Chapter 153 If you dare to take it, it is yours

Seeing the newcomers, Zhou Tao and Qian Zhifeng experienced subtle changes in their expressions.
They both knew the person who had just arrived, and they were well aware of his background.
The newcomer was a high school senior named Jiang Hu.
Jiang Hu was the only son of the current head of the Jiang family.
The Jiang family was one of the three major wealthy clans in the capital, enjoying high prestige and immense power and influence. They possessed deep connections in both political and business circles.
As the sole heir to the current head of the Jiang family, Jiang Hu naturally received boundless affection and grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth.
Compared to the Jiang family, the family backgrounds of Zhou Tao and Qian Zhifeng were entirely negligible.
"So it's Young Master Jiang," Zhou Tao said with a full face of smiles. "Since Young Master Jiang has spoken, I naturally have nothing more to say. I must still show you this respect."
The Sihai Alliance was merely a social group in the capital—to put it bluntly, a gathering of low-level punks.
Compared with the Jiang family, the Sihai Alliance lacked the courage to confront the Jiang family head-on.
Even though his father was the leader of the Sihai Alliance, he would not dare to offend the Jiang family over such a minor matter.
Hearing Zhou Tao's response, Jiang Hu looked very satisfied, a smile playing across his handsome face.
"Young Master Qian, you wouldn't fail to give me this face, would you?" Jiang Hu looked at Qian Zhifeng with a half-smile.
In his eyes, a figure like Qian Zhifeng was nothing more than a clown.
Whenever he wished, he could crush him with a single hand.
"Hehe, how could I possibly dare not give Young Master Jiang face?" Qian Zhifeng said with a chuckle. "I just came over to watch the excitement."
Although he was furious inside, he dared not show it, knowing full well that he was no match for Jiang Hu.
Seeing Zhou Tao and Qian Zhifeng acting like dogs with their tails tucked between their legs in front of Jiang Hu, the surrounding students secretly looked down upon them with contempt.
Weren't the two of them acting extremely arrogant earlier? Why had they turned coward so suddenly?
Many students were also aware of Jiang Hu's background.
At Mingzhu High School, although Jiang Hu rarely got into conflicts with others, whenever a conflict did occur, those who offended him met with a miserable end.
In everyone's mind, Jiang Hu was a ruthless character.
"Susu, I have two movie tickets here. How about accompanying me to a movie tonight?" Jiang Hu walked up to Lin Susu, holding out two movie tickets.
Jiang Hu had long harbored designs on the number one campus belle of Mingzhu High School and was determined to win her over.
Seeing Zhou Tao and Qian Zhifeng come into conflict over Lin Susu today, Jiang Hu stepped forward to make his stance clear: the top campus belle of Mingzhu High School was a woman he, Jiang Hu, had set his sights on, and no one else should harbor any thoughts about her.
"I don't have time," Lin Susu refused flatly.
"Campus Belle Lin, you won't even give me this face?" Jiang Hu looked at Lin Susu, his tone turning somewhat displeased.
Lin Susu did not answer and instead tried to walk around Jiang Hu.
How could Jiang Hu let her leave so easily? He immediately reached out to grab her.
"Let go!" Lin Susu abruptly jerked her hand away from Jiang Hu's grip and said angrily, "Please show some respect."
"Damn it, what are you acting so high and mighty for? Spread your legs, and you're just doing it for men anyway." Seeing Lin Susu's expression of utter disgust, Jiang Hu instantly grew irritated. "Lin Susu, let me make it clear to you: you are coming to the movies with me tonight, whether you like it or not."
Gazing coldly at Jiang Hu, Lin Susu remained silent, but her attitude made everything crystal clear—she would never go to any movie with him.
"Lin Susu, your mother works as a maid in my Jiang family. If some valuable item were to go missing in my house, what do you suppose the consequences would be?" Jiang Hu stared at Lin Susu, a playful mockery in his eyes.
To conquer a woman like Lin Susu, he had resorted to advance tactics by hiring her mother to work as a domestic helper at his home.
