He had played around with plenty of women in the entertainment industry, but this one—he had truly never seen before.
With looks like hers, if he had encountered her before, there was no way he wouldn’t remember.
Young Master Chen stroked his chin, speculating, "Dressed like that, I bet she’s here to accompany some man."
"Come on, let’s go meet her."
Young Master Liang pulled him back, uneasy. "Young Master Chen, her aura seems refined—she might be the daughter of some wealthy family. Until we know her background, we shouldn’t provoke her."
"What’s there to fear?" Young Master Chen shook off his hand. "I’ve never seen her in high society circles. What kind of status could she possibly have?"
No matter what, he was determined to have her today.
"Hey beautiful, where are you headed? Let me take you there." Young Master Chen blocked Su Hua’s path, grinning.
Su Hua’s face was icy. "Move."
"Oho, a feisty one. I like that." Su Hua was breathtakingly beautiful, and Young Master Chen couldn’t tear his eyes away.
"Let’s get acquainted. My father is the chairman of Huaheng Investment—a publicly listed company worth billions."
He extended his hand toward Su Hua.
She frowned, making no move to shake it.
Young Master Chen smirked. "Ditch your sugar daddy and come with me, yeah? I’ll make sure you live in luxury."
As soon as he finished speaking, several black-suited, sunglasses-wearing bodyguards entered the hotel.
Young Master Chen reached out to grab Su Hua’s shoulder—
The bodyguards swiftly intercepted, seizing his wrist.
Su Hua coldly ordered, "Break his hand."
"Yes."
Without another word, Su Hua stepped into the elevator, heading for the floor where Jiang Yutong and Lin Xuan were meeting.
Downstairs, the bodyguards twisted Young Master Chen’s arm.
"Aaaah—!" A bloodcurdling scream echoed through the lobby.
"Young Master!" His own bodyguards rushed over in a panic.
"Get them! Break their arms and legs!" Young Master Chen snarled through gritted teeth.
"Yes!"
His bodyguards swung their fists at Su Hua’s men—but hers were elites, battle-hardened and ruthless. Within moments, Young Master Chen’s men were subdued, groaning on the floor.
Su Hua’s bodyguards then dragged him away, ignoring his terrified protests.
Some time later, he was dumped at the gates of the Chen family villa.
"My hand… my hand!" Young Master Chen clutched his wrist, face twisted in agony.
Su Hua’s men watched from a distance, shaking their heads.
Daring to approach Miss Su? That was just asking for death.
From beginning to end, her heart belonged only to Young Master Lin. Any other man who tried to get close would regret it.
Meanwhile, Su Hua arrived outside the private dining room.
"This area is occupied. No entry," Jiang Yutong’s bodyguard blocked her path.
Cheng Er glared. "This is our young master’s girlfriend. What’s there to stop her?"
The bodyguard frowned.
So Young Master Lin had a girlfriend. He’d assumed the man was single. Miss Jiang seemed quite taken with him—looked like she’d fallen for him before even getting a chance.
Sigh.
Young Master Lin was taken. Miss Jiang’s love story ended before it even began.
Recognizing Su Hua’s status, the bodyguard stepped aside without further resistance.
Inside the room—
Jiang Yutong had been staring at Lin Xuan for a long while, making him increasingly uneasy under her gaze.
What was that look about?
Did she… have feelings for him?
No—it didn’t seem like the way someone looked at a lover.
Lin Xuan frowned, trying to decipher Jiang Yutong’s intentions.
"Mr. Lin, may I ask—" Jiang Yutong began, only for the door to swing open.
A stunning woman walked in.
Jiang Yutong’s breath caught.
She had never seen someone so breathtakingly beautiful—even as a woman, she couldn’t help but stare.
Lin Xuan, noticing her distraction, turned to look as well.
At the sight of Su Hua, he froze.
He had never seen Hua Bao dressed like this before—her makeup, her aura, completely transformed.
Every movement exuded queenly dominance, yet with an alluring charm beneath.
Jiang Yutong recovered first. "Miss, are you in the wrong room?"
"No mistake here."
Su Hua strode straight to Lin Xuan’s side and sat down.
"Hua Bao, what are you doing here?" Lin Xuan asked, puzzled. He remembered she had a packed schedule today—why was she at the hotel?
Su Hua leaned in, her crimson lips brushing his ear. "I’m here to catch you cheating, of course."
"Cough—!" Lin Xuan choked on his water, coughing violently.
He was here purely for business with Jiang Yutong—hadn’t Hua Bao overheard their call last night? Why was she accusing him now?
"Too bad," Su Hua sighed dramatically. "No cheating to catch."
Her tone was almost… disappointed.
A thought flashed through Lin Xuan’s mind—
Was she upset because she couldn’t lock him up in her infamous "dark room"?
He shuddered.
If he ever truly betrayed her, Hua Bao would absolutely imprison him there for life.
Jiang Yutong listened to their exchange, surprised.
So this was Lin Xuan’s girlfriend.
Her demeanor suggested a privileged background.
Su Hua smiled. "A Xuan, aren’t you going to introduce me to this lady?"
Lin Xuan took a deep breath, steadying himself. "Hua Bao, this is my business partner—Jiang Yutong, CEO of Jiangtong Cosmetics Company."
Jiang Yutong extended a hand politely. "You must be Mr. Lin’s girlfriend. He’s mentioned you. I’m Jiang Yutong."
Su Hua accepted the handshake. "Su Hua."
Su Hua?
Jiang Yutong’s brow furrowed.
The name sounded familiar—had she heard it somewhere before?
And the way this woman looked at her… there was unmistakable hostility. Had she somehow offended her?
Before she could dwell on it, Lin Xuan cleared his throat.
"Uh—Hua Bao, Jiang Yutong and I have finished discussing business. We can head back now."
"No rush." Su Hua’s lips curled. "There’s still so much food untouched. Waste not, don’t you think?"
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
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?
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)
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. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
