Chapter 127: I_____
They were eating these things at the stall.
The boss lady, startled by their presence, generously added extra meat and egg while making the egg pancakes.
“Here you go.”
The boss lady handed over two bags of egg pancakes.
Brother Lin Xuan gave her a hundred bucks.
“No need for change.”
“Alrighty, thank you.” The boss lady grinned as she took it.
Lin Xuan handed one of the egg pancakes to Su Hua, “Hua Bao, try this, it’s really delicious.”
Su Hua frowned but accepted it.
Under Lin Xuan’s watchful gaze, Su Hua took a small bite of the egg pancake, her eyes lighting up slightly.
Lin Xuan then took Su Hua to eat hot pot.
Su Hua ate significantly more than usual.
Lin Xuan felt a great sense of accomplishment.
As they passed by the square where there was a ring toss game, the boss enthusiastically greeted them, “Hey handsome, beautiful lady, why don’t you give it a try? Just hit the target, and you can take home the corresponding plushie according to the code on it.”
The boss pointed to the row of plushies behind him.
There was a Teddy Bear that somewhat resembled Hua Bao, and the other plushies were also very cute.
Lin Xuan asked, “How much per ring?”
The boss glanced at their attire and the bodyguards behind them before answering, “Thirty bucks per ring.”
Lin Xuan chuckled coldly.
These guys were trying to rip them off, treating them like suckers. Perfect, he didn’t have to feel bad about buying in bulk.
Lin Xuan looked around; there were sixty plushies here, forty of which would definitely make him lose money if hit.
Lin Xuan directly handed over twelve hundred bucks.
“Forty rings.”
“Alright.” The boss smiled so wide his teeth disappeared.
Sure enough, these rich people were just suckers!
Lin Xuan handed one of the rings to Su Hua, “Hua Bao, let’s do this together.”
Su Hua held the ring in her hand.
Lin Xuan wrapped his arms around her from behind, holding her hands gently, “Hua Bao, when I say three-two-one, we’ll let go together.”
“Three”
“Two”
“One”
As Lin Xuan finished speaking, the ring flew out in a parabolic arc, landing straight onto the farthest corner can.
The boss wiped the sweat from his forehead.
The plushie corresponding to this number was the biggest one, costing him three hundred bucks to buy.
It had never been hit before, yet Lin Xuan succeeded with the first ring.
What amazing luck.
Good thing he charged them so much for the rings, otherwise, he’d be losing money.
With a pained expression, the boss handed the plushie to one of the bodyguards.
Holding Su Hua’s hand, Lin Xuan threw ring after ring, hitting every single target without fail.
More and more people gathered around, applauding fiercely.
“Awesome!”
“Too cool!”
Many people looked at Lin Xuan and Su Hua with admiration.
If they could hit even one, it would already be pretty good, but these two barely missed any!
The boss’s face fell.
He thought they were suckers, but they turned out to be so skilled.
He lost almost several thousand bucks today!
And he couldn’t renege, not with all those tall and burly bodyguards around.
Thus, an odd scene appeared on the street: more than ten stern-faced bodyguards each holding several large plushies.
Su Hua also held a smaller Teddy Bear plushie in her arms.
Turnaround rate was one hundred percent.
A man walking through the night market with a branch in his hand suddenly stopped, staring straight at Su Hua. His clothes were disheveled, his eyes vacant, his hair nearly covering his face.
Suddenly, he stopped, his eyes fixed on Su Hua.
Lin Xuan furrowed his brows.
Why did this person look so familiar?
That man examined Su Hua for a moment, then walked straight toward her with the branch in his arms, “Miss Su, I love you, I really love you, will you be with me?”
“Look, Miss Su came again to pick Brother Lin up from school. She personally sent him in the morning and picks him up in the evening. My goodness, Miss Su spoils Brother Lin too much.”
“If only I could have a girlfriend like that… Never mind, I shouldn’t dream. If my girlfriend had even one of these qualities—being a billionaire, being a super beauty, or only having eyes for me—I’d already be grateful.”
“Damn! I wish I could replace Brother Lin.”
The bell rang.
Wang Dahé, while tidying up his books, said, “Xuanzi, let’s hit the bar tonight, wanna come?”
“No.”
Lin Xuan refused without hesitation, “Bars are full of all sorts. With my handsome face, if I went to a bar, I’d probably attract some women. I have to stay pure for my wife.”
Wang Dahé scratched his arm.
So cheesy.
Tsk, staying pure for your wife, huh.
“You’re such a narcissist!” Wang Dahé rolled his eyes.
“Since you’re not going to the bar, let’s just grab dinner somewhere. We haven’t eaten out together since school started,” Wang Dahé suggested again.
Lin Xuan: “No time.”
“What’s wrong with you?”
Lin Xuan softly replied, “I have to accompany my girlfriend. She’s waiting for me downstairs.”
Shit!
Wang Dahé wanted to curse.
Is having a girlfriend so great?
Lin Xuan patted Wang Dahé’s shoulder, “Single dogs have plenty of time. You don’t know how tight our schedules are when you have a girlfriend. This is normal.”
“I’m leaving, no point talking to you anymore. I can’t keep my girlfriend waiting too long.”
Lin Xuan slung his bag behind him and left.
Wang Dahé: “F*ck!”
Swearing profusely.

When Lin Xuan arrived downstairs, Su Hua saw him and got out of the car.
“Did you get tired from classes all day?” Su Hua gently tidied Lin Xuan’s clothes.
“A bit, but seeing Hua Bao makes me feel energized.” Lin Xuan smiled, slightly bending down, “I think I got sand in my eyes, Hua Bao, blow it out for me.”
Su Hua complied and gently blew on his eyes.
Onlookers, who were single, clutched their hearts, feeling like they’d taken a ten-thousand-point hit to their hearts.
Damn damn damn!
Lin Xuan and Miss Su were showing off their affection everywhere.
Amidst envious stares, Lin Xuan protected Su Hua as they got into the car.
The driver asked, “Miss Su, Young Master Lin, shall we return to Ye Yuan?”
Su Hua was about to nod when Lin Xuan spoke, “No, let’s go to the night market instead.”
Thus, in the brightly lit night market, there was such a scene: Lin Xuan and Su Hua walking in the middle, surrounded by more than ten black-clad bodyguards.
The air was filled with the pungent smell of cooking oil.
Su Hua’s eyebrows furrowed; she wasn’t used to such an environment. But…
Seeing Lin Xuan’s high spirits, she suppressed her discomfort.
Lin Xuan introduced, “When I didn’t have money before, sometimes I’d save up a little money for a long time to buy some food here to satisfy my cravings.”
“This is egg pancake, it’s particularly tasty.”
Lin Xuan stood in front of the stall, “Two egg pancakes, no spice, please.”
The boss lady was surprised at their presence.
So many bodyguards, and the aura of these two people—it was clear they were extremely wealthy.
Why were these rich people coming to their place?
