Just after coming down the mountain, the beautiful CEO took me to register

Chapter 499 Willing to Take Risks for the Sake of Benefits

Lin Fan smiled and thought to himself that this girl was indeed very confident.

"You are indeed charming. Otherwise, why would I lend you money? I lend you money because I think you won't be able to pay it back, and I will find other ways to pay it back when the time comes. In short, I am attracted to you."

"OK."

Qin Ruxue nodded and replied, "You saved me, and I'm willing to repay you."

She paused and added, "As long as Zhao Ziqing agrees, I have no objection. How about I go and discuss it with her?"

"That's boring." Lin Fan shook his head slightly.

"Why is it boring? I don't want to be the boss. As long as she agrees, it's fine." Qin Ruxue felt that she had grasped Lin Fan's thoughts and responded with a smile.

"Okay, remember what you said."

Lin Fan suddenly said seriously, "When the time comes, don't forget to dress yourself up beautifully and come here."

Qin Ruxue looked at Lin Fan's serious expression and her heart began to beat fast.

She knew that outstanding men were always surrounded by suitors, but Zhao Ziqing was equally outstanding. Could she accept Lin Fan having other women? Even if she could accept it, what would the Zhao family think?

"It's a secret."

Lin Fan smiled but said nothing. In fact, he already had nine engagements, including one with Zhao Ziqing's good friend Wang Chudong.

Sooner or later, Zhao Ziqing would find out about this, and given their friendship, she would most likely accept Wang Chudong. Once that happened, everything else would fall into place.

"Humph, I've already considered Zhao Ziqing my legal wife. Do I need her approval to have more wives?"

Lin Fan muttered to himself that he always had a special obsession with a man's first time.

Seeing this, Qin Ruxue quickly tried to make amends: "If I said I was joking just now, would you be angry?"

"Of course I'm angry."

Lin Fan sneered, "Are we familiar with each other? There's no point in joking around!"

Qin Ruxue stopped talking, tidied her hair, and tried to hide her inner uneasiness.

She had a good impression of Lin Fan, but she understood that in a large family, marriage was not something she could decide on her own.

To change the subject, Lin Fan pointed at the yachts in the distance and asked, "Are those ships all heading to the high seas? The same destination as ours?"

"Yes, this is a grand event in the antique world."

Qin Ruoxue breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "As I said before, there's no information about this gathering on the surface, but it holds a very high status within the circle, even more respected than the three major events!"

Lin Fan's eyes suddenly lit up. Qin Ruxue's words aroused his strong interest.

"With so many treasures floating on the high seas, wouldn't it be possible to become rich overnight if we could snatch them?" Lin Fan said casually, but there was an unusual seriousness in his tone.

Qin Ruxue was stunned for a moment. She looked at him in disbelief. "Are you serious? This is not something most people would think."

Lin Fan frowned. "It's true that the law is less binding on the high seas, but don't those international criminals, pirates, or mercenaries have any thoughts?"

"Don't forget, behind this event stand several of the world's top super families."

Qin Ruxue reminded, "Since they dare to hold this event on the high seas, they must have their reasons. Over the years, nothing like this has ever happened here."

"The name of a super family may be a deterrent to ordinary people, but it may not be effective against those desperate criminals."

Lin Fan chuckled. "Besides, the economy is tough right now, and people will do anything to survive. In this situation, taking a risk seems like a helpless option."

Qin Ruxue stared at Lin Fan silently, feeling a little uneasy.

"You have a point, so I'm starting to get worried too."

She said slowly, "If it's true as you said, that this grand event that has been going smoothly for so many years has been disrupted by a single word from you, that would be really interesting."

"Don't worry, I'm just talking casually."

Lin Fan consoled him, "They dared to do this, so they definitely didn't just rely on reputation and intimidation. The security measures must be very strict, and they might even have armed protection provided by the country."

Qin Ruoxue breathed a sigh of relief, and the worries in her heart eased a little.

"Yeah, it's a super family! Maybe I can run into someone I know." She chuckled, trying to lighten the mood.

Lin Fan smiled slightly, but he had his own plans in mind.

He is the guardian of China - the King of Heaven, but in the outside world, he has another terrifying identity - the Ghost King.

Three years ago, because of excessive killing, he was taken back to Buzhou Mountain by his master for meditation and his freedom was restricted.

Now that he has come down the mountain, he tries not to leave China in order to suppress the rage in his heart.

He always reminded himself that he was a guardian, not a demon who slaughtered people wantonly. And this time out to sea, he just hoped that nothing would cause him to fall into bloodshed again.

"What are you thinking about?" Qin Ruxue asked curiously.

"Nothing, I was just wondering what treasures there would be at this event." Lin Fan replied.

"I don't know exactly what they are. Unless you are a super boss, no one will know in advance what the treasures inside are." Qin Ruxue shook her head and said.

"We can treat it as opening a blind box. Wouldn't that be more exciting?"

"Okay, then let's look forward to this surprise." Lin Fan said with a smile.

"There will definitely be a lot of valuable stuff."

Qin Ruoxue nodded in agreement: "For example, the long-lost sheep head that appeared last year is one of the ancient zodiac animal heads."

“Who took it?”

Lin Fan asked curiously. Although he wasn't well-versed in antiques, the Henggu Bronze Zodiac Animal Heads were renowned far and wide.

These bronze animal heads are not only treasures of Chinese culture, but also symbolize a complex history.

"It was a mysterious buyer who succeeded. The news is strictly confidential and the outside world has no way of knowing."

Qin Ruoxue explained, "In addition to the sheep head, there are many world-class treasures, any one of which is enough to shock people."

"Are they all genuine?" Lin Fan asked.

"If it was fake, would I bring you here?" Qin Ruxue answered with a smile.

"Besides auctions, there are also opportunities for free transactions. Actually, I don't particularly look forward to auctions. Those top-tier artifacts are usually priced ridiculously high, and even if I succeed in bidding, the price-performance ratio is not high."

Qin Ruxue said frankly: "When I do business, my primary consideration is profit."

"You're right. The value of national treasures often transcends their material nature."

Lin Fan agreed, "Besides, buying and selling national treasures is illegal."

“While events held on the high seas are exempt from certain laws, bringing national treasures back home is another matter.”

Qin Ruxue smiled and added, “So, I only invest in things that are safe and profitable.”

"It would be great if all businessmen thought like you, but unfortunately many are willing to take risks for the sake of profit."

Lin Fan sighed. At this moment, their yacht had already entered the high seas, and a huge luxury cruise ship came into view in front of them.
