Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 945 - 944

"Auntie, didn’t you hear me clearly? Getting older and your ears aren’t working well?" Lin Fan smiled.

The middle-aged woman was furious at being called "Auntie" by Lin Fan. Although she indeed was of that age, she still didn’t like being addressed that way. It was clear Lin Fan was doing it to irritate her.

The Auntie was exasperated and jumped up: "You lousy pauper, how dare you talk to me like that? Are you tired of living? Watch me beat you to death today!"

The Auntie pulled out a pair of slippers from her pocket and lunged at Lin Fan. It seemed she bought the slippers before coming to buy clothes, just in time to use them for a beating.

Such an attack, in Lin Fan’s eyes, was child’s play. Lin Fan merely sidestepped a bit, and the Auntie lost her balance, diving headfirst into a clothing rack, knocking over an entire row of clothes in the store in a messy, comical scene.

Lin Fan chuckled: "There’s surveillance in here, right? You can testify that the Auntie fell down trying to hit me. I didn’t touch her."

The female shop assistant rolled her eyes at Lin Fan and said, "How can you be so uncivilized, picking on an aunt? Seriously!"

As she spoke, the shop assistant was about to help the Auntie up and tidy the fallen clothes.

Lin Fan said, "Miss, help me with the bill first."

The shop assistant rolled her eyes again, not intending to process Lin Fan’s payment. Not to mention she had to clean up, she didn’t believe Lin Fan could afford the payment, thinking he was just pretending to be rich.

On a usual day, Lin Fan might have had fun playing along with them. After all, there is some joy in dealing with snobbish people who look down on others, like walking a dog for entertainment.

But not today; Lin Fan urgently needed to get to Hang City.

Lin Fan extended his hand, grabbed the shop assistant’s hand, and his face darkened: "I said, handle my payment first."

The shop assistant, caught by Lin Fan, felt as though a beggar had sullied her, immediately screamed: "What are you doing? You hooligan, let go!"

The shop assistant shrieked. She deeply despised Lin Fan and saw herself as superior, feeling disgusted at being touched by someone she deemed inferior.

"Noisy!"

Lin Fan coldly said, adding a bit more force. The shop assistant cried out in pain, feeling her hand might break. At this point, fear overwhelmed her disgust, realizing this impoverished-looking man’s strength was formidable. Continuing to struggle could have severe consequences.

Under the absolute power suppression, all emotions vanished, leaving fear as the only real feeling.

"What do you want?" the shop assistant trembled as she spoke.

Lin Fan said, "I said, process my payment. I’m waiting to leave; don’t waste my time."

With that, Lin Fan let go of her hand.

The shop assistant obediently returned to the counter, calculated the price, and said: "One pair of trousers plus a shirt, totaling 3000 yuan."

Saying this, the shop assistant cautiously glanced at Lin Fan. She didn’t dare confront Lin Fan openly but internally cursed him, expecting him to think it was too expensive and haggle over the price.

Surprisingly, Lin Fan said nothing, just nodded, pulled out his phone, and scanned for payment.

Beep!

"Payment successful, 3000 yuan received!"

What?

The shop assistant was dumbfounded. Lin Fan was so straightforward. She thought this pauper would haggle, maybe even try to force a sale, but he paid 3000 yuan without batting an eye. Although 3000 yuan isn’t a vast amount, for Lin Fan, whom she deemed a pauper, being so quick to pay 3000 yuan signaled something.

With the transaction completed, Lin Fan couldn’t be bothered with them anymore. He tore off the tags from his new clothes, tossed them into the trash, and pushed the door open to leave.

"I won’t let you off, you damn pauper!"

The Auntie had recovered by now, climbed out of the pile of clothes, and grabbed her slippers again.

She intended to chase Lin Fan out once more.

The shop assistant followed her out, only to see the Auntie standing there with a raised slipper, frozen as if hit by a body-freezing spell, her eyes blank, her face twitching!

The shop assistant followed the Auntie’s gaze and was also stunned.

She saw Lin Fan walk straight to a Rolls-Royce across the street, open the door, get in, and drive away.

The shop assistant and the Auntie watched blankly as their faces began to twitch as if they had been slapped multiple times.

What?

What did they just call Lin Fan?

A damn pauper?

Have you ever seen a pauper driving a Rolls-Royce?

"My God, so that car was his. I was wondering who parked a Rolls-Royce here," the shop assistant muttered in shock.

Lin Fan had seized her hand just now, and she had planned to report him to the police afterward. Now, she immediately abandoned the idea. If Lin Fan were indeed a pauper, she would certainly report him, but facing someone who drives a Rolls-Royce, could she afford such a confrontation? Weighing her options, she realized she couldn’t.

This is the difference between having money and not. Without money, anyone might disdain you, step on you, but with money, you command respect and possess an intangible shield that others dare not easily provoke.

Having money is indeed wonderful!

Thud!

The Auntie suddenly knelt down, the slipper in her hand dropped to the ground. She clasped her hands together, trembling, muttering: "Great lord, please forgive me. It’s all my fault. Great lord, please have mercy, don’t hold a grudge against someone like me."

Her current demeanor was entirely different from her earlier arrogant self. When bullying a pauper, she acted like a rabid chicken, jumping aggressively, with a fierce face. However, when kneeling before a wealthy person, she shrank like a frightened mouse.

This stark contrast cannot merely be called ironic; it is exceedingly humbling.

Lin Fan had seen many such people and didn’t pay them any mind; he drove away from the neighborhood, heading for Hang City.

If Du Tao couldn’t resolve the issue, he would personally bring Ning Xiaoyue back.

He had a premonition that Du Tao might genuinely not resolve the problem this time, as the opponent was Liu Jinwei.

This Liu Jinwei was a big shot who had connections in both legal and illegal circles and roamed around Jiangnan unchecked. He came for Lin Fan this time, surely giving no face to Du Tao.

Lin Fan wondered why Liu Jinwei suddenly targeted him. Could it be related to his daughter Liu Yina?

Lin Fan indeed offended Liu Yina, and as Liu Jinwei’s beloved daughter, it made sense for Liu Jinwei to go after Lin Fan to vent her anger.

Yet Lin Fan felt things weren’t that simple. If it was merely to vent his daughter’s frustration, Liu Jinwei could directly negotiate with Lin Fan instead of targeting Ning Xiaoyue.

This time going to Hang City, besides bringing Ning Xiaoyue back, Lin Fan needed to clarify the situation.

In Hang City, the most talked-about event these days was none other than Liu Jinwei’s birthday. Liu Jinwei was about to celebrate his 60th birthday, and it promised to be a grand event, reportedly attracting numerous business moguls and a good number of celebrities.

Ning Xiaoyue was among them.
