Chapter 49: Chapter 49 The Arrogant Su Tianhao
"Another... major blunder?"
Upon hearing this, Li Shihao thought of Su Ruoxue coming from the Su Family and being mortal enemies with Su Tianhao. If Ye Fan found out he had helped Su Tianhao, chances are Ye Fan would skin him alive.
In a moment, Li Shihao shivered uncontrollably, and under the shock, his vision darkened, and he fainted.
Li Changhong no longer cared whether Li Shihao was dead or alive. He ordered again, "Prepare the car, to Su Corporation!"
After leaving the Tianba Group, Ye Fan rode his electric scooter with Su Ruoxue, unhurriedly heading back to Su Corporation.
"Ye Fan, don't use any connections for me in the future!"
As she got off the electric scooter, Su Ruoxue looked at Ye Fan with touched expression.
She was well aware of the standing Tianba Group held in Central Plains City. Even the Su Family seemed insignificant in the eyes of Tianba Group. She had never expected that because of her, Ye Fan would pull strings to the extent that Li Changhong, the Chairman of Tianba Group, didn't even dare to breathe too heavily.

Li Shihao was Li Changhong's only son. Normally, if a son was ruined, as a father, one would go to all lengths, even risking life and limb to fight back. However, because of Ye Fan, not only did Li Changhong refrain from seeking revenge, but he even apologized to them.
Su Ruoxue was not naive, Ye Fan had told her that six years ago, he was the personal bodyguard of someone who could cover the skies with one hand back in the country.
In Su Ruoxue's view, it was definitely Ye Fan's connections that had played a role, and that was how she had safely secured the cooperation agreement.
Ye Fan cracked a slight smile. "I got it, Ruoxue. I'll try not to use them in the future!"
"Hmm, it's almost ten o'clock. Let's hurry inside!" Su Ruoxue said softly.
The two walked side by side into Su Corporation, and just as they entered, Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue heard a series of flattering voices inside the company.
"Brother Tianhao truly deserves to be the future heir of our Su Family. The cooperation that Su Ruoxue couldn't secure was handled by Brother Tianhao overnight, incredibly classy!"
"Of course, Brother Tianhao is the top of our Su Family's younger generation. His strength is undeniable. I don't know why the old master, before he fell ill, favored that Su Ruoxue, was really losing his mind!"
"Compared to Brother Tianhao, Su Ruoxue is nothing. Do you know Firefly and Bright Moon? Compared to Brother Tianhao, she is just a firefly. She could never overshadow the brilliant light of Brother Tianhao!"
Once inside the company, they saw many members of the Su Family gathered around Su Tianhao, all wearing fawning expressions.
"Tianhao, well done!"
Old Madam Su was also present, looking at Su Tianhao with a face full of satisfaction.
Seeing Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue arriving, Su Tianhao said with a scornful face, "Oh look! They have arrived. Are you here to pack up and leave because you failed with Tianba Group?"
"So smug. Did you manage to secure Tianba Group?" Ye Fan asked with a cold smile.
Su Tianhao took out a cooperation agreement and slammed it down in front of Ye Fan, boasting triumphantly, "Believe it or not, I really did secure Tianba Group!"
"Oh?" Ye Fan was slightly surprised.
Su Tianhao sneered, "Ye Fan, Su Ruoxue, you didn't see that coming, did you? I got Li Shihao to arrange the cooperation agreement for me personally!"
"You secured the cooperation?" Su Ruoxue was very surprised.
Mockingly, Su Tianhao said, "Of course! Old Lady Su, you've always wanted a ten-billion cooperation with Tianba Group. Take a look, the agreement specifies exactly ten billion!"
"Good, very good!"
Having gained the cooperation with Tianba Group, Old Madam Su couldn't stop smiling with joy.
The next moment, Su Tianhao, gloating, turned his gaze toward Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue, his eyes brimming with disdain.
"Now you should fulfill the bet, shouldn't you? Su Ruoxue, resign your position as head of the marketing department and get out of the Su Family for good!"
"And you, Ye Fan, didn't you act all high and mighty at grandma's birthday party? Shouldn't you apologize to me now and kneel to give me three loud knocks with your head?"
