This was going to get troublesome.
A man like Lu Fan was best not left to his own devices. But there was nothing they had to bind him to them.
And they were in a delicate situation where they had to choose between gaining Lu Fan's friendship, or the government.
But with the Yan family up their ass, the best they might get is a pardon from the court. Han Zu Xuan was directly linked to this mess and it'd be great if they did not lose a piece of meat.
And they had seen Lu Fan's technology. The fact that Director Kan came personally was a testament to how groundbreaking it was.
If it was just advanced, Kan Jian would not sit down properly and behave. Han Chen had seen how excited he could get when they made progress.
Him sitting down honestly and listening to Lu Fan go on and on showed how much importance his technology had.
And who knew what Lu Fan's reaction would be if they forced him?
