101 Chapter 101
Lin Fan immediately revealed a shocked look which surprised everyone around him.
While they were confused why he looked so shocked, Lin Fan quickly asked the system in his mind, "Tutorial, what do you mean by tutorial?"
"Host, a tutorial is by definition a paper, book, film, or computer program that provides practical information about a specific subject."
Lin Fan had dark lines on his face, "I mean, what do you mean by a tutorial…"
"Host, before properly running the pet shop, you had to learn how to become a proper owner and spread your name. Now that you have done that, your tutorial is over and it is time to step on the path of dominance."
"Host, to reward you for completing the tutorial, you will now receive another bloodline augmentation."
"Bloodline augmentation has been given. Host, please check the status of the pet to confirm."
Lin Fan was shocked again, it was this bloodline augmentation again. Last time he received this gift, he had received three ancient bloodlines. Now that he was receiving another one, just what kind of amazing pet would he get?
Lin Fan immediately opened up his system interface and went through his pets one by one until he finally came to the one that had received the augmentation.
As expected, it was Xiao Bai and the bloodline that it received was the White Tiger bloodline!
Water White Tiger (Young)
Grade: Unique
Cultivation: Bronze 1
Bloodline: White Tiger
Skills: Water Blade, Water Control, Water Shatter, Water Clones
Combat Strength: 30.0
System's comments: Could be better!
But before Lin Fan had time to react to this, the system's voice once again rang out to give him another notification.
"Host, since you have completed the tutorial, the system has been upgraded to a grade two system."
"Host, you have unlocked a new tier of items in the shop and you have unlocked the lucky draw function."
"Ding, the host has unlocked the next main mission!"
"Host, please establish three branch shops within the next six months. Failure to do so will result in the host being struck down by heavenly thunder and turned to ashes!"
"Young man, how can you live your life in a small pond? A carp must jump over the dragon gate, you must see the world to become a real man!"
"System, are you sure you aren't making a mistake!? I thought we were close, but now it seems like you've been plotting against me the entire time!" Lin Fan couldn't help shouting in his mind.
"Host, please make no mistake, all the system's missions are for the good of the host."
"Host, also please be aware that each of the three branch stores must enjoy the same level of popularity as the main store. Each store must have their training spots completely filled each day just like in the main store."
"Sure, sure, why not kick a man when he's down? Not only do I have to get three branch shops, I also have to make them popular?" Then Lin Fan calmed down and gave a sigh, "At least I have the deeds to the Feng Family's pet shops, that should help me with this mission."
"Host, please be aware that each of the branches have to be in a different city. How could you experience the world if you only remain at home all the time?"
"F**k!" Lin Fan really couldn't help swearing, the system really was being too unreasonable!
Not only would he have to deal with the Lin Family, he had to run around creating different stores at the same time? This was just asking too much of him!
"Host, foul language detected! First warning!"
That was a nostalgic warning that hadn't been heard in a long time…
Lin Fan knew that it was no use arguing with the system when it made up its mind. The only thing he could do now was plan out how he would set up three branches in six months…
After watching Lin Fan go through a roller coaster of emotions and finally seeing him calm down, while they were worried about his mental state, his parents still excused themselves and headed home first.
Lin Fan wanted to come with them, but his dad just waved his hand and told him to stay with his friends.
Lin Fan knew that his dad was telling him in his own way to not worry about the family and he appreciated it, so he said that he would be home soon.
…
After Lin Fan's parents left the store, Lin Fan's dad sent his wife and daughter home first as he headed off with his two brothers. But once they went a certain distance, Lin Ao also excused himself from his two brothers.
Once he went off for a bit, he came to this dark alley where he waited patiently until a dark figure landed beside him.
"Greetings, young master." The dark figure said.
"Cut the crap, just tell me what grandfather has planned." Lin Ao angrily said.
"Young master, the old master has long thought that the Lin Family could do with a purge, that is why he had this subordinate stop the young master." The dark figure said in a humble voice.
It had been this dark figure that had Lin Ao stop Lin Fan from killing Lin Yu.
"Then why is he having my son do it?" Lin Ao's face turned dark.
"This is the old master's test for the young young master and at the same time, it's a way for the young young master to establish his prestige in the family." The dark figure said.
"The old master is planning to make Xiao Fan his successor?" Lin Ao said in a surprise voice.
"That isn't certain, but young master must agree that the Lin Family must be purged, right?" The dark figure said.
Lin Ao thought about the scene from before and he couldn't help shaking his head as he gave a sigh.
Just from Lin Yu's behaviour he could tell that the situation was much worse than before he left the Lin Family.
Their arrogance was slowly undermining them from the inside, but they were too stuck in their ways to notice their errors.
Perhaps grandfather was right, the only way to fix this problem was for a purge…
Still Lin Ao revealed a firm look and said to the dark figure, "I understand grandfather's thoughts, but pass on a message from me to him. If he puts Xiao Fan in any danger, I won't hesitate to break off all face with the Lin Family. I will bring all of us down together."
The dark figure lowered his head and solemnly said, "Young master, please be assured, the old master has made all the preparations. The old master assures that nothing will happen to the young young master."
Lin Ao revealed a cold look as he said, "I hope so." Then without looking back, he walked off.
The dark figure couldn't help thinking of the glorious past of this exiled genius as he watched this back and he couldn't help give a sigh when he remembered this past.
…
Back in the store, when Lin Fan's family left, the only ones left were his friends and his employees.
When Lin Fan's family were still here, Luo Qing seemed like she had been struggling with something, but she seemed to have to have made a decision as soon as they left.
Before anyone could even say anything, she came up to Lin Fan and staring right into his eyes, she said, "I need to talk to you alone, come with me."
Not giving him any chance to say anything, she grabbed his hand and led him out of the shop.
Lin Fan wanted to say something at first, but seeing her determined look, he felt like there was nothing he could say. The only thing he could do was obediently follow behind her.
Before she left the shop, Luo Qing turned back to everyone and said, "No one is allowed to follow us."
Then without looking back, she dragged Lin Fan to an alley by the store.
Standing there, she looked at Lin Fan and Lin Fan looked back at her, neither of them saying a single word as they silently stared at each other.
After a few minutes, Luo Qing finally worked up her courage.
In front of Lin Fan's surprised eyes, she suddenly came forward and stood up on her tiptoes, suddenly planting a kiss right on Lin Fan's lips.
It was clear that she was new to kissing with how sloppy her technique was, but she put every emotion that she felt into this kiss.
After a few seconds, she separated from Lin Fan and with a face that was completely red, she said, "This is how I feel. You don't have to respond to me now, but I hope that you will respond to me soon."
Then without giving Lin Fan a chance to say anything, she quickly left with her burning red face.
Lin Fan's mind was completely blank and his face was completely red as he just stood in a daze in that alley.
