Chapter 048 Tall, rich and handsome
Lin Fan forced himself to remain calm and said, "Uncle Gao was a friend of my father."
Yang Wanrou's beautiful eyes darted around before finally settling on Lin Fan's eyes. She smiled and said, "You call him Uncle Gao, but he speaks of you with great respect."
“Moreover, unless you gave that contact information to Gao Xuan, Shancheng Group will not contact me through that number,” Yang Wanrou added.
Lin Fan gasped as he looked at Yang Wanrou's teasing gaze. He hadn't expected this female celebrity to be so shrewd. However, Gao Xuan was too rigid and lacked acting skills.
Lin Fan stopped avoiding eye contact and looked directly at Yang Wanrou, his eyes exuding a condescending aura. He said, "You know I'm your boss, yet you still dare to speak to me like this?"
Lin Fan stopped hiding it, which startled Yang Wanrou. She was just testing him to verify her suspicions. Business cards are universal, and what she said earlier was just made up.
Yang Wanrou was filled with confusion. Lin Fan was indeed the president of the Lin family in Shancheng, but why was he content to be a live-in son-in-law of a second-rate family?
"Hello, boss." Yang Wanrou's aura immediately weakened, and she hesitated before asking, "Why are you doing that at the Su family?"
Yang Wanrou was a little embarrassed to speak, afraid of hurting Lin Fan's feelings again.
"Become a live-in son-in-law?" Lin Fan's lips curled up slightly as he said, "You don't need to know. Of course, you must keep my identity a secret, otherwise, you know the strength of the Mountain City Group."
Yang Wanrou trembled, regretting that she had come to Lin Fan to ask for the truth; curiosity killed the cat.
"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, I will keep it a secret!"
After giving his instructions, Lin Fan returned to the banquet. As soon as he sat down, Su Jianqiang couldn't help but start mocking him again:
"You good-for-nothing still care about saving face? If this affects our cooperation with the Su family, you might as well get the hell out of here!"
Just as Yang Wanrou was about to leave, she caught a glimpse of Su Jianqiang's face and was suddenly filled with disgust. She couldn't understand why Lin Fan had become a live-in son-in-law in the Su family.
The president of Shancheng Group, the head of the Lin family of Shancheng, a man who holds absolute power in the business world of Shancheng, what could possibly make him conceal his identity and submit to this position?
Yang Wanrou carefully observed Lin Fan, who sat there with an indifferent expression, poured himself a glass of wine, took a small sip, and then started picking up food.
"Is this useless trash too afraid to speak?" Su Yulin mocked from the side.
Unable to contain herself any longer, Yang Wanrou ran to Lin Fan's side, picked up her wine glass, and said with a smile, "Lin Fan, let me toast you again!"
Lin Fan was somewhat bewildered, wondering what Yang Wanrou intended to do.
Yang Wanrou rolled her eyes at Su Jianqiang and laughed, "Shancheng Group's partners are all highly qualified people. If there are too many people like the Su family, I'm afraid the cooperation won't last long."
Su Yulin was a little puzzled and quickly distanced herself from Su Jianqiang.
Unexpectedly, Yang Wanrou looked at Su Yulin again and said, "And you, little girl, watch your mouth!"
After saying that, Yang Wanrou turned to Lin Fan with a smile and said, "Enjoy your meal!" Then she left table number 98.
After Yang Wanrou left, the Su family members looked at each other, feeling embarrassed at being spoken to like that by a big star. Su Jianqiang and Su Yulin, in particular, turned green with embarrassment.
Only Su Ruowei's family went about their business as usual. Shen Yunlan didn't dare to be arrogant in this situation, only taking photos and posting them on her WeChat Moments and family group chat to show off.
The old lady was the one who felt most embarrassed. Fang Minjun's face turned red with anger. She glanced at Su Jianqiang, but after thinking for a long time, she couldn't bring herself to scold him. In the end, she could only sigh and shake her head helplessly.
A dozen minutes later, everyone recovered from the shock and turned their gazes to Lin Fan. Instead of looking up to him, they looked at him with even more disdain.
If it weren't for that good-for-nothing Lin Fan, would we have had to endure this injustice?
Su Ruowei couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Lin Fan, how do you know celebrities?"
The sound was so soft that only Lin Fan, who was standing nearby, could hear it. Without hesitation, Lin Fan told Su Ruowei the whole story of how he met Yang Wanrou.
"So that's how it is." Su Ruo muttered softly, thinking that Lin Fan actually had the luck to bump into a big star and get to know him. Then, with a worried look, she asked:
What do you think of Yang Wanrou?
After saying this, Su Ruowei bit her lower lip, waiting for Lin Fan's reply.
"She's nowhere near as good as my wife!" Lin Fan laughed.
Upon hearing this answer, Su Ruowei's brows immediately relaxed, and her concerns were dispelled.
Lin Fan: "Are you jealous?"
Su Ruowei: No, I was just asking out of curiosity.
Shen Yunlan watched Su Ruowei and Lin Fan whispering to each other, feeling furious. However, at the banquet of the Lin family in Shancheng at Nanfeng Pavilion, the entire Su family had been criticized for their lack of manners, so she dared not say anything more.
But the next second, a man carrying a wine glass slowly walked over. Seeing him was more effective than taking a nitroglycerin pill for Shen Yunlan.
Shen Yunlan recognized him at a glance as Xiao Xingyan, one of Su Ruowei's most ardent suitors from another school during her high school years. Although his family was middle class, he consistently ranked at the top of his class academically.
When Xiao Xingyan was pursuing Su Ruowei, Su Ruowei didn't even know he existed. Shen Yunlan stopped all of Xiao Xingyan's love, and accepted all the gifts he gave her.
Shen Yunlan rejected Xiao Xingyan's contact with Su Ruowei because she saw that he did not come from a wealthy family. However, she later heard that Xiao Xingyan had gone abroad to study and returned to work for a large company.
"If this kid still likes Ruowei, he's definitely better than that good-for-nothing Lin Fan!" Shen Yunlan muttered to herself, then looked Xiao Xingyan up and down.
Wearing a full Zegna custom outfit, this kid's really made it big! Tall, rich, and handsome!
Shen Yunlan silently wished in her heart: Come here, come here!
As expected, Xiao Xingyan, holding a wine glass, went straight to table number 98.
After Xiao Xingyan stood still, everyone in the Su family cast questioning glances at him, each of them quickly searching their minds for their impression of this handsome man.
Especially Su Yulin, the only unmarried female junior in the Su family, fell in love at first sight with the well-dressed and elegant man in front of her.
"Handsome guy, who are you looking for?" Su Yulin asked with a lovesick look on her face.
Xiao Xingyan's gaze lingered on Su Yulin for a moment before he asked in a gentlemanly manner, "Miss, is Su Ruowei at this table?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes!" Shen Yunlan quickly stood up and shouted, then pointed at Su Ruo and smiled, "My daughter is here!"
Xiao Xingyan smiled slightly, walked past Su Yulin to Shen Yunlan, and said, "Auntie, it's been a long time. I'm Xiao Xingyan. Do you remember me?"
