Death Game: Starting as a fraudster, pretending to be a god.

Chapter 511 Holy Orchid Kui

Huo Le looked at Lin Yu seriously and said in surprise.

"What? Aren't you going to marry Buyetian Huoxing?"

Lin Yu was also very surprised.

"I'm curious how you came to this conclusion."

Huo Le of Buyetian explained seriously, "Because you need a legitimate 'identity' that can really interfere in the affairs of the Buyetian family, and Huo Xing's husband is a very good identity."

"Coincidentally, you will be participating in Huo Xing's coming-of-age ceremony—and as a guest."

"I thought my mother, with her wisdom, would have made the same choice... You've been delayed for so long, so you must have been plotting or dealing something, right?"

"After all, you need a high-ranking status, and your mother also needs to provide a proper 'placement' for Nevernight Fire Apricot... letting her marry you is the best choice."

After hearing Buyetian Huo Le's analysis, Lin Yu nodded.

Her analysis was indeed very reasonable. Even Lin Yu felt that if it was really Fu Luo who came... this might really be a possible event!

It’s a pity that all of Buyetian Huo Le’s inferences were based on a wrong foundation at the beginning.

It was not "Fu Luo" who reached a deal with the head of the Buye Tian family.

However, Lin Yu certainly couldn't tell this cause and effect to Buye Tianhuo Leming.

What's more, Lin Yu changed his mind and felt that this rumor seemed to be beneficial to him.

He could have used this rumor to hide his real purpose of assassinating someone at the banquet.

Therefore, Lin Yu spoke calmly, choosing an ambiguous attitude: "You do know your mother very well... However, no matter what the attitude of the patriarch is, I am not sure what I will do."

After hearing what Lin Yu said, Huo Le nodded and said, "I understand. Then the strategy for choosing gifts and dresses will have to change again... Forboluo, remember to return them to me."

"Do you still need this little money?"

Lin Yu looked at Buyetian Huo Le and said seriously.

Huo Le took a sip of the drink in his cup while the waiter brought the appetizer.

"These are all paid out of my personal account... These funds that cannot be reimbursed by the family are very valuable and are different from other expenses."

"But I don't want you to pay me back, I want you to pay me back for the favor."

Meanwhile, Huo Le sighed, "Although I don't know what agreement you and Mother have reached, it's clear that Mother isn't planning on providing any substantial assistance... It's going to be difficult to create a situation where you can propose without leaking the information."

"Although Huo Xing has an eccentric personality and can even be said to have a bad reputation, it is precisely because of this that many powerful people outside of the Five Great Nobles know that she is likely to marry down, and she has many suitors."

Lin Yu raised his eyebrows: "Why not let the news leak out? It's not impossible to let it cause rumors."

"Rather... I'm looking forward to everyone's reactions after learning about this."

"You want to use public opinion to build momentum? But that might lead to someone targeting you," Huo Le of the Nightless Sky said softly. "Even if you don't go too far for your mother's sake, fundamentally... you still don't have a truly fearful 'public identity'."

"No one targeted you before because you hadn't affected their interests. If you want to join Huo Xing's suitors, the situation will change."

Lin Yu smiled.

"It's okay, I have my own arrangements."

Buyetian Huo Le looked at Lin Yu, blinked, and then said.

"Forboluo... Although I have known you for a while, today seems like the first time I met you."

She leaned forward on the table, crossing the table and getting closer to Lin Yu.

This is a very disrespectful and rude act.

But Nevernight Huo Le didn't need to be polite in a place like this. She put an arm around Lin Yu's neck and whispered, "You're very different today, much more assertive than before... Before, I just thought you were a visitor from another world with some intelligence but little courage, a pretty boy who was good at pleasing his mother."

"But today... all that cowardice and unambitious optimism of the past seems like a disguise."

Having said that, Buyetian Huo Le grinned, revealing his sharp white teeth.

The breath she breathed gently blew on Lin Yu's face.

"Tell me the truth, Forboluo, you won't betray me, will you?"

Lin Yu looked at Buyetian Huo Le and laughed in silence.

"Tsk, this young lady is sick again. She just came once in the afternoon, and now she's baring her teeth again."

"This time it was even in a public place."

Lin Yu complained in his heart.

Although there were not many customers in the restaurant and the view between the booths was blocked by various scenery, there were still quite a few servants, bodyguards and waiters.

With Buyetian Huo Le's action, I'm afraid that before the rumor of "Forbolo wants to pursue Buyetian Huo Xing" spreads, the rumor of his affair with Buyetian Huo Le will spread.

If Lao Zheng had not been taken into the [Prop Space], he would probably have immediately and lengthily analyzed the lack of security and other issues behind Huo Le's unstable emotions.

However, Lin Yu did not have such a professional analysis or professional solution.

Lin Yu gently pressed his index finger against her chin and closed her mouth.

"Of course I won't—Huole, I promise you."

Lin Yu spoke softly, his voice full of affinity and persuasiveness.

He doesn't need professional plans or psychological techniques.

Since Huo Le in Buyetian lacks a sense of security, Lin Yu can naturally play the role of a reliable person who can make her feel at ease.

Huo Le stared at Lin Yu for a long time, and saw that Lin Yu's eyes had turned light-colored, as if he wanted to read Lin Yu's hesitation from them.

"If I become the head of the family, I will give you freedom."

She spoke without thinking, then let go of her hand and sat back in her chair.

Lin Yu looked at Buyetian Huo Le and was about to tease him in Fu Luo's tone, but he heard Buyetian Huo Le abruptly change the subject.

"There seems to be some movement at the door..."

Following Buyetian Huo Le's words, Lin Yu turned and looked towards the restaurant entrance, then discovered that Buyetian Huo Le was not really trying to change the subject.

A new wave of black-clad bodyguards and servants poured into the restaurant, all wearing gold badges.

The badge is designed as a blooming flower with three leaves and seven petals.

Just when Lin Yu was curious about where they came from, Huo Le from Buyetian spoke unexpectedly.

"The Shenglan family...what are they doing here?"

Afterwards, after the bodyguards cleared the way, the real owner also walked into the restaurant surrounded by a crowd of people.

Huo Le frowned.

"Saint Orchid..."

"Also, the Nevernight Fire Tree?!"

She saw a very familiar figure in the crowd.

Lin Yu on the other side also sat up straight without making a sound.

Because he also saw some familiar people - not the Nevernight Fire Tree.

Rather, it was the "Captain"—the captain designated by the employer who issued the C-77 commission.

"The Saint Orchid you're talking about is the guy in long boots next to the Nightless Sky Fire Tree?"

"Yes, that's him."

After hearing Buyetian Huo Le's reply, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

"Damn, I hit the jackpot."
