The next day.
Su Hua sat at the dining table wearing a red nightgown, scrolling through the forum of Qinghua University with a slight frown.
Her relationship with Xuan had been denied, and to make matters worse, many girls were calling Xuan their "hubby" and publicly confessing their love to him.
Su Hua's expression darkened, her aura turning fierce, but when she caught sight of the ring on her middle finger, the tension in her body dissipated.
No matter how much they liked Xuan, he would always be her man.
Still, she needed to make time to visit Qinghua University to assert her claim.
Su Hua touched the ring on her middle finger, a faint smile tugging at her lips.
Beside her, Butler Wang nodded with satisfaction.
The young lady now resembled a girl deeply in love, rather than the cold, emotionless shell she had been before.
"By the way, where is that bouquet of roses?" Su Hua asked.
"It's being well cared for in the living room," Butler Wang replied. "Don't worry, Miss. The flowers are in good condition and won't wither anytime soon."
"Prepare a separate greenhouse for them and hire a top-notch florist to take care of them. Make sure they don't die," Su Hua instructed.
"Yes, Miss," Butler Wang acknowledged.
That morning, Lin Xuan appeared to be paying attention in class, but in reality, he had entered his personal space.
He needed to quickly improve his combat skills.
Lately, he had been practicing martial arts and even firearms.
The incident with Su Hai had made him realize that being by Su Hua's side would inevitably attract enemies. He couldn't afford to hold her back.
At noon, Lin Xuan was heading back to his dorm when he reached the foot of the teaching building. There, he saw countless pots of roses arranged in the shape of a heart.
Naturally, the ever-curious Chinese students couldn't resist such a spectacle.
A crowd of students had gathered to watch, and even some professors and teachers were observing from a distance.
Lin Xuan saw it but paid little attention. He wasn't interested in gossip.
As he walked past the roses, Qin Ruoyao suddenly appeared, holding a bouquet.
"Lin Xuan," Qin Ruoyao stood before him, holding the roses.
"Wow!!!" The crowd erupted in cheers.
Lin Xuan felt a sense of foreboding.
Was Qin Ruoyao really confessing to him?
"Lin Xuan," Qin Ruoyao gazed at him deeply, "Will you be my boyfriend? Let's forget the past and start over."
Damn! She really was confessing!
Lin Xuan was speechless.
Hadn't he already made things clear with Qin Ruoyao yesterday? How could she still have the nerve to do this?
He had never realized Qin Ruoyao could be so shameless!
Wasn't she always so concerned about her image? Didn't she fear he would humiliate her in public?
"Click, click." Ye Li secretly took photos and sent them to Su Hua.
[Miss Su, this is Ye Li. Qin Ruoyao is currently confessing to Lin Xuan.]
In the Su Corporation office, Su Hua narrowed her eyes as she read the message.
Jiang Qing, noticing Su Hua's unusual expression, took the opportunity to glance at the message while pouring coffee.
Her eyes widened when she saw the content.
A confession? Qin Ruoyao was confessing to Young Master Lin?
This was bad. Very bad.
Miss Su was sure to be furious! Young Master Lin was in trouble.
But then, Jiang Qing witnessed something unbelievable. Su Hua calmly added Ye Li's number to her blacklist and tossed her phone back onto the desk.
Huh?!
Miss Su wasn't reacting at all!
"Miss Su, aren't you going to call and ask what's going on?" Jiang Qing asked curiously.
"No need," Su Hua smiled faintly. "I trust Xuan. Jiang Qing, trust is crucial in a relationship."
She hoped Xuan wouldn't disappoint her...
Jiang Qing couldn't help but wonder.
What had Lin Xuan done to make Miss Su change so drastically in just a few weeks?
At the start of the semester, hadn't Lin Xuan almost been dragged back by Miss Su because of that love letter incident?
Now, she was completely unfazed by Qin Ruoyao's confession to Lin Xuan?
Impressive! Young Master Lin was truly impressive!
Meanwhile, the crowd of students grew larger.
Previously, Lin Xuan had always been the one chasing after Qin Ruoyao, but now the tables had turned.
This was big news!
"Do you think Lin Xuan will accept Qin Ruoyao?"
"Probably. Lin Xuan always liked Qin Ruoyao. With such a grand gesture, he must be overjoyed."
"I'm not so sure. Lin Xuan hasn't been paying attention to Qin Ruoyao lately. Last time, he even got her in trouble, making her apologize in front of the whole school. It seems like he doesn't like her anymore."
"Exactly! He even clarified their relationship on the forum a few days ago."
Many of the female students were eager to see Qin Ruoyao humiliated in public.
"Lin Xuan, please be my boyfriend. I promise to treat you well and love you wholeheartedly. If you're willing, we can even get married," Qin Ruoyao said softly.
She had dressed up for the occasion, her slightly curled hair cascading down her back. She wore a white Chanel-style dress, paired with small heels, and had applied light makeup, looking both beautiful and innocent, evoking a sense of pity.
Some onlookers began to cheer loudly.
"Lin Xuan, say yes! Say yes!" they shouted, clapping their hands.
Ye Li, who was recording the scene, couldn't help but smirk. If Lin Xuan dared to agree, Miss Su would never let him off the hook!
Lin Xuan liked Qin Ruoyao so much—how could he possibly reject her?
Lin Xuan looked at Qin Ruoyao as if she were a fool.
"Qin Ruoyao, are you trying to be a homewrecker?" Lin Xuan didn't spare her any dignity.
Qin Ruoyao's face froze. She hadn't expected Lin Xuan to say such a thing.
Lin Xuan continued, "You know I have a girlfriend, yet you still insist on pursuing me. Isn't that willingly becoming a homewrecker?"
Boom!
The crowd was stunned.
They had almost forgotten that Lin Xuan had mentioned his girlfriend was very possessive and didn't like him interacting with other women.
Qin Ruoyao had been there when he said that, yet she still went ahead and confessed to him. She really was asking to be labeled a homewrecker!
Ye Li's expression turned grim.
Lin Xuan had actually rejected Qin Ruoyao! Why didn't he accept? This would have been the perfect opportunity to drive a wedge between him and Miss Su!
Lin Xuan raised his left hand, showing off his ring. "Let me make this clear once again: I have a girlfriend. Qin Ruoyao, you'd better stay away from me. I don't want my girlfriend to misunderstand."
"Lin Xuan, do you really have to humiliate me like this in front of everyone?" Qin Ruoyao's eyes welled up with tears. She had thought that Lin Xuan wouldn't want to embarrass her and would agree to her confession, but he had refused.
She had already lowered herself so much. How could Lin Xuan reject her like this? How could he?
Her pride was completely shattered because of Lin Xuan.
Qin Ruoyao grew more and more upset, tears streaming down her face as she cried pitifully.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
