Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 88. Remarry? Wishful thinking!

"Young Master, please don’t!"

Upon hearing this, Master Feng’s expression changed dramatically. He, along with Wu Miaomiao and Shi Potian, hurriedly dropped to one knee.

"Your humble servants have waited anxiously for this day, Young Master. Our loyalty is beyond question!" he declared, raising his head with a pleading look in his eyes.

"Young Master, please don’t be alarmed," Shi Potian quickly added. "It’s just an occupational hazard—I see someone, and I just have to hand them a flyer... Being a real estate agent is just my cover!" He froze for a second before quickly explaining, "I am the Right Protector of the Human Tower, codename Bald Vulture. I formally greet you, Young Master!"

"...But don’t you have a full head of hair?" Lin Fan asked, eyeing Shi Potian’s head skeptically.

"The truth is, I went bald at a young age. To avoid tarnishing the reputation of the Human Tower, I’ve always worn this wig!" Gritting his teeth, Shi Potian snatched off the wig, revealing a head as smooth as a peeled egg.

"Alright, all of you, get up," Lin Fan said, speechless once again.

After a moment’s hesitation, he still used a silver needle to pick out a tiny amount of Serenity Powder and handed it to Shi Potian.

"Young Master," Master Feng said, visibly relieved and smiling broadly, "the two Protectors were able to arrive so quickly because they remained in Xia Country, as they were unwilling to submit to the discipline of the Holy Poison Sect. As for our other brothers in the tower, apart from those we’ve lost contact with, almost all of them are in Sha Country!"

"Alright, tell them they don’t need to come. The three of you will escort Xiao Jie back to his country immediately and help him stabilize the situation," Lin Fan instructed, nodding toward Xiao Jie and the others, who were now awake. He then turned to the other two. "Old Su, Old Yuan, returning to Sha Country this time is very risky. If you don’t want to go, I won’t force you."

"No, no, I’m willing! A hundred times willing!" Yuan Ruohai exclaimed, both shocked and overjoyed.

THUMP!

He knelt straight before Lin Fan and knocked his head heavily on the ground.

"Thank you for your trust, Young Master! From this day forward, I, Yuan Ruohai, will go through fire and water for you!" Yuan Ruohai declared as he looked up, his eyes burning with fervor.

With Master Feng and these other experts as escorts, there would be no risk to my life even if we fail. If we succeed, I could forge a new path for myself and live a completely different life!

"I... I’m willing too!" Old Su hesitated for a moment before nodding emphatically. Such a great opportunity lay before him; only a fool would refuse. He just wondered if Su Mengqing could be persuaded to quickly mend her relationship with Lin Fan.

"Brother-in-law! If you can save my dad, I’ll make sure everyone is well rewarded!" Xiao Jie promised excitedly, his face flushed.

"...Just listen to Old Feng. With their help, it shouldn’t be a problem." Lin Fan no longer bothered to correct the form of address, patting Xiao Jie’s shoulder comfortingly.

"Young Master, time is of the essence. Shall we depart immediately?" Master Feng asked carefully, a look of delight on his face.

"Go on. Be careful on the way." Lin Fan glanced at Wu Miaomiao and Shi Potian, the corner of his mouth twitching as he turned away. He was afraid he wouldn’t be able to resist the sudden impulse to disband the Human Tower...

"Take care, Young Master! We will not fail you!"

With that, the group bowed their goodbyes to Lin Fan. They piled into the cars Wu Miaomiao and Shi Potian had driven, and the engines roared as they sped away.

"I hope they succeed..." Lin Fan murmured to himself after a long while, finally pulling his gaze from the alley entrance and shaking his head.

After finishing breakfast and some morning stretches, Lin Fan took out his phone. He planned to contact Yuan Youwei and visit the Yuandao Pharmaceuticals office building.

"Lin Fan! What did you say to my dad yesterday? You’re truly shameless!"

Just then, the screech of tires echoed from the end of the alley. Immediately after, four familiar figures with hostile expressions appeared. It was, surprisingly, Su Mengqing’s family of three, along with Yang Tingting.

"What are you all doing here?" Lin Fan put down his phone, his gaze turning cold. "Trying to steal something again in broad daylight?"

"Bullshit! When did we ever steal from you!" Su Gang, sitting in his wheelchair, turned red with rage and began cursing.

