Lin Xuan said, "Brother Lei, the short video app has been developed. You’ll need to hire some technical staff to maintain it."
"As for the company funds, I’ll transfer them to you tomorrow. You can start assembling a team as soon as possible and begin shooting short dramas."
Once they had more money, he planned to hire a technical team to produce animations, including children’s cartoons like *Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf*.
They would dominate the TV drama industry.
On another note, the novels on his app were mostly long-form hits, which weren’t suitable for short dramas. It seemed he’d have to find time to write some short stories specifically tailored for short dramas.
After leaving, Lin Xuan went to the company to pick up Su Hua.
"Hello, Young Master Lin."
"Young Master Lin."
The employees greeted Lin Xuan warmly.
After all, he was the future husband of their CEO. Who wouldn’t want to cozy up to him?
When Lin Xuan arrived at the CEO’s office, the door was tightly shut.
He frowned.
"Young Master Lin, are you here to see CEO Su?" Shao Xingfan’s tone was less than friendly.
Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow. "Do you have a problem with me?"
Shao Xingfan forced a smile. "Of course not. You’re the one who holds CEO Su’s heart. How could I dare to cross you?"
"Good that you know your place," Lin Xuan said, patting Shao Xingfan’s shoulder. "Even if you’re unhappy with me, you’ll just have to suck it up. Be careful, or I might complain to Hua Bao. Who do you think she’ll side with?"
Shao Xingfan’s face darkened instantly.
He had just been threatened by Lin Xuan, and there was nothing he could do about it.
Damn it!
This was so frustrating!
Lin Xuan left with a smile and called Jiang Qing.
Jiang Qing answered, "CEO Su is in a meeting discussing a collaboration."
Lin Xuan said, "Send me the location. I’ll go pick her up."
"Of course, Young Master Lin." After sending the location, Jiang Qing entered the hotel suite.
"CEO Su," Jiang Qing whispered, "Young Master Lin said he’s coming to pick you up."
Su Hua’s hand, holding a wine glass, paused.
She remembered the last time she had returned home after a meeting, having had a few drinks. Lin Xuan had told her to drink less.
Su Hua put down the glass.
"Secretary Jiang, do I smell strongly of alcohol?"
"Not at all," Jiang Qing lied through her teeth.
"That’s good," Su Hua sighed in relief.
Jiang Qing was puzzled. CEO Su seemed afraid of letting Young Master Lin know she had been drinking. Was this the legendary "husband management"?
After finalizing the details with the other company, Su Hua signed the contract.
"Pleasure doing business," Su Hua nodded.
Mr. Wang, knowing Su Hua disliked shaking hands with anyone, didn’t extend his hand but instead gave a slight bow. "CEO Su, pleasure doing business."
"CEO Su, are you heading back? Let me escort you downstairs."
"No need," Su Hua smiled warmly. "My boyfriend is coming to pick me up."
Mr. Wang’s eyes widened.
Holy crap!
CEO Su has a boyfriend!
This was big news!
And the way she talked about him—completely like a lovestruck woman!
Who would have thought that the decisive and formidable CEO Su would turn into such a softie when it came to her boyfriend?
Cough.
"CEO Su, your boyfriend must be quite exceptional," Mr. Wang said, noticing Su Hua’s fondness for him.
"Yes, he’s the best," Su Hua replied with a nod.
Jiang Qing glanced at the ceiling.
CEO Su, are you sure about that? Is he really that amazing?
Well, love really does blind people.
"CEO Su, I’ll take my leave now."
Not long after Mr. Wang left, the alcohol began to take effect. Su Hua’s eyes grew hazy.
Jiang Qing noticed and thought to herself,
CEO Su is drunk!
Su Hua enjoyed drinking, but after six glasses, she would seem fine at first, only to get drunk later.
Usually, Jiang Qing kept an eye on her, but it seemed Su Hua had drunk a bit more while she was on the phone with Lin Xuan.
Jiang Qing helped Su Hua out of the suite.
As they walked down the hallway, a wealthy young man, also slightly drunk, spotted Su Hua and was immediately captivated.
This woman was stunning!
He had never seen anyone so beautiful—more so than any celebrity in the entertainment industry!
And her figure was absolutely perfect!
Those long, fair legs… and the curves hidden beneath her blouse…
The young man swallowed hard.
This woman—he had to have her!
The young man, along with his two buddies, blocked Su Hua’s path.
"What are you doing? Move aside!" Jiang Qing demanded sternly.
"Move aside? If you serve me well, I’ll let you go," the young man said, leering at Su Hua.
"Come with me, and I’ll make sure you live a life of luxury."
"Boss," one of his lackeys whispered, "Maybe we should back off. What if she’s someone important?"
"Someone important? Have you ever seen her before?" the young man retorted.
The lackey studied Su Hua for a moment and shook his head.
True, he had never seen her before.
"Listen," the young man slurred, pointing at Su Hua, "She’s just here to seduce men, trying to climb her way into high society. I’m the young master of Huangguang Group. I *am* high society."
"Sweetheart, if you want to rise to the top, why not serve me?" the young man said with a grin.
As he spoke, he reached out toward Su Hua’s chest.
Jiang Qing’s eyes sharpened, ready to intervene, but before she could, Su Hua kicked the young man, sending him flying.
Jiang Qing stared at Su Hua, who now radiated an intimidating aura, and took a step back.
When Su Hua was drunk, she was usually calm—unless someone provoked her. Then, she became a force of nature. It was best not to get in her way.
Jiang Qing silently lit a metaphorical candle for the three men.
Provoking a drunk Su Hua? They were asking for trouble!
The young man, now sprawled on the floor, was wide awake.
He glared at Su Hua, furious. "You bitch! How dare you hit me!"
"You two, grab her! I’m going to make her pay!"
No matter what, he was determined to have her tonight!
The two lackeys, thinking Su Hua was just a delicate woman, rolled up their sleeves and approached her.
But Su Hua grabbed each of them by the shoulders.
*Thud!* Their heads collided.
Then, she kicked them in the stomach, sending them flying several meters before they hit the ground with a heavy thud.
Su Hua exuded a menacing aura, her eyes gleaming with the excitement of a predator spotting its prey.
She licked her lips and slowly advanced toward the young man.
Terror surged through him. His two lackeys were black belts in taekwondo, yet they had been effortlessly tossed aside like ragdolls.
Any thoughts of beauty were gone—all he wanted now was to escape!
The young man scrambled to his feet and bolted toward the stairwell.
Su Hua narrowed her eyes.
Did he really think he could escape her?
With a *crack*, Su Hua tore off a stone ball from the railing and hurled it at the young man’s knee. It struck him, and he collapsed to the ground.
Su Hua, like a demoness rising from hell, slowly walked toward 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.
