"What's the matter?" Ye Li frowned.
The scarred mercenary said, "It's hard to explain over the phone, Sir. You'd better come over quickly."
"Alright." Ye Li nodded.
Lin Xuan had no bodyguards around him, and Wang Dahe had been sent away with a trick. Ye Li had personally seen Lin Xuan drink that glass of wine and fall asleep. The next step was for him to fall into a passionate state.
To be on the safe side, he had tested the potency of this powder. No one could resist it unless they had the antidote, but how could such an antidote be easily obtained?
It was said that the antidote for this "Love Powder" had never been available on the market.
Even if Lin Xuan remained awake, he wouldn't be able to resist.
Ye Li hadn't anticipated that the two mercenaries he hired had already been subdued by Lin Xuan.
Ye Li sneered. Just as well, he wanted to see Lin Xuan's miserable state.
Wang Ping watched Ye Li's retreating figure with some confusion. Why was Brother Li in such a rush to leave? What was he up to?
After the scarred mercenary finished the phone call, Lin Xuan stuffed the mercenary's smelly sock into his mouth.
The pungent smell of sweat filled the mercenary's mouth, so strong and salty that he nearly passed out from the stench, his eyes rolling back, his face contorted in misery.
The one-eyed mercenary felt lucky. Thankfully, he was more hygienic; otherwise, he'd be in the same predicament.
Little did he know, Lin Xuan stuffed the other smelly sock from the scarred mercenary into the mouth of the one-eyed mercenary.
One-eyed mercenary: "..." What the hell...
After finishing all this, Lin Xuan washed his hands, sat back on the couch, and waited for Ye Li to arrive, casually playing with his phone, legs crossed.
The two women were sobbing, their faces tear-stained. The two mercenaries couldn't help but feel pity for them, glancing at Lin Xuan.
Had Lin Xuan been hurt by a woman before?
How could he remain so indifferent to two beautiful women with great figures?
Ye Li swiped his card to enter the room. Ye Li was a cautious man. To be on the safe side, he had brought four bodyguards with him.
Seeing the scene before him, his pupils contracted sharply.
The two mercenaries he hired, and these two women, why were they all tied up?
Where was Lin Xuan?
At that moment, a clear, slightly magnetic male voice came from behind him. "Ye Li, are you looking for me?"
Ye Li turned sharply to see Lin Xuan leaning comfortably on the couch, looking at him with a playful smile.
Ye Li's brows furrowed tightly, the creases so deep they could almost crush a fly.
According to the original plan, shouldn't Lin Xuan be entangled with those two women in bed?
Why were his people tied up instead?
And why did the mercenaries report everything was normal?
Realizing something, Ye Li's face darkened. "Lin Xuan, did you call me here on purpose?"
"Yes, I did." Lin Xuan admitted without hesitation.
Ye Li glared at Lin Xuan for a long moment, then suddenly sneered, "Lin Xuan, you're quite something. You managed to escape this situation unscathed."
"Ye Li." Lin Xuan stepped closer to Ye Li. "I know your goal. You wanted me to get entangled with other women so Su Hua would give up on me, and then you could take advantage and step in. Am I right?"
"Yes!" Ye Li admitted. "I want to tear you two apart. Lin Xuan, a man like you isn't worthy of President Su. I'm doing this for her sake. She deserves a better man."
That man is me!
If I could become Su Hua's man, I would cherish her deeply, giving her all the love she deserves.
Su Hua would come to realize what kind of man truly deserves her love.
"Ye Li, Ye Li, do you really think getting rid of me will give you a chance with her?" Lin Xuan coldly said. "Even if I'm not by Su Hua's side, you'll never have a chance to be with her."
It was the same in his previous life.
After he married Qin Ruoyao, Ye Li never got the chance to get close to Su Hua.
Not that he was being narcissistic, but he felt that no matter what, Su Hua would only ever want him.
"Ye Li, face reality. Su Hua only loves me."
Lin Xuan found it quite satisfying to brag in front of a rival, especially when he was about to send him to prison.
Ye Li's hand clenched into a fist, veins bulging on his knuckles. He gritted his teeth. "Lin Xuan, human effort can make things happen. I refuse to believe Su Hua won't see my sincerity!"
Of course, the premise was that Lin Xuan would completely break Su Hua's heart!
Ye Li picked up the fallen packet of powder from the ground, sneering.
"Lin Xuan, you managed to escape earlier. This time, you won't get away."
"You two, hold him down!" He was going to force-feed Lin Xuan the powder!
At this moment, Ye Li's mind was heated, completely forgetting that he had already sent someone to bring Su Hua over.
With a wave of his hand, Ye Li's four bodyguards charged forward.
Perfect, all four of them had moved in!
Lin Xuan stretched his wrists.
As one bodyguard charged at him, he struck with lightning speed, a fierce punch hitting the bodyguard in the eye. Another bodyguard had a knife, and Lin Xuan twisted his wrist with a loud crack, breaking it.
A spinning kick sent another bodyguard flying to the ground.
Lin Xuan moved effortlessly among the bodyguards, not letting them touch him at all.
What a joke!
He hadn't spent countless nights training in martial arts in the space just to be defeated!
Seeing bodyguard after bodyguard fall, Ye Li's eyes widened. When did Lin Xuan become so powerful?
Ye Li panicked, scanning the room.
Finally, his gaze landed on the two mercenaries. He ran over, removed their socks, and untied the ropes binding them.
"You two, go and capture Lin Xuan!"
The two mercenaries shook their heads frantically.
They didn't dare mess with Lin Xuan anymore!
When they fought earlier, they discovered that Lin Xuan's combat skills were extraordinary. These four bodyguards plus the two of them together wouldn't stand a chance against him!
Ye Li gritted his teeth again. "I'll increase your pay! Two million more!"
The mercenaries still shook their heads.
Ye Li: "Ten million!"
No matter what, he had to force that powder on Lin Xuan today. If he missed this opportunity, it would be much harder next time!
The mercenaries hesitated for a moment but still firmly shook their heads.
You needed to have a life to spend the money.
The mercenaries hid in the corner, timidly watching Lin Xuan, hoping he would spare them for being so obedient.
Lin Xuan downed every last one of them, his cold gaze finally resting on Ye Li.
"Ye Li, the last one... it's your turn."
An intense fear suddenly rose in Ye Li's heart.
