Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 690: Greater Ability Brings Greater Responsibility

"Mr. Lin, what do you think?"

Wei Jisheng looked at Lin Fan, puffing on his cigar leisurely, as if he had Lin Fan cornered.

He didn’t believe Lin Fan dared to refuse him.

Right now, Lin Fan was in a bind, and this matter caught him off guard, giving Wei Jisheng the upper hand!

Wei Jisheng was very pleased with his arrangement this time. Besides complying, Lin Fan had no other choice.

Lin Fan said calmly, "Your Wei Family wants to develop in Yun City, which originally has nothing to do with me..."

Wei Jisheng laughed, "Exactly, Mr. Li should have this awareness. Whatever our Wei Family wants to do in Yun City is none of your business, just don’t obstruct us."

Lin Fan said, "I haven’t finished speaking. Indeed, anyone can come to Yun City to do business. I don’t have the right to stop them. After all, Yun City doesn’t belong to just me, and I’m not that domineering. However, there is one premise: don’t conduct business that harms others for your own gain. If I don’t encounter it, so be it. But if I do, I can’t pretend I didn’t see."

Wei Jisheng chuckled, "Mr. Lin, how noble of you. Do you think you’re the Holy Father?"

Lin Fan replied, "I’m not the Holy Father. I just happen to have a bit of ability. As they say, with great power comes great responsibility. In life, there are things beyond one’s reach, like those vegetable vendors. They simply cannot compete with big capitalists like the Wei Family and can only helplessly suffer erosion. But I can help them as much as I can."

If Lin Fan were still the delivery man he once was, he could only sigh helplessly upon witnessing the vegetable vendors’ plight.

But now, Lin Fan didn’t need to lament. He could take actual actions to help, so why not?

When ordinary people face hardships, they fantasize about superheroes coming to save them. That’s why superhero-themed movies are so popular, because people are struggling with various difficulties in reality and yearn for salvation, hoping for justice to prevail. In movies, they find solace, even if reality leaves them helpless.

At the very least, they can imagine.

Lin Fan is no longer an ordinary person. He has hundreds of billions in funds and a billion-dollar conglomerate. He can become the type of superhero that ordinary people fantasize about.

In the world of superheroes, two main protagonists, Batman and Iron Man, are super-rich. They use their money—one dressing as a bat, the other donning iron armor—to support the strong and weak, maintaining world peace. Their fabulous gear is all funded by money and high-tech. Naturally, high-tech development needs money.

Lin Fan never considered becoming Batman or Iron Man, dressing in armor to fight crime on the streets at night. They are true Holy Fathers, whereas Lin Fan is not. He just follows his heart; when faced with injustice, if he can do something about it, he does it as an instinct.

This isn’t being a Holy Father, but something every good and decent person would do.

What’s more, fighting against the Wei Family is also part of a system task. When the Wei Family wanted to dominate Yun City’s underworld, the system assigned Lin Fan a task requiring him to unify Yun City’s underground.

It’s fair to say that with this system task, Lin Fan was bound to provoke the Wei Family.

As for Yun City Music Academy, Lin Fan helped Liu Mengjie, indirectly sabotaging the Wei Family’s plan.

Wei Jisheng said, "Mr. Lin is overestimating himself, thinking you can help them, but you’re actually struggling now. Isn’t it time for Mr. Lin to consider securing himself first?"

The sarcasm in Wei Jisheng’s tone was evident.

Daring to go against the Wei Family was truly asking for trouble.

Lin Fan said, "You’re right, I guess I did step on the Wei Family’s sore spot this time, incurring their revenge."

Wei Jisheng said, "Mr. Lin had better clarify, the incident happening in your company has nothing to do with the Wei Family. I’m here because our Wei Family happens to be able to help you."

Lin Fan asked, "What if I agree to your conditions?"

Wei Jisheng chuckled, "I don’t see that Mr. Lin has room to refuse unless Mr. Lin truly wants a fight to the bitter end, then I can’t help it."

Lin Fan said, "Well, let me analyze it with you, Mr. Wei. First, your condition is that I don’t obstruct your community group buying project. But as you said, the impediment to your ground promotion is from Yun City’s underground. From what I know, the current leader of Yun City’s underground is Li Zhen. What’s it got to do with me?"

This was using their own logic against them. Since the Wei Family wouldn’t admit to being behind the Celestial Aviation incident, Lin Fan wouldn’t admit to being the mastermind behind Yun City’s underground.

Wei Jisheng sneered, "Does Mr. Lin truly not know who he is?"

Lin Fan retorted, "Was the airport bomb incident orchestrated by the Wei Family? I’m sure Mr. Wei knows this very well."

"You!" Wei Jisheng was at a loss for words.

Lin Fan smiled, "Moreover, about Yun City Music Academy, you want me to stay out of it. In reality, I only helped my friend a little. The actual decision was made by the board members who rejected your Wei Family’s acquisition. So in summary, I’m not really able to help the Wei Family with anything. If Mr. Wei wants to negotiate terms with me, I’m afraid you’ve found the wrong person."

Wei Jisheng scoffed, "If it weren’t for Mr. Lin, do you think those foolish board members would have rejected our Wei Family’s acquisition of Yun City Music Academy’s mess? This event has already happened, so I won’t hold it against Mr. Lin. What I want is for Mr. Lin to stay out of Yun City Music Academy’s affairs in the future."

Lin Fan shook his head decisively, "I’m sorry, I can’t comply. My friend is a principal at this school, and my sister studies here and hasn’t graduated yet. For them, I can’t turn a blind eye."

Wei Jisheng’s face turned sullen, "Mr. Lin refuses to appreciate my offer. Let me be blunt with you, your Celestial Aviation’s current crisis can only be helped by our Wei Family. If you don’t agree to our terms, be prepared for the worst!"

Lin Fan smiled slightly, "Is that so? Your Wei Family is so powerful, why is that? If there’s no bomb at the airport, I don’t need the Wei Family to do anything. If there is a bomb at the airport, how can your Wei Family help me? Do you know where the bomb is located? How would you know where the bomb is, unless you planted it?"

Wei Jisheng: "..."

Outrageous, he almost fell into this kid’s trap.

"So naive, if there really were a bomb, of course, it wasn’t planted by our Wei Family. By saying we can help, I mean that even if a bomb is found, I can ensure your safety, as if there was no bomb at all. This is our capability, which you, the richest man in Yun City, do not have!"

Lin Fan said, "No need, the airport is not going to find any bomb."

What did you say? Wei Jisheng’s face changed.
