Chapter 41: Chapter 41 The Dignity of a Man

County Hospital entrance.

Chu Shihan, supported by Lin Fan, carefully walked out of the hospital ward. She couldn’t help it, as she still felt what only a woman who had just lost her innocence could understand—a tearing sensation, that burning pain.

She had pushed herself to the limit in front of Lin Fan’s parents, suppressing her discomfort. Yet, the smile on her face was so full of happiness as she pointed to the Mercedes-Benz and said, "Feng, you can keep this car; I’ll drive the Volkswagen back."

"No need, I’m fine with the Volkswagen. You keep the Mercedes; I don’t need that kind of status anyway."

Lin Fan knew well that Chu Shihan wanted to lend him face by providing the luxury vehicle, but he was just a junior clerk—why need a car worth a million?

"How could that be? Don’t forget, I’m now the Lin Family’s future daughter-in-law, and you’re the Chu Family’s future son-in-law. We must keep up appearances to some extent. Plus, I’ve prepared some gifts for you in the trunk."

Chu Shihan took Lin Fan’s hand and led him to the trunk of the car. As they opened it, they saw it was filled with rows of soft Zhonghua and Heaven and Earth cigarettes, along with bottles of Moutai Wuliangye.

"This is too valuable, though. I don’t usually smoke these kinds of cigarettes, and I definitely don’t drink such expensive liquor."

Looking at the trunk packed with alcohol and cigarettes—which together must cost at least a hundred thousand—Lin Fan couldn’t help scratching his head. He never imagined that Chu Shihan would prepare this for him; one bottle of Moutai was half a month’s salary for him.

"These aren’t for you to drink; they’re for your upcoming receptions and networking. After all, cigarettes are the ropes of friendship, and liquor is the ladder in officialdom. These two carry great significance. Just focus on working your way up, and don’t worry about the rest. I’ll support you from behind."
