Chapter 5 She's Not Worthy of You

On the second floor of the Western restaurant.

Chen Fan and Su Qingyan sat down again.

"I'm really sorry for startling you," Chen Fan said with an apologetic tone.

Su Qingyan stared at Chen Fan, "She was unfaithful to you and caused such a scene without reason. Do you plan to keep enduring this?"

Chen Fan smiled wryly, "I'm already planning to divorce."

Su Qingyan nodded, "That's a good decision. She doesn't deserve you."

After a slight pause, she added, "Although you're not exactly a catch either."

Chen Fan: "..."

There was a brief, awkward silence.

Suddenly, Chen Fan spoke earnestly, "Miss Su, I swear, what happened last night, I really didn't do it on purpose. But I've said I would take responsibility for you, and I will absolutely do it, with no broken promises!"

Su Qingyan curled her lips, "Take responsibility? With what? The twenty-something dollars you scraped together?"

Chen Fan's face turned red with embarrassment, but he didn't shrink back, "Even though I have nothing now, it doesn't mean it will always be this way. I will surely make everyone look at me differently in the future!"

Su Qingyan suddenly laughed, "You sound as naive as a child."

Chen Fan was serious, "I'm serious."

When Su Qingyan saw him like this, her smile gradually faded and her gaze became more intense as she looked into Chen Fan's eyes as if she saw through everything he was, "Alright then, let me help you understand reality."

"Do you know who I am?"

Chen Fan shook his head, "I don't know, but I can feel that you're no ordinary person."

Su Qingyan said with a smile, "Haven't you thought of searching for my name on your phone?"

Chen Fan quickly pulled out his phone, typed in the three characters "Su Qingyan," and upon seeing the search results, his face was struck with deep shock.

"Su... Miss Su of the Su Family, president of Qingyan Pharmaceuticals, you... you..."

Chen Fan was somewhat tongue-tied. He had speculated before that Su Qingyan was the daughter of a wealthy family, but he had never imagined that she would be Miss Su of the Su Family!

In Jiang City, the Su Family was the sky!

He had actually slept with the Miss Su of the Su Family!

Su Qingyan watched Chen Fan's reaction, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, "What? Are you scared now?"

Chen Fan was at a loss, truly intimidated by Su Qingyan's background.

Su Qingyan continued, "Moreover, I can tell you clearly that what you have seen is just the surface. Yet even with just this, you would never be able to reach it in your lifetime. Do you still think you have the capability to take responsibility for me?"

Chen Fan took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and his gaze became even more resolute, "No matter who you are, even if your status is terrifying, I will still take responsibility for you!"

If it had been before, Chen Fan indeed wouldn't have had the qualifications to say such things to Su Qingyan, but now it was different—he had the inheritance from Jiuyou Immortal Emperor.

With enough power, he could get everything he wanted, money, authority, status. With absolute power, they were all within easy reach.

Su Qingyan was stunned; she had not expected this guy to be so stubborn, but it also made her notice something different about Chen Fan compared to those sons of wealthy families.

"I don't know whether to call you brave or foolish," Su Qingyan said as she turned to look out the window.

Chen Fan looked at Su Qingyan earnestly, word by word, "Give me some time, and I will prove it to you with actions!"

Su Qingyan waved her hand, not wanting to continue this topic.

She pointed to Chen Fan's backpack, "You look like you've been kicked out of the house."

Chen Fan replied awkwardly, "It's... I left on my own initiative."

Su Qingyan placed a set of keys in front of Chen Fan, "This is the key to one of my vacant residences. You can stay there for now, as a thank you for correcting the medical prescription."

"Miss Su, this..." Chen Fan felt embarrassed.

Su Qingyan stood up, "First, I don't like owing favors. Second, if you don't even have a place to stay, how are you going to take responsibility for me?"

Chen Fan, realizing how dire his situation was, with the twenty-something dollars in his possession not even enough for a hotel stay, gratefully accepted the key, "Miss Su, thank you. I will definitely not let you down!"

