"Xuan." Su Hua dangerously narrowed her eyes. Just as she was about to say something.
Lin Xuan hurriedly interrupted to explain, "Hua, don't misunderstand. Those things in the back seat weren't given to me by some woman... well, no, they were given by a woman, but not a woman who likes me."
"I had just left the company and was about to go look for you when a lot of kids stopped me and forced these things on me. They were all from Jiang Yutong. I didn't plan on keeping them; I was actually going to send someone to return them to her after going back."
Su Hua pursed her lips.
This Jiang Yutong, giving so many gifts to her Xuan, this wasn't acting like a sister to a younger brother at all...
Su Hua clenched her fists.
Daring to fight her for Xuan, she deserved to die...
"Hua."
Lin Xuan said, "Don't overthink it. Jiang Yutong gave me all these things mainly because she has always wanted to acknowledge me as her family."
"Then what are Xuan's thoughts?" Su Hua asked, pursing her lips.
She really didn't like Xuan having so many relatives.
Once Xuan acknowledged them, they would occupy a place in Xuan's heart.
Especially since those two from the Jiang family were both daughters.
She couldn't stand Xuan having too much contact with other women, even if they were blood-related cousins...
Lin Xuan shook his head. "I don't have that thought yet. Let's talk about this later."
Su Hua could sense that Lin Xuan was already somewhat wavering.
However, she had no way to stop him...
"Xuan."
Su Hua pulled Lin Xuan's collar toward her.
Her other hand rested on the spot over Lin Xuan's heart.
"Xuan, you must remember, your heart belongs entirely to me."
Lin Xuan nodded. "Yes, it all belongs to you."
Su Hua's eyes darkened.
Xuan really was a little liar.
Saying that his heart belonged to her, yet clearly his heart could hold so many people.
Wang Dahe, the orphanage director, and later there would be Jiang Yutong, Jiang Manting, and also Old Jiang...
Lin Xuan was confused.
He had clearly promised that his entire heart belonged to Hua, so why did the aura around Hua still feel so chillingly cold...
"Xuan."
Su Hua bit Lin Xuan's lips punitively. "Remember your words."
"If Xuan dares to lie, don't blame me for punishing Xuan."
"Hiss..."
Lin Xuan couldn't help but hiss in pain.
Why did Hua like biting his lips so much?
"These things in the back seat of your car, I will send someone to return them to the Jiang family right now," Su Hua said.
A cold gleam flashed in her eyes.
She would have someone thoroughly wash this car inside and out.
She didn't like Xuan's car being tainted by another woman's scent.
"Alright, I'll listen to Hua," Lin Xuan nodded.
At this time, he had to go along with whatever Hua wanted.
Moreover, Hua sending someone to return all these things also saved him some work.
Su Hua took out her phone and made a call.
"Secretary Jiang, do something for me."
"Boss Su, please speak," Jiang Qing said respectfully.
Su Hua replied, "Take a few people to the company's front parking lot immediately and return the things in Xuan's car to the Jiang family."
"Understood."
Jiang Qing respectfully agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Qing let out a breath.
Fortunately, she was right near the company and hadn't gone far.
Sigh.
As a secretary, she often had to help Boss Su handle private matters; she felt that Boss Su really ought to give her a raise.
Jiang Qing called two employees over.
They arrived in front of Su Hua's car.
Seeing the things in the car, Jiang Qing slightly widened her eyes.
This, this, this... President Jiang actually gave Young Master Lin so many things...
Jiang Qing suddenly remembered what Su Hua had said before about how a female cousin and a male cousin could also potentially end up together. She began to silently light a candle for Jiang Yutong in her heart.
She had a feeling that Boss Su wouldn't let this go easily; she would absolutely, definitely do something to Jiang Yutong.
Jiang Qing gathered her thoughts and said respectfully, "Boss Su, I will help you take the things away right now."
Jiang Qing was about to personally lend a hand and take some of the things.
"Wait," Su Hua stopped her coldly.
"Boss Su, what are your orders?" Jiang Qing asked.
"Let the two of them move it. You don't need to," Su Hua said.
"Understood."
Jiang Qing took a few steps back.
The two employees of the Su Group quickly removed those things from the car.
Su Hua said expressionlessly, "After delivering these to the Jiang family, tell Jiang Yutong that Xuan doesn't need these things she gave him. Whatever Xuan needs, I, his girlfriend, will give him."
"Understood."
Hearing Su Hua's words, Jiang Qing was even more certain that Su Hua was jealous.
Su Hua and Lin Xuan's car drove away from the Su Group.
The two employees asked in confusion, "Secretary Jiang, have you made Boss Su angry recently? Why do I always feel like Boss Su's attitude toward you is a bit weird?"
Jiang Qing suddenly remembered that Boss Su hadn't let her get things from the car, and also that novel about a female CEO.
Could it be... that Boss Su just recalled the contents of that novel, thought she was coveting Young Master Lin, and thus stopped her from getting things from the car...
The more Jiang Qing thought about it, the more she felt it was possible.
"I'm doomed." Despair showed in Jiang Qing's eyes.
The two employees asked curiously, "Secretary Jiang, what is doomed?"
"Nothing." Jiang Qing took a deep breath and said, "I just feel that I need to find a boyfriend quickly. No, not just find a boyfriend, I also need to get a marriage certificate and marry him right away."
She would also occasionally bring him to wander in front of Boss Su, to make Boss Su think they were deeply in love.
Secretary Jiang added, "I have a little something to handle at the company right now. Once I'm done, I'll send these things back. Just move them into my car."
The two employees looked at each other in dismay.
Looking at Jiang Qing's back, they couldn't help but start discussing.
"What's going on? Is Secretary Jiang, this iron tree that hasn't bloomed in ten thousand years, finally going to blossom?"
As the favorite right-hand woman in front of Boss Su, some people who wanted to suck up to Boss Su by currying favor with Secretary Jiang had sent her quite a few men.
Secretary Jiang hadn't taken a fancy to a single one of them.
Over the years, they hadn't seen Secretary Jiang with any man either.
This time, she actually wanted to get married. This was truly unimaginable.
"Secretary Jiang is just like Boss Su; neither of them used to get close to men. Look at Boss Su now. Once she met a man she liked, doesn't she wish she could stick to Young Master Lin every single day? In front of Young Master Lin, she even gives off the vibe of a delicate, loving wife."
"I'm guessing that this time, Secretary Jiang, just like Boss Su, has also met a man she likes, so she wants to get married quickly."
"Makes sense."
The other employee nodded.
After Jiang Qing finished her work, she drove to the Jiang family's residence.
In front of the Jiang family villa.
Jiang Qing nodded and said, "I am Jiang Qing. I am acquainted with Young Master Lin, and I have a matter to discuss with the Second Miss of the Jiang family."
