Chapter 168 Going to Find a Wife
"What about Yanlan?" Yan Nan asked. "I remember they were married."
The marriage between the Yan family and the Yan family is a well-known fact within the industry.
Old Yan squinted: "Yan Lin is not suitable for Lan Lan."
Yan Nan remained silent.
Is Yanting really suitable?
What exactly did Yan Lin offer that made Elder Yan agree to Yan Lin's outrageous request, even at the cost of canceling the marriage alliance?
For a moment, Yan Nan's expression was unreadable.
Looking at the man before him, Elder Yan flicked his prayer beads and said in a faint, aged voice, "Recently, the circle has been buzzing about your affair with Yan Ting. I don't know if it's true or not, but no matter what, there's absolutely no possibility between you and Yan Ting. She's your nominal sister, and you shouldn't cause such a scandal."
Yan Nan clenched her fists and said in a low, hoarse voice, "I only see her as my sister."
"hope so."

Jingzhou.
"Master Bai!!"
"Master Bai!!!"
Bai Zhi, who was working, frowned when she saw the man who rushed in in a panic and said, "What's wrong? Shouting and yelling like that, you have no manners at all."
"Chen Meng has disappeared."
A simple sentence stirred up a huge uproar.
Bai Zhi immediately stood up: "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on him?"
"I did look," the man said, sounding somewhat aggrieved, "but I couldn't keep an eye on it."
Bai Zhi's forehead veins bulged: "A bunch of good-for-nothings who do absolutely nothing."
"Hurry up and go find it!"
"We've already sent people to look for them."
"Fine," Bai Zhi said through gritted teeth, "I'll go find it myself."
With that, he put on his coat and rushed out of the office.
at the same time.
Chen Xiao was sitting in a taxi fiddling with his phone.
The driver glanced at the man in the back every now and then, seemingly wanting to say something but hesitating. Finally, after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Sir, you haven't said where you want to go yet."
How can he drive if he has no destination?
To everyone's surprise, Chen Xiao said, "You keep driving, I'll talk to you in a bit."
"..."
The driver felt that this handsome man looked somewhat strange.
Did he fall for a scammer?
Such things are common in Jingzhou.
Seeing that the car hadn't started, Chen Xiao looked at the driver in the front seat with some confusion. Then, as if he had thought of something, he said, "Uncle, are you afraid I won't pay you?"
His tone was indifferent, but it sounded extremely harsh to the driver.
The driver's face contorted slightly: "Sir, I'm only thirty-three years old."
Chen Xiao frowned: "What else is a thirty-three-year-old if not an uncle?"
Driver: "..." Is this person mentally challenged?
I'll think about it some more if I'm not sure.
hiss~
They really do look like they escaped from a mental hospital.
He looks like a very talented person, but who knew he actually has some mental issues.
The driver felt he couldn't take this person and was about to kick them off.
To everyone's surprise, Chen Xiao pulled out more than a dozen hundred-yuan bills: "Is this enough?"
Driver: "...That's enough."
That's enough.
next second.
A hissing sound.
The yellow taxi sped along the road.
The driver said: "So what if he's a lunatic? I'd still take him even if he were the King of Hell."
Chen Xiao, however, was excitedly watching the trees and buildings rushing past the window.
Tingting! Wait for me.

Inside the luxury private room.
"So?" He Junzhi raised an eyebrow at Yan Lin and asked, "Did that old man agree to your request?"
Yan Lin smiled and said, "Your medicine is naturally effective. How could that old man not be tempted by something that can prolong life? Not to mention him, even I am very tempted by this stuff."
He Junzhi's parents were both researchers, and as their son, he naturally had a great talent in this field as well.
Unfortunately, when He Junzhi was five years old, his parents passed away unexpectedly, leaving He Junzhi as the only heir in the large He family.
The He family had high hopes for this only child since it was a child, but they never expected that the child would grow crooked as it grew.
He Junzhi was pleased with Yan Lin's approval: "I've been researching this potion for five whole years."
Yan Lin smiled and said, "It can be used to make a fortune."
Humans become more afraid of death as they get older, just like geese.
Especially those old people in high positions probably like this kind of thing very much.
Yan Lin thought for a moment and asked, "Does this thing have any side effects?"
He Junzhi took a sip of his cocktail and replied, "Of course."
How could something that violates the laws of nature not have any long-term consequences?
Yan Lin narrowed his eyes slightly: "What are the aftereffects?"
He Junzhi stared at him, his eyes playful: "Want to know?"
Yan Lin's expression was indifferent: "Don't forget that I've already poured billions of yuan into you. I think I have the right to know these things."
"..." After a two-second silence, He Junzhi said calmly, "The side effect is that once you stop using this kind of thing, it will accelerate the aging process."
Yan Lin's eyes suddenly darkened.
He thought of the injection he received in Yanting before his memories were awakened.
"What?" Seeing Yan Lin's gloomy expression, He Junzhi said casually, "You didn't secretly use the potion I gave you before, did you?"
As soon as the medicine was developed, He Junzhi had a box sent to Yan Lin.
His idea was to find a living organism to test the effect first.
He wouldn't be surprised if Yan Lin used people for experiments.
However, seeing Yan Lin's expression, He Junzhi sensed that the other party seemed to regret giving that person the potion.
As for who that person was, he had a vague guess in his mind.
Yan Lin's expression was unreadable. He asked, "Has this contract been terminated?"
He Junzhi tilted his head and looked at Yan Lin. Two seconds later, he suddenly chuckled softly: "Yan Lin, you know me best. I never research things like contract termination."
He is not a philanthropist.
He was just a pleasure-seeker.
Seeing that Yan Lin had stopped speaking, He Junzhi smiled maliciously and said, "You hit Yan Ting?"
Yan Lin remained silent.
But his expression said it all.
Upon seeing Yan Lin like this, He Junzhi, contrary to his usual gloomy demeanor, burst into unrestrained laughter.
He laughed with a joyful and arrogant tone.
Yan Lin said coldly, "If you don't want your mouth to be sewn shut, then shut your mouth."
To everyone's surprise, He Junzhi not only didn't shut up, but laughed even more unrestrainedly.
"What if I don't shut up?"
Others may fear Yan Lin, but He Junzhi is not afraid.
Not only was he unafraid, he also relentlessly provoked the other party.
Yan Lin smiled instead of getting angry: "Lord He knows."
As soon as he finished speaking those three words, he kicked the coffee table over.
The crackling sounds could be heard even on the first floor.
The bar manager heard the commotion and immediately came to check the situation.
Then you see He Junzhi and Yan Lin pointing guns at each other's foreheads.
The manager was nearly scared out of his wits when he saw this.
He walked over nervously and said, "You two, let's talk this out."
If he really fires a gun and someone dies, he can forget about running his bar business.
The two men ignored the manager's arrival. Just as the atmosphere was about to become tense, Yan Lin suddenly laughed, "You're right, I do regret it." He put away the gun he had been pointing at He Junzhi.
Seeing this, He Junzhi raised an eyebrow: "It seems you really like that woman?"
like?
Yan Lin remained noncommittal.
He felt that his feelings for Yanting were less about liking her and more about appetite.
The desire to devour Yan Ting was enough to make him unable to extricate himself from Yan Ting.
