Lin Xuan said, "I feel that she is decisive. For a woman to thrive and make a name for herself in an underground organization, she must be really formidable."
"Doesn't Ah Xuan think she is a murderous maniac, cruel and terrifying?" Su Hua asked again.
"I don't think so," Lin Xuan shook his head and said. "Everyone has their own way of living. She is just building her own career."
In his past life, he would have been afraid of someone like Dark Night Rose, but in this life, he was a man who had crawled out of hell.
How could he still be disgusted by slaughter?
Sometimes, killing and torturing people even gave him a sense of excitement.
He felt that he and Dark Night Rose were the same kind of people.
"Mhm."
The corners of Su Hua's lips couldn't help but curl up slightly.
Ah Xuan didn't think she was terrifying.
"Ah Xuan."
Su Hua suddenly straddled Lin Xuan's lap. Facing him, she narrowed her eyes slightly and said dangerously, "Ah Xuan was just praising another woman right in front of me, hmm?"
Lin Xuan: "..."
Hua, didn't you ask about it yourself?
"Ah Xuan, praising other women comes with a punishment," Su Hua said in a dangerous tone.
Lin Xuan: "!!!"
An excuse!
This was definitely an excuse!
Su Hua's hands began to roam restlessly over Lin Xuan's body.
"Hua," Lin Xuan grabbed Su Hua's hand, "Doctor Xiaoyao said that you need to abstain from intimacy during this period."
Su Hua's expression stiffened slightly.
How could she have forgotten about this?
Seeing Su Hua's defeated look, Lin Xuan felt great.
"Hua, so you'd better stop teasing me, otherwise, you'll be the one suffering later."
Lin Xuan couldn't help but think that perhaps he could take advantage of this abstinence period to seduce Hua a bit more.
Otherwise, once Hua recovered, he wouldn't have this kind of opportunity anymore.
Wait.
Lin Xuan thought of something and quickly dismissed the idea.
That wouldn't do.
Although Hua couldn't engage in intercourse yet, she had other methods...
Forget it.
He'd better not provoke Hua on his own initiative; he wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
Su Hua bit lightly on Lin Xuan's lip. "I'll let Ah Xuan go this time. Once I've recovered, Ah Xuan won't be able to escape."
"Hua," Lin Xuan quickly changed the subject, "Um, tonight, the members of the chip and lithography machine project team are having a gathering at the Imperial City Hotel."
Su Hua narrowed her eyes.
Jiang Yutong would definitely attend, as well as many other women in Ah Xuan's project team...
"Alright then," Su Hua suddenly chuckled. "Then Ah Xuan should go."
Lin Xuan was slightly stunned.
Hua agreed to let him go so readily?
"I just wonder which private room Ah Xuan will be dining in?" Su Hua asked again.
Lin Xuan replied, "Private room 605 at the Imperial City Hotel. It starts at 8:30."
"Mhm."
A dark glint flashed through Su Hua's eyes.
When she went to the restroom, she called Jiang Qing.
"President Su," Jiang Qing's respectful voice came from the phone.
Su Hua instructed, "Change tonight's business meeting to the Imperial City Hotel. It will start at 7:30."
"President Su," Jiang Qing frowned and said, "At 7:30, President Wang probably won't be able to make it in time."
Su Hua said, "Then keep it as usual, eight o'clock."
"Understood, President Su," Jiang Qing respectfully complied.
After hanging up the phone.
Jiang Qing's eyes were full of confusion.
President Su had never before changed the location for a contract negotiation at the last minute.
Could it be that Young Master Lin is going to the Imperial City Hotel tonight?
The more Jiang Qing thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Only Young Master Lin could make President Su change her plans on the fly.
Jiang Qing had a premonition.
It felt like there would be a good show to watch tonight.
Imperial City Hotel.
As the project team members stepped into the hotel lobby, their faces were filled with shock.
"Is this one of the top three hotels in all of Yundu? This is way too luxurious."
"The principal really spared no expense."
"I wonder just how expensive the things in here are."
They walked towards the private room.
Chen Mo, dressed in a waiter's uniform, appeared behind them.
A cold sneer curled on his lips.
Soon.
Very soon, Lin Xuan would end up in bed with Lin Jingyue, ruining his reputation, and then he would be abandoned by President Su.
"Jingyue, don't blame me for setting you up. Don't you like Lin Xuan?" Chen Mo muttered to himself. "I'm arranging for you two to sleep together to fulfill your wish."
"Once you and Lin Xuan sleep together, Su Hua will definitely go after your Lin family. By then, your family will go bankrupt, and nobody will want you."
"Jingyue, don't worry, I will marry you in the future."
Didn't Lin Jingyue look down on him?
Then he would make her become a target of public scorn, just like him. That way, she would be with him, and even bear his children...
"Hahahaha."
Whenever Chen Mo thought of the future fate of Lin Jingyue and Lin Xuan, he couldn't help but laugh wildly in his heart.
Lin Xuan frowned and glanced back.
Why did he feel like someone was staring at his back the whole time?
That gaze was full of malice.
Lin Li also received news from a private detective that Chen Mo was at the Imperial City Hotel, preparing to make a move on Lin Xuan.
Lin Li held a wine glass and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gently swirling the red wine in his hand.
"Chen Mo, oh Chen Mo, you absolutely must not disappoint me."
He had targeted Lin Xuan so many times, yet Lin Xuan always managed to come out unscathed.
He refused to believe it. Lin Xuan might be able to dodge once, but he couldn't dodge every single time!
"Lin Xuan, I'm really looking forward to the feeling of trampling you into the mud," Lin Li sneered.
He had originally stolen the affection of Jiang Shuqin, Lin Chang, and the three Lin sisters.
He thought Lin Xuan would be in pain.
Who would have expected that Lin Xuan didn't care about them at all!
The only thing he could do now to make Lin Xuan suffer was... to make Su Hua abandon him.
Tonight, he only needed to wait for the good news from Chen Mo.
Inside the private room.
All the members of the project team had arrived.
Besides dining, this private room also had a bar table, karaoke, and billiards.
A hotel waiter holding drinks was preparing to head over to room 605.
Suddenly, a sharp pain struck his abdomen.
Chen Mo walked over wearing a mask and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"
The waiter clutched his stomach and said painfully, "I don't know why, but my stomach suddenly hurts a lot."
"Hurry to the restroom," Chen Mo said.
The waiter shook his head, "I still need to deliver these drinks to private room 605."
Chen Mo said, "It really wouldn't be good to neglect the guests. How about this, I'll deliver them for you."
"Pfft—"
The waiter let out a muffled fart.
It reeked to high heaven.
Chen Mo fought back the urge to vomit and tried hard to hold his breath.
