CHAPTER 54: CHAPTER 54: 3 REQUIREMENTS OF THE UNUSUAL BLIND DATE WOMAN

Mortal Group!

Announces its establishment!

This is the beginning of Lin Fan’s trillion-dollar business empire!

Zhang Dafu was incredibly excited. Though he wasn’t entirely clear, he had a keen sense that the boss was gearing up for something monumental!

On this day, the news reports in Yun City followed.

"This morning, Red Sun Hand Sanitizer Company’s owner, Chen Jianfeng, received a lawyer’s letter from Xingquan Law Firm. It is understood that the lawsuit’s reason is Chen Jianfeng’s theft of Blue Moon’s original hand sanitizer formula. The court has accepted the case..."

"The city’s hand sanitizer brand, Blue Moon, has announced its renaming to Mortal Group. Blue Moon becomes the first subsidiary brand under Mortal Group, launching its new hand sanitizer today, taking the market by storm..."

Both these news pieces were Lin Fan’s handiwork.

One was used to further hit Red Sun, the other to promote Blue Moon.

As expected, once the news was out, Red Sun’s reputation plummeted.

"No way, Red Sun Hand Sanitizer’s formula was stolen?"

"It’s Xingquan Law Firm, the letter they sent must be legit!"

"I’m never buying Red Sun again!"

At this time, Lin Fan had already left the exhibition, driving a Kosak, ready to attend the meeting.

He recalled this morning when Ma Rongrong accepted his friend request, but he had been too busy to respond. He picked up his phone and sent Ma Rongrong a message.

"Miss Ma, I’m Lin Fan. Heading to Starbucks now, see you shortly."

Ma Rongrong, at home, received Lin Fan’s message, pouting: "Only now contacting me, clearly not a good guy!"

She didn’t feel like meeting Lin Fan, but thinking about her mother’s nagging, she reluctantly went out.

Lin Fan arrived at Starbucks promptly at 12 o’clock, sending Ma Rongrong a message: "Miss Ma, I’m here. Are you here yet?"

After waiting for ten minutes, Ma Rongrong replied: "I’m rushing over, stop pushing me!"

Lin Fan: "..."

He felt he hadn’t pushed her, just asked if she’d arrived, and it was her who was late, yet she acted like she was in the right...

About half an hour passed.

Ma Rongrong finally arrived tardily.

As soon as Ma Rongrong arrived outside Starbucks, she was attracted by the Kosak parked nearby.

"This car is so cool, the owner must be loaded. If only he were my date..." Ma Rongrong momentarily indulged in fantasies.

But when she saw Lin Fan, dressed in street clothes, reality hit; her date was this poor guy.

Though admittedly young and handsome enough, outwardly no issues, it was unfortunate he was too poor.

"You’re Lin Fan, right? My mom, always introducing me to all sorts of people—not ugly, then poor. How could they possibly match up to such an outstanding girl like me! Let’s cut to the chase. I’ll lay out my three conditions. If you can’t meet them, there’s no need to waste time." Ma Rongrong said impatiently as soon as she sat down.

Lin Fan remained calm: "Alright, go ahead."

Ma Rongrong: "First, appearance check. Must be young and handsome. You... barely pass, I suppose!"

Lin Fan: "???"

Barely pass? I’m incredibly handsome, yet barely pass with you. Damn, it’s like getting charged extra for groceries...

Ma Rongrong: "Second, I’m so pretty, if you get me, it’s a blessing earned through several lifetimes. You must adore me, put me first. If I want the moon, you can’t give me just the stars. If I argue with your mom, you must support me. Think about it, can you do that?"

Lin Fan: "???"

This woman seems to have a serious princess syndrome, not a mild case!

Ma Rongrong: "Third, you must be wealthy. In the future, I won’t work. You’ll support me, give me money to spend. Not talking about meals, I eat simply but don’t cook; you’ll need to hire help for house chores. I must buy new clothes and bags monthly and travel at least three times a year, all on your dime. Judging by you... doesn’t seem like you’re wealthy!"

Lin Fan laughed bitterly; Aunt Li, where did you find this oddball? Treating men like what?

No princess fate, yet with a princess syndrome!

Lin Fan pointed: "Young lady, do you see that?"

Ma Rongrong followed his gesture, frowning: "See what?"

Lin Fan replied: "The door. You can hurry on out."

"You!"

Ma Rongrong was furious. She stood up abruptly, "You broke nobody, how dare you speak to me like that? You can’t even afford a girlfriend, you low-class jerk! Pah!"

Ma Rongrong cursed Lin Fan thoroughly and stormed off.

This blind date ended within ten minutes of meeting, in failure!

Lin Fan was exasperated, thinking that dating was truly unreliable. He’s had many dates, rarely any promising ones.

Luckily, Lin Fan didn’t mind, rather he was glad Ma Rongrong left.

He could focus on waiting for Chen Lingling to arrive.

Chen Lingling started work at one o’clock in the afternoon; just a few more minutes, and he could see her. Comparing Chen Lingling to Ma Rongrong, Lin Fan found Chen Lingling simply wonderful.

After waiting for a while, Lin Fan felt a little urgent, heading to the restroom. Suddenly, his phone rang.

Just as Lin Fan stepped away, a youthful beauty walked in through the door, wearing a dress with a Starbucks apron over it, sporting twin ponytails, like a girl stepped out from a manga.

Chen Lingling came to work.

She arranged to meet Lin Fan at Starbucks but wasn’t sure when Brother Lin would come, so she planned to work while waiting for him.

However, she saw Lin Fan’s luxury car at the entrance, realizing Brother Lin had arrived.

Feeling cheerful, Chen Lingling hastily entered but found no sight of Lin Fan.

Just as Chen Lingling was about to call Lin Fan for his whereabouts, the Starbucks door opened, and a long-haired, red-lipped beauty walked in.

Their eyes met, freezing briefly.

Sun Xiaona!

What a narrow escape indeed, unexpectedly running into Sun Xiaona.

Sun Xiaona didn’t anticipate seeing Chen Lingling here either. She rushed over after hearing Ma Rongrong was meeting Lin Fan at Starbucks to ruin things between Ma Rongrong and Lin Fan.

Ma Rongrong was told not to contact Lin Fan again!

Lin Fan was hers, Sun Xiaona claimed!

"Oh, isn’t it Boss Chen! Lin Fan said he’d buy an anime company for you to be the boss, but why are you still a coffee girl here!" Sun Xiaona taunted.

Chen Lingling blushed. That day, Sun Xiaona jeered about her unemployment; Lin Fan merely stepped in to save face for her.

Lin Fan certainly wouldn’t truly buy an anime company for her, nor did she have the slightest desire.

Now caught by Sun Xiaona, it was a bit awkward.

Seeing Chen Lingling’s flustered expression, Sun Xiaona was sure Lin Fan never bought an anime company for her, feeling ever more triumphant: "Lin Fan is so rich, he could easily buy a company, yet he won’t buy it for you, proving he doesn’t love you. Chen Lingling, I’d advise you not to delude yourself."