Seeing Su Tianhao's arrogant demeanor, Ye Fan laughed. His smile was brilliant, yet it was tinged with thick irony.
"What? My big brother has secured Tianba Group, you two wouldn't go back on your word and can't play the game, could you? Old Madam witnessed it herself yesterday!"
At this moment, Su Yue approached with a meaningful expression on her face, as if she had personally secured the Tianba Group.
Old Madam Su looked towards Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue with a chilling voice, "Indeed, I witnessed it yesterday. The two of you should be willing to accept the loss of the bet!"
"Oh? Who said that Ruoxue and I didn't secure the Tianba Group? Look, what's this!"
Ye Fan glanced at Su Ruoxue, who nodded and placed the cooperation agreement on the table.
Seeing the cooperation agreement, Su Tianhao's eyebrows rose as he said, "What's this? A cooperation agreement with Tianba Group?"
"Why not take a look and find out!" Su Yue stepped forward and picked up the cooperation agreement.
Upon opening it, Su Yue exclaimed in shock, "This... is this really a cooperation agreement with Tianba Group? And it's personally signed by Chairman Li Changhong, with the Tianba Group's seal stamped on it!"
"The most important thing is, the amount of the cooperation isn't one billion, but thirty billion!"
Thirty billion?
Hearing this, the entire group of Su Family members was flabbergasted.
"What? Thirty billion? Yue Yue, show it to grandma!" Old Madam Su said with a grave face.
Quickly, Su Yue handed the cooperation agreement to Old Madam Su, "Grandma, take a look!"
Indeed, it was thirty billion!
Upon seeing it, Old Madam Su's breathing quickened at that moment.
The Su Family was a second-rate family in Central Plains, on the verge of stepping into the ranks of the first-rate clans. If they could secure a ten billion cooperation project with Tianba Group, the Su Family's entry into the first-rate clans was within reach.
If they could cooperate for thirty billion, the Su Family's ascension to the first-rate clans would be a sure thing.
"Impossible, right?" Su Tianhao's expression changed drastically.
He stepped forward, intensely scrutinizing the cooperation agreement. He had a deep relationship with Li Shihao and had managed to get a ten billion cooperation. How could Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue possibly secure thirty billion?
After Su Tianhao finished reading, he said in horror as if struck by a bolt from the blue, "Impossible! This can't be possible!"
"Impossible? Perhaps you just can't accept it?" Ye Fan sneered coldly.
Su Ruoxue also said, "This cooperation agreement was personally given to us by Chairman Li Changhong!"
"Chairman Li Changhong personally gave it to you? Bullshit!"
In a fit of rage, Su Tianhao tore the cooperation agreement apart, turning to Old Madam Su and saying, "It's fake, grandma. This cooperation agreement is fake, a forgery by Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue!"
"Grandma, you know that I've been close to Li Shihao for the past half a year. He favored our friendship and gave me the ten billion cooperation. How could Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue possibly get thirty billion?"
"And besides, Chairman Li Changhong holds such a lofty position, why would he cooperate with them for thirty billion? It's utterly preposterous!"
"Yes, grandma, I think big brother is making a lot of sense!" Su Yue chimed in.
A group of Su Family members also nodded in agreement, not believing that the cooperation agreement Ye Fan and Su Ruoxue brought back was authentic.
Old Madam Su's face was frosty as she said, "Ye Fan, Su Ruoxue, don't you owe me an explanation?"
"Grandma, don't you believe me and Ye Fan?" Su Ruoxue's pretty face turned pale.
Old Madam Su said icily, "Believe you? The Tianba Group is rich and powerful, and they look down on our Su Corporation. That they were willing to offer a ten billion cooperation to our Su Family was already a great honor for us!"
"But you two, you actually forged a thirty billion cooperation agreement, trying to deceive me. Do you think I'm so senile that I'd be easily blinded by you two?"
—Swoosh—
Just then, an armored Maybach S680 worth tens of millions came to an abrupt stop at the Su Corporation, and Li Changhong hurried out of the car.
