"All right, Mr. Xu, please come this way."
Upon hearing Xu Wenxuan's words, Lin Chen smiled slightly, not refusing.
He certainly knew the man's intentions.
Didn't he just want to step on him to impress Zhang Ying?
It was a pity that the car he drove today was from the Sun family.
A car worth millions, to be outshone by a car personally selected by Sun Zhiqian, was it too naive?
Immediately, the three of them, each with their own thoughts, walked towards the parking lot.
As soon as they got there, they saw a blue Lamborghini parked in the most conspicuous spot of the garage, truly eye-catching under the lights.
Several young people were also gathered around the car, taking pictures.
"Miss Zhang, look, that's my car!"
Seeing the people taking photos around, a smile curved Xu Wenxuan's lips.
In his opinion, how could these two country bumpkins have seen such a spectacle?
"Oh, oh, oh, it is quite good-looking!"
Upon seeing the car, Zhang Ying nodded and praised it.
"How about it, Miss Zhang, shall we go for a spin together?"
"I've booked a private room on the top floor of the Crown Hotel, which is the most luxurious hotel in Beichuan. We can have dinner and then enjoy the night view of Beichuan together."
Seeing Zhang Ying's interest, Xu Wenxuan became even more excited.
No woman could resist this combination of moves!
He had successfully wooed several women with this approach in the past.
Zhang Ying in front of him would surely be no exception!
"Not interested, Lin Chen, I still want to eat the food you make."
Zhang Ying took Lin Chen's arm of her own accord, a smile on her face.
Having been imprisoned for ten years, she was far more sensitive to emotions than others.
Therefore, she knew very well that when she had praised the Lamborghini just now, her junior disciple had been jealous!
Although it was only for a moment, her eyes had never left Lin Chen, so she naturally noticed it.
But since Lin Chen had publicly admitted to being her fiancé just now, how could she, as the fiancée, let Lin Chen be sad?
"Hahaha, okay."
Hearing his senior sister's words, Lin Chen burst into laughter.
"Miss Zhang, the Crown Hotel is the best hotel in all of Beichuan. It has abalone and lobster, things you can never afford in the countryside. Each one costs thousands. Don't you really want to see it?"
"Also, after dinner, I can take you shopping. iPhones, luxury bags, whatever you want to buy, I'll buy it for you. How about that?"
Seeing that his approach didn't work, Xu Wenxuan quickly added.
In his opinion, Zhang Ying must have just come from the countryside and didn't know the value of these things!
However, before Xu Wenxuan could say anything else, a Rolls-Royce Phantom stopped in front of them.
The driver's door opened, and a middle-aged man in a suit got out.
Upon seeing him, Xu Wenxuan's eyes lit up.
"Manager Sun!"
Overjoyed, Xu Wenxuan completely ignored Zhang Ying beside him and eagerly went to greet the man.
Sun Bin, the general manager of the Sun Group in Beichuan, a tycoon worth billions!
Now that he had stopped his car in front of him, was he coming to greet him personally?
But it made sense, after all, he had met this Manager Sun at a Sun Group banquet a few days ago. And now, in front of this car, besides himself, there were only two country bumpkins.
This Manager Sun must be coming for him!
"Heh, hello."
Sun Bin forced a smile, bypassed Xu Wenxuan directly, opened the rear passenger door, and made a gesture of invitation to Lin Chen and Zhang Ying beside him.
"Mr. Lin, Miss Zhang, please get in."
Sun Bin's actions were smooth and efficient, without any hesitation.
It was as if he wasn't the general manager of the Sun Group, but a professional driver!
"Senior sister, let's go."
Lin Chen smiled slightly and led Zhang Ying into the car.
After Sun Bin thoughtfully closed the car door, he returned to the driver's seat, started the engine, and sped away.
Xu Wenxuan stood still, dazed and unable to comprehend what had just happened, even after the car had driven far away.
Good heavens, was he hallucinating just now, and mistook someone?
Dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with white gloves and anti-glare sunglasses, this was clearly the standard attire of a driver!
Could that person just now really be the general manager of the Sun Group?
After all, no matter what, it would be too ridiculous for the general manager of a multi-billion dollar group to personally act as a driver.
...
At this moment, Lin Chen and Zhang Ying didn't pay much attention to this minor incident.
Sun Bin drove very well, and the two of them arrived at the Sun family mansion without any bumps.
The Sun family was still as bustling as ever.
However, those who were still present now were almost all participants in the Southwest Grand Competition.
After Lin Chen and Zhang Ying got out of the car, they intended to greet Sun Zhiqian and introduce their senior sister to each other.
But as soon as they reached the reception hall, they found that the atmosphere inside was very wrong.
"Patriarch Sun, we are old friends."
"Since that's the case, I'll get straight to the point."
"From now on, your Sun family will become an affiliated family of our Blazing Fire Sect, and you will pay fifty percent of your annual profits as protection fees."
"Otherwise, in future Southwest Grand Competitions, we will kill as many people as you send in!"
A man with a rough appearance sat on a chair, looking at Sun Zhiqian with disdain.
"Elder Wu, aren't you Blazing Fire Sect being too overbearing?"
"Our Sun family is also one of the five major sects and four prominent families of the Southwest. How can we become an affiliated family of your Blazing Fire Sect?"
Upon hearing this man's words, Sun Zhiqian almost spat out a mouthful of blood in anger.
Good heavens, for the dignified Sun family to become an affiliated family and pay fifty percent of their profits as protection fees, this was simply blatant robbery!
"Tch, five major sects and four prominent families?"
"Patriarch Sun, does your Sun family still have the qualification to be ranked among the five major sects and four prominent families?"
"If I'm not mistaken, your Sun family's Grand Elder should already be dead, right?"
"This means that your Sun family currently only has three cultivators at the late stage of Core Formation."
"But I'm telling you, our Blazing Fire Sect's Grand Elder, Wu Quanguí, is now a half-step Nascent Soul mighty figure!"
"If you don't agree, don't blame us Blazing Fire Sect for taking action against you!"
The fifth elder was full of arrogance.
The five major sects and four prominent families of the Southwest previously had several cultivators at the peak of the late stage of Core Formation.
But now, with their Blazing Fire Sect's Grand Elder reaching the half-step Nascent Soul stage, it was time for them to rise!
The Sun family was the first family they would target!
