Chapter 24: Telling lies to the extreme
What the hell?
Is this world abnormal, or did they hear it wrong?
Everyone looked at each other in disbelief.
With strong doubts, Lin Hanyi and others hurried to the reception room.
Sure enough.
At this moment, the reception room was full of people, all of whom were the heads of well-known families in Fengtian City.
In addition to these people, at the door of the reception room, large and small bags, all kinds of gold, silver and jewelry piled up into a small mountain.
When they saw Lin Hanyi and his family members coming out, those who were waiting hurriedly greeted them.
"Hey, Brother Lin, long time no see."
The head of the Fang family was the first to walk out, as if he had known each other for decades. He held Lin Hanyi's hands tightly and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, do you still remember the scene of us digging loaches together outside Fengtian City eighty years ago? Now thinking back, it is really unforgettable."
"Of course, I came here today not only to reminisce with you, but also because I heard recently that there is a useless thief in my Fang family who covets Brother Lin's shop, which caused some unpleasantness between our two families."
"Alas, it's all my fault that I was in seclusion before. I only found out about this matter today and made such a big mistake!"
"But don't worry, I will teach that thief of our Fang family a lesson after I come out, and completely remove his position. I will also bring gifts to Brother Lin's house to apologize as soon as possible."
"So I hope Brother Lin, don't treat our Fang family with the same attitude!"
"Come on, help me present the gifts."
As he said, the Fang family presented several storage rings, which contained various priceless materials.
However.
Before the head of the Fang family finished, the head of the Gu family came up again.
"Brother Han, I'm sorry for you!"
The head of the Gu family wailed, shook his head and sighed, saying: "My family told me that an unmined mine was found outside the city, so I took people to mine it, but who knew, who knew that this mine belonged to someone, your family, Brother Han."
"When I learned the news, I felt so guilty. It was obviously owned by someone, but I mined it privately without finding out the situation, which led to such a big misunderstanding between my Lin and Gu families."
"I, I'm really not a human being, I'm sorry for your Lin family."
As he said this, the head of the Gu family slapped himself twice with a look of regret, and sighed and said: "Brother Han, I came here today mainly to resolve the misunderstanding between our two families, so please don't be surprised."
"Of course, in order to make up for the mistakes made by my Gu family, I plan to compensate Brother Han with the two finest mines outside our Gu family city."
"Now all the people in my Gu family have withdrawn, and Brother Han can send someone to take over at any time!"
For a while.
In the Lin family's living room, the heads of various families began to show off their poor acting skills.
In order to please the Lin family, they did everything they could.
Some came to propose marriage.
Some wanted to become sworn brothers with Lin Hanyi.
Some wanted to treat the entire Lin family to a meal.
One head of the family really didn't know how to curry favor with them. He was half a year older than Lin Hanyi, but he knelt on the ground and asked Lin Hanyi to accept him as his godson.
The whole scene was ugly.
But it was very realistic.
From ancient times to the present, in different times and places, it has been like this.
It can be said to be the most realistic portrayal.
Lin Hanyi and his people stared at each other, and they were completely confused.
Looking at the people who were currying favor with them, it was like a dream.
The moment before, they were still shouting that they would beat up their Lin family, and the next moment they came to apologize. Their attitude was so low that it made people stare and smack their teeth.
"You..."
Lin Hanyi looked at everyone with a puzzled look on his face.
At this time, the servant outside came to report, "Master, Master, the young master is back."
"What, Feng'er is back?"
Hearing this, Lin Hanyi and others ignored the many masters and hurried to the door to greet them.
"Is it Lin Feng?"
"Let's go, let's catch up quickly."
Hearing this, the masters followed Lin Hanyi and others.
At the door, Lin Feng was carrying a lot of bags, followed by Zhong Qing and Zhong Qing's puppets.
"Feng'er."
"It's great that you're back safely."
When Lin Hanyi saw Lin Feng, tears filled his eyes and he hugged Lin Feng in his arms.
Since the last time the Murong family broke off the engagement, Lin Feng, who couldn't bear the blow, left Fengtian City and disappeared without a trace.
Many people rumored that Lin Feng had died outside a long time ago.
Now that he can see Lin Feng coming back safely, how can Lin Hanyi, as a father, not be happy?
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."
The other elders of the Lin family also surrounded Lin Feng, asking about his health and checking his body. Seeing that Lin Feng was safe and sound, they were also excited.
"Father, elders and uncles, this is the gift I brought to you."
Lin Feng carried large and small bags and distributed them to everyone one by one.
"You silly boy, it's good that you are fine, but you still think about us."
Lin Hanyi and the elders laughed from ear to ear. Although the gifts were not very expensive, they were still very happy to receive them.
"By the way, who are these two?"
Lin Hanyi only noticed Zhong Qing and the man in black behind Lin Feng at this time.
"By the way, father and elders, let me introduce you, this is my master Zhong Qing, and I don't know the name of the other uncle yet."
"What, Feng'er actually became a disciple?"
Hearing this, Lin Hanyi and others were so excited that finally someone accepted Lin Feng as a disciple regardless of his talent.
"We are here to meet Master Feng'er and the gentleman next to him."
Lin Hanyi and others saluted in unison.
"You are welcome."
Zhong Qing smiled gently, "The one behind me is my follower, you can just call him Hei Bai."
While speaking, Zhong Qing also sent a message to the black-clothed puppet behind him, "From now on, you will be called Hei Bai."
"Yes."
The black-clothed puppet lowered his head.
"It turns out to be Mr. Hei Bai, everyone stop standing here, come in, come in."
At this moment, all the family heads retreated to the sides, looking at Zhong Qing and Hei Bai with awe, and talking with their heads down.
"The man in black is the one who revealed the aura of the Moon Profound Realm in the tavern."
"And judging from his posture and what he said just now, he is indeed the follower of the man in white, and the man in white is Lin Feng's master."
"Yes, it seems that the rumors are true. The Lin family is lucky."
"Fortunately, we are more witty and express our opinions quickly."
At this time, Lin Hanyi also remembered that there were still a lot of family heads standing outside.
So Lin Hanyi first invited Zhong Qing to the most senior seat, and then said: "Master Zhong, please sit for a while. There are still some trivial matters here that need to be dealt with for a while. I will come in a while."
"Elders, please entertain Master Zhong first."
After that, Lin Hanyi walked towards these family heads again.
But after hearing Lin Hanyi's words, the family heads hurriedly waved their hands and shouted: "Master Lin, no, no, don't worry about us, you can just entertain the immortal, we can just squat here."
"Yes, yes, we can just squat here, don't worry about us."
