Su Hua crossed her arms and leaned against the tree trunk, watching Chen Ling’s furious outburst without a flicker of emotion, as if observing a ridiculous clown.
Only after Chen Ling finished did Su Hua let out a low chuckle.
"Tired of me? Planning to discard me?" Su Hua curled her lips. "You’ll be waiting forever for that."
She would use every trick in the book to make Lin Xuan crave her body beyond reason.
Whatever type of girlfriend Lin Xuan wanted—innocent, seductive, delicate, or domineering—she could play the part flawlessly.
Lin Xuan would never grow tired of her.
And if one day he ever tried to leave her? She’d never let him go.
Lin Xuan would always belong to her, and her alone.
No other woman would ever lay a finger on him.
"Hmph," Chen Ling sneered. "Don’t get too full of yourself. Right now, Lin Xuan might be obsessed with you, but once he loses interest, he won’t spare you another thought."
Chen Ling firmly believed that mere physical beauty could only hold a man’s attention for so long.
Only a woman with true intellect and depth could earn a man’s lasting affection.
She had studied at Yundu University and was now pursuing her master’s at Shangqing University.
A woman of her caliber was the only one truly worthy of Lin Xuan.
"In Lin Xuan’s eyes, you’re nothing more than a disposable fling," Chen Ling said coldly. "And let’s not forget—my father raised him. As his foster sister, I’ll always hold a more important place in his heart than you ever could."
"If you know what’s good for you, you’ll walk away from Lin Xuan right now," Chen Ling declared, lifting her chin arrogantly. "Do it now, and I might let you off easy. Otherwise…"
Her face darkened. "I’ll make sure you regret ever clinging to him."
Lin Xuan was the CEO of Tianmu Group. Once she became his wife, she’d have the power to crush this bitch however she pleased.
Su Hua remained unfazed.
Chen Ling hated that about her.
The calmer Su Hua was, the more it made Chen Ling feel like a fool.
After a long pause, Su Hua suddenly laughed softly.
"I’ll never leave Lin Xuan."
Her gaze flickered toward Lin Xuan’s approaching figure, a glint of cunning flashing in her eyes.
And she’d make sure Lin Xuan grew to despise Chen Ling too.
"I know," Su Hua murmured, stepping closer to Chen Ling. "You must be so jealous that I’m Lin Xuan’s girlfriend. He’s so tender with me—feeding me, holding me at night, kissing me… and doing all those wonderfully intimate things couples do."
"Things you’ll never experience."
Chen Ling, spoiled rotten by her father, had a notoriously short temper. Su Hua’s words ignited her fury.
"You shameless slut!" Chen Ling spat, her face twisted in rage. "How dare you flaunt yourself in front of me?"
"You’re asking for a beating!"
She raised her hand, ready to slap Su Hua.
Su Hua smirked but didn’t move.
Lin Xuan’s eyes widened as he saw Chen Ling’s hand swing down. He lunged forward, catching her wrist just in time.
Su Hua’s lips pressed into a thin line as she stared at Lin Xuan’s grip on another woman’s arm.
Chen Ling gasped. "Lin Xuan! What are you doing here?"
Then it hit her—Su Hua’s sudden provocative words, her unshaken composure.
She wasn’t stupid. She saw the trap now.
"You tricked me!" Chen Ling snarled, glaring at Su Hua.
This bitch had seen Lin Xuan coming and deliberately provoked her, knowing she’d lose control. All to make her look bad in front of him.
Damn her!
Lin Xuan shoved Chen Ling’s hand away and immediately checked Su Hua for injuries. Only after confirming she was unharmed did he relax.
He pulled Su Hua close, his expression icy as he turned to Chen Ling.
Chen Ling panicked. "Lin Xuan, it’s not what you think! She—"
She pointed at Su Hua. "She baited me! She knew exactly what to say to make me lose my temper!"
Su Hua shook her head gently. "Lin Xuan, don’t blame her. Maybe I said something wrong and upset her."
The hidden bodyguards watching from the shadows: "…"
Was this white lotus act really their boss?
Damn.
She’d do anything for Lin Xuan.
Chen Ling recognized the manipulative tactic instantly.
"Lin Xuan, she’s playing the victim!" she cried. "She’s pretending to defend me, but she’s just making you distrust me even more! Don’t fall for it!"
"You expect me to believe you over my own girlfriend?" Lin Xuan’s voice was steel.
As if Su Hua would ever stoop to such cheap tricks.
A tear rolled down Chen Ling’s cheek, her face a picture of injustice.
Lin Xuan actually trusted that woman over her?
Now she understood how this slut had snared him—she was a master manipulator.
Everyone knew white lotus types were experts at seducing men.
Chen Hong, drawn by the commotion, hurried over.
"What’s going on here?" he demanded.
Chen Ling rushed to her father’s side, sniffling. "Dad, it’s her! She provoked me on purpose, tricked me into hitting her—and I didn’t even land a blow!"
"She put on this helpless act in front of Lin Xuan so he’d take her side and think badly of me!"
If Lin Xuan wouldn’t stand up for her, surely her doting father would.
"Dad, you have to expose her!" Chen Ling pleaded.
To her shock, Chen Hong frowned and snapped, "Apologize to Lin Xuan’s girlfriend right now."
"Me?!" Chen Ling pointed at herself, then at Su Hua. "Apologize to her?!"
Her face twisted in disbelief.
"Dad, this wasn’t my fault! Why should I apologize?"
"Because you were in the wrong!" Chen Hong said coldly.
"Dad, I didn’t do anything! How can you take her side over your own daughter?" Chen Ling’s eyes welled with tears.
"Obviously," Chen Hong replied without hesitation.
He knew his daughter’s spoiled, volatile nature. Lin Xuan’s girlfriend, on the other hand, carried herself with quiet dignity.
There was no way a woman like her would scheme the way Chen Ling claimed.
Goodnight, everyone!
