Only when she was inseparable from her beloved Xuan could she fully suppress the maddening urge in her mind to lock him away.
Lin Xuan was her medicine.
"Xuan."
Su Hua's slender, pale fingers trailed down Lin Xuan's chest, sliding beneath the fabric of his clothes.
Lin Xuan's body tensed.
Now, Su Hua could easily ignite a fire within him.
Her hand finally settled around his wrist. "If Xuan still doesn’t know what to do, I’ll teach you," she whispered softly into his ear.
...
Though their clothes remained on, they were thoroughly disheveled. Su Hua’s face was flushed with a seductive glow, her eyes shimmering with an irresistible allure.
Butler Wang had already cleared the entire villa of staff.
On the living room sofa, the stunning woman draped her soft arms over Lin Xuan’s shoulders, arching her swan-like neck in a graceful curve.
Lin Xuan kissed her, feeling intoxicated—utterly bewitched by the enchantress beneath him.
"Xuan, I’m yours… yours alone, your Hua Bao," Su Hua coaxed, luring him deeper into surrender.
That night, Su Hua was uncharacteristically wild, overwhelming even Lin Xuan, who had been holding his own against her lately.
Truly, not a drop was left.
When it was all over,
In the upstairs bedroom, on the expansive black bed,
Both had changed into fresh pajamas. Su Hua lay against Lin Xuan’s chest, her fingertips lightly tracing the contours of his brows.
This version of Xuan was perfect.
The happiness she had longed for in the past had finally become reality.
"Xuan, we’ll stay like this forever, won’t we?" Su Hua murmured.
The next morning, when Lin Xuan awoke, the woman was already gone.
He lay sprawled on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Damn it, he’d lost again!
Last night, Hua Bao had unleashed some kind of dragoness mode—completely insane.
But damn, it had been good.
His phone rang.
It was Wang Ba.
"Boss, I sent men to grab Lin Li last night, but he’d already flown abroad—apparently on some academic exchange with his professor."
"Boss, we could take him out overseas, no problem, but bringing him back to the country would be tricky."
"Should I just finish him off there?"
Wang Ba’s voice brimmed with eagerness.
If the boss gave the word, he’d book a flight to the U.S. immediately!
"No need," Lin Xuan replied. "Just keep eyes on him. The moment he returns, grab him."
Torturing someone was far more satisfying when done personally.
Still, he was in a foul mood and needed to vent—Lin Li would do.
Tch.
That bastard actually had the nerve to plot castrating him.
Lin Xuan would never guess it was his own wife who’d orchestrated it. Lin Li, twisted as he was, simply wanted to inflict the same torment.
Lin Xuan sent Lin Li a message:
[Ten days ago, you placed an order on the dark web—8 million to turn Lin Xuan into a eunuch and torture him for a while, right?]
Lin Li’s heart raced when he saw it.
[You caught him?]
If they had, he’d soon witness Lin Xuan’s ruin—his reputation destroyed, abandoned by Su Hua.
The thought alone was exhilarating.
[No, he got away. Too many guards around him. We lost five men.]
Lin Li paled.
Failed?!
"Too many guards"—it had to be Su Hua’s doing!
Furious, he stabbed at his phone.
[What kind of operation are you running? You guaranteed success!]
Now that Lin Xuan was alerted, catching him again would be near impossible.
Lin Xuan’s reply came swiftly:
[You’re questioning me? I should be questioning you! You said he was just some ordinary college student—no powerful connections. You owe us 15 million for our losses.]
[Wire it to this account: 6118890…]
[No payment? Then brace yourself. My gang doesn’t play nice.]
Lin Li glared at his screen.
Not only had they botched the job, they were extorting him!
Scum!
Wait—the dark web protected buyer anonymity. How had they found him?
Blood boiling, Lin Li immediately contacted the dark web, demanding they punish the Black Tiger Gang.
The dark web didn’t tolerate breaches—if the gang had hacked their data, they were finished.
But the dark web played dumb.
They knew nothing.
Lin Li’s complaint made it clear the Black Tiger Gang was behind this, but the dark web dared not act.
The gang had a hacker god among them.
Pissing off that talent risked the entire dark web collapsing—a death sentence.
Best to stay out of it.
Lin Li’s complaint was ignored.
With that handled,
Lin Xuan, dark circles under his eyes, drifted downstairs for breakfast.
Butler Wang spotted him and cheerfully brought out a long-missed bowl of revitalizing tonic.
Lin Xuan accepted it without hesitation.
"Butler Wang, it’s been a month since you last made this. Why today?" Lin Xuan asked curiously.
"Master Lin, truthfully, I’ve brewed it daily—except when Miss was away. But since you always woke first, I assumed you didn’t need it," Butler Wang replied with a smile.
Just look at those eye bags—the young master’s vitality had clearly been drained.
Last night must have been intense.
Lin Xuan nodded emphatically.
Butler Wang was truly a top-tier butler.
He raised the bowl and gulped it down. Halfway through, Su Hua walked in.
Lin Xuan’s heart skipped.
He set the bowl down casually. "Hua Bao, I thought you were at work?"
"Nothing urgent, so I came back," Su Hua said smoothly.
Meanwhile, the overworked Jiang Qing: "???" *Nothing urgent*, Boss?
"Xuan, after breakfast, I’ll drive you to school."
"Sure."
Su Hua caught a whiff of herbs and frowned, stepping closer.
"What’s this…?" Her gaze landed on the half-finished tonic.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!!

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
