CHAPTER 437: CHAPTER 437: MOTHER-IN-LAW IN HIGH SPIRITS

Yujing District.

In the afternoon, Li Xueyan was carrying a shopping basket on her way home from the supermarket. Her basket was filled with many fresh ingredients she had just bought.

One of those ingredients was ribs.

Last night, Lin Fan mentioned he wanted to eat sugar-steamed ribs made by his mom. Although Li Xueyan had never cooked this dish before, she was eager to learn and prepare it for Lin Fan.

Li Xueyan walked with her head held high, wishing everyone could see her.

It was a stark contrast from before when she wished she could hide away.

At that time, she thought Lin Fan had shamed their family so much that she couldn’t face anyone and even feared stepping out to buy groceries.

But over time, her impression of Lin Fan had completely transformed.

It was because Lin Fan had performed exceptionally well.

First, he heroically saved a neighbor’s grandchild in the district, earning unanimous praise, which boosted Li Xueyan’s pride and slightly changed her impression of him.

Then Lin Fan joined the Wei Family Company and astonishingly sold out the Mingshi Century in a single day, generating a staggering 200 million in sales for the company, with a personal commission of 6 million!

No one could match this achievement. At least in this Yujing District, Lin Fan could walk with his head held high, and people would sing his praises.

But that wasn’t all!

Just this morning, she learned from Wei Dazong that Lin Fan had sold out the A Building of Jinyan Square in less than a morning!

Li Xueyan was ecstatic.

The two mega-deals combined meant that Lin Fan’s commission was likely to have surpassed 10 million.

In just two days, Lin Fan went from being a penniless courier to a multimillionaire!

This was a genuine 10 million!

Just thinking about the number—one followed by seven zeros—made Li Xueyan’s face flush with excitement.

Lin Fan was her son-in-law, and he lived with them; his 10 million was practically hers too!

Last night, she hinted for Lin Fan to help Wei Dazong get a new car.

It seemed that this time, not only could they get a nice new car, but they might even buy a house.

Lin Fan had been recognized as a sales prodigy by the company and family. He was sure to earn even more money in the future.

Li Xueyan had a dream of one day living in a grand villa. Although the district was nice, it couldn’t compare to the comfort and status of a standalone mansion.

Moreover, a grand villa represented wealth, a different league than district living.

Li Xueyan never imagined that one day she would see the hope of a leap in social class through Lin Fan.

She used to pin all her hopes on Wei Qingxue, thinking that once Wei Qingxue could inherit the Wei Family’s assets, living in a grand villa would only be a matter of time.

But that future seemed a bit far off, with the old master still in charge, and who knows how many years that would take.

She used to look down on Lin Fan, but now he represented hope. As long as Lin Fan earned more, their family could live in a grand villa, and this would happen much sooner than relying on Wei Qingxue.

After all, Lin Fan was a sales prodigy.

So, in pursuit of her dream of living in a grand villa, what was learning to make sugar-steamed ribs for Lin Fan?

If Lin Fan wanted something to eat, she was willing to cook it for him, and she would even wash his feet.

Indeed, money makes the world go round, and the ancients weren’t wrong about that.

"Ah, what a coincidence, Sister Yan, buying groceries?" Suddenly, someone greeted her from the opposite side, snapping Li Xueyan out of her thoughts.

Li Xueyan looked and saw it was Sister Fang.

The grandchild Lin Fan saved that night was the granddaughter of this Sister Fang.

Sister Fang and Li Xueyan usually got along well and often exercised together in the morning.

Li Xueyan smiled and said, "Yes, my son-in-law is coming home for dinner tonight, so I’m preparing early."

Sister Fang replied, "That’s wonderful, Little Fan is such a great young man. I can’t praise him enough for what he did last time."

Li Xueyan laughed, "Sister Fang, you’re too kind. To Little Fan, with his skills, it was just a small matter. But I will convey your gratitude to him."

Sister Fang said, "This is quite the bountiful basket. Is there a celebration at home?"

Li Xueyan intentionally raised her voice, grinning, "Sort of, Little Fan isn’t working as a courier anymore. He’s helping out at the company now."

Sister Fang replied with an "Oh," "I think you mentioned it before, something about sales?"

Li Xueyan said, "Yes, this kid has earned our pride. In just the last two days, he closed huge deals. Just yesterday, he sold out a whole building project in one day, earning over 200 million."

Sister Fang was flabbergasted, her eyes wide open, "What, over 200 million?"

Li Xueyan enjoyed flaunting and loved seeing this expression on her face: "It’s true, Little Fan’s commission alone is several hundred."

"Oh my god!" Sister Fang was petrified.

Their conversation attracted the attention of passersby, who were also shocked by what they heard.

The Wei Family’s live-in son-in-law switched from courier to sales and generated 200 million in sales in one day, which was truly amazing.

"Oh my god, is it true, that’s incredible!"

"Turns out he’s a sales prodigy who hadn’t found the right path before."

"Suddenly, my son with a 300,000 annual salary seems like a failure."

"I never expected it, this young man is the pride of our community, not only skillful but also so capable of earning money!"

"Where can I find such a son-in-law? Give me a dozen!"

The crowd began discussing, and everyone envied Li Xueyan greatly.

These words gave Li Xueyan immense satisfaction. Lin Fan was truly amazing, making her incredibly proud, and indeed her pride.

"And that’s not all!"

Li Xueyan continued, releasing another astonishing piece of news, "Little Fan earned 200 million for the company yesterday, and today, he sold out another building. This time it probably won’t be less than 200 million either."

"What?"

"Oh my god!"

"Is it true?"

The crowd was in awe, overwhelmed by admiration. Just now, it was already impressive, but to achieve such feats twice, it was simply astounding.

Sister Fang, holding Li Xueyan’s hand, sighed, "Sister Yan, you’re truly blessed, having such a wonderful son-in-law. You’ll never have to worry again. I’m so envious!"

Li Xueyan was exceedingly pleased, almost on cloud nine, as if she had sold out the buildings herself.

In sheer satisfaction, Li Xueyan bid farewell, "Sister Fang, I won’t keep you any longer. I need to hurry home to prepare dinner for my son-in-law. Let’s arrange a morning walk another day!"

Li Xueyan walked off with her head high and chest out.

The community neighbors all sighed. In the face of such astounding sales figures, they couldn’t even be jealous, just humbly accept it.

For a moment, Lin Fan became the talk of the district.

Back home, Li Xueyan was in high spirits. A good son-in-law gave her the capital to show off, and this sense of fulfillment was unprecedented for her.

"It’s getting late, I should call to check when they’ll be back for dinner," thought Li Xueyan as she dialed Wei Qingxue’s number.

"Qingxue, when are you and Little Fan coming home? I want to start cooking," said Li Xueyan.

Wei Qingxue replied, "Mom, we’re not coming home for dinner tonight."

Li Xueyan was taken aback, "What did you say? Why not, I’ve already bought the groceries."

Wei Qingxue said, "Well, this afternoon, I just divorced Lin Fan."

"What?"

Li Xueyan was thunderstruck, vision going dark, almost fainting on the ground.
