Chapter 2177: See You Again, Li Yanran
Using the Ten Thousand Miles Tracking Technique to find someone's whereabouts, the closer you are, the higher the probability of detecting them.
A Heavenly Realm Martial Artist hiding someone else's aura cannot completely conceal it.
If the distance is close enough, then Lin Dong is very likely to discover the whereabouts of Li Qingcheng and Qiao Bing.
Therefore, agreeing to be Lin Tiance's best man and staying by his side would increase the chance of finding the two women.
Moreover, if he goes to be Lin Tiance's best man, the Old Patriarch of the Lin Family, and the Heavenly Realm Martial Artist Lin Sunan from Kunlun, clearly wouldn't expect it.
At that time, he could catch them off guard!
At this moment, Lin Tiance was giving out red packets to the people at the villa's entrance.
He was giving out quite a few red packets, each containing ten thousand.
Of course, for those receiving the red packets, ten thousand is nothing significant. But what they really appreciate is the celebration.
These are the newlywed red packets given by Young Master Lin Tiance.
Receiving such a red packet is indeed an honor.
In the future, no matter if it's in the financial circle, the rights layers, or the Martial Arts Circle, it becomes a topic of conversation.
Lin Tiance gave everyone present a red packet, and also some celebration candies, then went with Lin Dong, Xiao Huang, and others to the main gate of the villa.
At the villa's main gate, there stood a girl.
This person was Lin Tiance's younger female cousin, Li Yanran.
Lin Dong had quite a bit of history with Li Yanran.
Earlier, when Lin Dong was in the Southern Capital and Jianghai, Li Yanran followed her cousin Lin Tiance to the Southern Capital and Jianghai, and during that time, they had many interactions.
It was only later, as Lin Dong's power increased, their interactions became less frequent.
Moreover, due to some differences in stance, there was even less opportunity for interaction.
Seeing this familiar face made Lin Dong feel somewhat complex.
Speaking of which, previously Li Yanran had a good impression of him, which Lin Dong could certainly see.
"Cousin, you must pass three challenges to get this bride today." Qiao Xue, having come to the Capital City, also made many friends.
Among them was Li Yanran, who was now her very good best friend. The two often spent time together, and now their relationship was like sisters.
She was also one of Qiao Xue's bridesmaids at the moment.
The idea was to set up some small games for this kind of wedding event to interact and liven up the atmosphere.
Now, these three challenges were thought up by these bridesmaids.
Lin Tiance laughed and said, "Oh? Three challenges? Haha, don't even mention three challenges. Even if it's crossing a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, today I, Lin Tiance, won't even frown."
"Yanran, what does this first challenge test me on?"
Li Yanran shrugged and said, "The first challenge isn't set by me, it's set by the bride."
"I'm just following her instructions."
"I understand..." Lin Tiance hastily said with a smile, "Quickly tell me, what is the first challenge?"
Li Yanran folded her arms and then asked, "The first challenge only requires you to answer one question."
"What question?" Lin Tiance asked.
"This question was asked by the bride. She also gave me the answer, she said that only if you answer correctly can you pass and be allowed to enter." Li Yanran said.
"Ask quickly." Lin Tiance said a little impatiently.
Li Yanran then asked the question Qiao Xue had given her.
"May I ask, what is the bride's favorite food?"
This question left Lin Tiance dumbfounded for a while; he had no idea.
Although he had interacted with Qiao Xue before and often ate with her, he hadn't noticed what she liked to eat, let alone her favorite food.
However, he did remember that there was once some caviar at home, and she ate a lot.
So, he guessed directly, "Her favorite food is caviar, right?"
He thought this was the correct answer.
However, Li Yanran shook her head and said, "Wrong, wrong, try again."
"Hmm..." Lin Tiance continued, "Romanian Ruby Grapes?"
"Wrong, wrong..."
Lin Tiance frowned and mentioned a few more food items but still ended up with the wrong result.
Lin Tiance was a bit annoyed and thought to himself, what's Qiao Xue doing? Why make it difficult with this question?
Now, in front of so many people, he couldn't come up with an answer.
What should he do next?
It's not like he could just brush past it and ignore this question, right?
That would break the wedding's rules, wouldn't it?
Although people wouldn't say anything, in their hearts they would surely criticize.
At this moment, Lin Dong suddenly spoke up, "Why don't I guess? I guess it's tomatoes with scrambled eggs!"
"How could it be such an ordinary dish..." Lin Tiance shook his head. However, before he finished speaking, Li Yanran exclaimed.
"Oh my god, how did you guess that? That's amazing!"
Upon hearing Li Yanran, Lin Tiance asked, "Yanran, is the answer tomatoes with scrambled eggs?"
He found it unbelievable!
"Yes, that's the answer!" Li Yanran said, then looked at Lin Dong with a curious expression and asked, "How did you guess that?"
"I just randomly guessed since it was a guess," Lin Dong said.
"Alright then." Li Yanran nodded, then looked at Lin Tiance and said with a chuckle, "Cousin, although you didn't answer, your best man did."
"So do I let you pass this challenge?"
"Of course! Brother Dong is my best man; if he answered it, it's like I did." Lin Tiance said confidently.
"Well, alright then, you may pass." Li Yanran said, stepping aside to let everyone through.
Lin Tiance was delighted and led Lin Dong, Xiao Huang, and others into the villa's first-floor hall.
Meanwhile, Li Yanran leaned over to Lin Dong and asked, "Are you that Dong Lin?"
"You know me?" Lin Dong was puzzled; this identity of Dong Lin hadn't met Li Yanran before, so how did she know him?
"Qin Yitian mentioned you, said you are her fiancé. Truly a handsome talent..." Li Yanran said with a smile.
Lin Dong suddenly understood.
Then Li Yanran suddenly said, "Why do I have a feeling that you resemble someone I've known before?"
Lin Dong paused for a moment, then said calmly, "Miss Li, maintain dignity. Don't try to strike up a friendship with me just because I'm handsome. I have a fiancée..."
Li Yanran rolled her eyes at him, "You are really self-absorbed."
"How could I, Li Yanran, snatch a friend's man? Besides, I already have someone I like."
Saying that, she couldn't be bothered to pay attention to Lin Dong anymore, thinking he was a particularly narcissistic guy.
What Lin Dong wanted was for her to stay away from him, fearing that if they interacted too much, she might discover something.
These women, especially those familiar with Lin Dong, were all like sharp tacticians.
He truly feared that too many interactions would expose his true identity.
Especially Li Yanran, being Lin Tiance's younger female cousin, even if he knew she had a good feeling towards him, he couldn't fully trust her.
If she really knew his identity and revealed it on the spot, it would greatly hinder his next move to rescue someone.
So, he deliberately said such narcissistic things to make her naturally keep her distance.
He indeed achieved his goal.
Because of this, Li Yanran stopped paying attention to Lin Dong altogether and, afterward, didn't say another word to him.
