Su Hua had already appeared in the reception room.
Lei Hui was about to greet Lin Xuan when Su Hua raised her hand to stop him, forcing Lei Hui to step aside.
Jiang Yutong hadn’t noticed Su Hua’s arrival yet.
As for Lin Xuan, he was so tense listening to Jiang Yutong’s words that he had no attention left to spare for anything else.
Su Hua’s aura was icy cold.
What was Jiang Yutong doing?
Was she trying to confess to Lin Xuan?
Jiang Yutong continued to entice him, "Mr. Lin, my Jiang Family has vast business interests and military-political connections. If you’re willing, we can be your backing. No one would dare bully you—you could even strut through all of Yundu City without a care."
Lin Xuan: "!!!"
The more Jiang Yutong spoke, the more he felt she had feelings for him—or perhaps she wanted to get married and saw him as a potential candidate.
Damn!
This couldn’t happen.
If Hua Bao found out, he—no, his kidneys—would be fleeing on the next train out of town.
He had to resolve this situation with Jiang Yutong as quickly as possible.
"So, Mr. Lin, I wanted to ask you… would you be willing to—" become my younger brother?
Before Jiang Yutong could finish, Lin Xuan spotted Su Hua. His face paled in shock. "Hua Bao, when did you get here?"
His mind screamed: It’s over.
Su Hua must have heard everything Jiang Yutong just said.
Getting caught in a situation where another woman was confessing to him? This was nightmare difficulty.
Lin Xuan’s brain raced as he scrambled for a solution.
No matter how he thought about it, there was no good way out.
He walked up to Su Hua.
"Hua Bao…" he called her name nervously.
Su Hua’s lips curled into a deathly smile as she leaned close to his ear. "Ah Xuan, your charm never fails, does it? Look, even the Jiang Family’s second daughter is smitten with you."
Beads of sweat formed on Lin Xuan’s forehead.
Gritting his teeth, he said, "Hua Bao, don’t misunderstand. I have zero interest in her."
"Oh?" Su Hua’s tone was frosty.
"Really!" Lin Xuan nodded frantically. "She came today to deliver an invitation—to Lin Li’s family recognition banquet. I accepted because I plan to expose Lin Li there."
He didn’t dare mention that Jiang Yutong had also offered the Jiang Family’s support to help him deal with her so-called cousin.
If Su Hua found out, she’d definitely overthink it.
"Hmph—"
Su Hua let out a cold laugh but said nothing more.
She knew Lin Xuan would never be interested in Jiang Yutong, but jealousy burned inside her uncontrollably.
While Su Hua had been arriving, Jiang Yutong stepped out to take a call, missing their entire exchange.
She had no idea the couple had completely misread her intentions.
After finishing her call, Jiang Yutong returned to her seat on the sofa.
Lin Xuan, holding Su Hua’s hand, sat across from her.
"Miss Jiang, I’ve told you before—I have a girlfriend. This is Su Hua."
"Miss Su, it’s a pleasure," Jiang Yutong greeted politely.
This was Lin Xuan’s girlfriend. If she wanted to make him her younger brother, she needed to stay on good terms with his partner.
Su Hua responded with icy indifference.
Lin Xuan spoke firmly, "Miss Jiang, my girlfriend and I are serious. Nothing will ever come between us."
"She’s my girlfriend now, and in the future, she’ll be my wife—the mother of my children."
Jiang Yutong smiled. "When you two marry, you must invite me to the wedding."
Lin Xuan frowned.
Jiang Yutong didn’t seem bothered by his commitment to Su Hua.
Did she not want to marry him after all?
What was going on?
Su Hua narrowed her eyes, scrutinizing Jiang Yutong’s expression for sincerity or pretense.
Jiang Yutong touched her face, confused. "Is something on my face? Why are you both staring at me?"
"Nothing," Lin Xuan averted his gaze.
Lei Hui entered with a fruit platter, his brow furrowing.
What was this atmosphere?
He could’ve sworn he smelled gunpowder in the air.
"President Su," he set the platter before her respectfully, "our boss specially asked me to prepare this for you. Please enjoy."
"Hua Bao, you love watermelon. Here, have some."
Lin Xuan began feeding Su Hua like doting royalty.
"Mm." Su Hua’s eyes curved as she took a bite.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yutong fidgeted uncomfortably.
The last time she met Su Hua, she’d been force-fed dog food.
Watching them now, she braced for another overdose of affection.
No.
She had to cut to the chase.
"Mr. Lin, what I meant earlier was—would you be willing to become my…" younger brother?
Before she could utter the last word, she froze, watching in shock.
Su Hua held a piece of watermelon between her lips, then pressed them to Lin Xuan’s, transferring the fruit to him.
Pulling back, she smiled sweetly. "Ah Xuan, is it sweet?"
"Very," Lin Xuan nodded.
His mind whirred.
Su Hua enjoyed intimacy but rarely displayed it publicly—unless she was marking her territory.
If he mishandled this, she’d drag him to bed again later.
Nine straight days of that had nearly broken him. One more might finish the job.
Jiang Yutong gulped.
Were they really treating her like part of the furniture?
She sipped her tea, trying to steady herself.
After a deep breath, she tried again. "Mr. Lin, I—"
Her words died as Lin Xuan cupped Su Hua’s head and kissed her deeply.
Su Hua’s eyes shimmered as she closed them, melting into the kiss.
Jiang Yutong: "!!!"
I’m full. Completely full.
Stuffed to the brim with their affection.
Her desire for a boyfriend skyrocketed again.
If she really made Lin Xuan her younger brother, she’d be subjected to this daily.
No more dog food—she couldn’t take it.

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.
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? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!! (Pure love 1v1, light-hearted, no angst, single female lead, villain, reincarnation, lackey)
