Divorce Only Makes a Son-in-Law Stronger-Chapter 99: Why do you need to apologize?

"...What are you so ridiculously happy about?"

Seeing this, Lin Fan was baffled.

"I already sent Yuan Ruohai overseas, and Su Mengqing even forced Su Pharmaceutical on me."

He scanned Mr. Wang Sr. and the others, their faces brimming with glee, and slowly shook his head.

"Your information is too outdated. You’d better look out for yourselves."

"Heh... Lin Fan, keep boasting. As if you could really order around Second Master Yuan."

Mr. Wang Sr. chuckled heartily, his expression one of utter confidence.

"Young Master Wen, that’s Su Mengqing—Director Su. She’s Lin Fan’s ex-wife, the beautiful CEO of Su Pharmaceutical!" Turning his head, Mr. Wang Sr. explained to the confused Wen Zheyang. "Those two are like fire and water, completely at odds. The Su family wants him dead. How could they possibly hand a perfectly good company over to Lin Fan?"

"I think the kid is just scared witless and spouting nonsense now, hahaha!"

At these words, the surrounding pharmaceutical magnates also burst into loud guffaws.

"Young Master Wen, Lin Fan used to mooch off the Su family, then he tried to cozy up to Yuan Youwei."

"Too bad for him, fate had other plans. First, the Su family kicked him out, and now Yuan Youwei has been toppled!"

"Hahaha, looking at it that way, Lin Fan, you really are a jinx!"

One after another, they all took turns mocking Lin Fan.

Wen Zheyang froze, temporarily suppressing the urge to change his pants. How could he possibly miss such a great show? He was dying to see how Lin Fan would face his ex-wife, Su Mengqing!

Nearby, Wang Meng still looked uncertain as his family members helped him away to get his injuries treated.

He couldn’t shake the feeling that this man claiming to be Lin Fan resembled an old acquaintance. But that person had been officially declared dead by the Da Xia Military seven years ago! The news had shaken the entire Imperial Capital at the time. Even the 300,000-strong Hulin Guard on the front lines in the North was thrown into an uproar, nearly causing a mutiny!

"Whether you want to see Su Mengqing or not has nothing to do with me."

Just then, Lin Fan nodded to Doctor Jiang, preparing to leave with him.

I don’t know how Su Mengqing found me. But for her to come back this quickly... this definitely isn’t good news.

"Lin Fan, are you scared to face Director Su? Afraid she’ll expose you for what you really are?" Wen Zheyang suppressed his anger and scoffed at Lin Fan with a wide, mocking smirk.

"Why don’t you worry about yourself first before poking your nose into other people’s business?" Lin Fan glanced at him. "Is it refreshing walking around bare-assed?"

"You—don’t get cocky! Just wait until Mr. Iguchi Watanabe contacts me, then I’ll deal with you!"

Wen Zheyang’s cold smirk froze on his face, his composure nearly cracking again.

"If that little brat from the Sakura Country wants to contact you, he’ll have to do it in a dream."

Lin Fan couldn’t be bothered to waste any more time and immediately turned to leave. However, in the eyes of Mr. Wang Sr. and the others, this just looked like he was consumed by guilt and trying to flee in disgrace. They exchanged looks, their smiles brimming with smugness.

"Lin Fan! Stop! You... let me finish!"

The next moment, a steward from the Wang family arrived, leading a wan-looking Su Mengqing over. Their paths crossed, but Lin Fan didn’t spare her a glance, continuing on his way as if she were a complete stranger.

THUD!

"Lin Fan, you angered my mother so much she had a stroke! She’s in the hospital undergoing emergency surgery right now!"

Seeing that Lin Fan was ignoring her, Su Mengqing grew desperate. She bit her lip fiercely and dropped to her knees before Lin Fan’s retreating figure. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"I’m begging you, please! Just go to the hospital to see my mother and apologize to her!" Su Mengqing held back tears of humiliation, her voice choking as she cried out.

