What on earth is going on here?
Shao Xingfan’s face was filled with despair.
Boss Su had been discussing a collaboration with the CEO of Anxin Technology, but that reckless CEO had the audacity to send a man to Boss Su—and to make matters worse, the man had even touched Boss Su’s arm.
Everyone knew that Boss Su kept her distance from men and avoided them at all costs.
Now, Boss Su was sitting on the couch with a dark expression, looking like she was ready to kill someone.
Jiang Qing was anxiously waiting at the hotel entrance.
She hoped that Young Master Lin would arrive in time to calm Boss Su’s anger, or else both she and the CEO would be in serious trouble.
Finally, Lin Xuan drove up to the hotel.
Jiang Qing’s eyes lit up, and she quickly walked over. “Young Master Lin, come with me right away.”
“What’s going on?” Lin Xuan asked, confused.
As they walked, Jiang Qing explained the whole situation to Lin Xuan.
By the time she finished, they had reached the door of the hotel private room.
“So, Secretary Jiang, you’re asking me to put out Boss Su’s fire?” Lin Xuan gulped.
“Yes, you’re the only one who can calm her down.”
“You’re giving me too much credit.”
Su Hua was a yandere when she got angry—approaching her now would be suicidal.
“Young Master Lin, you’re underestimating yourself.”
Jiang Qing opened the door to the private room.
“Secretary Jiang…” Lin Xuan started to say something, but in the blink of an eye, Jiang Qing had disappeared.
Huh? Where did she go?
“Young Master Lin.” Jiang Qing’s voice floated eerily from behind him.
Lin Xuan was startled.
Of course, the people under Su Hua’s command weren’t exactly normal either.
“What is it?” Lin Xuan had a bad feeling about this.
“Young Master Lin, you can do it. Go for it, you’ve got this!”
With that, Jiang Qing pushed Lin Xuan into the room.
Lin Xuan: “…” This is such a trap! A damn trap!
Everyone in the room turned to look at Lin Xuan.
Shao Xingfan: “!!!” So the person Secretary Jiang said could calm Boss Su down was this pretty boy?
Are we sure this will work?
After pushing Lin Xuan in, Jiang Qing also entered the room and closed the door behind her, standing guard at the entrance. There was no way Lin Xuan could escape now.
What a messed-up situation!
Lin Xuan had no choice but to brace himself and step forward.
“Su Hua.”
Wang Jianghai: “???” This guy has some guts, daring to call Boss Su by her full name.
To be honest, this man was even more handsome than the one he had brought over.
But Boss Su probably wouldn’t be interested.
Thinking about this, Wang Jianghai was filled with regret. He shouldn’t have sent a man to Boss Su in the first place. He had thought the guy was handsome and fresh-faced, so he thought it would be a good idea to offer him to Boss Su, but it turned out to be a huge mistake.
Lin Xuan moved closer to Su Hua.
“Su Hua, don’t be angry. It’s not good for a woman to get angry—it ages you.” Lin Xuan racked his brain to come up with this line.
“What are you doing here?” Su Hua asked coldly.
“To put out the fire…” Lin Xuan blurted out without thinking.
“No, I mean, I’m here to accompany you, to wait for you so we can go home together after work.”
Su Hua frowned.
Lin Xuan took the tissue from her hand. “Su Hua, stop wiping. Your skin is so delicate—you shouldn’t leave any marks on it.”
Wang Jianghai: “!!!” Did he just see that? This guy actually touched Su Hua, and she didn’t react at all!
Shao Xingfan was also frozen in place.
Did this pretty boy just say… he was waiting for Boss Su to go home after work?
Su Hua pursed her lips, the cold aura around her still intense.
Lin Xuan really didn’t know how to calm Su Hua down, so he closed his eyes, leaned in, and kissed her red lips.
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.”

't think I'm that capable, I'm just trying my best to stay alive. I've been kind all my life, never did anything bad, yet worldly suffering spared me not one bit. The human world is a nice place, but I won't come back in my next life. A kind young man, who wanted to just get by singing, but through repeated deceits and betrayals, has gone down an irredeemable path.
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.
