Li Li Qingluo didn't leave, but gently patted the quilt.

Wang Wang Yuyan poked out her little head and looked at Li Li Qingluo shyly.

"I've seen everything, no need to be shy with me. Hurry up and get dressed and wash up. Maybe we'll be on our way soon!"

Li Li Qingluo said a final word, then got up and went out.

By the time Wang Wang Yuyan went downstairs, all the women were looking at her with playful expressions.

Seeing Wang Wang Yuyan somewhat at a loss, she couldn't help but sit next to Lin Fan, leaning against him.

"Lin Fan, you got up so early!"

A-Fei walked over and said with a smile.

"A day's plan lies in the morning, right? Are your internal injuries all healed?"

"All healed. Thanks to you, you helped me heal my injuries yesterday while also smoothing out my meridians, otherwise I wouldn't have recovered so quickly!"

"It was just a small effort, not worth mentioning!"

"Then I won't say much more, it would seem hypocritical. In the future, if you have any trouble, I will repay you with my life!"

A-Fei said solemnly.

"Hey, no need. I won't have any trouble, and I don't need you to repay me with your life. You're cursing me!"

Lin Fan felt helpless. Why couldn't A-Fei wish him well?

"Lu Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Hua Manlou are just looking for a death-row prisoner. A night has passed, why haven't they come back yet?"

A-Fei also knew his words were a bit problematic, so he smiled and changed the subject.

"I think it's probably because Lu Lu Xiaofeng's habit of meddling in other people's business has flared up again. I don't know where he went to find trouble!"

"Lin Fan, you're talking bad about me behind my back, that's really not right. You'll have to be punished with three cups of wine later!"

Speak of the devil and he shall appear. Lu Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Hua Manlou walked over, dragging someone with them.

"Who drinks early in the morning? I'm not that bored!"

Lin Fan shook his head helplessly. He wasn't Li Li Xunhuan, drinking all the time.

"As for you two, you're just looking for a death-row prisoner. Why did it take you all night?"

Lin Fan played with the teacup in his hand and asked curiously.

"Yesterday, after we found a suitable candidate, we found that it was already late. You were with so many beautiful women, it was really inconvenient to disturb you, so we waited until this morning to come over. Hua Hua Manlou even specially prepared a thank-you gift!"

As he spoke, Lu Lu Xiaofeng waved his hand, and people began to send gifts one after another—corals, pearls, jade, medicine, gold, everything.

"The treatment hasn't even started yet, why are the thank-you gifts here already? Aren't you afraid I won't be able to cure him?"

"It's already an honor for Hua Hua Manlou that Brother Lin is willing to take action. Even if you can't cure him, it's just a token of our appreciation!"

Hua Hua Manlou smiled. As long as the intention is there when making friends, Lin Fan's willingness to work for his affairs meant that Lin Fan regarded him as a friend, so he wouldn't take those small gifts to heart.

"Since we are friends, don't bring these things to dirty my eyes. Take them all away! Is this the candidate you chose on the ground?"

"That's right. I took Hua Hua Manlou to the prison to look, but unfortunately, there was no suitable candidate. So I thought of him. This person's name is Chen Chen Shimei. He just passed the age of twenty. He was originally from a wealthy family but his family fell on hard times. However, he was used to a life of luxury, so he declared that as long as he could continue to live like that, he would be willing to pay any price. It just so happens that the Hua family has money to satisfy his wish, so he voluntarily agreed to exchange his eyes for Hua Hua Manlou's!"

Seeing that Lin Fan was not moved at all, Lu Lu Xiaofeng signaled the servants to take away all the thank-you gifts, then smiled and explained why he chose the person on the ground.

"Money really can make ghosts push mills. Chen Chen Shimei, are you really willing to exchange your eyes for Hua Hua Manlou's? Are you prepared to be a blind person for the rest of your life?"

"Young Master, I am willing. The Hua family is the wealthiest in the world. They are willing to be responsible for my food and clothing, allowing me to live a life without worry. Of course, I am willing to exchange my eyes for Young Master Hua!"

Chen Chen Shimei nodded repeatedly, indicating that he was willing.

"Interesting. I wonder if you are interested in going to the 'Number One Villa Under Heaven' to compete for the title of 'Number One Lazy Person Under Heaven'?"

"Replying to the Young Master, I'm too lazy to go!"

"Hahaha, wonderful, wonderful. It's fine not to go. Otherwise, if you meet Eunuch Cao, and he says you're wasting rice, that wouldn't be good!"

