Su Hua secretly wished for Lin Xuan to have no connection with the Lin family, so that he would become her exclusive possession.
"Yes, yes, I'll do it right away," Lin Chang hastily replied, immediately dialing Wang Yajun to instruct her to log into the Starlight Group's accounts on various platforms and clear up any connections with Lin Xuan as Su Hua requested.
Wang Yajun was surprised, "Chairman, why did you suddenly make this decision?"
"Just do as I say," Lin Chang commanded sternly.
"Yes."
Wang Yajun was more than happy to carry out this task. Once this was publicized, Lin Xuan would have even less chance of competing with Lin Li for the Lin family's inheritance.
Within moments, Wang Yajun posted a message from the official Lin family account:
[Starlight Group: Chairman Lin Chang and the Lin family have, under the witness of a lawyer, signed a document severing relations. Lin Xuan has no connection with the Lin family.]
The post was accompanied by a photo of the severance document.
Lin Chang handed the phone to Su Hua, "Ms. Su, is this satisfactory?"
Su Hua narrowed her eyes.
With this, she no longer needed to worry about the Lin family bothering Lin Xuan in the future.
In the midst of astonished gazes, Su Hua approached Lin Xuan, stood on her tiptoes, and whispered in his ear, "Xuan, from now on, the only person closest to you will be me."
Qin Ruoyao and the Lin family, whom Lin Xuan had once cared about, had all been driven away from his side.
Only Wang Dahe remained.
If he too could break ties with Lin Xuan, that would be even better.
Lin Xuan could sense the excitement and a hint of madness in Su Hua's tone.
"Yes, Huabao, I am yours," Lin Xuan humored her, indulging her every whim.
Su Hua's eyes sparkled with a deep, consuming desire.
She had made the Lin family issue a statement severing ties, and Lin Xuan didn't even get angry. What a good boy.
If the timing had been right, she would have loved to bite his neck and leave her mark.
Lin Chang gawked at the scene, utterly bewildered.
What was going on? Why was Su Hua acting so intimately with Lin Xuan?
Their relationship seemed... extraordinary.
Su Hua's mood suddenly soured. She took several steps back, putting distance between herself and Lin Xuan.
Her cold gaze swept over the crowd of onlookers, whom she considered hindrances to her closeness with Lin Xuan.
The guests exchanged uneasy glances.
"What just happened? Su Hua's expression suddenly turned severe, and when she looked at me, it was unnerving. I haven't done anything to offend her, have I?"
"She looked unhappy because Lin Xuan bumped into her."
"We're just spectators; if anyone has upset her, it's not us. Relax."
Lin Chang felt a chill run down his spine under Su Hua's deathly glare. Her gaze was terrifying.
"Ms. Su, what's wrong?" Lin Chang asked nervously.
Su Hua gave him a cold look, then suddenly smiled, "Chairman Lin, I must thank you and your family."
For pushing my Xuan into my arms.
Lin Chang was confused, "Ms. Su, what are you thanking me for?"
Su Hua didn't answer, instead ordering, "Jiang Qing, Hong Yuanjie, it's time to leave."
Jiang Qing nodded in understanding.
As expected, Su Hua hadn't revealed her relationship with Lin Xuan.
Most guests at this birthday party are some prominent figures. If Su Hua had publicly shown affection toward Lin Xuan, their relationship would surely have been exposed, leading to trouble from the Su family.
Su Hua never wanted Lin Xuan to be in any danger.
As she passed by Lin Xuan, Su Hua paused briefly and murmured provocatively, "Xuan, remember to finish early. I'll be waiting for you."
Lin Chang furrowed his brows.
Why hadn't Su Hua punished Lin Xuan? Could their relationship really be as he suspected?
"Oh, and Chairman Lin," Su Hua added, "arrange a press conference and buy some trending topics to ensure everyone knows Lin Xuan isn't your son."
Lin Chang felt a sense of unease.
