"Dad, I didn't drink that. Don't listen to his nonsense," Lin Li said nervously.
He had originally thought he could brush it off with the excuse of in vitro fertilization.
But Lin Xuan had openly exposed the truth.
Lin Chang, who had always trusted Lin Li without question, didn’t immediately believe him this time. His eyes remained fixed on Lin Li.
Lin Li’s face turned pale.
His fingers clutched at his clothes anxiously.
The way Lin Chang looked at him was completely different now—no longer the gentle, affectionate gaze of before, but filled with suspicion.
"You’re coming with me to the hospital for a check-up," Lin Chang said sternly.
Lin Li clenched his fists tightly.
He couldn’t go to the hospital!
If he did, everything would be exposed!
And Lin Chang would cast him aside like a discarded pawn.
"Dad, don’t you trust me?" Lin Li’s eyes reddened.
Seeing Lin Li’s pitiful expression, Jiang Shuqin immediately stepped in protectively, shielding him.
"Lin Chang, what are you doing? Our son was just publicly humiliated over this… this issue, and now you want to drag him to the hospital? Are you trying to rub salt in his wounds? Is this how a father should act?"
Lin Qingwan also tried to mediate, "Dad, let’s just drop it for now. Even if we do the check-up, it can wait until later. Give him some time."
"Yeah, there’s no rush for the examination," Lin Qingyan agreed, nodding.
"No! He’s going to the hospital right now!" Lin Chang’s tone was unyielding.
"If he refuses, then he can get out of the Lin family!"
Lin Chang delivered his ultimatum.
Lin Li’s face drained completely of color.
What should he do?
He was supposed to inherit Starlight Group!
If Lin Chang found out he couldn’t even produce sperm anymore, he would surely do everything to bring Lin Xuan back into the family—just to secure an heir for the Lin bloodline.
And then, Lin Xuan would undoubtedly drive him out.
There would be no place left for him in the Lin family.
"Lin Li, the choice is yours—hospital or exile," Lin Chang said coldly.
The way Lin Li resisted only confirmed Lin Chang’s suspicions—that he really had consumed the sterilizing concoction.
Still, Lin Chang held onto a sliver of hope, wanting definitive proof.
He grabbed Lin Li and dragged him out of the hotel.
Lin Li didn’t dare resist.
"I’m coming too!" Jiang Shuqin insisted, unwilling to leave them alone. She snatched up her purse and hurried after them.
The three Lin sisters followed as well.
Outside the hotel, Su Hua sat in the parked Rolls-Royce, her aura oppressive.
The driver and Butler Wang sat in the front seats, not daring to make a sound, their nerves on edge.
As for Jiang Qing, he had slipped away right after leaving the hotel, using work as an excuse.
The driver was baffled.
What on earth had happened at the banquet to put their young mistress in such a terrible mood?
Su Hua’s light brown eyes stared at the city lights outside the window, half her face shrouded in shadow.
Her mind was consumed by the way Feng Yaya had looked at her A-Xuan.
She wasn’t afraid Feng Yaya would steal A-Xuan away—she wouldn’t give her the chance. If Feng Yaya dared to covet him, Su Hua would make her disappear, just like she had with Shen Qianqian.
Besides, Feng Yaya wasn’t even someone A-Xuan would glance at twice.
But still…
Su Hua pressed her lips together.
She hated the way other women looked at A-Xuan. When Feng Yaya had gazed at him like that, she had wanted nothing more than to gouge her eyes out.
She even fantasized about locking A-Xuan away, so no woman could ever lay eyes on him again.
Time crawled by.
Butler Wang and the driver sat frozen in their seats, their eyes glued to the hotel entrance, silently praying for Lin Xuan to emerge soon.
The suffocating tension was unbearable.
Too afraid to speak and draw Su Hua’s attention, they resorted to texting each other instead.
[Driver]: Butler Wang, what the hell happened at the banquet? Why is the young mistress like this?
[Butler Wang]: A woman took a liking to Young Master Lin.
[Driver]: Holy—! Who?! Who’s got a death wish?
Daring to set their sights on the young mistress’s man!
[Butler Wang]: Lin Li’s fiancée, Feng Yaya.
[Driver]: !!!!!
From what he knew, Shen Qianqian—another woman who had coveted Young Master Lin—had also been Lin Li’s fiancée. Why did all of Lin Li’s women end up falling for Young Master Lin?
Now he understood why the young mistress was so furious. With her possessive nature, how could she tolerate another woman eyeing A-Xuan?
[Driver]: Butler Wang, let’s just keep our heads down. If we piss off the young mistress, we’re done for.
Butler Wang nodded in agreement.
[Driver]: I wonder when Young Master Lin will come out. I miss him so much.
Only he can calm the young mistress’s rage.
The two of them stared longingly at the hotel doors, willing Lin Xuan to appear.
Another ten minutes passed.
Finally—
Lin Xuan stepped out of the hotel, dressed in a white casual outfit.
Butler Wang and the driver’s eyes lit up simultaneously.
Their savior had arrived!
The driver immediately got out and strode over to Lin Xuan.
"Young Master Lin," he said with an ingratiating smile, "you’re finally here. I’ve missed you so much."
Su Hua had just rolled down the window and overheard.
Missed him?
The driver stiffened as he felt the murderous glare from Su Hua.
How could he have forgotten? The young mistress was a walking vat of jealousy—no, an entire ocean of it.
He had just told Young Master Lin he missed him right in front of her. Was he trying to get himself killed?
Hurriedly, he opened the rear door. "Young Master Lin, please get in."
Right.
As long as he handed Young Master Lin over, the young mistress probably wouldn’t stay mad.
The moment Su Hua saw Lin Xuan, her icy aura vanished.
"Hua Bao," Lin Xuan said cautiously.
"You’re back," Su Hua replied calmly.
"Yeah," Lin Xuan nodded.

I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples.
