Chapter 175: Root-Cutting Solution

Su Hua chuckled softly, “But even if Ah Xuan won’t be lured away by other women, his romantic entanglements are just too many. One after another, they keep coming at him like flowers blooming endlessly.”

Su Hua’s voice carried boundless coldness.

Jiang’s body shivered from the chill.

It’s over; Young Master Lin is done for.

Su Zong’s jealousy could fill the ocean now—she’ll be impossible to console.

“Boss Su, should we deal with Lin Li who’s stirring up trouble?” Jiang asked.

“No need. Ah Xuan is already handling the Lin family. Let’s leave him as Ah Xuan’s plaything.” Su Hua’s eyes glinted with coldness.

“But…”

“Since he dared to try using me to harm Ah Xuan, he deserves to pay the price.” Su Hua smirked, her tone ominous.

Jiang lit a candle in his heart for Lin Li.

Lin Li won’t get through this unscathed.

“Jiang,” Su Hua said expressionlessly, “send someone out to find an opportunity to capture Lin Li. Torture him well. Oh, didn’t the lab just develop the root-cutting solution? Use him as a test subject.”

Root-cutting solution?

Jiang’s eyes widened, filled with shock.

Boss Su plans to use the root-cutting solution on Lin Li…

Looks like Boss Su is really angry this time.

“Yes, I’ll arrange it as soon as possible.” Jiang agreed.

“Also,” Su Hua continued, “make sure Brother Lin Xuan finds out about the arrogant Shen Qianqian through the information you’ve gathered.”

“Alright.”

Jiang exited the office.

Only Su Hua remained in the office.

“Ah Xuan,” Su Hua caressed the ring and spoke softly, “I really want to lock you up.”

Turn you into a wingless goldfinch, locked in my Night Garden forever.

A world where only the two of us exist.

Lin Chang returned to the Lin residence.

Lin Qingwan had been sitting on the living room sofa waiting for Lin Chang.

“Master,” the servant respectfully called.

Lin Qingwan’s eyes lit up.

Dad’s back.

He should have Xiao Xuan with him.

Lin Li clenched his fists tightly, sweating nervously.

Lin Chang changed into slippers and entered the villa. Lin Qingwan looked behind Lin Chang, asking curiously, “Dad, where’s Xiao Xuan? Didn’t he come back with you?”

“Don’t mention him to me!” Lin Chang said grimly, “He’s a rebellious son, lawless!”

“Dad, what happened?” Lin Qingwan frowned.

Lin Chang gritted his teeth, “He said the Lin family has nothing to do with him, and he won’t return. He knows that the termination of cooperation between the Shen family and Starlight Group will affect Starlight Group, yet he was gloating about it!”

“Dad, Xiao Xuan must still be upset. Maybe things will improve in a few days. Dad, Xiao Xuan is young and doesn’t know better. Don’t let anger ruin your health,” Lin Qingwan consoled.

She doesn’t want to see the relationship between Xiao Xuan and their parents deteriorate.

Otherwise, there will be even less hope for Xiao Xuan to return to the Lin family in the future.

“Wan’er, stop defending Lin Xuan. I know what he’s thinking! He’s treating the Lin family as his enemy right now!” Lin Chang angrily said.

Lin Li frowned.

Didn’t Lin Xuan go through great lengths to return to the Lin family?

Why did he reject such a good opportunity?

Jiang Shuqin sighed in relief.

If Lin Xuan doesn’t return, she won’t have to see that annoying thing anymore.

Jiang Shuqin crossed her arms and sat on the sofa, “Lin Xuan is an ungrateful wolf. If we let him back into the Lin family, it would be inviting a wolf into our home, causing chaos. Not returning is better.”

“No,” Lin Chang gritted his teeth, “he must return! I must maintain the cooperation with the Shen family!”

I need to find an opportunity to make Lin Xuan beg me to come back!

When Su Hua returned to the Night Garden, it was already deep into the night. Everything around was eerily quiet.

Her whole body radiated suppressed malevolence.

Apparently, all her work tonight was utterly useless.

—

Thank you to EMERIUM for the divine certification.

Thanks to Zero Two Zero Two, Candy Fried Calendar, Tian Yong, the Emperor who Loves White-Cut Dog, Bai Xingmu c, and other precious ones for their gifts.

Precious ones, should we be on vacation now?

At Su Hua’s office.

“Boss Su, here’s Shen Qianqian’s file.”

Su Hua skimmed through the documents.

Jiang introduced alongside, “This Shen Qianqian has no special qualities, except being overly arrogant and bullying others.”

“Before anything happened to Young Master Lin, the Lin family and Shen family had arranged a marriage contract, but later, the Shen family looked down on Young Master Lin and instead engaged Shen Qianqian with Lin Li.”

“Recently, during Lin Li’s birthday party, Young Master Lin publicly exposed Lin Li and Qin Ruoyao’s scandalous affair, so Shen Qianqian’s father Shen Mao announced the cancellation of their engagement.”

Because of the rush, they could only gather this much information.

Su Hua glanced at the data, slightly frowning.

“Jiang, do you think I look better or Shen Qianqian does?” Su Hua suddenly asked.

Jiang: “???”

Why is Boss Su comparing looks with Shen Qianqian?

“Boss Su, naturally, you look far better. Your beauty is the best in the entire Yun Capital,” Jiang replied.

She was speaking the truth.

Su Hua’s beauty was incredibly aggressive, stunning anyone who saw her and leaving a lasting impression.

Not to mention her innate noble aura, which added even more charm to her.

“So, how about our abilities and personalities?” Su Hua asked again.

“Shen Qianqian can’t compare to Boss Su in any way,” Jiang continued her reply.

Satisfaction flickered in Su Hua’s eyes.

“So, since I’m better than Shen Qianqian in every aspect and I’m Ah Xuan’s girlfriend, how could Ah Xuan possibly leave me for someone like Shen Qianqian?” Su Hua muttered softly.

As for Ah Xuan coveting the Shen family’s wealth, that’s even more impossible.

My money, Ah Xuan can spend freely.

If Ah Xuan stops running away, I’ll give him the company as a gift.

Jiang: “…”

So, Boss Su compared herself with Shen Qianqian for this reason.

Women in love… always like to compare themselves with their rivals.

“Boss Su, do you believe Young Master Lin didn’t seduce Shen Qianqian?” Jiang tentatively asked.

“Hmm, I’ve trusted him from start to finish. I believe he wouldn’t take interest in Shen Qianqian, let alone seduce her,” Su Hua lowered her gaze, her delicate fingers stroking the ring on her left hand.

However, my Ah Xuan is just too outstanding now, attracting too many women.

First, Qin Ruoyao left.

Now Shen Qianqian comes along.

And there will be more women in the future.

Every time I think about those women wanting to snatch Ah Xuan from me, or looking at my Ah Xuan with inappropriate gazes, I go crazy with the urge to lock him up. He should only see me.

I didn’t dare to return to the Night Garden because I feared losing control and locking Ah Xuan up.

What if I scare him and he goes berserk trying to escape from me like before? What should I do then?

I don’t want to disrupt the current peace.

Therefore, I want to numb myself with work, and once I’ve calmed down, I’ll go back to find my Ah Xuan.

“Boss Su, I thought you believed Lin Li’s words.” Jiang felt relieved inside.

That’s right.

It must be me overthinking.

If Boss Su believed Lin Li, she would have abandoned the cooperation earlier and gone back to lock Young Master Lin in a dark room rather than rushing to the company.

Su
