Chapter 39: The Tamed Beast

Su Hua stared at him unblinkingly.

Ah Xuan, I believe you.

But don’t deceive me, or I’ll go crazy…

“Hurry up and eat, the food will get cold and won’t taste as good.”

Brother Lin Xuan picked up a piece of shrimp and placed it by Su Hua’s lips. He had already inquired with Butler Wang about Su Hua’s preferences for meals and her dietary restrictions, so he wouldn’t make the same mistake again like that day when he fed her something she was allergic to.

“Mm.” Su Hua obediently bit into the shrimp.

As Lin Xuan watched, he couldn’t help but marvel at how adorable Su Hua was.

In the dining room, the handsome man and beautiful woman were feeding each other, creating an indescribably wonderful scene.

After feeding Su Hua, Lin Xuan began eating himself, while Su Hua continued to prop her chin on her hand and gaze at him.

That look… seemed like she was eyeing prey, waiting for the right moment to devour him whole.

Lin Xuan felt his entire body heat up; he became very uncomfortable under her gaze and hastily finished his meal in just a few bites.

Su Hua leaned in, her soft black hair falling onto Lin Xuan’s shoulder. She breathed softly into the man’s ear, “Ah Xuan, I want dessert after dinner.”

Several buttons of Su Hua’s blouse were undone, and from Lin Xuan’s angle, he could see the alluring view in front of her, making him want to explore further.

Cough.

Lin Xuan hastily averted his eyes.

“What do you want? I’ll make it for you. I can also make those desserts.” Lin Xuan hadn’t fully processed what was happening.

“Ah Xuan, my dessert is you.” Su Hua licked the edge of Lin Xuan’s ear.

Lin Xuan’s face turned bright red.

This enchantress!

Seeing Lin Xuan’s reaction, Su Hua smiled with delight.

She straddled Lin Xuan’s lap facing him, wrapping her soft arms around the man’s neck. “Ah Xuan, I am yours.”

“Forever.”

She offered her red lips to the man, surrounded by her sweet breath. Lin Xuan couldn’t help but caress her back.

The temperature in the air gradually rose.

Her kiss grew hotter, “Ah Xuan, since you’ve willingly become my man, Su Hua’s man, I won’t allow you to escape.”

“Ah Xuan, for all eternity, we must be bound together.”

“Isn’t this what you wanted to see, me losing control for you? I’ll give you everything…”

“Ah Xuan, let’s fall into the abyss together…”

She relished their shared descent, feeling as if they would never part.

…

“Swish.” The kitchen door opened.

Lin Xuan carried the woman out of the dining room and took her straight back to the bedroom.

“Su Hua, what happened to your hand?” Lin Xuan looked at the woman’s right hand, which had two deep cuts from a kn*fe.

“I’m fine.” Su Hua pursed her lips; this was a minor injury for her.

Lin Xuan fetched medicine to treat and bandage her wound.

“Su Hua, take care of yourself.” Lin Xuan said as he bandaged her, “Otherwise, I’ll be heartbroken.”

Su Hua’s beautiful eyes sparkled like stars.

Heartbroken… five years ago, he had said these words too…

Had that person really returned?

Seeing Su Hua not responding, Lin Xuan’s expression darkened, “Su Hua, did you hear me?”

As soon as he said that, Lin Xuan paused.

How dare he command Su Hua like this? Was this his way of being arrogant because of her affection?

Lin Xuan cautiously glanced at Su Hua, expecting her to be upset.

But she remained calm and nodded obediently, “Alright, I’ll listen to Ah Xuan.”

Lin Xuan: “…Why do I feel like I’ve tamed a large beast?”

Lin Xuan tied a pretty butterfly knot with gauze on Su Hua’s hand.

Su Hua waved her hand with the butterfly knot and pursed her lips, “It’s inconvenient to wash with one hand, and the wound can easily get wet.”

Su Hua had been stimulated by the powder on her wound earlier, which caused some pain. Her eyes filled with water, and with these words, she looked pitiful.

Lin Xuan quickly averted his gaze.

Su Hua’s appearance was truly tormenting!

“I’ll help you wash then.” Lin Xuan compliantly said.

Su Hua: “Carry me, my legs are weak, I can’t walk.”

Suddenly, Lin Xuan recalled the scene in the dining room where Su Hua clung to him like a koala bear…

Stop, stop.

Lin Xuan dared not think further and followed Su Hua’s request to carry her into the bathroom.

Lin Xuan thought he’d be tempted again by Su Hua, the little enchantress, but unexpectedly, she was well-behaved this time. Instead, the smooth skin in his hands made him restless.

After washing up, Lin Xuan helped Su Hua dry her hair, and she hugged his waist tightly before falling asleep.

Lin Xuan looked at the serene beauty in his arms, who now appeared harmless without any defenses.

In his memory, Su Hua was decisive and cold, almost inhuman. These days, as he got to know her better, he realized she needed warmth and love. In front of him, she seemed particularly feminine… This contrast was quite cute.

At the Lin Family residence.

Jiang Shuqin angrily threw her Chanel bag onto the sofa.

“Mom, what’s wrong?” Lin Qingwan asked curiously.

“It’s all because of that rebellious son Lin Xuan!” Jiang Shuqin gritted her teeth, “He got into a fight at school, and I kindly went to handle it for him. But my kindness was thrown back in my face! He publicly declared he has severed ties with the Lin family, treating me like an outsider. Shangqing University kicked me out!”

Lin Qingwan’s heart sank deeper and deeper. She thought Xiao Xuan was just throwing a tantrum and would be fine after a few days, but it’s been so long, and he still harbors such strong resentment towards the Lin family.

Could it be that this time, he really intends to completely break away from the Lin family?

“Big Sister, from now on, we should all ignore him,” Jiang Shuqin sneered, “Now he has a sugar daddy to rely on, but once he gets dumped, he’ll come crawling back.”

Lin Qingwan felt heavy-hearted, “Mom, I’m going upstairs first.”

Lin Qingwan entered Lin Xuan’s room and looked around at the setup. A lump formed in her throat.

This room was so small, so shabby, yet it belonged to the illustrious Young Master of the Lin family. His life in the Lin family was worse than even the ordinary servants.

Their family owed him so much.

But now, except for her, no one in the Lin family cared for Xiao Xuan. His departure didn’t bring them even a shred of sadness or regret.

When she told others about Xiao Xuan’s life in the Lin family, they all thought he deserved it…

Lin Qingwan desperately wanted to understand Lin Xuan’s life within the Lin family. She opened his drawer and found a diary on top.

The diary was thick and old. Lin Qingwan opened it, and the pages inside were already yellowed, indicating that this diary had been kept for many years.

On the first page, it was written in uneven handwriting:

[Today is my ninth birthday. I finally bought a diary by collecting bottles. From now on, I’ll keep detailed records so I won’t forget what I’ve experienced. When my parents find me, they can understand my life through this diary.]
