"Secretary Jiang, I have something important to tell you regarding Young Master Lin," the employee said over the phone.
Jiang Qing frowned.
She remembered that this employee had been assigned to Shangqing University to help Young Master Lin with the research for the chip and lithography machine project.
Why was he calling her?
"What is it about Young Master Lin? Tell me," Jiang Qing said.
The employee was just about to answer when Su Hua walked by. Frowning deeply, she asked, "Xuan?"
Jiang Qing answered respectfully, "Yes, President Su. An employee sent to Tianmu Group to research the chip project called me, saying there is something important to report regarding Young Master Lin."
Su Hua said expressionlessly, "Give me the phone."
"Yes."
Jiang Qing respectfully placed the phone into Su Hua's hand.
Su Hua took the phone and asked blankly, "What's the matter with Xuan?"
The Su Group employee answered, "It's like this, President Su. Someone specifically donated tens of millions to Shangqing University."
Su Hua frowned.
The principal of Shangqing University had reported this to her. At the time, she had said to let Xuan handle the arrangements for this matter.
The Su Group employee continued, "Her only condition for donating ninety million for the teaching building and educational equipment was to be allowed to join the chip project team to do research."
"President Su, she must be here for Young Master Lin. Basically, she only comes over when Young Master Lin is in the lab. If he isn't there, she leaves immediately."
"Also, when Young Master Lin is in the lab, she finds all sorts of excuses to pester him and strike up conversations. Everyone is saying that she likes Young Master Lin and wants to hook up with him."
He felt the same way.
Between adult men and women, it was usually about romance. Especially for someone like Jiang Yutong, who spent so much money on Lin Xuan—if someone said she didn't like Young Master Lin, he wouldn't believe it.
Su Hua gripped the phone tightly and said in a deep voice, "Alright, I understand."
After hanging up, the Su Group employee muttered, "Young Master Lin, you're on your own now. Good luck. I didn't mean to report this to President Su on purpose, but I'm really afraid that Jiang Yutong might actually use some underhanded tricks to snatch you away."
If Young Master Lin ran off to be with President Jiang, then President Su would definitely revert to her former temperamental self—the domineering female boss who constantly made them work overtime.
No, President Su would become even worse.
And they would be dragged back into their former hellish lives.
Therefore, they absolutely had to keep a close eye on Young Master Lin. They couldn't let any woman snatch him away.
Back here.
At the entrance of the Su Group's president's office.
Standing to the side, Jiang Qing had also overheard a bit of the conversation between Su Hua and the Su Group employee.
"President Su," Jiang Qing said, "Young Master Lin has always been unwilling to acknowledge the Second Miss of the Jiang family. The Second Miss probably wants to use this method to make Young Master Lin acknowledge her."
This Jiang Yutong was really going all out to make Young Master Lin acknowledge her as his sister.
Su Hua spoke expressionlessly, "Come with me for a moment."
"Yes."
Jiang Qing complied respectfully and followed Su Hua into the president's office.
"President Su, what are your orders?" Jiang Qing asked.
Su Hua said in a low voice, "Send someone to capture her."
Jiang Qing knew Su Hua was talking about Jiang Yutong.
"President Su," Jiang Qing said hesitantly. "Even though Young Master Lin hasn't acknowledged the Second Miss of the Jiang family yet, she is still his biological older cousin. If Young Master Lin finds out..."
Su Hua's eyes darkened.
If she hadn't been afraid of Xuan finding out, she would have dealt with her long ago.
"Just do it," Su Hua said.
"Yes."
Jiang Qing could only agree.
Su Hua then instructed, "Just capture her, give her a good scare, and lock her up for the night. You don't need to do anything else."
If anything serious were to happen to Jiang Yutong, Xuan would definitely investigate it to the bitter end.
Xuan was too capable. As long as she left even the slightest clue, Xuan would likely find out.
She couldn't take that risk.
"Understood, President Su," Jiang Qing respectfully agreed, a look of realization appearing on her face.
When President Su first gave the order, she was still wondering: wasn't President Su afraid that Young Master Lin would find out if she went after Jiang Yutong?
So it turned out that President Su didn't dare to get real; she just wanted to scare her.
"Do it cleanly. Don't let the Jiang family or Xuan trace it back to us," Su Hua urged.
"President Su, you can rest assured, we will definitely be careful," Jiang Yutong said.
"Also, once Jiang Yutong is captured, contact me immediately," Su Hua ordered.
"President Su, are you going to deal with Jiang Yutong personally?" Jiang Qing asked curiously.
"No."
Su Hua narrowed her eyes.
Once Jiang Yutong was captured, she was going to lure Xuan into bed. That way, Xuan wouldn't know about Jiang Yutong being captured, much less send people to look for her.
Had she guessed wrong?
Jiang Yutong's face was full of confusion.
Since President Su had no intention of scaring Jiang Yutong personally, why did President Su want to be informed immediately?
Su Hua said expressionlessly, "That's all for now. You can head out."
"Yes." Jiang Qing retreated from the office.
Su Hua recalled the phone call the Su Group employee had made to Jiang Qing.
She pursed her lips, a storm brewing in her eyes.
She had thought Jiang Yutong was merely sending things to the Tianmu Group. She hadn't expected her to chase him all the way to the university.
Very well then.
Su Hua unlocked her phone and logged into the university's forum.
On the forum, there was a pile of threads discussing the matter between Jiang Yutong and Lin Xuan.
[I asked a friend in the chip project team, and she said that when Lin Xuan is with the team, Jiang Yutong constantly pesters him with all sorts of questions. She absolutely, definitely likes Lin Xuan. She's pursuing him right now.]
[I'm really curious if Jiang Yutong knows that Lin Xuan is already with President Su.]
[Of course she knows. With so many people in the university, someone would definitely tell her. Besides, when you like someone, you definitely try everything to learn all about them. So Jiang Yutong must have investigated whether Lin Xuan has a girlfriend at the university.]
[Jiang Yutong knows Lin Xuan has a girlfriend, yet she's still pursuing him. Doesn't that mean she wants to be the other woman?]
Jiang Yutong was, after all, the Second Miss of the Jiang family.
The Jiang family's wealth ranked in the top ten in the Xia Country, and their military and political influence was absurdly strong. With Jiang Yutong's status, for her to stoop to being the other woman was truly unimaginable.

Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

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."
