Chapter 287: Su Zong is Mad
It’s Brother Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan sent a kissing emoji over.
Su Hua stared at the chat window between her and Lin Xuan with her beautiful eyes, her eyebrows furrowed tightly.
That’s it?
In the past, Ah Xuan would always say so many sweet words.
Su Hua had a gloomy face, and cold air was emanating from her.
“President Su.”
As soon as the higher-up entered, they felt the low pressure in the president’s office.
Seeing Su Hua’s dark expression,
the higher-up inwardly cursed their bad timing.
“Su, President Su, umm… I see you have things to handle. Anyway, this project isn’t urgent, so maybe I’ll come back later this afternoon?”
“Bring it here.” Su Hua’s icy gaze pierced through the higher-up.
“Yes.”
The higher-up’s face fell.
Crap.
There’s no way to avoid this now.
The higher-up handed over the project proposal to Su Hua and began explaining beside her.
Su Hua held a pen, scribbling on it.
The higher-up continuously wiped the sweat off their forehead.
These twenty minutes passed exceptionally painfully.
“Bang!”
Su Hua tossed the project proposal in front of the higher-up.
Their heart trembled in fear.
“Take it back and redo it. Submit it within a day.” Su Hua said coldly.
“Yes, President Su.”
The higher-up shakily took the project proposal.
Too terrifying, President Su is absolutely terrifying.
During this period when President Su has been dating Young Master Lin, she has been very kind and approachable to them subordinates.
They haven’t seen President Su like this for a long time.
Unlucky him, he just happened to bump into her like this.
The higher-up practically ran out of Su Hua’s office.
Outside the office, he met Jiang. He couldn’t help but pull Jiang aside and asked, “Secretary Jiang, why is President Su in such a bad mood? Did she argue with her boyfriend?”
“Argue?” Jiang frowned, “Nope.”
If they really argued, Young Master Lin would definitely be here to comfort President Su by now.
And didn’t President Su share a sweet goodbye kiss with Young Master Lin before coming to work?
“No? That’s strange then. I’ve noticed a pattern; President Su’s emotions are mainly decided by her boyfriend. She seemed fine today, so there shouldn’t have been any argument, right?”
The higher-up mumbled.
“Secretary Jiang, I need to go deal with some work. President Su wants our department to revise this project proposal according to her requirements within a day. It’s tight.”
The higher-up thought it best to leave as soon as possible, lest President Su suddenly comes out of the office and catches him again.
“Mr. Huang, take care.”
Jiang watched the departing figure of the higher-up, frowning.
What exactly happened?
Mr. Huang wasn’t wrong; President Su’s emotions are mostly determined by Young Master Lin.
Could they have actually argued?
Jiang quietly peeked through the door crack into the office and indeed saw Su Hua’s unhappy expression.
Jiang didn’t dare to look further and quietly closed the door.
Today, she has to accompany President Su on an inspection. If President Su is in a bad mood, she will be the first one to suffer… No, Mr. Huang who just reported was the first unlucky one, trembling as he came out.
She’s next.
Nope.
She needs to improve President Su’s mood.
Jiang immediately thought of Lin Xuan, the fire extinguisher.
“Young Master Lin.” Jiang called Lin Xuan, her voice filled with flattery.
“Secretary Jiang? Is something up?”
“It’s like this… I want to ask if you argued with President Su today?” Jiang cut straight to the point.
“Argued?” Lin Xuan frowned, “Nope, what’s going on?”
“Are you sure?” Jiang was full of doubts, “Then why is President Su sulking?”
Other than Young Master Lin, nothing else could make President Su this angry.
“Hua Bao is upset? Wait, let me call her.”
“That’s a bother, Young Master Lin.”
Jiang sighed in relief.
Young Master Lin is President Su’s exclusive fire extinguisher. Whenever he steps in, there’s no fire that can’t be put out.
Jiang relaxed and continued her work.
…
After class, Professor Wang approached Lin Xuan’s desk. Wang Dahé nudged Lin Xuan’s shoulder, “Xuanzi, wake up! Professor Wang is looking for you.”
Lin Xuan’s consciousness returned from the space.
“Professor Wang?”
As soon as Lin Xuan looked up, he saw Professor Wang staring at him strangely.
“What, what’s the matter?”
Lin Xuan frowned; why was Professor Wang looking at him so weirdly?
“Classmate Lin, I don’t remember assigning much homework, do I? And you have special privileges anyway, so you don’t even need to do homework.” Professor Wang’s tone was particularly resentful.
Damn.
He hadn’t done anything, yet he got scolded by President Su, telling him not to assign too much homework.
“Professor Wang, you indeed didn’t assign us much after-class tasks.” Lin Xuan nodded.
“Then how did you tell President Su that I assigned you a lot of homework? When I came to class today, President Su specifically gave me a lecture about it.”
Professor Wang felt like he had become part of this young couple’s game.
Lin Xuan nervously touched his nose.
“Sorry.”
“Professor Wang, I won’t use you as an excuse anymore.”
That excuse was made up on the spot. That day, Hua Bao almost lured him back to bed again. Afraid he wouldn’t resist, he randomly came up with an excuse to escape—finishing programming homework.
Turns out, Hua Bao remembered it.
Professor Wang clutched his heart, “Classmate Lin, you must consider your teacher. My poor little heart can’t take your girlfriend’s wrath, especially since my job depends on your girlfriend.”
“Alright.” Lin Xuan nodded; this time, he was indeed in the wrong.
Fine, next time he’ll use an excuse related to the company.
Professor Wang smiled and said, “What a good kid. Oh, Classmate Lin, remember to put in a good word for me in front of President Su.”
“Mm.”
Lin Xuan nodded.
On the third day.
Professor Wang was still reading in the office when another teacher walked in, “Congratulations, Professor Wang, you’ve been promoted from associate professor to full professor.”
“What?” Professor Wang widened his eyes in shock.
His abilities were enough, but he’d only been at Shangqing University for a year, not meeting the conditions to become a full professor.
Shangqing University actually gave him the biennial unconditional promotion slot…
Professor Wang recalled the other day when he asked Lin Xuan to speak well of him in front of President Su.
So, this must be President Su’s doing.
Yes!
It must be!
Otherwise, there wouldn’t be such a coincidence in the world.
Lin Xuan’s leg… is truly thick.
For the following period, whenever he had time, Lin Xuan would immerse himself in the space to study medicine.
There were no records of Hua Bao’s condition in the medical knowledge of the other world, so he had to learn all the relevant medical knowledge himself and figure out a treatment plan for Hua Bao.
He must quickly research a cure.
Hua Bao’s illness cannot be delayed.
Although Hua Bao rarely has episodes now, he wants her to fully recover. He fears that delaying might cause some lingering effects.
Since Lin Xuan has been busy, he hasn’t spent much time with Su Hua, and he hasn’t visited Suzhou Group much either.
This day, Su Hua sent a message…
