Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 874 - 873

Lin Fan walked out of the gymnasium, ready to retrieve his electric bike.

Before entering the gym, he encountered a couple. The man was a muscular fellow, and the woman wore a short skirt, looking somewhat provocative. The short-skirted woman thought Lin Fan was handsome and flirted with him, but Lin Fan ignored her, which made her unhappy, and she turned around to falsely accuse Lin Fan of harassing her.

The muscular man, in order to protect his girlfriend, wanted to fight Lin Fan and agreed to meet him after leaving the gym to settle it.

Lin Fan didn't take such a trivial matter to heart. Only when he saw them did he remember. He originally thought they would feel the same way, but to his surprise, they were indeed waiting for him.

Lin Fan walked over, smiling, "Alright, I promised to fight you. You can make your move now..."

However, Lin Fan hadn't finished speaking yet.

There were two thuds in front of him.

The muscular man and the short-skirted woman actually both knelt down together. Huh? Something's not right. Why do they both look terrified? This is completely different from their previous arrogant demeanor.

This couple was indeed quite arrogant, especially the short-skirted woman. Even though it was her fault, she refused to apologize properly. The muscular man was the same, blindly protecting his girlfriend and relying on his strength to use his fists to teach Lin Fan a lesson.

What happened? Why did they suddenly become so cowardly?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, I was wrong," said the short-skirted woman.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin. If we had known it was you earlier, I wouldn't have dared to challenge you even if I had ten guts," the muscular man also said.

Lin Fan acknowledged with an "Oh": "You know who I am?"

The muscular man replied, "Of course, we just saw you in the gymnasium. You're the richest man in Yun City, the CEO of the Mortal Group."

Lin Fan found it a bit funny. It seems the status of being the richest person in Yun City is quite useful. Once they knew he was the richest man in Yun City, they became respectful and even fearful. It seems like he might as well print "I am the richest man in Yun City" on his clothes to make some small-minded individuals retreat on their own.

Of course, this was just a joke.

The fear people have towards Lin Fan is more due to his mysterious background. Rumor has it that the mysterious tycoon Mr. Lin has a powerful background and extraordinary means. Lin Fan's image is gradually becoming widely known, and who wouldn't show some respect when meeting him?

Upon realizing they had offended Lin Fan, the couple was almost scared out of their wits. So they waited here early, ready to offer their apologies to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan chuckled, "Are you apologizing to me because I am Lin Fan, or because you truly think you were wrong?"

These two people, there's really no need to act like they're submitting to authority.

"This..." The muscular man blushed, speechless for a moment.

It seemed like he genuinely didn't think he was wrong, it was just because the other party was Lin Fan, and he didn't dare to provoke him.

The short-skirted woman quickly said, "No, it was indeed my fault. I shouldn't have flirted with Mr. Lin. Who am I kidding? Mr. Lin must be surrounded by beautiful women, how could he ever notice me? I realize now that I was momentarily confused. Feeling my pride hurt by Mr. Lin, I falsely accused him of harassing me with his eyes."

"What? Did you really falsely accuse Mr. Lin?" The muscular man looked at the short-skirted woman in surprise.

At this moment, a security guard came over from the side.

It was the same guard who dealt with their conflict earlier.

The security guard approached Lin Fan, respectfully saying, "Mr. Lin, after receiving your feedback, I immediately went to check the surveillance. Just as you said, it was this woman who flirted with you, and you ignored her. There was no situation of you harassing her with your eyes."

The security guard was also very respectful to Lin Fan. In fact, he originally wasn't going to deal with it anymore, but after seeing Lin Fan step onto the ring, he realized that the young man outside earlier is actually the richest man in Yun City!

Cold sweat broke out on him, and he quickly checked the surveillance. Then, after the event ended, he waited nearby, and upon seeing Lin Fan, he hurried over.

The security guard added, "If anyone doesn't believe, they can follow me to check the surveillance footage."

This remark was directed to the muscular man.

Given what the guard said, there was no way the muscular man wouldn't believe it.

The truth was out: it was his girlfriend who flirted with Lin Fan and instead blamed Lin Fan for harassing her!

Smack!

The muscular man slapped the short-skirted woman across the face: "You wretched girl, how dare you falsely accuse Mr. Lin, and make me misunderstand him. I'll kill you!"

After disciplining his girlfriend, the muscular man hurriedly begged Lin Fan for forgiveness, "Mr. Lin, it's all her fault, making me misunderstand you. Mr. Lin, please forgive me?"

Lin Fan found it a bit speechless. These people reminded him of a Chekhovian satirical novel...

"Since the misunderstanding has been cleared and you've apologized, I won't dwell on it anymore, let's leave it at that." Lin Fan said.

He patted the security guard's shoulder and said, "Thank you, security brother, for helping to clear things up."

The security guard was immediately flattered, standing bolt upright: "Thank you for your praise, Mr. Lin. It was my duty!"

Having helped Mr. Lin deal with the troublemakers and being praised by him, the guard reckoned this was something he could boast about for three years.

Though Lin Fan said he wouldn't hold a grudge, the muscular man and the short-skirted woman were still fearful and apprehensive. Who knew if Lin Fan verbally said he wouldn't hold a grudge, yet in reality, still wouldn't spare them?

With Lin Fan's capabilities, finding out their identities and making things difficult for them would be incredibly easy. For instance, causing them to lose their jobs, setting a trap for them to fall into, getting them into prison... and so on.

In any case, given Lin Fan's status, destroying them would be a piece of cake.

With this concern, the couple lived in a state of constant anxiety for a long time afterward, on edge, alert at every turn, afraid of suddenly encountering some calamity or misfortune. When faced with minor difficulties in both life and work, they would stressfully wonder if it was Lin Fan coming to settle accounts with them...

Until a year and a half later, when they realized Lin Fan hadn't caused them any trouble, they finally began to feel at ease, and the immense psychological burden started to fade away.

If Lin Fan knew about this, he would probably be amused.

He really wasn't intentionally trying to scare them.

As for Lin Fan, he hopped on his little electric bike, left the gymnasium, and casually dialed Wei Yue'er's phone number.

The challenge was over, it was time to follow up on the land auction.

But his call didn't go through, no one answered on the other end. Wei Yue'er was probably busy.

Lin Fan then called Zhao Jiayi: "Jiayi, how's the land auction going now?"

Zhao Jiayi quickly replied, "It's already reached the bidding stage. We're competing with Wangu Group. The starting price was 3 billion, and each bid cannot be less than 1 million. Now both sides are in a standoff, and the price of the land has already been pushed to 5 billion..."

Zhao Jiayi briefly explained the situation.

Lin Fan smiled slightly: "Only 5 billion? With each bid only increasing by 1 million, this could go on forever."

Zhao Jiayi said, "Chairman, the TV station is broadcasting it live, would you like to watch it?"

Lin Fan said, "Hmm, but I have a better idea. I'll go see it in person. Drive my Rolls-Royce over to pick me up."

Zhao Jiayi said, "Okay, Chairman!"

After hanging up, Lin Fan turned on the TV broadcast and sure enough, Wei Yue'er and Wei Jiansheng were taking turns bidding on the Lijiang Land.

Watching this scene, Lin Fan revealed a slightly complex smile.