If this woman failed to appreciate what was good for her, he would use other means to bring her to submission.
"You shameless villain!" Lin Susu glared at Jiang Hu with fury in her eyes.
She had never expected that her mother would be working as a maid in Jiang Hu's household.
When she first heard that her mother had found a high-paying housekeeping job with a wealthy and influential family, Lin Susu had been genuinely happy for her.
But now, terror gripped her heart.
She was terrified that her mother might be framed by Jiang Hu and end up in prison, which would spell absolute disaster.
"Hehe, why am I shameless?" Jiang Hu sneered without any real humor. "I treat your mother quite well; the wages I pay her are twice the going rate for a maid. Doesn't that make me a good person?"
"Oh, right, I heard from your mother that your father has lung cancer and needs a huge sum of money for treatment. Given your family's financial situation, you wouldn't even be able to afford the medical bills if you sold your house."
"How about this? I'll keep you as my mistress, and I'll cover all the expenses for your father's medical treatment. How does that sound?"
Locking his gaze on Lin Susu, Jiang Hu wore a mocking smile in his eyes.
Given the current situation, he refused to believe Lin Susu would not submit.
To save her critically ill father with money, and to protect her mother from being framed, any ordinary person would surely yield.
Yet Lin Susu did not. Instead, she glared at Jiang Hu with deep scorn and retorted, "Is having money supposed to make you amazing? Even if I have to beg on the streets, I wouldn't take a single cent from you, Jiang Hu. In my eyes, if you stripped away the Jiang family, you would be absolute nothing."
Hearing this scathing verbal assault, Jiang Hu's expression darkened, genuinely enraged.
This woman simply didn't know what was good for her!
"Damn it, I'm going to sleep with you tonight!" Driven to fury by humiliation, Jiang Hu stepped forward, grabbed Lin Susu by the wrist, and attempted to drag her away by force.
*Crack!*
With a sharp, crisp sound, a heavy slap landed squarely across Jiang Hu's face.
The blow had been delivered by Lin Susu.
Having been slapped by someone, Jiang Hu instantly flew into a rage: "Stinking bitch, you're courting death!"
After being struck by a woman, if he didn't teach her a severe lesson, how could he possibly show his face here ever again?
He abruptly raised his foot and lashed out with a kick toward Lin Susu.
At that exact moment, a figure flashed by like lightning and interposed himself directly in front of Lin Susu.
Before Jiang Hu even realized what was happening, his abdomen took a heavy blow, sending his entire body flying backward more than five meters, where he rolled several times across the ground.
Clutching his stomach with a look of agony, he felt as though his internal organs had been displaced, bringing immense suffering.
This sudden turn of events left everyone present completely dumbfounded.
That kick was vicious beyond belief!
"Take him down and kill him!" Jiang Hu pointed a finger at Yang Fan and yelled at his underlings.
Following Jiang Hu's command, twenty-odd people swarmed toward Yang Fan.
Among these students were a few athletic majors possessing robust builds.
Yang Fan paid those punks no mind whatsoever, standing calmly right where he was.
As the twenty individuals charged forward, not a single one managed to get close to him.
Yang Fan's kicks moved with lightning speed; with every single extension of his leg, another attacker was sent flying through the air.
Witnessing this completely one-sided spectacle, everyone was stunned. It was simply too fierce.
In less than a minute, over a dozen people were already laid out flat, unable to get back up as they wailed in pain on the ground.
The remaining individuals looked upon Yang Fan with profound terror, not daring to step forward.
Caring not to spare those fellows another glance, Yang Fan turned to Lin Susu and said, "I'll keep you as my mistress, and I guarantee no one will ever dare lay a hand on you again."
Upon hearing Yang Fan's declaration that he wanted to keep her, Lin Susu froze in momentary surprise.
Meanwhile, the surrounding spectators cast bizarre, questioning glances at Yang Fan, utterly bewildered as to what was going on inside this guy's head.
Did he really think that just because he stepped in and solved her problem, she would simply agree to such a thing?
