Chapter 218 Anecdotes about Coffee Shops
Lin Fan drove away from the Lingjueding villa.
As soon as Lin Fan stepped outside, he realized that he didn't seem to have anywhere to go for entertainment.
After thinking for a while, Lin Fan decided to go to the coffee shop instead; it would be awkward to go straight home like this.
After arriving at the familiar coffee shop, Lin Fan ordered a latte and sat down in a corner.
He randomly picked a book from the bookshelf, and the cover read "Magic Brain".
A book explaining the principles of magic? Lin Fan became somewhat interested in it.
This book, "Magic Brain," is divided into 19 categories based on the different effects of magic, basically summarizing the principles of all magic in the world. It is also known as the first extraordinary book in the magic world.
Lin Fan was so engrossed in the book that he quickly became absorbed in it.
"Hey, isn't this Lin Fan? Long time no see!"
A voice rang in Lin Fan's ear. Lin Fan looked up and saw a beautiful blonde woman with blue eyes.
Her blonde hair was dyed, her blue eyes were from colored contact lenses, and she was quite attractive, with curves in all the right places.
However, Lin Fan didn't seem to remember him.
"Who are you?" Lin Fan asked, puzzled.
"Who am I?" The woman's eyes widened in disbelief. "You've even forgotten me?"
After a few seconds, the woman covered her face and laughed: "I know, you don't dare to recognize me, after all, Young Master Lin's family went bankrupt and he became someone else's live-in son-in-law."
"It's really a different time now!"
Lin Fan thought for a few seconds, but couldn't recall anything: "I really don't know you—"
The woman scoffed, "That's ridiculous. What's the point of putting on an act?"
Lin Fan noticed the gazes of those around him, a mixture of envy and longing.
Indeed, the woman in front of me is quite stunning. Upon closer inspection, she's wearing a backless dress, and I suspect many people around me are drawn to her bare, white back.
However, Lin Fan wasn't interested; he just felt that this woman was a bit strange.
The woman didn't seem uncomfortable at all when she noticed the stares from others; instead, she started to pose and strike deliberately.
She relished the sense of accomplishment that this gaze brought her.
"Do you have anything else to say? If not, please leave. You're bothering me," Lin Fan said without any mercy.
Hearing this, the woman became somewhat agitated: "Lin Fan, how dare you be so ungrateful! It's an honor for you that I struck up a conversation with you!"
"Little sister, he's being ungrateful. Let your brother keep you company!"
The speaker was a tall and imposing man who had somehow gotten behind the woman.
His lewd gaze lingered on the woman's cleavage and legs.
The man's action startled the woman, who quickly moved back and covered her collar with her hand.
She shouted, "Honey, come here quickly!"
A man in a suit rushed over from behind the bar and stood in front of the woman.
The man in the suit shouted angrily, "Who the hell are you, daring to mess with my woman?"
The woman tugged at the man in the suit's arm from behind, pouting, "Honey, I'm scared—"
"Your woman is so promiscuous, she seduced me first!"
The burly man chuckled again, looking at the man in the suit who was a head shorter than him. Thinking that the man would be no match for him if a fight broke out, he became even more unrestrained.
He stepped forward and tried to touch the woman's hand: "Beautiful lady, come and have a cup of tea with me."
In the blink of an eye, the man in the suit grabbed the burly man's groping hand.
With a sudden burst of force, a 'crack' was heard, and the burly man's wrist broke.
With a loud cry of "Ah!", the burly man jumped up in pain, clutching his broken right hand with his left.
Despite his pain, he didn't forget to utter a threat: "Do you even know who I am? Believe me or not, I can wipe you out in a minute."
Everyone else in the coffee shop looked on curiously, never expecting to see such a farce in a coffee shop in this day and age.
A moment later, someone recognized the man and said in surprise to their friend, "Isn't that Hu Junyi from the Tianlan Sect? I heard he's a powerful expert from the Tianlan Sect!"
"Oh! It really is him. Isn't he also the president of the Hu Group? He just took over his father's position two months ago."
"The woman next to him is his wife, Liu Ziqing. She used to be the campus belle of Shancheng University!"
The burly man turned pale upon hearing this, never expecting his opponent to be so formidable; he had met his match!
Hu Junyi sneered, "I don't know who you are, but I think you should know who I am!"
"I understand, Mr. Hu, please don't hold it against me!" The burly man immediately backed down.
Hu Junyi shouted angrily, "Get out of here now!"
The burly man clutched his arm and left the coffee shop in a disheveled state.
Lin Fan heard it clearly; he recognized the name Hu Junyi.
In order to better manage the business, Lin Fan investigated all the top 20 companies in Shancheng City, and the Hu Group ranked 4th on the list of companies in Shancheng City.
I never expected that Hu Junyi was a master from a sect. I remember that Tianlan Sect was also the sect that Di Xiaoyun belonged to.
After leaving the police station, Lin Fan also investigated Di Xiaoyun's background.
As for Liu Ziqing, Lin Fan remembered her. She was his classmate from the same school. Back when Tianwang Group was still in business, Liu Ziqing had pursued him.
However, Lin Fan already had someone he loved, so he didn't agree.
"Don't be afraid, honey, I'm here."
Hu Junyi comforted Liu Ziqing, then his gaze fell on Lin Fan sitting to the side: "Is this your friend?"
Liu Ziqing's earlier fear had vanished. She looked at Lin Fan with pitiful eyes and sneered:
"Not a friend, this person is a celebrity. Do you remember Lin Fan?"
Hu Junyi suddenly realized: "Oh! That good-for-nothing son-in-law? The master of living off his wife, the one who followed her to the top of the Lingjueding villa?"
Liu Ziqing covered her face and laughed: "That's right, it's him, except he's also my college classmate. He's really a disgrace to our alma mater!"
"Stay away from him, don't get any more bad luck on him!" Hu Junyi said with a smile.
Liu Ziqing nodded. She had wanted to mock Lin Fan again, but after hearing what Hu Junyi said, she decided against it, lest she lose face.
Before leaving, Liu Ziqing glared at Lin Fan, thinking that she really wanted to crush him if she had the chance, to get revenge for being rejected back then.
Lin Fan seemed indifferent, continuing to drink his coffee until he could go home before 6 o'clock.
Before going home, Lin Fan confirmed the plans for tomorrow at Huafu in Shancheng with Gao Xuan to ensure that the spot could only go to Su Ruowei.
Before 6 o'clock, Lin Fan was already on his way home. Before going home, he specially went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients, planning to cook for Su Ruowei to treat her that evening.
Inside the villa at the top of the mountain, Lin Fan put the groceries in the refrigerator as soon as he returned, and then went to the bedroom.
As Lin Fan approached the bedroom, he heard a commotion inside, including a conversation between Su Ruowei and Gu Xinyan, as well as the sound of their glasses clinking.
Su Ruowei, drunk, shouted, "Alcohol emboldens cowards, come and drink!"
"Ruowei, believe me, you'll definitely be victorious tomorrow!" Gu Xinyan picked up a beer bottle and started chugging it straight from the bottle.
what's the situation?
Lin Fan pushed open the door and saw the two people sitting around the table, eating delicious food and drinking beer.
"Hey! Lin Fan's back! I'm throwing a farewell party for Ruowei!"
Gu Xinyan held up the bottle and shook it: "Would you like to have a drink too?"
