Missed the Airport Pickup (First Update)

Missed the Airport Pickup (First Update)

As the car drove beneath a streetlamp, a figure suddenly ran out from the sidewalk.

Screech!!!

Luckily, Fan Yu had been highly focused on driving. Otherwise, he would have definitely hit them.

"Who the hell is that? Tired of living and throwing yourself at a car?"

Fan Yu frowned, pushed open the door, and got out.

But just then, under the dim streetlamp, a figure rushed out and swung a stick at Fan Yu's head with brutal force. If it connected, Fan Yu's skull would probably burst open.

Feeling the wind whistling toward him, Fan Yu tilted his head aside and dodged the blow, but the car window was smashed.

Being able to avoid such a dangerous strike was entirely thanks to the Body Sculpting rewarded by the system. Both his physical reaction speed and strength had improved dramatically, several times beyond that of an ordinary person.

"Fuck, missed him? Get him, all of you!"

An angry roar rang out beneath the streetlamp.

Seven or eight people charged out.

Each of them held either a steel pipe or a wooden stick, swinging wildly at Fan Yu.

Fan Yu took a deep breath, his expression grave. As he dodged left and right, he seized an opening and kicked a thug to the ground.

Then his fists flew in both directions, knocking several thugs down one after another.

Bang!

"Ow, fuck!"

Pfft!

"Ahhh, my head!"

Clang!

"Mmph..."

Fan Yu moved incredibly fast, swinging his fists without caring about any particular technique. It was just a wild flurry of punches, yet he sent the thugs sprawling in every direction.

After more than ten exchanges, Fan Yu was slightly out of breath, but the thugs were in far worse shape, lying on the ground with swollen, bruised faces and howling in pain.

He turned his head to look.

Under the streetlamp stood a stunned young man, so shaken that he could barely remain upright.

"Zhang Zhi?"

Fan Yu recognized the youth's face and spoke coldly.

After Fan Yu had nearly driven his father's company into bankruptcy and he had gone home only to receive a whipping, Zhang Zhi had been unwilling to accept it.

He had called Third Brother and several other thugs, found out where Fan Yu would be, and specifically waited here to teach him a lesson.

Who would have thought that seven or eight people would be taken down by Fan Yu alone?

With an icy expression, Fan Yu picked up an iron bar and walked toward Zhang Zhi.

"D-Don't, don't, brother, I was wrong."

Forget running—Zhang Zhi was practically about to wet himself.

Bang!!!

A miserable scream tore through the night sky.

"Run!"

"What? Third Brother, are we just leaving Brother Zhang?"

"Idiot, you dare to stay and help him? He got beaten into that state. If we go back, won't we get punished too? Fuck, I knew we shouldn't have gotten involved in this."

"Third Brother, are we really leaving?"

"If we don't, do you fucking want to live here? That guy is ruthless and doesn't waste words. He's definitely not someone to mess with. Good thing there aren't any cameras here. Get everyone up and get the hell out."

The thugs got to their feet and ran off in a flash.

After dealing with Zhang Zhi, Fan Yu called Liu Jian.

"Hello, Boss."

Although he had already gone to bed, Liu Jian immediately answered when he saw Fan Yu calling.

"Zhang Zhi ambushed me with some people. Come deal with it," Fan Yu said in a deep voice.

Liu Jian was nearly scared to death. "Boss, are you all right? Where are you now?"

"I'm fine. I'm on the road from downtown to the Moon Lake Villa Area. Tell Zhang Zhi's father to come over and hand over the company shares."

"If Zhang Sheng refuses, take it through the courts. There's a dashcam in my car. These people are enough to be classified as an organized group, and it can be treated as robbery."

"If Zhang Sheng won't hand over the shares, throw his son in prison. He can forget about seeing his son again for the rest of his life."

"Find a good lawyer to handle it."

Before long, Liu Jian arrived with five or six security guards. Fan Yu took the car keys and drove off in another Mercedes-Benz.

Fan Yu did not wake until late the next morning.

Liu Jian had already taken care of what Fan Yu had instructed him to do the previous night. All the shares of Pingtai Financial Company, the entire company, now belonged to him.

Ding. Today's check-in has begun. Would the host like to check in?

"Check in."

Fan Yu nodded.

Ding. Check-in complete. McLaren P1 acquired.

"Huh, I just promised Su Xi yesterday, and today's check-in gave me a McLaren P1?"

Fan Yu was somewhat surprised. It seemed the system really was giving face to his fiancée.

He got up and checked the time. It was already nearly ten o'clock, and his heart lurched.

"Didn't Mom and Dad's flight arrive at seven this morning? Doesn't that mean I'm already late?"

He checked his phone and found over a dozen missed calls, all from his parents.

"Damn, this is serious. Mom and Dad came with Uncle and his family. If I don't pick them up, Uncle's family will probably mock them to death."

He hurriedly got dressed and called his parents.

Beep, beep, beep, beep!!!

The line was busy. Fan Yu did not bother with anything else and rushed into the underground garage, started the Maybach, and sped out.

Magic City Air China Airport.

A Toyota Alphard luxury MPV was parked quietly outside. Wearing sunglasses, Su Xi waited at the arrivals exit.

When she saw a middle-aged couple emerge with four others, she immediately strode forward on her long legs.

Xie Wanru and Fan Zhicheng looked around, searching for their son.

But most of the people around them had already left, and there was still no sign of Fan Yu. Fan Zhicheng and his wife could not help growing anxious.

"Tch, I thought my cousin was doing so well in Magic City. Did he fail to rent a car and get too embarrassed to come?"

A rather smug young man said this as he led an arrogant-looking woman beside him.

As Fan Yu drove toward the airport, he called Liu Jian. "Book me a private room at Tianfu International Hotel. Have them prepare the Moutai. I'll be taking my family there for a meal later."

His father liked baijiu, so he did not ask for wine. His father had always said that baijiu was a national treasure, and no matter how good foreign things were, he did not like them.

Ever since Fan Yu was young, his father had been a little overly patriotic. Every sentence came from the perspective of the country, making Fan Yu feel as if his father were some government official.

Unlike Uncle's family, who carried a distinctly common, streetwise air, they seemed like they came from two entirely different families.

It had always given him an odd feeling.

"Pay attention—I want the highest standard. Don't let me down."

"And don't you dare give me fake Moutai. Money doesn't matter; I'll reimburse you afterward."

"Boss, what are you saying? For such a small amount of money, why would you need to reimburse me? I'll go prepare it right away."

After hanging up, Liu Jian hurriedly drove personally to Tianfu International Hotel to make arrangements.

Inside the Alphard driving along the ring road, Xie Wanru liked Su Xi more and more the longer she looked at her. "Xixi, are you really my son's fiancée?"

Su Xi, who was driving, said, "Yes. The matter between your son and me is a long story. I wouldn't even know where to begin. Just know that the two of us are now engaged."

Xie Wanru and Fan Zhicheng exchanged a glance, surprise rising in both their eyes.

Su Xi was stunningly beautiful. They had only ever seen women this beautiful on television, as though she had stepped right out of a painting.

And judging by this car, it had to be a luxury vehicle worth well over a million, right?

Her family background must be extraordinarily good as well. They had no idea how their son had managed to win her over.

Fan Yu's uncle and his family, seated in the back, were also very curious about Su Xi. The spotless interior of the car made them feel even more restrained.
