The Government Assigns A Daughter-In-Law, Which Needs To Be Chosen?

Chapter 149: The Woman's Secret (Thanks for the support, Potato)

"You used to be from the White Lotus Sect, right?"

A calm statement, but it caused a huge uproar in the entire reception hall.

Liu Hong, who had just obtained a valuable treasure and was feeling delighted, had a sudden change in expression upon hearing these words.

Looking at Lin Fan, he instinctively wanted to explain something.

But as the woman at the center of attention, she sighed and showed no change upon hearing these words.

Her expression remained as calm as ever, as if she had already anticipated this scene.

"Master Lin is just joking. How could my wife possibly be from the White Lotus Sect? She has been with me for many years, always quietly taking care of the household and raising our children. You must have mistaken her for someone else."

Liu Hong forced a smile, trying to make his expression appear calmer, but it only made him look suspicious.

Anyone with discerning eyes could see that there was something fishy about his forced explanation.

But it wasn't entirely his fault, because this sudden question was too shocking and had clearly crossed the other party's bottom line.

Lin Fan didn't answer this statement, nor did he argue with the other party. He simply looked calmly at the woman in front of him.

"Sigh~"

The woman sighed again and then nodded with a touch of bitterness. "Master Lin's insight is truly remarkable. I am indeed from the White Lotus Sect. Although I have been expelled from the sect, my roots are indeed in the White Lotus Sect."

"Madam."

Liu Hong opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end, he couldn't say anything. It was clear that he already knew the truth.

However,

It was too late to say anything now, as the person involved had already admitted it.

"Don't worry, since I have revealed this matter instead of taking action, it means that I have no intention of making things difficult for you."

Lin Fan remained calm and did not resort to the violent measures the other party might have expected upon learning her identity.

"You don't intend to take me down?"

The woman's expression remained calm as she looked at Lin Fan and asked.

"Why would I want to take you down?"

Lin Fan directly countered with a smile.

"Don't we have a grudge between us?"

The woman maintained her tone and looked at Lin Fan steadily.

"I do have a grudge with the White Lotus Sect, but this grudge is relative. Not to mention, you have already left the White Lotus Sect."

The woman fell silent upon hearing this.

In fact, she had followed along this time to confront Lin Fan about something.

Because she had already learned that Lin Fan had known about her background when he helped her detoxify.

Otherwise,

He wouldn't have accurately revealed the details of the poison when helping her detoxify.

When she left, she said a sentence that seemed unrelated, but it was actually a test.

Lin Fan's response at the time had already confirmed her guess.

"I was the previous White Lotus Saintess, but because I couldn't see certain facts clearly, I was discarded by a certain entity and made into the carrier of the Holy Poison, to fulfill its final value."

The woman remained silent for a moment before speaking with her head slightly lowered.

Lin Fan was not surprised because he had already seen it when he helped her detoxify. The poison she carried was of the same origin as the poison on Old Daoist Knife's body.

It wasn't difficult to guess this answer given her willingness to carry such a poison, combined with what she said later.

"Why did you willingly carry such a deadly poison?"

Lin Fan wasn't surprised by the former, but he was somewhat puzzled by the latter.

The woman replied with bitterness, "There isn't anything too complicated about it. It's simply because the sect has shown me kindness, and I already have my own child."

"Madam."

Upon hearing these words, Liu Hong's face was instantly filled with tears.

"Understood."

Lin Fan also nodded slightly.

As a mother, there is nothing she wouldn't sacrifice, but when it comes to her own flesh and blood, it is absolutely difficult to let go.

Even in many cases, this would be more important than her own life.

As for why she chose the other party, it was simply because their physique was more suitable.

"No matter what, thank you for giving me a new life. So this time, when I call my husband over, besides saying thank you, I also want to warn you about something. The White Lotus Sect is not as simple as it seems on the surface. The hidden power is beyond anyone's imagination."

The woman's expression, for the first time breaking her usual calmness, became serious.

Lin Fan listened quietly and then smiled, "You mean the mysterious leader hidden in the dark?"

"You already know?"

The woman was somewhat surprised.

Lin Fan nodded slightly, "If you're talking about that person, I do know. They even sent the Blood Spirit Guards to try and take my head not long ago."

"I didn't expect you to have experienced that, but that's only a small part."

The woman was indeed surprised, but quickly regained her composure and once again revealed different information.

"That's only a part?"

Lin Fan's expression became slightly serious. He thought he already fully understood the depth of the White Lotus Sect, and even felt that he could easily control them. However, he didn't expect to encounter different information now.

"It is indeed only a part, not even half."

The woman nodded and said, her calm expression rarely showing seriousness.

"I would like to hear the details."

Lin Fan quickly calmed down and asked about the woman's follow-up.

Seeing that Lin Fan only showed a momentary surprise and quickly regained his composure, the woman couldn't help but take another deep look at him.

She thought that the information she revealed would definitely shock Lin Fan, as compared to the White Lotus Sect on the surface, the information she exposed was truly astonishing.

But she didn't expect that Lin Fan was only momentarily surprised and quickly regained his composure, as if he had a great reserve that couldn't be shaken.

Or rather,

He didn't even take it seriously.

"Aren't you surprised?"

The woman couldn't help but ask.

Lin Fan honestly nodded, "There is definitely some surprise, after all, the White Lotus Sect seems so simple on the surface, but the water is so deep. But it's only a little surprise. After all, no matter how deep their water is, it can't be deeper than mine."

When he said the latter part of his words, Lin Fan said it with a smile.

The woman originally wanted to use this information to shock her benefactor and also wanted her benefactor to realize the weight of the gift she gave, in order to repay her.

But she didn't expect to hear such words.

No matter how deep the water is.

It can't be deeper than mine.

What kind of confidence is this?

"It seems that everyone has greatly underestimated you. I can already sense that the great plan that the White Lotus Sect has been planning for many years, and even the calculations of the mysterious leader, will ultimately be destroyed by this young man."

The woman's gaze gradually changed. There was a hint of sadness in her eyes when she looked at Lin Fan, but more than that, there was an indescribable sense of relief.

Obviously, she harbored hatred in her heart towards the former sect.

When her words reached this point, she naturally had no more reservations and began to reveal the true situation of the White Lotus Sect.

"The White Lotus Sect has a long history, but it truly reached its peak not because of the current generation's saintess, as many people say. The real reason that the White Lotus Sect reached its glorious peak was because one day, a masked figure found the main altar of the White Lotus Sect."

Thank you for the 15,000 reward from Potato, and also thank you for the 1,500 reward from A Fu. I would like to thank everyone for their support, but I still need to continue writing, so I won't individually thank everyone. Next time, when I have time, I will thank everyone together.
