Su Hua knew very well that Jiang Yutong most likely just saw Xuan as her cousin, and didn't have any romantic feelings for him.
However, every time she saw Jiang Yutong getting close to Xuan, she couldn't help but feel jealous. She wanted to lock Xuan up so he couldn't see any other woman besides her.
Her mentality was too morbid.
She didn't dare let Xuan know.
"Hua," Lin Xuan held Su Hua's hand and said earnestly, "You don't need to worry. In this life, I will only ever have you. I won't even look at other women."
"Mhm." Su Hua slightly curled her red lips. "I believe Xuan."
"Xuan, does the chip experimental group need you to go there often?" Su Hua asked, leaning against Lin Xuan's chest.
Lin Xuan answered truthfully, "It's fine if I don't go, but if I do, the research progress should be much faster."
"I see."
A trace of coldness flashed through Su Hua's eyes.
Since Xuan didn't have anything urgent to do, she could think of a way to keep him by her side more often, instead of having him constantly run off to Shangqing University, giving Jiang Yutong the chance to pester her Xuan.
"Hua, why are you asking this?" Lin Xuan asked in confusion.
Su Hua smiled faintly, "It's nothing, I was just asking casually."
Su Hua and Lin Xuan appeared together at the Su Corporation.
This matter quickly spread in the company's group chats.
The higher-ups knew that Su Hua must be in a very good mood right now, so they came to the CEO's office one by one to look for her.
Lin Xuan looked at Su Hua, who was listening to the executives' reports, and nodded.
He had thought that Hua saying she was too busy was just an excuse to get him to come to the Su Corporation. Now it seemed she really was quite busy.
It was just that, if Hua was so busy, why did she still run over to Shangqing University?
The Lin family.
It had been almost a month since Lin Qingwan's company went bankrupt, and she was still absent-minded all day long.
Jiang Shuqin's heart ached terribly when she saw her pale face, with heavy dark circles and bags under her eyes.
"That Lin Xuan!"
Jiang Shuqin slammed her chopsticks on the table. "He really is a menace!"
In the past, the Lin family was a wealthy family that countless people tried to curry favor with. She could buy whatever she wanted without worrying about money.
And now?
Because of Lin Xuan, Xinghui Group and Wan'er's company had both gone bankrupt.
Now their family's standard of living had plummeted!
And her eldest daughter—she used to be so high-spirited, but now she was utterly decadent.
Everything the Lin family was going through now was caused by Lin Xuan!
The master said Lin Xuan was a jinx, and he was absolutely right!
As for Li'er, the master had said that like a phoenix rising from the ashes, after experiencing these misfortunes, only good fortune would remain for Li'er.
With Li'er around, she believed their family would soon recover.
"Wan'er," Jiang Shuqin said with heartache, "the company has been closed for a while now. It's time for you to cheer up. Don't overthink it, everything will get better from here."
"Even with the company gone, you can still find another job."
Lin Qingwan forced a smile and said, "Mom, you don't need to comfort me. I know very well what I can still do."
Now that Little Xuan was targeting the Lin family, it would be impossible for her to start another business.
As for finding a job.
Her company had plagiarized Jiang Yutong's company's skincare products and ended up disfiguring many consumers. This incident was widely known—who would dare to hire her?
Moreover, Tianmu Group was now an entity that countless companies wanted to cooperate with. Even if they couldn't cooperate, they wouldn't dare offend them. Given her relationship with Little Xuan, it was impossible for them to offer her any good jobs.
Inferior companies only offered salaries of a few thousand to ten thousand yuan a month. Going to those companies would simply be a waste of time.
Little Xuan would only feel that she was useless, and she didn't want Little Xuan to look down on her.
"Big sister."
Lin Li took the opportunity to take out a document. "Take a look at this."
Lin Qingwan took the document and frowned in confusion. "This is..."
Lin Li explained, "Big sister, didn't I mention entering the medical industry to you before? This is the business proposal."
Lin Qingwan began to flip through the contents.
She was slightly surprised.
She had thought that Little Li was just talking casually at the time. She didn't expect that his proposal would be so eye-catching.
Perhaps, it really had a chance of succeeding.
Lin Qingwan felt a bit excited.
If this pharmaceutical company could develop, their family would have a chance to turn things around.
"Li'er," Jiang Shuqin said in surprise, "are you really planning to start a company?"
"Yes."
Lin Li nodded heavily. "I'm already prepared."
"But, Li'er, Lin Xuan has been targeting our Lin family. If you start a company, won't Lin Xuan come after you?"
"Mom, don't worry," Lin Li reassured her. "I'm working in the medical industry. Lin Xuan's Tianmu Group is involved in the internet sector. He won't be able to affect us at all."
And Lin Xuan's backer, Su Hua's Su Corporation, didn't dabble in the medical field either.
Neither of them could do anything about it.
"Big sister, Mom," Lin Li said, "I am one hundred percent sure this project will succeed."
Jiang Shuqin smiled and said, "Li'er is the best. Mom believes in you, you will definitely succeed."
Starting a pharmaceutical company must be the first step in Li'er's rebirth from the ashes.
"Little Li," Lin Qingwan frowned and said, "is this person mentioned in your proposal reliable?"
Lin Li nodded. "Absolutely reliable. Big sister, just rest assured."
This was a person from his dreams. In his dreams, this person was a genius who would later produce many medical achievements. These achievements would generate a highly considerable income for his company.
Especially during the epidemic half a year from now.
They would be able to develop a cure for the epidemic right away.
After the epidemic ended, their company would reach a level unattainable by other domestic pharmaceutical companies.
"Another day, I'll bring him over for you to meet," Lin Li said.
Lin Qingwan frowned.
Li'er looked so confident. Could it be that he was over ninety percent sure he could grow the company?
Jiang Shuqin said, "Li'er, if you want to start a company, Mom supports you."
"Mhm, thank you, Mom," Lin Li nodded. "Everything is ready to start the company now, except for one thing."
"What is it?" Jiang Shuqin immediately asked.
Lin Li replied, "Funds."
When it came to money, Jiang Shuqin hesitated.
Lin Li knew exactly what to say to provoke the two of them, so he immediately spoke up, "Mom, Big sister, right now my brother—no, Lin Xuan—Lin Xuan has developed Tianmu Group so well, while both of our family's companies have gone bankrupt."
"If we keep going on like this, Lin Xuan will probably think that leaving our Lin family was the right choice. He might even be laughing at us behind our backs."

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
