The nurse pulled her hand out of Qin Ruoyao's grasp with a look of disgust.
"Of course it's true. It's all over the internet now."
"Look."
The nurse showed Qin Ruoyao the content on the internet.
Qin Ruoyao bit her lip.
They really got married.
After all this time, Lin Xuan and Su Hua actually hadn't broken up. They really got married.
Scenes from the past flashed through Qin Ruoyao's mind.
Tears of regret rolled down Qin Ruoyao's face.
"Lin Li, I hate you."
Qin Ruoyao squatted on the ground in agony.
It was all Lin Li's fault!
If it wasn't for Lin Li, she and Lin Xuan wouldn't have separated.
The person standing so happily next to Lin Xuan right now should be her, not Su Hua!
Her eyes suddenly filled with hatred, and her expression looked deranged.
"Lin Li, just you wait."
"I won't let you off. You'd better pray that I never get out of this mental hospital!"
"If I do get out, Lin Li, I will definitely lock you up and torture you."
"When that time comes, you will beg for life and pray for death."
"Hahahaha."
Qin Ruoyao began to laugh.
Seeing Qin Ruoyao's state, the psychiatric hospital nurse quickly snatched the phone back from her hand.
Then she hurriedly walked out of Qin Ruoyao's ward.
A nurse took out her phone and made a call, "Dr. Lu, Qin Ruoyao is letting out this eerie laughter. It seems she's having another episode."
"Alright, I understand."
A doctor, accompanied by several orderlies, walked into Qin Ruoyao's room.
Seeing them, Qin Ruoyao kept backing away.
"What are you doing? Don't give me a shot! I'm not sick! Do you hear me? I am not sick!"
Ignoring Qin Ruoyao's struggles, the doctor injected her with a needle.
Qin Ruoyao fell into unconsciousness.
A nurse asked in confusion, "What's wrong with this Qin Ruoyao? Why did she react so violently upon seeing the news of Su Hua and Lin Xuan's marriage?"
"Qin Ruoyao? That name sounds a bit familiar."
"Wait, let me look it up."
Another female nurse started searching on the internet.
"It really is her!"
"Qin Ruoyao seems to be the woman Lin Xuan used to like. It's just that Lin Xuan didn't stand out much before, so Qin Ruoyao degraded herself and ran off to be Lin Li's mistress. Now she can only stay in this mental hospital, while Lin Xuan has become the boss of Tianmu Group. The contrast is too stark. She must be regretting not staying with Lin Xuan back then."
"Then it's her own fault she ended up like this. She deserves it."
Doesn't she deserve it, indeed?
If she had just peacefully stayed with Lin Xuan, she would definitely be living a life of wealth and luxury right now. How would she be like this, spending all day in a mental hospital in a daze, clearly not crazy but treated like a lunatic?
Then again, this Qin Ruoyao is quite resilient.
It's been so long.
And she still hasn't been driven completely insane.
The two nurses cast a sympathetic glance at the unconscious Qin Ruoyao.
After sending out the wedding invitations, Lin Xuan sat in the CEO's office of the Tianmu Group.
Lei Hui stood to the side.
He sighed.
Alas.
In the past, he would have definitely brought over a pile of documents for the boss to handle.
However, the last time, in order to enjoy the gossip about the Lin family, he had promised the boss that he wouldn't make him handle company affairs for this period of time.
He even had to help block other people in the company from looking for the boss.
Foxtail and the other employees were all full of complaints.
They all felt that they hadn't been on the scene to eat the Lin family's gossip, and they had no way to find the boss to help them solve their problems. They had really suffered a huge loss.
Lin Xuan sat at the desk, tapping his fingers on the surface.
"With Hua and I getting married, Huo Shen definitely won't just sit and wait. So he will definitely make a move."
He had found Huo Shen to be an eyesore for a long time.
It was time to deal with Huo Shen.
