At dinner, Lin Fan suddenly said, "I know that I've worried you all during this time."
All of the girls had been having their own conversations, but they had also been peeking at him from time to time. It was clear that they had been concerned about Lin Fan, which was why they kept peeking at him.
Even though all of them were busy, they had made sure to come to this dinner with him.
That showed just how much they cared about him, or rather how worried they were.
It was only Mu Bao Bao who seemed a bit relieved after being assured by him this afternoon.
Lin Fan realized that he had caused them even more worry than he thought he had, even if he hadn't meant to.
Since he had caused this worry, it was his responsibility to relieve that worry.
So while they were all looking at him with concerned looks, Lin Fan said, "I want to hold a sect establishment ceremony."
All of them were shocked when they heard this, even Mu Bao Bao who seemed a bit more calm than the others couldn't help being shocked when she heard this.
All of them just looked at Lin Fan as if they couldn't understand the words that came out of his mouth. There was also a look in their eyes as if they thought that there was something wrong with his brain.
After all, only someone that had something wrong with them would say something like this.
Especially since it hadn't been that long since they had the sect recruitment that doubled as the sect opening ceremony.
So unless they were going to bring down the Love Sect and create a new sect...there was no reason for them to hold a sect establishment ceremony. And as for tearing down the Love Sect...they wouldn't allow that to happen.
The one that felt the most strongly about this was Mu Bao Bao who had been entrusted with the Love Sect's future.
Of course, Lin Fan could see the way that they were looking at him and knew what they were thinking, so he said, "It isn't what you think it is. I want to hold a sect establishment ceremony for the Love Sect."
This confused them even more as they didn't understand why the Love Sect would need one.
But that wasn't the end of their surprise as Lin Fan said, "It will be a private ceremony only for the members of the Love Sect."
All of them looked at Lin Fan with baffled looks on their faces when they heard this.
This didn't make sense at all since establishment ceremonies were for the sake of establishing the name of a sect to the other sects. This was a ceremony that should be held in front of everyone so that they could see how powerful the Love Sect was.
That would establish the prestige of the Love Sect so that no one would dare to go against the Love Sect.
However, Lin Fan wanted to do the opposite of that and hold a ceremony that was only for the Love Sect members.
Was there really a meaning to holding such a ceremony?
Lin Fan just revealed a faint smile when he saw all of them looking at him like this.
The way that he just looked at them like this was almost as if he was keeping them in suspense on purpose, like he was just teasing them.
Everyone was confused when they heard this from Yue Lan.
They didn't think that he was normal at all since he was doing this strange thing...
But when they thought about it, they realized that Yue Lan was right.
She continued by saying, "He's always been doing things like this, so it was strange when he suddenly stopped. But now it seemed like he has gotten over whatever it was that he had been worrying about and can see the path forward. As long as he's like that, I'll follow him anywhere."
The others looked at her with dazed looks hearing this, but they nodded in agreement in the end.
They had been confused earlier, but now that they thought about it...
They had all chosen to devote their lives to this man that had just left this room.
So while they didn't know what he was planning to do, they knew in their hearts that there was only one thing for them to do. All they had to do was support him in whatever he was planning to do, even if they didn't understand it.
After another silence, all of them revealed relieved looks just like Yue Lan had as they started discussing what they could do for Lin Fan.
But the topic quickly changed to...
"It's been a long time since we've had private time with him...I wonder if we'll be able to have some private time now."
That was the thing that everyone seemed to care about.
They had been lonely during the time that Lin Fan had been away.
It seemed that they wanted 'that' much more than Lin Fan.
It seemed that they had been craving his company quite a bit during the time that he had been away.
So now that he was back, it seemed like they were planning on making up for lost time.
They started discussing the things that they could do with him alone and the things that they could do with him together.
It sounded like they were just planning what to do with him at first, but it didn't take long for them to start planning on how to corner Lin Fan.
It seemed that they were much more aggressive than Lin Fan and were even planning on trapping him just so that he would spend time with them alone.
If Lin Fan was able to hear the things that they had been planning to do to him, there would have been a part of him that would have been afraid. But at the same time, there would have been a part of him that would have looked forward to it.
They couldn't do anything wrong since he had already accepted them for who they were.
If that was what they wanted to do, then he would accept it and go along with them.
That was just the kind of relationship that they had.
The girls knew it as well, which was why they kept planning into the night.
