Siheyuan: With the system in hand, the world is mine

These five people were none other than the five assassins Lin Yi, Lin Er, Lin San, Lin Si and Lin Wu that Wang Haoran exchanged through the system last night.

The reason why Lin Er, Lin San, Lin Si, and Lin Wu appeared here was because Wang Haoran directly dropped them off near this yard on the way to the meeting, waiting for Wang Haoran's instructions to appear again.

Lin Yi was originally sleeping soundly in the courtyard, and he appeared here because Wang Haoran used brain waves to tell him the route here.

At this moment, Brother Hu and his men, who were originally shocked that the well-trained Lin Yi and his men were Wang Haoran's subordinates, were even more surprised when they heard Lin Yi and his men call Wang Haoran "Young Master". They could even fit an egg in their mouths.

If Lin Yi and his companions were simply Wang Haoran's subordinates, Brother Hu and the others might not be so shocked. They would just think that Lin Yi and his companions were retired soldiers who were taken under Wang Haoran's command halfway, or that they were trained by Wang Haoran himself.

But the appearance of the two "young masters" was completely different. Brother Hu and others immediately guessed in their minds that Wang Haoran might be the heir of some big family in the country, and someone in the family holds a high position in the country.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to send such powerful subordinates to Wang Haoran.

Thinking of this, Brother Hu and the others immediately looked at Cai Weizheng, who had followed Wang Haoran the longest. Their eyes were full of expectation, and the meaning was self-evident.

Cai Weizhen was also in a daze at this moment. He seemed to know what was in Brother Hu's and the others' eyes. Cai Weizhen kept shaking his head, indicating that he didn't know.

Indeed, he knew what the situation was, because he had followed Wang Haoran for so long and had never heard that Wang Haoran had any other hidden identity.

All we know is that Wang Haoran has a younger sister and his parents have passed away, and we know nothing else.

When Brother Hu and others received the reply, their eyes were full of disappointment. They thought that even Cai Weizheng, who had followed Wang Haoran for so long, didn't know about it. It seemed that Wang Haoran was hiding it quite well!

The more they guessed, the more scared Brother Hu and his friends became. Even the way they looked at Wang Haoran became different from before.

At first they thought that even if there were big shots behind Wang Haoran, they only thought that those big shots and Wang Haoran were just partners, and never thought that they had such a close relationship with Wang Haoran.

To the extent that they were simply loyal to Wang Haoran because he helped them make money, now they are not only loyal to Wang Haoran, but they are also thinking more about how to cling to Wang Haoran's thigh so as not to be kicked away by Wang Haoran.

In order to hold on to Wang Haoran's thighs tightly, they even made up their minds to complete the tasks given by Wang Haoran well and not make any mistakes.

If Wang Haoran knew that Brother Hu and the others had no idea what they were thinking, he would definitely cry out in injustice: "I'm really not a descendant of a big family, I'm just the son of a martyr!"

··········

Wang Haoran looked at Lin Yi and the other five people kneeling on one knee in front of him with a look of astonishment. The corner of his mouth could not help but twitch a few times, and he secretly complained in his heart: "I clearly told Lin Yi before that he didn't need to kneel in the future! Now, in front of so many people, it really makes me embarrassed!"

However, Wang Haoran did not know the reason.

In fact, Lin Yi always kept in mind what Wang Haoran said. He knew that Wang Haoran hated to see others kneeling to him.

The reason why he deliberately did this was actually to secretly retaliate against Wang Haoran for disturbing his beautiful dream.

Poor Lin Er to Lin Wu and others had no idea that Wang Haoran didn't like others kneeling.

The reason why they followed Lin Yi and knelt on one knee without hesitation was because after seeing them, Lin Yi made up a lie, claiming that Wang Haoran particularly liked people kneeling down to him in public.

Since Lin Yi was released before them and had contact with Wang Haoran first, the four of them believed what Lin Yi said without a doubt. They took it for granted that Lin Yi learned about this special "hobby" through his interactions with Wang Haoran, so they all obediently did as they were told.

At this time, Wang Haoran did not speculate too much about the deeper meaning of it. He simply thought that maybe Lin Yi had neglected his instructions for a moment.

Although he felt a little embarrassed, he quickly said, "Stand up! Don't kneel down so easily next time."

"Okay, young master." After getting the answer, Lin jumped up from his seat in an instant, as agile as a cheetah.

At the same time, Lin Er and others were not to be outdone, and they stood up one after another.

However, at this moment, when everyone heard Wang Haoran's words "Don't kneel down at every turn", a trace of doubt involuntarily flashed through everyone's mind.

Lin Yi was very sharp and observant, and he immediately noticed something strange about Lin Er and the others.

