Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Lin Ran also asked Chen Qi at that time, hadn't his name been reported to the program team?

Chen Qi naturally denied it. He was only invited by Li Jiahang to appear on the TV show, but as for who he invited to be on the show, he did not mention it at all.

After all, it was not yet confirmed whether Lin Ran would attend.

"Why are you pretending to be a staff member of the program team?" Lin Ran asked.

"Of course I'm interested in your ability to detect treasures." The man said coldly, "I just want to use you to trick Zhu Yawen out, but now it saves trouble."

He took out a pamphlet from his pocket.

It was Lin Ran's pass.

"Are you looking for this?" He waved the pass in his hand expressionlessly.

Lin Ran could tell that he was different from others.

Chen Zhifei and the others only accepted Lin Ran's identity after they saw what he was capable of.

The man in front of him had undoubtedly investigated Lin Ran and knew his level.

It turned out that everything was planned, and he showed up just to invite Zhu Yawen out of the mountain.

But Lin Ran didn't understand that Zhu Yawen's appearance was clearly an invitation from Li Jiahang, so what did it have to do with him.

Even if he does not participate in the show, if Chen He comes forward, he will lose to Li Youwei at most, and it will have no impact on whether Zhu Yawen will appear on the stage.

Seeing that Lin Ran didn't move, he specifically increased the amplitude of the shake and asked, "Do you still want this thing?"

In order to return to the mainland safely, the pass must be foolproof.

Lin Ran replied: "Of course, what are your conditions?"

The other party threatened him with the pass, obviously not for money.

"The Secret Art of Treasure Appraisal. Volume [-]." The man said in a low voice, "You can't understand that book, and there is no use taking it back. Give me the book, return the pass to you, and I will give you a Money, [-] Hong Kong dollars.”

He spoke in a slow, unhurried voice.

As expected, it was for the secret technique. Lin Ran flatly refused: "Impossible. This book was given to me by Master Zhu. Don't even think about taking it away."

"Passed it to you?" the man sneered, "Are you sure it wasn't passed to Chen Xing, but to Lin Ran?"

The other party knew his own details, so Lin Ran replied cautiously: "My name is just a nickname. Master Zhu values ​​​​my strength."

"It's a joke." The man raised his voice, "I arranged Chen Xing's name for you and Zhu Yawen accepted you as his disciple. I was behind the scenes. Now, give me the book, otherwise..."

He took out the lighter and put it under the pass.

Lin Ran was speechless. The thief was right in front of him, how dare he be so arrogant?

He was chatting with the man just now, but he was actually quietly approaching the man.

When he took out the lighter, Lin Ran suddenly accelerated, intending to knock the man to the ground with a sprint.

Thought he was going very fast, he gritted his teeth and rushed over desperately.

As a result, he failed to reach the obstacle. Instead, he staggered and almost fell to the ground.

The alley is not wide. Where did the other party hide?

"You'd better stop playing these little tricks on me." The man's voice came from behind again, with a hint of sullenness in his tone, "Do you think I don't dare to do something to you?"

He put the pass back into his pocket and took out a dagger.

Are all thieves in Hong Kong City so arrogant?

Lin Ran stepped back and kept looking at the ground, looking for sticks, bricks and other items to use for self-defense. The threat of the dagger was too great, and his body would definitely not be able to withstand it.

But if Lin Ran maintained this retreating posture, he would either have to run away or have to fight hard with the opponent.

Judging from the opponent's skill, it was not something Lin Ran could handle.

At the critical moment, many people shouted from behind Lin Ran.

"kill!!"

As the shouts came, a group of people blocked the alley.

Yan Hong appeared in the crowd and patted Lin Ran on the shoulder: "Mr. Chen, an informant told me that you are in danger, so I brought someone to help you."

Informant?

I'm afraid it's someone who is secretly observing me.

True to the speed of the Qilin Club, Yan Hong actually appeared in the alley within 5 minutes.

But now he had no time to chat with Yan Hong, but looked at the man in the alley.

No matter how fast he is, being stuck in a dead end by about twenty people is a common scenario in Hong Kong movies.

Lin Ran didn't want to use his hands and feet, but said: "Now it seems that the situation is very clear. Return the things to me and I will let you go."

Due to emotions and reasons, Lin Ran didn't want this guy to fall into the hands of the Qilin Society. If his true identity was revealed, wouldn't Lin Ran offend a very large organization in Hong Kong City?

Unexpectedly, when the man was surrounded by so many people, he remained calm and said, "I will definitely take back what Zhu Yawen took away from me."

"What did you say?" Yan Hong scolded angrily, "You are slandering Mr. Zhu. You are not very young. What did he take away from you?"

In Yan Hong's mind, Zhu Yawen was a model of morality. Apart from joining the British Royal Treasure Appraisal Group involuntarily, he had never dedicated Chinese cultural relics to the British. Even though the British Governor hinted to him many times, he remained unmoved.

Zhu Yawen is usually gentle and has no airs.

Besides, Qilin is the leader in the treasure appraisal industry, so why does he need to take other people’s things?What a joke!

Zhu Yawen's two daughters have both married ordinary people and no longer care about the affairs of the Qilin Society. I have never heard of them causing trouble outside.

Having been with Zhu Yawen for more than 30 years, he knows very well what kind of person Zhu Yawen is. If there is really something to be taken away from him, there is no way he would not know about it.

"Yan Hong, you know nothing. You are still as naive as you were 20 years ago." The man's expression twisted.

Yan Hong saw that the man in front of him was similar to him in age and actually mentioned 20 years ago, so he concluded that he was talking nonsense.

"Catch him! Take him back and interrogate him properly."

Yan Hong showed the temperament of a gangster. In this era, the port city was short of manpower and would turn a blind eye to private matters between gangs as long as it did not cause too many lives. The same was true for the Qilin Society.

The boys swarmed up and prepared to arrest the man.

But the man took out a smoke bomb from his pocket and threw it on the ground.

In an instant, the alley fell into chaos.

"The road is blocked, don't let anyone leave!" Yan Hong coughed and pulled Lin Ran out of the alley.

They stood at the entrance of the alley, watching the intersection without letting anyone leave.

The smoke gradually dissipated, and the thick smoke blocked people's sight, but they followed Yan Hong's command and no one moved. They all stood in place, shoulder to shoulder, and it was impossible to let anyone slip out.

But a strange scene still occurred.

When the smoke dissipated, there was no one else in the alley, only a mess.

Everyone was stunned, Yan Hong shouted: "Don't move, tell me your name!"