"Lin Fan, cut the crap!" Zhang Meili shouted, stepping forward and pointing a finger at Lin Fan’s nose, her plump face twisted in anger. "I’m asking you, did you threaten Mengqing’s father last night to make her remarry you? Your skin is as thick as a fortress wall! Are you just green with envy now that our Mengqing is about to marry into the Sha Country Royal Family?"

"Lin Fan, take a look in the mirror. Do you really think you’re worthy of remarrying our Director Su?" Yang Tingting added, stepping up with her chin tilted high, sneering nonstop. "You weren’t worthy before, and you’re even less worthy now!"

"Lin Fan, you truly disappoint me. You’re disgusting." Su Mengqing crossed her arms, holding her head high. Her beautiful, cold face was filled with utter arrogance and revulsion. "Did you think using such despicable tactics would shame me for life?" Her red lips curled into a contemptuous sneer. "Sorry, but you’re going to be disappointed. Yuan Youwei must have been blind to fall for you, but I, Su Mengqing, am not!"

"...Are you people sick in the head?" Lin Fan’s brow furrowed deeply, as if he were looking at a group of idiots. "When did I tell your father to ask you to remarry me?"

He shook his head, almost choking with laughter at the absurdity. "Su Mengqing, let me be perfectly clear. Even if you stood before me completely naked, I’d still think you were filthy."

His words struck them like a thunderclap, leaving Zhang Meili and the others stunned. Su Mengqing trembled with rage, her pretty face darkening with fury.

How shameless! What a despicable dog! It was obviously you, Lin Fan, who deliberately had Old Su pass on the message. And now you’re flatly denying it? This just proves the old saying: a shameless person is invincible!

"Lin Fan, a real man stands by his actions!" Su Gang bellowed, slamming his hands on the armrests of his wheelchair until they banged.

"You have the nerve to talk about standing by your actions?" Lin Fan found this utterly laughable and pointed back toward the counter inside his clinic. "That night, you stole the White Dragon Grass from under the counter. Why don’t you admit it?"

"I... I was just checking to see if you had secretly taken anything valuable from our house! That wasn’t stealing, that was an inspection!" Su Gang’s face flushed crimson, so angry he could have spat blood. He shouted frantically, nearly lurching out of his wheelchair.

"What right do you have to inspect my clinic?" Lin Fan shook his head and turned his gaze to Su Mengqing. "I don’t know what Old Su told you when he went home last night, but I can tell you this much... you want to remarry me?"

He laughed, his gaze turning to ice. "In your wildest dreams!"

BOOM!

The heartless words and icy gaze pierced her like an arrow. Su Mengqing staggered, her entire body shaking with rage.

So shameless, so despicable. When he was desperately pursuing me before, how did I never notice this shameless side of him?

"Fine! Just fine! Lin Fan, if you’re any kind of man, you’ll remember what you said today!" Su Mengqing took a deep breath, a laugh of pure fury escaping her lips. "If I, Su Mengqing, ever come looking for you again, then I’m the one who’s pathetic!"

After a shrill cry of rage, she clenched her fists and spun around to leave. Just looking at a man like him for one second longer was sickening.

"Mr. Lin, please forgive the intrusion."

Just then, two impeccably dressed figures emerged from the alley, calling out a polite greeting from a distance with a chuckle.

Su Mengqing froze, stopping in her tracks. Zhang Meili and the others also paused, exchanging bewildered glances.

It was President Luo Da of Haicheng Commercial Bank, walking briskly with a beautiful female subordinate. He didn’t even spare Su Mengqing’s group a glance, scurrying over to Lin Fan with an eager expression.

"Mr. Lin, your account balance increased by more than five hundred million last night. You have now met the standard for our bank’s Supreme VIP status, which requires a deposit of one billion!"

Under the incredulous, stunned gazes of Su Mengqing and her companions, President Luo gave a signal with his eyes. The beautiful female subordinate immediately produced a black-and-gold card and presented it to Lin Fan with a radiant smile.

"Hello, Mr. Lin. My name is Zheng Xiuxiu, and I will be your personal account manager from now on." The woman’s eyes sparkled as she bowed deeply to Lin Fan, completely disregarding the generous view revealed down the front of her low-cut white blouse. "This is your replacement personal Supreme Black Card. If you need anything at all, feel free to contact me anytime."

She gave a flirtatious wink, paying no mind to Su Mengqing and her companions, who stood completely petrified on the spot.

Just as Lin Fan calmly accepted the black-and-gold card, Su Mengqing could no longer contain herself. She stormed forward, screaming in a mixture of shock and rage, "Lin Fan! Where in the world did you get one billion?!"
