Starting as a War God: Global Goddesses Blocking my Door

In the eyes of Ma Wenbin, Kerry, and others, Smith had monopolized the throne as the world's top car modification master for decades, standing as a living fossil in global car modification circles.

Even if Ye Fan had modified the AE86 to perfection, it didn't qualify him to have Smith seek apprenticeship with him.

Dissuaded by the crowd, Smith's aged eyes shone brightly as he said, "No need for further words, my mind is made up on paying respects!"

His car modification skills had long since hit a bottleneck, and to achieve a full breakthrough, he needed guidance from a master. After waiting for many years, he finally came across Ye Fan, which excited and invigorated Smith immensely.

"Senior Ye, please, you must take me on as your disciple!" Smith pleaded solemnly, staring at Ye Fan.

Seeing Smith kneeling on the ground, requesting to become his disciple, Ye Fan was baffled. He waved his hand dismissively, "Another apprenticeship? Forget it, I'm not interested in taking disciples! If you're really obsessed with car modification, I could lend you the AE86 to study for a while!"

"What? Not interested in taking disciples?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Wenbin, Kerry, and the others all opened their mouths in shock.

The world's top car modification master, Smith, kneeling to take someone as his master, and being coldly rejected by Ye Fan?

Everyone felt as if this were all a surreal dream, knowing that, usually, it was Smith who rejected others, not the other way around.

Rejected by Ye Fan, Smith didn't feel disheartened because he knew that Ye Fan's car modification skills were at least decades ahead of the current times, and such lofty figures typically didn't take disciples lightly.

In front of everyone, Smith expressed his gratitude with a sincere face, "Thank you, Senior Ye!"

Although he didn't become a disciple, Ye Fan agreed to lend him the AE86 to study for some time, and he believed that with his talent in car modification, after thorough research, his skills would inevitably break through to an entirely new domain.

"Sister Jingwen, lending it to him for research shouldn't be a problem, right?" Ye Fan turned his head to look at Zhuang Jingwen.

Zhuang Jingwen nodded, "Lending it out is fine, no problem!"

"Great! Then go ahead and take it to study!" Ye Fan chuckled upon receiving Zhuang Jingwen's permission.

Hearing this, Smith's spirits lifted as he said excitedly, "Kerry, hurry, take this AE86 back. I must study it closely; my car modification skills might just break through thanks to this AE86!"

"Yes, teacher!" Kerry responded with respect.

Watching Smith and his disciple Kerry hurry off from the peak of Zifeng Mountain, the shock in the hearts of Ma Wenbin, Xu Ruoxuan, and others was slow to fade.

Then, Ye Fan turned to Xu Ruoxuan, "Miss Xu, according to our previous agreement, you now not only have to pay me the cost of goods but also an additional twenty million in interest!"

"No problem!" Xu Ruoxuan replied with a pursed smile.

The next moment, Xu Ruoxuan snapped her fingers, and a servant of the Xu Family handed over a blank check.

After taking the blank check, Xu Ruoxuan wrote down an amount of one hundred million, then passed it to Ye Fan, "Mr. Ye, this is a check for one hundred million, please keep it safe!"

"Thank you!"

Having successfully reclaimed the payment, a smile filled Ye Fan's face.

Staring at Ye Fan, Xu Ruoxuan said slowly, "The Xu Family is a Super Family Clan in Central Plains known for its reputation. Mr. Ye, do you know why the Xu Family withheld the eighty million owed to the Su Family?"

"Miss Xu, to be honest, I'm not interested in that because I don't hold a post in the Su Family. Today, I mainly came to recover the payment for Ruoxue. If Miss Xu wants to vent her grievances, I don't mind listening!" Ye Fan said with a grin.

Xu Ruoxuan smiled and shook her head, "Mr. Ye is really straightforward. Then, let me tell you, the cosmetics provided by the Su Family to our Xu Family had numerous quality issues, and we had raised feedback with the Su Family right from the beginning. Initially, Su Tianhao promised that such problems would not recur."

