Butler Wang smiled with satisfaction. Young Master Lin Xuan was really getting more and more impressive.
Su Dieyi also smiled. "It seems that President Lin really dotes on his girlfriend. She must be very happy."
"She is indeed someone who invites affection," Lin Xuan said, a hint of amusement in his eyes, especially when Su Hua occasionally acted spoiled. It could melt anyone's heart.
Yu Wanqing felt a pang of sadness. She had fallen for Lin Xuan at first sight. From the moment she entered the studio, she had noticed him typing away on the keyboard, drafting contracts. His focused demeanor was incredibly attractive.
Later, during their conversations, she found that Lin Xuan was well-spoken and carried himself with a gentlemanly grace, which only deepened her infatuation.
But then, she discovered he had a girlfriend, and it was clear he loved her deeply.
The budding feelings she had just begun to nurture were crushed before they could fully bloom.
Lin Xuan walked around the studio. "I just had a look around, and the instruments here are too basic. Su Dieyi, go and buy some better ones."
He opened a worn-out sack and pulled out a large bundle of cash, estimated to be worth several million.
Su Dieyi: "..."
Yu Wanqing: "..."
Zhou Wei: "..."
They had noticed the dusty sack earlier, and it stood out starkly against Lin Xuan's designer clothes and the bodyguards accompanying him. They had been curious about what was inside, but they never expected it to be money...
Who in their right mind carries money in a sack?
Su Dieyi numbly accepted the stack of red bills.
"Also, take these," Lin Xuan said, tossing them a notebook.
Su Dieyi curiously opened it.
This... this was...
Her face showed shock. It was a collection of songs.
Su Dieyi silently sang the melodies in her head, her expression growing more and more astonished.
Every song was catchy and emotionally rich. Any one of them had the potential to become a hit.
And it wasn't just one song—it was ten!
These were songs that had been massive hits in another world, and Lin Xuan had brought them over without a second thought. After all, they were from another world, so he felt no guilt about using them.
Lin Xuan said, "Your main task now is to practice these songs. I believe they'll come in handy soon."
"I'll make you all famous."
His greatest advantage was having access to countless songs, movies, TV shows, and other content from another world.
These resources would undoubtedly help him build his own entertainment empire.
Novels and entertainment companies were just the first steps.
"Alright," Su Dieyi nodded.
After arranging everything, Lin Xuan left.
Su Dieyi watched his retreating figure, her eyes gleaming with determination.
"Zhou Wei, Wanqing, this time we'll break free from Starlight Entertainment's control. Don't lose heart; we'll only get better from here."
It was the first time since being smeared by Starlight Entertainment that she felt this kind of optimism.
She felt that the choice she made today would be the best decision she had ever made.
"Yes, Sister Dieyi. Just as you said, we'll meet at the top," Yu Wanqing nodded firmly.
Zhou Wei also felt a surge of anticipation.
"Young Master Lin, where are we heading now? Back home, or..." Butler Wang asked respectfully.
Lin Xuan: "To the cake shop."
Butler Wang's eyes lit up. Today was Miss Qin Ruoyao's birthday. Did Young Master Lin remember?
"Young Master Lin, you actually remembered Miss's birthday? She will be overjoyed," Butler Wang said with a smile.
Lin Xuan glanced at Butler Wang. He couldn't afford to forget.
Last year, he had carefully prepared a gift for Qin Ruoyao in advance, but Su Hua mistakenly thought it was for her.
When Su Hua found out the truth, she punished him severely, biting his lip until it bled and almost devouring him.
Lin Xuan entered the cake shop.
His novel royalties wouldn't be paid for a few more days, and while Su Hua had given him a black card, using her money to buy a gift felt insincere.
He decided to make a cake for Su Hua himself.
Lin Xuan had never made a cake before, so he paid the cake chef to teach him step by step.
The cake chef had other tasks to attend to, so Lin Xuan waited nearby.
He took out his phone and sent a message to Su Hua.
【Hua Bao, it's been four hours and three minutes since we parted. I miss you.】
Su Hua was in a meeting with her executives when she received the message. She had set a special notification tone for Lin Xuan's messages.
She raised her hand to interrupt the executive and took out her phone to read Lin Xuan's message.
A faint smile played on her lips.
The executive was stunned. President Su was smiling so tenderly, like a woman deeply in love... It really was as the rumors said—President Su treated her young boyfriend very differently.
Who on earth was this person who had managed to win over a workaholic like President Su?
Su Hua's gaze lingered on the words "Hua Bao" for a long time. She tapped the screen lightly and replied: 【Mm.】
Lin Xuan excitedly shared more with her: 【I didn't invest in Dream Studio. I signed them all. I'll be starting an entertainment company, a gaming company, and more. Su Hua, I'll become a man who can stand shoulder to shoulder with you.】
He wouldn't mind living off her wealth, but heaven had gifted him an incredible cheat ability. Not using it would be a sin. Besides, taking revenge himself felt much more satisfying. Most importantly, he didn't want to be a burden to Su Hua.
Even as the head of the Su family, Su Hua was often targeted and faced assassination attempts. He wanted to protect her too.
Su Hua's lips curled slightly: 【Mm.】
"Sir, it's your turn now," the cake chef said, approaching him.
【Su Hua, I have something to take care of. I'll talk to you later. Remember to come home early tonight. I'll be waiting for you.】 Lin Xuan put his phone away.
Su Hua's eyes held a faint smile as she ended the call.
"Continue," she instructed.
"Yes, President Su," the executive resumed the report.
Suddenly, Su Hua's phone buzzed with a photo. She casually opened it, only to see a person lying in a pool of blood. Su Hua froze, her eyes turning redder and redder.
"You may leave," Su Hua said, suppressing her voice. Her hands clenched tightly as she fought back the violent impulse rising within her.
She knew she was on the verge of an episode.
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? 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!"
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
