Meanwhile.
After leaving the Su Group, Lin Xuan took Su Hua to a roadside restaurant for a meal.
"Hua."
Lin Xuan said, "The beef rice noodles here are really good. I found this place by chance, you should try some too."
"Mhm," Su Hua nodded.
They ate on the second floor. It was very quiet; besides the two of them, there was hardly anyone else around.
The owner's daughter placed two bowls of beef rice noodles in front of Lin Xuan and Su Hua.
"Please enjoy your meal."
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly noticed Lin Xuan.
Her face instantly lit up with excitement.
"Ahhhhh!"
"Are you Lin Xuan?"
"Lin Xuan oppa, I'm a huge fan of yours!"
He was seriously too handsome!
He looked even better in person than in the videos and photos circulating online!
Lin Xuan's good looks had completely captured her heart.
"Lin Xuan oppa, do you know that I really, really like you?" the owner's daughter said, her face flushed and her heart racing.
Su Hua's gaze turned icy.
She pursed her lips.
It seemed that no matter where Xuan went, there would always be plenty of young girls fawning over him.
A surge of jealousy bubbled up in Su Hua's heart.
The owner's daughter suddenly felt an unnatural chill wash over her.
"Achoo!" She let out a sneeze.
However, her sheer adoration for Lin Xuan made her completely ignore the sudden drop in temperature.
Blushing, she continued excitedly, "Lin Xuan oppa, could I get your autograph, please?"
Without waiting for Lin Xuan to reply, she babbled on, "Wait right here! I'm going to grab a pen and a notebook. I'll be right back, wait for me!"
The owner's daughter hurried away.
Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief.
She was so frantic that he couldn't even get a word in edgewise.
Wait a minute.
Hua was incredibly possessive and prone to jealousy...
Lin Xuan looked nervously at Su Hua, only to find her resting her chin on her right hand, gazing at him with a beaming smile.
Yet, Lin Xuan couldn't shake the feeling that there were daggers hidden behind that smile...
"Hua..."
Lin Xuan nervously tried to explain, but Su Hua stood up from her seat.
She walked straight over to him and, with practiced ease, sat sideways across his lap.
The posture was incredibly intimate.
The woman, dressed in a purple qipao, wrapped her arms around Lin Xuan's neck.
She straightened her back while Lin Xuan leaned forward, bringing her chest perfectly level with the tip of his nose.
"Xuan."
"Feed me today, just like you used to. Okay?" Su Hua leaned in, her sweet breath tickling his ear.
"Okay." Lin Xuan's Adam's apple bobbed.
He had no choice but to agree at a time like this.
If he refused, Hua would easily start overthinking things.
"Xuan, before we eat, can I have a kiss?" Su Hua's beautiful eyes stared intently at Lin Xuan's lips.
Lin Xuan: "..."
Could he even refuse?
Although there was hardly anyone on the second floor right now, there was no telling if someone might come up at any moment.
"Xuan is hesitating. Do you not want me to kiss you? Are you afraid of someone seeing us?" Su Hua's voice carried a hint of danger.
Lin Xuan understood immediately—Hua was jealous.
"No, I'm not," Lin Xuan quickly shook his head and replied. "We're a couple, so it's perfectly normal for us to be intimate. If someone sees us, then so be it."
"Hua, I should be the one kissing you."
Lin Xuan originally only intended to give Su Hua a quick, gentle peck on the lips.
But as soon as he leaned in, the little woman clung to him, refusing to let him pull away.
Su Hua kept her arms wrapped tightly around Lin Xuan's neck, kissing him wildly and passionately.
It was quiet all around, the only sound being the intimate noise of their lips and teeth meeting.
As soon as the owner's daughter came upstairs with a notebook and pen, she walked right into the scene of Su Hua and Lin Xuan making out.
The owner's daughter: "..."
Because of her excitement earlier, she hadn't even noticed the woman sitting across from her idol.
It was over.
She was heartbroken.
She had thought the online rumors about Lin Xuan having a girlfriend were fake, especially since no photos of her had ever surfaced.
Nor were there any pictures of the two of them together.
She never expected the rumors to actually be true...
Not daring to interrupt them, the owner's daughter could only stand off to the side and wait.
She even stopped other customers who were trying to go up to the second floor for their noodles.
The owner's daughter figured their kiss wouldn't last that long.
However, two minutes, five minutes, and then ten minutes went by.
The two of them were still making out.
She couldn't help but wonder: kissing for that long, weren't they running out of breath?
Watching the two of them made her face flush and her heart race.
Su Hua's hands slipped under Lin Xuan's clothes, wandering mischievously.
If they weren't out in public, she probably would have already dragged Lin Xuan into doing something much more intimate.
Another seven minutes passed.
Finally, the owner's daughter breathed a sigh of relief.
They had finally stopped.
Even so, Su Hua still didn't get off Lin Xuan's lap.
Blushing and pretending she hadn't seen a thing, the owner's daughter walked up to Lin Xuan with her notebook and pen. "Lin Xuan, could you please sign this for me?"
"Sure."
Lin Xuan nodded.
He took the pen and quickly signed his name in the notebook.
The owner's daughter discreetly studied Su Hua.
Because of the kiss, Su Hua's eyes were still glistening with a watery haze, and her cheeks were slightly flushed. Right now, she looked exactly like a soul-stealing enchantress.
A look of absolute awe washed over the owner's daughter's face.
This woman was just way too beautiful. It was no wonder her idol had fallen for her.
It made perfect sense. With her idol being so outstanding, only a woman like this was worthy of his affection.
"Here you go."
Lin Xuan handed the notebook back to the owner's daughter.
"Thank you, Lin Xuan."
She clutched the notebook to her chest as if it were a precious treasure.
"Mr. Lin, and Miss, I hope you enjoy your meal. Also, I wish you both a lifetime of happiness together, growing old and staying just as perfectly in love as you are now."
A genuine smile finally appeared on Su Hua's face. "Thank you."
The owner's daughter didn't disturb the couple any further and went back to work.
Halfway down the stairs, she remembered something and muttered, "How strange."
While she was on the second floor, she had felt freezing cold the entire time. But the moment she offered her blessing, the chill had inexplicably vanished.
The second floor gradually began to fill with more people.
Everyone's eyes invariably fell upon Lin Xuan and Su Hua.
Truth be told, none of them had ever seen such a stunningly attractive and well-matched couple.
Being stared at by so many people made Lin Xuan feel incredibly restless.
After he finished feeding Su Hua her bowl of beef rice noodles, he quickly scarfed down his own.
"Hua, let's head back," Lin Xuan said.
"There's no rush," Su Hua replied. "Xuan, come with me to a place first."
"Where to?" Lin Xuan asked, puzzled.
Su Hua offered a faint smile. "To the mall."
"Alright."
They headed to the nearest high-end shopping mall. The first place they walked into was a luxury watch boutique.
"Pack up this entire row," Su Hua instructed.
The sales associate asked, unsure if she had heard correctly, "Miss, do you want all of these?"
"Yes, all of them," Su Hua nodded.
The sales associate was thrilled.
A VIP client!
Her commission for this month was definitely going to break records!
"Hua, I already have watches. I don't need this many," Lin Xuan said.
Su Hua pursed her lips and said, "If we buy a few more, you can rotate them. Remember, Xuan, you have to wear each one for at least ten days."
That way, Xuan wouldn't have any time to wear the watch Jiang Yutong had given him.
Thank you to Wendu Ya for the Burst Update and Flowers gift!
And thank you to Little Panda 06 and the rest of you darlings for the gifts.
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
