Upon hearing Lin Fan’s words, Deke’s eyes immediately lit up!

It could be said that the three conditions promised by his family to Lin Fan had always been a major headache for Deke. After all, Lin Fan was a madman; who knew how he would use these three conditions.

Deke always thought about how to resolve these three conditions. If Lin Fan was willing to exchange one of them, Deke would naturally be willing!

"Alright! I’ll help you!" Deke said without hesitation.

"Damn! Such a shrewd merchant!" Lin Fan cursed, then asked, "How many days will it take to investigate?"

"Within three days, I’ll give you the results!" Deke replied.

"Alright! I’ll wait for your news!"

After Lin Fan finished speaking, he directly hung up the phone, then proceeded to curse Deke’s ancestry in his mind, before snuggling into his bed to rest!

...

The next day!

The snow had not stopped, it was still falling.

Lin Fan got up early and worked out in the room for a while, stopping only when he was covered in sweat.

After dressing up, he walked out of the room and headed to the Dragon King’s room, where the staff had already prepared breakfast for the Dragon King.

The breakfast of the Huaxia War God was naturally not sparse, consisting of highly nutritious, energizing foods.

Seeing Lin Fan walk in, the Dragon King beamed, "Kid, you’re up early!"

"Of course, gotta get up early, or I’d miss out on your wonderful breakfast, boss!" Lin Fan laughed, grabbing a cup of hot milk and taking a big gulp.

"Haha! This breakfast is specially prepared for you, dig in!" the Dragon King beckoned.

Lin Fan didn’t stand on ceremony, sitting down and grabbing a pair of chopsticks to devour the meal.

After eating for a while, Lin Fan suddenly remembered something, curiously asking, "Where’s that old guy Ye Shouxin?"

"Humph! Outside!" The Dragon King nodded toward the door.

Looking through the glass on the door, Lin Fan saw Ye Shouxin walking to the pavilion with a teapot, while a guard moved a stove to the pavilion and lit it, setting a pot of hot water to boil!

Ye Shouxin sat on the stone stool and began meditating again!

Curiously, Lin Fan asked, "What exactly is that old guy doing?"

"He’s seeking the Way!" The Dragon King, gazing intently at Ye Shouxin in the pavilion, laughed lightly.

"Seeking the Way?" Lin Fan raised an eyebrow in surprise.

Lin Fan had a superficial understanding of "the Way" since it was something that existed in legends.

There are three thousand Ways, and everyone’s Way is different.

In novels, those who attain the Way could achieve immortality, things like that.

But in reality, those who attain the Way cannot achieve those things, but can greatly improve their mind and soul, gaining deeper insights into everything!

However, there are different Ways of the Way. For instance, someone could become heartless and ruthless, which would be the Path of Heartlessness. Someone could unite man and sword as one, which would be the Path of the Sword!

But throughout ancient and modern times, no one has ever truly attained the Way, except Laozi, the legendary founder of Taoism, who was a truly powerful being!

In summary, Lin Fan always felt that the so-called seeking of the Way was the faith in one’s heart, making people pursue their limits, and being full of longing for the future, thus never stopping!

"Anyway, I don’t believe in this stuff. I only believe in myself!" Lin Fan shook his head, unconcerned.

After eating his fill, Lin Fan didn’t linger, asked the Dragon King for a car, and drove away from Dragon Garden!

Ring Ring Ring~

Just as Lin Fan drove out of the woods outside Dragon Garden, his phone suddenly rang!

When Lin Fan saw who was calling, a faint smile appeared on his lips. Without a doubt, it was Ye Fei’Er, the one with the long legs!

Lin Fan answered the call with a smile, "Long-legged wife, what made you think of calling me? Missing me?"

"Hmph! If I didn’t call, you’d probably forget all about me!" Ye Fei’Er’s slightly jealous voice came through at once.

"Come on, wife! You’re wronging me! I could forget anyone, but not you!" Lin Fan said hastily.

"Cut it out! I heard you’re in Yanjing?" Ye Fei’Er said in a slightly exasperated tone.

"Yeah! Just came out of Dragon Garden." Lin Fan replied honestly.

"Coincidentally, I’ve been home these past few days; come over and find me. It’s been a long time since you paid your dues; my granary has been empty for a while!" Ye Fei’Er huffed.

"Yes, my dear wife, I’m on my way to fill it up!" Lin Fan chuckled, then hung up the phone and drove straight to Ye Fei’Er’s family residence in the military compound!

Lin Fan was not visiting the compound for the first time, but every time he came, he couldn’t help but praise the security energy of the place; without planes or cannons, breaking into the compound was extremely difficult!

Just as Lin Fan arrived outside the compound, he saw a graceful figure at the gate.

She was wrapped in a fur coat, wearing high boots, and underneath she had on leather pants that hugged her long, beautiful legs, with an umbrella in hand.

It was still snowing, and she stood quietly in the snow, much like a wife waiting for her husband to return home.

Without a doubt, this was Ye Fei’Er!

Seeing Ye Fei’Er, Lin Fan smiled gently, stepped on the gas, and in no time, stopped the car in front of Ye Fei’Er.

Lin Fan rolled down the car window and joked, "Hey beauty, standing out here in such heavy snow by yourself? How about getting in my car, I’ll take you home!"

Ye Fei’Er gave Lin Fan an annoyed glance and said, "Oh! I’m just a pitiful wife whose husband left here to wait for him to come back. I have no choice but to obediently wait for him to come home."

"Oh dear, beauty! Your husband is too cruel. Letting such a pretty lady stand in the snow, it’s just... too unforgivable. Hey, beauty, why not divorce your husband and come with me? Look, I’m tall, handsome, and rich; I guarantee you’ll live a good life, morning kisses, and fun at night," Lin Fan laughed. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"Oh! Your proposal is quite tempting, guess I’ll get in your car and go home with you!" Ye Fei’Er played along with Lin Fan’s act, closed up the umbrella, and got into the car!

As soon as the girl got in, before Lin Fan could say a word, that pair of long, beautiful legs began misbehaving, propping up and placing directly on Lin Fan’s lap, lightly rubbing up and down on purpose!

At this point, Lin Fan gave a wry smile and said, "There are people around, be careful."

As he spoke, Lin Fan motioned his head toward the two guards standing at the compound’s entrance.

To his surprise, Ye Fei’Er paid no attention, increasing the rubbing intensity, while sulkingly saying, "It’s because someone didn’t come to fill my storeroom, making me restless and uneasy. I’m just going to tempt you, let’s see what you can do to me?"
