This person was clearly a young master based on his appearance and it was also very clear that he was a very arrogant young master.
He didn't even bother looking at anyone else in the store when he came in, his eyes only fell onto Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao. After all, this was the only reason that he had come to this store today.
He didn't even bother investigating what kind of store this was, but when he had heard his subordinates mention that Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao had been coming to this store for two days in a row, he had immediately placed his subordinates outside. When they arrived, those subordinates had sent him this information and he had rushed over, which was why he had only arrived now.
But as soon as he did arrive, the people outside the store had immediately made way for him as well because he was someone who was famous in this city.
This young master's name was He Yong and he was the son of the Harmony City City Lord.
As Harmony City was jointly established by the twelve great factions, naturally none of these factions could allow one faction to rule over the entire city. However, since the investment for this city was split twelve ways, it also meant that not a single faction had invested enough that they would send resources to help manage the city.
The problem was that this was a city that they had jointly established, which meant that this was still a big issue of reputation. If this city wasn't properly managed, it would be a slap to their collective faces, so they couldn't just leave it alone either.
Since this city wasn't worth managing personally and they couldn't just ignore it, they chose a very simple solution of using a third party to manage this city.
The third party that they chose was the person who was now the City Lord of Harmony City.
This was a situation that was similar to Qing Ao's Kunlun Mountains.
The City Lord of Harmony City was someone who once was and still was considered a renowned expert, so the twelve great factions had jointly presented him with Harmony City as his territory.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOf course, the City Lord of Harmony City wasn't someone who was as strong as Qing Ao, so it was more of he was hired by the twelve great factions to manage Harmony City for them. But he had his pride, so it was announced as the twelve great factions presenting him this territory.
Still no matter what the relationship between the City Lord and the twelve great factions was, there was no doubt that he was a very influential person in Harmony City.
So while in Harmony City, there was no one that dared to mess with his son which had created his arrogant personality.
Once he came into the store, He Yong immediately came over to where Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao were. He didn't immediately say anything as he looked at them without holding back at all. There was a clear lewd look that was in his eyes as they roamed all over his body.
Then after he was satisfied, he revealed a fake smile and said, "Fei Fei, Tao Tao, if you two were coming here, you should have told me. I had some free time, I could have come and accompanied you."
Both Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao had slight looks of disdain in their eyes, but they had been properly trained since they were young, so they were able to hold themselves back.
Still, that didn't mean that there was a reason for them to talk to him.
He Yong didn't mind this since he was already used to it. Of course, that was what he displayed on the surface. Deep down, he was really thinking, "Just keep acting tough. Once you're mine, I'll properly train the two of you."
Since he wasn't able to talk to the two of them directly, he went to find another method to show off.
He Yong looked around and could figure out the general gist of what was happening based on the information that his subordinates had provided him with before.
He Yong looked at Lin Fan for a bit and while thinking that he was handsome, he didn't see him as a threat since Lin Fan was nothing more than an owner of a pet shop. Compared to him, who was the son of the City Lord, Lin Fan was nothing.
With this thought in mind, He Yong gave a snap to Lin Fan before saying, "Owner, how many training spots does your store offer each day?"
Lin Fan looked at He Yong for a bit before calmly saying, "There's currently twenty spots being offered today."
He Yong gave a nod before giving another snap and saying, "I'll take all of them."
Without even waiting for confirmation from Lin Fan, He Yong turned to the crowd and said, "I've just booked all the spots today, I think that no one minds, do they?"
Once again, without waiting for anyone to say anything, He Yong turned to Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao to say, "Ladies, if there are any pets that you want to train, just leave it to me. I'll give you all the spots that I have, so you can train whichever pets you…"
But before he could finish, Lin Fan cut in with, "Our store only gives each customer one training spot and they will only receive that spot if they win the lottery draw."
Everyone fell silent when they heard this, the tension in the air was almost palpable.
The people that had been standing around the counter couldn't help taking a step back.
They had all allowed He Yong to do what he wanted because of his father. The City Lord was actually quite famous for being protective of his son, so no one wanted to offend He Yong over such a small matter.
However, Lin Fan didn't seem to understand this simple concept…
No one wanted to be caught up in this mess, so they all tried to avoid making eye contact with He Yong or Lin Fan.
He Yong turned around to look at Lin Fan with a smile on his face, but based on the look in his eyes and the vein that was pulsating on his forehead, it was clear what he was truly thinking.
He looked at Lin Fan for a second and he realized why he didn't like him from the moment he saw him. This person was different from everyone else who he met, he was one of those people who didn't fear him, but rather looked down on him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe might have accepted it if Lin Fan was like those other people, having backgrounds and abilities that far surpassed him, but he couldn't accept this kind of gaze from what he considered to be a lowly pet store owner.
Still, He Yong didn't lose his temper right away as he calmly said, "I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you correctly. Did you just say that you won't give me all the training spots for your store?"
Lin Fan's expression didn't even change as he calmly looked right into He Yong's eyes and said, "Yes, you heard correctly. I said that our store only gives each customer one training spot and they are chosen through the lottery."
The vein on He Yong's forehead was throbbing even more when he heard this. There was something that he wanted to say, but the look on his face almost made it seem like he was choking on his words.
Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao couldn't help slightly knitting their brows when they saw this.
They could tell that Lin Fan wasn't normal because of this store, but that didn't mean that there was a reason for him to offend the City Lord through his son like this.
Mao Tao leaned over the counter and said to Lin Fan in a low voice, "Owner Lin, you might not know who this is, but this is the son of the City Lord, He Yong. You should know who the City Lord is and what position he has in Harmony City. He is someone who is very protective of his son, so you don't need to offend him over this small matter."
Qiao Yi Fei then added, "Win the war and not the battle. A true man wouldn't be petty over these small things."
Seeing how close Qiao Yi Fei and Mao Tao were acting with Lin Fan, He Yong's rage reached another level.
Without even caring about the two girls, he came up right to the counter and pointed his finger in Lin Fan's face as he said, "You, do you know what kind of person you are offending? You're nothing more than a lowly pet store owner and you want to embarrass me in front of everyone like this! Know your place!"
Lin Fan calmly swatted the finger out of his face and said, "Dear customer, if you don't wish to follow the rules of our store, I will be forced to eject you from our store and you will be banned from ever entering this store."
He Yong's voice once again reached another level as he roared out, "You want to throw me out?!"
Then he raised his right hand in the shape of a fist, bringing it back before sending it out at Lin Fan's face while roaring, "Let's see if you have that ability!"
