Chapter 188: Chapter 30 Fake History Chapter 188: Chapter 30 Fake History “Fake history?”
Zhou Duanyun furrowed his brows:
“What do you mean, there can be fake history?”
“History, in essence, is just what has already happened.
In the mouth of Arrogance, though they speak of making history, what they’re actually conveying is what should have happened in the future.”
Zhou Duanyun nodded, he had already noticed this.
The withered old man from Arrogance, he always blabbers about history, but it’s not the history that has already taken place, rather the future that hasn’t happened yet but supposedly should.
He had always firmly believed that Arrogance had someone higher up, someone else was directing Arrogance.
But he didn’t dare mention this in front of Arrogance.
That was a terrifying old man, his power and influence were so great that he could easily crush any person.
He also didn’t know what Arrogance was busy with all day, what the intentions were, as if they weren’t murdering, they were on their way to making a murder happen.
...
However, he didn’t care about these things, as Arrogance had given him what he had long dreamt of.
He wasn’t grateful to Arrogance because it was something he should have had by right, it was just that working for Arrogance...
he could gain even more.
“I understand what you mean now,” Zhou Duanyun got it:
“You want to fabricate an event out of thin air and ensure it truly happens, so for the future, that event will be history.”
“Exactly, I need to not only ensure it happens but also make sure it must happen, that’s what makes it a real piece of history.”
“Then how can you be sure that Lin Xian will disrupt it?” Zhou Duanyun asked:
“He’s very cautious now, even if you fabricate a piece of history, he might not bother with you, and might just ignore you outright to protect himself.”
“He will.”
Ji Lin walked over to the dining table, looking at the two printed chat logs laid out on it...
Both of these chat logs were fabricated, saucy messages Tang Xin had supposedly sent to other men at 00:42:
“If Lin Xian finds out in advance that someone else will die on the streets at 00:42 just like Xu Yun and Tang Xin, with Lin Xian’s personality, he won’t just stand by.”
Zhou Duanyun chuckled:
“What if he isn’t that kind-hearted?”
“This isn’t about being kind-hearted…” Ji Lin shook his head:
“We want to catch him, and he wants to catch us.
Give him a chance to uncover us, and he definitely won’t let it pass.”
...
MX Company, 20th floor, Lin Xian’s office.
He was searching on his computer for the research institute where Tang Xin worked, hoping to find information about the institute’s boss.
He came up empty-handed.
After much consideration, he decided to change his approach.
Tang Xin had said that the person who invited her to East Sea was once Professor Xu Yun’s mentor; it might be worthwhile to check that lead.
Lin Xian began searching for “Professor Xu Yun’s teacher” as a keyword.
Wow, the search results were numerous, with many people online claiming to be Professor Xu Yun’s teacher and many had even accepted media interviews.
Elementary school teachers, middle school teachers, high school teachers, university teachers...
an endless multitude.
“These are obviously just riding the coattails of his fame.”
Looking through them, he found no useful information.
Lin Xian rested his chin on his hand, thinking that the information online was still too chaotic, it was hard to find anything useful, he should be more targeted.
“Got it.”@@@@
He opened up Professor Xu Yun’s profile, beginning to examine his life experiences.
This was officially published, 100% trustworthy.
Professor Xu Yun didn’t complete his undergraduate studies at East Sea University but at a university in the northwest.
“He...”
Chu Anqing scratched her head, feeling that it wasn’t appropriate to speak outright about her aunt’s issue in this setting, as it might make Lin Xian uncomfortable:
“My parents seem to want to set you up with someone.”
“Oh, haha.” Lin Xian laughed:
“Please thank them for their concern, but I’ve never actually been set up by anyone before.”
“You’ve never been in a matchmaking situation?” Chu Anqing’s gossiping spirit was piqued.
“No, I just graduated last year, and I’m not even living in my hometown.
I have no relatives here in East Sea.”
“Then, then, then, what kind of girl do you like?”
Chu Anqing leaned in closer:
“Do you like, you know, cool girls?” she thought of her untamed aunt.
“Cool girls?” The first image that came to Lin Xian’s mind was CC; he turned to look at Chu Anqing who bore the same resemblance to CC:
“It’s okay, cool girls do have their own charm.”
“Cough cough.”
Chu Anqing coughed twice:
“I mean...
the kind who likes racing, has a bit of a temper, loves to argue with others, and snaps at people at the drop of a hat.”
Lin Xian recalled CC’s self-righteous and rebellious demeanor.
Ah, that can be quite annoying, always acting mysterious.
But looking at the adorable Chu Anqing batting her eyes in front of him, he somehow found CC, who bore the same look, to be quite endearing:
“It’s...
not bad, actually.
I don’t pay too much attention to these things; as long as the person is kind-hearted, it’s all good.”
Chu Anqing’s heart skipped a beat.
This!
She and Senior Lin Xian really seemed to be a perfect match!
Could Senior Lin Xian actually be into this type?
“Found it, it’s here.”
While Chu Anqing was having her moment of revelation, Lin Xian had successfully located Xu Yun’s doctoral graduation photo.
On the page he had opened...
in the middle was a blurry, yellowed, and very dated photo.
It was a doctoral graduation group photo with not too many people in it.
In the center, taking the spotlight, was a young man laughing heartily, whom Lin Xian recognized instantly—it was Xu Yun.
Beneath the photo, in the name section, the central name was indeed Xu Yun.
No mistake;
this was definitely the right find.
And behind Xu Yun, with a hand on Xu Yun’s shoulder, was an elderly man with white hair and a kind smile.
He wasn’t looking at the camera but at Xu Yun, his gaze filled with joy and pride...
as affectionate as one looking at their own child.
This must be Xu Yun’s mentor.
Lin Xian looked at the name section at the bottom of the page and quickly found the mentor’s name.
His name was perfectly aligned above Xu Yun’s, just like their positions in the photo.
The name was three simple characters—
[Ji Xinshui]