"Pshh." Su Qingyan no longer paid attention to Chen Fan and headed downstairs.

Chen Fan was brimming with confidence. He had never felt such a firm belief before.

"Wait, Miss Su's second sentence, does that mean she's agreeing to give me a chance?"

He suddenly realized this, abruptly looked up, but found that Su Qingyan's figure had already disappeared.

...

Golden Lake Villa district.

Chen Fan stood in front of a luxurious standalone villa, silent for five minutes.

"Is this the power of the Su family's young miss, just a vacant residence, and it's this extravagant?" Chen Fan murmured to himself.

He had followed the address on the key fob, never expecting that Su Qingyan would give him the keys to a villa.

"It seems that being responsible for her won't be an easy task. However, at least I consider myself a cultivator now; this little challenge is nothing."

Without fussing, Chen Fan opened the villa's door and walked in.

After learning of Su Qingyan's identity, he felt the pressure too, so he didn't plan to waste time. The first thing after settling down was to cultivate.

"The Qi Refining Realm is just the foundation of cultivation in the world of the Jiuyou Immortal Emperor, but on Earth, you can already strut around confidently."

"Reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm is even better—you can call the wind and summon the rain, thunderous like an immortal."

"Let's set a small goal first, reaching the Foundation Establishment Realm for starters."

Chen Fan familiarized himself with the Void Body Refining Skills in their entirety, steadying his Qi Cultivation at the first level.

Then, he searched for a few top martial arts skills in his inherited memories to learn, for without them, his great strength would be of little use, and his power would certainly be greatly discounted.

Chen Fan found that after stepping onto the path of cultivation, his learning ability increased by more than ten-fold. He completed several martial arts skills in just two hours,

Seeing he still had plenty of time left, Chen Fan didn't plan to slack off and began to learn the "Nine Revolutions Resurrection Needle" from the inheritance memory.

This needle skill was part of immortal medical skills, so miraculous that even if a common person entered the Hall of the King of Hell, applying this skill could bring them back.

In the blink of an eye, it was already evening.

Chen Fan sat cross-legged on the carpet in the villa's living room, eyes closed in concentration. A strange halo surrounded him, and his pores opened and closed, absorbing the surrounding halo.

After a long while, Chen Fan abruptly opened his eyes, and his bones made a crackling sound.

"Cultivating all afternoon, far from tiring me out, has actually left me feeling refreshed. The Void Body Refining Skills truly is The Greatest Divine Skill through the Ages." Chen Fan said with a smile as he stood up, "It's just that the spiritual energy on Earth seems to be quite thin. Relying solely on absorbing spiritual energy might take years to reach the Foundation Establishment Realm."

"It seems I need to figure out some other method."

Just then his phone rang. He looked at it, and it was Qin Lan calling.

"What's up?" Chen Fan answered the call.

"Chen Fan, well... I've reflected on today's event and honestly feel that I was in the wrong. Do you have time now? I've reserved a private room at Dragon Ascend Hotel and plan to formally apologize to you in person," Qin Lan said with an unprecedented gentleness in her tone.

Chen Fan took a deep breath, surprised that Qin Lan would take the initiative to apologize.

"Okay, I'll be there." Chen Fan hesitated for a moment but finally decided to go.

Half an hour later, Chen Fan arrived in the lobby of Dragon Ascend Hotel.

He found the private room where Qin Lan was and entered.

As soon as he was inside, the door was shut behind him and locked.

Only then did he notice, aside from Qin Lan, there was Sun Jiancheng and seven muscular men.

Qin Lan stood up and threw herself into Sun Jiancheng's arms, "Darling, I told you this fool would fall for it, right? You must avenge me today; my face still hurts!"

Sun Jiancheng stared coldly at Chen Fan, "You've really grown some guts to let another woman hit Qin Lan. Do you prefer to have your legs broken or your hands? Pick one."

It was at this moment that Chen Fan realized he had been tricked.

His expression darkened, and his gaze turned icy, "If you apologize now, on your knees, it's not too late!"
