Chapter 383: This Lin Fan, Particularly Unambitious

Lin Fan is now the live-in son-in-law of the Wei Family. Theoretically, this is his home, so naturally, he can come back to live here.

Wei Dazong and Li Xueyan couldn’t stop him; after all, they couldn’t bear to let Wei Qingxue live in the urban village. If they stopped Lin Fan, Wei Qingxue might leave with him.

In fact, on one hand, Wei Qingxue didn’t want to live in the urban village. On the other hand, she also didn’t want Lin Fan to move into the house.

She and Lin Fan are a fake couple; how could they live together? It’s so inconvenient.

But Lin Fan proposed it, and she couldn’t say no. Otherwise, the truth would be exposed, so she had to live with Lin Fan.

This way, her parents definitely wouldn’t doubt their relationship and would think they are truly in love.

Thinking of sleeping in the same room with Lin Fan made Wei Qingxue blush and her heart race. She had never shared a room with a man before.

For Wei Dazong and his wife, letting Lin Fan stay at home didn’t mean they accepted him as the live-in son-in-law. They would still find ways to make them divorce.

Wei Dazong’s original plan was to negotiate privately with Lin Fan. As long as they divorced, he could plead for Wei Qingxue in front of Elder Wei, thus likely gaining the old man’s forgiveness.

But it has been proven that they cannot handle Lin Fan.

So they could only find another way.

"Qingxue, tomorrow is your grandpa’s birthday banquet. You also need to go and apologize to him in person to seek his forgiveness," Wei Dazong said.

Wei Qingxue bitterly smiled and said, "Will Grandpa really forgive me?"

Wei Dazong said, "You are his favorite granddaughter, and he has always had high hopes for you. It was he who insisted on you becoming the president back then. You are still the best candidate for the company president, and he will definitely forgive you."

Wei Dazong had already decided to use a second method: first, make Elder Wei forgive Wei Qingxue. Today, he would personally go to plead with Elder Wei.

Wei Qingxue said, "For Grandpa to forgive me, I must solve the company’s difficulties. But I will never remarry Ma Jialiang."

Li Xueyan said, "Silly child, what can you do? Can you be more capable than your grandpa? Your grandpa has tried every possible way, but he can’t fill this 1 billion-dollar hole. In the end, he only found the Ma Family, and you refuse to remarry..."

Lin Fan laughed, "Mother-in-law, there’s no way Qingxue and I will divorce, so don’t think about breaking us up."

Li Xueyan rolled her eyes, unwilling to deal with Lin Fan.

Lin Fan laughed and said, "As for the company’s difficulties, I’ve already said I’ll help solve them."

Li Xueyan couldn’t bear it anymore and said, "No one would think you’re mute if you don’t speak. Is this the time for jokes? And your joke isn’t funny at all, it’s really annoying!"

Wei Qingxue sighed and said, "Lin Fan, don’t joke like that."

She thought Lin Fan was trying to lighten the mood, but the joke wasn’t funny at all. Lin Fan, a courier, couldn’t possibly help.

Lin Fan smiled and said no more, but he already had a plan in his mind.

This was a task given by the system, and he had to complete it.

Ring ring ring...

Just then, Lin Fan’s phone rang. It was Zhao Jiayi calling.

"Chairman, there is a board meeting at 1 pm today. Can you attend?" Zhao Jiayi asked.

Lin Fan said, "I can."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Fan stood up and said, "You guys continue eating, I have to go to work."

This place is a bit far from the airline company’s headquarters. If he rides his e-bike now, he should arrive just in time for the meeting.

Lin Fan turned to leave.

"Lin Fan!" Wei Qingxue called out to him from behind.

Lin Fan turned his head, "Hmm?"

Wei Qingxue bit her lip and said, "Come back early tonight..."

Lin Fan grinned, "I will."

Then he went out.

After Lin Fan left, Li Xueyan put down her chopsticks, feeling depressed.

"Daughter, I really don’t get it. How could you fall for a courier? Look at him going out to deliver parcels again. Aren’t you ashamed of this low-class job? You may not be embarrassed, but I am. How can I face the neighbors anymore, I can’t show my face," Li Xueyan said, wishing Wei Qingxue would immediately divorce Lin Fan.

What she didn’t know was that Lin Fan was going out, not to deliver parcels, but to attend a board meeting of a company with a market value of 200 billion as its chairman.

If she knew, she’d probably be shocked.

Wei Qingxue said, "Mom, stop talking. If you keep talking about me and Lin Fan, I can only move out."

Li Xueyan was suffocating and said, "I’m full, I’m going back to my room for a nap!"

Wei Qingxue knew her mom wasn’t satisfied with Lin Fan, but she had no choice. She had her plan. Once she solved the company’s difficulties and Grandpa agreed she wouldn’t have to marry Ma Jialiang, she would naturally divorce Lin Fan.

Not yet.

Wei Dazong said, "Qingxue, don’t blame your mom. She’s only thinking of you. Marrying a courier won’t bring you happiness, and Lin Fan particularly lacks ambition!"

Wei Qingxue curiously asked, "Dad, why do you say that about Lin Fan?"

Wei Dazong said, "You were out buying groceries just now, so you didn’t know. I chatted with Lin Fan a bit. The guy is quite content to be our live-in son-in-law and takes pride in living off someone else. How can such a person have ambition?"

Wei Qingxue was taken aback and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She couldn’t be sure if Lin Fan was joking with her dad. If it was true, then Lin Fan indeed lacked ambition. Who would respect a man who lived off others?

Luckily, whether Lin Fan was serious or not, their relationship was fake. She wouldn’t really fall in love with Lin Fan.

She was confident she wouldn’t fall in love with Lin Fan. She was just asking for his help. A wealthy heiress and a courier at the bottom of society are simply not people who belong in the same world.

Wei Dazong said, "I won’t say more, lest you threaten to move out again. Just think it through yourself. I have to go out too."

He was going to find Elder Wei to secure an opportunity for Wei Qingxue.

The day passed like this.

By evening, Lin Fan came back from the company. As the live-in son-in-law, he was going to spend his first night in this new home.

After they had dinner, the two went into the room.

Seeing them enter the room and close the door, both Wei Dazong and Li Xueyan felt uncomfortable. They always harbored a fantasy that Wei Qingxue didn’t really like Lin Fan and was just using him as a shield.

But now, even that final fantasy had shattered.

Inside Wei Qingxue’s room.

Wei Qingxue had already climbed into bed, and Lin Fan also came to sit by the bed.

Wei Qingxue was immediately wary and said, "What are you doing?"

Lin Fan said, "Sleeping."

Wei Qingxue blushed and said, "You think you can sleep in the same bed as me? Dream on. You sleep on the floor; there’s a mat in the wardrobe!"

Saying that, Wei Qingxue tossed a pillow at Lin Fan.

Lin Fan made an "oh" sound and had no choice but to obediently sleep on the floor.

Wei Qingxue was uneasy. She lay there, unable to sleep, and after holding it in for a while, she finally reminded him, "Lin Fan, I’m warning you, don’t do anything bad while I’m asleep. We have a contract. If you..."

The sound of snoring...

Only then did Wei Qingxue realize that this guy Lin Fan had actually fallen asleep.

Wei Qingxue was happy and finally relaxed, falling asleep shortly after.

After she fell asleep, Lin Fan slowly opened his eyes and smiled slightly. He knew that she wasn’t at ease, so he had pretended to sleep earlier to let her rest assured.

Probably for a while in the future, he’ll have to play this little trick. Sigh, being a fake husband is often so plain and dull!
