Lin Xuan had been drained dry by a certain seductive little vixen, truly, not a single drop left.
They fell asleep in each other's arms.
Before drifting off, Lin Xuan's mind was occupied by one thought.
Damn it!
Yet again, he had lost.
Lin Xuan and Su Hua, both utterly exhausted from their antics, didn't fall into a deep sleep until 10 a.m. It was 6 p.m. when Lin Xuan woke up, and Su Hua was already gone.
Lin Xuan lay in bed, feeling utterly devastated.
Where on earth did Su Hua get her freakish stamina?
His male pride had been thoroughly crushed in front of her.
Wang Dahe called Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan's mood was far from pleasant.
"You'd better have a good reason for calling," Lin Xuan said coldly.
Wang Dahe flinched. "What's with you, Xuan? Did you swallow dynamite or something? You're in such a bad mood today."
Lin Xuan: "I'm just not in a good mood."
"What happened?" Wang Dahe asked curiously.
Lin Xuan: "..."
After a moment of silence, he couldn't very well say that Su Hua's skills had improved so much she had won in bed again, leaving him feeling frustrated.
"Spit it out, what's the matter?" Lin Xuan pinched the bridge of his nose.
"It's nothing serious, just wanted to ask why you didn't show up at school again today. I called you this morning and afternoon, but your phone was off. Did something happen?" Wang Dahe asked, concerned.
Lin Xuan replied: "I was with my girlfriend."
"What? You said yesterday that Su Hua was out on a business trip. She's not even in Yundu City. You could have come up with a better excuse." Wang Dahe thought Lin Xuan was just making up a lame excuse.
"She came back abruptly in the middle of the night," Lin Xuan said gloomily.
Almost draining him dry in the process.
Wang Dahe: "???"
"Her original plan was a two-day trip, but..." Lin Xuan sighed. "She's so clingy. She couldn't wait a single day without coming back to me."
Despite the blow to his ego from losing yet again in the early hours of the morning, he mostly felt exhilarated. Truly, it was beyond amazing.
Fortunately, not many people knew about his inability to match Su Hua's stamina.
"You're living the dream," Wang Dahe said sourly. "I'm hanging up now. You can go back to your precious Su Hua."
The stench of romance was practically oozing through the phone.
He really needed to get a girlfriend.
This way, Xuan wouldn't keep gloating in front of him.
Lin Xuan hung up and changed into a fresh set of clothes before heading downstairs.
As soon as he entered the dining room, he saw Su Hua sipping something.
"Hua baby, what's that? It smells like medicine. Are you sick?" Lin Xuan asked, frowning.
"No," Su Hua replied, her eyes flickering as she set the bowl down. "I've been staying up late recently. It's just a regular tonic for my health."
"As long as you're alright," Lin Xuan said, no longer suspicious.
Butler Wang smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, your favorite dishes are still warm in the pot. Let me bring them out for you."
Butler Wang headed to the kitchen, and Lin Xuan suddenly stood up from his chair.
Su Hua glanced at him.
Lin Xuan explained sheepishly: "I'll go help Butler Wang."
Lin Xuan squeezed into the kitchen.
"Butler Wang," Lin Xuan said in a low voice.
"Mr. Lin," Butler Wang greeted respectfully.
Lin Xuan carefully looked around, then whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear: "Butler Wang, did you prepare the ten-treasure tonic soup?"
"I prepared it for you a long time ago, Mr. Lin," Butler Wang said with a smile, ladling out a bowl of thick soup from a medicinal pot.
Lin Xuan drank the soup in one go.
Butler Wang's smile grew even warmer.
The young couple really thought alike.
Great, great.
If they kept this up, it wouldn't be long before there would be little masters and young ladies for him to carry.
Lin Xuan returned to the dining table.
Feigning a normal expression, he continued eating dinner with Su Hua.
After dropping out of Shangqing University, Qin Ruoyao had been living in a haze of depression.
"Mom, is my life over?" Qin Ruoyao cried in her mother's arms.
"I only have a high school diploma now. My reputation is ruined. No rich families will ever look at me."
"I'm so miserable, so heartbroken."
She should have been a proud daughter of heaven, living a life of luxury and admiration.
Instead, she was now stuck in a shabby rental apartment.
Wearing clothes that cost just over a hundred yuan each, using cosmetics that cost a few hundred at most.
Qin's Mother stroked her hair and comforted her, saying: "My dear Ruoyao, with your beauty, how could your life be over?"
"Mom, what should I do now?" Qin Ruoyao's tears kept falling.
Qin's Mother said: "With your looks, you could become a star."
"But my reputation is damaged," Qin Ruoyao said, biting her lip. She had always loved the entertainment industry, the feeling of being admired by everyone.
But those big families didn't like celebrities, so she had given up on the idea.
"In the entertainment industry, black can easily be turned white. What's a little scandal compared to that? Once you sign with an entertainment company, they'll help you clean up your image," Qin's Mother said with a smile.
"Mom, don't you remember?" Qin Ruoyao choked up. "Starlight Entertainment controls most of the entertainment industry. After what I did to their family, how could they ever let me rise in the industry?"
"Don't worry, Ruoyao. I've already thought of a solution," Qin's Mother smiled. "You can go to Tianmu Entertainment."
"Tianmu Entertainment?" Qin Ruoyao frowned.
Why did that name sound so familiar?
"Yes," Qin's Mother nodded with a smile. "They've signed many artists who've been banned by Starlight Entertainment. They're clearly positioning themselves as rivals to Starlight."
"I've already looked into it. Tianmu Entertainment has great potential. Their artists are mostly average. With my daughter's beauty, if you sign with them, they'll definitely invest in you." Qin's Mother was confident.
Qin Ruoyao's eyes lit up with hope.
Yes, she could join another entertainment company.
She would become a shining star.
"Okay, Mom. I'll follow your arrangement," Qin Ruoyao nodded.
"I've already submitted the application form for you. The audition is in a few days. Use this time to rest and practice your acting," Qin's Mother said with a smile.
"Okay," Qin Ruoyao nodded.
In the Shen household.
"Miss Shen," the bodyguard said respectfully.
Shen Qianqian was sitting on the sofa,wearing a pink princess dress.
Seeing the bodyguard, she immediately straightened up excitedly and asked: "How did the investigation go? Did you find out who Lin Xuan's girlfriend is? She definitely doesn't have as good a background as me, and she's not as pretty as me, right?"
In all of Yundu City, there were few women with better family backgrounds than her. Even less considering she was the sole heir of Shen Corporation, which would one day be entirely hers.
Her conditions were undoubtedly superior to Lin Xuan's girlfriend's.
