Chapter 19

Because of a phone call from Su Hongyuan, the Hanghu police launched an investigation into Zhang Lin's fraud against Su Jindi. After three days of relentless effort, they not only clarified the matter but also uncovered Zhang Lin's previous fraudulent activities.

However, since some of the matters involved too many secrets and a wide range of people, the top official of the Hanghu police communicated with Su Hongyuan. They reached an agreement and then informed some key figures from the interest group behind Zhang Lin.

After completing these coordination efforts, the Hanghu police held a press conference on the evening of the third day, announcing that Zhang Lin had been arrested on suspicion of fraud. This not only stripped Zhang Lin of his halo but also sent him straight to prison!

Once the news was released, it caused a stir in Hanghu City and even sparked a huge wave on the internet.

However—

The main character, Ye Fan, did not pay attention to any of this.

In the past three days, apart from spending an hour each day helping Su Yuxin eliminate the yin energy in her body, he mostly wandered around Hanghu City, especially enjoying places with high foot traffic like squares and pedestrian streets.

"Brother Ye, CC Bar is one of the top bars in Hanghu, with many beautiful women, most of whom are from the China Academy of Art. Not only do they have big breasts and firm butts, but their skin is so tender it seems to drip with water..."

As night fell, Su Jindi drove his flashy Lamborghini out of Jiuxi Rose Garden, enthusiastically introducing CC Bar, focusing on the girls inside. It felt as if those girls were celestial maidens, so alluring and tempting, as if he was deliberately trying to lure Ye Fan.

Lure him?

Yes!

To improve his relationship with Ye Fan, Su Jindi had asked Su Liuli, Su Yuxin, and Uncle Fu about Ye Fan, receiving three different answers.

Su Liuli told him that Ye Fan was a scoundrel.

Su Yuxin told him that Ye Fan was a good person—despite Su Liuli's embellished account of that night, Su Yuxin still trusted her own judgment.

Uncle Fu told him that Ye Fan was not only a divine doctor but also a martial arts master. According to Uncle Fu, Ye Fan didn't sweat even in 40-degree heat...

At that moment, hearing this, Su Jindi, who loved martial arts, was utterly amazed!

He had always wanted to find a great master to learn martial arts but had never succeeded.

In this situation, the appearance of Ye Fan, a martial arts expert, was like a snowball in a snowstorm, making him immediately think of becoming Ye Fan's disciple to learn martial arts!

However—

Su Jindi knew that Ye Fan had a bad impression of him, so he did not rush into it. Instead, he planned to gradually improve Ye Fan's impression of him before bringing up the idea of becoming a disciple.

To change Ye Fan's impression of him, Su Jindi had been following Ye Fan like a shadow for the past three days, acting as his free tour guide—wherever Ye Fan went, he followed!

After three days of interaction, Su Jindi noticed that Ye Fan's attitude towards him had improved and began his second plan: taking Ye Fan to a nightclub to play with girls.

First, he had learned from Su Liuli that Ye Fan was 'lecherous' and knew the importance of catering to his interests. Additionally, he knew that sharing a classroom, a gun, a brothel, and a crime were the four great bonds of brotherhood. If he and Ye Fan played with girls together, they would become close friends, and Ye Fan would feel obligated to teach him martial arts.

Faced with Su Jindi's eloquent praise of the girls at CC Bar, Ye Fan remained unmoved, his gaze fixed on the window, looking at the dazzling night view of Hanghu City.

He agreed to go to the bar with Su Jindi not because of the women but because he wanted to experience and adapt to more aspects of ordinary life.

Damn, did Su Liuli give me false information?

Even if I describe those women as the best in the world, Brother Ye doesn't seem interested?

Seeing Ye Fan's indifference, Su Jindi was heartbroken.

"Unsolicited kindness is either a trick or a trap—what are you up to by being so nice to me?" Ye Fan suddenly turned his gaze and asked coldly.

Although he didn't know what Su Jindi was thinking, through their interactions, he could see that Su Jindi was trying his best to please him.

This made him somewhat puzzled.

After all, he had already agreed to stay and treat Su Yuxin, so Su Jindi had no reason to be so eager to please him, even following him everywhere except when sleeping.

"Ah... Brother Ye, you misunderstood. I was just introducing the bar we're going to tonight."

Startled by Ye Fan's words, Su Jindi shook his head vigorously and then, changing his tone, habitually flattered, "Of course, I know that someone as handsome and charming as Brother Ye wouldn't be interested in those ordinary girls..."

Seeing that Su Jindi was unwilling to speak, Ye Fan did not press further.

As Su Jindi said, CC Bar, located not far from West Lake, was one of the top bars in Hanghu. The reason for this was not only that the waitresses were students from the China Academy of Art in uniform but also because the bar was luxuriously decorated and had second-tier celebrities and world-class DJs performing every month!

