kong’s reaction just now, it seemed like there was a deep and bitter grudge involving the Blood Buddha.

Fang Yi, however, wasn’t in the mood to involve himself in these matters; he had other things to do. Thus, he headed to another private room where he met Song Duan.

Song Duan was an elegant man who, upon seeing Fang Yi, showed no surprise but instead greeted him with a smile, "Fang Yi, you’ve arrived. The young miss is inside waiting for you." A sly glint flickered in his eyes.

This caught Fang Yi by surprise, "I... I’ve arrived, and you’re not surprised at all?"

Song Duan said, "The young miss has her ways and had already predicted your arrival, so there’s no need for me to be surprised."

Predicted? Yeah, right!

Despite his doubts, Fang Yi still pushed open the door and entered the private room, where he saw Song Hongye leisurely sipping on some wine and Rong Quan passed out drunk at one side.