He lowered his voice and reminded softly: "Master may be a little embarrassed, don't take it to heart, just do as I say."

After hearing this, Lin Er and others were stunned at first, and then nodded thoughtfully.

Although they still felt that something was not right about the situation, they did not question it too much out of trust in Lin Yi.

Lin Yi suddenly appeared and walked behind Wang Haoran as fast as the wind.

He unceremoniously pushed aside Cai Weizhen and several others who were surrounding Wang Haoran, and then stood firmly.

Then he stood up straight, with his feet shoulder-width apart, his hands naturally behind his back, and his eyes scanning the front sharply and alertly.

Seeing this, Lin Er and others followed suit and quickly followed, lining up in the same neat and uniform manner on the side and behind Wang Haoran.

At this moment, they were like a well-trained bodyguard team, exuding a majestic aura that no one dared to offend easily.

As for Cai Weizhen and others who were suddenly pushed away, they did not show much dissatisfaction or protest.

Perhaps they were frightened by the atmosphere created by the postures of Lin Yi and others, or perhaps they realized that it was not appropriate to cause trouble at this moment, they just silently stepped aside and stood quietly.

For a moment, the originally noisy conference room became silent and you could hear a pin drop.

Wang Haoran felt extremely embarrassed when facing this scene, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

He cursed in his heart: "What the hell is Lin Yi doing! Is he drunk? Why does he act like I'm a big boss..."

Although Wang Haoran was thinking this in his heart, he finally decided not to delve into the behavior of Lin Yi and others.

Because in his opinion, these people might really only act like that out of concern for his own safety.

At this moment, the whole scene was so quiet that it made people feel a little uncomfortable. One could even hear the rustling sound of the breeze blowing through the leaves.

While Wang Haoran was secretly thinking about how to cleverly change this slightly awkward situation, he slowly glanced at everyone present.

At this moment, when his eyes met Lin Yi's, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to his mind and an idea came into being.

However, at the same time, when Lin Yi met Wang Haoran's meaningful gaze, he couldn't help but feel a chill rising from his spine, and all the hairs on his body stood up as if they were electrocuted.

An ominous feeling came over me, as if something bad was about to happen.

Sure enough, Wang Haoran opened his mouth and broke the suffocating silence.

He stared at Lin Yi with a reproachful look on his face and said in a serious tone, "Lin Yi, didn't I tell you before? I told you not to kneel down all the time! And you even made such a big scene this time, what on earth do you want to do?"

In fact, when Wang Haoran was about to speak, Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat and he secretly thought something was wrong.

After he listened to everything Wang Haoran said, he turned around and looked at Lin Er and others beside him. Their ferocious eyes seemed to be spitting fire and they wanted to rush up and eat him alive. He felt even more disheartened.

He kept muttering to himself, "It's over... It's over... It's completely over now!"

Lin Yi's heart skipped a beat when he thought of the serious consequences he might face, but he quickly comforted himself, thinking that things might be able to turn around and he should be able to save the current situation.

So he quickly adjusted his facial expression, pretending to be extremely innocent, and said to Wang Haoran pitifully: "Master, please don't blame me!"

"Yesterday you gave me so many important things to do at once that I was so busy that I forgot some of them."

After hearing this, Wang Haoran frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then slowly nodded to show his approval: "Well... okay, forget it this time, and don't do it again. You have to be more careful in the future and don't be so careless."

When Lin Yi saw that Wang Haoran believed his words so easily, he was secretly delighted. At the same time, he naively thought that Lin Er and others must be as easy to fool as the young master.

However, when he cautiously cast his gaze towards Lin Er and the others, he was instantly devastated by the look in their eyes that said "Do you think we will believe your nonsense?"

It was not until then that Lin Yi realized that he was daydreaming.

Then, in order to avoid physical pain, Lin Yi still did not give up and continued to explain to everyone in a low voice.

It’s a pity that Lin Er and several others are also mid-level assassins like Lin Yi, and they know each other’s abilities and personality traits very well.

They knew very well that with their professionalism, it was impossible for them to forget something like this easily.

The little tricks that Lin Yi used could only fool young masters who were inexperienced in the world. It was simply a pipe dream to expect him to deceive experienced veterans like them.

Therefore, in the face of Lin Yi's endless explanation, Lin Er and others remained unmoved, with no ripples on their faces. They even gave Lin Yi meaningful looks at the same time, as if to say, "You just wish you good luck."

Seeing this, Lin Yi finally gave up struggling completely and put on an attitude of "nothing to lose, no matter what".

His nonchalant expression made Lin Er and the others so angry that they wanted to rush up to him and teach him a lesson.
