She Is Su Hua

Jiang Shuqin walked toward Lin Li with a worried expression. "Li'er, why do you think Su Hua came today? Could it be that she plans to publicly announce her relationship with Lin Xuan?"

If that really happened, Lin Xuan would surely be gloating, and Lin Chang would also go out of his way to please him.

Given how much Lin Xuan despised them, he might even demand that Lin Chang expel her, Li'er, and Wan'er and her sisters from the Lin family as a condition for his return.

She had finally come to understand—Lin Chang was a man who only cared about profit.

There was a real chance he might actually kick them out for Lin Xuan's sake.

"I don’t know if she’ll announce it or not," Lin Li replied, her face pale as she shook her head.

"Li'er, what should we do now?" Jiang Shuqin fretted.

The Starlight Group had been built with the money she brought from the Jiang family.

She refused to let that ungrateful Lin Xuan inherit it!

"Mom, don’t worry too much," Lin Li said, gripping Jiang Shuqin’s hand. "Su Hua might not announce anything."

Hadn’t Su Hua visited before?

Back then, she was already with Lin Xuan, yet she never publicly acknowledged their relationship.

They had remained secret lovers all this time.

It seemed Su Hua really was just toying with Lin Xuan.

But now, over a year later, they still hadn’t broken up. Instead, Su Hua had even supported Lin Xuan in founding Skyline Group...

Was he really just a plaything?

Lin Li wasn’t so sure anymore.

Meanwhile, Lin Qingxiu and Lin Qingyan rushed to find Lin Chang in a panic.

Lin Chang was chatting with Feng Weimin when they arrived.

Puzzled, he asked, "What’s wrong? Why aren’t you entertaining the guests? What brings you here?"

"Dad," Lin Qingyan said urgently, "Su Hua, the CEO of Su Corporation, is here—she’s in the main hall right now."

"Are you sure it’s really Su Hua?" Feng Weimin pressed anxiously.

"Yes, it’s her. I’ve seen her before—I wouldn’t mistake her," Lin Qingxiu confirmed with a nod.

Feng Weimin turned to Lin Chang in shock.

He was certain the Feng family and Feng Corporation had no prior dealings with Su Hua. She couldn’t have come for them—which meant she was here for the Lin family.

Who would’ve thought the Lin family had such connections, managing to latch onto someone of Su Hua’s stature?

This marriage alliance was turning out better than expected.

Feng Weimin had always opposed Feng Yaya’s relationship with Lin Li, suspecting Lin Li of ulterior motives.

But now, knowing Su Hua might have ties to the Lin family, he no longer had any objections.

"Father-in-law," Feng Weimin said with a smile, "let’s hurry and greet CEO Su. We shouldn’t keep her waiting."

"Agreed," Lin Chang nodded.

The two men quickly made their way to meet Su Hua.

Downstairs in the main hall—

Lin Xuan kicked the young rich heir in the stomach, then, still furious, delivered another brutal blow to his chest.

"Ah—!"

The heir screamed again as he was sent flying, his back slamming into a table before crashing to the floor.

"Oww… That hurts so much!" The heir groaned in pain, clutching his chest and abdomen as he writhed on the ground.

Su Hua watched Lin Xuan with amusement glinting in her eyes.

Being protected by her man felt rather nice.

"My son!" A lavishly dressed woman adorned with jewelry knelt beside the heir.

Seeing his pitiful state, her heart ached.

"Who did this to you? Tell me, and I’ll make them pay!" she hissed through gritted teeth.

"It was them!"

The heir pointed accusingly at Lin Xuan.

"They’re the ones who hurt me!"

"Fine. Your father and I will settle this," the woman vowed.

"Mom, just punish the man. Leave the woman for me, okay?" the heir pleaded.

Even now, he couldn’t shake his obsession with Su Hua.

"Of course, whatever you want," the woman agreed.

Just then, Xia Feng, the heir’s father, arrived.

After his wife explained the situation, Xia Feng stormed over to Su Hua and Lin Xuan with a dark expression.

"So, you’re the ones who hurt my son?"

"Yes," Lin Xuan answered coldly.

"Good, very good," Xia Feng sneered. "You’ve got nerve, treating my son like this. You’re Lin Xuan, right? Don’t think being the CEO of Skyline Group means I’ll let this slide."

"You will pay for what you’ve done!" Xia Feng’s voice dripped with menace.

Skyline Group was just a fledgling company.

Compared to the deep-rooted Xia Corporation, it was nothing.

"Lin Xuan, you’ve made an enemy of me," Xia Feng spat.

Those who knew Su Hua’s identity watched the scene unfold with amusement, inwardly regretting not stepping in earlier.

If they had helped Su Hua when Xia Feng’s son harassed her, they could’ve earned her favor.

"Chairman Xia, are you threatening the man who saved me?" Su Hua’s red lips parted as she spoke, her voice icy.

"And who are you?"

Xia Feng’s disdainful gaze swept over her.

From what his wife said, his son had been beaten because he took a liking to this woman.

With her bewitching looks, she was clearly a seductress.

He didn’t recognize her from any elite circles, meaning she was likely just Lin Xuan’s kept woman.

Before Su Hua could answer, Xia Feng scoffed, "No need to explain—I know exactly what you are."

"However much Lin Xuan is paying to keep you, I’ll double it. Leave him and come with my son."

Tsk, tsk.

The onlookers shook their heads in disbelief.

This man was truly digging his own grave.

Trying to buy the head of the largest corporation in the country for his son?

What a joke.

At that moment, Lin Chang and Feng Weimin arrived.

"What’s going on here?" Lin Chang asked, frowning.

Xia Feng pointed at Lin Xuan and Su Hua. "Chairman Lin, these two injured my son. I demand you expel them immediately!"

Lin Chang’s heart skipped a beat.

His eyes fell on the heir sprawled on the floor. He’d heard rumors about Xia Feng’s son—a notorious womanizer.

From the looks of it, the heir had tried to harass Su Hua, only for Lin Xuan to step in and beat him up.

And now, Lin Xuan had played the hero in front of Su Hua!

"Chairman Xia," Lin Chang said with a cold laugh, "do you even know who your son just insulted?"

"What’s there to know? Just some mistress Lin Xuan keeps around. So what if he flirted with her?"

"No," Lin Chang said sharply. "Her identity is beyond anything you or I could dare to challenge."

"She is Su Hua—CEO of Su Corporation."
