Su Hua pushed the door open and walked straight in.
Lin Xuan had just finished using the restroom and stepped out of the bathroom.
As soon as he emerged, a woman dressed in a revealing nightgown lunged at him.
Lin Xuan didn’t get a clear look at her face.
Instinctively, he raised his foot and kicked her squarely in the chest.
"Ah—!"
The woman let out a delicate cry and collapsed onto the floor.
"Gang Leader," she whimpered, biting her lip as she gazed up at Lin Xuan with pitiful eyes.
Lin Xuan frowned deeply.
Without a word, he grabbed the blanket from the bed and flung it over her.
"Get out of my room," he said coldly.
"Gang Leader," the woman protested, pushing the blanket aside and letting her alluring figure be exposed once more.
She was a member of the Golden Dragon Gang, often relying on her beauty and physique to infiltrate rival gangs or seduce targets as an undercover operative.
She had mastered countless techniques for seducing men—none had ever resisted her charms.
For five years, she had carried out missions like this, never once developing feelings for any of the men she manipulated. To her, they were all the same—shallow and predictable.
But she had fallen for the Gang Leader.
His combat prowess, his ruthless efficiency—everything about him captivated her.
Every move he made set her heart racing.
She had been in love with him for half a year.
Yet, during that time, Lin Xuan rarely visited the Golden Dragon Gang. And whenever he did, she was usually away on assignments.
Opportunities to see him were scarce.
Only now, after Second-in-Command Wang Ba recalled all field operatives, did she finally get her chance.
Who knew when the next opportunity would come?
She couldn’t waste this one.
Liang Yaxia knelt before Lin Xuan.
From his angle, if he glanced down, he would have an unobstructed view of her cleavage.
This trick had never failed her before.
Surely the Gang Leader would be tempted.
But Lin Xuan remained with his back turned, completely oblivious.
"Gang Leader," Liang Xiaoxia murmured, biting her lip. "I’ve been an orphan since childhood, alone with no family. But when I see you… I finally feel like I belong somewhere."
Just then, Su Hua entered and saw the woman trying to throw herself at Lin Xuan.
Her eyes turned icy as she took in the scene.
How dare this woman try to steal her man? She was practically begging for death.
Neither Lin Xuan nor Liang Xiaoxia noticed the third person in the room.
Lin Xuan pulled out his phone, his voice frosty. "Send two men to my room."
Even through the phone, Wang Ba could sense the chilling anger in his leader’s tone. He frowned.
What the hell had happened?
Why did the Gang Leader sound so furious?
And why did he need two men sent over?
A sense of unease settled in Wang Ba’s chest.
He decided to go himself.
"Gang Leader," Liang Xiaoxia pleaded, still on her knees, her eyes filled with devotion. "I’ve loved you for half a year. My feelings are real."
Lin Xuan didn’t turn around. "I have a girlfriend," he said coldly.
"Gang Leader, I know."
Everyone in the gang knew.
She knew she shouldn’t interfere.
But her love for him was too overwhelming—she couldn’t control it.
"Gang Leader, I know how much you love your girlfriend. But I promise, I won’t disrupt your relationship."
"I’m willing to be your secret lover. I’ll never appear in front of her. She’ll never even know I exist."
Of course, she wasn’t content with just being a hidden mistress.
But this was her only way to get close to him.
A temporary strategy.
With her skills, looks, and body, she was confident she could make him fall for her. Then, she’d replace that woman by his side.
"Gang Leader, even though my missions often involve seducing men, I’m still pure. None of them have ever touched me."
Lin Xuan’s voice was like ice. "I don’t need a secret lover."
"If you don’t want this to get ugly, get out of my room now."
What a joke!
Su Hua was far too perceptive. If he so much as entertained another woman, she’d notice immediately.
He had no intention of being locked up in Night Garden again.
Besides, Su Hua was enough for him. After what happened with Qin Ruoyao, he couldn’t bring himself to trust another woman.
The farther he stayed from them, the safer he’d be.
"Gang Leader…" Liang Xiaoxia’s heart ached at his coldness.
She had been an orphan, bullied and alone her whole life.
Finally, she had found someone she truly loved—yet he treated her like this.
Was she destined to be unloved forever?
No!
She refused to accept that.
Liang Xiaoxia still hadn’t given up. "Gang Leader, please, have mercy on me."
Tears streamed down her face, making her look pitiful and fragile.
"Gang Leader, just let me be your woman, okay? I promise I’ll obey you in everything."
Lin Xuan remained unmoved. "I could never betray my girlfriend."
"Gang Leader," Liang Xiaoxia bit her lip, unable to hold back her words. "What’s so great about a weak, delicate woman who’s only fit to be a caged canary? She’ll only hold you back."
Liang Xiaoxia had found out that Lin Xuan’s girlfriend ran a company.
A woman who ran a business surely had no combat skills.
The gang leader was the head of the second-largest underground organization, the Golden Dragon Gang, and was constantly under scrutiny.
Sooner or later, more and more people would target him.
If others discovered he had such a girlfriend and traced her identity,
they would undoubtedly capture her to use as leverage against him.
At that point, the gang leader’s safety would be compromised.
Only a woman like her—skilled in combat and beautiful—was truly worthy of standing by his side.
Lin Xuan replied, "No, she’s wonderful. She’s the best woman in this world."
Hearing this,
Su Hua’s lips curled slightly, and the cold aura around her dissipated a little.
"Gang Leader, what must I do for you to even glance my way?" Liang Xiaoxia sobbed.
She knew
that if she failed this time, she would never get another chance to get close to him again.
Even though Lin Xuan had made his stance crystal clear, she still refused to give up.

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
