Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 185 - 184, A role model for men!

"Captain Wu, what are you still hesitating for? Don’t you forget, you all have to follow my orders!"

Following Kim Soohwan’s roar, the team leader behind him remained motionless. Enraged, Kim Soohwan spun around and glared fiercely, only to see the man’s face had turned pale, his mouth agape as he stared blankly at Lin Fan.

"Do it already! Damn it! I order you to take them all down immediately!" Kim Soohwan was going insane. He grabbed Captain Wu’s shoulders and shook him desperately.

"M-Mr. Kim... that man... we can’t touch him! We can’t!" As if waking from a dream, Captain Wu swallowed hard. He withdrew his gaze from Lin Fan and looked at Kim Soohwan. "His... his status is extraordinary. To touch him, we must have the consent of the Imperial Capital’s top brass."

Just saying this made Captain Wu’s heart pound like a drum, and it took a long time to calm down.

Just a short while ago, he had been suddenly transferred to the perimeter of the Imperial Capital International Airport, tasked with leading the security detail. The orders he received were explicit: allow no one to approach. Anyone who dared to defy could be eliminated on the spot, without the need for prior authorization! The mission was as mysterious as it was strict, naturally piquing his curiosity. He later found out that a major incident, one that shook the entire Imperial Capital, had occurred in the airport’s exit corridor. Someone had single-handedly fought and defeated the four renowned War Gods of the Imperial Capital War Zone! Captain Wu had nearly dropped his jaw in shock. He connected that fact with what he had unintentionally seen during the evacuation: a strange young man getting into Mr. Xia Sr.’s exclusive car. He wasn’t stupid; he immediately guessed that the young man was the person of interest in his mission. Now, seeing Lin Fan again sent a chill down his spine, and a tempest raged in his heart.

"Why can’t we touch him?! I’m the heir of the Guxin Group and an honored guest of the Ying family, the number one family in the Imperial Capital!" Kim Soohwan’s face contorted as he bellowed, his eyes bloodshot with rage.

"I can only tell you that he... he defeated the Four War Gods of the Imperial Capital all by himself! The few dozen of us wouldn’t stand a chance!" Captain Wu shrank back, shaking his head vehemently in fear, absolutely refusing to move forward.

What?! So Xia Bingbing wasn’t bragging? Lin Fan really did defeat the Four War Gods? No wonder he could walk through this Taekwondo Gym, full of masters, as if it were an empty room. No one was his match!

BOOM!

At these words, Kim Soohwan froze, his expression turning uncertain. Master Yang and the others gaped in astonishment, exchanging horrified looks. Fatty Chu’s eyes bulged as he pointed a trembling finger at Lin Fan, completely speechless.

"Hmph. Still think I was bragging? Do you believe me now?" With a smug look on her pretty face, Xia Bingbing glanced at Fatty Chu and the others before casually linking her arm with Lin Fan’s.

"Why are you still holding her? Don’t you know that men and women should keep their distance?!" Turning her head and seeing Lin Fan still holding the unconscious Huang Xiaoya by the waist, Xia Bingbing immediately grew angry again.

"..."

Lin Fan’s mouth twitched. He was speechless.

So you can be all over me, but I can’t even touch someone else? Women... they’re such a headache.

"It’s alright now. You can go back and rest. Don’t worry about anything that happened here," Lin Fan said as he gently tapped Huang Xiaoya’s forehead.

She slowly came to, opening her swollen red eyes. Their eyes met, and Lin Fan hesitated, suppressing the urge to ask about the Green Phoenix Vine.

This girl is still in a state of terror and needs time to calm down. In any case, I’ve made contact. There will be plenty of opportunities after I deal with the present situation.

"...Thank you. You... you shouldn’t have made such a scene for my sake," Huang Xiaoya looked dazed for a moment, then lowered her head and murmured in a choked voice.

What the hell is this? Huang Xiaoya’s reaction makes it seem like Lin Fan is some hero who flew into a rage for a beauty!

"Goddess Huang! It was me! I’m the one who brought people to rescue you! Don’t get the wrong idea about Lin Fan!" Fatty Chu was overcome with grief and indignation, looking like he wanted to pound his chest and stomp his feet.

"Lin Fan, you scum! You... you’d better explain yourself! What in the world is your relationship with her?!" Xia Bingbing was aghast, fiercely pinching the soft flesh of his waist again and again.

"..."

Master Yang and the other two exchanged a look of tacit understanding that all men share. So he claimed to be looking for Kim Soohwan, to rescue that Shen Zhiqian family from Yuncheng. In reality, it was all just an excuse!

"I really didn’t know she had been tricked into coming here by Kim Sooeun," Lin Fan explained, his face paling under the strange stares as he shook his head. "...If I told you this is only the second time I’ve ever met her, would any of you believe me?" He turned, giving Xia Bingbing and Fatty Chu an exasperated look.

