Lin Fan was just about to sneak away with the tea box. Such good tea leaves are rare, and he estimated he could auction them for a good price! 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

But as soon as Lin Fan’s hand touched the tea box, a dark shadow suddenly flashed by.

Lin Fan was taken aback and quickly tried to withdraw his hand.

Having advanced to the Huajin level, Lin Fan’s speed was incredibly fast, but when faced with the shadow, he could only pull his hand halfway before it was slapped hard on the back, reddening it!

"Damn! Old man, are you crazy? Why hit me so hard?" Lin Fan grumbled displeasedly.

"Taking someone’s belongings without notifying the owner—is that what your mentor taught you?" Ye Shouxin said coldly.

"Who says I wouldn’t tell you? I saw you sleeping soundly and didn’t want to disturb you, that’s all!" Lin Fan quickly fabricated a lie; he couldn’t exactly admit that he wanted to steal Ye Shouxin’s tea leaves, could he?

Lin Fan couldn’t afford to lose face here!

At this, Ye Shouxin slowly opened his eyes, which had been tightly shut. When Lin Fan met Ye Shouxin’s gaze, he felt as if his eyes were like black holes, glancing at them made him feel as if he would be sucked in, leaving Lin Fan amazed!

"This old man is even stronger than before!" Lin Fan exclaimed in surprise.

Ye Shouxin glanced at Lin Fan and slightly raised his eyebrows and said, "Huajin level? Young and talented, not bad!"

"Hehe! Of course, who else would I be?" Lin Fan bragged with a grin.

But upon hearing Lin Fan’s words, Ye Shouxin merely shook his head slightly, closed his eyes again, and softly said, "When I was twenty, I was already at the Huajin level."

With that, Lin Fan felt as if he had been dealt a ten thousand-point critical blow.

Geez, no need to insult a person so badly!

If Lin Fan could actually defeat him, he would love to give this old man a good beating!

"Old pervert!"

Lin Fan swore internally, feeling just one curse wasn’t enough. Taking advantage of Ye Shouxin’s inattentiveness, he snatched the tea box and stuffed it into his pocket before bolting!

Why run? Because he feared that Ye Shouxin might actually beat him up, and if he did, Lin Fan would have no choice but to take the beating, as he couldn’t defeat him anyway!

Beside them, Yang Feng watched the interplay between the old and young, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"Probably, at present, Lin Fan is the only one nationwide who dares to talk to Elder Ye like this!"

After muttering this to himself, Yang Feng followed closely behind Lin Fan into the room!

Upon entering, the room was warm, with a small stove burning fiercely, heating up the stove’s iron casing to red-hot. On the stove, a kettle was placed, and the water was boiling, making a "woo-la woo-la" sound!

Nearby, Dragon King was sitting on a bamboo recliner with closed eyes, covered with a thin blanket.

The Dragon King’s hair was messy, his complexion somewhat dark, and combined with his slouched posture, he looked a bit forlorn. On the street, no one would think that he was the globally renowned Huaxia War God!

Behind the Dragon King stood a graceful silhouette, undoubtedly Bai Weiwei!

At this moment, Bai Weiwei was massaging the Dragon King’s shoulders!

Seeing Lin Fan walk in, Bai Weiwei immediately looked up, her face just about to break into a smile. But suddenly remembering that Lin Fan had already gotten his marriage certificate, the smile vanished, and her expression turned plain.

Lin Fan nodded at Bai Weiwei as a greeting and tiptoed over to Dragon King’s opponent, gesturing to Bai Weiwei to make way.

Bai Weiwei understood and moved aside. Lin Fan walked over and began massaging Dragon King’s shoulders.

"Is that you, Lin Fan boy?"

At this moment, Dragon King’s robust voice immediately rang out.

"Haha! You really can’t hide anything from you, old man!" Lin Fan laughed.

"Weiwei doesn’t have such strength, and the only one who would dare enter my room without a word, massage my shoulders, and make Weiwei so obedient is likely just you, boy!" Dragon King laughed heartily.

Hearing this, Lin Fan could only awkwardly touch his nose; what does it mean to say "make Weiwei so obedient"? This sounded a bit odd.

Instinctively, Lin Fan glanced at Bai Weiwei, and upon catching Lin Fan’s gaze, Bai Weiwei immediately turned away, picking up the kettle to brew tea!

At this moment, Dragon King laughed and said, "Weiwei, I still have some pure brewed white liquor stashed away. Bring it out and warm it up; Lin Fan and I will have a drink."

"Godfather, the doctor said you shouldn’t drink alcohol!" Bai Weiwei quickly replied.

"What are you afraid of? Drinking a bit won’t kill me, will it? Just because the doctor said so doesn’t make it entirely right. Geez, these doctors today make mountains out of molehills. Do they really think I’m scared? Go get the liquor!" Dragon King bellowed, his mustache bristling.

"Godfather..."

Bai Weiwei still wanted to persuade him, but Lin Fan interrupted, saying, "Go get a bit; with Elder Long’s physique, a little alcohol won’t hurt. I’ll keep an eye on him to make sure he drinks less."

Bai Weiwei hesitated for a moment, then turned and left the room.

Dragon King cast Lin Fan a glance and said, "Ah! Truly, a grown woman can’t be kept much longer. As her godfather, my words don’t carry as much weight as your words, boy!"

"Old Long, stop teasing me. It’s because she’s reserved with me but doesn’t hold back with you, for your sake!" Lin Fan explained.

Dragon King nodded, "Of course, I know that; it’s just that my goddaughter is not that young anymore, and she still hasn’t found a boyfriend to marry, leaving me a bit worried. Nowadays online, there are two emerging words what’s it called—leftover woman, right? I certainly don’t want my goddaughter to become a leftover woman!"

While saying this, Dragon King instinctively looked at Lin Fan.

But on this issue, Lin Fan chose to avoid it directly!

Before long, Bai Weiwei returned with a liquor jug, and she took out a ceramic wine pot, filled it from the jug, and placed it on the stove.

In the north, winters are cold. Many people like to drink this kind of warm liquor to heat themselves up!

After that, Bai Weiwei brought over a tray of peanuts, bustling around, looking quite like a virtuous young wife!

"Sit!"

Dragon King pointed to the seat opposite, inviting Lin Fan and then said to Yang Feng, "Xiaofengzi, you sit too!"

"Uh... better not!" Yang Feng felt overwhelmed!

"Don’t be a nuisance like a woman, don’t talk back to me; if I say sit, just sit!" Dragon King asserted vigorously.

Yang Feng dared not defy, obediently sitting down.
