General Su Mixes Personal and Public Matters

Lin Xuan had originally planned to expose everything through the internet.

Since Lin Li had invited him to attend his birthday party, Lin Xuan decided to use this opportunity to his advantage, causing Lin Li, as well as the entire Lin family, to lose face in front of the high society guests at the party.

Lin Li and Qin Ruoyao's relationship was far beyond the scope of a simple boyfriend-girlfriend connection.

Lin Li already had a fiancée.

In his previous life, this fiancée had done a lot to help the Lin family, and Lin Xuan wondered if, after the scandal of Lin Li and Qin Ruoyao was exposed, the woman would still agree to marry Lin Li.

Lin Xuan smirked.

When Lin Li saw Lin Xuan accept his invitation to the birthday party without hesitation, he frowned.

This Lin Xuan had always disliked him; why would he agree to attend this time?

In previous years, when Lin Li held birthday parties, Lin Xuan would always hide in his room, but now he was willing to join in?

Was there something fishy going on?

Lin Li let out a cold laugh. Lin Xuan had already been kicked out of the Lin family; the only person he could rely on now was the woman who was supporting him. What kind of trouble could he possibly cause?

As long as Lin Xuan dared to show up at his birthday party, Lin Li was determined to give him a proper lesson.

Lin Li smiled and said, "Alright then, I look forward to seeing you there, brother. Also, I’ll do my best to persuade mom and dad not to be angry with you."

"Save the fake kindness," Lin Xuan sneered.

He walked past Lin Li with a basketball in hand.

The girls' eyes followed Lin Xuan's every move. Among them were some who were fans of Lin Li.

"I used to think Lin Li was very handsome, but now that Lin Li and Lin Xuan are standing together, Lin Li just pales in comparison. I think Lin Li is just average."

"Exactly, I feel the same way. Lin Li's charisma and looks just can't measure up to Lin Xuan's. As for talent, Lin Xuan's computer skills are top-notch. If he were to compete, he might not be any worse than Lin Li."

"Ladies, I'm jumping ship! I'm a fan of Lin Xuan now!"

Su Hua also came to the university for an inspection.

The principal and a group of school administrators trailed behind her.

The principal inwardly marveled.

Although Su Hua had become the largest shareholder of Qing University more than two years ago, she had never visited the school. This year, however, she had been frequently coming to Qing University for inspections and speeches, all for the sake of Lin Xuan.

He couldn’t help but suspect that her investment in Qing University was also for Lin Xuan's sake.

Just after Lin Xuan had enrolled in Qing University, she immediately purchased the shares of the other shareholders.

That’s true love.

Her actions were so endearing that the principal, an old man himself, felt tempted to fall in love again.

As soon as this thought popped into his head, he imagined his wife, the "tigress," wielding a frying pan in his mind.

He quickly dismissed the idea of romance.

"By the way, Su Hua, today is the basketball friendship match between Qing University and Yundu University. Would you like to watch it?" the principal asked.

Su Hua's expression remained neutral: "No, let's head to the teaching building."

"Er, Su Hua, Lin Xuan is a member of the school's basketball team, and he's playing in the match."

Su Hua: "Take me to the basketball court."

The principal had a knowing expression.

When Su Hua arrived at the basketball court, the spectator seats were already packed with students—mostly from Qing University and Yundu University.

From the crowd of basketball players, Su Hua instantly recognized Lin Xuan.

Under the sunlight, Lin Xuan dribbled the ball and dashed across the court, exuding an exceptionally bright and radiant energy.

Su Hua's eyes revealed a sense of infatuation.

Ah Xuan really shines like a beam of light, making her unable to stop chasing after him.

With a leap, Lin Xuan released the ball from his hands, and it traced a perfect arc through the air.

The basketball accurately landed in the hoop.

"Ahhh—"

The fans let out ear-piercing screams.

"He's so handsome! So handsome!"

"Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan, I love you!"

Su Hua curled her lips. "Ah Xuan is very skilled."

"Indeed," the principal nodded. "Lin Xuan is an excellent student who excels in morality, intelligence, physical fitness, and aesthetics."

"Principal," Su Hua's red lips parted slightly.

"Yes, Su Hua. How may I be of service?" the principal asked respectfully.

"I can stroll around by myself; there's no need for you to accompany me," Su Hua said.

"Understood, Su Hua."

Su Hua was clearly just trying to get rid of the group of electric lights and sounds.

"If you need anything, just have Secretary Jiang contact me," the principal said.

With that, the principal led the group of school administrators away.

"Principal," one of the administrators, confused, asked, "Isn't Su Hua here for an inspection? Why did she send us away?"

The principal chuckled and said, "Let's just say she's here more for pleasure than business. She's using the inspection as an excuse to see her little boyfriend."

That administrator was an old-fashioned type, and he frowned, saying, "Is Su Hua such a person who mixes personal matters with work?"

"It's just a playful little thing between couples; how is that mixing business with pleasure?"

The principal laughed.

He didn’t see anything wrong with Su Hua's actions. If it weren’t for Lin Xuan luring Su Hua to visit, he wouldn’t even have the chance to meet her.

As Lin Xuan continued to score one basketball after another, the students, especially the female admirers, erupted in screams and cheers.

Half-time arrived.

Qin Ruoyao approached Lin Li with a bottle of water in hand, "Li Gege, are you thirsty? Here, take this."

The other students who witnessed the scene frowned.

"Isn't Qin Ruoyao being obvious? First, she pursued Lin Xuan relentlessly, and even publicly confessed her feelings, but when he didn't respond, she turned her attention to Lin Li?

'Pfft,' some students laughed, 'the logistics team already provides water; what's her deal? Why does Qin Ruoyao think she's some kind of goddess?'

"I get the feeling there's something fishy going on between them. Maybe they're secretly hooking up."

"What makes you say that?" a male student sitting in front asked the girl curiously.

The girl responded: "A woman's intuition."

The guy: "..."

What a load of hogwash!

Lin Li looked at the bottle of water in front of him and frowned.

He had previously made it clear that he and Qin Ruoyao had to keep their relationship under wraps and not let it be exposed. Yet now, Qin Ruoyao was brazenly offering him water in public and speaking so intimately.

"Thanks, but no thanks. I already have my own water," Lin Li said, picking up an unopened bottle from the ground.

"Li Gege, I..."

Qin Ruoyao wanted to say more, but Lin Li's piercing glare stopped her in her tracks.

Qin Ruoyao felt so wronged that tears welled up in her eyes.

Why didn't Li Gege want their relationship to be known publicly? Was she really that shameful?

Lin Li’s fans gloated. "I knew it! Lin Li would never pay any attention to someone as fake as Qin Ruoyao. Well, Qin Ruoyao just got put in her place, huh? If I were her, I’d be dying to find a hole in the ground to crawl into."

Qin Ruoyao felt so humiliated that she wanted to disappear right then and there.

It was at that moment that Lin Xuan walked over. "Lin Li, I've seen you and Qin Ruoyao together on multiple occasions. You two must be friends, right?"

Lin Li forced a smile. "We're... acquainted."

The students were puzzled.

If they were at least acquainted, why did Lin Li act as though they were strangers moments ago?
