Why didn't you tell me earlier that my little sister is still waiting for me?

When Lin Bufan arrived at the entrance of Dasheng Law Firm, the scene was quite spectacular. He hired four strong men in suits and ties, two of them holding a banner and a flower basket respectively, while he himself walked in front holding a large bouquet of red roses.

"Sister Dasheng! I'm here!" Lin Bufan shouted at the top of his voice as he entered the door, causing everyone in the office to look up.

The receptionist was startled by the scene and stammered, "Excuse me, do you have an appointment?"

Lin Bufan shook his hair in a cool manner: "Of course, your lawyer Zhuge and I are old acquaintances!"

As he was speaking, Zhuge Dasheng hurried out of his office. Seeing this, he immediately held his forehead with his hand and said, "Lin Bufan! What are you going to do?"

"I'm here to thank Sister Dasheng for helping me with the contract last time!" Lin Bufan smiled and gestured for the strong men to put out the silk banners and flower baskets: "Look, this silk banner was designed especially for you!"

Zhuge Dasheng looked at the banner that read "Doraemon of the Legal World" and his mouth twitched. "You...what kind of nonsense is this?"

The other lawyers in the firm couldn't help but snicker, and some even took out their phones to secretly take photos. Seeing this, Lin Bufan became even more proud and stuffed the rose into Zhuge Dasheng's hand: "Sister Dasheng, this flower is for you too!"

Zhuge Dasheng hurriedly took the bouquet and said in a low voice, "Lin Bufan, come with me into the office!"

As soon as he entered the office, Zhuge Dasheng immediately closed the door and glared at Lin Bufan: "What on earth do you want to do?"

Lin Bufan said innocently, "I just came here to thank Dasheng Sister and talk about my new job."

"Don't try to be so rude!" Zhuge Dasheng slammed the bouquet onto the table. "Are you doing all this to stop me from stopping you from looking for Dali?"

"Sister Dasheng, what's the point of saying that?" Lin Bufan blinked and spread his hands innocently. "I just came here to thank you and talk about my new job. How could you think of me like that?"

Zhuge Dasheng sneered, leaning against his desk with his arms folded across his chest. "Lin Bufan, stop playing innocent here. I've seen this a lot. First you sent me banners and flower baskets, then you sent me roses in front of the whole office. Is the next step going to be putting heart-shaped candles outside my office door?"

"Oh, Sister Dasheng, you have such a vivid imagination!" Lin Bufan smiled and took a step closer. "If I really wanted to pursue you, why would I use such an old-fashioned trick? Besides, you're so smart, how could I dare to play tricks in front of you?"

Zhuge Dasheng's eyes were sharp as a knife. "Then tell me, why did you have to come today? And why did you make such a big scene? Don't tell me you don't know what rumors will spread around the firm if you do this?"

Lin Bufan pretended to be surprised and widened his eyes. "What's going on? How come I don't know? Sister Dasheng, please tell me quickly, is someone saying bad things about me behind my back?"

"Stop pretending. You just want to tell everyone you're pursuing me, then use the pressure of public opinion and your daily harassment to make me so annoyed that I'll agree to go find Dali, right?"

I have to say, I really can't play with that guy named Zhuge. He's too smart. He analyzed everything just by sending flowers. Will we be able to have some personal privacy in the future?

What about Dali's sister?

Could he be that smart?

Thinking of this, Lin Bufan suddenly wanted to slap himself. Dali sister is so cute, how could he doubt Dali sister?

After strengthening his confidence, Lin Bufan immediately put on an aggrieved expression: "Sister Dasheng, you really think too much! I have always regarded Dali as my junior, how could I have such thoughts?"

Zhuge Dasheng was visibly stunned for a moment, then he became even angrier: "You beast, not only do you covet Dali, you also want to play the game of cultivation?"

"Yes, that's right, I just want to play..." Lin Bufan was halfway through his words when he suddenly realized something was wrong and quickly covered his mouth: "What is this, Sister Dasheng, what are you talking about? How could I play with that kind of thing?"

Zhuge Dasheng sneered, picked up the folder on the desk and threw it at Lin Bufan: "You just accidentally said what you really think! You beast!"

Lin Bufan covered his head and ran away: "It's unfair, Great Sage Sister! I just slipped my tongue!"

"You slipped up? I think you accidentally let something slip from your mind!" Zhuge Dasheng was so angry that his chest heaved violently: "Today, I must enforce justice on behalf of Heaven!"

Lin Bufan was forced into a corner, with no way to escape. He suddenly put on a face as if ready to die: "Sister Dasheng, since things have come to this, I can only tell you the truth!"

