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

“Quiet! Quiet!” the staff raised their voices to maintain order: “Please remain calm, we still need to complete the notarization process.”

By the time the staff had the scene under control, nearly half an hour had passed, and Douyin was repaired at this time!

Lin Bufan picked up the selfie stick again and flashed his signature mischievous grin towards the camera: "Family, nice to see you again! Did everyone see the magic trick just now?"

As soon as the live broadcast started, the comment section was filled with complaints about Douyin:

"It crashed again! Is the Douyin server made of paper?"

"Boss Lin's magic is amazing! He knocked Dou Yin down twice!"

"Tech Guy: Thank you so much!"

"It's over, it's really over now. Lucy is going to have a rough night!"

"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter! This live broadcast accident will go down in history!"

……

After taking control of the situation, the notary who had been beside Lin Bufan said, "Mr. Lin, can we check this bracelet?"

Lin Bufan spread his hands generously: "Of course, check it at your convenience."

The notary took the bracelet and tested it with a professional instrument, declaring: "It is indeed made of pure gold, weighing about 50 grams."

There was another uproar at the scene. Lin Bufan took the bracelet and put it on Zhuge Dasheng's wrist in full view of everyone: "Sister Dasheng, this is a souvenir for you."

Zhuge Dasheng wanted to refuse, but Lin Bufan leaned close to her ear and whispered, "There are so many people watching, please give me some face."

Zhuge Dasheng glared at Lin Bufan, but ultimately did not remove the bracelet. This scene was captured by sharp-eyed reporters and immediately went viral online.

The notarization process continued. The staff deposited the 100 million yuan in cash into the designated account, and Lin Bufan and the notary office representative signed and stamped the document. Finally, the notary solemnly announced, "After notarization, Mr. Lin Bufan's magic challenge has officially begun, and the 100 million yuan prize has been deposited into the escrow account."

After hearing that it was really notarized, the comments in the live broadcast room instantly exploded:

"Holy crap! One hundred million in real money! What a waste!"

"Boss Lin is so generous! This move is amazing!"

"I'm quitting my job to study magic, guys!"

"Fake resignation—I'm going to quit to study magic, guys! Real resignation—Guys, I've already thrown my resignation letter in my boss's face!"

"Boss Lin, look at me! I cracked it! Send me the money!"

……

Meanwhile, the top ten trending searches on Weibo, already dominated by Lin Bufan, were once again dominated by him: "Lin Bufan's 100 Million Magic Challenge Challenges Zhuge Dasheng for a Gold Bracelet." Douyin's servers crashed again. Moments and WeChat groups frantically forwarded video clips of the notarization ceremony, and discussion threads on major forums mushroomed.

The scene was abuzz with activity, with reporters scrambling to get forward, their flashbulbs lighting up the notary office like daylight. Onlookers frantically filmed with their phones, and even those who hadn't entered the notary office began pushing their way in, leading passersby to believe a zombie atrocity had occurred.

Just when everyone's excitement was at its highest, a tall, thin young man wearing black-framed glasses suddenly pushed through the crowd and rushed to the front, waving his hands excitedly: "I cracked it! I cracked it! I've seen through this magic trick! This 100 million is mine!"

The scene was silent for a second before an even greater commotion erupted. Reporters immediately turned their cameras to focus on the young man, while the onlookers chattered:

"Is this true? Has it been cracked already?"

"Who is this person? Could he be a shill who staged this all himself?"

"Quick, quick, record it!"

The audience in the live broadcast room also exploded:

"Holy crap! Someone really cracked it?"

"Hey buddy, I'll give you 5 yuan, can you give me this opportunity?"

"Hurry up, we want to see the cracking process!"

"Let's all go! This is definitely a shill. I was wondering, why would anyone spend 100 million on something so frivolous?"

"The guy above, stop slandering my prince. My prince would never do such a thing!"

……

However, at this critical moment, the Douyin live broadcast room screen was stuck again, and the barrage area was filled with wailing:

"It collapsed again! It collapsed again! Douyin should just change his name to Sanbengzi!"

"The Douyin technical department is working overtime tonight!"

"According to my observation, Douyin's collapse this time was significantly more sudden and unexpected than the previous two times, so this further confirms my previous suspicions. That person was clearly a shill. This time, Douyin's own collapse was caused in order to prevent us from discovering the flaws. I'm sure that when the live broadcast resumes, Lin Bufan will definitely say that the magic trick was successfully cracked by that man, and the 100 million will be given to him. As for who will get the money in the end, I believe those who understand will understand!"

