The banquet lasted until nine o'clock at night. After Gao Xuan said it was time to call it a night, everyone reluctantly left.
The Su family members were all preparing to return to their respective homes. As they were leaving, Fang Minjun, still feeling somewhat unsatisfied, said at the banquet:
"This banquet marks the first step for our Su family into becoming a first-class family. From now on, the Su family must unite and attach great importance to this cooperation!"
The Su family must now prioritize the Lin family's project in Shancheng. No matter what, we must ensure this cooperation goes well!
Hearing the old lady say this, everyone in the Su family turned their attention to Su Jianqiang. Although Su Ruowei was the person in charge of the project, everyone knew that the future head of the Su family would only be Su Jianqiang!
"Don't worry, Grandma, I will fully cooperate with Ruowei. This collaboration must succeed!" Su Jianqiang said with a smile as he walked behind Fang Minjun and gently massaged the old lady's shoulders.
"We will cooperate fully!" the Su family members echoed.
Fang Minjun looked at the Su family members with satisfaction, then turned to Su Jianqiang and said in a very low voice, "Jianqiang, you must be patient. The Su family will be yours sooner or later."
Su Jianqiang's men worked even harder, whispering in response, "We'll do whatever Grandma says."
Amidst the envious gazes of the Su family members, the banquet ended at table number 98.
After the banquet ended, everyone understood that Su Ruowei deserved the most credit for being able to attend the Lin family's banquet in Shancheng, since she was in charge of the Shancheng Group project.
But as the party was about to end, the old lady's words seemed to remind the Su family that Su Jianqiang was the one they should rely on, and Su Ruowei was just being smug for a moment.
Su Jianqiang felt even more reassured. Moreover, Fang Minjun had already made an agreement with Su Ruowei that all the revenue from this project would go to the Su family, and the money would eventually end up in Su Jianqiang's pocket.
The next day, as usual, accompanied by Shen Yunlan's nagging, Lin Fan and Su Ruowei went to work.
As Lin Fan drove, he estimated the time. Before he arrived at Su Ruowei's company, just as he had expected, Su Ruowei's phone rang.
"Ruowei, come to Grandma's right now! It's urgent!" Su Zhengwu's voice was urgent on the other end of the phone.
Before Su Ruowei could ask any more questions, Su Zhengwu hung up the phone.
Lin Fan deliberately slowed down the car, waiting for Su Ruowei to give instructions.
"I'll go to the company later; I'll go to Grandma's first," Su Ruowei said.
Lin Fan smiled slightly, made a U-turn at the intersection, and drove towards Fang Minjun's villa.
"Lin Fan, my dad just called. He said something urgent needs me to go to Grandma's house. I'm a little worried," Su Ruowei said anxiously. Every time she suddenly went to Fang Minjun's place, it was never a good thing.
Lin Fan glanced at Su Ruowei, "I think it's a good thing, maybe they'll support you in business!"
Su Ruowei shook her head and said helplessly, "I'll be grateful if they don't trip me up, let alone support me."
“You’re now in charge of the project with Shancheng Group. They’re trying to curry favor with you, so why would they try to trip you up?” Lin Fan paused and then laughed, “If they were trying to trip you up, Shancheng Group wouldn’t let them off the hook either. Besides, Uncle Gao and I are so close.”
Hearing Lin Fan say this, Su Ruowei felt a little more at ease, but thinking of Gao Xuan, she couldn't help but feel extremely puzzled again.
Su Ruowei glanced at Lin Fan and asked, "Lin Fan, are you hiding something from me?"
"What could I possibly be hiding from you?" Lin Fan said as he drove.
Su Ruowei seemed thoughtful and asked, "What about your background, and your relationship with Gao Xuan?"
“Gao Xuan is my father’s friend, I’ve mentioned that before.” Lin Fan thought for a moment and then said, “Actually, there are things I’ve been keeping from you.”
Su Ruowei's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "What is it?"
Lin Fan smiled slightly and said, "I've saved up quite a bit of money on the side."
"I thought it was something else." Su Ruowei sighed, and after a 30-second silence, she couldn't help but ask, "How much secret savings do you have?"
"President Su is curious about this?" Lin Fan said jokingly.
Su Ruowei turned her head to the side, acting a little petulant, and said, "I'm not curious."
Lin Fan glanced tentatively at Su Ruowei and whispered, "Then I'll tell you."
Unexpectedly, Su Ruowei immediately turned to look at Lin Fan, and when she saw that Lin Fan was also looking at her, the atmosphere became awkward once again.
"How dangerous! Watch where you're going!" Su Ruowei said, puffing out her cheeks.
"Okay, watch the road." Lin Fan continued to look ahead, saying, "I still have 200 million yuan of my own savings."
Lin Fan wasn't entirely lying. The 2 million yuan was left to him by Lin Ping'an before Tianwang Group went bankrupt. Lin Fan would find this money three years later. He had tried to make a comeback with this money, but he still couldn't bring down Lin Qingshan.
But it doesn't matter now. Lin Fan knows where the money is, but he's too lazy to go get it. Lin Qingshan has already fallen from power.
"Two million!" Su Ruowei was astonished. She thought it was a few thousand, or at most tens of thousands, of her private savings. She never expected Lin Fan to say two million.
Su Ruowei had seen so much money before, but she had only ever seen seven-figure sums in company accounts. She wouldn't even dare to dream of having such an amount in her personal pocket, at least not now.
After a moment, Su Ruowei's surprise turned into confusion, and she asked in bewilderment, "Then why are you still willing to do this?"
"How so?" Lin Fan asked with a smile.
Su Ruowei stammered, "I'm willing to be a live-in son-in-law, even though I have to listen to my mother nagging me every day."
"Hahaha." Lin Fan couldn't help but laugh out loud. Su Ruowei looked just like a naive child.
But then again, Su Ruowei is all about work and has no experience with relationships or the ups and downs of the business world.
Although the Su family treated Su Ruowei very badly, this favoritism also protected Su Ruowei in a roundabout way. Without experiencing the world, she would not experience the corresponding setbacks or encounter the corresponding darkness.
"What are you laughing at?" Su Ruowei asked.
"Nothing, I just suddenly find President Su kind of cute," Lin Fan said with a smile.
Su Ruowei turned her head to the side again, and said in a huff, "I don't like the word 'cute'! The highest compliment for a woman is having good temperament, followed by being beautiful. Only those who have neither good temperament nor beauty are called cute!"
"Haha, you're still adorable as always," Lin Fan laughed.
"Forget it, you don't understand." Su Ruowei sighed and said, "Don't mention your secret stash of money to my parents, or they'll come after you for it."
Hearing Su Ruowei's words, Lin Fan suddenly realized that Shen Yunlan's greedy nature would indeed lead her to do such a thing.
"You've told Mom about me working as a bodyguard, right?" Lin Fan asked, frowning.
Lin Fan thought to himself that he and Su Ruowei had always worked together, and Shen Yunlan hadn't said much, so she must know that he was now Su Ruowei's bodyguard.
