Chapter 4757: I Forgive You

Xiao Li had a very loud reputation in the Nether Ghost Mansion. Many of these people had interacted with Xiao Li, and even those who hadn't had seen him a few times before.

Xiao Fan knew his son's personality best; he was very cold towards outsiders. Otherwise, Xiao Li wouldn't still be unmarried to this day.

"Hehe… Then thank you, everyone." Xiao Fan smiled, looking at the experts of the Ghost Mansion around him.

"Haha… Little Brother Xiao Xuan, you're too polite! It's only right! We're all our own people."

"Exactly, why be so polite?"

"It's only right, Little Brother Xiao Xuan!"

"…"

Everyone was chatting and laughing. Gu Qinglian was a bit curious why Xiao Xuan was asking about Xiao Li, and why he was so attentive about it.

Both parties had the surname Xiao, and both were such Prodigies… In an instant, Gu Qinglian had a bold guess in her heart, but she couldn't confirm it.

Soon, Xiao Fan and Gu Qinglian returned. These people had promised Xiao Fan that they would find a way later to see if they could let him meet Xiao Li.

If it were any other time, seeing Xiao Li wouldn't be a problem, but the difficulty was that Xiao Li was currently in seclusion and would not see anyone…

It was said that Sha Mushi had gone to see Xiao Li a while ago and was also given the cold shoulder… Because of this, it had even caused some jokes within the Ghost Mansion.

They said it was Sha Mushi professing her love, only to be ruthlessly rejected by Xiao Li!

Xiao Fan just listened to this for amusement and didn't take it seriously at all.

Soon, Xiao Fan and Gu Qinglian returned to the small courtyard…

Xiao Fan went straight to his room. When Luan Yan saw Gu Qinglian return, he immediately went to find her.

"What is it?" Gu Qinglian asked curiously.

"Um… did you win again today?!" Luan Yan asked curiously.

"We won, and quite a lot too, even more than yesterday." Gu Qinglian smiled from ear to ear.

Coming to the Nether Ghost Mansion, she hadn't done anything, yet she had made a fortune first.

In this case, even if she failed to be selected later and didn't obtain the qualification to enter the Ancient Burial Holy Land, Gu Qinglian felt that her trip had been worthwhile…

"How much did you win?!" Luan Yan was shocked.

Gu Qinglian did a simple calculation and told Luan Yan a conservative number, which almost scared him into fainting.

"It's actually… this much?!" Luan Yan's jaw dropped.

"It's alright. Do you want to come along too?" Gu Qinglian said with a smile.

"This… I…" Luan Yan hesitated. He had previously had a conflict with Xiao Fan; otherwise, he definitely wouldn't have missed such an opportunity to make a fortune.

"Xiao Xuan is a good person. If you talk to him properly, he should agree," Gu Qinglian smiled.

"O…okay." Luan Yan hesitated for a moment, nodded, and said with a serious expression, "If he is willing, then he is willing! If he is not willing, I will not force it! Mere resources! I don't care about them! After all, I, Luan Yan, have dignity!"

Hearing Luan Yan's righteous and stern manner, Gu Qinglian was stunned for a moment.

"Are… are you serious?!"

"Of course." Luan Yan nodded heavily.

"Fine, as long as you are serious…" Gu Qinglian smiled and turned to leave Luan Yan's room.

Xiao Fan actually heard the conversation between Luan Yan and Gu Qinglian very clearly.

When they were on the flying boat, Xiao Fan had done something to Gu Qinglian and Luan Yan, allowing him to eavesdrop on any of their conversations.

If Luan Yan insisted on following, Xiao Fan didn't really mind. Actually, having one more person wasn't bad; if something happened later, he could shift the blame onto Luan Yan.

The next day.

Early in the morning, Xiao Fan was about to take Gu Qinglian and leave. Over the next few days, Xiao Fan planned to make a good fortune, and it would be even better if he could take this opportunity to see Xiao Li.

"Wait… Big Brother Xiao Xuan!"

At this moment, Luan Yan suddenly appeared, called out to stop Xiao Fan, and ran in front of Xiao Fan and Gu Qinglian.

"Oh? What is it?" Xiao Fan crossed his arms and said indifferently.

"I… Big Brother Xiao! The previous matter was my fault!"

"Thump."

Luan Yan knelt down on both knees directly in front of Xiao Fan.

Xiao Fan: "…"

Gu Qinglian: "…"

Luan Yan's action left Xiao Fan stunned on the spot, looking at Luan Yan in disbelief.

"What… what are you doing?!"

"Big Brother Xiao Xuan, I was wrong! I hope you can forgive me! Forgive this ignorant younger brother of yours…" Luan Yan looked at Xiao Fan with a pleading gaze.

"Uh… I didn't take it to heart, because you don't really count for anything, really!" Xiao Fan was stunned for a moment.

Hearing Xiao Fan's words, to be honest, Luan Yan felt as if a knife had been stabbed into his heart.

But Luan Yan didn't show it, and instead said seriously, "Big Brother Xiao Xuan! Are you willing to forgive me?!"

"Fine, I forgive you…"

"Great!"

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

Luan Yan began to kowtow to Xiao Xuan, and it was quite loud.

Xiao Fan's face twitched, and Gu Qinglian, who was beside him, was even more so, her jaw almost dropping to the ground in shock.

Didn't Luan Yan say yesterday that he had dignity?!
