From the Hong Ying Group to the manager of the North Island branch, Si Haixiao's position had changed a lot. Not only did he have his own connections, but more importantly, Nan Tianba and the others' uncles had spent a lot of money to help him get in touch with an amazing business performance. This made him, a supervisor who was not in charge of business, stand out in the Hong Chamber of Commerce and had the capital to compete for a higher position.
Seeing that Si Haixiao had already put it this way, Nan Tianba and the others could not force him and could only nod silently.
"During this period of time, I'd better think of a way to investigate the whereabouts of Lin Er for you." Si Haixiao laughed. Although he was not familiar with the people and the place, he had a deep relationship with the Hong Ying Group's intelligence system. If he wanted to use the Hong Ying Group's intelligence force in the North Island, it was just a matter of a word.
"Thank you, Manager Si!" Nan Tianba and the others were immediately overjoyed.
They only wanted revenge against Lin Yi, but if they found Lin Er, not only could they avenge their third brother, Nan Tianyong, but they could also get a huge benefit like the Star Inkstone. This matter was much more important.
At the same time, Si Haixiao, Nan Tianba, and the others were planning on this side. After sending Hong Zhong away, Lin Yi went to find the Garbage King and gave him all the materials he needed, shocking the guy to the point where his jaw dropped.
Although he listed seven kinds of casting materials for Lin Yi and pointed out the way of auction, the King of Junk really did not expect that Lin Yi could buy them so smoothly. If it was him, he probably would not have the hope of collecting so many top-grade materials in his life.
The casting materials had been collected, but the King of Junk did not immediately start casting. As a casting master, he needed to spend time to familiarize himself with these materials. Otherwise, if he acted rashly, the success rate would be worrying.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, didn't have much to do during this time- the professional, the King of Junk, was in charge of the preparations. As for the daily life in the Welcome Pavilion, because of Xu Lingchong's sudden disappearance, Kang Ming Ming's group had obviously ceased all activities. Consequently, Lin Yi's life became peaceful.
Murong Zhen gritted her teeth, but there was nothing she could do. Without Kang Ming Ming and the others to stand up for her, it would be impossible for her to defeat Lin Yi on her own.
However, how could a vengeful creature like her give up so easily? Since there was no opportunity to push the boat along with the current, then he would take the initiative to create an opportunity and stir up more waves!
… …
While the King of Junk was making his final preparations, Lin Yi was cultivating as usual. Other than familiarizing himself with the new killer moves, he also needed time to stabilize his new realm.
Previously, he had heard people say that every peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm was an insurmountable threshold. The last time he broke through to the peak of the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm was a clear example. This time, he was at the peak of the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. If he did not diligently cultivate, then no matter how many pills he had, it would be useless.
However, just a few days ago, there was a rumor about Lin Yi. It was widely spread in the Three Pavilions.
"Boss, is it true that you like Miss Shangguan?" When they got together, Qiao Hong asked with a mischievous look. "Boss, is it true? Even Senior Brother Bitter, Xiao Ran, and Li Zhengming had the word "gossip" written clearly on their faces.
"What do you mean?" Lin Yi was confused.
"Junior Brother Lin. You don't have to pretend in front of us. It's not shameful to say it out loud. Just admit it. "Even an honest man like Senior Brother Bitter began to wink at him.
Lin Yi was even more confused. He looked at them with strange expressions and asked curiously, "What's going on? What do you want me to admit? "
The few of them looked at each other. In the end, it was still Xiao Ran who slowly explained, "Recently, there has been a very hot rumor circulating in the streets. Boss, you like Miss Shangguan, but unfortunately, you didn't confess to her during the birthday party. Xu Lingchong realized the danger because he saw you alone with Miss Shangguan. That was why he attempted to rape you."
This rumor could be said to have a nose and eyes, and it did somewhat corroborate the situation that day. In addition, the protagonists were influential figures like Shangguan Laner and Xu Lingchong, so it was completely in line with everyone's needs for gossip. It was reasonable that it spread more and more intensely in a place like the Three Pavilions.
Looking at the few people with a strong thirst for knowledge, Lin Yi shrugged helplessly, "It's said that rumors stop with the wise. You guys don't really believe that there's such a thing, right? There's obviously a problem with the logic here. If I failed to confess to Shangguan Laner, then what's Xu Lingchong worried about? Just because he saw me getting closer to Shangguan Laner, he went crazy and tried to rape her. In the end, he ended up being wanted on the wanted list. Is Xu Lingchong so brainless? "
"That's true." Senior Brother Bitter and the others nodded one after another.
In fact, they didn't really believe this rumor, but it was an obvious fact that Shangguan Laner looked at Lin Yi in a different light. In the end, they just wanted to know if Lin Yi was interested in this Miss Shangguan.
"However, this rumor suddenly came out. Is it purely because everyone is gossiping, or is someone playing tricks in the dark?" Lin Yi couldn't help but have more doubts between his brows.
Regardless of what more far-reaching impact it would have in the future, this rumor had already put Lin Yi on fire. Next, Lin Yi's every move would be paid attention to. It was really not a small trouble.
When Lin Yi said this, Senior Brother Bitter and the others' eyelids twitched at the same time, "Yes, if this rumor is taken seriously, then Junior Brother Lin, you're in danger. This is equivalent to becoming the culprit of Xu Lingchong's current situation. Xu Yuanzheng has always regarded him as the future of the Xu family. It's hard to guarantee that he won't retaliate!"
"That's a possibility. However, Xu Yuanzheng is an Elder, and he has always presented himself as a righteous and honorable person. The possibility of him making a move against me shouldn't be high. After all, that would give others a chance to use him against me." Lin Yi shook his head. Compared to his own situation, he was more worried about Shangguan Lan 'er.
Although she had the dazzling halo of Shangguan Tianhua's only granddaughter, Shanghai Laner did not have much strength. She was a little naive and simple, and she often sneaked out with the Little Curly Bear. If someone really wanted to target her, there was a chance that they would succeed.
It was unknown whether they had a tacit understanding, or Cao Cao just arrived on time. While they were discussing, they saw a small figure in the distance running towards Lin Yi. It was the Little Curly Bear.
