84: Su Fan's intelligence acquisition

Slap! Slap! Slap!

“I’m… sorry, I’m so… sorry. I apologize, please… stop hitting me.”

Finally, Zhao Lei couldn't endure the continuous slaps and gave in.

Several of his front teeth had fallen out, and he begged for mercy, speaking incoherently.

Hearing this,

Lin Xuan stopped, rubbing his somewhat sore arm.

Sigh~~~

It seems slapping is also hard work!

On the other side,

Seeing Lin Xuan stop, even though Zhao Hu was still displeased, he could only cup his hands and force a smile, saying:

“For my son Zhao Lei’s rudeness, I apologize to Mr. Su and everyone here on his behalf.”

Zhao Hu said he was apologizing, but his eyes never left Su Fan.

Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that his concession was all because of Su Fan.

What made Zhao Hu uneasy was… no matter how he tried to show goodwill, Su Fan always kept his hands in his pockets, maintaining a poker face, making it impossible to guess his true thoughts.

And seeing Su Fan’s indifferent attitude,

He Yicheng and the others were practically dying of anxiety.

This guy is overdoing it with the pretense!

Does he really think he’s a Martial Arts Grandmaster?

Since Master Hu is offering a way out, why not quickly take the hint and end this incident?

Delays cause trouble!!!

“It’s nothing, nothing. Master Hu, there’s no need for this, it was all just a misunderstanding!”

“Now that the misunderstanding is cleared up, everyone is naturally happy. All right, we’ve been delayed for a bit too long.”

“Today is mainly to celebrate my girlfriend’s birthday. We still have things to do, so we’ll take our leave first.”

“…”

Pulling Kong Lian’s hand, He Yicheng just wanted to get away quickly.

As for the terrifying consequences if Master Hu found out the truth and sought revenge later… He Yicheng was unwilling to think about it now, or rather… he didn’t dare to think about it, he’d just take it one step at a time!

And hearing He Yicheng propose leaving, Kong Lian and his companions immediately seized the opportunity and responded enthusiastically.

They had long been impatient to leave here.

If they stayed any longer, they were truly afraid their little hearts couldn't take it!

This was too exciting!!!

They found a “fake” to put on airs in front of Master Hu, and in the end, they even managed to get away with it~~

This bizarre experience, if written as a thrilling story, might even be criticized by readers… [Your plot is too fake.]

And hearing everyone propose to leave, Zhao Hu didn’t react much; his target had always been Su Fan alone.

“Mr. Su, I wonder if you are free. May I invite you to a meal alone to show my sincere apology.”

Hearing Zhao Hu’s request, He Yicheng and the others were shocked. Leave Su Fan alone?

Wouldn’t the risk of exposure increase exponentially?!

“No! Su Fan is my bodyguard, how can he leave my side?”

Chen Kexin was the first to jump out and reject Zhao Hu’s suggestion.

After all, she was the one who got Su Fan into this mess.

How could she really leave Su Fan here alone now? What if something happened?!

Kong Lian and the others beside her exchanged glances.

Although they were afraid, they still gritted their teeth and stood up to support Chen Kexin.

“Master Hu. We are together, we agreed to celebrate the birthday together, no one can be missing.”

“Next time, Master Hu! Su Fan and I agreed to go for a foot massage later.”

“ヽ(￣ω￣(￣ω￣〃)ゝ”

“…”

Looking at the group of people who were constantly making excuses to help him decline, worried that something might happen to him,

Su Fan felt a long-lost warmth in his heart for some reason.

These rich second-generation kids are surprisingly good!

He hadn't experienced this feeling in a long time.

In the past, no matter where he went, he always faced everyone's ridicule alone, and there were no friends he could confide in by his side.

Now, so many people were standing up to speak for him.

This brought a slight smile to Su Fan’s originally expressionless face.

Tsk tsk tsk… Isn’t this scene a bit off?

A group of rich second-generation kids, originally cannon fodder villains,

Now, not only were they not humiliated by the protagonist, but they were speaking up for him instead?

This is truly a cow ringing a doorbell — awesome to the extreme.

Lin Xuan stroked his chin, a playful expression on his face.

“No need to worry. I also have something I want to discuss with Zhao Hu, you all go ahead!”

Su Fan raised his hand, first thanking everyone for their kindness, then stating that he would stay.

Regarding the Su Family’s affairs, he decided to gather some information from Zhao Hu… Seeing Su Fan’s firm attitude, although He Yicheng and the others were puzzled, they didn’t insist further.

At this moment, Chen Kexin frowned slightly and squeezed over.

“Then be careful. If anything happens, call me.”

“And take this for self-defense!”

After saying that,

Chen Kexin handed her red backpack to Su Fan, which contained her remaining two “ultimate weapons”… Finally,

The two groups temporarily parted ways, and Su Fan remained alone in the VIP room.

“Master Su, please sit, please sit.”

Zhao Hu was very attentive; he first invited Su Fan to the main seat.

Then he had A-Jian and the other subordinates help Zhao Lei out, and also sent Lin Jianjun and his son away.

Soon, only Su Fan and Zhao Hu were left in the private room.

“How did you recognize me?”

Su Fan was concise, asking his first question.

“Oh, that! I work for the Han Family, and Miss Han Xinqiao sent me your photo and asked us to find you.”

“By the way, Mr. Su… I took the liberty of informing Miss Han Xinqiao about your presence here.”

“She happens to be nearby and should arrive soon.”

“…”

Under Zhao Hu’s explanation, Su Fan finally understood the whole story.

However, this was not what he was most concerned about at the moment… “Tell me! Everything you know about the Su Family.”

“What is the current situation of the Su Family?”

After hearing Su Fan’s words, Zhao Hu was a bit confused.

The Su Family?

Why suddenly bring up the Su Family, which has nothing to do with this?

And you’re already on friendly terms with the Su Family’s son-in-law, so why do you need to ask me?

Nevertheless, despite his thoughts, Zhao Hu dared not be negligent in the face of Su Fan’s inquiry.

“The Su Family! You mean the Su Family that was once flourishing 5 years ago and is now gradually declining, right?”

“Mm!”

Hearing this, Su Fan’s blood pressure immediately rose.

But he still calmly nodded.

“The Su Family! It’s quite a difficult family…”

Next, under Zhao Hu’s brief description,

Su Fan gradually learned various news about the Su Family over the past few years.

“That young man who was standing next to you earlier… I remember his name is Lin Xuan!”

“He is the live-in son-in-law Su Shengtian found to bring good fortune to his Granddaughter, who is in a vegetative state.”

“If I remember correctly, the wedding date seems to be very soon…”
