Chapter 837: Chapter 837
Li Ruo pulled herself together once again as she handled Han Shiguang's posthumous affairs.
Beside her stood a young figure with a straight posture, becoming her support during her darkest times.
This figure was, of course, Su Fan.
From then on, no matter what Li Ruo did, Su Fan would accompany her, providing her protection.
Su Fan now had a slight notoriety in the upper echelons of Tianhai's society.
His fame was not due to his extraordinary medical skills, but because he had clashed with Liu Chuanxiong.
The surveillance footage of their encounter on the small island during a sea fishing trip had been seen by many important figures in Tianhai.
From that brief footage, many top leaders in Tianhai witnessed that the renowned Liu Chuanxiong was no match for Su Fan.
The way Su Fan treated Li Ruo now clearly reflected his attitude toward the Han family after Han Shiguang's demise.
This caused some restless business magnates in Tianhai to temporarily refrain from taking any action.
The consequences of angering a grandmaster at the Qi Transformation stage were severe, and Han Shiguang's death was a vivid example.
However, in the Han family business, there were still many who did not appreciate what they had and could not restrain their ambition.
Given their identities and channels of information, they naturally couldn't fathom how powerful the young man beside Han Shiguang's widow truly was.
Han Shiguang's short life was remarkably brilliant.
From his childhood, he excelled in academics, progressing directly through bachelor's, master's, and doctoral degrees.
Upon entering the workforce, he became the youngest senior vice president at Global Yew Capital.
His funeral was highly prestigious.
All the prominent figures in Tianhai attended, holding a grand burial for him.
With the end of his funeral, the Han family of Tianhai stepped into a new phase without Han Shiguang.
With Han Shiguang gone, it was uncertain how far the Han family of Tianhai could go.
After Han Shiguang's funeral, his wife Li Ruo, per Su Fan's request, invited all the Han family members to her villa for a family meeting.
The Han family rose to prominence due to Han Shiguang's father.
Old Mr. Han was also an extraordinary man, but he passed away due to old age two years ago.
With Old Mr. Han's passing, Han Shiguang completely became the leader of the vast Han family.
He surpassed his predecessor, possessing even greater capabilities than Old Mr. Han.
Yet no one expected that such a person would meet with misfortune and pass away prematurely.
Other than Han Shiguang, the members of the Han family were incompetent, albeit highly ambitious.
Han Shijing, the second son, believed that now with his elder brother dead, he should become the head of the Han family.
Han Shijing's villa was located in Long Bay.
It was quite far from Han Shiguang's home.
The reason for living such a distance away was Han Shijing's deep-seated dislike for his elder brother.
Among the Han family members, Han Shijing had some ability, but compared to Han Shiguang, a prodigy in business, he was worlds apart.
Originally, Han Shijing thought that with Han Shiguang around, the Han family didn't need him to do anything.
He just needed to enjoy his life comfortably, and his days would pass by.
But now, since Han Shiguang was dead, naturally, it should be his turn, Han Shijing, to take over.
Not only did he want to become the family head, but he also coveted Han Shiguang's wife!
He had always admired his beautiful sister-in-law.
In the beginning, he and Li Ruo were classmates.
During a class reunion, he invited Li Ruo and other classmates to his home, but ultimately Li Ruo took a liking to Han Shiguang instead.
However, it didn't matter. He would soon reclaim everything he had lost.
The Han family empire, built by Han Shiguang, would all fall into his hands.
