Lu Qinghuan stood still in place, maintaining the smile on her face, and didn’t react for a long ti.
Hao and Ding Ling were both stunned.
Only Ding Yao was snickering to herself, "Looks like I’m not the only one feeling awkward."
Seeing that Chen Fan didn’t stop, the three of them hurriedly followed him.
Uncle Three approached Lu Qinghuan, "Miss?"
That was when Lu Qinghuan snapped out of it, ran to catch up with Chen Fan, and stopped him.
"Mr. Chen, I know that my previous arrogant attitude angered you, and I sincerely apologize to you. It was my fault for being so presumptuous, and I hope you can forgive ."
"I ca to Jiangbei this ti specifically to seek out young Grandmasters like you. I have a very important matter and I’m hoping for your assistance, Mr. Chen. Please give a chance."
After speaking, Lu Qinghuan even bowed to Chen Fan.
Chen Fan spoke indifferently, "Sorry, you should still find soone else."
He bypassed Lu Qinghuan and continued walking forward.
Imdiately, Lu Qinghuan’s face was filled with disappointnt, and her heart was full of regret and bitterness.
"Do I really have to turn to those Grandmasters in their seventies or eighties to solve the trouble with my body?"
Uncle Three ca over and comforted her, "Miss, don’t lose heart. He might still be angry; that’s why he rejected you so decisively. We can wait for him to cool down and ask him again."
Another middle-aged man nodded, "Yes, such a young Grandmaster is rare in the world. We have been looking for so long and just found this one, so we definitely can’t give up easily."
Lu Qinghuan watched Chen Fan’s receding figure and nodded seriously, "Alright, then we’ll try again after so ti has passed."
...
The Ding family’s old mansion.
Chen Fan packed up his things and bade farewell to the mbers of the Ding family.
He had finished dealing with matters in the Provincial City, and it was ti for him to return.
All the mbers of the Ding family ca out to bid him farewell respectfully.
Chen Fan approached Ding Ling, "Can you do a favor?"
Ding Ling quickly nodded, "Please, just say it."
Chen Fan said, "During the battle today, many people took videos and uploaded them online. I am a low-key person, and it’s enough for the events of today to circulate within the Jiangbei Martial Arts Circle. Your Ding Family has several internet technology companies. I hope you can help clean up those videos online, or control public opinion a bit."
Ding Ling solemnly promised, "Don’t worry, this is a minor matter for our Ding family. I will make sure it’s done for you."
Chen Fan gave a bow, "Then I thank you very much."
Without lingering, Chen Fan hailed a taxi and headed for the train station.
He took a train back to Jiangcheng, and by the ti he arrived, it was evening. Chen Fan then took another taxi back to Yunwu Villas.
Just as he got out of the taxi, Chen Fan received a call from an unknown number.
"Is this Chen Fan?" A woman’s voice ca from the other end.
"Who is this?" Chen Fan asked with confusion.
"I am Qingyan’s mother. I am currently at Qingyun Cafe. Please co over," said Jian Wanrong indifferently.
Chen Fan imdiately beca tense and quickly replied, "Okay, okay, I’ll be right there."
He stopped the taxi he had just left and got back in, "Driver, to Qingyun Cafe, please."
On the way, Chen Fan felt a bit uneasy, "I have no idea why Qingyan’s mother would want to see ."
Although his state of mind was far beyond that of ordinary people, the person he was about to et was his potential mother-in-law, and he couldn’t help feeling innately nervous.
As Chen Fan drove back the way he had co, he muttered to himself, "I should buy a car when I have ti, it really is much more convenient. Otherwise, the next ti my mother-in-law summons , it would be embarrassing if I can’t get a cab for half a day."
Soon, the taxi stopped in front of the Qingyun Cafe.
After alighting from the taxi, Chen Fan hurried in.
There weren’t many people inside the cafe. As soon as Chen Fan entered, he saw a glamorous and seductive woman sitting by the window, sipping on her coffee.
There was a resemblance to Su Qingyan in her features, and Chen Fan was certain that she was Su Qingyan’s mother, Jian Wanrong.
He quickly went over and greeted her with a smile, "Auntie, I hope I haven’t kept you waiting too long."
Jian Wanrong sized up Chen Fan for a few monts, "So you’re Chen Fan?"
Chen Fan nodded.
Jian Wanrong looked rather disappointed, "Have a seat."
Chen Fan sat down, sowhat restrained, "May I know why you wanted to see , Auntie?"
Jian Wanrong pushed a bank card toward Chen Fan, "There is five hundred million in this card. I hope you can leave my daughter."
Chen Fan’s smile froze.
His expression turned cold again as he pushed the bank card back, "Auntie, that’s not a funny joke."
Jian Wanrong’s eyebrows knitted together, "Who’s joking with you? What, is five hundred million too little for you?"
By now, Chen Fan’s reputation had only spread within specific circles, and the mbers of the Su Family had not heard of Chen Fan’s glorious deeds.
Jian Wanrong, in particular, only knew that Chen Fan had been involved in the developnt of the Youth-Preserving Pill. In her mind, Chen Fan was nothing more than a son-in-law who had been kicked out and had only improved a little thanks to Su Qingyan.
Therefore, in her eyes, five hundred million was already very generous.
Chen Fan looked at Jian Wanrong earnestly, "Auntie, my feelings for Qingyan are sincere. No matter how much money is offered, I will not leave her."
Jian Wanrong had a cold expression, "Anyone with a mouth can say such things. The key is whether you are worthy of our Yanyan. Chen Fan, you must understand that there are social classes, and people from different classes find it hard to be together. Right now, you’re both just blinded by so-called love!"
Chen Fan was resolute, "Auntie, no matter what you say, I will not leave Qingyan. As for the class you ntioned, I believe it doesn’t exist. I will work hard to show you my worth."
Jian Wanrong was rendered speechless for a mont.
That’s when her assistant approached, "Madam, it’s almost ti for your appointnt with the project manager from the Chu Family. This cooperation with the Chu Family is crucial for us; we cannot afford any delays."
Jian Wanrong nodded her head and put the bank card back into her bag as she stood up.
Chen Fan glanced at her, "Auntie, are the Su Family and the Provincial City Chu Family discussing business?"
Jian Wanrong looked down from her high position, "Indeed. Since you are aware that our Su Family negotiates with major families from the Provincial City, you should also be clear about your own position. Moreover, Qingyan also has connections in the Capital. You better recognize the reality."
Chen Fan stood up, "Auntie, if it’s about negotiating business with the Chu Family, I can help."
Jian Wanrong looked Chen Fan up and down with disdain, "You? To help shine their shoes?"
After saying that, she left with her assistant.
Chen Fan sighed helplessly.
After thinking for a while, he picked up his phone and dialed Su Qingyan’s number.
"Qingyan, your mother just ca to see ."
"Hm? What did she say to you?" Su Qingyan asked.
Chen Fan forced a smile, "She gave five hundred million to leave you."
Su Qingyan clearly beca angry, "I’ve told her so many tis not to interfere with my affairs; she just doesn’t listen!"
"I’m about to go and talk business with her. I want her to know that no matter what, she can’t stop !"
