I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head - Chapter 148

Chapter 148 Chu Yunfan’s Secrets

“Hahaha, you’re here, Yunfan!” Liu Weiguo took a step forward and patted Chu Yunfan on the shoulder.

Chu Yunfan felt overwhelmed by this show of favor, and he was also a bit puzzled. Although Liu Weiguo’s attitude before could be considered cordial, he had never shown him such a warm expression before.

“Come, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Zhao. His family is in real estate.” Liu Weiguo introduced the middle-aged man next to Chu Yunfan.

“Hello. Chu Yunfan, right? My name is Zhao Zhiyou.” The middle-aged man reached out and shook hands with Chu Yunfan. Chu Yunfan could feel that his handshake was very strong. He could feel that Zhao Zhiyou was a martial artist.

“Hello, Mr. Zhao,” Chu Yunfan said in neither a servile nor overbearing manner.

“I heard Mr. Liu mention you. You are indeed a young talent,” said Zhao Zhiyou.

“Mr. Zhao, you are too polite,” said Chu Yunfan. However, his eyes were looking at Liu Yushu, who was at the side. He had no idea what she was up to.

Liu Yushu stepped forward and said promptly, “Yunfan, didn’t you ask me to check if there are any villas in our neighborhood that are for sale? My father asked a few people last night. It just so happens that there’s a villa for sale. Isn’t it such a happy coincidence?”

Chu Yunfan immediately understood that this Zhao Zhiyou just so happened to be selling a villa.

“So it’s you who wants to sell the villa, Mr. Zhao,” Chu Yunfan said with a sudden realization.

“That’s right. My business is gradually moving to Donghua City and I plan to settle down there, so there’s no use for me to keep my villa here. So I plan to sell it. But just as I had this idea, Mr. Liu happened to come knocking on my door, so I thought it’d be better to meet him today instead of another day,” Zhao Zhiyou said.

Chu Yunfan finally understood why. It was rare for a mature villa in the Spirit Moon Community to go up for sale. It had been developed for quite a long time. All the houses here were already occupied, so he did not have much hope. He just casually asked. He had not really expected to get a reply. “But my house is in the center of the Spirit Moon Community. The price is not cheap,” Zhao Zhiyou paused and looked at Chu Yunfan, “It’s not that I don’t trust you, Mr. Chu, but I always bring up the ugly things first when I do business!” “Don’t worry. Money is not a problem. As long as I’m satisfied, I’ll pay immediately!” Chu Yunfan said.

“Okay, no problem. Yushu, bring Mr. Chu to my house. I’ve already given the order. You can go take a look. Your father and I still have something to discuss,” Zhao Zhiyou said.

“Okay, no problem. Yunfan, come with me.” Liu Yushu accepted the task readily.

After Chu Yunfan and Liu Yushu left, Zhao Zhiyou spoke, “Why are you so interested in being a middleman today? I originally had no intention of selling the villa. I just wanted to show it to him for your sake. From the looks of it, he might not be able to afford it.” “Don’t underestimate him,” Liu Weiguo said with a smile, “Do you think I will just help anyone? But Chu Yunfan is different. When I first met him, he was just a sparring partner for Yushu. He was her sparring partner for a few thousand yuan. At that time, I thought he was pretty talented and didn’t take it to heart!” “Then why are you so enthusiastic now?” Zhao Zhiyou sat down on the sofa and picked up a cup of coffee to drink.

“Because I’m shocked!” Liu Weiguo also picked up a cup of coffee and took a sip.

“Oh? He shocked you? He’s no ordinary person then,” Zhao Zhiyou was interested. He knew Liu Weiguo’s strengths very well. He had seen all kinds of big scenes. And this young man could actually shock him. What kind of ability did he have?

“That’s right. A few months ago, he was just an ordinary person in an ordinary high school. But do you know what place he got in the recent final exams?” Liu Weiguo said.

“Top ten?” Zhao Zhiyou felt that Chu Yunfan’s rank must have been very high.

“Top ten? You underestimate him. Someone informed me that he’s ranked first in the final exam,” said Liu Weiguo with a faint smile.

“First?” Zhao Zhiyou suddenly became serious. He was not in the habit of underestimating anyone. Even if Chu Yunfan was just first in an ordinary high school, he was still an elite among the elites.

Most importantly, he understood Liu Weiguo’s meaning. First place in a small high school was not enough to impress the two big bosses. The key was that in just a few months, he had improved by leaps and bounds. That was the key!

“If that was all, I wouldn’t have gone to such great lengths for him. Someone who performs well in school and goes out into the world is still just a rookie. But the key is that a few months ago, he was just a sparring partner for Yushu for a few thousand yuan. Now, he can actually afford to buy a house in Spirit Moon Community. Don’t you think it’s strange?” Liu Weiguo said. “Are you saying that he’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing?” Zhao Shiyou said, “In that case, could it be that a rich man wants to chase after Yushu? There are a lot of such people!”

“That’s not it. I’ve checked. For the past ten years, he was just an ordinary teenager. His parents are also ordinary townsfolk. They don’t have much of a background, but in the past few months, they suddenly exploded!” Liu Weiguo said, “Don’t you think this kind of thing is very familiar?”

“You mean he had a fortuitous encounter?” Zhao Zhiyou said, “Hehe, these past few years, this kind of news is not unheard of. I envy those people who have fortuitous encounters!

“I know you must be hiding some other information from me. Just this little fortuitous encounter is not enough to catch your eye, right? But forget it, I don’t care. I don’t care what the reason is. Anyway, I’m just here to sell my villa and take the money. I don’t care about anything else!”

Liu Weiguo chuckled and did not reply. He was only thinking about the information he had just found. He had used his connections to check Chu Yunfan’s account. Although he could not find out the exact amount, it was an indisputable fact that Chu Yunfan had a large amount of money flowing into his account. In other words, Chu Yunfan was related to the alchemy expert Bai Hong. Liu Weiguo had quite a lot of power in Jinghai City. However, compared to the alchemy expert Bai Hong, who had connections throughout the entire human society, he was nothing.

In Liu Weiguo’s eyes, Chu Yunfan’s identity became even more mysterious. It was because of this that he was willing to help.

What other secrets did this Chu Yunfan have?
