Lao Han smiled and said, "Just relax. Nothing will go wrong. Our boss is personally handling things today. Isn't it perfectly normal for everything to go smoothly?"
Old Chen glanced at him.
It was exactly because the boss was handling it personally that he felt even more uneasy.
Look at the boss—does he look like a smart guy?
If the boss hadn't saved that VIP earlier and gained her protection, Su Hua would have wiped them out ages ago. They wouldn't even be here right now.
Su Hua appeared in the Golden Triangle.
"Where is he now?" Su Hua asked expressionlessly.
A member of the Night Rose gang answered respectfully, "Boss, Su Sheng just arrived in the Golden Triangle two hours ago."
"Mm." A cold glint flashed in Su Hua's eyes. "It's about time we dealt with him."
Anyone who dared to target her Xuan was courting death...
"Is everything ready?" Su Hua asked.
"Ready," the subordinate replied.
Su Hua picked up her phone and called Lin Xuan, but he didn't answer.
Su Hua frowned, an inexplicable sense of panic welling up in her heart.
She then called Butler Wang instead.
Looking at the caller ID showing the young miss on his phone, Butler Wang took a deep breath.
He had to lie for Young Master Lin.
"Miss," Butler Wang tried his best to keep his voice calm. "May I ask why you are calling?"
Worry was evident on Su Hua's face. "Where is Xuan? Is he at home?"
Butler Wang replied, "Young Master Lin went to the company today. Not long after he came back and had dinner, he said he was tired. After sitting in the living room for an hour, he went upstairs. I assume Young Master Lin is resting in his room now."
Su Hua had always trusted Butler Wang.
Hearing his words, she breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Xuan was at home, everything was fine.
Butler Wang asked respectfully, "Miss, did you need Young Master Lin for something? Should I go wake Young Master Lin up?"
"No need, let him sleep," Su Hua said.
Thinking of something, the corners of her lips curled up slightly.
Most likely, Xuan remembered what she had said—that she wouldn't let him off the hook once she returned from her business trip.
So Xuan was taking this opportunity to get a good rest, lest he be unable to handle her later.
"Boss," the subordinate asked curiously. "What are you thinking about? Why do you look so happy?"
"Nothing." Su Hua's eyes were filled with joy. "Just thinking about some things between me and my boyfriend."
The subordinate sighed in admiration, "Boss, you and your husband have such a great relationship."
Husband...
Hearing this title, Su Hua couldn't stop the smile from spreading across her lips.
Back at the Night Manor.
Butler Wang clasped his hands together and prayed, "Young Master Jiang, you must come back early."
If the miss called a few more times, she would definitely notice something was wrong.
Meanwhile.
Not long after Su Hua hung up the phone.
Her phone rang.
Su Hua picked it up, took a look, and frowned deeply.
It was an unknown number.
Su Hua answered the call.
"Su Hua, long time no see." Su Sheng's triumphant voice came through the phone.
A strange feeling arose in Su Hua's heart.
In the past, Su Sheng never took the initiative to contact her; he only ever played petty tricks behind her back.
Why would he proactively call her this time?
"Speak," Su Hua asked in an icy tone. "What do you want from me?"
"Sister," Su Sheng said with a laugh. "I'm your cousin. Can't I call just to catch up? Why assume I want something the moment you open your mouth?"
Su Hua's expression darkened.
"In that case, we have nothing to talk about."
Su Hua prepared to hang up.
"Wait, wait, wait." Su Sheng stopped her. "Since you've put it that way, cousin, I'll tell you the truth."
"What I want to talk to you about is Lin Xuan."
Su Hua's fingers tightened their grip on the phone.
Su Sheng continued to laugh and said, "Cousin, I never expected that someone as cold-hearted as you would actually fall in love one day."
"And you've been dating for over two years now. You've really opened my eyes."
Su Hua's voice was freezing cold. "What exactly do you want to do?"
"Su Hua, you should know very well that having someone you love and care about gives you a weakness. I didn't expect you to have a weakness too." Su Sheng's voice was full of smugness.
He had thought he would never be able to do anything about Su Hua for the rest of his life.
But then Lin Xuan popped up.
Su Hua was someone who didn't even care about her own biological grandfather and parents, yet she had ultimately fallen for a man.
This was truly a massive and pleasant surprise for him.
Jiang Qing was standing beside Su Hua and heard their conversation loud and clear.
Her brows were tightly furrowed.
This was simply too strange.
Su Sheng's tone sounded like he was showing off. But showing off what?
Could it be...
A possibility emerged in Jiang Qing's mind.
Was Young Master Lin captured by Su Sheng?
However, Young Master Lin was the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang and possessed excellent combat skills. Plus, Boss Su had sent so many people to protect him. How could he possibly be captured?
"Su Hua, did you realize Lin Xuan was missing a long time ago? You must be going crazy looking for him now." Su Sheng took a drag of his cigarette.
It felt so good.
He blew out a puff of smoke.
Smoking at a time like this was just pure bliss!
But when Su Hua came over and he got to see her being tortured, lighting a cigarette then would be the true feeling of paradise.
Su Hua said coldly, "You don't need to lie to me. My Xuan is at home."
How could he be missing?
"Hahahaha." Su Sheng burst into laughter. "Su Hua, it seems you really don't know. I've captured Lin Xuan, and he's currently locked up by me. I'll send you a message."
"Once you see it, you'll know whether I'm telling the truth or not."
Su Hua suddenly remembered that she had called Xuan today, but he hadn't answered. Only Butler Wang had told her that Xuan was already resting.
Could it be... Su Sheng wasn't lying?
He had really, truly captured Xuan.
For a moment, an immense sense of panic surged within Su Hua's heart.
Thump, thump, thump—Su Hua's heart pounded wildly.
Beep!
A message popped up on Su Hua's phone.
With trembling hands, Su Hua opened the message.
Su Sheng had sent her two photos of Lin Xuan bound hand and foot on a plane.
Seeing these two photos, Su Hua's pupils shrank drastically.
It was true.
Xuan had fallen into his hands.
"Su Hua, you saw the photos I sent you, right? Now do you believe me?" Su Sheng said smugly.
Su Hua gritted her teeth and enunciated every word clearly, "What exactly do you want to do?"
Su Sheng let out a laugh and said, "Su Hua, you know that this kid Lin Xuan and I have no grudges against each other. I wouldn't expend so much manpower and resources to capture him just for the sake of dealing with him."
"Do you know that fifty or sixty of my brothers died or got injured just to catch him?"
"Naturally, I went through all this effort to capture him because my real target is you."
Su Hua's face turned pale.
In the end, she had implicated Xuan.
She should have dealt with Su Sheng earlier. That way, Xuan wouldn't have been put in danger.
