In the early morning, Lin Ran woke up to find Luo Yao gone again.
Does this girl not need sleep?
After finishing his breakfast, Lin Ran headed to the walk-in closet he had never entered before.
It was filled with luxurious clothes he had never even glanced at, because he didn't want anything from Luo Yao.
But now, things were different. He now belonged entirely to Luo Yao, so he might as well enjoy the perks.
Each piece of clothing was like a work of art. He chose one that seemed decent and changed into it.
Looking at himself in the mirror, he sighed—clothes really do make the man. The only flaw was his messy hair.
He thought for a moment and sent Luo Yao a message.
Now, no matter what he did, he wanted to report it to Luo Yao. It wasn't out of fear, but to cater to her delicate emotions.
To outsiders, she was ruthless and decisive, but Lin Ran knew how sensitive her heart was.
[Honey! I want to go out and get a haircut, then head to the Lin Family house to pick up some things.]
Soon, Luo Yao replied.
[I'll send the stylist to the manor. Is that okay?]
Lin Ran: [Okay]
Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, Luo Yao stared at the message, her mind racing.
"Honey..."
She loved that term.
Thinking about it, she changed the nickname [Ran] to [Husband].
Not long after, the stylist arrived at the manor, designing a hairstyle worth tens of millions according to Lin Ran's request.
"Uncle Fu, can you lend me a car?" It was impossible to hail a taxi at the manor.
Uncle Fu chuckled. "Mr. Lin, you're joking. You can take any car from the garage—they're all gifts from Miss Luo!"
Lin Ran suddenly remembered that Luo Yao had given him many things in the past, but he never even looked at them.
In the storage cabinet of the closet, there were numerous property deeds, car certificates, and a black card with an unknown balance.
"Alright! Could you also prepare some bodyguards for me to accompany me on an errand?"
"Of course, Mr. Lin!"
Entering the garage, Lin Ran was blown away—it was more luxurious than any luxury car show in the world.
He picked a Koenigsegg One:1, a car so expensive he had never even seen one before, and now he could drive it out to pick a fight.
Soon, a super luxury convoy was cruising through the streets of Beijing. Any other car on the road made way for them.
Following closely behind Lin Ran was Uncle Fu's car; he absolutely couldn't let Lin Ran escape again, especially after seeing how important Lin Ran was to Miss Luo.
This was a man who could make Miss Luo smile; he must not be lost.
Before long, Lin Ran parked the car neatly outside the Lin Family villa, flanked by ten bodyguards, and marched into the villa.
Inside the villa, Lin Jian had just been picked up from the hospital by the Lin Family. The family of three was chatting happily.
"Dad! Are you really not going to do anything about Brother? Contact him! If he's still alive, we can at least ask the kidnappers to leave us a whole body. After all, he's my beloved brother!"
"Yes, honey! Jian is right. Ran is also my son! You should talk to the kidnappers! Ask them to leave us a whole body so we can be properly buried, right?"
Lin Tianba scrunched up his face and immediately got a headache just thinking about that disobedient child.
Lin Ran had always been a well-behaved son. Why did I scold him last time?
If I hadn't scolded him, maybe we could have found a way to save him. But now…
"Humph! Don't bother with that ungrateful son. I'm his father. Even if he comes back, he has to kneel down and apologize before I’ll let him return to the Lin Family!"
Liu Yuemei looked worried on the surface, but inwardly, she was delighted.
Lin Tianba’s attitude toward Lin Ran had become nearly irreversible.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, the villa's door was smashed open by brute force.
"Old bastard! Your daddy is here to see you!"
The familiar voice stunned the three inside.
Seeing Lin Ran, Lin Tianba exploded in rage, pulling out a belt.
"You little bastard, you dare come back? If you don't kneel and apologize, I'll beat you to death!"
But before Lin Tianba could make a move, several bodyguards surged in from behind Lin Ran and pinned Lin Tianba to the ground, startling Lin Jian and his mother.
Lin Jian: "Brother is back! I missed you so much! I heard you were kidnapped, and I couldn't eat or sleep, just thinking about saving you!"
"But Brother, why did you come back and bring outsiders to bully Dad? Please release my dear father!"
Liu Yuemei: "Ran is back. You should let your father go. He's been so worried since you disappeared. He's been trying to contact the kidnappers to save you!"
Lin Ran: "……?"
Speechless.
With a single glance from Lin Ran, Lin Jian and Liu Yuemei were also pinned to the ground. A maid rushed out from the servant's quarters, froze when she saw it was Lin Ran.
"Master Lin!"
"Granny Wang, how are you?"
Granny Wang was the only person in the house Lin Ran didn't hate. She had helped him a lot in the past.
Lin Tianba, livid, struggled: "Ungrateful son, let me go! I'm your father!"
Lin Ran squatted down, took the belt from Lin Tianba, and flipped it around, hitting him hard with the buckle.
"Ah!"
A scream rang out as Lin Tianba bled from the head.
"Old man, remember this: don't ever say you're my father when we meet. And every time we see each other, you have to kneel and kowtow. Otherwise, I'll beat you like this every time!"
"Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah..."
Lin Tianba's screams echoed as Lin Jian and his mother watched in shock.
Satisfied and pleased with himself, Lin Ran stretched, then turned to Lin Jian and his mother.
Disgusting.
Lin Jian and Liu Yuemei met Lin Lan's gaze, not afraid, but with a trace of… excitement?
Yes, excitement.
Lin Ran slowly spoke: "Lawyer Xu, the rest is up to you."
After speaking, Lin Ran slowly went upstairs, returning to his old storage room.
Xu Kai, a top lawyer, stepped forward and handed a document to Lin Tianba, still groaning on the ground.
"What… is this?"
Xu Kai: "This is a document to sever ties between you and Mr. Lin Ran. Please sign."
Lin Tianba was stunned, unable to calm down.
When Lin Ran came downstairs again, Lin Tianba still hadn't signed. Seeing Lin Ran holding a suitcase, he suppressed his anger and asked:
"Ungrateful son! Are you serious?"
Lin Ran nodded: "What else did you expect?"
Lin Tianba laughed, a forced laugh.
"Hahaha! Fine, fine, fine! Listen to me, ungrateful son—you’ll never set foot in the Lin Family again! Even if you kneel and beg me, I will never recognize you as my son!"
Lin Ran smiled coolly: "Deal!"
Losing his cool, Lin Tianba signed the document, and Lin Jian and Liu Yuemei exchanged knowing smiles.
Lin Ran collected the papers, finding the sorrowful yet smirking faces of Lin Jian and his mother amusing.
"Oh, right! I’m taking my shares with me. The Suran Group's stock was left to me by my mother. You won't get a penny from me!"
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family.

However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter.
