"Yes, yes, yes."
Old Master Chen and the others responded perfunctorily. "They won't break up, alright?"
"Old Man Su, it's getting late, so we'll be heading back now."
"Scram, beat it." Old Master Su waved his hand dismissively.
He glared at their retreating figures.
Every single one of them was eyeing his future grandson-in-law.
This wouldn't do.
He had to limit Little Xuan's contact with them in the future. Also, they were right; he needed to push for the wedding. He had to bind Little Xuan and Hua'er together with a marriage certificate so he wouldn't have to worry about Little Xuan running away later.
Although given Little Xuan's character and his love for Hua'er, it was unlikely he would run off, it was better to be safe than sorry.
He had to prepare in advance!
If a good grandson-in-law like Little Xuan ran away, who would he cry to?
Meanwhile, seeing that the tide of public opinion on Weibo had completely reversed, Su Hua set down her phone with relief and continued her work.
A moment later, Jiang Qing walked into the office.
"President Su, I found out who it was," she said respectfully.
Su Hua put down her phone, narrowing her eyes dangerously. "Who did it?"
"I found out that a student from Shangqing University named Chen Mo called a teacher named Wang at Yundu University and leaked the news to her. Then, this Teacher Wang revealed the matter to the president of Yundu University," Jiang Qing explained.
The reason they found out so quickly was mainly because someone overheard Chen Mo's call with Teacher Wang from Yundu University, allowing them to follow the trail back to the source.
As for how the president of Yundu University was exposed, they followed the clues left by the paid internet trolls. With a little pressure, they spilled everything.
"President Su, Yundu University and Shangqing University are rivals. Because of Young Master Lin, Shangqing University has snatched away many top students. The president of Yundu University likely made this move to retaliate against Shangqing University and Young Master Lin, while simultaneously ruining the reputation of Shangqing's students," Jiang Qing speculated.
"Heh." Su Hua let out a low chuckle. "To dare move against my Xuan... they really must be tired of living."
"President Su, are you going to..."
"Expel them all." Su Hua's beautiful amber eyes glinted coldly. "Also, investigate the president of Yundu University thoroughly. See if he has engaged in any illegal activities."
"As for the student who leaked the news to Yundu University, expel him, and ensure he can't find a decent job in Yundu."
Since they dared to target her Xuan, they had to be prepared to lose everything.
"Yes, President Su," Jiang Qing replied.
In her heart, she silently lit three sticks of incense for Chen Mo, Teacher Wang, and the president of Yundu University.
Of all people to provoke, they chose Young Master Lin.
Wasn't that just a death wish?
Especially the president of Yundu University; even if he didn't die, he would be skinned alive.
Given his character, it was impossible for him to be free of corruption.
Shangqing University.
Wang Dahe specially ran to Lin Xuan's apartment, waiting to walk to the academic building with him.
"What's up? Spit it out," Lin Xuan asked, raising an eyebrow.
Dahe usually wouldn't come all the way to the apartment just to wait for him.
He definitely had something on his mind.
"Xuan, it's nothing much. I just wanted to ask you a question," Wang Dahe said with a grin.
"What question?" Lin Xuan asked.
"Nothing major, I just want to know, how did President Su fall for you?" Wang Dahe looked curious.
He was simply too curious about how President Su had fallen for Xuan.
He wanted to learn a thing or two from Xuan; maybe he could use the same methods to land a sugar mommy in the future. He really, really wanted to be a kept man.
Lin Xuan glanced at him and replied, "That's a simple question. The reason Hua likes me is mainly due to my handsome face and unique charm."
"Oh, come on." Wang Dahe rolled his eyes hard. "With the way you looked before? Handsome face and unique charm, my foot."
Old-fashioned glasses, long hair that almost covered his eyes.
An extremely tacky style.
Xuan wasn't much better off than him back then.
Especially since, at the time, Xuan was dead set on Qin Ruoyao.
He really couldn't figure out what President Su saw in Xuan.
Xuan was definitely blowing him off.
"Xuan, I have to get to the bottom of this today, or I'll keep pestering you!" Wang Dahe said.
"Fine, fine, fine," Lin Xuan said helplessly. "I'll tell you the reason."
"Do you remember when I disappeared for a while in the past?"
"I remember that. You were in your teens," Wang Dahe nodded. "After you came back, you had a fever for a while."
Speaking of which, the Lin family really wasn't humane.
They didn't care at all about Xuan's disappearance. It was Dahe who noticed Xuan hadn't come to school for several days and called the police.
The police couldn't find a trace of Xuan either.
Later, Xuan somehow returned. He wanted to ask Xuan what happened on the island, but Xuan said he didn't remember.
"That's right," Lin Xuan nodded. "We were both kidnapped and taken to a small island. We relied on each other to survive. Also, she got a fever on the island, and I took care of her for a while. Maybe that's why she fell for me."
"Holy crap, so you really saved her when you were kids, and that's why she likes you." Wang Dahe's eyes widened.
This was exactly like the plot of an idol drama he had imagined.
"Wait, Xuan, you remember what happened during your disappearance now?" Wang Dahe asked in surprise.
"Yes, I remember," Lin Xuan nodded.
Amnesia, falling for a scum woman, real and fake young masters... this was totally a novel plot.
"Xuan, let me tell you." Wang Dahe hooked his right arm around Lin Xuan's neck. "With what you and President Su have been through, if this were a novel, you'd definitely be the male and female leads."
"Yeah."
Lin Xuan nodded.
Sometimes he suspected he was living in a novel world. Spatial dimensions, Children of Destiny... these were things found only in novels.
Now, they were actually happening to him and Hua.
Sometimes, he felt a bit dizzy, feeling like everything wasn't quite real.
"Xuan, if you're the male lead in a novel, then I'm the male lead's best bro," Wang Dahe said excitedly. "The male lead's best bro usually gets to live the good life thanks to the protagonist's halo."
"Xuan, my future happiness depends on you, brother."
Lin Xuan glanced at Wang Dahe. "Aren't you already living the good life?"
"True, true." Wang Dahe scratched his head, chuckling.
He had indeed gained a lot of benefits from Xuan and President Su.
If not for Xuan and President Su, he'd probably only have a few dozen bucks in his pocket right now, certainly not millions in savings.
He absolutely had to cling tight to President Su and Xuan's coattails in the future.
