C478 Surprise
Of course, not all the people who came here now were here to rent a boat. There were very few people with this purpose.
On the contrary, many families had sent their own disciples here after the Cao Family had leaked the news.
Especially those small families with average strength. This was an extremely rare opportunity for them.
There was no need to say much about the strength of Cao Family, and the patriarch, Cao Lin, loved his only daughter dearly. If she really became a son-in-law, how many years would she have to struggle for?
Don't think that only the loser would covet the beauty of the wealthy. Rich Second Generation was also divided into different grades. In the eyes of the disciples of big families, those with ordinary strength were no different from the loser.
Although they all knew that the Cao Family must have considered matching families first, this wasn't absolute after all. What if Cao Lin's daughter took a fancy to them? It was hard to say whether they would like each other or not.
Therefore, they were in the midst of all kinds of utilitarian purposes. Today, there were disciples from big families and small families who came to the manor of Cao Family. It was bustling with guests and friends.
When Lin Fan and the others walked into the manor, they immediately attracted everyone's attention.
The reason was that the three girls beside Lin Fan were too eye-catching.
Xia Xuan did not say much. She was already beautiful to begin with, and she did not make any sense at all.
Lin Xianer was not the slightest bit inferior. She even had the halo effect of a big star.
And Isa Ivy was also similarly devastatingly beautiful in the aesthetic sense of the eastern people. She even had a foreign style that the Eastern beauties did not have, and her figure was even more explosive.
With the appearance of these three beautiful girls at the same time, the entire manor's women were instantly eclipsed.
It was like when the bright moon was in the sky, all the starlight was no longer dazzling.
Most of the people who came here were young men. They had come with the purpose of marrying the Cao Family. It was said that the eldest daughter of the Cao Family was also very beautiful.
But no matter how beautiful she was, she couldn't be compared to these three girls in front of her. She was no longer beautiful. It was like a goddess had descended.
Cao Lin had run down with a joyful expression, but when he saw this scene, his face turned bitter.
What was Young Master Lin doing? Bringing three beautiful girls here, wasn't this just ruining the place?
How could he let him 'sell' his daughter like this?
Right now, the gazes of all the men present were fixed on these three ridiculously beautiful girls. Even Cao Lin himself was filled with astonishment in his heart.
Compared to his own daughter, he could only helplessly admit that there was no comparison at all.
Cao Lin tidied his clothes, calmed his mood, and walked in front of Lin Fan. He said very respectfully: "Young Master Lin, it is my honor to welcome you to my humble home. I am the patriarch of the Cao Family, Cao Lin. Welcome to my humble home."
"You know me?" Lin Fan asked curiously.
Ever since Lin Fan came out of the family, he had been living in seclusion. The information about his identity had been carefully disguised. Until now, no one had been able to see through his true identity.
He didn't expect that he would be recognized by the Cao Family with just a glance. As for this Cao Lin in front of him, Lin Fan didn't have any impression of him.
"Young Master Lin must be joking. How can I not know you? Your father has done me a great favor in the past." Cao Lin said with a smile.
Lin Fan more or less understood what he meant when he said that. It must be an old friend of his father from many years ago, so it was not strange that he could recognize him.
In fact, it was true. When Lin Fan's father was still alive, he had some kind of relationship with Cao Lin.
Cao Lin had also seen Lin Fan when he was young many times. Although Lin Fan had no impression of him now, how could Cao Lin forget Lin Fan, one of the successors of Lin's?
Initially, after Lin Fan's father passed away, Cao Lin felt that he had lost the chance to cling onto the Lin Family. He never thought that Lin Fan would appear in front of him so quietly after so many years. What was a surprise? This was the biggest surprise.
"Mister Cao, I hope that you can keep my identity a secret. Don't tell anyone about it, and don't let anyone hear about it." Lin Fan said.
Cao Lin nodded quickly. "Understood. Young Master Lin, don't worry."
The conversation between him and Lin Fan was not loud. The guests in the manor actually did not hear what he said.
However, many of them were extremely surprised to see Cao Lin treating a young man with such respect.
"Who is this man? Why is the patriarch of Cao Family treating him so respectfully?"
"I don't know, but I do know two of his friends. One of them is Lee Xiaokang of Namyang Li Family, and the other is Hee Jun of Hee's Family. Both of them have a great background!"
"Do you all think that the patriarch of Cao Family already has a candidate? Could it be that this is the future husband of Miss Cao?" Someone looked at Lin Fan and said.
"Tsk, do you have a brain? Have you ever seen a father-in-law being so respectful to his son-in-law?" Someone immediately retorted.
The appearance of Lin Fan and the others had given everyone present a great sense of crisis.
This was because most of the people who came here were disciples from small families who didn't have much strength. Compared to Hee Jun and Lee Xiaokang, they weren't even qualified to carry shoes.
Not to mention Lin Fan, who even the patriarch of Cao Family treated respectfully.
If they were to compete for the marriage alliance with the Cao Family, the disparity in their strength would be as great as the heavens. It would be better to just admit defeat and leave, which would make them look more dignified.
"Not necessarily. Perhaps the Cao Family will find a stronger major family and prepare for the marriage alliance?"
"No, that's impossible. Is there any family that is stronger than Cao Family? Even the four big families in the capital are equal to Cao Family."
"That's right. If the Cao Family found a stronger marriage partner, why would they organize this gathering? Isn't this unnecessary?"
"We have to find a way to find out their true purpose of coming here. Hey, old Wang, aren't you getting familiar with Young Master Li? Later, find an opportunity to find out more about him?"
"How am I familiar with Young Master Li? I've only seen him a few times and said a few words."
Just as everyone was guessing the purpose of Lin Fan and the others' visit, Cao Lin was also scheming in his heart.
It was unexpected that Lin Fan could appear here, but it also made him feel pleasantly surprised.
His daughter's age was about the same as Lin Fan's. It was not that big. If Lin Fan was not married yet, wouldn't that be a good opportunity for him?

Once his daughter married Lin Fan and became the wife of the Lin Family, the Cao Family would become like a rocket, and it would be difficult for them not to become stronger...
Cao Lin had made up his mind at this moment. He had to think of a way to facilitate the marriage between his daughter and Young Master Lin. This was an opportunity that he couldn't even ask for!
