You Seduce Me

Jiang Qing said with difficulty, "Young Master Lin, President Su is as stubborn as a mule when it comes to work. How am I supposed to supervise her?"

Besides, she wouldn’t dare.

Even if she did, President Su wouldn’t listen to her anyway.

"Here’s the deal," Lin Xuan massaged his temples. "From now on, if Hua Bao doesn’t eat or rest on time, you report it to me."

Jiang Qing still looked uneasy. "Young Master Lin, isn’t this asking me to betray President Su?"

If President Su found out, her bonuses and salary would probably be docked.

Lin Xuan’s voice turned eerily calm. "If you don’t, I’ll tell Hua Bao that you tried to seduce me."

Checkmate.

Jiang Qing shuddered.

"Fine, Young Master Lin, I agree," she hastily conceded.

If Lin Xuan really told President Su that, even if she didn’t die, she’d be skinned alive.

Lin Xuan was satisfied.

"Secretary Jiang, you should’ve agreed sooner."

Hearing this, Jiang Qing shot Lin Xuan a sidelong glance.

Young Master Lin could be downright devious sometimes—better not provoke him.

After her meeting, Su Hua returned to her office and saw Jiang Qing standing not far from Lin Xuan, seemingly deep in conversation.

A scene from the novel Jiang Qing had once shown her flashed through Su Hua’s mind—the female secretary, the CEO, and the male lead’s tangled emotions.

Su Hua’s eyes narrowed dangerously.

Jiang Qing sensed the sudden chill and stiffened, turning her head to find Su Hua staring at her.

Alarm bells rang in Jiang Qing’s mind.

Why was President Su looking at her like that? What had she done?

She hadn’t done anything wrong… right?

"P-President Su," Jiang Qing greeted nervously.

Su Hua’s gaze swept over Jiang Qing from head to toe, making her squirm.

Wait—

Why did it feel like President Su was looking at her the same way she looked at Shen Qianqian?

Su Hua frowned.

Jiang Qing was already thirty—older, average-looking, with an unremarkable figure.

She was nowhere near Su Hua’s league.

Lin Xuan wouldn’t possibly be interested in her.

Su Hua’s tense expression relaxed as she finally looked away.

Jiang Qing exhaled in relief.

That glare had been terrifying. Thank goodness it was over.

"Leave," Su Hua said coolly.

"Yes, President Su." Jiang Qing bolted.

Su Hua walked straight to Lin Xuan and sat beside him, feigning casualness. "What were you and Jiang Qing talking about just now?"

Lin Xuan had no intention of telling her he’d enlisted Jiang Qing to monitor her—after all, no one liked being watched.

"Nothing much, just chatting about you," Lin Xuan replied.

"Oh? What about me?"

Su Hua’s fingers idly played with the buttons on Lin Xuan’s shirt.

Lin Xuan’s mind raced.

He had a feeling that if he didn’t come up with a convincing answer today, things would get ugly.

Got it.

"We were talking about the island—what happened after I lost consciousness," Lin Xuan said.

Su Hua’s eyes flickered.

"It’s strange. After I passed out, I woke up with no memory. Then I remembered how the leader of the Shadow Organization tried to hypnotize me."

"Under his hypnosis, my memories did return. I wondered if my amnesia was also caused by hypnosis. I was just asking Secretary Jiang if she could look into it."

Of course, Lin Xuan didn’t know that Su Hua herself had been the one to hypnotize him.

He’d just picked a random topic—completely unaware he’d hit the nail on the head.

Su Hua had erased his memories out of fear that he’d remember what happened on the island and grow to despise or fear her.

Ironically, her plan backfired.

If she hadn’t wiped his memory, he wouldn’t have forgotten her entirely and ended up chasing after Qin Ruoyao like a lovesick fool, distancing himself from Su Hua.

Su Hua clenched her fists.

She forced a smile, suppressing her unease. "A-Xuan, the past is behind us. There’s no need to bring it up again."

"Alright," Lin Xuan nodded.

He unpacked the lunch he’d brought. "It’s getting late. Let’s eat."

Su Hua glanced at the food and raised an eyebrow. "No oysters today to… replenish your energy?"

"Hua Bao, you’re on your period. What are you thinking?" Lin Xuan coughed awkwardly.

"I may be on my period, but I thought you could use this time to… build up your stamina. That way, you’ll be more… vigorous in bed." Su Hua’s breath tickled his ear.

Lin Xuan gave her a look.

Sometimes, he seriously wondered which of them was the man and which was the woman.

Damn it!

The heavens had blessed him with so many golden opportunities—why couldn’t they throw in an indestructible kidney too?

"The food’s getting cold. Let’s eat," Lin Xuan swiftly changed the subject.

"Mhm."

Su Hua’s eyes curved with amusement.

Lin Xuan picked up a pre-peeled shrimp and held it to her lips, slipping back into his habit of feeding her.

There was something satisfying about pampering his girlfriend.

After lunch, Su Hua reached for her files again, but Lin Xuan closed them.

"Hua Bao, you stayed up late last night and worked all morning. You need a nap," he insisted.

"Will you nap with me?" Su Hua gazed at him.

"Sure."

Lin Xuan agreed without hesitation.

He had nothing else to do, and since Su Hua was on her period, she couldn’t take things too far.

They lay side by side on the office restroom bed.

Suddenly, Su Hua rolled on top of him, pinning him down.

Lin Xuan: "!!!"

How could he forget?

Even on her period, Su Hua had hands—and a habit of teasing him until he was worked up, only to finish him off manually…

"A-Xuan, before we sleep, let’s do something fun."

Before he could react, Su Hua captured his lips in a deep kiss.

The kiss lasted a full ten minutes before she finally pulled away, satisfied, and settled beside him, closing her eyes.

Lin Xuan was dumbfounded.

That was it?

This wasn’t like Su Hua at all…

As Su Hua drifted off, Lin Xuan lay there, painfully aroused.

During the kiss, her hands had wandered, stoking his desire—only to leave him hanging.

Her behavior was downright irresponsible—like a heartless playgirl who took what she wanted and bailed.

Lin Xuan resigned himself to suffering in silence.

In the afternoon, while Su Hua worked on her files, Lin Xuan sat at the coffee table, scribbling something.

Goodnight, lovelies.

Thank you to Ming La, Candied Chestnut, Stargazer Chen Js, and others for the gifts.

XOXO
