Chapter 56 - Now This is What Love Should Look Like!
“Lin Fan! You…!”
Zheng Shaohao angrily gripped the microphone and was about to storm off the stage, but luckily, Liao Bin stepped forward in time to stop him.
“Shaohao, today is our class reunion. Let's keep things friendly. Don't make the atmosphere too tense. Just let it go.”
“Hmph!”
Zheng Shaohao let out a cold snort, shoved the microphone into Liao Bin's hand, and stormed off the stage in a huff.
“Everyone, my apologies. It's been a few years since we've seen our classmate Lin Fan, and it seems he's become much more witty and humorous. It looks like everyone has changed and grown over these years.”
Liao Bin took the microphone and, with a grin, smoothed over the situation. Then, changing his tone, he enthusiastically roused the crowd:
“Next up, without further ado, let's move right into the next segment—free-for-all chatting and eating! Let's all rediscover the feeling of our gatherings back in university!”
“Music~! Music!”
With that, Liao Bin snapped his fingers, and the hall was instantly filled with passionate and cheerful music. The tense, confrontational atmosphere from just a moment ago was instantly extinguished by the sound.
The attendees either walked onto the stage one by one to dance to the beat of the music or freely went to the food tables to pick out fine wine and delicacies.
Lin Fan's relationship with the other people in the class was just average, so he didn't go up to join the crowd. Instead, he sat at the table with Zhou Yan and Lu Zhai, watching their old classmates and chatting idly:
“Lin Fan, look over there. That's Xiao Hui from our class. She got married two years ago, and I heard she's already had her second child!”
“And Kun Kun, he was the best basketball player in university, tons of female fans liked him.”
“And that one over there, Zhao Qiang. That kid was like a block of wood in university, yet even he managed to find a girlfriend before me!”
Listening to Zhou Yan's tone, which was full of envy and jealousy, Lin Fan shot him a speechless glance.
“With your qualifications, isn't finding a girlfriend a matter of minutes?”
“If you publicly announced you were looking for a match, the number of girls willing to be set up with you could probably fill the Huangpu River. Isn't it just that your standards are too high?”
“Since university, I remember girls have been confessing to you all the time, right?”
“Sigh, it's true that quite a few girls have confessed to me, but none of them are my type.”
Zhou Yan sighed helplessly, his expression dejected.
“They only approached me and confessed after they found out I was rich.”
“They can cheat me of my feelings, they can cheat me of my body, but they cannot cheat me of my money!”
“I don't want a woman who covets my money; I want a woman who covets my body! Do you understand?!”
As he spoke, Zhou Yan leaned excitedly towards Lin Fan, then his expression gradually filled with disappointment.
“Forget it. A guy like you who already has a sister-in-law, how could you understand the struggles of a single dog like me…”
Lin Fan: “…”
Lin Fan was speechless, looking at him as if he were an idiot.
He's clearly a rich young master, yet he's struggling to find a partner because of this kind of problem…
“In this day and age, marriage requires material security. Without money, what girl would be willing to be with you.”
Lu Zhai pushed up the frame of his glasses with his middle finger and hit the nail on the head.
“Hmm…”
Zhou Yan became pensive for a moment, then his eyes suddenly lit up, and he excitedly pointed a finger at Long Yue, who was gnawing on a steak to the side.
“Who says so!”
“Look at Lin Fan, he doesn't have any money, but isn't sister-in-law still devotedly following him?”
“The two of them are the beautiful love I'm searching for! Even if one party has no money, the other still chooses to stay by their side through thick and thin!”
“Now this is what love should look like!!”
Long Yue: “……”
Lin Fan: “...…”
Long Yue and Lin Fan fell into an awkward silence.
Long Yue, in particular, looked as uncomfortable as if she had just swallowed a fly.
She had just come here to quietly freeload a meal, how did she get dragged into this out of nowhere…
Lu Zhai looked at Lin Fan and Long Yue, his brows furrowed tightly.
Sister-in-law has such a good aura, she's so beautiful, and her family background clearly isn't bad. How could she have fallen for our Brother Fan…
This was a point he really couldn't figure out…
The only possible explanation is, as Zhou Yan said, that sister-in-law isn't coveting Brother Fan's money, but his body...?
In that case, it seems Brother Fan's 'prowess' is quite impressive...
Thinking of this, Lu Zhai couldn't help but shift his curious gaze to Lin Fan.
Compared to before, Brother Fan really had gotten much stronger...
“What about you? I remember your family's not bad off either. How come you still haven't found a wife?” Zhou Yan retorted to Lu Zhai.
Lu Zhai came back to his senses, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly, and said something shocking:
“Hmph, who says I haven't found a wife? I've already found one!”
Lin Fan and Zhou Yan were shocked.
“Ah, you're already married?!”
“That's right! Just yesterday!”
Lu Zhai nodded and, under the shocked gazes of Lin Fan and Zhou Yan, showed them his phone screen.
“Look! This is my 300th dear wife! Isn't she cute~!”
Lin Fan: “...…”
Zhou Yan: “...…”
Looking at the girl on the phone screen, both Lin Fan and Zhou Yan's fists clenched. They suddenly had the urge to punch him.
On his phone screen, his so-called wife was just a silver-haired, red-eyed fox-girl character with an impressive bust.
They never should have had any expectations for this guy…
It's obvious when you think about it. There's no way this otaku could have found a real wife…
“You… you really deserve to be single!”
“Are you planning to spend the rest of your life with your 2D waifus?”
“Hmm… not necessarily!”
Lu Zhai replied after thinking seriously for a moment, his expression pensive.
Hearing this, both Lin Fan and Zhou Yan's eyes lit up.
Could it be that this guy can still be saved?
“Oh!? Then what kind of woman are you planning to find in the future?”
“Hmm… preferably good-looking, with fair and delicate skin!”
“Mhm! A fair-skinned and beautiful wife is indeed every man's dream.”
Lin Fan and Zhou Yan nodded in agreement.
“And then… her height should preferably not be too short, but not taller than me either. About the same height as me would be best, otherwise it's inconvenient if she's too tall.”
“Mhm! Height is indeed very important!”
“And what else… It would be even better if her voice is pleasant to listen to.”
“Mhm! A pleasant voice, that is indeed a plus.”
“And also… she must have a pair of fluffy animal ears and a tail~”
“Mhm! Fluffy animal ears and a tail aren't bad either… huh?”
Lin Fan and Zhou Yan subconsciously nodded, then abruptly snapped to their senses.
Wait a minute!
What normal woman would have a pair of animal ears and a tail!
Lu Zhai paid no attention to Lin Fan and Zhou Yan. The more he spoke, the more excited he became, a smile of deep immersion in his fantasy gradually spreading across his face as he continued talking to himself:
“A more buxom figure would be best, so at night I can hug her fluffy tail to keep warm and kiss her cute little ears~ hehehe~”
As he spoke, he wrapped his arms around himself and began to wriggle his body back and forth, completely lost in his wonderful fantasy…
Seeing this scene, Long Yue couldn't help but show a look of disgust.
“Demon Sovereign, this friend of yours seems to be a pervert…?”
The mortal men of this world… not only are they interested in the Hehuan sirens, but they won't even let the beast women of the demon race go…
“No 'seems to be' about it. He is a pervert…”
Lin Fan corrected her with a helpless sigh.
He had thought Lu Zhai was really planning to find a wife, but in the end, after all that talk, he was still talking about his animal-girl wife…
Besides the Immortal-Demon Continent, he had no idea where he was supposed to find an animal-girl wife for him…
This guy is a completely hopeless case…