Zhuge Dasheng's hand holding the folder stopped mid-air, staring at Lin Bufan warily: "What tricks are you going to play now?"

"Actually..." Lin Bufan took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly becoming affectionate: "The person I've always liked is you, Sister Dasheng!"

"What?!" Even Zhuge Dasheng, who was known for his calmness and wisdom, was surprised by Lin Bufan's sudden confession, and the folder in his hand fell to the ground with a "click".

Lin Bufan took the opportunity to step forward and said sincerely, "From the first time we met, I was deeply attracted by your mature and wise temperament. The way you handled cases was swift and decisive, the sharp and calm eyes when you debated, and the heroic aura when you taught me a lesson..."

After a brief moment of shock, Zhuge Dasheng's terrifying intelligence once again took the upper hand: "Lin Bufan, can you please be more careful when making up stories? Do you think I will believe it?"

"Everything I said is true!" Lin Bufan covered his chest, pretending to hold his heart like Xi Shi: "I know I'm not worthy of you, so I've never dared to confess. Now that you've seen through me today, I won't hide it anymore!"

Despite Lin Bufan's superb acting skills, he couldn't fool Zhuge Dasheng at all: "Lin Bufan, your tricks may be good for fooling little girls, but don't act in front of me."

Seeing this, Lin Bufan immediately took another step forward and without further ado, grabbed Zhuge Dasheng's hand and pressed it against his chest: "Sister Dasheng, feel it and see how fast my heart is beating! It's all because of seeing you!"

"Let go!" Zhuge Dasheng struggled hard, but Lin Bufan held his wrist firmly: "If you continue like this, I'll call for help!"

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the office door, and Zhuge Dali's voice came from outside the door: "Mom? Can I come in?"

Zhuge Dasheng was startled and subconsciously wanted to pull his hand back, but when Lin Bufan heard Zhuge Dali's voice, he had already quietly let go of Zhuge Dasheng's hand, which caused Zhuge Dasheng to fall backwards because he used too much force!

Seeing this, Lin Bufan hurriedly supported Zhuge Dasheng, but Zhuge Dasheng still let out a short cry of surprise due to the sudden feeling of weightlessness. Although the sound was quickly suppressed, Zhuge Dali outside the door obviously heard it.

"Mom? Are you okay?" Zhuge Dali's voice was filled with worry as he heard a rapid knock on the door.

Before Zhuge Dasheng could respond, the office door flung open. Standing at the doorway, Zhuge Dali saw Lin Bufan holding Zhuge Dasheng's waist with one hand and his wrist with the other, their two hands practically touching. Zhuge Dasheng's face still had a lingering blush, and roses and folders were scattered on the floor. The scene was incredibly ambiguous.

The air solidified instantly.

Zhuge Dali's eyes darted between the two of them, and suddenly a look of sudden realization appeared on his face. "Ah, I left my phone here. Let me get it." He quickly walked over to Zhuge Dasheng's desk, picked up his phone, and turned away. "You guys continue. Just pretend you didn't see me."

"Da Li! It's not what you think!" Zhuge Dasheng hurriedly broke free from Lin Bufan's hand and stepped forward quickly to explain.

Zhuge Dali waved his hands, a mischievous smile on his face: "Mom, you don't have to explain, I understand. Mr. Lin is a good person, I support you." After saying that, he winked at Lin Bufan: "Come on, brother Bufan!"

Lin Bufan could see that Zhuge Dali's blessing was sincere, but it was not right. What I wanted to be was your Bufan brother, not your Bufan father!

"Da Li, I just accidentally fell down and Lin Bufan helped me up!" Zhuge Dasheng was embarrassed and anxious, his face red to his ears.

Although what Zhuge Dasheng said was not entirely true, it was still true to a great extent. Unfortunately, Zhuge Dali did not believe a word of it: "By the way, Mom, I won't be home for dinner tonight. You two can have a good chat." After saying that, he quickly closed the door and slipped away.

The office fell silent again. Zhuge Dasheng took a deep breath, turned around and glared at Lin Bufan: "Are you satisfied now?"

Lin Bufan touched his nose and said with a wry smile, "This... is purely an accident. But Sister Dasheng, look how much Dali supports us, otherwise..."

"Get out!" Zhuge Dasheng pointed to the door. "Right now! Immediately!"

Lin Bufan sighed and pretended to straighten his clothes. "Okay, I'll come visit you another day. By the way, I did come here today to discuss work. I'll send you the details later."

Seeing that Lin Bufan was still talking about work, Zhuge Dasheng finally believed that Lin Bufan had come here to discuss work. So Zhuge Dasheng straightened his somewhat messy clothes and regained his calm demeanor as an elite lawyer. "Tell me, what kind of work is it?"

