The atmosphere was way too off.
If things continued like this, his kidneys would definitely flee again by driving off on their own.
After transforming into "Lin Dry" (exhausted state), he had just recovered from sleeping over a dozen hours—he really didn’t want to turn back into "Lin Dry" so soon!
Damn it!
As a grown man, he sometimes despised himself for being so hesitant in situations like this.
But if he forced himself to tough it out, his kidneys genuinely couldn’t take it.
"What’s wrong? Does A-Xuan dislike me? Are you refusing to take a bath with me?"
Su Hua’s fingers traced teasingly over Lin Xuan’s chest through his damp clothes.
Lin Xuan: "..."
Here we go again!
How was he supposed to answer that?
Say he disliked it? If he dared, it would mean he was asking to be locked in a dark room.
Say he didn’t dislike it?
Then he’d have no way to refuse bathing with Hua Bao.
"A-Xuan, let’s bathe together, okay?" Su Hua’s red lips brushed against Lin Xuan’s earlobe as she whispered seductively in the steamy air.
Without waiting for his answer, she began unbuttoning his shirt.
"Hua Bao, wait—" Lin Xuan caught her hand. "I don’t dislike you, I just have something urgent to take care of."
"Oh? And what might that be?"
Su Hua’s slender, jade-like fingers continued undoing his buttons one by one.
Lin Xuan scrambled for an excuse. "Recently, Starlight Group copied my company’s game exactly and launched it. I planted a virus in their system—I need to activate it so their entire game crashes."
Originally, he planned to trigger it once they started monetizing skins and heroes.
But doing it a little earlier wouldn’t hurt.
"That can wait." Su Hua smirked. "If you want their game to crash, I can have Su Corporation’s team handle it."
Lin Xuan choked.
How could he forget? Su Corporation employed a whole team of international computer experts. Working together, they could easily sabotage Starlight Group’s game without leaving a trace.
Lin Xuan gave up resisting. "Actually… it’s not that urgent. Hua Bao, I can deal with it later."
Su Hua’s lips curled.
"In that case…" She pressed her lips to his. "We can ‘bathe’ together now."
Before long, the sound of running water filled the bathroom—along with far more intimate noises.
From the bathroom to the bedroom, then the study, they indulged in each other endlessly.
By 2 a.m. the next day, the air still carried a sweet, lingering warmth.
Lin Xuan lay with Su Hua draped over him, stroking her back with a look of utter resignation.
Did Hua Bao learn all these seductive tricks from those books?
What exactly were those books teaching her?
Her techniques were so potent that even a celibate monk wouldn’t stand a chance.
"A-Xuan, how was it?" Su Hua’s face was still flushed, her eyes rimmed red and glistening as if she’d been crying.
Fresh from their passion, she looked like a soul-stealing enchantress—utterly mesmerizing.
"It was… fine." Lin Xuan couldn’t bring himself to lie.
Su Hua smiled.
Those books really taught her well. Since A-Xuan liked it, she’d have to study more.
She wanted to consume him so completely that he’d have no energy left for other women… or even their unborn child.
Unborn child: ???
Mom, how dare you put me in the same category as those women trying to seduce Dad! I’m your child, not your love rival!
By morning, Lin Xuan was the first to rise again, leaving Su Hua asleep in bed.
With classes scheduled today, he used it as an excuse to escape her clutches.
This was the last semester of his senior year—after this, Lin Xuan would graduate.
By now, he had already become a legend at Shangqing University.
When Lin Xuan pulled up in his iconic Koenigsegg, students couldn’t help but stare.
"Is that a Koenigsegg?" they whispered.
"Yep, a Koenigsegg One:1. Worth over 10 million, and you can’t even buy one just by having the money."
"Tch, what a waste. Just brand hype. Spending that much on a car? Only fools with too much cash would do that," one newcomer sneered, jealousy dripping from his voice.
"You must be a transfer student. Don’t you know? This was a gift from CEO Su to Lin Xuan. And CEO Su—who do you think she is? The head of the world’s top corporation. For her, 10 million is like pocket change to regular folks."
The speaker couldn’t hide his envy.
What kind of magic did Lin Xuan use to make CEO Su adore him so much?
Back then, everyone was certain Su Hua was just toying with him. Yet here they were, over a year later, still going strong.
And Lin Xuan had only grown more deserving of her.
A computer genius, he’d founded his own company, with its literature and entertainment divisions now leading the industry.
Especially "Tiger Voice"—the top short-video platform in the country, integrating shopping, live streams, and ads.
The revenue from these ventures had Tianmu Group rolling in profits.
And Lin Xuan was only 22!
"Wait, CEO Su? As in… Su Corporation? The global giant?" The transfer student’s eyes bulged.
Even he had heard of the infamous CEO Su—a stunning but ruthless young woman known for her zero tolerance for distractions, especially men.
Rumors claimed she cared only for business, never romance.
Yet she had a boyfriend?!
"Just who is this guy to win over the CEO of Su Corporation?" the transfer student muttered in disbelief.
The other student grinned mysteriously. "Stick around. You’ll see."
Meanwhile, female students erupted into screams at the sight of Lin Xuan’s car.
"Ahhh! It’s Lin Xuan! My crush! He’s here! AHHH!"
"What lucky day is this? Lin Xuan actually came to campus, and I got to see him! I’m buying a lottery ticket after class—today’s my day!"
Every girl froze in place, eyes locked on the Koenigsegg.
Lin Xuan braked and stepped out.
"AHHH—!"
Another wave of shrieks tore through the crowd.
"Has anyone else noticed? Lin Xuan got even hotter since the last time we saw him!"
"Right?! So handsome it makes my heart race! I need to take every chance to see him now. Once he graduates, we might never get to see him again!"
The girls swooned unabashedly.
Humans are visual creatures, and Lin Xuan outshone even male celebrities. Combined with his brilliance, he’d effortlessly become the campus heartthrob.
Many girls secretly idolized him or treated him as their dream crush.
"What’s going on? Why are these girls so worked up?" A bespectacled professor frowned in confusion.

Holding firm to the belief that "women only slow down my blade," he stubbornly maintained his virginity even after decades in the Sect of Dual Cultivation.

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?

. 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!"
