"Manager Su, I did this for your own good. You deserve a better man. You shouldn’t be with someone like Lin Xuan, who’s an utter waste!" Ye Li shouted fiercely.
Jiang Qing shook her head.
This guy had some nerve, insulting Lin Xuan right in front of Manager Su.
Wait, did he say his name was Ye Li?
She had met Ye Li before, a few times when he met with Manager Su due to Lin Xuan’s matters. He even managed to get Manager Su’s phone number under the pretense of wanting to help keep an eye on Lin Xuan.
Jiang Qing could tell that Ye Li had feelings for Manager Su.
She stared at him for quite a while, her mouth twitching in sympathy.
Oof, this guy’s really in for it.
She remembered Ye Li was a pretty handsome young man, but judging by his messed-up face, even his parents wouldn’t recognize him right now.
At that moment, Su Hua’s eyes blazed with fury.
“Lin Xuan is excellent. My man doesn’t need your judgment, you outsider!” Su Hua’s voice was ice cold.
“Su… Su Hua? The Su Hua from Su Corporation?” the one-eyed mercenary exclaimed, his eyes wide with shock.
The scarred mercenary stared at Su Hua’s face for a long time, his face turning as pale as a ghost.
It really was Su Hua!
Su Hua’s identity wasn’t just as simple as the CEO of Su Corporation!
Although no one knew exactly what her status was in the underworld, there was a saying among the underground circles… Don’t mess with Su Hua, no matter what!
Damn it!
Ye Li hadn’t told them that Lin Xuan was backed by someone as powerful as Su Hua!
If they had known, not even a hundred guts would’ve convinced them to help Ye Li deal with Lin Xuan!
Both mercenaries breathed a sigh of relief, glad that Lin Xuan hadn’t been hurt. Otherwise, they’d have no idea how they’d face the consequences!
Their reactions didn’t escape Su Hua’s notice. She turned her icy gaze toward them.
“Explain, what’s going on?”
Both mercenaries trembled under her glare.
They both pointed at Ye Li in unison. “Miss Su, he’s the one who paid us to take photos of Lin Xuan with those two women! We didn’t deliberately target Lin Xuan; we were just taking orders for money. Please forgive us, Miss Su.”
Su Hua’s cold, piercing gaze moved to the two women.
The women immediately knelt on the ground. “We were also paid to do this, we were just following orders.”
“It was him!” Both women pointed at Ye Li. “He paid us to do this, and he even had Lin Xuan drugged!”
Drugged?
Su Hua’s eyes narrowed sharply, and a wave of murderous intent surged through her.
The bodyguards noticed how the mercenaries immediately crumbled under Su Hua’s pressure. Seeing her aura and the dozen or so bodyguards surrounding her, especially when even the boss of the glamorous nightclub, Wang Jianghai, was following behind her like a meek puppy, they realized just how powerful Su Hua was.
The bodyguards stammered, “We were just following orders, Miss Su. We didn’t harm Lin Xuan at all. We’ve been taking hits the whole time!”
Su Hua’s cold voice cut through the air: “You cut him with a knife.”
The bodyguards: “???” Just a little scratch?
Ahhhhh!
They’re being framed! That little scratch couldn’t have been more than a self-inflicted accident, right?
After listening to the mercenaries, the women, and the bodyguards, Su Hua had a general understanding of what had happened.
Lin Xuan had been drugged, but he’d managed to outsmart the situation with his own wits.
If Lin Xuan had fallen for the trap, she didn’t even want to imagine…
Su Hua crouched in front of Ye Li. “Who gave you the guts to mess with him, huh?” Her voice was deadly cold.
Ye Li’s gaze was filled with hurt as he looked at Su Hua.
How could she look at him like that?
“Manager Su, everything I did was for you!” Ye Li said sadly.
“Lin Xuan is my everything. Since you’re doing this for me, then why are you trying to frame him?” Su Hua’s voice sounded gentle, but it was laced with chilling disdain.
Ye Li felt an overwhelming sense of dread in his heart.
Wang Jianghai, sensing that Su Hua was about to deal with Ye Li, quietly exited the room and made arrangements to guard the entrance, ensuring no one could get in.
“Manager Su, I’m only trying to win you over. I wanted you to see my true feelings for you. Everything I’ve done, I did for you, Manager Su.” Ye Li gazed at Su Hua passionately.
“For me? Hmph, what a righteous excuse.”
Su Hua’s eyes narrowed, and a wave of murderous intent flashed in her gaze. Anyone who dared to harm Lin Xuan deserved to die.
But for Ye Li, she wanted to make him suffer miserably instead.
“Didn’t you enjoy drugging people and hiring women to target Lin Xuan? Then I’ll take your own medicine, and serve it back to you.”
“However…” Su Hua paused, her red lips curling into a cold smile. “I’m gifting you men, not women.”
The room collectively gasped.
Su Hua was ruthless indeed.
Two men… If Ye Li didn’t go insane, it would be a testament to his mental fortitude.
Lin Xuan, on the other hand, was feeling pretty satisfied. Being protected by his wife felt amazing.
Upon hearing Su Hua’s words, Ye Li’s eyes widened in horror.
Su Hua was going to drug him and send in two men?!
“No, no! Su Hua, you can’t do this to me! I love you so much, how could you?” Ye Li protested in disbelief.
Su Hua glanced at him with obvious annoyance.
She picked up a packet of powder from beside Ye Li, sniffing it. Her expression turned even colder.
"This is what you fed to Lin Xuan, isn’t it? Since that’s the case, you should try it yourself."
Su Hua was about to forcibly shove the powder down Ye Li’s throat herself—anyone who harmed Lin Xuan deserved to be dealt with personally by her.
Just as Su Hua was about to grab Ye Li’s chin, Lin Xuan stopped her.
Su Hua paused, her expression softening slightly.
“Sweetheart, don’t let him sully your hands. Let me do it.” Lin Xuan took the powder from Su Hua, grabbed Ye Li’s chin, and forced his mouth open, tipping the powder into his throat.
Jiang Qing: “…”
Lin Xuan, your innocent sweet flower, or uh, sweet grass persona is kind of crumbling here, isn’t it?
But when Jiang Qing looked at Su Hua, she saw admiration shining in her eyes.
Got it, then.
Manager Su not only thinks it’s fine, she’s actually approving of Lin Xuan’s behavior. They really are cut from the same cloth.
“Manager Su, what about them?” Jiang Qing glanced at the two women, the bodyguards, the mercenaries, and the two men who’d been bribed to leak information.
The two men were so terrified they’d wet themselves, their faces as pale as paper.
Su Hua glanced at them dismissively. “Send them to the Golden Triangle as slaves. Whether they survive and how badly they suffer depends on their own luck.”
Their faces turned ashen.
The mercenaries, who had a good understanding of the Golden Triangle, felt like they might as well be dead.
Life as a slave in the Golden Triangle was the lowest of the low. They could be humiliated at will, with almost no chance of survival…
They were finished…
“Jiang Qing, find two male escorts.” Su Hua ordered calmly.
“Yes, Manager Su.” Jiang Qing nodded and made a call, relaying Su Hua’s instructions.
