Chapter 34: Her Humble Love
Over here, at Night Garden.
Su Hua came downstairs after changing into a suit skirt.
“Miss, do you think it’s true that Young Master Lin said he sent that love letter to you?” Butler Wang asked curiously.
Su Hua looked at her with a mocking expression: “Uncle Wang, it was you who told Brother Xuan about the love letter incident, so he sent those things to me.” There’s no way such a coincidence could happen in this world. Not long after Ye Li sent her the love letter, Ah Xuan contacted her and also sent the love letter.
So there’s only one possibility—someone tipped off Lin Xuan.
“Miss, if you think the letter was written for Qin Ruoyao, why didn’t you pursue the matter of Young Master Lin’s love letter?” Butler Wang was shocked internally; Miss already knew all this…
“As long as he’s still willing to deceive me and flatter me, that’s enough. I can’t ask for too much. The current him, even if he’s acting, is much better than before. I can’t bear to tear apart our seemingly beautiful relationship.” Su Hua’s lips curved with a bitter smile.
Ah, now it makes sense.
Butler Wang looked at Su Hua with heartache.
Who would’ve thought that Su Zong, who commands the business world, and Su Hua, who stepped over her siblings’ bones to become the head of the Su family, would be so humbled by a man…
Hopefully Lin Xuan doesn’t let her down, otherwise it would be too cruel for Miss…
“Miss, I feel like this time Young Master Lin might truly want to stay by your side,” Butler Wang consoled, “He told me that the love letter was written before he realized Qin Ruoyao’s true nature. The current him isn’t the same person as before.”
“It’s fine even if he doesn’t want to.”
Su Hua’s eyes dangerously narrowed, “He can only be my man, Su Hua. If he refuses, I’ll lock his legs and feet with chains and keep him forever.”
Butler Wang: “…”
Alright, Miss’s yandere tendencies have kicked in.
Suddenly, Su Hua’s phone rang. Seeing Brother Lin Xuan’s name on the screen, every trace of her hostility disappeared.
“Ah Xuan,” Su Hua said softly.
Butler Wang: “…”
Only Young Master Lin can make Miss return to normal, though her yandere tendencies are caused by Lin Xuan.
Lin Xuan coughed awkwardly, “Su Hua, I got into a fight at school and need parental involvement.”
“I’ll send the secretary to handle it.”
Though Su Hua really wanted to go to school herself, she needed time to calm down. She couldn’t scare him.
Jiang Qing hurriedly arrived at Bai Linjiang’s office.
Bai Linjiang frowned and asked, “Secretary Jiang, are you in such a rush because there’s something urgent that needs my attention?”
“Yes, something very important,” Jiang Qing replied, “You must immediately go to Shangqing University.”
“Could it be that Shangqing University has some equity disputes with Su Zong?” Bai Linjiang asked curiously.
“No, Su Zong wants you to handle a student fight,” Jiang Qing replied.
“Me?” Bai Linjiang pointed at himself, completely shocked.
He was a top-notch lawyer, one of the best in the field, and they wanted him to deal with a student fight?
Isn’t that a waste of talent?
“Secretary Jiang, I have the Wang case to handle. How about letting Lawyer Wang under me take care of it? He’s capable and can surely handle it well,” Bai Linjiang resisted strongly, feeling it was beneath him to deal with a student fight.
Jiang Qing smiled, “Secretary Bai, Su Zong specifically requested you. This person is very important to Su Zong. Handle it well, and there will be many benefits.”
An important person?
Bai Linjiang felt a spark of interest and nodded in agreement, “Alright, I’ll head over right away.”
—
Ye Li’s parents were also locals in Yun City. They lived next to Shangqing University, so they quickly arrived at the principal’s office.
They were decked out in gold and silver jewelry, looking like nouveau riche.
When Ye Mother saw Ye Li’s bruised face, she was heartbroken.
