Chapter 23: Registering on Liuli Island
While Li Fan was lost in thought, a slightly chubby young man approached him not far away.
The young man patted Li Fan's shoulder, somewhat familiar: "Brother, you seem unfamiliar. May I ask what position you hold in the Great Li? Or are you a wealthy merchant from another region?"
Li Fan swatted the young man's hand off his shoulder and looked at him coldly, saying nothing.
The chubby youth felt like he was being stared at by a venomous snake and shivered.
Though he felt a bit embarrassed for being scared by just a gaze, the chubby youth was quite perceptive. Li Fan seemed ordinary, but there was an aura of authority about him, and it was obvious he had been in a high position for many years.
He's no ordinary person! The chubby youth quickly reached this conclusion and wisely left.
Others saw this and understood that Li Fan wasn't very approachable. From then on, nobody tried to strike up a conversation with him.
In the flickering light, the voices of the crowd gradually faded and everyone fell asleep.
A quiet night passed.
