Chapter 221: Chapter 221

After listening to the recording, Anna was completely stunned, collapsing weakly onto the chair, her hands falling powerlessly, the knife in her hand dropping to the floor.

The truth hit her with such force that it was hard for her to recover immediately.

The foster father she trusted and revered had deceived her about the matter she cared about the most!

How could she possibly accept this!

Anything else could be forgiven, but this was about her father. For the past 15 years, the most important thing in her life was searching for her father.

If someone understands her longing, how could they use this matter to deceive and exploit her!

But that’s exactly what happened!

Her respected foster father deceived her and used her search for her father to control her!

Over the years, because of gratitude to Feng Wanshan, she did whatever he asked without hesitation, like the undercover mission at Yunding Manor. With just one call from Feng Wanshan, she dropped her previous work and returned to Yun City.

Never expected, it was all fake!

Following her shock, Anna was consumed by boundless anger.

Why did Feng Wanshan do this?

Was it just to control her, making her willingly work for him?

Lin Fan said, "The disappearance of your father back then was quite odd. Due to the lack of surveillance at that time, it’s very difficult to find clues. I now suspect that Feng Wanshan might know something, that’s why he deceived you."

Anna’s expression turned grim.

Though Lin Fan didn’t say it directly, the implication was clear.

He suspects that An Jincheng’s disappearance is related to Feng Wanshan!

This speculation is truly shocking.

Anna became somewhat emotional, took out her phone, and intended to call Feng Wanshan. She wanted to ask him personally.

Lin Fan said, "If you ask him now, it will ruin our plans. If he really is involved in your father’s disappearance, he certainly won’t admit it. After all, he should be confident we have no evidence, and even if there is evidence, he will destroy it."

Anna’s hand already opened the contact list, but Lin Fan’s words made her hand freeze.

Lin Fan made a lot of sense; they couldn’t alert the snake!

Lin Fan said, "If you want to find your father, you need to continue gaining Feng Wanshan’s trust, return to his side and investigate secretly."

Anna nodded, agreeing with Lin Fan’s words.

Lin Fan said, "Besides, I’ll help you too. Actually, concerning your father’s disappearance, I have some clues already and I’m following up. It’s likely we might find something."

Anna’s eyes lit up, "What clue?"

Lin Fan said, "I looked over your father’s case file at the police and discovered that one of his colleagues might be hiding something. This is the only clue I found in the case files and might be the key to solving the case."

Anna frowned, "Who is my father’s colleague?"

Lin Fan smiled, "I won’t tell you for now, but if I make progress, I’ll let you know. It depends on whether you’re willing to cooperate with me."

Anna gritted her teeth, "What do you want to do?"

Lin Fan said, "I want you to leave Yunding Manor, return to Feng Wanshan’s side, and be my insider."

"What?" Anna was shocked.

She was originally sent by Feng Wanshan as a spy beside Lin Fan, but now it’s reversed; she has to be a spy beside Feng Wanshan!

This turn of events is truly absurd.

However, this all seems reasonable. Now that she knows Feng Wanshan deceived her, she needs to seek the truth, and Lin Fan can help her!

She has no other choice but to cooperate with Lin Fan.

Anna said, "What do you want me to do?"

Lin Fan said, "Isn’t Feng Wanshan forcing you to investigate my background? Then let’s play along, and you’ll deliver a message for me to him."

Then, Lin Fan instructed Anna accordingly.

After listening, Anna said, "Alright, I got it."

Lin Fan smiled, "There’s one more thing. Tomorrow, I plan to cause some trouble for Feng Wanshan. Do you have any suggestions?"

Anna thought for a moment, then told Lin Fan something.

Lin Fan pondered, "Interesting..."

Anna looked at Lin Fan, with a trace of guilt in her eyes, "I’m sorry, I was compelled by Feng Wanshan before, and that’s why I resorted to such means tonight. I’ll give you the antidote now."

They drank wine together, but she had taken the antidote in advance, so she was fine.

Lin Fan had no antidote, so he fell for it.

Lin Fan chuckled, "No need, I’ve already recovered my mobility."

Anna disbelievingly said, "Impossible, if you took my Soft Bone Powder, you couldn’t regain strength so quickly."

But suddenly Lin Fan sat up straight and leisurely picked up the chopsticks that fell on the table, taking a piece of meat.

"I’m really fine now; just haven’t eaten yet, feeling a bit hungry. Do you want to finish this meal with me before leaving?" Lin Fan smiled.

Anna was stunned, "How, how could this be?"

Oh my! Lin Fan actually regained his mobility!

She naturally didn’t know, ever since Lin Fan took the Strengthening Blood Serum Capsules, a mysterious power emerged in his body that initially succumbed to her Soft Bone Powder, but subsequently, as they talked, Lin Fan’s internal power moved, completely eliminating the powder’s effects.

So Anna’s earlier threat to cut Lin Fan’s femoral artery was never going to succeed!

Thinking of this, Anna couldn’t help but feel a bit scared; Lin Fan was simply as strong as a monster!

Anyways, since she started practicing martial arts, she had never seen someone as formidable as Lin Fan.

Of course, Lin Fan wouldn’t explain to her that he took the Strengthening Capsules; he simply said, "Maybe it’s my physique issue, but anyhow, I’m fine quickly."

Anna broke out in a cold sweat; she originally thought her plan succeeded, making Lin Fan fall, only to find out that Lin Fan had everything set clearly!

She was impressed by Lin Fan.

Anna left Yunding Manor overnight and called Feng Wanshan: "I’ve got the answer you wanted, but I can’t stay at Yunding Manor anymore; I’m coming to find you now."

Feng Wanshan’s villa.

Feng Wanshan received Anna in his study late at night.

"Tell me," Feng Wanshan said.

Anna said, "I subdued Lin Fan and forced him to tell the truth..."

Early morning, before the market opened, an explosive news spread in the business community.

Lin Fan’s background was revealed!

Lin Fan turns out to not be a member of the Kyoto Lin Family but just a farmer’s son, inheriting his uncle Lin Beixuan’s billion-dollar estate, and Lin Beixuan left him the property because he had cancer and was dying without heirs.

After gaining Lin Beixuan’s estate, Lin Fan recklessly spent money, even bought Celestial Aviation and Zhou Tian Mansion, having squandered all the assets!

The news shocked the business world.

If the news is true, Celestial Aviation’s stock price will surely plummet, ushering in a disastrous scene once the market opens.

Mortal Group rapidly issued a statement refuting the rumors, clarifying that the news was purely fabricated.

Lin Beixuan isn’t dead; he is the mysterious tycoon Lin Mr. Lin who recently spent billions, purchasing Yunding Manor and Chiba Island!

Mr. Lin not only isn’t dead, but he plans to come to Yun City soon, carrying billions to develop Chiba Island, and Lin Fan is indeed the nephew of Lin Beixuan Mr. Lin.

Everything Lin Fan did was upon Lin Beixuan’s instruction, whose goal is to build a trillion-dollar group in Yun City!

This refutation was like thunder from the clear sky.

The revelation of the mysterious tycoon Mr. Lin in Yun City was astonishing!

At 9:30 am, the market opened.

Celestial Aviation stock prices soared again!

At the same time, at Yunding Manor, Lin Fan sat in the living room, looking at the information Zhang Dafu sent over about Shengshi Group, with a cold smile.

A bomb aimed at Shengshi Group was poised to explode.
