Chapter 223: The loophole of the bound scroll
Chapter 223: The loophole of the bound scroll
Looking into Liao Fan's deep eyes, Will couldn't help but swallow his saliva and said, "However, later on, when negotiating barter with nobles or wealthy businessmen recommended by the church, Miss Yang often encountered obstacles, and I suspect the reason was Fernanda."
After hearing Will's account of everything that had happened, Liao Fan understood why the other party suspected that it was related to Fernanda.
After all, there were only three people from their side, Will was not there, and Yang Xue was not there, so the problem must be with her.
But what Liao Fan couldn't understand was that Fernanda had clearly been bound, so how could she do such a thing?
After thinking for a long time without any ideas, Liao Fan asked Will to call Yang Xue in.
"What's wrong, Afan?"
When no one is around, Yang Xue never calls the boss, except when she is sleeping, of course. At that time, she calls everything.
"Cher, tell me about Will and Fernanda's behavior during this period."
Hearing Liao Fan's question, Yang Xue's expression suddenly became serious. After thinking for a while, she said, "Mr. Will is fine. He hardly said much on his own initiative along the way. Sometimes it's even easy for people to ignore his existence.
As for Fernanda...this woman is very smart, has high emotional intelligence, and a cheerful personality. She often chats with me.
By the way, if it weren’t for Fernanda’s suggestion in the later stages of this negotiation, things might have gone wrong.
What's wrong? Is there something wrong?
After listening to Yang Xue's retelling, Liao Fan understood what Fernanda had done and why the other party was able to bypass the effect of the binding scroll.
I can only say that this bound scroll still has certain flaws.
Although trust in Liao Fan is mandatory, it is not the slave brand in fantasy novels, and it cannot control a person's mind in all aspects. The human heart is very complicated.
Thinking of this, Liao Fan felt that he needed to have a good talk with the system about this issue.
A short separation is better than a new marriage. The two who had not seen each other for half a year finished talking about business. Without any nonsense, they hugged each other directly after a glance, walked out of the study and went towards the bedroom.
When Liao Fan came out of the bedroom again, the sun had already set in the west.
I walked to the balcony, found the best angle to set up the lounge chair, and began to bask in the sun while constantly shouting in my head, "System! System! Come out! I have something to ask you!"
This is a method of awakening that Liao Fan obtained from the system since he fell into a coma.
Due to the lack of energy, most of the system's useless functions are usually still turned off, such as the conversation function.
"Ding, some functions are being temporarily enabled.
Ding, host, how can I help you? "
Listening to the voice echoing in his mind, Liao Fan couldn't think of where to start complaining for a moment. He could only sigh and ask, "System, I want to ask a question about the bound scroll."
Afterwards, Liao Fan told the system about what happened to Fernanda, the first four female college students who arrived on the island, and some of his own doubts.
"Ding, host, don't rely too much on the special effects of the bound scroll. Although this effect is mandatory, it is only responsible for the host himself.
Therefore, if the person accepting the binding has thoughts about someone other than the host that go against the host's expectations, the binding scroll will not restrict or force them to follow.
Furthermore, while the Binding Scroll imposes a mandatory psychological implication on the binder, it doesn't mean it's completely flawless. For example, if the bound person is convinced that their actions aren't betraying the host, nor are they harming the host's interests, then the Binding Scroll won't intervene regardless of the actual outcome.
After listening to the system's explanation, Liao Fan finally understood how Fernando did it.
First of all, Yang Xue was not the mandatory target of the bound scroll for her. In addition, Fernanda did not really want to disrupt the negotiations, but just wanted to artificially increase the difficulty of the negotiations and gain more credit for herself.
On this point, it can be seen from Yang Xue's narration that the other party never thought that the failure of the early negotiations was caused by Fernanda. Instead, they greatly appreciated the suggestions she made later, and even went out of their way to help Fernanda take credit for it in front of Liao Fan.
After thinking this through, Liao Fan walked back to the living room on the first floor and looked at the time. It was dinner time, so he invited Will and Fernanda to have dinner together.
However, during the break after dinner, Liao Fan took the time to go to the bathroom and sent a message to Okatani Aoi who was not at home.
"Aoi: Contact Yamanaka Masami and tell her that Fernanda will come to see her tomorrow. Tell her to find a chance to kill Fernanda."
After putting away his phone, Liao Fan returned to the dining table. At this time, everyone was still chatting and laughing, mainly Fernanda telling others some interesting stories about their time in Italy.
"Haha, you won't believe this, but when the old Pope saw the photo of the Bible, he was so excited that he almost fainted on the spot. He kept muttering about God and Abraham. It was so mysterious and scary."
......
After a very enjoyable dinner, both the host and the guests enjoyed themselves. When everyone had rested, Liao Fan looked at Fernanda who had been secretly watching him, smiled and said, "Will, we have finished dealing with things here for now. Tomorrow morning, you can take Fernanda with you to the museum to look for Okatani Aoi.
She will arrange temporary accommodation for you and will also be working. Don't worry, I've already informed her before you come back. Fernanda doesn't know the way and has never met Okatani Aoi, so you'll need to introduce her to her."
After that, he looked at Fernanda and said, "Come with me later, I will ask you some details about this mission."
After hearing what Liao Fan said, Fernanda understood what Liao Fan meant and her eyes lit up with joy.
Not long after she arrived on the island, she had already roughly figured out the personnel structure of Liao Fan's side. At that time, she discovered that this future boss was simply a sex-hungry ghost and a nepotist.
The confidants who hold important positions around him are all top-notch beauties, and they don't care about whether they are young or old. I heard that there is a woman next to the boss who seems to be underage.
I think he is no different from those so-called big shots she met before.
From then on, Fernanda was constantly preparing, not only studying and training, but even rejecting all the invitations from men on the island in order to be able to successfully climb into Liao Fan's bed in the future.
She understood that the more prestigious a man was, the more he cared about a woman's chastity.
Although she was no longer a virgin, that was in the past. She couldn't act like that around her boss anymore, at least she couldn't let him find out.
He finished the tea on the table, ignored Yang Xue's eyes that were almost rolling to the back of her head, stood up and walked towards a guest bedroom on the second floor. Seeing this, Fernanda hurriedly followed him.
