"No wonder," Nanny Zhao nodded.
No wonder the young lady seemed to be in such a bad mood; it turned out it was because Old Master Su was pestering Young Master Lin.
Young Master Lin was treated like the darling of the Su family.
"Good, good, this is truly wonderful." Tears shimmered in Nanny Zhao's eyes.
The more easily the young lady got jealous, the more it showed how much she cared about Young Master Lin.
After being abused by the Lin family for so many years, Young Master Lin's suffering had finally come to an end, and the good times had begun.
At the dining table.
Lin Xuan occasionally picked up food for Old Master Su with his chopsticks.
Snap.
The chopsticks in Su Hua's hands were snapped clean in half by her sheer grip.
"Hua, what's wrong?" Lin Xuan turned his head and looked at Su Hua in confusion.
Su Hua's lips twitched slightly. "It's nothing. These chopsticks are just a bit brittle, so they broke."
"Oh."
Lin Xuan nodded, not suspecting a thing.
How could Old Master Su not know why the chopsticks broke? The amusement in his eyes deepened.
Hua'er was truly living more and more like a normal person now.
Excellent, excellent, just wonderful.
After dinner.
Lin Xuan spoke up, "Grandpa Su, I'll have someone prepare a room for you."
"No need."
Old Master Su shook his head and said, "I still need to head back to the old estate later."
Lin Xuan furrowed his brows tightly. "Grandpa Su, didn't you say you were going to stay here for a while?"
"I won't be staying." Old Master Su shook his head. "I was just joking when I said I'd stay at Night Manor for a while. How could Night Manor be as comfortable as the old estate?"
The look in Su Hua's eyes toward Old Master Su became slightly less hostile.
"Little Xuan, you and Hua'er just get along well and work hard on making a baby. As for your grandpa, I'll be heading back now."
If he actually stayed here for a period of time, this child Hua'er would probably sever all ties with him.
Just now at the dining table, when Little Xuan was serving him food, Hua'er had been glaring at him with a chilling gaze the entire time.
Old Master Su left.
Lin Xuan was immediately pounced upon by Su Hua.
"Ah Xuan, do you know what you did wrong just now?" Su Hua straddled Lin Xuan's lap face-to-face, revealing her long, dazzlingly white legs.
She toyed with the buttons on Lin Xuan's shirt.
Lin Xuan racked his brains trying to think.
What had he done wrong just now?
After thinking for a long time, Lin Xuan still couldn't figure it out.
"From now on, no matter who comes over, Ah Xuan is not allowed to ignore me, understand?" Su Hua said.
"Okay."
Lin Xuan nodded without hesitation.
He thought about it. Just now, when Grandpa Su was here, he had been so focused on talking to him that he had indeed neglected Hua a little.
But... was Hua jealous?
Jealous of her own grandfather?
Lin Xuan looked at Su Hua suspiciously.
"Ah Xuan did something wrong, so he has to be punished."
Su Hua's red lips leaned in close to Lin Xuan's ear. "Then we'll add another day."
"Ah Xuan, altogether, that makes eighteen days."
Lin Xuan's temples throbbed violently.
Eighteen days, that was going to kill him.
"Make sure you prepare yourself well."
Su Hua curled her lips.
Just two more days. In two days, she would finally be able to devour Ah Xuan.
"Hua."
Lin Xuan asked weakly, "For future rewards, could we reduce the number of days?"
"No, we can't."
Su Hua smirked and said, "Does Ah Xuan not want to do that kind of thing with me?"
Without waiting for Lin Xuan to answer, Su Hua continued, "People online say that if a man doesn't want to be intimate with his girlfriend, it's mainly for two reasons. One is that he has another woman outside, and the second is that he's physically incapable. I wonder which one it is for Ah Xuan?"
Lin Xuan: "..."
Having another woman outside was definitely impossible.
He was mostly worried that after so many days, his kidneys would just pack up and run away...
But, in front of the woman he loved, how could he ever admit that he was incapable?
"No, no, how could I not want to be intimate with you, Hua? It's mainly because I'm worried that after so many days of exercise, your body won't be able to take it, Hua." Lin Xuan casually made up an excuse.
Su Hua smirked and said, "Ah Xuan doesn't need to worry. My body is in great shape. I can totally go for seven days and seven nights with Ah Xuan."
Lin Xuan: "..."
Seven days and seven nights...
Honestly, with Hua's stamina, she could probably actually pull it off.
No way.
He needed to rest and recuperate for a while longer.
The day after tomorrow, when he examined Hua under his identity as Doctor Xiaoyao, he would just tell her that she needed to abstain from intimacy for a bit longer.
The next day.
Lin Xuan didn't dare stay around Su Hua anymore; he ran off to the laboratory again.
He didn't do any experiments. Instead, he sat in a chair with his legs crossed, playing on his phone.
Lin Xuan let out a sigh of relief.
Now that he had ordered people to block Jiang Yutong's gifts outside the school, and she herself hadn't come to campus, life without her pestering him was truly blissful.
Who would have expected it.
In the afternoon, Jiang Yutong popped up again.
"Classmate Lin Xuan," Jiang Yutong greeted him with a beaming smile. "Good afternoon, it's been a while."
When it came to pestering Lin Xuan, Jiang Yutong grew more determined with every setback.
Normally, she would have given up long ago.
But this was her actual biological cousin, and he perfectly matched her ideal image of a younger brother.
No matter what, she had to acknowledge their relationship.
The temples on Lin Xuan's forehead throbbed wildly. "Classmate Jiang Yutong."
He practically said this through gritted teeth.
"Didn't you have matters to attend to at your company? How do you have time to participate in the chip lithography machine research project?"
Jiang Yutong smiled and said, "There was a slight issue at the company, but I asked my sister for help, so the company's matters were resolved very quickly."
It probably would have taken her at least a week to resolve it herself.
A week was simply too long.
She couldn't give Little Xuan a chance to catch his breath, so she just had her sister help sort it out.
Lin Xuan rubbed the space between his eyebrows.
How could he have forgotten that Jiang Yutong had the Jiang family as her backing?
"Classmate Lin Xuan, even though I was dealing with company matters these past few days, whenever I had free time, I was studying the project. I found a lot more problems. Classmate Lin Xuan, please help me solve them."
Lin Xuan once again started solving problems for Jiang Yutong.
He couldn't help but think.
It seemed like for the time being, he should just obediently stay at Night Manor. He couldn't let Jiang Yutong find him.
After Lin Xuan solved the problems for Jiang Yutong, he found an excuse and went back.
He had thought that after Jiang Yutong persisted for a while and saw no results, she would give up. He never expected that after so much time had passed, she would still be enjoying it tirelessly.
Lin Xuan had a comfortable sleep at Night Manor.
Early the next morning.
He found another excuse to go out.
"Hua, there's something I need to handle at my company, so I'll be leaving now. Once I finish resolving it, I'll come right back," Lin Xuan said.
Su Hua was wearing a white qipao.
The well-tailored qipao perfectly accentuated her graceful figure.
Su Hua had a body that would make all the men in the world flock to her.
