"So that's it!" Lin Han suddenly realized after hearing it. At that time, Xiaoxiang did stand up to stop him from hurting herself.

But this was not what he wanted. It was Ling Zaitian who forced him to do it. Normally, he would never do such a thing. After all, he was not a masochist.

Lin Han shrugged helplessly, "It depends on the situation. If someone threatens me with someone else's life, then I can't do anything about it. And if it's your life, then I can't do anything about it. Do you have any good ideas to recommend?"

"I..." Xiaoxiang pursed her lips and thought hard for a while, but couldn't think of a good idea.

"And I'm not stupid. I didn't cripple both of my hands. At least one of my hands remained. That person didn't see the problem."

Seeing that she was speechless for a long time, Lin Han shrugged and continued.

"But he almost killed you! Do you know how scared I was?"

"I don't know, I fainted at that time." Lin Han pursed his lips and sighed helplessly.

"You..." Xiaoxiang didn't know whether Lin Han was deliberately making her angry or what, but she was angry anyway.

"You don't have a better method. Do you want me to give up those people's lives?" Lin Han tilted his head, looked at her curiously, and asked.

"Of course not. I'm not that kind of person. It's just that sometimes I can't save others. And there are people who care about them, but doesn't anyone care about you? If you save them, who will save you?"

Xiaoxiang lowered her head, bit her lips, and her body trembled as she sobbed.

Things have come to this point, Lin Han naturally understood what she meant.

Lin Han reached out and pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly.

"I know. I won't do anything rash in the future and will ask for your opinion. But many times it's not my choice.

And I have no worries. I have lost my hands, so you can be my hands, how about that? "

Hearing Lin Han's words, Xiaoxiang's body trembled, then nodded slightly, "Yes! I promise you!"

And just when they made the appointment, they didn't know that there was someone standing at the door and heard what they said through the door.

Lu Siyu sighed in disappointment, but immediately felt relieved, turned around and left quietly.

The next morning, Lin Han and Xiaoxiang went downstairs. Lu Siyu and Lu Tiegu were also downstairs, and they were about to ask someone to call them down to have dinner together.

"Uh! I seemed to be drunk yesterday and said something I shouldn't have said. Sorry, just pretend you didn't hear it. I always talk nonsense when I'm drunk. Don't take it seriously, and don't take it to heart!"

Lu Tiegu scratched the back of his head and explained apologetically.

"It's okay, we understand!"

Lin Han nodded with full understanding.

"So what are you going to do next?"

After Lin Han and Xiaoxiang sat down, Lu Siyu couldn't help but ask.

"Why? You don't like us being here?"

Lin Han couldn't help but smile when he heard Lu Siyu ask this.

Of course he didn't think so, it was just a joke.

"No, it's just that I like men who have plans for the future, rather than being satisfied with the status quo."

Lu Siyu explained nonchalantly, of course, without laughing.

“That’s really harsh!”

Lin Han pursed his lips, feeling a little helpless.

"I hadn't thought about this yesterday, but from what you said, it seems like you have an idea, right? At least what do you think I should do?"

Indeed, Lu Siyu has already made arrangements.

"Let's participate in the National Treasure Appraisal Competition!" Lu Siyu suggested.

"Oh? The National Treasure Appraisal Competition? I wasn't invited."

Lin Han naturally knew about this national treasure appraisal competition, but the scale of it was very different from that of the provincial and municipal treasure appraisal competitions.

Moreover, the systems are also different. The thresholds at the provincial and municipal levels are relatively low, but the national treasure appraisal competition is different if you want to participate.

In addition to being a qualified treasure appraiser, one must also be recommended by a qualified person or invited by the organizer.

However, Lin Han was not satisfied with these two points. No one recommended him to participate in the National Treasure Appraisal Competition, and the organizer did not invite him either.

Logically speaking, as long as he could make a name for himself, everything would be fine. Lin Han had participated in many treasure appraisal competitions along the way, but the other party still did not invite him.

This shows that Lin Han’s resume is still not good enough.

This is not difficult to explain, because every time Lin Han won the treasure appraisal competition, there was some water in it, at least that was the case in the eyes of outsiders.

It’s like in the treasure appraisal competition held by the Treasure Appraisers Association, Du Rongsheng, who won the first prize, voluntarily gave up and gave the fruits of victory to Lin Han.

The same was true for the most recent match against Lu Siyu.

Because he was competing on behalf of the Ling family, his reputation naturally became even worse after Ling Zaitian's scandal was exposed and Mr. Zhong announced that Lu Siyu was the winner.

Inviting someone like him to participate in the competition would indeed cause controversy, so it is understandable that he was not invited.

"This is the invitation letter written by Mr. Zhong himself. It has his seal inside. When the time comes, you just need to take this out and the organizer will agree to let you participate in the competition."

Lu Siyu took out a letter from her pocket and placed it on the table in front of Lin Han.

"Huh? He would actually do this for me?" Lin Han was very surprised after hearing this.

After all, he and Mr. Zhong were strangers. Since he contacted him to expose Ling Zaitian's cheating, they had not been in touch, let alone met.

Even Lin Han almost forgot about this old man, but he didn't expect that Mr. Zhong was still thinking about him so much.

He was also provided with an opportunity to participate in a national treasure appraisal competition, which was really unexpected.

"He felt that the disclosure of Ling Zaitian's affairs had a negative impact on you, and he was also responsible for this matter, so he helped you do what he could."

After Lu Siyu's explanation, Lin Han nodded slightly and roughly understood.

Mr. Zhong just wanted to be able to live with a clear conscience in the future without owing favors to anyone.

But instead of giving him an invitation letter, it would be better to give him something more tangible.

Lin Han picked up the invitation letter, and there was indeed Mr. Zhong’s seal on it.

But Lin Han was still a little surprised.

"So, Mr. Zhong's influence is so great? He can actually recommend people to go there?"

He thought that Mr. Zhong was just famous in Silverstone Province and admired by thousands of people, but he didn't expect that his influence was so great that even the organizers of the National Treasure Appraisal Competition had to give him some face.

"Of course, Mr. Zhong himself is a winner of a national treasure appraisal competition, and he returned home in glory and is respected by the people of Silverstone Province.

At that time, he had won many competitions, and the older generation of treasure appraisers across the country had heard of his name to some extent.”
