Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Dalang, drink your medicine

In the hall of the Martial Alliance.

Lin Fan was playing chess alone against Li Yizhen and Luo Jiuying.

After a tangled fight, Li Yizhen lost once again.

"You really are terrible at chess!"

Luo Jiuying immediately started mocking.

"You’re no better, weren’t you also utterly defeated by the boss? I lasted much longer than you."

Li Yizhen disdainfully rolled his eyes.

The two took turns, but still couldn’t overcome Lin Fan.

It seemed, finding redemption in the chess game was essentially impossible now.

"Come on, boss, let him see what I’m capable of."

Luo Jiuying impatiently pushed Li Yizhen aside.

But just then, Lin Fan’s phone rang.

"Hello, who is it?"

Seeing the unfamiliar phone number, Lin Fan curiously asked.

"Boss... it’s me... Wu Yingbo."

Wu Yingbo’s voice came through the phone.

The sneakiness in his tone was clear, and he sounded very nervous.

"Oh, what’s up?"

Only then did Lin Fan remember his undercover agent in Golden Eagle Security.

Unexpectedly, there was news so soon.

"People from the Qiao family in the provincial city have arrived, it’s Qiao Chuhai, Qiao Chushan’s elder brother. He’s already headed to the hospital with people. He was furious just a moment ago and said he wants to settle accounts with you tonight, boss. Be careful. I heard Qiao Chuhai was a former black-market boxing expert, very strong, and he brought about thirty to fifty people, all of them looking menacing."

Wu Yingbo hurriedly relayed the information he had gathered to Lin Fan.

"You don’t look easy to mess with either."

Lin Fan smiled faintly.

What black-market boxing expert? They were all nobodies in his eyes.

The reason he had left Qiao Chushan unharmed was simply to prevent him from bothering others.

"Boss, don’t joke with me, Qiao Chuhai really looks fierce. I didn’t even dare to look him in the eye. Just be careful, he has given a firm order to find your whereabouts tonight."

Wu Yingbo said with a somber face.

Surviving till today, he already considered himself lucky.

"Don’t worry, tonight I’ll give you a chance to distinguish yourself. I’ll send you the location later."

Lin Fan smiled faintly.

Since the other party was seeking trouble, he could certainly oblige them.

"No way, I dare not."

Wu Yingbo quickly refused.

"Remember, what I say is an order. If you don’t want to die, just do it."

Lin Fan’s tone became icy.

"Yes, yes, got it boss, I will do exactly as you command!"

Wu Yingbo of course had no idea what Lin Fan was planning.

He could only hang up the phone reluctantly, not daring to ask further.

"Boss, someone is looking for trouble with you? That means they’re disrespecting me. I’ll have Shao Yong take people and wipe them out right now."

Luo Jiuying, who had faintly heard Lin Fan’s conversation, immediately stood up.

Let alone Lin Fan’s status.

Just the mere life-saving grace he had received numerous times was already beyond repayment.

In all of Jiangning, there weren’t many people Luo Jiuying couldn’t handle.

"It’s just a small matter, no need for the Martial Alliance. I can handle it myself."

Lin Fan said with a smiling face.

The Qiao family’s issue, he didn’t take to heart at all.

It was merely like going out for a leisure stroll.

"Boss, don’t be a stranger with me. My life was saved by you. Any trouble for the boss is my trouble."

Luo Jiuying patted his chest as he spoke.

That kind of boldness was indeed moving.

"Mr. Luo..."

Before Lin Fan could speak, the tinkling voice of a bell came from outside the door.

Following that, Li Qiqi ran in like a butterfly.

Upon seeing Luo Jiuying, she didn’t forget to blush and greet him.

"Qi Qi, how come you have time to visit my martial arts school?"

Watching the bubbly Li Qiqi, Luo Jiuying said with a smile.

She used to really dislike the sweaty smell in the martial arts school.

And those peculiar looks from the disciples.

"I’m here to fetch Lin Fan for dinner."

As she said this, Li Qiqi blushed slightly.

In her heart, she quite felt like a little wife calling her husband home for dinner.

"Dinner again?"

Lin Fan stared with wide eyes in shock.

The meal at noon nearly salted him to death.

Now seeing Li Qiqi calling for dinner.

It gave him a déjà vu of Pan Jinliang feeding Da Lang medicine.

"Yeah, I made a mistake this afternoon, but in the afternoon I went to the market, even asked those market aunties for cooking secrets, and busied myself all afternoon. This time it’s definitely a feast for the senses, already laid out at home, just waiting for you to come back."

Qi Qi shyly lowered her head.

She didn’t see the look of horror in Lin Fan’s eyes.

"Well... I have an urgent matter tonight... so I better not go eat..."

"Don’t say that, I worked hard all afternoon, made a lot of dishes, whatever it is can wait until after we eat."

Hearing Lin Fan would not go, Li Qiqi immediately grabbed his arm with disappointment.

This afternoon’s hard work must not be in vain.

"Right, did you not just say that my trouble is your trouble too? Boss, it’s time for you to step in."

Lin Fan grabbed Luo Jiuying’s arm with one motion.

If he had to eat another meal, he’d drop dead on the spot.

"Boss, don’t worry, I’ll eat this meal for you."

Although he had heard that Li Qiqi’s cooking was tough to swallow.

But since Lin Fan had asked, Luo Jiuying naturally couldn’t delay.

He quickly stepped in to separate the two, "Qi Qi, you can’t ignore the elderly and the young now that you have love. I’ve had a friendship with your grandfather for so many years. It wouldn’t be too much to call me your god-grandfather, and you’ve never cooked for me."

"Then... Grandpa Luo, why don’t we all go together!"

Hearing this, Li Qiqi said awkwardly, pouting her lips.

"That’s more like it. Lin truly has urgent matters to attend to tonight, so I’ll take his place and see how good Qi Qi’s cooking is."

Luo Jiuying strategically positioned himself in front of Lin Fan.

"Luo, I knew you were reliable, always ready to step up. I’ll teach you a few killer moves sometime soon, guaranteed to leave Li Yizhen with nothing left. I’ll take my leave first."

Lin Fan clapped Luo Jiuying’s shoulder gratefully.

He then dashed out like the wind.

"Lin Fan, don’t go... just try a bite before you leave!"

By the time Li Qiqi ran out the door,

Lin Fan’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

Frustrated, she could only pout and stamp her feet.

"Qi Qi, I heard you prepared a whole table of dishes, you’ve got to take me along tonight."

Shao Yong approached with a smile.

His father stepping in, he naturally had to accompany him.

After all, the distance between Medicine King House and Martial Alliance wasn’t far.

A few steps and they would arrive.

"Alright then."

Helplessly, Li Qiqi could only agree.

Thus, the group of four headed straight to Medicine King House.

"Hey, Li, don’t look like someone died. I mean, your granddaughter made you some tasty food, just secretly be happy about it. If I could get a taste of my grandson’s cooking, I’d wake up laughing from my dreams."

Luo Jiuying patted Li Yizhen’s shoulder.

Along the way, he seemed absent-minded.

"If you had experienced her cooking, I hope you could still manage to laugh."

Li Yizhen rolled his eyes and sighed helplessly.

"What’s that smell?"

As the four walked back into the dining area of Medicine King House, they could smell a strange odor from afar.

When Luo Jiuying saw the black-green food on the table,

he was frozen in place.

"Li, is your granddaughter trying to poison us?"
