Awakening With An Expert Identification Skill - Chapter 27

Chapter 27: Benevolent Father And Filial Son

If the first step was not successful, the following plans he had made would naturally be useless.

But most importantly, Han Bing didn’t think that Lin Fan would reject him.

What should he do?

For a moment, Han Bing was dumbfounded.

Seeing her daughter cultivate with high spirits, he felt a little gratified. At least what he did was not completely fruitless. At least this made his daughter work harder. Han Miaotong’s talent was also very good, and she even had an elemental talent.

Of course, he was even more indignant. His daughter wasn’t bad either. She was pretty, tall, good in her studies, and had a good personality. But Lin Fan, this dog, had actually rejected such an outstanding girl. He was really too much.

Wait, could it be that he was playing hard to get?

With Lin Fan’s intelligence, this was something he could do. With this, Han Miaotong’s impression of Lin Fan became even better. She even had a trace of respect and admiration towards him, making her impression of him increase exponentially.

However, this thought was also rejected by Han Bing. That was impossible. Did he have to play so many tricks when he could get something he wanted? Furthermore, he had even rejected so many free resources?

Unless there was something wrong with his brain!

As for Lin Fan, it was clear that he wasn’t stupid.

Han Bing stood in his spot for a long time. He just could not figure out what went wrong!

“I’d better go and ask around. I can’t accept this!” Han Bing turned around and went to ask around.

Naturally, he was going to look for Guo Wentao and Duan Chuan who had also given Lin Fan resources. He didn’t know where he had lost to them.

Yes, if Lin Fan didn’t accept anyone’s resources, he would feel much better. But he felt that Lin Fan should have accepted the resources from these two people.

…

Guo Family.

When Guo Zhen returned home. Guo Wentao had been waiting at home. When he saw his son, he immediately asked, “Rascal, how is it? Has Lin Fan accepted it?”

“Dad, aren’t you too stingy?” Guo Zhen said.

Guo Wentao: “??? Ah?”

“I felt that we have given too little to Brother Fan.”

‘???’

Guo Wentao’s head was full of question marks. What nonsense was this idiotic son of his talking about?

When he first brought up this idea, Guo Zhen had even asked if Lin Fan was his illegitimate son as Guo Zhen thought that he was just being too nice to Lin Fan.

Now that he was back, he was actually saying that he was too stingy?

Was there something wrong with his son’s brain?

Maybe some beating should do the job.

Pa!

Guo Wentao raised his hand and patted Guo Zhen’s head. With a cold face, he shouted, “Speak properly.”

Guo Zhen immediately became well-behaved and began to narrate everything that happened in the morning.

Guo Wentao was very satisfied with his son’s reaction. He fully understood this joker son of his.

“What? You’re saying that Han Bing’s daughter went to give Lin Fan resources too? Twenty drops of First-grade demon’s blood essence, one Acupoint Unlocking Pill, and two basic cultivation techniques?”

Guo Wentao was shocked when he heard this. This was a huge sum. It was close to a million yuan worth of resources in one go. For an ordinary family, it was a lifetime of accumulation.

This made Guo Wentao’s heart sink. In his opinion, Lin Fan had definitely accepted Han Bing’s resources. After all, even a fool would choose to do that. The amount of resources presented to him was just too tempting.

The amount he had asked Guo Zhen to bring over was only worth 200,000 yuan. Furthermore, the Acupoint Unlocking Pill wasn’t something that anyone could buy just because they wanted to. During this period of time, the supply of such a pill couldn’t meet the demand.

“Yes, it was even placed right in front of me. Teacher Duan said that the Acupoint Unlocking Pill is even worth 500,000 yuan,” Guo Zhen said with certainty. There was a hint of desire on his face.

If he had one, he would definitely be able to break through to become a First-grade Two-star immediately, or even a First-grade Three-star.

“You didn’t manage to give our resources to him too?” Guo Wentao didn’t have any hope in his heart.

“Huh? What do you mean?”

Guo Zhen had a blank look on his face when his fantasy was interrupted.

