Chapter 138 Back to where I belong Part 1
The trio finally arrived at the villa, with little white das.h.i.+ng out of Su Lin"s hands almost immediately. It disappeared into the gardens, with a clear intention of vying for attention.
Unfortunately for it, its master was a foundation established cultivator, whose speed and the body were both top-notch.
Su Lin chuckled and was about to grab the little thing when she noticed a stranger in the villa.
Though he was standing there briskly walking back and forth and fidgeting with the folders in his hand, the guy didn"t seem that suspicious.
In fact, he was in a lawyer"s clothes and looked like he was waiting for them.
As soon as he saw Su Lin and Luther entering the premises, he immediately rushed towards Su Lin.
He even humbly gave her a slight bow! Su Lin was confused.
"Miss Su Lin, Master s.h.i.+ Meng sent me here with his family"s entire property and entire wealth. Please feel free to pick and choose whatever you want from these."
He then hesitated and swallowed his saliva. "If needed you also have the option to take everything."
The lawyer"s frantic eyes searched for a reply in Su Lin"s cold indifferent eyes.
She was not in the least touched by this act.
Rather, it only showed how pitiful he was. Stepping on the weak, but fleeing from the powerful. What a disgusting c.o.c.kroach!!
Since he had seen her strength and power first hand, the guy apparently wasted no time in waving a white peace flag.
"Whatever I want huh? Wonder if I should just take everything." Su Lin smirked.
She glanced at the various papers handed over to her and patiently browsed them one by one.
She then stopped at a particular property and took out that deed separately.
This was it. This was all that she needed.
She quickly retrieved a pen and paper from her Valentino handbag and scribbled a few words on it. She then sent the profusely sweating lawyer back to s.h.i.+ Meng.
.................
"No matter how powerful she is or how much dealings she has with the underground, you don"t have to bend over this much Meng." Su Han angrily scoffed and reprimanded his friend.
s.h.i.+ Meng had run off to the Su family villa. He was too frightened to be alone. Since yesterday, he even had slight tremors running across his body intermittently.
Just the thought of the past and his brash dealings with her gave him the s.h.i.+vers. He really had been too ignorant.
Even when she quietly left and minded her own business, he still had made life difficult for her and on top of that intervened in her company affairs as well.
There really was too much tension and bad history.
With everything happening around him, and her mysterious background, s.h.i.+ Meng couldn"t help but feel vulnerable.
And he had no idea how he was going to get rid of this nagging feeling.
Su Han tried his best to console his friend and get him out of this stupid decision but to no avail.
Who on their right mind hands over the entire property to the ex-wife??? Su Han was completely bewildered.
"At least wait till grandpa returns from B city." He patted his friend"s hunched back and tried to reason.
While the two were still talking, the door bell rang and the house keeper informed him about the lawyer"s arrival.
"Over. It"s all over. Even the lawyer is back now." Su Han cried out in exasperation.
"We can"t even change anything anymore. That s.l.u.t probably took everything you own and then some more."
"What the heck have you gone and done Meng??? You totally lost it."
He then suddenly patted his friend"s back with an excited gleam in his eyes. "I got it. Don"t worry. We can get this whole incident thrown away in court."
s.h.i.+ Meng looked at his friend"s sudden excitement in confusion. "Hmm?"
"We can say that you met with a life-threatening dangerous experience in Iceland and was deeply depressed and in a bad mental state when making this decision. I am sure the judge will completely rule this on our side."
Su Han tried explaining his great idea to s.h.i.+ Meng.
"Bro! You don"t understand! I indeed met with a dangerous life-threatening experience in Iceland, and that female demon was the main perpetrator of that incident!!"
"Why do you think I am trying my best here to appease her??" s.h.i.+ Meng cried inside.
He was not in the least worried about the loss of these properties. He can always earn more. He just needed to be alive!!
Su Han didn"t even know what to say anymore. The entire situation looked completely ridiculous to him.
How can that frail good for nothing woman hold so much power and strength? It was simply impossible.
The lawyer hurriedly walked into the living room and wiped his sweat off his forehead. He really wanted to be sure before reporting this news to the young master.
"What happened?" s.h.i.+ Meng anxiously asked.
And without giving the lawyer a chance to answer, he anxiously blabbered on, "You could have called me first!! I have waited too long!! Did she seem angry? What did she say?"
The lawyer removed a piece of paper from the folder and carefully handed it to s.h.i.+ Meng. "Sir, Miss Su Lin gave you this message."
While s.h.i.+ Meng slowly opened that piece of paper, Su Han grabbed the lawyer and shook him.
"Why did you follow stupid orders such as these?? Even if Meng was temporarily out of it, shouldn"t you have at least spoken some sense into him??"
"Is this why we are employing you at such a high salary??" Su Han started berating the lawyer.
"But sir"
"Shut up. You did everything wrong and what is the point of explanations now??" Su Han angrily scoffed.
The lawyer waited patiently and then smiled. Maybe his panicked expression was sending them the wrong message.
"Sir, Miss Lin just took a single property deed." He finally got his answer out.
"What??" Su Han was completely shocked.
Why would a gold digger like her just take a single property, when the entire family"s wealth is handed over to her on a golden platter. This was ridiculous!
"What did she take?" Su Han grabbed the folder from the lawyer"s arms and hastily went through the doc.u.ments as if he needed to confirm the truth with his own eyes.
"Miss Lin just took the s.h.i.+ villa property deed." The lawyer handed Su Han the relevant doc.u.ment.
Su Han was instantly overjoyed. This was great news! This was amazing news!
"Look at this Meng. You are so lucky. Your stupid act has gone completely unpunished! She just took the villa deed." Su Han slapped his thighs and chuckled in relief.
"What a stupid woman! Even if you gave them the entire world, a stupid woman will always be just that. Stupid."
While Su Han was celebrating, s.h.i.+ Meng finally looked up from that piece of paper. Was this really okay? Was she really satisfied with just this?
Looking at his friend staring at that paper in a stupor, Su Han grabbed it from his hand. "What do we have here? Now that this drama is over, is she playing new tricks again? Stupid vain woman."
But, to his surprise, the blank white paper just had a single statement on it.
"With this we are strangers."
Su Han re-read it a couple of times and was dumbstruck, completely out of words.
Silence enveloped the entire atmosphere when Su Han finally mumbled after clearing his throat.
"Fine. Let bygones be bygones. Something good at least came out of this outright stupidity."
"Hopefully, now that woman won"t interfere in our business anymore."
He looked at his friend, who still seemed to be in a trance-like state and patted him. "Let it be. Maybe this will bring closure to both you and her."
Su Han very well knew how obsessed s.h.i.+ Meng had been over Su Lin, always ranting about some crazy conspiracy theories.
Now that everything was out in the open, they at least knew that she was not after their money.
Well, there was always a possibility that she was a complete psycho and might still hound them in the future for more money.
But for now, she really did deserve the benefit of the doubt. After all, she did choose the lowest valued property out of the entire bunch.
Suddenly thinking of something, s.h.i.+ Meng looked up and asked hurriedly, "What did you say she took?"
"She took the s.h.i.+ villa property deed, sir." The lawyer immediately replied.
Oh no!! He barely had any time to digest the fact that he was out of danger, and the next crisis had already come knocking at his doorstep!
s.h.i.+ Meng abruptly stood up and fished out his phone from his pocket.
"Mom, h.e.l.lo. Where are you right now?"
