Chapter 94: Turning the Trap Against Its Maker!

The system rarely offered such a considerate reminder:

It had never felt so humane.

“All right, then I’ll exchange for the mind-guard card.”

Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Fan immediately used the shop to redeem a mind-guard card.

He needed it desperately.

From now on, he would not have to fear seduction, nor worry about being sweet-talked and mentally manipulated by schemers with hidden motives.

A man like him, with only middling resolve and average learning, was all too easy to sway in the hands of highly intelligent elites. With this, he would no longer be afraid of being led astray.

He had already seen enough news to know that even wealthy men could be swindled out of shocking sums.

There were countless cases of the children of rich families being lured by investment scams and fraudulent schemes, only to lose everything in the end.

Such stories were everywhere.

He had even worried that he might one day fall prey to one of those honey traps, so when he had time he would read a little psychology. But that was still no match for a practical tool card.

A prompt sounded in his mind as the card took effect, and ten million wealth points were deducted to exchange for the mind-guard card. The item would last permanently.

After the card activated, Lin Fan truly felt his mind become much clearer and calmer.

“President Lin, I won’t disturb you any further. The two of them still have a few special talents they can show off, so please enjoy them.”

Shi Jie’s words pulled Lin Fan back from his daze.

“Oh? Good. Then I’d like to see what’s so special about these twins.”

Lin Fan nodded along, putting on a convincing show of satisfaction.

Seeing this, Shi Jie also smiled with satisfaction, said nothing more, and turned to leave the office.

“That bastard. I gave you so much money, and you still betrayed me! So you’ve been bought off, have you? Then let me see exactly what kind of tricks you’re all trying to play!”

Watching Shi Jie’s retreating figure, Lin Fan’s anger burned hot.

He had left Shi Jie a small share of the company, and with that share alone, Shi Jie was earning well over ten million a year.

He had never imagined the man would bite the hand that fed him and become a dog for Su Qianlong.

“Hello, President Lin. My name is Gao Xiaoqin.”

“My name is Gao Xiaofeng. We should introduce ourselves first…”

At that moment, the twin sisters began their introductions.

But Lin Fan’s attention was not on them.

Though these two were consummate beauties, with figures and looks so exceptional they were worth a fortune, it was obvious Su Qianlong had spared no expense in plotting against him.

Their bearing was almost otherworldly, lovely as fairies.

Either one of them could outshine every goddess he knew. Their figures were the kind that made any man’s thoughts drift the moment he glanced at them.

A waist slender enough to clasp in one hand, long pale legs, and a face of such sweet, innocent allure it seemed both pure and seductive at once; naturally beautiful, enchanting enough to outshine the moon and shame flowers into hiding. And then there was that breathtaking swell of curves that instantly seized the eye. Even Lin Fan, in his composed state, could not help but glance twice.

And these were twins, identical in every feature.

If not for the system’s enhancement of his constitution and the added protection of the mind-guard card, he might have already been eager to do something improper with them.

Still, what he was really thinking about was how to expose them.

“I’ve got it. There should be a hypnosis card in the shop. I can use it to make them confess everything while under hypnosis.”

Lin Fan had spotted the hypnosis card in the system shop and immediately had an idea.

Unfortunately, the hypnosis card also lasted only two hours.

Luckily, the system really did have such an outrageously devious item, or else he would have been helpless.

But just then, the system gave another reminder.

“Ding! Any item card in the shop can only be used on one person at a time. If the host wishes to use it on both twins simultaneously, two cards must be exchanged.”

At that, the corner of Lin Fan’s mouth twitched. He had never expected such a bizarre rule.

Still, it was only a little money, no more than pocket change.

Without hesitation, he spent two hundred thousand wealth points to exchange for two hypnosis cards.

A prompt sounded as the two cards were deducted, and the item would last for two hours, with the targets set as the twin sisters.

The sisters were still in the middle of their introductions when they suddenly stopped short, their eyes becoming strangely vacant as they stared blankly at Lin Fan.

“Now I order you two to sit on the sofa.”

Lin Fan tried speaking.

As soon as he finished, the two women obediently walked to the sofa and sat down like robots.

“It really works!”

Seeing the effect, Lin Fan was so delighted he could hardly close his mouth.

With this sycophantic system, he truly was invincible.

But he had no intention of doing anything wicked. These twin sisters might be rare treasures, but they did not belong to him.

If something was not his, he would never be greedy for it.

He had climbed up from being an ordinary person, and he still believed a little in fate.

Some things, no matter how much scheming went into obtaining them, would ultimately slip through one’s fingers.

What he wanted was to discover Su Qianlong’s purpose in targeting him, and to record the interrogation as evidence for a future counterattack.

With that in mind, Lin Fan first propped up his phone nearby to record.

Then he took out the anti-eavesdropping device given to him by the security department, and after checking the two women’s phones, he connected to them and indeed found surveillance software hidden in the background.

But he did not delete it.

Deleting it would only expose him.

After that, under the watch of the camera, he began the interrogation.

“Who sent you two to seduce me? What is their purpose? Besides the two of you, who else is helping you?”

As soon as he finished, Gao Xiaoqin, the elder sister, confessed everything.

“We’re mistresses kept by Su Qianlong. He sent us to seduce you because he wanted us to brainwash you and then control your mind, turning you into a puppet. His goal is to seize all the assets you possess.”

“Besides Su Qianlong, Bai Jiahao and Su Mingxuan are also involved. Our intermediary was Shi Jie…”

After hearing this, Lin Fan’s anger surged.

“These three dogs really never give up, do they? They’re actually eyeing my money! Thank goodness I have the system with me, or I would have ended up ruined in your hands!”

“But you certainly never expected I’d turn your own scheme against you. Since you like plots and tricks so much, I’ll play along to the end!”

Lin Fan thought it over darkly. Once he came to himself, he asked a few more questions and learned that the two people who had been following him were also arranged by Su Qianlong, confirming Su Qianlong as the mastermind.

But Bai Jiahao also had a plan to deal with him. He had hired several trained fighters, waiting for an opportunity to ambush him and beat him into crippling injury.

After all the questions were finished, Lin Fan finally put away his phone in satisfaction and ended the hypnosis.

The interrogation had lasted more than ten minutes. Once the hypnosis lifted, the two women came back to themselves and looked at him in confusion.

“President Lin, may I ask whether you are satisfied with us?” Gao Xiaoqin asked.

She did not know why the two of them were sitting on the sofa, and though her mind still felt a little foggy, her acting remained flawless.