Lin Fan felt that this Chen Chen Shimei was really interesting. Unfortunately, Chen Chen Shimei didn't understand Lin Fan's words and just looked at him with confusion.

Seeing that Chen Chen Shimei couldn't understand his fun, Lin Fan didn't talk nonsense anymore and took him and Hua Hua Manlou to prepare.

An hour later, Lin Fan walked out, followed by Hua Hua Manlou and Chen Chen Shimei, who were blindfolded.

"Lin Fan, how is it?"

"These are the medicinal materials needed and the precautions. I've written them on paper. Start applying medicine to him tomorrow. Change the medicine every seven days, for a total of four times. After a month, you can take off the gauze, and Hua Hua Manlou will recover his sight!"

Lin Fan said, took out a piece of paper, and handed it to Lu Lu Xiaofeng.

"Thank you, Brother Lin, for your help. Hua Hua Manlou is very grateful!"

"You wouldn't be so polite with Lu Lu Xiaofeng. Are you not treating me as a friend?"

"Actually, it's because Lu Lu Xiaofeng is too easy to push his luck, so I can't have a good attitude towards him. Otherwise, with his thick skin, I don't know what excessive demands he would make!"

Hua Hua Manlou laughed as he spoke. Lu Lu Xiaofeng was indeed a wicked friend.

"Hua Hua Manlou, you really use people when you need them and discard them when you don't. How can you talk about me in front of me? Isn't this pointing at a monk and scolding a bald man?"

Lu Lu Xiaofeng rubbed his nose. It seemed that Hua Hua Manlou had hope of recovering his sight, and he had become much more cheerful and could even crack jokes.

"Hua Hua Manlou is right. Lu Lu Xiaofeng is indeed that kind of person. You have a good eye for people!"

Lu Lu Xiaofeng couldn't speak. He was disliked by an old friend, and a new friend was also like this. Could it be that I, Lu Lu Xiaofeng, am so unlikable?

"You guys just tease me. Hua Hua Manlou has new friends and doesn't want his old friends anymore. Ximen Ximen Chuixue never does this!" Lu Lu Xiaofeng said, pretending to be aggrieved.

"Lu Lu Xiaofeng, you're not acting very well. It would be better if your tone was a bit more resentful! But since Hua Hua Manlou's matter is solved, I should go with A-Fei to see the legendary number one beauty of the Great Ming Jianghu, Lin Xian'er!"

Lin Fan was also amused by Lu Lu Xiaofeng's pretentious performance. Having such a friend would add a lot of fun to life, although there would also be a lot of trouble and danger. But Lu Lu Xiaofeng had many friends, so trouble shouldn't find its way to him... right?

"Hua Hua Manlou and I still have things to do. Many fake banknotes have appeared recently, which has formed an impact on the Hua family's Hao Datong Bank. We have to go find the mastermind behind the scenes, so we can't accompany you to see that Lin Xian'er!"

The mastermind behind the fake banknote case is that constable Luo Ma who uses water-splitting daggers or something, right? But he should just be a pawn, and there is a bigger mastermind behind him.

After all, he is just a small constable. Even if he colluded with the manager of Hao Datong Bank, how could he build the Bliss Building to collect money? Unfortunately, in the original work, the case stopped at Luo Ma.

"The truth is often hidden around you, but the truth that floats on the surface is not necessarily the essence of the truth. You must distinguish it carefully!"

Lin Fan finally reminded Lu Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Hua Manlou, and then took A-Fei and the women away.

"Hey, don't go. Do you know something? If you know, just tell me!"

Lu Lu Xiaofeng asked loudly from behind. Unfortunately, Lin Fan had no intention of answering again.

"Sigh, what I hate most is dealing with people who only say half of what they mean, but I ended up becoming friends with him. It's really meeting the wrong person, helpless, helpless!"

After Lin Fan left, Lu Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

"Lu Lu Xiaofeng, don't you like solving puzzles the most? If Lin Fan told you everything, it wouldn't be fun. I believe that with your wisdom, this fake banknote case won't stump you!" Hua Hua Manlou said with a smile.

"Just now you said I like to push my luck, and now you are praising my wisdom. No wonder the Hua family can be the wealthiest in the world. You businessmen's mouths really can't be trusted at all!"

"Then you are wrong. I have never intervened in the family business, and I have never liked to tell lies. Have you ever thought that your personality of liking to push your luck and your wise brain do not conflict, but coexist reasonably?"

Hua Hua Manlou said realistically.

"It's over, I'm even sadder when you say that. But you're right about one thing: I do like to solve difficult problems and clear the clouds, so I really have to take care of this fake banknote case!"
