Chapter 387: Two Choices for You
“My darling Ling, so this is the man you fancy, huh?”
Zhao Long chuckled, “Do you even know how stupid he is? He actually brought a pile of cash to the Golden Dragon Gang, got them to follow him and barge right into my place. Tell me, isn’t that like walking straight into a trap?”
“My darling Ling, you’re so amazing, how could you possibly like such a guy?”
“Sister Su Hua’s relationship with Brother Lin Xuan is none of your business. Let him go already.” Su Hua said coldly.
“Ling, I’m doing all this for your own good. I’ll make you see his true colors.”
Zhao Long grinned as he walked up to Ah Xuan.
Su Hua’s delicate brows were furrowed tightly.
What does he plan to do?
“Lin Xuan,” Zhao Long smirked, “you’re in my hands now. Your life or death is decided by me.”
“Between you and Ling, only one can leave today. Will it be you leaving or Ling leaving? The choice is yours.”
He pulled out a gun and aimed it at Lin Xuan.
Su Hua’s eyes were locked on the gun in Zhao Long’s hand, her own gun also aimed at Zhao Long. It seemed like if Zhao Long fired, she would pull the trigger immediately.
“What are you planning to do?”
The members of the Shang Organization all aimed their guns at Su Hua.
Zhao Long raised his hand to stop them, “Don’t hurt my darling Ling. If a single hair on her head is touched by you guys, I’ll make sure you regret being born.”
Hearing Zhao Long’s words, those assassins all lowered their guns.
Lin Xuan frowned and asked, “What do you mean? One leaves, what about the other?”
“Of course, the other dies. Today, only one of you two will live,” Zhao Long said with a grin.
He loved watching the drama unfold between lovers who turned against each other.
Lin Xuan clenched his fists tightly.
“Ah Xuan.”
Zhao Long moved the gun from Lin Xuan’s chest up to his temple.
“Your life or death is entirely up to you, Lin Xuan. Don’t disappoint me.”
Zhao Long was certain Lin Xuan would choose himself and abandon Su Hua.
Then Ling would surely see through this hypocrite’s true nature.
Being betrayed by the person she loves, Ling would return to her previous state of being heartless.
“Die?” Lin Xuan frowned, “If I pick myself, but Ling is your subordinate, would you really let something happen to her?”
“Of course not, but if you choose her, nothing bad will happen to her,” Zhao Long chuckled lightly.
Lin Xuan tightened his fists.
He glanced at the clock on the wall again; there were only seven minutes left.
He had to find a way to buy more time.
“I’ll give you three minutes to think. Give me an answer within three minutes, otherwise, both of you will die.”
“Hahahaha.”
Zhao Long laughed loudly again.
Lin Xuan spoke seriously, “Can we have a bit more time to think?”
“You only have three minutes,” Zhao Long replied.
Lin Xuan gripped his hands tightly.
Three minutes…
Zhao Long pressed the timer.
Every second felt unbearably agonizing.
Zhao Long watched Lin Xuan.
Ah Xuan, hurry up and make your choice, choose yourself.
Leave Ling to me.
Ling belongs to me.
“You have ten seconds left,” Zhao Long announced.
Lin Xuan clenched his fists tighter.
“Ten”
“Nine”
“Eight”
…
Zhao Long continued counting down.
“Three”
“Two”
“One”
“Time’s up,” Zhao Long smirked, “Ah Xuan, make your choice. Do you want to live, or does Ling live?”
Lin Xuan tightened his fists, “I choose…”
He hesitated.
“Speak! Who do you choose?” Zhao Long asked again.
Lin Xuan extended his hand, slowly moving it counterclockwise.
It paused briefly in Su Hua’s direction.
At the same time,
Lin Xuan’s gaze was fixed on Zhao Long’s hand. If Zhao Long pointed the gun at Su Hua, he would use his body to shield her without hesitation.
He wouldn’t let her get hurt even a little bit.
“Hahahaha.”
Zhao Long burst out laughing, “Ling, did you see that? Lin Xuan chose for you to die! In life-and-death situations, nothing tests a man’s sincerity better. There’s no love for you in his heart, only himself.”
“So, Ling, come back to us in Shang. You should discard all emotions. Only here is where you truly belong.”
Su Hua’s lips curved into a faint smile.
Ah Xuan’s choice was normal.
He should indeed choose himself.
She didn’t want anything to happen to him. But if she died, when Ah Xuan married and had children, could they not visit her grave with his wife and kids?
Jiang Qing frowned deeply.
This shouldn’t be possible.
The one involved is blind while the bystander sees clearly.
Su Zong couldn’t see Young Master Lin’s feelings for her, but she, as an outsider, saw it crystal clear. Young Master Lin loved Su Zong more than he loved himself.
Su Zong had already signed the inheritance document. If anything happened to Su Zong, all her assets would belong to Young Master Lin.
Young Master Lin knew about this.
Yet he still dared to risk his life and came to the Shang Organization to fight them, which meant Young Master Lin valued Su Zong’s life more than his own.

Bosses, I’ve got some urgent matters to attend to. I’ll update tomorrow.
