Chapter 1518 - 1517: Postures

Originally, Lin Fan intended to refuse!

In this matter, Lin Fan holds the upper hand, and he has a hundred reasons to reject it!

However, considering Liu Wujian is Liu Yu's father, Lin Fan couldn't bring himself to refuse Liu Wujian, lest Liu Yu becomes upset!

Then, Lin Fan said, "Ten chests of gold, no less than that, this is my bottom line!"

"Alright! Ten chests it is!" Cheng Qingshan hastily replied!

Although ten chests of gold are not a small amount to the Cheng Family, it's a lot less compared to twenty chests!

Now, Cheng Qingshan looked at Liu Wujian with gratitude!

Instead, Liu Wujian was full of curiosity, surprised that Lin Fan agreed to his request without any objections!

Then Cheng Qingshan spoke to Lin Fan, "Mr. Lin, I've agreed to your request, can you release my son now?"

"I ask you, Patriarch Cheng, are you the fool or am I the fool? Haven't you heard of the concept 'money in one hand, person in the other'? What if I release him and you don't hold up your end?" Lin Fan said!

"Mr. Lin, what if I give you the gold and you don't hold up your end?" Cheng Qingshan retorted!

"Haha! Patriarch Cheng, I only ask for ten chests of gold out of consideration for Patriarch Liu; it has nothing to do with you. So, Patriarch Cheng, don't take advantage of my courtesy!" Lin Fan coldly chuckled!

"You..."

Cheng Qingshan turned red with anger, unable to speak!

Lin Fan continued, "Patriarch Cheng, ten chests of gold, no less, whether you're giving them or not, choose wisely. As soon as I see the gold, I'll release the person. Alright, it's getting late; I need to rest now. Ma Hongyi, see our guests out!"

As soon as the words were out, Lin Fan stood up and turned to walk out of the hall!

Ma Hongyi wore a sheepish smile and spoke to Cheng Qingshan and the others, "Gentlemen, please!"

"Hmph!"

Fang Yixing swung his arm in anger, feeling aggrieved—he came to help but ended up getting hurt. His heart was filled with resentment and a hint of fear towards firearms!

Then, Cheng Qingshan and the three others left the Hall of Loyalty and Justice with Ma Hongyi seeing them off!

…

When Lin Fan returned to the bedroom on the second floor, Liu Yu was resting by the bed!

Seeing Lin Fan return, Liu Yu quickly stood up and asked worriedly, "How did it go?"

"Don't worry! It's already settled, I gave your dad face!"

Lin Fan chuckled and briefly explained the situation to Liu Yu!

Liu Yu said, "You agreed just because my dad casually mentioned it, aren't you afraid they might get suspicious?"

"Afraid of what? You are my wife, your dad is my father-in-law. How could I, as the son-in-law, not give my father-in-law face?" Lin Fan laughed!

Hearing this, Liu Yu playfully punched Lin Fan on the chest, but her charming little face was filled with a happy smile!

Not having a conflict with her father is exactly what Liu Yu wanted the most!

Looking at Liu Yu's charming little face, Lin Fan said with a smile, "Honey, see how good I am? Whatever your dad says, I agree to it. How do you plan to reward me?"

"Reward you with a big silly head!"

Liu Yu rolled her eyes at Lin Fan and turned to leave!

But Lin Fan couldn't let Liu Yu go. He reached out and grabbed her delicate arm, pulling her gently into his embrace!

Lin Fan held Liu Yu's sharp chin with a mischievous expression and said, "Dear, without husband's permission, you can't sneak away!"

"What... what are you trying to do?"

Liu Yu said with a face full of bashfulness!

"Hehe! What do you think?"

Lin Fan chuckled as he brought his lips close to Liu Yu!

However, just as Lin Fan was about to kiss her, Liu Yu suddenly put her hand up, blocking Lin Fan's lips!

"Wait... the window isn't shut yet!" Liu Yu said shyly!

Turning his head, Lin Fan noticed the window he had opened earlier to observe Cheng Qingshan and the others was still open!

Then, Lin Fan quickly ran to the window and closed it, before running back over to Liu Yu!

But as Lin Fan's lips were about to touch Liu Yu's lovely red lips again, she blocked them with her hand once more!

Liu Yu said, "The curtain hasn't been drawn yet, what if someone sees?"

"Just a moment, it'll be done!"

Having no other choice, Lin Fan quickly ran to the window and pulled the curtain closed!

Then, Lin Fan hurried back to Liu Yu's side.

But, just as Liu Yu was about to stop him, Lin Fan had anticipated it, and he swiftly grabbed her wrist, halting her movements!

Lin Fan whispered, "The window is shut, the curtain is drawn, and I've locked the door. Don't worry, there won't be a third person showing up. Darling, you won't escape me tonight!"

Soon...

Creak creak...

It was the sound of the wooden bed shaking!