"Believe you? My foot! You’ve only been in the Imperial Capital for a few hours and you’ve already hooked up with a little vixen! Hmph!" Xia Bingbing seethed, raising her high-heeled shoe and stomping hard on Lin Fan’s foot.

"Lin Fan, how could you do this?! Have you no compassion? You already have Xia Bingbing, yet you’re stealing my Huang Xiaohua!" Fatty Chu looked ready to cry from anger as he pointed a trembling finger at Lin Fan and shouted, "You borrow my Benz to hit on my beloved Sister Bingbing, and now you won’t even spare Huang Xiaohua! Are you doing this on purpose? Were you sent from heaven just to torment me?!"

"Forget it. Believe what you want. There’s really nothing between us," Lin Fan said with a deep breath, rolling his eyes in frustration. He couldn’t be bothered to explain any further.

"Can you... can you put me down now?" Just then, Huang Xiaoya, still in Lin Fan’s arms, spoke up shyly, her face beet red. "...Can I... can I add you on WeChat? Thank you for saving me today. I’d like to find some time to thank you properly."

Lin Fan set her down on her feet. She then summoned her courage and looked him straight in the eye.

Regardless of whether she had misunderstood this stranger’s intentions or if he had just helped her in passing, he had still rescued her, consequences be damned.

Biting her lip, Huang Xiaoya took out her phone and held it out to Lin Fan.

"Alright, let’s add each other," Lin Fan agreed without hesitation, also taking out his phone and pulling up his QR code.

HISS!

This was just... insanely bold. Adding another girl on WeChat right in front of his own woman? Incredible. Simply incredible. A role model for all men; a level of mastery one could only dream of achieving!

Seeing this, Master Yang and the other two gasped, their eyes filled with deep admiration. Even the dozens of stoic warriors at the gym entrance couldn’t help but be moved.

"Add you? Like hell! I don’t even have your WeChat!" Xia Bingbing fumed, clenching her small fists, itching to punch someone. Seeing that she couldn’t stop him, she took out her own phone and scanned Lin Fan’s QR code.

"This isn’t fair! I want to add Goddess Huang’s WeChat too!" Fatty Chu wailed, pulling out his phone as well. He shamelessly pestered Huang Xiaoya and finally managed to add her.

Master Yang shoved his phone at Master Song, winking desperately. Master Song and Master Jiang then hurried forward, their faces wreathed in fawning smiles. "Ahem, Mr. Lin," they said, "the three of us would also like to add you."

This was no joke. How could they possibly miss the chance to connect with such a formidable figure? If Huang Xiaoya hadn’t taken the initiative, the three of them would never have dared to ask for his contact information themselves!

"Mr. Lin, it’s all a misunderstanding! A huge misunderstanding! I... I’d like to add you as a friend too."

Just then, Captain Wu’s eyes lit up at the gym entrance. He trotted over eagerly and brazenly made his request to Lin Fan with an awkward chuckle.

"What are you doing? Weren’t you the one Kim Soohwan brought here for backup?" Before Lin Fan could answer, Xia Bingbing glared at Captain Wu and demanded loudly.

"Well... if I had known Mr. Lin was here, I never would have dared to bring my men over!" Captain Wu chuckled awkwardly, his face burning. Not waiting for Lin Fan’s permission, he quickly scanned the QR code with his phone, then retreated, bowing and scraping.

"We’re clear! Withdraw!" Back at the entrance, Captain Wu waved his hand, preparing to leave with his team.

"Don’t you move! Nobody is leaving!"

The next moment, Kim Soohwan, his face ashen, finally snapped back to his senses. He shouted fiercely, spreading his arms to block Captain Wu. "Fine! Since you’re all afraid of his identity, we’ll do this by the book!"

Kim Soohwan pointed back at the bodies strewn across the gym floor, his eyes bloodshot as he roared, "The murderer is right in front of you! Why aren’t you arresting him?!"

"Murderer? What murderer?" Captain Wu’s expression darkened, a flicker of anger in his eyes. "I’m with the Imperial Capital War Zone, not some local law enforcement agency. I have no jurisdiction over your public brawls."

Damn it. I’m not some dog on the Kim family’s leash. I give you an inch and you think you can order me around again and again? If the Ying family hadn’t pulled some strings to get me here, who the hell would bother with a punk from Goryeo like you?

"Mr. Kim, let me offer you a piece of friendly advice. This is the Daxia Imperial City, not Goryeo where you can do as you please," Captain Wu said coolly. "When you meet a powerful figure you can’t afford to provoke, you’d better tuck your tail between your legs and learn some humility!"

"Move out! Back to base!"

Ignoring Kim Soohwan’s utterly livid expression, Captain Wu turned, gave Lin Fan a smiling nod, and strode away with his men in tow.
