Lin Xuan asked, "Has Hua Bao gone out?"
Wang Ba, remembering Su Hua's instructions, pretended to be clueless. "Hasn't President Su been in the room the whole time?"
"Hmm."
Lin Xuan nodded.
He returned to the room door, pushed it open, and immediately saw Su Hua lying quietly on the bed, fast asleep.
Lin Xuan's tightly furrowed brows relaxed.
Hua Bao had been staying in the Golden Dragon Gang headquarters all along, never left.
If Hua Bao were the Night Rose, she couldn't possibly be here right now.
Besides, if Hua Bao were the Night Rose, given how much she loved him—even willing to die for him—how could she possibly flirt with other men?
He must have been crazy to even associate Hua Bao with the Night Rose.
Lin Xuan changed into pajamas and lay down on the bed.
As soon as he got into bed, Su Hua on the bed sensed it. She rolled over to Lin Xuan's side, wrapping one arm tightly around his waist in a dependent manner.
"A-Xuan, where did you go just now?" Su Hua murmured sleepily.
Lin Xuan replied, "It was nothing. I just went to handle some work matters. Hua Bao, let's go back to sleep."
"Okay," Su Hua mumbled with a nod.
Lin Xuan also closed his eyes.
Soon, even breathing sounds came from beside him.
Clearly, Lin Xuan had fallen asleep.
Su Hua opened her eyes.
Her beautiful gaze fixed on Lin Xuan's sleeping face.
Every part of her A-Xuan truly aligned perfectly with her aesthetic ideals.
In the past, she never dared to hope that A-Xuan would fall in love with her; she only wished his attitude towards her wouldn't be so harsh.
Unexpectedly, one day, A-Xuan truly came to like her, and even consciously kept his distance from other women.
How wonderful.
Su Hua watched Lin Xuan for who knows how long.
Her red lips approached Lin Xuan's.
She planted a kiss on them.
"A-Xuan, I love you."
After doing this, Su Hua finally closed her eyes contentedly in Lin Xuan's arms.
The two woke up again six hours later.
Wang Ba was not present when Lin Xuan sat at the dining table feeding Su Hua.
He didn't want to stay and be fed dog food.
"Hua Bao," Lin Xuan asked, "Do you have any work left here in the Black Triangle recently?"
"Why do you ask?" Su Hua inquired.
Lin Xuan answered, "No reason. I just feel we've been out long enough. I don't have any work left here in the Black Triangle. If you don't have anything either, I think we can set off back to Yundu City."
These past few days, first there was Liang Xiaoxia, then Xu Hui.
The fact that they each had feelings for him was discovered by Hua Bao, and she got jealous, inevitably leading her to lure him to bed.
If such things kept happening, his kidneys would definitely remain busy.
It was better to return to Yundu City sooner. While in Yundu, although many women liked him, except at the Night Garden, Hua Bao didn't stick to him every single moment.
Furthermore, many women might like him but wouldn't take action.
He still felt Yundu City was safer.
Thinking of this, Lin Xuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
If only he had returned to Yundu City immediately after reaching the cooperation agreement with the Night Rose, instead of staying here to handle work for a while to avoid Hua Bao.
If he hadn't been in the Black Triangle, the subsequent events wouldn't have happened either.
Could this be considered reaping what he sowed?
"Is that so?" Su Hua raised an eyebrow.
Are you sure it's not about returning to Yundu to avoid those admirers?
"Hua Bao, I'm telling the truth."
Lin Xuan's words sounded firm, but his gaze was somewhat evasive.
"Alright, I don't have anything left to do either. Let's go," Su Hua said.
She didn't want A-Xuan to stay here any longer. Too many people in A-Xuan's Golden Dragon Gang coveted him, which made her very uncomfortable.
"Good, then I'll have someone buy plane tickets for 3 PM," Lin Xuan said, relieved.
After the meal, Su Hua was taken back to the room by Lin Xuan.
"Hua Bao, wait in the room for now. I'll go arrange some work matters," Lin Xuan said.
"Okay," Su Hua replied, her eyes curving into a smile.
This was perfect, as she also needed to notify Jiang Qing to arrange matters for the Night Rose.
Lin Xuan left the room.
Wang Ba approached and said respectfully, "Boss."
Lin Xuan asked, "What about Xu Hui's head?"
Wang Ba replied, "It's already buried."
Mentioning Xu Hui's head, Wang Ba couldn't help but shudder.
Only seeing Xu Hui's head and not her body made him curious about where her body had gone.
He sent someone to inquire at the Night Rose.
It turned out Xu Hui had been thrown into the Ten Thousand Snake Pit, tormented to death by countless snakes wrapping around her body and biting her. She died from the torture.
Then, the Night Rose people beheaded her, sent her head to the Golden Dragon Gang, and continued to throw her body back into the Ten Thousand Snake Pit.
After one night, the flesh of the body had been mostly gnawed away, leaving only some bloody bones.
He had heard of the Ten Thousand Snake Pit before, but he never imagined it was this brutal...
Lin Xuan said with a cold expression, "Dig her head out. After I leave, hang it up within this Golden Dragon Gang base. If anyone dares to seduce me or do anything unfavorable to Hua Bao in the future, Xu Hui's fate will be theirs."
"Yes," Wang Ba acknowledged.
"By the way, Boss, should I arrange a private jet to take you back?" Wang Ba asked.
"No need."
Lin Xuan shook his head. "If we took a private jet back, it would be hard to explain to Hua Bao."
He absolutely couldn't let Hua Bao suspect his identity.
If Hua Bao sensed something, she would definitely send people to investigate.
Given Hua Bao's intelligence network, there's a chance she could find out he's the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang.
However, Lin Xuan later regretted not taking Wang Ba's advice to return by private jet due to what happened next.
Jiang Qing also received Su Hua's call.
After Su Hua finished arranging matters for the Night Rose, she said, "From now on, no one in the alliance is to provoke the Golden Dragon Gang, and certainly must not harm the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang. Understood?"
The Night Rose members all showed puzzled expressions on their faces.
When Secretary Jiang gathered them, they thought some major announcement was coming.
The result was telling them not to provoke the Golden Dragon Gang...
It seemed the Alliance Leader truly had taken a liking to the Golden Dragon Gang's leader...
They couldn't help but whisper among themselves.
"Our Alliance Leader actually fell for the Golden Dragon Gang leader? And she still likes her boyfriend. Is the Alliance Leader in love with two men at once?"
"I suddenly have a bold idea. Could it be that our Alliance Leader's boyfriend is actually the Golden Dragon Gang leader?"
