Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 147, regrets are useless!

"No problem. I’ll pay out of my own pocket to renovate his bathroom into a five-star one!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xue wasn’t annoyed at all. Instead, her smile was practically crooked.

This really was a tremendous windfall!

Not only had Lin Fan unblocked all her meridians in one go, but her Inner Breath had also surged severalfold. A breakthrough in the Martial Realm that so many people dreamed of had happened for her as easily as eating and drinking water. Overcome with ecstatic joy, Mrs. Xue couldn’t help but look deeply at Lin Fan, her eyes full of gratitude. But she couldn’t swallow her pride to thank him, so she could only keep staring, hesitating to speak.

"Qi Transformation, injuring someone from a distance... Hiss... is this a direct step into the Qi Condensation realm?"

Just then, Wang Meng stepped forward to inspect the collapsed wall closely. He was shocked and couldn’t help but gasp. There was a half-meter gap between the clinic’s wall and where Mrs. Xue had stood. Yet, the Qi Force from her punch had penetrated right through it, demolishing the outer wall of the neighbor’s bathroom!

With a sudden realization, Wang Meng turned to look at Mrs. Xue, his eyes full of envy and fervor.

"Am-am I really that strong? Did I just jump from the early stage of Righteous Energy straight into Qi Condensation?" Mrs. Xue was also stunned. She looked down at her palm in disbelief, murmuring to herself.

She had indeed felt a huge boost in her strength, but she had never dared to imagine such a drastic improvement.

"It should be pseudo-Qi Condensation, which is the peak Great Perfection state of the Righteous Energy realm."

However, before Mrs. Xue could indulge in her wild joy, Lin Fan poured cold water on her enthusiasm.

"The medicinal effects in your body haven’t been completely absorbed yet, so your state is unstable. It’ll only count once it stabilizes."

Ignoring Mrs. Xue’s stiffening smile, Lin Fan nodded at the eager Wang Meng.

"Thank you, Boss! Thank you, Boss!"

Wang Meng was immediately exuberant. He trotted over to Lin Fan’s feet and sat down cross-legged, just as Mrs. Xue had.

ZZZT! ZZZT! ZZZT!

Moments later, Lin Fan made his move again, effortlessly unblocking all of Wang Meng’s meridians. Without needing a reminder, Wang Meng quickly stuffed two Qi Replenishing Pills into his mouth and gulped them down.

"Aaaaargh!"

The fierce medicinal effect erupted explosively within his body. Wang Meng couldn’t help but roar, the veins on his forehead throbbing violently.

"Alright, that’s all I can do for now. From here on, you’ll have to walk your own paths." Lin Fan wiped the sweat from his brow and helped the excited, fist-clenching Wang Meng to his feet.

"Boss! You’re like a second parent to me! Please accept my bow of respect!"

THUMP!

With tears welling in his fierce eyes, Wang Meng couldn’t stop himself from kneeling and kowtowing heavily before Lin Fan. When everyone else had looked down on him and cast him aside like worn-out shoes, only the man before him was willing to take him in. He even helped him improve his Martial Arts Realm without asking for anything in return!

"Alright, there’s no need for such formalities." Lin Fan frowned slightly and helped Wang Meng up again.

He grabbed his phone and checked the time. The second day of the ordering conference at the Haicheng International Convention and Exhibition Center was about to start. He had the sweat-drenched Mrs. Xue and Wang Meng find places to freshen up. Then, he took a refreshing cold shower himself, changed his clothes, and headed out with Yuan Youwei and the others.

"Let Wang Meng drive from now on. He’s a Qi Condensation master now."

The black Bentley started up slowly, with Mrs. Xue at the wheel and Wang Meng sitting obediently in the front passenger seat. Seeing this, Lin Fan glanced at Yuan Youwei beside him and made the suggestion.