Guo Wentao sighed. Seeing his son like this, he couldn’t even be bothered to scold him anymore. He must have failed. He stood up and said regretfully, “You’re right. Your dad has really thought too highly of himself and didn’t prepare enough. This time, I guess I’ve fared a little worse. I didn’t expect Han Bing to move so quickly. Furthermore, he’s already so generous on his first meeting. As expected of City Lord Han. Indeed, a dragon does not belong in a pond. Someone like Lin Fan, I should have long…” His words were cut off as if they had been edited.

This was because he heard Guo Zhen’s following words. “Dad, what are you saying? Brother Fan rejected the resources Han Miaotong gave him.”

Guo Wentao’s body stiffened, then he suddenly turned around and asked loudly, “What did you say?”

“Dad, is there something wrong with your ears? I said, Brother Fan rejected the resources that Han Miaotong gave him!” Guo Zhen still felt a little regretful for Lin Fan. “If I had all those resources, I would definitely be able to break through to become a First-grade Five-star Awakened Being, no, perhaps even a First-grade Six-star.”

Guo Wentao’s hand suddenly grabbed onto Guo Zhen’s head and squeezed it with all his might. With a creaking sound, he roared, “You little brat, why didn’t you say so earlier? Why did you blabber so much useless stuff just now?”

“I was just about to say it, but you suddenly interrupted me!” Guo Zhen said aggrievedly.

How could he be blamed?

He wanted to shout too, but he didn’t dare! His head was still in his father’s hands. This was a blatant threat.

“Be honest.”

Guo Wentao said expressionlessly, “Then Lin Fan accepted your mother’s gift of gratitude?”

“Of course, with my relationship with Brother Fan, he naturally accepted it.” Guo Zhen said seriously.

At this moment, Guo Wentao’s chubby face was smiling like a blooming chrysanthemum, like a kind father. His large hand changed to touching Guo Zhen’s head. “As expected of my good son, you’re awesome!”

Guo Zhen didn’t say a word. When Guo Wentao finally removed his hand from his head, he immediately ran far away and muttered, “Hypocritical person.”

Guo Wentao looked at Guo Zhen with a smile and didn’t say anything. He was in a good mood now and didn’t want to hit this thing that didn’t act like his son. Instead, he continued to ask, “Son, do you think I should prepare some more resources to send to Lin Fan?”

Guo Zhen shook his head. “I don’t think you should. When I came back, Brother Fan already told me not to send any more resources over. He wouldn’t accept it. Also, Brother Fan could tell that this was your idea.”

Guo Wentao was stunned for a moment. Then, he nodded his head.

Since Lin Fan had rejected the gifts from Han Bing, it meant that he had only accepted his gifts because of his son’s relationship with Lin Fan. Otherwise, Lin Fan definitely wouldn’t have accepted it.

Even if he did, he would have definitely chosen Han Bing’s side. The Guo family could not compare to the Han family.

Guo Wentao touched his face and pondered. He was racking his brains. With Han Bing’s actions, he felt that his gratitude for yesterday’s incident was too light.

At the same time, he understood Lin Fan’s rare character. One shouldn’t look down on a person’s character. When people with such a character rose up in the future, he would always remember those who had helped him in the past.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Fan was someone worth investing in. Guo Wentao was also willing to increase his investment but Lin Fan had already said that he wouldn’t accept it.

However, as a businessman, he could think of another way. If he didn’t accept the gift voluntarily, what about making him accept it passively?

Compared to the Han family, the only difference the Guo family had was Guo Zhen’s relationship with Lin Fan, who were childhood buddies since young.

In reality, Guo Wentao had heard about Lin Fan a long time ago. He knew that his son had a peculiar friend named Lin Fan. However, he didn’t really care much about it as that was his son’s business. Furthermore, his son didn’t really suffer any losses.

Anyways, it didn’t matter if his child suffered some losses when he was young. It was better to suffer some losses now than when he grew up. Hence, he allowed his son’s relationship with Lin Fan to develop.

Guo Wentao suddenly thought of something. He raised his head, waved at Guo Zhen, and whispered something.

A hint of shock appeared on Guo Zhen’s honest face. He said hesitantly, “Dad, will this… work?”

“Absolutely. Dad will help you with the client.”

“Dad, I feel like you’re full of bad ideas.”

“Scram, I am doing all these for you.”