Su Hua seemed desperate to distance Lin Xuan from him completely.
Once Su Hua left, Lin Chang couldn't help but pull Lin Xuan aside to ask, "Lin Xuan, do you have some relationship with Su Hua? Are you acquainted?"
Lin Xuan sneered, "That's my personal matter. I don't think I need to explain it to Chairman Lin."
"Lin Xuan, what kind of attitude is that?" Lin Chang's face darkened, "I'm only concerned about you!"
Lin Xuan laughed coldly, "Lin Chang, don't treat me like a fool. If you truly cared, you wouldn't have been so eager to distance yourself from me when Su Hua was around."
"You're asking about my relationship with Su Hua because you're genuinely concerned, or because if I confirm we're acquainted, you want to use me to curry favor with her. You know exactly what your intentions are."
Lin Xuan unflinchingly exposed Lin Chang's true motives.
Lin Chang's face fell, his fists clenched tightly.
Lin Xuan was truly a rebellious son!
Lin Xuan smirked and returned to the banquet hall.
Lin Chang took a deep breath and asked Lin Li, "Li, have you ever seen Su Hua interacting with Lin Xuan?"
Lin Li shook his head, "No, why?"
"I heard Su Hua has a severeOCD, but she didn't pursue Lin Xuan's mistake and even got so close to him. I suspect their relationship is more than ordinary," Lin Chang mused suspiciously.
"Dad, maybe Ms. Su was just in a good mood today and was in a hurry to attend the banquet on the third floor, so she didn't pursue it. Besides, what could Lin Xuan possibly have that would catch Ms. Su's eye?"
Lin Li was determined to dispel his father's suspicions.
He knew he couldn't let Lin Chang find out about Lin Xuan's relationship with Su Hua.
As the CEO of the Su family, Lin Chang would undoubtedly try to curry favor with her. If he discovered that the woman who had taken Lin Xuan from the wedding was Su Hua, Lin Chang would undoubtedly try to bring Lin Xuan back into the Lin family.
Given Lin Chang's profit-driven nature, he might even consider handing over the Starlight Group to Lin Xuan.
These scenarios were absolutely unacceptable to him!
Lin Chang's brows furrowed deeper as he heard Lin Li's reasoning.
Indeed, the possibility seemed slim.
Lin Xuan's academic performance had always been poor, and his talent was hardly enough to capture Su Hua's attention. Moreover, he already had a benefactor, so Su Hua would never consider him as her lover.
Jiang Shuqin sneered, "Chang, even if Lin Xuan has a connection with Su Hua, with his attitude, you won't be able to use him to build a good relationship with her. It's simply not possible."
“Alright, I was just speculating,” Lin Chang replied sternly, “It's time for the banquet to begin. Let's get inside before the guests get impatient.”

Just as he was outwitting his 81st Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to immortality, he was suddenly pulled into a chat group called the "Multiverse Transmigrators Support Group." To his surprise, the group was filled with nothing but fresh-faced newbies who had just transmigrated. [Help! I transmigrated into a disgraced concubine in the cold palace, and the tyrant emperor is about to execute me!] [I ended up as a cannon-fodder villain, and the protagonist is still chasing me—WTF!] [I woke up as the protagonist’s father, but I’m about to be sacrificed in a ritual! What do I do? Urgent!!!] Chen Yi stared at the chaotic flood of desperate pleas in the group and fell into deep thought. "Seriously? You drag me into a newbie transmigrator chat group… only after I’m one step away from becoming an immortal?"

. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
u Chenyuan transmigrated into a female-oriented novel about a real and fake heiress, becoming the CEO elder brother of both. Unfortunately, the entire Lu family—including himself, the CEO—were mere cannon fodder in the story. Determined to save himself, Lu Chenyuan took action. The spoiled, attention-seeking fake heiress? Thrown into the harsh realities of the working class to learn humility. The love-struck real heiress? Pushed toward academic excellence, so lofty goals would blind her to trivial romances. As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