Truth be told, he still wasn’t comfortable with Mrs. Xue protecting Yuan Youwei alone. After all, Wang Meng had been tempered by combat on the front lines of the Northern Border. When it came to reflexes and sensing danger, he naturally far surpassed others.

"Okay, I’ll listen to you," Yuan Youwei said with a sweet smile and an obedient nod.

Not long after, the car stopped outside the Haicheng International Convention and Exhibition Center. The scene was almost an exact replica of the day before, bustling with a sea of people.

"It’s Director Lin! Director Lin has arrived!"

"Quick, go and greet him!"

As Lin Fan and his entourage entered the hall, they immediately caused a sensation. Numerous well-dressed bigwigs swarmed toward them, surrounding them like planets orbiting the sun.

Wen Zheyang had already vanished without a trace, so today’s conference was being personally presided over by Mr. Yuan Sr. Furthermore, Haicheng’s top nine pharmaceutical companies had all chosen to cooperate with Lin Fan again. Instantly, many people regarded Lin Fan with deep reverence. Despite his youth, his true strength had already earned him a place among Haicheng’s four major tycoons. There was even a rumor that Lord Hu was dead and Lin Fan was destined to take his place.

"Did Director Shen and his people from Yuncheng not come today?"

Yuandao Pharmaceuticals’ booth had been moved to the very center of the hall, making it exceptionally prominent. The area around it was packed with Yuandao Pharmaceuticals’ employees, all looking spirited and flushed with success. Many cast proud glances around, as if the company’s current status was all their own doing.

Lin Fan glanced at the unfamiliar faces, then turned to look at the right side of the hall and was momentarily stunned. The booth belonging to Yunhai Group was completely empty, with no one tending to it. His heart sinking slightly, Lin Fan immediately went forward to ask around.

"I don’t know. Director Shen and his group didn’t attend today’s ordering conference. Maybe they had an urgent matter and already returned to Yuncheng?" someone replied, shaking their head before turning back to greet a potential distributor.

Returned... What urgent matter could be more pressing than the ordering conference? Lin Fan frowned silently, feeling that something was amiss.

"Director Lin!"

"Hello, Director Lin, I’m Xu Yingying, the head of the marketing department!"

"Director Lin, you look truly dashing today! I’m Zhou Fang, the head of the project department!"

Returning to the Yuandao Pharmaceuticals booth, Lin Fan was swiftly surrounded by a flock of chattering women, all clamoring to introduce themselves.

"Hmph, so now you’re all eager to suck up?" Seeing this, Yuan Youwei gave a mocking smile, though a hint of coldness flashed in her beautiful eyes.

These people were all Yuan Ruoshan’s former subordinates. When she and Lin Fan had previously visited the company, they had all been condescending and indifferent. Now that they knew Yuan Ruoshan was dead and Lin Fan was about to take power, they had all changed their tune, hoping to curry favor with the new boss.

"Director Yuan, you must be joking. We had no choice."

"Yes, that’s right! We were forced by Yuan Ruoshan. What could we possibly do?"

Xu Yingying and the others blushed, sighing as they snuck glances at Lin Fan’s reaction.

"Your presence here today shows you still care about your positions." Amid pairs of hopeful eyes, Lin Fan’s mouth twisted into a self-deprecating smile as he shook his head. "It’s a pity. If you had come yesterday, even just to put on an act, I might have been willing to look the other way." 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

BOOM!

As his words fell, Xu Yingying and the others trembled, their faces turning pale.

What did he mean by that? Now that he had just taken power, would he really be so impatient as to purge them all?

"No, please, don’t, Director Lin!"

"We were wrong! We were wrong, isn’t that enough? We apologize! Please, just forgive us this one time!"

The department heads, along with a crowd of other men and women, all panicked.

THUMP! THUMP!

Disregarding the strange looks from others, they knelt down en masse, a dark crowd of bodies hitting the floor. Their faces were filled with remorse as they began to plead desperately with Lin Fan.
