"No no no! Brother Lin, you misunderstood. I didn’t an it like that, it’s just..." Hai Zhilan lowered his head, feeling mixed emotions and unsure how to directly respond to Lin Zifeng’s question.
"If there’s anything difficult, just say it. You’re already calling Brother Lin, so is there any need to hold back?" Lin Zifeng smiled.
He knew that once he solidified his relationship with Hai Zhilan, the heavenly materials and earthly treasures at the auction that could enhance cultivation would naturally fall into his hands. He dared not reveal the primordial energy inside the Magic Bracelet at this ti, or else everyone worldwide would hunt him down.
"Brother Lin, to be honest, our Hai family is currently in very complicated relationships. The family supports my brother, and I’m afraid..."
"Afraid of what?" Lin Zifeng looked at him.
"Alas, Brother Lin, talking about it more is useless. In Yanjing, every family puts interests first. If you can’t contribute to the family, no matter who you are, you will lose your original presence in the family."
"If you work a little harder, maybe you can change the current situation?" Lin Zifeng said.
He had already roughly understood Hai Zhilan’s current situation, but who could say this situation couldn’t be changed?
Lin Zifeng even had a terrifying thought for a mont.
If he helped Hai Zhilan beco the next Family Head of the Hai family, would Hai Zhilan be under his control then?
South Heavenly Gate would certainly grow stronger, and growing stronger naturally required strength. If it was rely about enhancing the cultivation levels of Black Hawk and the others, it would be useless. He needed the comprehensive strength of everyone in South Heavenly Gate. A few people ant nothing to Lin Zifeng.
If he controlled the Hai family’s auction and possessed the Magic Bracelet with its infinite primordial energy, even if people around him couldn’t reach the Qi Dao Realm, having every one of them in the Condensation Realm would still be terrifying.
A single cultivator in the Condensation Realm might be nothing, but what about ten? A hundred? Ten thousand? A hundred thousand? Who in all of Huaxia would dare to challenge South Heavenly Gate?
"Ha, work harder? How can I push myself harder?" Hai Zhilan mocked himself, a bitter smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. It wasn’t that he hadn’t tried before, but limited by talent, effort alone couldn’t achieve everything.
"For soone like who’s useless, no matter how hard I try, it’s pointless."
"So you just give up? Just beco a useless person?" Lin Zifeng asked expressionlessly.
"Brother Lin, you don’t understand. My brother, Hai Wuyan, is soone with incredibly high talent, and so is my sister, Hai Lanxin. They’re both talented geniuses. How can soone of diocre aptitude like compare to them? Just being able to stay alive is already a blessing." When he said this, Hai Zhilan’s mood worsened.
He wasn’t a man who liked to talk about his personal misfortunes, so bringing this up now was only because of Lin Zifeng’s presence, otherwise, he wouldn’t ntion it at all.
"If you want to prove yourself, then what if you’re of average aptitude? As long as you want to do sothing, even God will create opportunities for you!"
"What!" Hai Zhilan looked up abruptly, deeply moved by Lin Zifeng’s words, ’As long as you want to do sothing, even God will create opportunities.’
"People can stay still, but they should never give up on themselves. Three years on the east river, three years on the west river, don’t underestimate the poor young. If you work hard, maybe you won’t be like this now." Lin Zifeng tried his best to comfort him. Whether it would work depended on him, after all, no one else could help him.
"Brother Lin!" Tears welled up in Hai Zhilan’s eyes as if he gained enlightennt.
"Think it through and co find again." Lin Zifeng stood up, patted his shoulder, then turned and left...
He still had dinner with Zhang Xixi tonight, so he couldn’t delay.
As for the words of comfort to Hai Zhilan, if he accepted them, great; if not, it didn’t matter. Lin Zifeng’s plan had only just begun...
Soon after Lin Zifeng left, Hai Zhilan fell into a deep self-reflection. He kept asking himself why. Why he was spiraling downwards, perhaps it really was as Lin Zifeng had said.
As long as I want to do sothing, even God will create opportunities for —right?
......
After leaving the café, it was just the ti when Huayu Group was off work, and just walking out of the café, he received a call from Zhang Xixi.
Zhang Xixi could have moved into the villa Mu Yang recently helped Lin Zifeng purchase. This villa was large, with Nangong Bing already living there, while Huahua and Tangtang would move in a week later.
But this chick preferred to wait a few more days before moving in. After all, living with so many people felt quite uncomfortable. So she was temporarily staying in a hotel, agreeing to move into the villa in a couple of days...
After receiving the call, Lin Zifeng imdiately drove towards the hotel where Zhang Xixi was staying. As soon as Zhang Xixi finished work, she returned to the hotel, standing at the hotel entrance, her slender body swaying slightly in the evening breeze, her beautiful hair covering half of her pretty face.
Having waited for a while, Zhang Xixi, holding her bag, subconsciously checked the Vacheron Constantin watch on her wrist. She had been waiting for over half an hour. Yet, Lin Zifeng’s figure hadn’t appeared.
Instead...
She saw a pink mini Chery QQ...
The QQ parked right in front of Zhang Xixi, leaving her stunned. So she moved aside. But that cursed QQ car actually followed her movent.
It happened to block her view. If Brother Lin ca over later, wouldn’t he be unable to see her?
So...
"Hey, you in the QQ, can you not ss around?" Zhang Xixi put her hands on her hips, glaring angrily at the small QQ.
"Haha! Missy, are you saying you’re not even interested in looking at my car because it’s so broken?" Unexpectedly, after the mini QQ’s window rolled down, a familiar face popped up. As soon as he spoke, Zhang Xixi was stunned...
"Lin, Lin Brother! Is it you?!" Seeing the person, Zhang Xixi covered her mouth, her eyes widening in shock.
"Hahaha... A low-key man like can still be cool driving a QQ, and yet I can still pick up girls. Right?" Lin Zifeng laughed out loud.
"Then, where’s your car?" Zhang Xixi looked at him, half-exasperated, half-amused. She wasn’t expecting a Porsche, but how did he end up driving a QQ?
"Didn’t I say I’m a low-key man? Driving a QQ can still attract beautiful girls to hop in. Co on, Xixi, Brother Lin is taking you to have so fun tonight." Saying this, he got out of the car and opened the door, inviting Zhang Xixi in.
Zhang Xixi almost didn’t think twice, smiling, and got right into the QQ.
"Tell , where do you want to go tonight? Brother Lin will take you sowhere cool." Lin Zifeng smiled.
However, at that mont when he was opening the car door, a few male creatures happened to be walking past the hotel entrance. Seeing such a beautiful girl actually getting into that broken QQ, they were so angered they roared at the sky, wondering why the world was so unfair? Everyone’s a man, so why is there such a big difference?
