Su Hua's voice was low, but in the quiet environment of the car, Jiang Qing could still hear it clearly.
Punishment?
Tsk tsk tsk, Su Hua wouldn't dare punish Lin Xuan, most likely, cough cough cough.
Hong Yuanjie, sitting nearby, also perked up his ears, and his heart relaxed.
It seemed that the master didn't like Lin Xuan that much after all, casually threatening to punish him.
Hong Yuanjie was ready to enjoy the show.
Time ticked by second by second, and the atmosphere in the car became increasingly tense.
Jiang Qing couldn't help but sneakily send a message to Lin Xuan.
【Lin Xuan, when will you be done over there?】
Lin Xuan: 【I'm done, heading back soon.】
Jiang Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Hua, seated in the car, saw Lin Xuan walking toward them from a distance, and her aura of anger dissipated slightly.
A subtle smile curved her lips.
Jiang Qing: "..."
Every day with Su Hua is like watching a drama unfold.
When Lin Xuan hurried into the car, Su Hua deliberately kept a cold expression.
Jiang Qing peeked and thought: "!!!"
Didn't Su Hua stop being angry?
How did her mood change again?
It's said that a woman's heart is hard to fathom, and it seems Su Hua is no exception.
"Hmph." Hong Yuanjie smirked, letting out a disdainful snort.
Jiang Qing looked at Hong Yuanjie with confusion.
Why did she see a look of schadenfreude on his face?
Lin Xuan, seeing Su Hua's expression, quickly deduced that perhaps he was late and that made Su Hua angry.
"I was engrossed in watching the show and lost track of time," Lin Xuan explained honestly.
Su Hua remained cold-faced.
The atmosphere in the air seemed a bit stagnant.
"Was the show that good?" The glamorous woman suddenly pulled Lin Xuan's neck down, her crimson lips brushing against his cheek, their breaths mingling in a sensuous embrace.
Hong Yuanjie frowned.
Didn't the master say she was going to punish Lin Xuan?
What was she doing now?
The unique fragrance of a woman drifted into Lin Xuan's nose, causing his body to tense up inexplicably.
"It was alright," Lin Xuan gulped.
"Then, Xuan, did the Lin Family give you a hard time?" Su Hua narrowed her eyes, her gaze radiating danger.
If anyone dared to make her Xuan suffer, they shouldn't blame her.
Lin Xuan replied, "Don't worry, Jiaobao, as long as I remain indifferent to familial bonds, the Lin Family can't touch me."
What they can hurt me with are just those so-called family ties.
"This time, I'm here to stir things up, not to get hurt," Lin Xuan added.
"Mm," Su Hua's lips curved slightly. Her Xuan was indeed amazing.
"Now that the Lin Family matter is temporarily resolved, what about the issue of you being late?"
Su Hua's slender, jade-like fingers played with the tie in front of Lin Xuan, "I suspect Xuan was mesmerized by some high-class beauties and couldn't bear to leave."
She had noticed that among the attendees at the party, there were many beautiful women.
"I wonder how many trysts Xuan stirred up in there."
Su Hua's fingertip teasingly traced Lin Xuan's chest.
"No, I was focused on the video matter this time and didn't pay attention to other women," Lin Xuan assured, his gaze evasive and rather guilty.
He had indeed attracted some attention—Shen Qianqian seemed to fancy him—and who knows if there were other women as well.
"Su Hua, no matter the reason, I was indeed late. Whatever you want to punish me with, I'll accept it." Lin Xuan decided to embrace his fate.
"That's what Xuan said," Su Hua's eyes gleamed with a hidden light.
What she had been waiting for was Xuan's agreement.
"Remember, Xuan will be at my mercy today."
"Click!"
Jiang Qing, hearing this, realized something was off and quickly pressed a button.
The partition rose between the seats.
Jiang Qing's eyes were fixed straight ahead.
She finally understood why Su Hua, despite not being angry, still had a frosty expression when facing Lin Xuan.
It was all an excuse to make demands on Lin Xuan.
How bold, cough cough cough.
Indeed, Su Hua was quite the player.
Hong Yuanjie, driving in the front seat, had veins popping on the back of his hands, almost crushing the steering wheel in his grip.
He thought the master was truly punishing Lin Xuan.
As a result...
Hong Yuanjie's eyes darkened.
Lin Xuan really had some skills to make the always detached and uninterested master turn... so lewd.
The car entered Night Garden.
In the backseat, Su Hua was now sitting across Lin Xuan's lap, her arms wrapped around his neck, her face flushed, and her lips a deep crimson.
Her beautiful eyes glistened with moisture.
Their clothes were still intact but looked quite disheveled.
"Jiaobao, let me carry you out," Lin Xuan's voice was slightly hoarse, the little woman in his arms too captivating, he was barely holding back.
"Not yet."
Su Hua, like a bewitching seductress, once again offered her lips to the man.
"This suit, Xuan, must keep it on," Su Hua whispered in Lin Xuan's ear, her warm breath sultry and alluring.
Hong Yuanjie and Jiang Qing had already gotten out of the car.
Hong Yuanjie spoke grimly, "Indeed, a man can be a disaster."
In the past, the master always kept a distance from men, but now in front of Lin Xuan, she had turned into something like a clingy little wife, completely losing her previous cold, ruthless demeanor.
This was not the master he remembered!
Jiang Qing smiled, "You'll just have to get used to it."
"Jiang Qing." Hong Yuanjie couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you worried someone might use Lin Xuan to target the master?"
Jiang Qing seemed not only indifferent to Lin Xuan but even respectful toward him.
Jiang Qing nodded, "I used to have that concern. Once Su Hua has a weakness, those people might find an opening."
"But now, I'm not worried anymore."
Lin Xuan was capable of protecting himself, and perhaps in the future, he might even protect Su Hua instead.
“Why?” Hong Yuanjie asked, frowning.
"Lin Xuan isn't weak. You might not believe it now, but you'll see in time."
Jiang Qing didn't elaborate further.
"Alright, let's go."
Jiang Qing even specifically told the butler, Wang, to instruct the household staff not to approach the car.
"Jiang Qing, I understand. I'll make the arrangements," the butler smiled and agreed.
An hour later.
Lin Xuan carried Su Hua out of the car.
Su Hua's shoes were still in the car, and she was barefoot, her arms wrapped around Lin Xuan's neck, leaning against him.
An aura of intimacy surrounded the two of them.
The butler's gaze lingered on them suggestively.
However...
The butler glanced at Su Hua's stomach, wondering how the two of them, so deeply enamored, hadn't conceived a child yet.
The butler felt curious.
Lin Xuan carried Su Hua into the room and placed her on the sofa.
Turning his head, he saw a rolling rack filled with suits in various colors: red, blue, gray...
There were suits of all colors.