"Stop just talking nonsense upstairs, if you have the guts, come up with something special! Oh, and don't come here to cheat for free food and drinks!"

……

Douyin's recent crash couldn't have been Lin Bufan's fault. Instead, after news of "someone cracking the magic trick" spread rapidly through social media, countless viewers flocked to Douyin's livestream, and the server, unable to handle the sudden surge in traffic, crashed again. The topic of "Douyin crashed again" quickly climbed to the top of trending searches on Weibo, with netizens jokingly commenting, "Whether Mr. Lin's magic trick was cracked or not, Douyin's nickname of "The Three Crashers" is definitely here to stay."

At the notary office, the tall, thin young man wearing black-framed glasses kept his mouth shut and glanced warily at the crowd around him. His eyes were filled with both excitement and vigilance, like a wild cat guarding its food.

"I found a flaw!" He said loudly to Lin Bufan, while constantly glancing at the onlookers holding mobile phones and cameras. "But I can't say it here, what if others hear it..."

Looking at the serious expression on the man's face, Lin Bufan couldn't help but feel suspicious. Do you have a system too, buddy?

It shouldn't be possible. How can there be two systems in one world?

Besides, if you have a system, your life would be too miserable. You have to show up in public for a mere 100 million?

Lin Bufan looked up and down at the tall, thin young man wearing black-framed glasses for a while, then said, "Okay, then come over here."

The bodyguards got the signal and made way. The young man rushed to Lin Bufan in two steps, his cheeks flushed with excitement: "I saw it! I--"

"No hurry, no hurry." Lin Bufan raised his hand to interrupt the man: "Let's talk later."

"What?!" The young man suddenly became anxious, his voice rising unconsciously: "Are you planning to shirk your responsibility? There are so many people watching! The notary office has even notarized it!"

Now Lin Bufan could confirm that this person definitely didn't have the system's support. After all, the system had its own rules for selecting people, and it certainly wouldn't choose someone without any scheming. If it had to choose someone, it would choose someone like him, who was handsome, suave, elegant, talented, knowledgeable, dignified, graceful, elegant, handsome, talented, outstanding, exceptional, outstanding, standing out from the crowd, a dragon among men, unparalleled, unique, and one-of-a-kind!

So, don’t blame the system for not choosing you. You should first look for the reasons in yourself and see if you are good enough!

Thinking of this, Lin Bufan couldn't help but touch his angular chin and straightened his collar to ensure that his 360-degree handsomeness could be perfectly displayed.

"Mr. Lin! Did you hear what I said?" The young man stamped his feet anxiously when he saw Lin Bufan was distracted.

Lin Bufan came back to his senses and smiled charmingly, "Don't worry, for such an important moment as the magic reveal, of course I have to witness it with my family."

The young man was confused. Family? What family?

Just as the young man was about to say, "Forget about your family, even if you call the Queen Mother over today, she'll have to pay," the notary beside him couldn't stand it anymore. He pushed his glasses and explained, "Mr. Lin means that he's waiting for the Douyin live broadcast to resume so that the audience in the live broadcast room can witness it together."

"Ah?" The young man opened his mouth wide, obviously not expecting this to happen.

After a long wait, Sanbenzi, ah... Douyin is finally repaired!

"Family! We meet again! I missed you so much! In order to let you get the first-hand information, I have been delaying the magic reveal until now!" Lin Bufan waved enthusiastically at the restored live broadcast room, and the barrage of comments instantly surged like a tide:

"Boss Lin, I hope this is the third and last time, otherwise don't blame me for uninstalling it!"

"I've already gone to the bathroom three times!"

"Huh? Isn't the bonus still there?"

"Where's the guy who just accused Mr. Lin of cheating? Come out and take a walk?"

"Exactly! Didn't they say the prize money had already been claimed? Does your face hurt?"

"Haha, this is all a show for you guys. I already arranged it when I wasn't live streaming. Just wait and see, the money will definitely be taken away by this guy. If he doesn't, I'll eat a pound of it. You're a liar!"

"Well, I told you he was a swindler, but now I'm exposed, right?"

"That's right, if you have the guts, you can say that Dragon people don't lie to Dragon people!"

……

Lin Bufan looked at the young man with glasses with a smile: "Okay, now you can tell me, what flaws have you found?"

The young man pushed up his glasses and pointed at Zhuge Dasheng with confidence, "The gold bracelet is hidden in her sleeve! I saw her sneak it out with my own eyes!"