This Huo Shen was like a poisonous snake hiding in a gutter, ready to come out and bite him when he was off guard.
Dealing with Huo Shen earlier would allow him to have peace of mind earlier.
Hua didn't care about Huo Shen.
Killing Huo Shen directly wouldn't be a problem on Hua's end, but Grandpa Su... If something happened to Huo Shen, Grandpa Su would definitely search for him everywhere.
He had to make Grandpa Su see Huo Shen's true colors.
Lin Xuan picked up his phone and ordered, "Send someone to keep a close eye on Huo Shen. If he makes any moves, contact me immediately."
"Yes."
The subordinate complied.
He went to carry it out right away.
Lei Hui walked up, rubbing his hands together, his voice laced with excitement.
"Boss, are you going to stir up trouble again?"
"Yes."
Lin Xuan nodded, "I'm going to dispose of someone first, a blind bug who covets someone else's fiancee."
"Then Boss, can I..." also tag along to watch a good show?
Lin Xuan seemed to see through Lei Hui's thoughts and refused, "Uncle Lei, I'm just going to deal with someone this time. It's not convenient for you to follow."
"Besides, this time it won't be dramatic enough. There's nothing good to watch."
"Alright then." Lei Hui sighed.
He had thought there would be a good show to watch this time.
Lin Xuan stood up. "I'm heading back to Night Garden now."
"Boss," Lei Hui looked curious, "Don't you rarely stay at Night Garden during the day?"
That was why he often ran to the company or the university.
Lin Xuan said, "I can go back now."
Because Hua was pregnant, there was no way she could drag him to do that kind of thing for the time being.
So it was fine for him to hole up at home every day.
"Oh."
Lei Hui nodded.
On the way driving back to Night Garden, Lin Xuan thought of the chips and the lithography machine. He turned the car around and headed to Shangqing University.
It was better to quickly get the chips and lithography machine researched and developed.
Lin Xuan arrived at Shangqing University, at the chip and lithography machine research lab.
Wang Dahe walked over and teased with a smile, "Student Lin Xuan, why aren't you, the groom-to-be, preparing for your wedding with CEO Su? How do you have the time to visit the lab today?"
Lin Xuan nodded in agreement, "True, I should go prepare. I'll be leaving then, you guys continue with the research."
"No, no, no."
Wang Dahe hurriedly stopped Lin Xuan.
"Xuan, you came at just the right time. We happen to have encountered a difficult problem that needs you to solve."
"Quick, come help us solve it."
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow and said, "Weren't you just telling me to go prepare for the wedding?"
Wang Dahe said, "I was just joking. I was wrong, Xuan, I apologize to you."
"Alright." Lin Xuan nodded, "What's the problem?"
"It's..."
The members of the experimental group began to explain it to Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan's brows furrowed slightly.
He inspected it carefully from top to bottom.
Then he began writing and drawing on a piece of paper.
From start to finish, it took less than twenty minutes for Lin Xuan to hand the paper over to the experimental group members.
"Just follow what's on here and run the experiment again."
"Okay."
The experimental group members hurriedly went to conduct the experiment.
Lin Xuan, on the other hand, sat down on a chair, crossed his legs, and started playing on his phone.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
his freshman year, Su Bai accidentally bound the "Indulgence Tycoon System." 【Sleeping in? Reward: +$1,000】 【Spent $288 at a street barbecue stall? Cashback: +$2,880】 【Dropped $14,396 on in-game skins? Special reward unlocked: A brand-new Porsche Panamera!】 Luxury cars, penthouses, corporate shares, financial empires… College life was all about living freely and doing whatever he pleased! … When the adorably naive academic genius faced family medical bills and financial struggles, Su Bai waved his hand dismissively: "Your future is on me." "Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success? Not just that—Su Bai also became the tsundere campus belle’s unattainable dream, the contrast senior’s daily necessity, and the beautiful counselor’s emotional anchor…