The sudden turn of events silenced the entire scene. The smiles on the faces of Mr. Wang Sr. and the others froze; they were all completely dumbstruck. Wen Zheyang’s eyes widened in shock, and he nearly bit his tongue.

Damn it, didn’t you all say Lin Fan was screwed? Weren’t you waiting to see Su Mengqing put him in his place? So why the hell did she kneel to him the moment she showed up?!

"Young Master Wen, this... this must be because Director Su is desperate to save her mother! It’s an act of filial piety, forcing her to endure this humiliation to beg Lin Fan!"

Under Wen Zheyang’s puzzled gaze, the pharmaceutical magnates who had just been speaking so confidently were all red-faced with embarrassment. Mr. Wang Sr.’s own face was burning as he hastily tried to come up with an explanation.

"Director Su, why are you kneeling to him? Isn’t the Yuan family about to invest five billion in Su Pharmaceutical?" he said, striding forward and shooting desperate glances at Su Mengqing. "Get up, quickly! You don’t need to be afraid of this scumbag anymore. We’re all on the same side now."

"Mr. Wang Sr., Su Pharmaceutical... it’s in Lin Fan’s hands now..." Su Mengqing said, the veins on her pale neck bulging as her face filled with grief and despair. "I’ve lost everything! All I want now is for him to go to the hospital and calm my mother down!"

What? Su Pharmaceutical is really his now?

Hearing this, Mr. Wang Sr. was stunned, and his expression changed drastically. The pharmaceutical magnates behind him were also filled with shocked disbelief.

Could it be... that the five-billion-yuan investment wasn’t Yuan Ruohai’s decision? The only other explanation is that it was Yuan Youwei’s doing!

As this terrifying suspicion arose in their minds, everyone’s heart sank.

What does this mean? If Yuan Youwei is still in control of Yuandao Capital, it can only mean one thing... Yuan Ruohai has failed!

"Su Mengqing, are you fucking insane?"

Lin Fan, who had stopped and turned around, finally spoke, his face dark. "Didn’t you say at the clinic that if you ever came looking for me again, that would make you, Su Mengqing, cheap and shameless?"

"Yes! So what if I’m cheap! I, Su Mengqing, am shameless!" Su Mengqing shouted, her fists clenched tightly. "As long as you go to the hospital and apologize to my mom, you can curse me however you want!"

"Why should I go apologize to your mom? I’m busy. Don’t bother me with such trifling matters," Lin Fan said with a frown. "Besides, what does it matter to me if she lives or dies? Would she be out of danger the second I arrived?"

His cold, merciless words echoed through the area.

Su Mengqing’s expression froze, and her body trembled. She felt as if a heavy hammer had just smashed into her chest. The feeling was suffocating, crushing. It was a despair so profound it left her helpless, and an uncontrollable rage exploded through her entire being.

"Lin Fan! How can you be so cold-blooded, so heartless?!" Su Mengqing finally broke down, screaming through her tears. "Even if the Su family treated you poorly, even if you still resent us, you called her ’Mom’ for four whole years! Shouldn’t you set aside your grudges at a life-or-death moment like this and fulfill an old woman’s wish?"

She gritted her teeth and struggled to her feet, her body shaking violently. "You won’t even pretend?!"

"That’s right. Lin Fan shouldn’t go. He should let your mother, Zhang Meili, die from anger!" a crisp voice called out from the end of the corridor, interrupting Su Mengqing.

Everyone’s head snapped toward the sound, their expressions changing drastically.

"Su Mengqing, you begged me to tell you where Lin Fan was, claiming you wanted to apologize to him," Yuan Youwei said, striding forward with Mrs. Xue. She was dressed like a secretary, her smile mocking and her eyes filled with an icy chill.

"Is this your so-called apology? Guilt-tripping him and aggressively making demands?" Yuan Youwei came to a halt in front of Su Mengqing and laughed with anger. "Have you forgotten how you treated Lin Fan when he begged you to visit Ms. Lin Suxin in the hospital for her last moments? He’s just giving you a taste of your own medicine, and you can’t take it? Have you no shame?!"
