Lin Xuan scanned the circle of students.
He couldn't detect anything unusual on their faces.
Lin Xuan breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, these Qinghua University students, still inexperienced in matters of love, were quite innocent and hadn't picked up on the implied meaning in Hua Bao's words. Otherwise, if this got exposed on the campus forum, he'd be socially finished.
"You know, A-Xuan, you don't have to work so hard," Su Hua spoke up again. "You could come keep me company at my company. I'll take care of you."
"No need," Lin Xuan shook his head frantically.
Hua Bao had a particular fondness for the office.
If he went to accompany Hua Bao at work, she'd probably find all sorts of excuses to tempt him into staying in the office with her every day...
For the sake of his kidneys, he needed to find more things to keep himself busy.
Afraid Su Hua might say something even more earth-shattering next, Lin Xuan quickly spoke up, "Hua Bao, it's getting late, let's head back."
Su Hua curved her lips into a smile. "Alright, whatever my boyfriend says. Let's go back."
Lin Xuan swiftly ducked into the car.
A flicker of amusement passed through Su Hua's eyes as she followed and got into the car.
Wang Dahe scratched his head in confusion.
What was going on?
Why did he feel something was off about Xuanzi's mood?
When he got in the car just now, Xuanzi looked incredibly hurried, as if being chased by a ghost.
As soon as Su Hua and Lin Xuan's car started moving,
a wave of noisy chatter instantly erupted around them.
A female student grabbed her best friend's hand. "Did you see that? Did you see? President Su and Lin Xuan actually kissed!"
"I saw, they're so sweet together. I felt like pink bubbles were floating all around them, so sweet it makes me want to fall in love too."
"Hey, what do you think their relationship is? Are they a couple, or is it a... sugar baby arrangement?"
Hmm.
President Su is the CEO of the Su Corporation. Her supporting Lin Xuan wouldn't be strange.
Lin Xuan is her idol.
To be honest, she really couldn't accept her idol having a girlfriend, but if Lin Xuan's girlfriend is President Su, she felt it wasn't entirely unacceptable.
Her idol was bound to fall in love someday.
If it were some other woman, she'd feel really uncomfortable. But the object is President Su, someone she could only admire from afar.
She's beautiful, with a curvaceous figure.
Most crucially, she's the CEO of the Su Corporation.
That status is worthy of her idol.
"What are you thinking? Lin Xuan is the head of Tianmu Group, worth billions. How could he possibly be a kept man? Besides, President Su just called him her boyfriend. They're in a proper romantic relationship. How could it be some arrangement?"
"Oh, right." The girl scratched her head.
She'd actually forgotten about that.
The men there were filled with envy and jealousy towards Lin Xuan.
If only they could have a girlfriend like President Su, they'd be set for life, never worrying about food or clothing.
Chen Ling watched the departing car, almost grinding her back teeth to dust.
Shameless.
Su Hua was utterly shameless.
Just like those brazen women, getting intimate with a man so casually in public!
The two girls Chen Ling had sneered at earlier, upon seeing Chen Ling now, walked up to her with raised eyebrows.
"This morning, someone was boasting about how close she was with Lin Xuan. Turns out, Lin Xuan has a girlfriend, and they're very much in love."
"Right. Someone was probably very confident she could be with Lin Xuan. Pity that wish will never come true."
Chen Ling's chest heaved with heavy breaths.
Her face was flushed red with anger.
"What does it have to do with you two busybodies?"
And besides,
who said it was impossible for her and Brother Lin Xuan to be together?
It just wasn't the right time yet.
Eventually, she would make Brother Lin Xuan fall for her!
"Someone's triggered, triggered." The two girls scoffed.
Their commotion drew the attention of other students.
"I recognize this woman. This morning, she went up to Lin Xuan very intimately, calling him 'Brother Lin Xuan.' I thought they had something going on. Turns out, Lin Xuan barely paid her any attention."
"They're just acquaintances at best. Nothing more intimate than that."
"Oh, and after the lecture today, she stopped Lin Xuan, wanting to talk to him alone. Later, Lin Xuan called his good friend over to join them."
It was obvious Chen Ling had feelings for Lin Xuan.
But Lin Xuan had zero interest in Chen Ling.
Then again, with a girlfriend like President Su, why would Lin Xuan look at any other woman?
"What's her name?"
"I think it's Chen Ling."
"Tsk, really lacks self-awareness. Doesn't look at her own looks, talent, or family background—what compares to President Su? And she dares to compete with President Su for a man? Truly overestimating herself."
Chen Ling cared deeply about face.
In public, she always acted like a pure, flawless innocent flower.
Coupled with her pretty looks, she was quite popular with the male students.
She was used to being fawned over; when had she ever been gossiped about like this?
Chen Ling broke down and shouted loudly, "Who I like is none of your business!"
"My affairs are not for you to comment on!"
Chen Ling pushed through them and rushed out of the crowd.
There was another girl who had earlier said that even if Lin Xuan had a girlfriend, she still had a chance.
Upon learning Lin Xuan's girlfriend was Su Hua,
she patted her chest in fear.
Muttering, "She really wasn't lying to me. Lin Xuan's girlfriend is someone I can't afford to mess with?"
Someone of President Su's stature—offending her would probably mean a dead end for her.
How would she dare to compete with President Su for a man now?
Meanwhile.
In the car.
The partition had been lowered.
The driver was at the wheel.
His eyes were fixed on the road ahead, but his mind couldn't help but wander.
He wondered...
what President Su and Young Master Lin were doing in the back seat?
As soon as they got in the car, President Su had instructed him to lower the partition.
President Su was definitely going to do something with Young Master Lin.
Was it kissing, or...
Ahem.
Better not think about it. His masters' affairs were not for him to pry into.
At this moment, Lin Xuan was leaning back in the rear seat.
A certain siren-like woman was already straddling his lap, her legs parted.
Her eyes were seductive, misty pools.
Beneath her suit skirt was a pair of black stockings.
Lin Xuan's gaze involuntarily fell on Su Hua's legs.
His mind flashed to the image of Su Hua in bed, those long, shapely legs wrapped around his waist.
Her straight, long hair fanned out across the sheets.
The corners of her eyes tinged red.
Eyes glazed with a layer of moisture.
Utterly, devastatingly alluring.
Recalling this scene, Lin Xuan hastily averted his gaze.
Where was his mind going?
Su Hua sat on Lin Xuan's lap, her fingers toying idly with the buttons on his shirt.
Suddenly noticing a change in Lin Xuan's body,
Su Hua's beautiful eyebrows arched slightly.

world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
