"Lin Fan?"
Li Yusheng's heart skipped a beat. "Give me the phone."
He took the phone from his sister, took a deep breath, and calmed his agitated nerves.
"Hello."
"Junior Brother Yusheng, long time no see."
Lin Fan's eyes sparkled as he appraised the imposter opposite him, greeting him with a smile.
"Senior Brother Lin, it has been a while."
Li Yusheng said awkwardly.
Firstly, in the previous duel, Lin Fan had let him and his sister have a round, preventing the Li Qi Sect from losing too much face.
Secondly, Zhong Chen held a higher seniority, so he indeed had to address Lin Fan as Senior Brother.
"Junior Brother Yusheng."
Silence fell over the dining table instantly, as the name Lin Fan had uttered was simply astonishing.
"I just wanted to ask, have you ever drawn a match with anyone else before?"
"A draw?"
Li Yusheng was utterly bewildered.
He glanced at his sister opposite him, and a surge of pride rushed into his mind.
"Since my debut, apart from you, I have never been defeated!"
"Oh? Is that so?"
Lin Fan feigned surprise. "Then that's strange."
He looked at the imposter opposite him. "How come I've just encountered someone who claims to have drawn with you?"
"Absolutely impossible!"
Li Yusheng stated resolutely.
What a joke!
Apart from a monstrous talent like Lin Fan, who else could compare to his sister?
"Master Lin."
Lin Fan cocked his chin. "Li Yusheng said he didn't draw with you?"
"Young man, everyone present is a person of standing."
Lin Fan's face darkened, his hands pressing on the table. "You playing such a joke, not only embarrasses yourself but at least consider Section Chief Wang's reputation."
"What did you say?"
Wang Ying erupted in anger.
Sun Yang frowned.
They always said a woman in love has an IQ close to zero, but why was Wang Ying like this too?
Lin Fan randomly made a phone call and said a few words, and the person on the other end was necessarily Li Yusheng?
And calling him Junior Brother Yusheng, it was too casual!
"Section Chief Wang, don't be angry, hurry up and serve the food, what are you doing?"
Sun Yang yelled, then smiled amiably. "Let's eat first."
"Senior Brother Lin, what exactly do you mean?"
Li Yusheng felt inexplicable.
"Junior Brother Yusheng, there is a Taoist priest in front of me, claiming to be Lin Fan, that Lin with the ancient surname. He said he drew with you."
Lin Fan snorted, "I said that's not true, but the people around me don't quite believe it."
"What?"
Before Li Yusheng could speak, his sister opposite him mouthed: "Video call, video call."
"Senior Brother Lin, let's video call. I also want to see who is defaming my name."
"Okay."
Lin Fan hung up and turned to smile at Wang Ying. "Do you want to see the real Li Yusheng?"
"Yes!"
Wang Ying's curiosity had long been piqued.
To be able to draw with her beloved, they must be very formidable!
Lin Fan was filled with disbelief, his expression fluctuating.
It was absolutely impossible!
According to the information he had obtained, the real Lin Fan had only managed a draw with Li Yusheng under extremely difficult circumstances.
And the outcome of the first round was also debatable.
To say he had tried every means to let Li Yusheng have his way, barely managing a draw?
Heh, he was bragging without even drafting an outline.
Lin Fan composed himself and stared intently at Lin Fan.
A moment later, the video call connected.
Wang Ying stared at the phone screen with great interest. After a few flashes, the image became clear.
A gentle and elegant young man sat at a desk, with antique bookshelves filled with various books behind him.
"Let me see."
Li Yurou squeezed next to her brother, curiously observing the screen.
"Oh my, what a beautiful sister."
Upon seeing Wang Ying, Li Yurou exclaimed.
"Little sister, you are very beautiful too."
Wang Ying smiled and waved. The child's distinct black and white eyes were very lively, making a deep impression.
She turned to glance at Lin Fan, her gaze full of subtle meaning.
"Why are you looking at me?"
Lin Fan asked in confusion, then rotated the phone, allowing the Li Yusheng siblings to get a clear view of their surroundings.
Finally, he pointed the camera at Lin Fan and the golden couple.
"Junior Brother Yusheng, watch closely, this is Lin Fan who claims to have drawn with you."
"Liar! We don't know him at all!"
Li Yurou shouted angrily.
Li Yusheng gently pushed his sister aside and said sternly, "I am Li Yusheng of the Jiangxiang Sect. May I know who you are, esteemed master? Dare you give the Jiangxiang Sect an explanation!"
The Jiangxiang Sect had a poor reputation since ancient times; trickery and deception were their specialties.
He never expected someone to dare to use his name to swindle others, it was simply provoking trouble!
Sun Yang and the others exchanged glances, sensing that the matter was not simple.
Because Lin Fan was too calm.
From the very beginning, he seemed to be in full control, exuding an air of confidence.
In contrast, Lin Fan, despite maintaining the image of a reclusive master, had lost his composure several times, which everyone had witnessed.
This made them have to doubt.
After a silent exchange of glances, they decided to wait and see.
Lin Fan grinned. "You're quite good at acting. You say you are Li Yusheng, but the Li Yusheng I know doesn't look like you at all."
"You're talking nonsense!"
Li Yurou directly cursed.
"He is my brother, Li Yusheng, and I am Li Yurou. Who do you think you are?"
"This humble Taoist priest uses his proper name, Lin Fan, with the Taoist title Qingyi Zhenren."
Lin Fan put on a master's demeanor and added, "Little girl, it's not good to curse."
He looked directly at Lin Fan. "Shouldn't this farce come to an end? I'll give Section Chief Wang some face, and we'll just let it go."
"Let it go? You wish!"
Li Yurou was indignant, clenching her small fists. "Wait until I report to my Uncle Master, and you'll regret it!"
"Little girl, even if you're acting, there are limits."
Lin Fan frowned, waving his hand impatiently.
He thought to himself that Li Yusheng was a prodigy, and would never allow a little girl to chatter incessantly in front of him without any respect for hierarchy.
Most likely, this Li Yusheng was also a fake.
Thinking this, he felt much more at ease.
"Acting?"
Li Yurou pointed at herself, as if she had heard the most ridiculous thing in the world.
Her gaze inadvertently swept across the wall, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Everyone present, watch closely, I'll show you the foundation of the Jiangxiang Sect."
Li Yurou took her brother's phone and trotted over to the opposite wall.
The woman's voice was pleasant to hear, so Sun Yang and the others naturally heard everything.
They stood up in unison, raising their heads to look at the screen, eager to see how this little girl would prove herself.
Li Yurou first adjusted the camera, then aimed it at a photo frame on the wall.
In the photo, filled with a sense of time, two men dressed in the style of the eighties and nineties were arm in arm, smiling happily.
