Lin Xuan suddenly thought of how the guard had addressed her on the phone just now.
He called her... Secretary Jiang.
Lin Xuan finally remembered.
This woman's demeanor was very similar to Jiang Qing, the secretary by Hua Bao's side.
However, it probably wasn't her. Her voice was completely different from Secretary Jiang's.
Lin Xuan pinched the bridge of his nose, his head aching slightly.
Sure enough.
A man's intuition isn't very reliable.
He had actually made such a far-fetched connection.
Half an hour later,
Su Hua finally returned to the Night Rose.
She applied bright red lipstick, put on her mask, and appeared in the reception room where Lin Xuan was waiting.
"Gang Leader Lin, long time no see." Su Hua smiled slightly.
Lin Xuan glanced at Su Hua.
With that one glance, his brow furrowed slightly.
Why did this Night Rose Alliance Leader also seem like she hadn't rested well?
Last time she came, she was like this too.
"I was accompanying my boyfriend, so I'm a bit late. Sorry to keep you waiting, Gang Leader Lin." Su Hua gave a slight nod.
"Might I ask what brings Gang Leader Lin to see me today?" Su Hua habitually walked over and sat down next to Lin Xuan.
As soon as she sat down, Lin Xuan stood up.
"Alliance Leader Night Rose, I came here because there's something I want to discuss properly with you." Lin Xuan said coldly.
"Go ahead." Su Hua raised an eyebrow.
She wanted to know what A-Xuan had to say.
Lin Xuan began, "Regarding the matter of Xu Hui from our gang seeking you out to deal with my girlfriend, I still want to thank you for handling her for me."
Su Hua curled her lips and said, "That was a small matter. I simply can't stand people trying to be home-wreckers and meddle in other people's relationships."
Other things she wouldn't bother with, but anyone who tried to come between her and A-Xuan, she wouldn't let them off.
Hearing her words, Lin Xuan couldn't help but look at her.
Night Rose, aren't you that kind of person too?
Lin Xuan didn't want to get overly entangled with Night Rose.
He spoke directly, "My girlfriend is my bottom line. Whoever dares to hurt her, I can fight them to the death, at any cost."
This was also the reason he was in such a hurry to come here.
He was afraid Night Rose would hurt Hua Bao.
Night Rose was the number one underground gang; their strength was certainly not lacking.
If she really sent people after Hua Bao, he was worried Hua Bao would get hurt.
Su Hua raised an eyebrow and said, "Oh, so Gang Leader Lin's special visit today wasn't to express gratitude, but to issue a warning."
"Correct." Lin Xuan nodded in acknowledgment. "Regardless of whether you, Alliance Leader, have any ideas about me or not, I still have to say this: even if something happens to Hua Bao, it's impossible for me to be with you."
"And, if you dare lay a hand on Hua Bao, my Golden Dragon Gang and your Night Rose will be locked in a fight to the death."
It was only because he feared for his own safety that he was willing to negotiate peace with Night Rose.
If something happened to Hua Bao, he would have nothing left to hold him back.
He would kill the Lin family first, and then deal with Night Rose.
Moreover, with the space at his disposal, the Golden Dragon Gang might not necessarily lose to Night Rose.
A smile appeared on Su Hua's face. "Gang Leader Lin is indeed deeply devoted to his girlfriend."
Lin Xuan's brow furrowed tightly.
Why did this Night Rose seem to radiate a sense of pleasure all over?
When she first came in, she wasn't like this.
Lin Xuan nodded and said, "My relationship with my girlfriend is indeed very good. We are committed to each other, and only each other, for life."
In this life, he would cherish Hua Bao properly, not trample on her sincerity like he did in his previous life.
"Clap, clap, clap—"
Su Hua started applauding.
She stood up with a smile.
"Gang Leader Lin's feelings for your girlfriend truly move me."
"Don't worry, I won't lay a hand on your girlfriend. I still hope Night Rose and the Golden Dragon Gang can cooperate well." Su Hua said.
"Mhm."
Lin Xuan's expression softened considerably. "As long as Night Rose doesn't break the agreement and doesn't harm my girlfriend, my Golden Dragon Gang will coexist peacefully with Night Rose."
"I hope the Alliance Leader keeps her promise." Lin Xuan said.
"Farewell."
Lin Xuan was still thinking about Su Hua and didn't waste more words on her, leaving.
He needed to get back quickly and lie beside Hua Bao. If Hua Bao woke up and didn't see him, he was worried she might overthink things.
Su Hua watched Lin Xuan's departing back, the corners of her lips curling up slightly.
So A-Xuan came to Night Rose for her safety.
Happiness shimmered in Su Hua's beautiful eyes.
A-Xuan is really so good to her.
On the way back, images of Night Rose surfaced in Lin Xuan's mind.
His brow furrowed slightly.
The weariness in Night Rose's eyes, and the kiss mark on her neck...
An outrageous, bold idea once again popped into Lin Xuan's head.
Could she really be Hua Bao?
It was mainly because everything was too much of a coincidence.
Also, Hua Bao was formerly the assassin 'Ling'. With her skills and financial resources, it wasn't impossible for her to become the leader of Night Rose...
And that Secretary Jiang was also very similar to Jiang Qing.
Once the thought that Hua Bao was Night Rose emerged, it lingered in Lin Xuan's mind, unable to be dispelled.
"Drive faster." Lin Xuan ordered.
He needed to hurry back to the Golden Dragon Gang base to see if Hua Bao was in the room.
That should be enough to verify whether Hua Bao was Night Rose or not.
As soon as Lin Xuan left,
Su Hua took off her mask and instructed, "Prepare the plane for me. I'm returning to the Golden Dragon Gang base."
Jiang Qing looked puzzled. "President Su, didn't you come by car? Why suddenly think of taking a plane back?"
"Because A-Xuan will likely suspect my identity." Su Hua said.
A-Xuan is very smart. He should already be connecting me with Night Rose by now.
I must dispel his suspicions about me.
He can't know I'm Night Rose just yet.
"So, I must get back to the Golden Dragon Gang base before A-Xuan does." Su Hua said.
Jiang Qing couldn't help but ask, "President Su, why don't you let Young Master Lin know your identity? He's the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang, and you're the leader of Night Rose. Isn't that a perfect match?"
"Now is not the right time." Su Hua pursed her lips.
The identity of Night Rose has left a rather poor impression on A-Xuan.
I need to do more public service activities to improve my reputation a bit.
Also,
It's quite fun to tease A-Xuan a little using the Night Rose alias.
The corners of Su Hua's lips curled up slightly.
Jiang Qing shook her head.
Sometimes she really didn't understand the thought processes of this couple.
"Alright, President Su, I'll go make the arrangements right away."
Jiang Qing left.
Su Hua took the plane and returned to the Golden Dragon Gang base in just ten minutes.
Wang Ba looked at Su Hua in confusion. "President Su, when did you go out?"
Su Hua didn't answer, only saying, "Don't tell A-Xuan I went out."
After saying that, she walked straight back to the room.
She took off her clothes and lay back down on the bed.
After some time, Lin Xuan also returned.
Wang Ba looked at Lin Xuan in confusion.
Why didn't the boss return with President Su?
Because of Su Hua's instruction, Wang Ba didn't say anything.