There was an uproar at the scene and in the live broadcast room, but this uproar was not because the magic trick was cracked, but a feeling of disappointment of "That's it?"

"Damn it! I thought I had cracked it, but this is it?"

"Is this guy blind? Lawyer Zhuge didn't move his hands the entire time, okay?"

"You're not even going to care about your face for 100 million, are you?"

"If you give me 100 million, I don't care about this face!"

"Brothers, whoever peed yellow, wake him up!"

The live broadcast room was filled with crazy comments:

"With this level of skill, he still dares to come and claim 100 million? Even my grandmother can see things more clearly than him!"

"Is this guy here to scam people?"

"Mr. Lin: That's it? That's it? You're wasting my time!"

"Dude, your acting is terrible. I can tell at a glance that you're lying. You should sign up for some lessons!"

Lin Bufan spread his hands and looked at the man with glasses helplessly: "Look, the public's eyes are sharp. You can't even pass the test of the public."

"You're talking nonsense! I clearly saw it!" The man with glasses blushed, as if he'd been wronged. He stiffened his neck and shouted, "If you're not guilty, then do it again! Let me be your assistant this time. I'll definitely expose you right there!"

The scene became noisy again, and the quick-witted audience members immediately understood his intention.

"Damn, this guy is quite cunning!" A fat man in a plaid shirt slapped his thigh and shouted, "He didn't even notice the flaw. He just wanted to force Mr. Lin to perform again and use him as an assistant so that he could have a chance to observe closely!"

"Isn't this clearly a rogue act?" The girl in the baseball cap next to them rolled her eyes. "If everyone did this, wouldn't Mr. Lin be performing until dark?"

The live broadcast room barrage also exploded instantly:

"Dude, I need to apologize. With your acting skills, the Oscars owe you a little golden statue. Why don't you start a class? I'll be the first to sign up!"

"It's a shame this guy doesn't go guerrilla warfare. He's really good at making a feint to the east and attacking in the west!"

"Mr. Lin, don't be fooled! He just wants a free opportunity to observe closely!"

"If it were up to Mr. Lin, I'd just have to put on one more show and make him give up!"

"The guy upstairs, do you want him to give up, or do you want to see it again?"

"Sure enough, those who play tactics are all dirty!"

……

Lin Bufan touched his chin and looked at the man with glasses with a half-smile: "Oh? You want to be an assistant?"

The man with glasses pushed up his glasses and said smugly, "That's right! If you say I'm wrong, then prove it to me. If you don't dare to prove it, then prove that I'm right, and then you have to give me the 100 million!"

Lin Bufan suddenly admired the man with glasses. It was not for any other reason, but because he was indeed very similar to him in terms of shamelessness!

"Performing again is no problem, but..." Lin Bufan looked embarrassed: "But my magic assistant must be a woman, otherwise it won't work!"

When the man with glasses heard Lin Bufan say that the assistant must be a woman, he immediately asked angrily, "Why does it have to be a woman? Isn't this an excuse?"

Lin Bufan spread his hands and said helplessly, "I explained the reason on the 'Yearning' program, but the video online is too short, so it might not have been included. So I'll explain it again."

Lin Bufan cleared his throat and explained seriously, "The principle of my magic is to borrow some gold from the gods in heaven. The gods said that they only lend it to women, not men, so there's nothing I can do!"

The man with glasses stamped his feet in anger: "You are blatantly sexist!"

"Hey, hey, hey, stop putting the blame on me!" Lin Bufan quickly waved his hands. "I don't have any gender bias. Whether they're male or female, they're all my family. Anyway, let me put it this way: only women can assist in this magic trick and perform it. What do you say?"

The man with glasses rolled his eyes and immediately had an idea: "Then I have to find this woman!"

Lin Bufan nodded readily: "Sure, go ahead and find it."

The man with glasses looked around, scanning the crowd. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he walked straight towards a burly, fleshy "lady".

Lin Bufan took a closer look and was almost frightened to death. This "lady" must have weighed at least 200 pounds, was wearing a floral dress, and was heavily made up, looking like a cross-dresser.

"Wait, wait!" Lin Bufan quickly grabbed the man with glasses and said, "Just now, the immortal appeared in my dream again. Ugh...he called me and told me that since you doubt it, then I can let you experience it myself. There's no need to find a female guest."

The barrage instantly exploded:

"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Is Mr. Lin scared?"

"Boss Lin: I was wrong, brother. Can we stop making trouble?"

"I can prove that Mr. Lin is not sexist, he is appearance-based!"
