Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God

When Lin Fan returned home, he found that only Wei Qingxue was there.

Wei Qingxue had recently been dismissed and was struggling with the financial issues, so she could only stay home alone.

"You're back! Sorry, I haven't cooked. If you're hungry, just cook something for yourself," Wei Qingxue said, somewhat listlessly.

Lin Fan said, "It's okay. Are you hungry? I can help you cook."

Wei Qingxue said, "Whatever."

Lin Fan then went to the kitchen to get busy.

Not long after, Li Xueyan returned.

As soon as Li Xueyan entered, she asked Wei Qingxue, "Daughter, have you found a solution for the company's financial issues?"

Feeling a wave of annoyance, Wei Qingxue shook her head.

"That's great!" Li Xueyan seemed somewhat pleased.

Wei Qingxue frowned, "Mom, what do you mean by this?"

Realizing her slip, Li Xueyan toned down her smile, "What I mean is, I have a way to help you."

Wei Qingxue was a bit surprised, "You can help me get investment?"

Li Xueyan said, "Yes, I had a chat with President Zhao of the Wanjin Group today, and he said they can invest in us."

Wei Qingxue exclaimed joyfully, "Really? Wanjin is a financial company with strong resources. Are they really willing to invest in us?"

Li Xueyan said, "I've been friends with President Zhao for a long time, so this investment negotiation went fairly well. Just that…"

Li Xueyan deliberately paused.

Wei Qingxue asked, "Just that what?"

Li Xueyan said, "It's like this, President Zhao has a son named Zhao Feng. What he means is for our families to become in-laws…"

"What?" Wei Qingxue jumped up, "This is absurd! Haven't I made my stance clear about Ma Jialiang? Mom, you should know this is impossible!"

Lin Fan chimed in, "Exactly, why are you looking for another match for my wife!"

"You good-for-nothing, shut up!" Li Xueyan scolded, "This is a conversation between mother and daughter, it's not your place to interrupt. Don't forget you're just a son-in-law who married into the family, stay out of this!"

Lin Fan said, "Of course it's my business if you want my wife to remarry."

Li Xueyan, infuriated, pointed at Lin Fan and yelled, "How dare you talk back! You've lost all respect! Qingxue's biggest mistake was marrying a loser like you. If she had married a rich man from the start, would we be in this predicament? I say we take this chance to divorce you!"

Wei Qingxue said, "Mom, stop it. Lin Fan, you go cook first, I'll talk with Mom."

"Okay." Lin Fan responded and went into the kitchen.

Wei Qingxue pulled Li Xueyan to sit down, "Mom, I know you're looking out for me, but this is too outrageous. I won't agree to it. Please help me decline."

Li Xueyan said, "Silly daughter, what's there in Lin Fan for you to hold onto? You wouldn't marry Ma Jialiang, and I'm not forcing you anymore since it ended badly for both sides, but with Zhao Feng, you have to listen to me. This might be your last chance."

Wei Qingxue said, "If I remarry for money, what will outsiders think of me? I'll be a joke for the rest of my life."

Li Xueyan said, "What's there to laugh about? A wise bird chooses its tree. You must listen to me on this. You are our family's greatest hope and can't lose your position. Think about it, not just for yourself but for the family's sake!"

Wei Qingxue listened, a bit annoyed, "Mom, stop talking. I won't agree anyway."

Li Xueyan immediately became agitated, "Why are you being so stubborn? Do you want to drive me to death? Is that what it takes for you to agree?"

Wei Qingxue was speechless, "You're overreacting."

"I see you want me to die in front of you. Well then, I'll die and show you!"

Li Xueyan cried out, pulling a razor from her bag and putting it to her wrist, as if to slit it.

Wei Qingxue was startled, "Don't be impulsive! Put the knife down first!"

Li Xueyan said, "If you don't agree, I'll die and show you!"

Wei Qingxue said helplessly, "Mom, what do you want from me?"

Li Xueyan said, "At least promise me you'll meet Young Master Zhao tomorrow. Daughter, you have only a week. A day is already gone. Stop being willful, or I might as well be dead."

Wei Qingxue bit her lip, unwilling to risk her mother's life. If her mom really acted this way, she'd be guilty for the rest of her life.

"Alright, I'll go meet him, but I can't promise I'll like him," Wei Qingxue said.

Li Xueyan immediately smiled, "Now that's more like it. There's a party tomorrow. I've already arranged for you to meet him there."

Saying this, Li Xueyan carefully put the razor away, fearing it might accidentally cut.

By her demeanor, suicide seemed unlikely - it was clearly just a method to threaten Wei Qingxue.

Lin Fan watched, chuckled softly, and said nothing.

That night, back in their room.

Wei Qingxue said shyly, "Lin Fan, I've already promised Mom I'll meet that Young Master Zhao tomorrow. I know it goes against our marriage agreement, but I can't watch Mom threaten suicide. I hope you understand. I assure you, I will quickly send him away tomorrow."

Lin Fan smiled, "I understand, but I have a request; tomorrow, I'll go too."

In the still of the night.

Lin Fan called Feng Ruolan, "Sister, do you know about the Wanjin Group? I heard it's a financial company."

Feng Ruolan said, "I know it, it's one of the companies I've invested in. Currently, I'm the largest shareholder. When Wanjin faced a financial crisis and could no longer continue, Zhao Jiasheng came to me, and I helped save his company. Little Fan, why are you suddenly interested in this company?"

Lin Fan said, "Can I borrow this company for a while? I'll explain the reason to you later."

Feng Ruolan replied without hesitation, "No problem, it's a small matter. Tomorrow I'll call a shareholders' meeting to vote Zhao Jiasheng out and appoint you as chairman. How does that sound?"

Lin Fan smiled and said, "Thank you, Sister."

Lin Fan went to sleep reassured.

The next day, at a private party in the circle of the wealthy.

Wei Qingxue arrived at the party venue in a strapless gown, immediately attracting the eyes of everyone around, stirring rounds of admiring whispers.

"Her figure is enviable!"

"She's really beautiful! Madam Wei sure gave birth to a stunner…"

Wei Qingxue was the most dazzling presence at the event. In truth, she hadn't spent much time dressing up; she was simply too beautiful and looked good in anything.

Walking alongside her, Li Xueyan relished the attention, eager to share in her daughter's glow and enjoy the admiration from others.

Wei Qingxue asked, "Which one is Young Master Zhao?"

She only wanted to quickly get this meeting over with and leave.

Li Xueyan said, "I haven't seen him yet."

Zhao Feng hadn't arrived, but Lin Fan did.

Among the expensively dressed attendees, only Lin Fan was casually clad in cheap streetwear, totaling perhaps less than 100 dollars, drawing curious glances.
