Coming to Show Off

"You two, th-th-this..."

Jiang Manting's eyes widened in sheer shock as she watched the intimate interaction between Su Hua and Lin Xuan.

President Su's boyfriend was Little Xuan!

Jiang Manting found the scene unfolding before her utterly unbelievable.

President Su had fallen for her younger brother...

But on second thought, their being together wasn't so hard to understand.

Both Su Hua and Little Xuan were outstanding individuals. Aside from each other, she really couldn't think of anyone else worthy of them.

Furthermore, she finally understood why Old Mr. Su had such a great relationship with Little Xuan.

She hadn't had much interaction with Su Hua before, but since Su Hua was Little Xuan's girlfriend, she absolutely had to get on her good side.

"Miss Su," Jiang Manting stepped forward and said. "Hello, I am Little Xuan's blood-related older cousin, though we haven't officially acknowledged each other yet."

"Mhm," Su Hua replied casually, completely ignoring Jiang Manting after that.

Acting as if no one else was there, she pushed Lin Xuan against a wall.

"Xuan, I want to kiss you."

Lin Xuan glanced around.

"Hua, there are a lot of people here. Let's wait until we get back."

Su Hua stood on her tiptoes and chuckled softly in Lin Xuan's ear. "After so many times, Xuan is still so shy."

"Since Xuan is shy, I'll just have to force myself on you. If anyone talks, they'll be talking about me."

With that, Su Hua captured Lin Xuan's lips.

Lin Xuan was speechless.

What kind of quirk did Hua have, actually liking to get intimate with him in front of outsiders...

The secretary coughed and explained, "President Jiang, our boss and his girlfriend are deeply in love. They've always interacted like this."

Jiang Manting suddenly recalled asking Tongtong earlier why she had suddenly wanted to start dating.

She had said she was tired of being force-fed public displays of affection by Little Xuan and his girlfriend.

Their PDA really was enough to choke someone to death...

If she watched them interact a few more times, even she might get the urge to find a boyfriend.

Also, seeing that Little Xuan had such an excellent girlfriend like President Su, she should be happy for him. Yet, she felt an uncomfortable twinge in her heart.

Her own biological brother hadn't even been officially welcomed back to the family yet, and he was already being spirited away by another woman.

"Secretary Chen, the cooperation has been finalized, so it's time for me to head back," Jiang Manting said.

If she stayed any longer, she really would choke on their affection.

"Alright, President Jiang. I'll see you out."

The secretary escorted Jiang Manting away.

Five minutes later, Su Hua finally parted from Lin Xuan's lips.

"Xuan, why did the eldest lady of the Jiang family come looking for you?" Su Hua asked, her soft arms wrapped around Lin Xuan's neck.

Lin Xuan answered truthfully, "She wants me to return to the Jiang family."

Su Hua's eyes darkened.

It was exactly as she had suspected.

The Jiang family was really going to great lengths to bring Xuan back.

"And what does Xuan think about that?" Su Hua asked.

Lin Xuan shook his head. "I don't know either. I'll just take it one step at a time for now."

Su Hua pursed her lips.

Xuan was already wavering... but she couldn't stop it.

"I heard Xuan received quite a few gifts today," Su Hua said, toying with the buttons on Lin Xuan's shirt, her tone sounding somewhat nonchalant.

"Gifts? What gifts?" Lin Xuan didn't react immediately, looking a bit bewildered.

"I heard it from your company's employees," Su Hua said. "Someone gave you over twenty birthday presents, and even a shower of flower petals."

Lin Xuan snapped back to reality.

So Hua was talking about Jiang Yutong.

Jiang Yutong was his cousin, not some romantic interest, so it wasn't a big deal.

Lin Xuan replied very calmly, "Hua, those were from Jiang Yutong. She probably just wants to keep closing the distance between us."

"However, I didn't accept them."

"Mhm," Su Hua nodded, imperceptibly clenching her fists.

Back when she had her captured, she shouldn't have just scared her. Otherwise, how would Jiang Yutong still have the chance to keep pestering Xuan?

Now that Jiang Yutong had her guard up, it would be difficult to make another move against her.

"Hua, you must be hungry. Let me take you out to eat," Lin Xuan said.

"Okay."

Lin Xuan took Su Hua to a restaurant near the company for a meal.

Su Hua went to the restroom.

Lin Li also walked into the restaurant.

Seeing Lin Xuan, his hands suddenly clenched into fists.

Lin Xuan!

The person he hated most in his entire life!

If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have become a eunuch, and the Lin family certainly wouldn't have gone bankrupt!

Heh.

Did Lin Xuan really think he could trample him underfoot for the rest of his life?

His medical company was already getting on the right track.

It wouldn't be long before their company became the top giant in the medical industry.

Lin Xuan's company wasn't involved in the medical industry at all. Even if Lin Xuan wanted to suppress him, he couldn't. Even if Lin Xuan brought out Su Hua, there was absolutely nothing he could do to him.

Lin Li couldn't resist running up to Lin Xuan to show off.

"Lin Xuan," Lin Li said as he stopped in front of him.

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.

Wasn't this Lin Li?

His complexion had recovered quite a bit recently.

Then again, considering all the torment Lin Li had been through without going crazy, he really was like an unkillable cockroach.

"My good little brother, it's really been a long time," Lin Xuan said, raising an eyebrow.

He had actually grown a bit unaccustomed to Lin Li not jumping around in front of him lately.

"Lin Xuan, you ruined the Xinghui Group and destroyed Oldest Sister's company. Are you feeling pretty smug?" Lin Li asked.

Lin Xuan nodded. "It does feel pretty good, actually."

"Seeing you all down and out naturally makes me happy."

Lin Li sneered. "Lin Xuan, you definitely wanted to see us destitute. But you didn't expect that we wouldn't fall into your trap, did you? We have plenty of savings on hand, enough to make us rich. I will find an industry where even you can't touch me to develop my company."

"When that time comes, you'll just have to watch helplessly as my company grows."

Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.

It seemed Lin Li was ready to start a business.

He would have to look into exactly what he was planning to do.

"Alright then, I wish you success," Lin Xuan smiled faintly.

Lin Li gritted his teeth.

What he hated most was Lin Xuan's breezy, nonchalant attitude.

No matter what he did or how proud he felt, in front of Lin Xuan, he always felt like a jumping clown.

"Heh—" Lin Li continued to sneer, "Lin Xuan, let me tell you, you won't be smug for much longer. You'd better cherish the time you have now."

Lin Xuan remained very calm.

Not to mention that Lin Li couldn't possibly bring him down, even if he did, Lin Xuan still had his spatial cheat code.

Relying on his spatial dimension, he could easily stage a comeback anyway.

"Is that so?" Lin Xuan picked up a cup of tea and took a slow sip. "Then I'll wait and see just exactly how you plan to bring me down."
