After some hesitation, Ma Qun ultimately decided to tell Lin Fan the truth.
Why? Because Lin Fan could handle it?
No!
Because Lin Fan was not only the Dragon King of the Dragon King Hall but also his direct superior.
After a short while.
Lin Fan went from initial disdain to complete confusion, and then to utter shock.
This was absolutely ridiculous!
He had been thinking about how to weaken the Xu Family.
But now, not only had they not been weakened, but they had also been supercharged and strengthened. How the hell was he supposed to deal with this?
He was ready to unleash his ultimate move!
A one-hit KO!
Or rather, a one-hit disaster!
What more was there to say?
"Damn it! This Xu Mo and the Xu Family have gone too far!"
Lin Fan couldn't help but curse.
What the hell!
He started with a pair of straw sandals.
Xu Mo started with a full set of divine gear.
How the hell was he supposed to compete? Was this a game of Snake?
Ma Qun kept his eyes, nose, and mouth in check, maintaining his composure like an old monk in deep meditation.
He paid no attention to the chaos outside.
There really wasn't much to say at this point.
After venting his frustration, Lin Fan picked up his phone again.
"Is what you said true?"
A hundred billion dollars invested in crude oil bonds.
Standing on the brink of a crude oil price crash.
Even a pig could take off.
^(*￣(oo)￣)^
Saying that might even be an insult to pigs.
A propeller could fly, and even without a propeller, they could still fly.
As long as no other major oil fields were discovered.
Those who bought the bonds.
Would all take off.
This move was too cunning.
Where did the Xu Family get such confidence?
To dare to invest all their money in bonds.
And they ended up making a fortune.
It was as if they could predict the future.
Lin Fan might even start to believe it.
After all, this was just too unbelievable.
Or perhaps the backend departments of big companies and corporations were incredibly powerful.
With so many talents.
Spending some resources to predict the stock market trends wasn't impossible.
"I went through hell to get this intel, and you're still doubting it? Fine, don't believe it then!"
Li Jiaxin's tone was hostile.
To Lin Fan, it felt like she was just looking for trouble.
"Hahaha—since Burning Angel herself said so, and I'm not an unreasonable person, you did a great job with this!"
Lin Fan laughed.
Better to believe it than not.
What if it was true?
This intel was indeed explosive.
If it weren't for Li Jiaxin's information.
He wouldn't have known how long the Xu Family planned to keep this under wraps.
Although there wasn't much he could do to counter the Xu Family now.
At least he could start preparing.
No matter what, Burning Angel was a valuable informant.
If she were gone.
It would be a significant loss.
If she really had any intentions of betrayal.
Lin Fan could always have the Angel of Slaughter take her out.
"I've been in Magic City for a while now, and I've been meaning to take you out for a meal. Are you free today?"
Lin Fan persisted.
One thing at a time.
He still needed to meet her face-to-face!
"Dragon King, I'm really busy!"
On the other end of the phone, Li Jiaxin's tone was now extremely annoyed.
This Dragon King.
Kept pushing her patience to the limit.
Did he really think her head was made of dough???
"What could you possibly be so busy with?"
Lin Fan was puzzled.
'Ah~~~~~~~~~~~'
Then came the sound of a woman's scream.
It was a seductive and alluring voice.
Those who knew, knew!
Lin Fan's face turned green.
I sent you to work as a mole.
And you're out there chasing skirts?
What the hell!!!!
He couldn't believe it!
As the Dragon King of the Dragon King Hall.
He didn't even live as freely as Li Jiaxin.
"Burning Angel, you're really crossing the line here."
Lin Fan said in a displeased tone.
Damn it, eating meat without inviting me?
Things had been going badly for him lately.
Lin Fan was already feeling unbalanced.
Especially with all the top-tier beauties he had his eyes on.
Always hanging around Xu Mo.
He didn't know why.
Ever since he returned to the country.
All he got was the scraps.
Who wouldn't be pissed off by that?
Although he didn't care too much.
But it was always the same, and it was starting to get old, wasn't it?
"Dragon King, this is my personal matter. I've already finished my work. It's all clearly written in the contract. You can check it yourself."
"If there's nothing else, don't call me and disturb me. I'm afraid Xu Mo might get the wrong idea-------------"
"------------He sometimes comes into the office to check on things. If he sees us talking, we'll be exposed."
"Alright, that's it for now."
Beep beep beep------------
The call ended.
Leaving Lin Fan standing there, dazed and confused.
Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
After the philosophical triple questions.
Lin Fan finally snapped back to reality.
Something about Burning Angel's words felt off.
There was something strange about it.
But he couldn't quite put his finger on what it was.
On the other side.
Li Jiaxin was fearless.
This was bound to come out eventually.
She was just buying time.
Like using a plunger.
To temporarily shut Lin Fan's foul mouth.
This way, she could buy herself more time to slack off at work.

Goodnight, folks.
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
his freshman year, Su Bai accidentally bound the "Indulgence Tycoon System." 【Sleeping in? Reward: +$1,000】 【Spent $288 at a street barbecue stall? Cashback: +$2,880】 【Dropped $14,396 on in-game skins? Special reward unlocked: A brand-new Porsche Panamera!】 Luxury cars, penthouses, corporate shares, financial empires… College life was all about living freely and doing whatever he pleased! … When the adorably naive academic genius faced family medical bills and financial struggles, Su Bai waved his hand dismissively: "Your future is on me." "Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success? Not just that—Su Bai also became the tsundere campus belle’s unattainable dream, the contrast senior’s daily necessity, and the beautiful counselor’s emotional anchor…
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
