He stood up and planted his foot firmly on Lin Li's chest.
"Lin Li, I don’t have a disgusting little brother like you."
When he first returned to the Lin family from the orphanage, he had genuinely treated Lin Li as his own younger brother.
But what did he get in return?
Nothing but Lin Li’s endless schemes and betrayals. Because of Lin Li, he was despised by the Lin family, beaten and scolded—all orchestrated by Lin Li himself!
"Lin Li, no matter how much you beg, I’ll never let you off the hook." Lin Xuan’s lips curled into a cruel smirk. "Lin Li, I love watching you writhe in pain."
Rather than killing Lin Li outright, he preferred to make him suffer—to let him live a life worse than death.
Otherwise, he would’ve found a way to kill Lin Li long ago.
He wanted Lin Li to watch as he climbed to heights Lin Li could never reach.
Lin Li gritted his teeth, glaring at Lin Xuan with pure hatred.
He wished he could tear that smug look right off Lin Xuan’s face!
But right now, he was nothing but a helpless fish on the chopping block, while Lin Xuan held the knife. There was nothing he could do—Lin Xuan could do whatever he wanted to him.
Lin Xuan glanced at Older Chen and Second Chen.
The two men were kneeling on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.
Su Hua called Lin Xuan.
He had set a special ringtone for her number.
When the call came through, Lin Xuan frowned.
He couldn’t let his beloved Hua find out he was dealing with someone like this.
"Gag Lin Li. Make sure he doesn’t make a single sound," Lin Xuan ordered.
"Yes," Cheng Da and Cheng Er responded immediately, stepping forward to tightly cover Lin Li’s mouth.
Lin Xuan answered the call, his voice softening instantly. "Hua."
Cheng Da shook his head.
Their boss was such a different person around Su Hua—so gentle, so composed.
But then again, Su Hua also put on an act in front of him.
No wonder people said they were a match made in heaven.
"Xuan, are you still at the banquet?" Su Hua asked.
"Yeah, but I had a bit to drink. Feeling a little dizzy, so I stepped out to rest for a while."
"Then come home soon. I’ll be waiting for you," Su Hua said.
"Mm." Lin Xuan nodded.
Su Hua hung up.
She had been frustrated earlier, tangled in an overseas project. Whenever she felt like this, her mind would fill with thoughts of Xuan.
Hearing his voice calmed her down, and she returned to her work with renewed focus.
Jiang Qing couldn’t help but marvel inwardly.
Young Master Lin really was Su Hua’s emotional stabilizer.
They were perfect for each other—absolutely meant to be.
Tsk.
When Lin Xuan wasn’t around, Su Hua actually became more diligent—rushing to meetings, burying herself in work.
Truly, a man’s charm could be a woman’s downfall.
Meanwhile, Lin Li listened to Lin Xuan’s words, a plan forming in his mind.
So Lin Xuan was afraid of Su Hua seeing this vicious side of him.
That meant Su Hua had no idea what Lin Xuan was really like.
If he could expose Lin Xuan’s cruelty, maybe Su Hua would abandon him.
Lin Xuan ended the call.
Hua was waiting for him at home, so he needed to wrap things up with Lin Li quickly. Besides, the reporters would be arriving soon.
He looked at Lin Li and smirked coldly.
Lin Li’s heart pounded violently—fear and dread coursing through him.
"Cheng Da, Cheng Er, feed these two men two packets of powder each," Lin Xuan commanded.
Older Chen and Second Chen shuddered.
This was a potent aphrodisiac meant for livestock—one packet was unbearable, let alone two.
With two, their bodies might just explode.
Older Chen stammered, "M-Mr. Lin—no, Young Master Lin—could you maybe give us less? Or none at all? We’ll do whatever you say! We’ll take care of Lin Li, no problem!"
His gaze slid toward Lin Li.
The guy was delicate, with fair skin and delicate features—especially now that he was a eunuch.
Perfect for the role of a submissive.
It’d be a new experience, something they hadn’t tried before.
Lin Xuan raised a brow. "Do you really think you’re in a position to bargain?"
Older Chen immediately shut his mouth.
Fine. Taking the drugs was better than dying.
"I’ll take it myself. No need to trouble you," Older Chen said.
"Good. Here."
Cheng Da handed him the powder.
Older Chen clenched his teeth, closed his eyes, and swallowed it all.
Just as Second Chen was about to do the same—
"Wait." Cheng Da stopped him.
"Young Master, there are four packets here. If they each take two, that’s all of it. Did you forget someone’s share?" Cheng Da pointed out.
"Lin Li doesn’t need any," Lin Xuan said.
"Why?" Cheng Er asked, curious.
Lin Xuan smirked. "Because this drug clouds the mind. I want Lin Li to experience every second of this—fully conscious."
Cheng Da: "…"
Cheng Er: "…"
Damn.
Their boss was ruthless.
Anyone who crossed him was in for a world of suffering.
Cheng Da turned to Second Chen. "You’re taking both packets."
"I’ll do it, I’ll do it!"
Like Older Chen, Second Chen didn’t dare resist. He tipped his head back and swallowed the powder.
Lin Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
Good. At least these two knew how to follow orders.
As time passed, Older Chen and Second Chen’s faces grew flushed.
"So hot… so hot…"
They tugged at their clothes, their eyes glazing over with lust.
Lin Li’s terror multiplied infinitely.
He scrambled up from the ground and threw himself at Lin Xuan’s feet.
"Lin Xuan, just kill me!" he begged.
He’d rather die than endure what was coming.
"Not happening," Lin Xuan chuckled. "Murder is illegal. I don’t break the law."
Cheng Da and Cheng Er nearly rolled their eyes into the back of their skulls.
Boss, they thought, you’ve killed plenty of people.
Sometimes, their boss had no shame.
"Lin Li, enjoy yourself."
Lin Xuan turned and ordered, "Untie him. The ropes are just in the way."
"Yes."
Cheng Da and Cheng Er quickly loosened the bindings, then followed Lin Xuan toward the door.
Lin Li tried to bolt for freedom, but before he could take more than a few steps, Older Chen and Second Chen—now completely consumed by the drugs—grabbed his legs and dragged him back.
All Lin Li could do was watch helplessly as the door slammed shut.
"NO!"
His scream was raw, desperate, as the reality of his fate closed in around him.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
