Lin Fan came to the Yun Sect initially just to solve a problem, but never thought he’d end up picking up a wife. Now the situation is a bit like a young man who went to Africa to work and accidentally became a chieftain, leaving people in fits and starts.

"Thus, in general, we truly trust Qing Yao. She’s very sensible. Over the years, she’s encountered many people in the outside world, but never has a man touched her heart. She understands you better than we do. If you can move her, it shows you’re indeed remarkable," said Grandma.

Lin Fan, young and already a trillionaire tycoon, the richest in Yun City, possessing a trillion-dollar conglomerate and excelling in both medicine and martial arts, such a son-in-law is rare even with a lit lantern. If Lin Fan could be the son-in-law of the Yun Clan, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. Along with Yun Qingyao, a genius young lady, they would be a perfect match, ensuring the Yun Clan’s future is bright. The hope of becoming a Super Hidden Sect is highly possible. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

So when Lin Fan asked if the Yun Sect wanted to recruit him as a son-in-law, they definitely did; just as much as the King of the Kingdom of Women wants to recruit Tang Monk as a son-in-law, they want Lin Fan as a son-in-law.

"Mr. Lin, don’t doubt our sincerity. We will never treat Mr. Lin unfairly if he becomes the son-in-law of our Yun Clan. In the future, Mr. Lin’s status in the Yun Clan will be very high. Once our generation steps down and Qing Yao becomes the Sect Leader, Mr. Lin will be second only to her. This is an unprecedented privilege in the history of the Yun Clan. That’s one thing. The second is, as I said earlier, Mr. Lin will discover a tremendous benefit. And thirdly, aside from the above, my Qing Yao is of celestial beauty; she is excellent in herself. If Mr. Lin has such a wife, will he still be dissatisfied?"

Grandma looked at Lin Fan and said, not to mention Lin Fan, she herself was convinced. If she were a man, she would want to marry Yun Qingyao.

How beautiful is Yun Qingyao? The King of the Kingdom of Women said to Tang Monk, "If you open your eyes to look at me, I don’t believe your eyes are empty." If a man sees Yun Qingyao and says he’s not moved, he’s not a normal man.

Would Lin Fan not be moved?

Lin Fan listened and smiled slightly, saying, "I’ve understood what the elder said; you’re right. Which man in the world could refuse Yun Qingyao?"

Grandma was pleased: "So, Mr. Lin agreed?"

Lin Fan said: "No, the basic condition for men and women to be together is mutual affection; a forcibly twisted melon is not sweet. Has the elder considered the possibility that Yun Qingyao reveals her true appearance not because she’s moved by me?"

Grandma was taken aback: "What are you saying?"

Lin Fan said: "You just mentioned that Yun Qingyao went outside to study from a young age; perhaps her ideology is not as traditional as you think. Does this clan rule really bind her? If she reveals her face to me just to thank me and not because she’s fond of me, isn’t it awkward?"

Grandma said: "Impossible, Mr. Lin, don’t speak nonsense!"

Lin Fan said: "I’m not speaking nonsense; it was Yun Qingyao who personally told me earlier. She didn’t mean it that way, so everyone might have misunderstood."

That was awkward.

Grandma frowned and then relaxed, chuckling: "Qing Yao might be shy, which is why she said so. Clan rules are what everyone must follow; only to someone she fancies would she reveal her true face. Mr. Lin, don’t doubt it; as long as Mr. Lin nods, your marriage will be settled."

Lin Fan said: "Alright, same words again: asking me to marry into the Yun Clan is impossible."

Grandma was a bit upset immediately. She offered so many benefits, and Lin Fan still had no plans of changing his mind?

What else needs to be done to make Lin Fan agree to marry in?

"Could Mr. Lin explain the reason for refusing to marry in?" Grandma asked.

Lin Fan said: "Marring into the Yun Sect, I’d become part of the Yun Clan in the future. That’s asking me to abandon my ancestry. Don’t mention my being the only son in my family; even if I had brothers, I wouldn’t want to. The elder pointed out many benefits just now. Yes, Yun Qingyao is very excellent and beautiful, but these are not worth leaving my lineage for. The descendants of Lin Fan can only be of the Lin Family, not the Yun Family."

Lin Fan indeed found no reason to marry into the Yun Sect; speaking of status, even becoming a Sect Leader for the Yun Clan, what significance does that hold for him? He looks down on it.

Speaking of money, he himself is a tycoon; the accumulated industry of the Yun Clan might not surpass his.

Speaking of beauty, indeed, Yun Qingyao is a rare gem on earth; such beauty is outstanding anywhere in the world. Yun Qingyao herself is the most captivating, and surely countless men would willingly go crazy for her, offer themselves to her, but that excludes Lin Fan.

Unlike that time with Wei Qingxue, previously Lin Fan married into the Wei Family as a system task, and that marriage was only pretending. This time is different; once Lin Fan marries into the Yun Sect, he will be a member of the Yun Clan forever.

Grandma was stunned; she recalled the word that Yun Zhongzheng mentioned, "ill-fated relationship." She initially thought she could convince Lin Fan but now sees she can’t persuade him, making it a true ill-fated relationship. Just like the King of the Kingdom of Women and Tang Monk—some things can’t be changed; they can only have affinity without destiny.

Yun Clan unable to recruit Lin Fan as a son-in-law will be a regrettable matter; such an outstanding son-in-law like Lin Fan will be difficult to find in the future.

On the other hand, Qing Yao finally encounters a man she admires, yet ends without results. She must be very sad; this child is heartaching.

Grandma has always doted on Yun Qingyao, truly can’t bear to see Yun Qingyao hurting for love.

Grandma understands Yun Qingyao. Yun Qingyao told Lin Fan she revealed her true face and didn’t mean it that way, which must be deceit to Lin Fan; this child is shy on one hand, concerned about Lin Fan’s awkwardness on the other, hence spoke so.

This is common in the Yun Clan; if a Yun Clan woman fancies a man but is shy to confess, the elders can help propose. Per clan rules, once a woman reveals her true face, everyone knows her intention, and elders would gladly fulfill it.

Historically, whenever an arranged marriage occurs, more emphasis is placed on the woman’s personal choice. Ancient marriages followed parents’ orders and matchmaker’s words, which were arranged by elders. Yet, arranged marriages are unique; a woman can freely choose a partner she fancies.

It’s the same in the Yun Clan; as long as the woman chooses herself, generally it will be fulfilled, unless the man is truly lacking, the family will then intervene to prevent it.

Lin Fan, chosen by Yun Qingyao, is indeed a dragon among men. Therefore, the Yun Clan not only intends not to prevent but also eagerly wants it accomplished; marrying on the spot would be best.

At this moment, it’s necessary to ask Yun Qingyao, the statement she made then, "Her revealing her true face wasn’t that meaning," what does it mean?

Was she genuinely meaning that, or was she faking?

At this point, after Lin Fan was called away by Grandma, Yun Qingyao neither continued dancing, she returned to her seat and quietly looked at the glass of wine in front of her, unclear what she was thinking, appearing somewhat absent-minded.