Lin Bufan, who was about to leave, couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw Zhuge Dasheng's expression. He looked incredulous: "Sister Dasheng, it's already this late, and you're still in the mood to talk about work? Do you love work that much?"

"What else?" Zhuge Dasheng raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms. "Do you want me to cry like a little girl or chase you around and play with you? Lin Bufan, do you have any misunderstandings about my professional ethics?"

Lin Bufan scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, "No, I just feel that... after what happened just now, we should at least deal with our emotional issues first, right?"

"Relationship issues?" Zhuge Dasheng sneered, "What kind of relationship issues are there between you and me? Are you really planning to confess your feelings to me?"

Lin Bufan's thoughts were exposed, but he was not embarrassed. Instead, he said with a smile: "Sister Dasheng, what you said is true. My admiration for you is like a surging river..."

"Stop talking nonsense." Zhuge Dasheng interrupted Lin Bufan and pointed to the chair opposite the desk: "Sit down and talk business."

Lin Bufan sat down across from the desk and casually picked up the signature pen on the table and played with it. "Sister Dasheng, the first thing is about the magic bet I made on the show 'Yearning'. I need to go to the notary office to get a notarization and deposit 100 million in cash into a designated account. The notary office will supervise the entire process."

Zhuge Dasheng frowned slightly and took out a notebook from the drawer: "Are you sure you want to play such a big game? One hundred million cash is not a small amount of money."

"Of course I'm sure." Lin Bufan twirled his pen, his tone as relaxed as if he were discussing today's weather: "I, Lin Bufan, always keep my word. Besides, my magic is flawless, there's no way anyone can crack it."

Zhuge Dasheng quickly wrote down the key points. "I'll follow the entire notarization process. You'll need to provide proof of funds, identity, and sign a series of legal documents. The notary office will verify your financial status to ensure you can afford to pay the prize."

"No problem." Lin Bufan snapped his fingers. "The money is ready and can be transferred at any time. By the way, can the notarization be made more grand? It would be best if we could invite a few media outlets to report on it."

Zhuge Dasheng raised his head and glanced at Lin Bufan: "Are you afraid that others don't know how much of a spendthrift you are?"

"That's called marketing!" Lin Bufan corrected him confidently. "Think about it, once this explosive news is reported, everyone in the country will know about it. I can then use this opportunity to promote my new movie, 'Prison on Fire,' saving tens of millions in publicity and promotional fees."

Zhuge Dasheng shook his head helplessly, then said, "You can ask the media, but you'll need to find someone else. My firm only handles legal procedures, not public relations."

Lin Bufan curled his lips: "Sister Dasheng, your service is not comprehensive enough. How about I pay a little more and you help me with it?"

"No need to discuss this." Zhuge Dasheng rubbed his brows. "What's the second thing?"

"The second thing..." Lin Bufan suddenly lowered his voice and approached Zhuge Dasheng mysteriously: "I plan to acquire SM Entertainment."

Zhuge Dasheng pondered for a moment before forming an impression: "SM Entertainment? The Korean star-making factory?"

"That's right." Lin Bufan snapped his fingers. "I've already contacted their boss, Lee Soo-man. He'll be coming to Shanghai for an interview the day after tomorrow. I'll have to trouble Sister Dasheng to follow up on this matter, including due diligence and contract negotiations."

Zhuge Dasheng put down his pen and crossed his hands before his chin. "Lin Bufan, do you know how much it would cost to acquire an entertainment company of this caliber? Besides, it involves a cross-border merger and acquisition, and the approval process is quite complicated."

"Money is not a problem." Lin Bufan shrugged nonchalantly. "As for the approval... we have you, Sister Dasheng! I believe that with your ability, you can handle these things without any problem."

Zhuge Dasheng stared at Lin Bufan for a few seconds, then suddenly asked, "You acquired SM Entertainment, weren't you just looking for Song Qian?"

"I swear to God!" Lin Bufan immediately raised three fingers and swore, "I'm attracted by their star-making system and mature experience in operating girl groups. If Xiaofan Entertainment wants to develop, it must introduce advanced models."

"You don't have to tell me this. This has nothing to do with my work." Zhuge Dasheng closed his notebook expressionlessly. "Anything else? If not, please go back. I have other cases to deal with."

Lin Bufan rolled his eyes in annoyance: You don’t care, but you’re still asking?

Standing up and straightening his collar, Lin Bufan slowly walked towards the door. As his hand touched the doorknob, he suddenly turned around and gave a cheeky grin, "Aunt Dasheng, before you go, I have one last thing to say—you have to have some confidence in yourself. If Dali wasn't standing between us, I might actually confess my feelings to you!"

"roll!!!"
