Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God Chapter 1415 - 1414
Previously on Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God...
Lin Fan told Li Zixia that it was because Ruofan Capital was acquiring Golden Jade Group, hence he agreed to go to the United Kingdom to find Li Zixia. However, this was not the real reason. For the current Mortal Group, this company facing bankruptcy was not that important.
Lin Fan concealed his true reason for coming to the United Kingdom because it was a system task, which naturally couldn’t be disclosed.
The system issued a task that day, requiring Lin Fan to come to the United Kingdom to save Li Zixia. Lin Fan didn’t know the purpose, but since it was a system task, he had no choice but to complete it.
Now, Lin Fan had successfully rescued Li Zixia, although there were still some troubles to deal with afterwards, the task had been completed.
The system also sent a notification indicating that the task was completed. As usual, completing a system task entitled one to special rewards.
This time, however, the system did not immediately distribute the special reward.
"Special reward distribution pending!"
Lin Fan was stunned for a moment; what does pending mean?
Could it be that the system hasn’t decided what reward to give him?
Lin Fan helplessly shook his head, but right now he wasn’t lacking anything. If the system’s special reward was another sum of money, Lin Fan would be even more helpless. He didn’t lack money; if anyone received 5 million yuan every day for several consecutive months, they would become numb to money.
Fine then, he’ll just wait and see what special reward the system will give him.
"Ding!"
At this moment, the system rang again.
"System task: Acquire Golden Jade Group."
"Task Level: Important."
"Task Progress: 0/100"
Lin Fan frowned; the system didn’t give a reward, yet added another task. What is the goal here?
Strictly speaking, Golden Jade Group wasn’t yet in Lin Fan’s pocket. Feng Ruolan merely had intentions to acquire it but hadn’t taken any actual steps. For Lin Fan, this company was optional.
But once the system issued a task, the nature changed. To complete the task, he had to buy this company.
Lin Fan and Li Zixia chatted as they returned to the shore, abandoning the boat as they landed.
It was already early morning, and the entire city of Barcelona had quieted down, with flights suspended at the airport.
"Looks like we’ll be spending the night in the city; we’ll head back to London in the morning," Lin Fan said to Li Zixia.
Li Zixia nodded, "I’m a bit hungry."
Lin Fan replied, "Let’s head back to the city, find a place to eat something, then rent a room."
Unable to get a cab at the pier, the two had no choice but to walk back to the city.
"By the way, Mr. Lin, I haven’t asked you yet, how did you know Tianyu? You said those people chasing us have been dealt with, what do you mean?" Li Zixia asked.
Lin Fan replied, "It’s a long story, and since we have a way to go, I’ll slowly explain it to you..."
Lin Fan then told Li Zixia about Ye Tianyu’s prison break.
Ye Tianyu went into hiding in prison to avoid being hunted by Yun Sect and through friends, sought out Tang Sect. To gain Tang Sect’s protection, Ye Tianyu agreed to pay Tang Sect 1 billion yuan.
"Where did he get so much money?" Li Zixia asked in surprise.
Lin Fan said, "This money belonged to your father. Before he died, your father gave Ye Tianyu a secret account, so technically, this money belongs to you."
Li Zixia was stunned; her father Li Huashan had left her 1 billion yuan?
Ye Tianyu had recklessly used this 1 billion yuan to buy his own safety?
Lin Fan explained, "Ye Tianyu told me that the 1 billion yuan was not just for him but also for you. After entering Tang Sect, his next step was to come to pick you up."
Li Zixia was speechless for a moment, not because she blamed Ye Tianyu, but she wondered if she would have to spend her life hiding; from the United Kingdom to Tang Sect, what was the difference for her? She couldn’t spend her life in seclusion on a mountain, could she?
"What happened next?" Li Zixia asked.
Lin Fan replied, "Tang Sect agreed with Ye Tianyu, and Ye Tianyu escaped from prison. However, he didn’t expect Yun Sect to also track him down at this time, and Yun Sect knew he had 1 billion yuan, trying to snatch the 1 billion yuan from him, leading to a contest between both sides..."
Lin Fan told Li Zixia what happened; he had no reason to hide it from her.
The final result was that Tang Sect was defeated by Lin Fan, Yun Sect was subdued by him, and Ye Tianyu was taken back to prison by the police.
"As for that 1 billion yuan, it’s now in my hands, and I’m planning to return it to you," Lin Fan said with a slight smile.
By this time, Li Zixia understood; she had regained her freedom and could return to her home country.
All of this was thanks to Lin Fan!
Now, Lin Fan was also going to give her 1 billion yuan, even though it was originally left to her by her father Li Huashan. Without Lin Fan, she would never have gotten it back; it would either have fallen into Tang Sect’s hands or been seized by Yun Sect.
It was Lin Fan who helped her get it back!
"Mr. Lin, thank you. We’ve never even met, yet you’ve done so much for me," Li Zixia said, her cheeks slightly flushed.
After hearing the story, Li Zixia realized if Lin Fan wanted to embezzle the 1 billion yuan, it would seem he could easily do so. Tang Sect fled, Yun Sect surrendered, Ye Tianyu was in prison, and the police were unaware of the 1 billion yuan. Who could stop Lin Fan?
But Lin Fan didn’t do that.
Lin Fan smiled, "I got involved in Ye Tianyu’s affairs mainly to assist the police in their investigation. This money is yours, and it rightfully should be returned to you. Indeed, 1 billion yuan is a huge sum, and it’s hard for anyone not to be tempted, but fortunately, I’m not lacking this money."
What? Not lacking this money?
Li Zixia was astonished.
Lin Fan spoke of 1 billion yuan as if it were merely 10 yuan. Good heavens, she knew Lin Fan was a businessman, but how wealthy was he to speak so casually about 1 billion yuan?
Li Zixia expressed her gratitude, "I still want to thank you. Without you, I might already be dead, and I couldn’t possibly reclaim my father’s inheritance. You’re my benefactor."
Lin Fan said, "Miss Li, honestly, I came to the United Kingdom to find you with some selfish intent."
Li Zixia responded, "Mr. Lin is referring to acquiring Golden Jade Group?"
Indeed, her intelligence was as sharp as ever; she instantly grasped his meaning.
Lin Fan replied, "Exactly, I know with Miss Li’s intelligence and skills, combined with acquiring 1 billion yuan, you could revive Golden Jade Group on your own. However, I still hope Miss Li will consider merging Golden Jade Group into my group and joining me in conquering the world."
Li Zixia had never had the intention to sell the company. It was her father’s hard work, and she was auctioning technology to raise funds to save the company, not to sell it.
But Lin Fan was her savior; she couldn’t ignore his request.
Lin Fan didn’t pressure her, saying, "You don’t have to decide now. Take your time to consider carefully before responding to me. I suspect we won’t be able to return to our home country just yet."
Li Zixia asked, "Are we going to find those who kidnapped me?"
Lin Fan replied, "It’s not us seeking them; they will definitely come to find us. We need to be prepared to face them."
Lin Fan was right. As they returned to the city, on the lonely, drifting yacht at sea, the ringtone of a phone in the pocket of an Eastern European man in a suit rang out.
The deaths of the Earth Wolf Gang members would soon be known to their comrades.
