It was meant to be her trump card, so why did Lin Fan look so thrilled?
"Have you forgotten that in numerous scripts, the tales include wealthy families feuding internally over assets? Now, this is a real-life version of the strife, a hot topic online. Let’s broadcast the entire process live and fiercely fight a lawsuit with Goldman Sachs Group. Such a melodramatic plot will definitely spark significant attention, and all this will pave your pathway," Lin Fan explained, holding Gao Min’s delicate hand, "However, the reputation of Goldman Sachs Group will be utterly ruined if this gets out, so we must cherish this opportunity to play it to the full. When everyone starts denouncing Goldman Sachs Group, that’s when you’ll achieve fame and success."
Lin Fan’s words made Lv Pingping frown, as he had turned her trump card into a stepping stone. If things really spiraled out of control as he described, no one could ensure that his words wouldn’t come true.
"Who do you think you are, trying to fight against Goldman Sachs Group? Don’t overestimate yourself," Lv Pingping said with internal panic but outward scorn. "Don’t think that being sharp-tongued makes you invincible. Remember, our family’s internal issues are resolved internally. If an outsider like you gets involved, the nature of the matter changes. Then, don’t blame me for not warning you; human life has its price."
"Human life has a price, is that a threat?"
Lin Fan laughed, pulled out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, exhaled slowly, and then looked at Lv Pingping. "Now, I just want to confirm one thing. Everything done by Gao Min—is it your idea, or Goldman Sachs’s idea?"
"I’m Goldman Sachs’ wife. Do you think there’s a difference between his ideas and mine?"
Lv Pingping stared solemnly at Lin Fan.
"Fine, if that’s the case, then we’ll see each other later. Next time we meet, I hope you can still retain this arrogance."
Lin Fan took Gao Min’s hand and decided it would be futile to talk more with Lv Pingping—it was better to wait and discuss with Goldman Sachs. But as he was about to leave, Gao Yan suddenly came storming over from outside the pool.
"You bastard, do you remember me?"
"Oh, isn’t this dear uncle?"
Lin Fan smiled at Gao Yan, hugging Gao Min closer. "If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have had the chance to meet Gao Min. So, our marital fate should really thank you."
"What... Since you’ve gotten Gao Min, why haven’t you broken up with Yao Wan Jiao?"
Watching their intimate actions, Gao Yan asked angrily.
"Who said I haven’t broken up? I’ve already declared our separation unilaterally, but unfortunately, Yao Wan Jiao wouldn’t agree, so at most, we’re just back together," Lin Fan shrugged, his ruffian-like demeanor infuriated Gao Yan, who couldn’t help but roll up his sleeves.
"You’re lying. Yao Wan Jiao is destined to be my woman. She wouldn’t fancy a poor guy who drives domestic cars like you... I get it now, you must have threatened her to keep her from leaving you, haven’t you? I warn you, you’ve crossed my red line!"
"Your red line? Do you have psoriasis?"
Lin Fan rolled his eyes in disgust. "Such naive talk you have, and ’destined to be your woman’? Think about it, has she ever cared about you?"
"That’s my business and has nothing to do with you. You’d better keep your distance from Yao Wan Jiao, or I’ll crush you to dust!"
Gao Yan clenched his fists fiercely, his face trembling, looking as if he was summoning some Cultivation Technique, making Lin Fan feel awkward. Hugging Gao Min’s smooth shoulder, he whispered, "Gao Min, this guy isn’t a product of inbreeding, is he? Why does speaking to him lower one’s intelligence?"
Gao Min just shook her head with a wry smile. Though Gao Yan’s intelligence was slightly lacking, it wasn’t severe enough to be noticeable most of the time. However, his current performance was hard to ignore.
"What’s going on, Yan Yan?"
At that moment, Lv Pingping approached, looking puzzled. Seeing his mother, Gao Yan immediately found his refuge and pointed at Lin Fan, "Mom... he stole Yao Wan Jiao... he even kissed her... I’ve said I’d exchange my sister for her... but he still won’t give Yao Wan Jiao to me!"
After hearing this, Lv Pingping’s eyes flashed with anger. "Gao Min, I never thought you could double-cross your own family !"
"Do you even understand human speech?"
Lin Fan scoffed coldly. "Do you really think having money means you can do whatever you want, suggesting such a thing as trading your sister for my girlfriend?"
"Who are you to lecture me?"
Lv Pingping’s face darkened, and as she spoke, the previous butler came up behind Lin Fan, accompanied by five or six men dressed in security uniforms, clearly with bad intentions.
