"Old man, what nonsense are you spouting!"
Bai Xiaoqing's face turned ashen. He never expected the Bai family head to say such a thing, especially since he had only met Lu Fan twice.
More importantly, Lu Fan had asked so casually, and she would lose face.
"This young brother has an imposing aura, and more importantly, he has a good character!"
The Bai family head stated, "Now that you've reached marriageable age, wouldn't it be better to have a good match with this young brother!"
"Cough, cough..."
Lu Fan said with slight embarrassment, "Isn't this matter too abrupt? I'm not prepared, and as I said earlier, I already have a wife!" Sudancn.com
"That's not important. You also said that your wife is no longer alive."
The Bai family head said directly, "My Bai family doesn't mind such things. This young brother has excellent character. If he can become my son-in-law, he can also inherit my Bai family's fortune!"
The burly man sitting aside gasped. This was like a pie falling from the sky. If anyone in Bai Shui City heard of such a good thing, they would have rushed out long ago.
No one within a hundred miles didn't know the Bai family. They were incredibly wealthy. Lu Fan didn't know what stroke of luck he had to be so highly regarded by the Bai family head.
"I regret to decline!"
Lu Fan said directly, "I have other paths to walk, and I'm afraid I will disappoint the Bai family head!"
The Bai family head was slightly stunned. He hadn't expected Lu Fan to resist such temptation and refuse him outright.
"Are you a fool?"
The burly man asked inexplicably, "Don't you know the foundation of the Bai family? How can you look down on it like this!"
"I'm not looking down on it!"
Lu Fan stated, "As the saying goes, everyone has their own aspirations. My aspirations are not here!"
"Well said!"
Bai Xiaoqing nodded, "Indeed, he has the spirit of a hero. He will surely achieve great things in the future!"
"Xiaoqing!"
The Bai family head frowned, "This is your lifelong matter. If you can marry this young brother, you won't have to marry Lin Qingbei. Otherwise, you might just have to marry him!"
Bai Xiaoqing frowned. He had a marriage contract with the Lin family, but Lin Qingbei was always dissolute, and she couldn't stand him.
"Old man, this is the marriage contract you made. It has nothing to do with me!"
Bai Xiaoqing said directly, "If you want to marry, go ahead and marry him."
"Don't forget, the Lin family's influence is not weaker than the Bai family's."
The Bai family head stated, "I know you don't like Lin Qingbei, which is why I'm pushing for this."
"If the Lin family comes to demand an explanation, even if I marry him, what can change?" Bai Xiaoqing said with a wry smile. "Moreover, it will implicate him!"
"This young brother is not as simple as he appears!"
The Bai family head shook his head and looked at Lu Fan, "If I'm not mistaken, sir is a Spirit Master!"
The burly man was slightly startled, and Bai Xiaoqing froze in place.
They knew very well what kind of existence a Spirit Master was. After reaching the ninth stage of Spirit Master, they could touch the threshold of becoming a Spirit Master.
But they knew very clearly that there were countless experts who had reached the ninth stage of Spirit Master, but Spirit Masters were quite rare. The chance of successfully breaking through from the ninth stage of Spirit Master to become a Spirit Master was only one percent.
"The Bai family head truly has discerning eyes!"
Lu Fan nodded slightly, "I am indeed a Spirit Master!"
"To become a Spirit Master at such a young age, your future is bound to be limitless."
The burly man was inwardly shocked. He finally understood why the Bai family head was so flattering to Lu Fan, even so polite, and wanted to marry Bai Xiaoqing to him. It turned out all of this was within his expectations.
"To reach such a height at such a young age, I truly feel unworthy!" Bai Xiaoqing couldn't help but smile wryly.
"There is no such thing as worthy or unworthy!"
Lu Fan smiled and said, "However, I already have someone in my heart, and I'm afraid I will disappoint you all!"
"It seems I was too hasty!"
The Bai family head said with a wry smile, "I lost my composure for a moment and made a fool of myself in front of you, young brother."
"I can understand the Bai family head's feelings. Family disputes are no small matter."
Lu Fan smiled and said, "However, Miss Bai has been kind to me. If the Bai family is in trouble, I cannot stand by and do nothing!"
"What does sir mean?"
The Bai family head was surprised and even a little pleased.
"Miss Bai and I will have a fake marriage. After this period of trouble passes, I will leave Bai Shui City!"
Lu Fan said directly, "This way, the Lin family won't be able to cause trouble. Even if the Lin family comes to cause trouble, with me here, the Bai family should be fine!"
"Sir is righteous!"
The Bai family head was overjoyed and flattered Lu Fan even more.
"Old Hu, quickly prepare a superior room!"
The Bai family head instructed, "We must not neglect Mr. Lu!"
The burly man quickly nodded. Lu Fan was a Spirit Master, so how could he dare to be negligent.
After preparing the room, the burly man came to Bai Xiaoqing's side, "Miss, everything is ready. But will this room be for two people or one?"
"Of course, one person!"
Bai Xiaoqing frowned, "Old Hu, what are you thinking about all day!"
The burly man smiled awkwardly, "I was just saying casually. Miss, why are you so nervous? This is not like your usual self!"
Bai Xiaoqing didn't speak. Her face was ashen. Lu Fan was right there, so she couldn't speak freely.
After leaving the hall, Lu Fan returned to his room. Bai Xiaoqing was tidying the bedding for him, like a young lady.
"I can do it myself!" Lu Fan smiled.
"How can that be? You're staying to help my Bai family, so it's only natural for me to make your bed!" Bai Xiaoqing said directly.
Lu Fan was a little unaccustomed to it, but since Bai Xiaoqing had said so, he couldn't say much.
"By the way, do you have anything else to do?" Bai Xiaoqing asked. "My Bai family has some status in Bai Shui City. If you need any help, you can let me know."
"There is indeed something!"
Lu Fan nodded and said, "I want to find someone. This person is named Long Yi, or Shen Yayun, or Ye Shisan!"
"So many people? Are they your friends?" Bai Xiaoqing asked in surprise. "But don't worry, I'll send people to inquire. As long as they are in Bai Shui City, we'll know where they are!"
"Thank you very much then," Lu Fan cupped his fists.
"What is there to thank? It's just a small matter!"
Bai Xiaoqing waved her hand, "You're willing to stay for my Bai family, so I should be thanking you. After all, dealing with the Lin family is not easy."
"It's nothing!"
Lu Fan smiled slightly, "Since I dare to stay, I naturally don't fear them!"
Bai Xiaoqing nodded slightly and then left Lu Fan's room.
"Actually, I think he's a good person!"
Lin Ke's voice sounded, "And she's the eldest daughter of the Bai family. The Bai family has quite a few businesses!"
"Xiao Ke, you're mocking me again!" Lu Fan gave her a sideways glance.
