Chapter 66: Brother Lin Xuan and Su Zong…

Shao Xingfan couldn’t help but ask, “Secretary Wang, do you really know what Sister Su sees in Brother Lin Xuan? And you, it seems like you have a pretty good impression of him.”

“You’re not Su Zong, so naturally you wouldn’t understand why she likes Lin Xuan. Su Zong doesn’t want some guy who stands shoulder-to-shoulder with her; she wants someone she genuinely likes, someone who can protect her and give her warmth.”

“As for me,” Jiang Qing smiled faintly, “as long as he treats Su Zong well, I’ll think highly of him too.” Love by association is exactly like that.

“Xiao Shao, if you seriously get to know Lin Xuan, your impression of him will improve too.” Jiang Qing gave another smile.

Shao Xingfan’s expression remained full of disdain.

Just a useless guy. Him improving his impression? Hilarious!

Jiang Qing raised an eyebrow slightly. She was looking forward to the day when Shao Xingfan got proven wrong.

Even though Shao Xingfan didn’t much like Lin Xuan, since Lin Xuan was the man Su Hua liked, on the surface, he still had to show respect towards him.

Following Su Hua’s orders, he diligently investigated Lin Xuan’s novel.

Within just an hour, he returned to Su Hua’s office.

“Su Zong, it’s all clear now. It was the Feiyue Station side. They fired the editor responsible for Young Master Lin and reassigned him under another editor. When Young Master Lin refused, they pulled his novel from the platform.”

Su Hua narrowed her eyes, a storm brewing within them.

Her fingertips tapped rhythmically against the desk.

Shao Xingfan knew—someone was about to be screwed over.

“Call Bai Linjiang over here,” Su Hua ordered.

Shao Xingfan frowned. Su Zong truly valued Lin Xuan—if it were such a trivial matter, Bai Linjiang wouldn’t need to handle it personally.

“Yes, Su Zong,” Shao Xingfan responded, leaving shortly after. Not long later, Bai Linjiang arrived at Su Hua’s office.

“Su Zong,” he respectfully greeted.

“I have an important task for you,” Su Hua said.

Bai Linjiang’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

Anything personally assigned by Su Zong must be super important! There must be a huge case awaiting him to solve.

Of course, that time when he was sent to Shangqing University to deal with a student brawl didn’t count.

Su Hua: “Go check out Feiyue Station’s contract, find their mistakes, sue them, and also help uphold the rights of their authors. One novel written by Ah Xuan, terminate its contract with Feiyue Station.”

“The novel by Ah Xuan is excellent; he’s very talented and shouldn’t have been taken off the shelves like this,” Su Hua said proudly.

Bai Linjiang: “… Does a station’s contract really require my personal intervention?”

Wait a second, Ah Xuan?

“Su Zong, are you talking about Brother Lin Xuan’s novel?”

“Hmm,” Su Hua nodded.

Bai Linjiang became excited.

He wasn’t interested in small cases like this, but if it involved Lin Xuan, he’d take it!

Lin Xuan was someone Su Zong cared about, so clinging onto his coattails would never hurt!

Still…

“Su Zong, Feiyue Station is the biggest platform. If Young Master Lin wishes to write novels, Feiyue Station isn’t a bad place. Perhaps I could negotiate with them and get his novel relisted. I’m sure they won’t dare underestimate Young Master Lin anymore,” Bai Linjiang suggested.

“No need,” Su Hua replied coldly, “my man should never endure any委屈. If Feiyue Station can’t accommodate him, then he won’t stay there.”

“If he loves writing novels, then I’ll build him a platform.”

Bai Linjiang was astonished.

What girlfriend power from Su Zong!

With her pampering, Brother Lin would surely ascend to heaven!

“Yes, Su Zong, I’ll go handle it right away,” Bai Linjiang retreated.

News about Lin Xuan moving into a small villa spread quickly.

[Big Gossip King: Shocking news! Lin Xuan moved into the same small villa where the president of Suzhou Group lives! According to my investigation, Lin Xuan moved in that day itself. What a coincidence! I wonder what their relationship is? Could it be…]

This post blew up instantly, sparking heated discussions.

[Holy cow! Lin Xuan suddenly started driving Koenigseggs and Rolls-Royces. Could it be because of Su Zong?]

[Too terrifying… If true, Lin Xuan is really something else to have snagged even the beautiful president of Suzhou Group!]

[Someone please tell me—is it true?]

[So, does this mean Lin Xuan no longer lingers around Qin Ruoyao like a love slave because he has a girlfriend like Su Zong? Honestly, if Su Zong notices you, who would still care about Qin Ruoyao?]

Now Lin Xuan was already a big figure at school, while Su Hua was a top tycoon. Her looks, figure, and abilities were all top-notch. Any gossip involving the two of them drew intense discussion.

The forum homepage was filled with posts about them. The original exposé received over three thousand replies in just ten minutes.

When Qin Ruoyao saw these posts, her face turned sour.

She switched to a different account and began arguing against those who belittled her and praised Su Hua.

[You guys don’t understand anything! Lin Xuan has always liked Qin Ruoyao and never anyone else.]

[He chased after Qin Ruoyao for years. How could he stop liking her so easily? Even if he’s currently with someone else, his heart will always belong to Qin Ruoyao.]

Many people disagreed with Qin Ruoyao’s statements and started arguing back.

The forum split into two factions—one claiming Lin Xuan liked Su Hua, the other insisting he loved Qin Ruoyao.

After learning about this through Wang Dahé, Lin Xuan posted a reply on the forum.

[I used to like Qin Ruoyao, but I don’t anymore, and I won’t in the future either.]

However, he didn’t dare confirm or deny his relationship with Su Hua. Su Hua usually disliked media attention, and she probably wouldn’t want their relationship exposed.

Lin Xuan neither confirmed nor denied his connection with Su Hua.

Students at school started speculating wildly.

[Lin Xuan denied any relationship with Qin Ruoyao but didn’t deny Su Hua. Could they really be together?]

[Not necessarily. Maybe Lin Xuan just likes her. He might be happy seeing everyone say they’re a good match.]

Satisfied with these replies, Lin Xuan achieved the ambiguous effect he wanted, which could keep many admirers at bay.

Ye Li, upon seeing everyone guessing Lin Xuan and Su Hua’s relationship, felt insanely jealous.

Why Lin Xuan? Why did Su Hua like Lin Xuan?

Su Hua’s man should be him, not Lin Xuan!

A cold glint flashed in Ye Li’s eyes. He would definitely snatch Su Hua back!

During PE class,

The two met. Ye Li’s face was grim. “Lin Xuan, you don’t actually believe Su Zong likes you, do you?”

“What if I do?” Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow.

“Hmph, Su Zong only sees you as her plaything. You’ve always defied her before, thinking what you can’t get is the best. Now she’s just enjoying the novelty. You’ll be discarded soon enough.” Ye Li said spitefully, knowing fully well Su Hua wouldn’t abandon Lin Xuan anytime soon.

He said this purely to make Lin Xuan uncomfortable.

As long as Lin Xuan was unhappy, he’d feel satisfied.