"However, in the subsequent dealings, the goods provided by the Su Family continued to have a large number of defects, leading to many complaints from our clients. This is the main reason our Xu Family has not settled the payment!"

"That's pretty much what I guessed!" Ye Fan smirked.

Originally, the cooperation between the Su Family and Xu Family was facilitated by Old Madam Su. To increase Su Tianhao's influence within the Su Family, she specifically put him in charge of this order.

In Ye Fan's impression, while Su Tianhao seemed polished and glamorous, he was actually a talentless individual with no real learning or skill. If there hadn't been an issue with the goods, the Xu Family, as a Super Family Clan, would not have inexplicably fallen behind on their debts to the Su Family.

Xu Ruoxuan said teasingly, "Please inform the Su Family of this matter on my behalf, Mr. Ye. This marks the end of our collaboration with the Su Family! Regarding the cosmetics the Su Family failed to deliver as per our contract, I will personally send them a lawyer's letter!"

"Miss Xu, this matter between your Xu Family and the Su Family has nothing to do with an outsider like me. I'll not interfere further! In any case, thank you, Miss Xu, for facilitating the payment of the goods."

Having received the payment, Ye Fan had no desire to waste further words with Xu Ruoxuan. He turned to Zhuang Jingwen and smiled, "Sister Jingwen, the wind is strong at the top of the mountain and your wound has just begun to scar. We should head back early."

"Mm, alright!" Zhuang Jingwen nodded gently.

After leaving Zifeng Mountain, Ye Fan immediately escorted Zhuang Jingwen back to Tianhu Mountain Villa.

"This Ye Fan is quite interesting," Xu Ruoxuan remarked as she watched Ye Fan depart, ripples of interest appearing in her beautiful eyes.

After a pause, Xu Ruoxuan instructed, "Research everything about Ye Fan, and don't overlook any details!"

"Yes, Miss!" a servant of the Xu Family replied respectfully.

Being a woman of high intelligence from around the world, her instincts told her that Ye Fan was definitely not as simple as he appeared on the surface.

...

Meanwhile, inside Su Corporation.

Su Tianhao was pushed into the general manager's office in his wheelchair by Su Yue, with Old Madam Su following behind them.

Seeing Su Tianhao appear without warning, Su Ruoxue furrowed her brow and asked, "Why aren't you resting and recuperating in the hospital? What are you doing here?"

"Of course, I'm here to see you become a laughingstock!" Su Tianhao said with a sinister face.

When Old Madam Su made things difficult for Su Ruoxue, forcing her to recover the eighty million yuan in overdue payments from the Xu Family, if Su Ruoxue could not bring it back today, she would be immediately suspended and kicked out.

Su Tianhao reveled in the misfortune, knowing that Old Madam Su would continue to target Su Ruoxue in order to support him as the future head of the Su Family.

Su Ruoxue's face darkened, "Are you so certain you'll see my disgrace?"

"Hmph! Su Ruoxue, stop pretending. It's already three in the afternoon, and there aren't many hours left until the end of the day. Don't forget what Grandma said—if you can't recover the overdue payment from the Xu Family, you must resign and get out!" Su Yue mocked from the side.

Hearing Su Yue's words, Su Ruoxue's face paled.

With a scoff, Su Tianhao added, "I knew you wouldn't be able to recover the overdue payment from the Xu Family. In my opinion, stop occupying the toilet if you can't shit. Just resign and get out quickly, to avoid further embarrassment!"

"Exactly, Su Ruoxue, if you have any sense, get out of here quickly!" Su Yue pressured.

Berated by the Su siblings, Su Ruoxue's complexion turned as white as paper.

She was well aware of the difficulty in claiming the eighty million yuan owed by the Xu Family. Perhaps even Ye Fan's involvement would be futile. Was she truly going to be suspended today and ridiculed by the Su siblings?

"Who says Ruoxue can't recover the payment? Open your damned eyes wide and see what this is!"

Suddenly, a mocking voice rang out, and Ye Fan appeared holding a check from the Xu Family worth a hundred million yuan.