The reason Su Jindi chose to take Ye Fan to CC Bar tonight was that it was the bar's 'Celebrity Night.'

Because it was 'Celebrity Night,' the private rooms were booked out long ago, and by 9 PM, the parking lot was full, and the bar was packed. Not only were the regular seats on the first floor fully occupied, but the VIP rooms on the second floor were almost full as well.

Among them, the VIP room directly above the dance floor was the best in the bar, a symbol of status—only the top sons and big bosses of Hanghu could book it, and even if others had the money, they couldn't.

Since it was early, the dance floor was almost empty. Men sipped their drinks, occasionally chatting with their companions about which women had the biggest breasts, the best figures, and the whitest legs. Women mostly held their heads high, posing in what they thought was a noble and stylish manner, occasionally playing with their phones, sipping their drinks, or stealing glances at the men who were paying attention to them.

Of course, this did not include the bar's hostesses—whenever a customer entered, they would immediately look at them, not at their faces but at their attire and presence, to judge their wealth and potential tips.

In addition, both men and women would occasionally glance at the VIP room on the second floor.

In the VIP room, two men and four women were seated. The men were distinguished and well-dressed, while the women were beautiful and sexy, revealing without being vulgar.

Among them, Su Feiyu, the heir apparent of the Su family, sat in the middle of the VIP room, leaning back on the sofa like a king, looking down at the guests on the first floor.

The two girls sitting next to him were both car models and rare twins, the top hostesses of CC Bar.

However—

Faced with such beautiful women who could make ordinary men go to great lengths, Su Feiyu seemed to have little interest.

The young man sitting to Su Feiyu's left was named Gou Wei, also from a wealthy family, known as 'Dog Boy' in the Hanghu rich kids' circle, and a loyal follower of Su Feiyu.

Originally, he was gambling in an underground casino in Hanghu today. Upon receiving a call from Su Feiyu and learning that Su Feiyu was in a bad mood, he hurriedly drove to CC Bar.

"Since your father said that Su Yuxin, that bitch, can't pose a threat to you, why are you still angry?"

Seeing Su Feiyu's low spirits, Gou Wei signaled with his eyes, and after the four girls left, he poured a glass of Lafite for Su Feiyu and asked with a puzzled look.

Su Feiyu picked up the glass, gently turning it, and looked at Gou Wei, "You should know about Zhang Lin, right?"

"I know. I heard that guy was sent to prison for defrauding your family." Gou Wei lit a cigarette and replied.

Su Feiyu narrowed his eyes, his tone very displeased, "Although Zhang Lin isn't a big shot, he has considerable influence. Just because he defrauded Su Yuxin, that little bitch, of money for her treatment, my grandfather took the risk of angering the people behind Zhang Lin and sent him to prison—doesn't he value that bitch too much?"

"Even if your grandfather dotes on that bitch, it won't help—property is traditionally passed down to sons, not daughters, and she's half a step away from the underworld."

Although he said this, Gou Wei understood that Su Feiyu had been suppressed by Su Yuxin for nearly two years. Now that he had finally turned the tables because of Su Yuxin's strange illness, he found that the old man still favored Su Yuxin. Even knowing that Su Yuxin wouldn't threaten his position as the heir, he was still annoyed.

Hearing this, Su Feiyu's mood did not improve but worsened. He looked grim and said, "You don't know, that bitch's illness can be cured now!"

"It can be cured?" Gou Wei was shocked, "Didn't the medical experts already pronounce her dead?"

"I thought she was a goner too, but some quack doctor appeared out of nowhere and can treat her illness." Su Feiyu said darkly, as if he wished Su Yuxin would go to the underworld as soon as possible.

"Brother Su, if what you say is true, your grandfather took the risk of offending people to send Zhang Lin to prison because he saw that Su Yuxin's condition had improved and wanted to comfort her to boost her morale and have her continue managing the Su family's affairs?" Although Gou Wei was known as 'Dog Boy,' he was not stupid and immediately understood Su Feiyu's meaning.

"Um."

Su Feiyu nodded, and the image of Ye Fan flashed in his mind, making him feel a bit irritated. If Ye Fan hadn't suddenly appeared, he wouldn't be so depressed now.

Gou Wei smiled sinisterly, "Brother Su, actually, it's very simple to get back at her."

"How so?" Su Feiyu's pupils dilated slightly.

"Target that quack doctor."

Gou Wei sneered, cutting to the chase, "If you control that quack doctor, you'll have control over Su Yuxin's life. That way, Su Yuxin will become your toy, to play with as you please!"

Originally, although Su Feiyu was angry, he had been reminded by his father, Su Ming, to avoid angering Su Hongyuan and had not planned to do anything to Su Yuxin.

At this moment, hearing Gou Wei's suggestion, Su Feiyu's heart stirred!
