"Good for you, Lin Fan, good for you, Su Jinjin!"
"Letâs see how long you can stay arrogant!"
"Now I endure humiliation, all for the Su Family!"
"One day, when my Su Family rises, I swear to avenge todayâs shame!"
Madam Suâs face was full of anger.
In Su Jinjinâs home.
Finally seeing off Madam Su, Su Jinjin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When she looked up, she saw Lin Fanâs gaze had fallen on her mother, Zheng Xueâe.
Su Jinjin couldnât help but smile bitterly inside.
She knew that Lin Fanâs dislike for her mother was no less than for Madam Su.
Zheng Xueâe felt Lin Fanâs gaze, incredibly ashamed, but she was thick-skinned, soon reacting and lifting her head to show an awkward smile.
"Little Fan, Auntie wronged you back then, Iâm apologizing to you now, hoping to get your forgiveness." Zheng Xueâe proactively said.
This Zheng Xueâe is Su Jinjinâs mom, and for the sake of Su Jinjin, Lin Fan wouldnât hold it against her too much.
Lin Fan said indifferently, "Youâre apologizing not because you realize your mistake, but because I have money now. If I became poor again, youâd still treat me the same as before."
Lin Fanâs blunt truth made Zheng Xueâe embarrassed, her face red with shame.
Lin Fan continued, "However, I will accept your apology because I will make sure you never have the chance to treat me like that again."
He would never become poor again, thus Zheng Xueâe would no longer have the chance to look down on him. She would always bow her head to him like now!
Although Lin Fanâs words werenât pleasant, they secretly made Zheng Xueâe happy.
She didnât wish for Lin Fan to return to how he was; if Lin Fan remained wealthy, she couldnât wish for more.
As long as Lin Fan was there as their strong backing, their position in the Su Family would be unshakable, not even needing to pay attention to Madam Su!
Another reason was, indeed, her thick skin.
"Little Fan, itâs good that youâre willing to forgive Auntie. By the way, have you had dinner yet? Auntie made dumplings this morning; how about I cook some for you?" Zheng Xueâe laughed awkwardly.
With her mother being so thick-skinned, Su Jinjin felt a bit embarrassed.
The way she used to treat Lin Fan, did she really think everyone had forgotten?
But seeing Zheng Xueâe like this, as long as she wasnât embarrassed, others would be.
Lin Fan chuckled, "No need, Jinjin and I already had dinner. Itâs getting late; I should get going."
Zheng Xueâe said, "Youâre leaving? So late, why not stay over for the night?"
"Mom!" Su Jinjin blushed with embarrassment.
Their house wasnât big, just two rooms: one for Zheng Xueâe and her husband, and one for Su Jinjin.
Lin Fan staying over for the night had obvious implications, needing no further clarification.
Su Jinjin stole a glance at Lin Fan, feeling both shy and inexplicably a bit expectant.
But Lin Fan naturally said, "No, I have things to do. You should rest early."
Ultimately, Lin Fan bid farewell and left.
Seeing this, Su Jinjin felt inexplicably disappointed. Lin Fan not staying for the night must mean he hasnât completely moved on from the past, so he excused himself with work.
"Fan, itâs okay. After all these years, itâs fine. I can wait. I will definitely wait until the day you completely let go inside."
Su Jinjin cheered herself on inside.
In fact, Lin Fan really hadnât thought that much.
He indeed had something to do.
As for his feelings toward Su Jinjin, Lin Fan was very calm now. In his eyes, Su Jinjin was like family, and maybe one day, he would reignite his love for her, or maybe it would always be like this, leaving it to fate.
But no matter what, he would treat Su Jinjin as family.
Riding an electric bike, Lin Fan left Su Jinjinâs residential area.
A corner cafe.
Riding the bike, Lin Fan arrived to see a middle-aged man standing at the cafe door, waiting.
He Chen!
The once rocket prodigy!
Because of one failure, He Chen was betrayed and, after getting involved in a lawsuit, was wrongfully imprisoned for a year. After his release, he was totally broken, only able to work on a factory production line, only to discover he couldnât even do that well.
Today at Pengyu Toy Factory, the former rocket prodigy was bullied by a drop-out just because he was slow and facing elimination.
Fallen this low, how could He Chen be willing!
In the factory canteen, Lin Fanâs words struck like thunder in He Chenâs heart, churning inside him.
Lin Fan, a young mega wealthy man, capable of casually buying a $3 billion mansion, a $6 billion island, a $10 billion skyscraper, and a $50 billion aviation company.
He didnât know the extent of Lin Fanâs wealth, but he was undoubtedly a super wealthy individual!
This super wealthy individual told He Chen he wanted to establish a space division at Celestial Aviation to enter the space field and develop rockets!
This super wealthy individual also told He Chen that he had hired the countryâs top legal team to overturn He Chenâs case and clear his name!
Most importantly, this super wealthy individual wanted He Chen to make a comeback, giving him a chance to reconnect with his lifeâs passion, the rockets he loved!
Although He Chen didnât immediately agree to Lin Fan, his heart was already tumultuous.
He didnât immediately agree mainly because the last failure hit him too hard, almost completely breaking him. He couldnât bear another such blow.
However, after a day of internal struggle, his inner desire finally won.
So he called Lin Fan.
Afterward, Lin Fan arranged to meet him at this cafe via a message.
Lin Fan said he had something and left the Su Family to meet with He Chen.
"Mr. Lin." Seeing Lin Fan, He Chen greeted him excitedly.
Lin Fan smiled, "Sorry, something came up and caused a delay. Have you been waiting long, Mr. He?"
He Chen said, "Itâs fine, no matter how long, I would wait for Mr. Lin to arrive."
Lin Fan laughed, "Looks like youâre really ready to come and help me."
With a thud!
He Chen knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you, Mr. Lin, for giving me the opportunity. I wonât let you down. From now on, Iâm willing to give my all to repay Mr. Lin!"
He Chen was truly determined to follow Lin Fan, as it was his only chance to turn things around.
Lin Fan felt joyful, recruiting He Chen was part of the systemâs task. The system saw potential in He Chen, which meant he must be valuable.
Lin Fan said, "Alright then, I look forward to your future performance. How about this, come to Celestial Aviation tomorrow, and Iâll announce it then."
The next day.
In the morning.
The board of Celestial Aviation suddenly received a notice from Lin Fan that he wanted to hold a board meeting!
During this meeting, Lin Fan introduced He Chen to everyone and announced on the spot the formation of a space division to advance into the space field.
As soon as the news came out, the board meeting immediately erupted.