“Oh dear, my son, how did you get beaten up like this?” Ye Mother held Ye Li, full of concern.
Ye Father walked over with a stern expression, “Is this the person who hit my son?”
Lin Xuan had one hand in his pocket, “We fought each other. He lost to me, so whose fault is it?”
“Lin Xuan, you’re lying!” Ye Li angrily retorted, “It was clearly a one-sided beating from you!”
“Then how did I get injured?” Lin Xuan pointed to the corner of his mouth.
Ye Li was speechless.
He fell into Lin Xuan’s trap! No wonder Lin Xuan kept provoking him! And no wonder when he tried to hit Lin Xuan, Lin Xuan could dodge but chose not to!
Ye Li glared at Lin Xuan with a dark expression.
Good, really good! You’ve become smarter indeed!
Ye Mother excitedly declared, “My son has always been gentle, polite, and kind-hearted. He wouldn’t even step on an ant. How could he possibly hit you? Those injuries must be self-inflicted!”
“Auntie, even if I inflicted them myself, do you have proof? Can I not say that Ye Li’s injuries are also self-inflicted?” Lin Xuan’s tone was incredibly arrogant.
“How dare you be so unreasonable? Do you have any manners?” Ye Mother glared.
Ye Father remained calm, his voice icy, “Even if you got hurt, you only have one wound while my son has over ten!”
“Principal, doesn’t your school have a rule about expulsion for fighting?”
The Principal nodded, “There is such a rule, but we need to wait for Lin Xuan’s parents to arrive before making a decision.”
Ye Father sat down on the sofa, “Alright, I’ll wait a bit longer. I’m curious to see who could raise such a fine son!”
After waiting for ten minutes, Bai Linjiang still hadn’t arrived.
“Hmph, these parents of Lin Xuan probably know they’re wrong and decided not to come,” Ye Mother mocked.
“Why rush? He’s far away and hasn’t arrived yet,” Lin Xuan said calmly.
“Fine, I’ll wait,” Ye Mother coldly snorted. She’d heard from Li Er that although Lin Xuan’s family had some money, he wasn’t favored at home, so his parents likely wouldn’t blindly protect him.
“Clack clack clack—”
Jiang Shuqin entered the principal’s office in high heels.
Lin Xuan frowned. He had forgotten that the phone number he left at school was from the Lin family. Schools worry about students faking information, so if parent involvement is required, they call to confirm!
Jiang Shuqin looked displeased: “Lin Xuan, you’ve caused trouble on your first day of school. You sure know how to stir things up!”
“So you’re Lin Xuan’s mother?” Ye Mother said disdainfully.
Jiang Shuqin gave Lin Xuan a stern look.
This face of hers has been disgraced by this disobedient son!
“Yes, I am,” Jiang Shuqin took a deep breath.
“Well, what do you plan to do since your son beat up mine?” Ye Mother crossed her arms arrogantly.
“How much money do you want? I’ll pay!” Jiang Shuqin gritted her teeth.
On her way here, Jiang Shuqin had already decided it was Lin Xuan’s fault. He always had terrible character and acted lawlessly. Who else could it be but him?
Upon arriving at the principal’s office and seeing Ye Li’s bruised face, she became even more convinced of her thoughts!
Since it’s Lin Xuan’s fault, she could only lower her pride and apologize.
“Money? Are we people who lack money?” Ye Mother sneered.
“I want him!” Ye Mother pointed at Lin Xuan, “To kneel down and apologize to my son! He should slap himself twenty times, saying he’s sorry while doing so. That’s not all—I also want him to publicly apologize to my son over the school broadcast.”
“Tsk.” Lin Xuan smirked coldly.
“Lin Xuan, why don’t you follow Auntie Ye’s request right away?” Jiang Shuqin ordered darkly.
Lin Xuan ignored her and looked at the principal, “Principal, I have no relation to her. My real family hasn’t arrived yet.”
