"Then, surely Li San and the few people with Ye Xiaofan can step in, right?"
Actually, these leaders understand that if Black Mantis can develop well in M Country, it must not be interrupted, because its smooth developnt is indeed beneficial to Huaxia.
So, if Black Mantis is unavailable, Li San and his group can surely be more reassuring.
"And you say you haven't investigated Xiaofan and the others, even Li San's group is known." Fan Lingtian intentionally kept them in suspense.
Who can deny it? Li San followed Xiaofan on an undercover mission, while Ren Ying grew up in the Ren Family. Lei Xiaolei was raised in Yanhuang Soul, and besides the less competent Li Kuo, there is also Han Shengjun, who has been promoted to captain.
Despite the tight wind of the Assassination Order, they resolutely resisted. During their havoc in Japan, they were deeply involved. These guys are too important to overlook.
"What are you fussing about? Among the younger mbers, these few are quite decent, especially Li San. I heard he's a descendant of the Swallow Sect. Let's make it quick, give an answer."
"This might be tough to handle. After all, they are no longer part of Yanhuang Soul." Fan Lingtian feigned a frown.
"This is difficult, that's difficult, Elder Fan, what exactly do you want?"
"What do you an by what I want? You need to ask Liu Xu that brat, about previously confining them, okay, but later? While being hunted by the Assassination Order, they wanted to temporarily send their loved ones into Yanhuang Soul for protection, but Liu Xu just wouldn't let Li San's girlfriend in. Oh, when tis were tough, Yanhuang Soul didn't take care, but now they need them, and you want to open my mouth now?"
Fan Lingtian's words seed sowhat extre. After all, fundantally speaking, Ruyu's identity indeed is sensitive, so Liu Xu's decision can't entirely be considered wrong.
Still, Fan Lingtian is protective; who are Li San and the others? Fan treats them like his own children, much like Shen Junjie and the others.
Fan Lingtian had a huge quarrel with Liu Xu over this matter back then. Now, having found the opportunity, he will surely seek justice for Li San.
"Alright, Lingtian, just give an answer. After all, the sooner this is confird, the better."
"Yes, Number Two, I understand. I will call them shortly." Fan Lingtian did not dare to act recklessly towards Number Two's request.
"Don't wait, call now, everyone is waiting." But this impatient leader certainly couldn't wait anymore.
Speaking of calling imdiately, several other leaders also looked over expectantly, seeming eager to resolve the matter quickly to ease everyone's mind.
Being emotional is one thing, but with such a major occasion as the 70th anniversary celebration, it can't be treated lightly. It was ti for Fan Lingtian to concede.
"Let's call Ye Xiaofan first." Number Two spoke calmly.
"Number Two, Xiaofan has a habit; generally, it's not appropriate to disturb him with calls, especially at night. If he is doing sothing important, calling might easily interfere, so we should wait on Xiaofan."
"Alright, let's first gain Li San's group's consent then."
Taking out the phone, Fan Lingtian felt a bit troubled. If he directly asks them and they agree, then his previous pretended difficulty would be exposed. But if he doesn't call now, it'd be unreasonable.
No other choice, Fan Lingtian dialed Li San's number since he knew Li San and the others were currently enjoying themselves in Thailand, without a care.
"Oh, Elder Fan, have you eaten?"
The phone had to be on speaker so everyone could clearly hear.
Once connected, Li San's cheerful voice ca through.
"Yes, eaten. You all are there?"
"We're here; what's the matter, just let us know."
Indeed, Li San respects Fan Lingtian as much as Xiaofan does, despite rarely conversing, but Fan's character is highly respected throughout Yanhuang Soul.
"Uh, well... there's a bit of a matter."
"Go ahead."
"Isn't it nearly Huaxia's 70th anniversary celebration? At that ti, there will be a fight competition with young people from other countries. Do you all have ti to participate?" Fan Lingtian asked gently.
"Fight competition? No problem, but wouldn't it be more direct to contact Xiaofan? Perhaps by then, he'll wrap up his affairs in M Country."
Sure enough, Li San answered without hesitation. If Fan Lingtian asked, he would certainly not refuse.
"Ah, just worried he might not make it, so I wanted to ask you guys first." Fan Lingtian's face wasn't looking too good; he reached for a cup of tea to ease the awkward atmosphere.
"Hey, Elder Fan..."
"Hmm?"
"Competing with young people from other countries?"
"Yes."
"If it's organized by the nation, how would we enter? Representing the country?"
"Yes, representing the country."
"Have you been reinstated as the principal of Yanhuang Soul?" Li San suddenly pivoted the conversation. Compared to before, it was noticeably different.
"No, I haven't."
"Then in the competition, we'd have to enter nominated by Yanhuang Soul? You haven't been reinstated, why does this matter fall to you?"
Well put, excellent question.
Upon hearing this question, Fan Lingtian internally gave Li San 23 kudos.
"Hey, shouldn't matter whose responsibility it is, right? We're doing it for the country; being nominated by Yanhuang Soul isn't any different."
"It is different. If this is your invitation, I, Li San, will not shy away, but if it's that Liu Xu jerk from Yanhuang Soul, don't even think about it."
"Li San, mind your words."
"Why should I mind? Elder Fan, I don't consider you an outsider, so I'll speak frankly: how did Liu Xu treat before? Speaking of the country? In my troubled tis, how did he act? I've been through life and death with Xiaofan all this ti, you've never mistreated , Xiaofan too hasn't mistreated , initially you ask, I wouldn't turn it down, but thinking about winning and letting Liu Xu take all credit, it frustrates ."
"Absolutely audacious."
Wow, Li San spoke beautifully, not only giving Fan face, but aligning perfectly with what he said to the leaders before.
"Sorry, Elder Fan, I got carried away."