Locking her gaze onto Yang Fan, Lin Susu put on an expression of naive innocence and smiled. "I'm very expensive, you know. Look at them—even they couldn't afford to keep me."
"Is that so?" Yang Fan raised an eyebrow.
He reached into his pants pocket and pulled out two items, presenting them to Lin Susu.
A keychain and a small bottle of medicine.
Lin Susu stared in a daze at the set of keys and the unknown object resting in her palm.
"A villa at White Tiger Mountain and a bottle of medicine capable of curing lung cancer. If you dare to accept them, they are yours."
His demeanor was tranquil and his tone indifferent, as though he were merely discussing something of negligible importance.
Upon learning that the keys in her hand belonged to a villa on White Tiger Mountain, Lin Susu felt a jolt of alarm.
And the other item—a milky-white medicinal pill rumored to cure lung cancer—shocked her even more profoundly.
Lung cancer? Could such an illness actually be cured? Doubt swirled within Lin Susu's heart.
However, that cluster of keys was hardly likely to be fake.
"Are you certain this medicine can cure my father's illness?" Lin Susu asked, fixing her eyes on Yang Fan's.
"As long as your father is suffering from lung cancer, I am certain it can be cured. If it fails to cure him, the White Tiger Mountain villa is yours for free, and my previous offer to keep you as my mistress will be considered unsaid," Yang Fan stated calmly, his tone radiating absolute confidence.
"It's a deal. I'll take both the keys and the medicine." Flashing a sweet smile, Lin Susu took the items and walked away.
Once Lin Susu had departed, the surrounding student onlookers erupted into a frenzy.
"Holy crap, a villa on White Tiger Mountain starts at thirty million at the very least!"
"Damn it, if I were a woman, I'd gladly let him keep me."
"Screw that, who knows if it's even real? Those keys are probably counterfeit."
"I think everything he said was fake. Just think about it—what kind of medicine in this world can cure lung cancer?"
"Hearing you put it that way, I'd say his bragging has gone way out of hand."
While people found it somewhat plausible that Yang Fan could pull out keys to a villa worth over thirty million and casually toss them to Lin Susu with an offer to keep her, his claim that the medicine he provided could cure cancer was dismissed as utter nonsense.
Cancer was an incurable terminal illness; could it really be beaten?
Furthermore, Yang Fan had actually dared to beat up Jiang Hu.
Jiang Hu was the young master of the capital's Jiang family! Practically no one in the capital dared to cross him, yet Yang Fan had thrashed him without hesitation.
Everyone concluded that Yang Fan must possess an extraordinary background; otherwise, how could he possibly have dared to make a move against Jiang Hu?
"Let's go. Is there really anything left to see?" Yang Fan said, walking over to Tang Xin and Liu Jingjing.
The trio headed back toward their residential apartment.
Upon returning to the apartment, Liu Jingjing dragged Yang Fan onto the sofa, put on an aggrieved and angry expression, and scolded, "Yang Fan, you've gone too far! Telling another woman you want to keep her right in front of your own girlfriend?"
Undeniably, Lin Susu possessed striking good looks; apart from her breasts being less full than Liu Jingjing's, the rest of her figure lacked nothing.
"I was simply helping her out, nothing more," Yang Fan said with total composure.
"You just gave away an entire villa just like that, and you claim you were purely helping out?" Liu Jingjing flatly refused to believe this fellow possessed such a good heart.
Liu Jingjing naturally knew the value of a villa on White Tiger Mountain.
Purchasing a property on White Tiger Mountain required substantial connections and influence just to secure the opportunity.
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do," Yang Fan said, spreading his hands with a helpless expression.
"Fine, I'll believe you this once," Liu Jingjing pouted. "No getting involved with her again from now on."
"Alright," Yang Fan nodded.
Only upon receiving this answer did Liu Jingjing look satisfied.
Retreating to his bedroom, Yang Fan lay down on the bed and fell into deep contemplation.
The conviction grew ever stronger in his mind that Lin Susu possessed a unique constitution—and such a constitution was undeniably rare.
Seeing those two monthly recommendation tickets was truly a surprise for an author struggling at the bottom!
