Hong Yuanjie?
Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes.
He remembered him.
Hong Yuanjie had always taken issue with Lin Xuan being together with Hua.
He didn't expect that Hong Yuanjie had gotten mixed up with Huo Shen.
Lin Xuan pressed a button.
A recording played from his phone.
Lin Xuan listened to the entire conversation between Huo Shen and Hong Yuanjie.
"A hypnotist?"
Lin Xuan shook his head.
He had thought Huo Shen might come up with some real scheme against him.
Instead, it was just trying to put him under hypnosis.
"This Huo Shen actually thinks he can use a hypnotist to make me leave Hua," Lin Xuan said with a cold laugh. "He probably doesn't know that I once tried desperately to leave Hua, and it didn't work."
Not only was Huo Shen's hypnosis plan bound to fail,
but even if it succeeded,
Hua and he would never be separated.
"There's something strange." Lin Xuan rubbed his chin. "Why is Hong Yuanjie so obedient to Huo Shen?"
This was very suspicious.
His subordinate replied, "Young Master Lin, I heard that Huo Shen saved the life of Hong Yuanjie's younger brother."
"No," Lin Xuan shook his head. "That's not like Huo Shen. He's not that kind-hearted."
"Hong Yuanjie is one of Hua's top lieutenants, and Huo Shen just happens to have saved his brother? That can't be a coincidence."
The subordinate frowned.
Hearing Lin Xuan say that, it really did seem too much of a coincidence.
"Investigate it."
Lin Xuan gave the order. "Find out if Huo Shen actually did save Hong Yuanjie's brother, or if it was all a setup by Huo Shen himself."
If the whole "saving the brother" act was orchestrated by Huo Shen, then things would get interesting.
"Yes, sir."
The subordinate immediately began the investigation.
A day later, he had uncovered the whole truth.
"You were right, Young Master Lin. It was definitely staged by Huo Shen."
"Hong Yuanjie's parents died young, so he grew up with only his younger brother to rely on. Huo Shen had someone pose as his brother's enemy and attack him. Then Huo Shen showed up at just the right time and even deliberately took a knife wound. After that, Hong Yuanjie followed Huo Shen's every word."
"Just as I thought."
Lin Xuan let out another cold laugh.
That Huo Shen was truly scheming.
Too bad, since Lin Xuan had found out, Huo Shen's plan was about to fall apart.
"There's one more thing," the subordinate added. "Because of that incident, Hong Yuanjie's brother's feet were ruined. He's now disabled."
Lin Xuan smirked.
"If Hong Yuanjie found out that the person he's so grateful to is actually his enemy, I wonder what his reaction would be."
He imagined it would be quite dramatic.
He needed to have a proper talk with Hong Yuanjie and make him cooperate to pull off this act.
That day.
Hong Yuanjie arrived at Night Garden.
"Miss."
Hong Yuanjie began reporting work to Su Hua.
Su Hua and Lin Xuan were sitting on the sofa.
Lin Xuan used a fork to pick up a piece of fruit and brought it to Su Hua's lips.
"Darling Hua, have some fruit. You need some vitamins."
"Hmm."
Su Hua took a bite of the fruit.
Hong Yuanjie gritted his teeth.
This Lin Xuan was showing off again.
Miss Su was usually so sharp and capable, but Lin Xuan had turned her into a lovesick fool.
"Darling Hua, I want to eat some fruit too, but I want the piece you just had in your mouth." Lin Xuan suddenly kissed Su Hua's lips, stealing the fruit from her mouth with his tongue.
Hong Yuanjie tightened his fists.
Lin Xuan was nothing but a demon!
It infuriated him.
After that, Lin Xuan shot Hong Yuanjie a smug look.
Hong Yuanjie clenched his jaw.
He had to break up Su Hua and Lin Xuan!
Lin Xuan wasn't worthy of Miss Su!
For the rest of the report, Lin Xuan kept flaunting his affection.
Hong Yuanjie was grinding his teeth down to the molars.
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan was thoroughly enjoying himself.
He loved seeing people dislike him yet being unable to do anything about it.
Hong Yuanjie closed the file in his hand.
"Miss Su, I'll take my leave."
"Alright."
Su Hua nodded.
Hong Yuanjie shot Lin Xuan one last dark look before turning to leave.
"Hong Yuanjie, wait."
Lin Xuan called out.
Hong Yuanjie's brow furrowed.
What trick was Lin Xuan pulling now?
"Young Master Lin, what instructions do you have?" Hong Yuanjie asked through gritted teeth.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow. "I need to go out. You can drive me."
"Yes."
Hong Yuanjie took a deep breath. He knew how important Lin Xuan was to Su Hua,
so he always maintained the outward appearance of respect for Lin Xuan.
If he dared to disrespect Lin Xuan, Miss Su would not let him off.
"Ah Xuan, where are you going?" Su Hua asked, frowning.
"It's nothing, Darling Hua. I just need to go to the office. I thought Hong Yuanjie could drive me."
"I'll be back soon; wait for me at home."
Lin Xuan kissed Su Hua's forehead.
"Okay." Su Hua smiled. "I'll wait for you at home."
Home?
It had a nice ring to it—her and Ah Xuan's home.
Hong Yuanjie took the driver's seat, while Lin Xuan sat in the passenger seat.
As he looked at Lin Xuan, Hong Yuanjie's mind began to race.
Wasn't this a perfect opportunity?
He could take the chance to send Lin Xuan straight to Huo Shen.
"Hong Yuanjie," Lin Xuan said, raising an eyebrow, "you have a younger brother, don't you?"
Hong Yuanjie's heart suddenly pounded. "Lin Xuan, what are you trying to do?"
Why was Lin Xuan suddenly bringing up his brother?
A strong sense of panic surged through him.
Was he going to use his brother as leverage?
"Nothing much. Since you've been working under Darling Hua for so long, I had my people visit your brother."
"See," Lin Xuan held up his phone, showing a photo of his subordinates with Hong Yuanjie's brother.
"Lin Xuan." Hong Yuanjie gritted his teeth. "If you do anything to my brother, I won't let you get away with it!"
"Take it easy. I said I just had them visit your brother. I'm not going to harm him." Lin Xuan said.
"Oh, and one more thing," Lin Xuan added. "I see you're quite close with Huo Shen, aren't you?"
Hong Yuanjie's fists tightened.
How did Lin Xuan know? Could it be that Lin Xuan had found out something?
"You even planned with him to hypnotize me so I would leave Darling Hua, am I right?" Lin Xuan said with a raised eyebrow.
"How do you know?" Hong Yuanjie asked nervously.
Lin Xuan smiled. "Don't worry about how. Just know that I'm fully aware of your little plan."
