Chapter 95: Prioritizing Lust Over Friendship
“Master Lin, should we inform Miss about this matter?” Butler Wang asked.
“Nah.” Former Xuan’s face darkened, “I wanna deal with him personally.”
Getting directly involved.
Following the proper procedures to send Ye Li to jail.
This’ll be a perfect chance for him to test how effective his martial arts training in that space has been.
And Ye Li would be his first guinea pig.
Butler Wang, seeing Lin Xuan like this, shivered, it was freezing.
After spending so much time with Lin Xuan, Butler Wang realized that despite his outwardly gentle demeanor, making people feel comfortable, he was actually quite devious.
Young Master Lin could sometimes be scarier than Miss.
—
A friend of Su Hua’s, well, more accurately, a woman who shamelessly wormed her way into becoming Su Hua’s friend.
Su Hua used to completely ignore her until she saved Su Hua, which led to her being tacitly accepted as a friend.
Xu Wenyue walked into the Night Garden, expecting chaos.
After all, there was a male demon lord locked up here who constantly wreaked havoc and frequently destroyed the valuable items in the Night Garden.
But oddly enough, Su Hua doted on him no matter what, and she never got angry at his antics.
In Xu Wenyue’s eyes, Su Hua’s feelings for Lin Xuan were like sticking a beautiful flower in a pile of cow dung.
When Xu Wenyue entered the Night Garden, she was utterly surprised.
What?
How come the Night Garden is so well-maintained?
Could it have just recovered from being wrecked by Lin Xuan?
“Miss Xu.”
“Miss Xu, hello.”
On the way, the servants greeted Xu Wenyue with smiles.
Xu Wenyue grew increasingly suspicious.
Every time she came before, these servants looked gloomy, but why did they seem so cheerful today?
Xu Wenyue grabbed one of the servants and asked, “Did something good happen in the Night Garden?”
“Yeah, every day is a good day,” the servant chuckled. Wasn’t it obvious? Now that Young Master Lin and Miss were inseparable, Miss was always in a great mood, even their bonuses had increased significantly.
Last month, she earned over twenty thousand yuan.
“What’s the big happy event?” Xu Wenyue couldn’t help but ask.
“Oh dear!” The servant slapped her forehead, “Look at my forgetfulness, I gotta hurry and deliver this stuff to someone. Miss Xu, I can’t chat with you anymore.”
The servant quickly left with the items.
Xu Wenyue walked into the villa and saw Brother Lin Xuan leisurely sitting with his legs crossed, eating fruit.
Lin Xuan glanced at Xu Wenyue and ignored her.
This Xu Wenyue kept brainwashing Hua Bao to leave him. Though the old Lin Xuan wasn’t worth Hua Bao’s affection, he held a grudge.
Xu Wenyue looked puzzled; why did Lin Xuan look so relaxed and carefree?
“Lin Xuan, why are you in the living room?” Xu Wenyue curiously asked. Lin Xuan used to lock himself in his room and never sat on the couch, casually watching his phone while munching on fruits.
Lin Xuan didn’t respond.
Xu Wenyue frowned again, “Lin Xuan, how are things between you and Su Hua now?”
As soon as she said that, Xu Wenyue shook her head.
What kind of nonsense question was that?
How could the relationship between Lin Xuan and Su Hua possibly be good?
It was already impressive if Lin Xuan didn’t stab Su Hua.
Lin Xuan still didn’t give her the time of day.
Lin Xuan’s attitude infuriated Xu Wenyue, and she shouted loudly, “Lin Xuan, are you even listening to me?”
Just then, Su Hua walked in, her brows furrowing.
“Why are you shouting so loud?” Her tone carried a hint of reproach.
Xu Wenyue’s expression soured.
Damn!
Su Hua must’ve heard!
Even if Lin Xuan had gone too far, Su Hua would still side with him.
Sigh, her best friend prioritized lust over friendship.
Brother Lin Xuan walked beside Su Hua, “Are you tired after working all morning?” His tone was filled with affection and tenderness.
Xu Wenyue: “???”
What’s going on?
Why was Lin Xuan treating her friend so kindly?
“Hmm, I’m tired.” Su Hua extended her hand towards Lin Xuan, “I’ve been typing all morning, my hands are sore.”
“I’ll massage them for you.” Lin Xuan skillfully started massaging Su Hua’s hands.
Xu Wenyue: “!!!!!!!”
These two…how come they looked so sweet and loving?
Xu Wenyue was startled by her own thoughts. Sweetness and love shouldn’t exist between Su Hua and Lin Xuan; their relationship was only about coercion and resistance.
But the scene before her suggested otherwise—they seemed to be surrounded by pink bubbles…
Lei Hui contacted Lin Xuan, who upon seeing the message on his phone, furrowed his brow, “Hua Bao, I have some business to handle upstairs. I’ve already prepared dinner for you, go ahead and eat.”
“Hmm.” Su Hua nodded.
After Lin Xuan went upstairs, Su Hua and Xu Wenyue sat across from each other at the dining table.
“Su Hua, what’s going on between you and Lin Xuan now?” Xu Wenyue asked. What happened during her two-month absence abroad?
Su Hua lifted her left hand and showed her the ring, “We’re in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.”
“Su Hua, don’t you think Lin Xuan might be faking it?” Xu Wenyue hesitated, “I suspect his kindness might be a ploy to get something from you, like stealing company secrets, harming you, or poisoning you.”
Judging from Lin Xuan’s words, he had cooked dinner for Su Hua tonight.
He might slip some slow-acting poison into her food.
“I trust him.”
Su Hua’s crimson lips curved into a smile, “I believe he genuinely wants to be kind to me. Even if it’s an act, I’d gladly accept it.”
Xu Wenyue: “…”
Well, women under the influence of love were impossible to reason with.
After finishing his business, Lin Xuan also came to the dining room.
During the meal, Lin Xuan resumed feeding Su Hua, just like he used to.
Xu Wenyue wanted to curse out loud.
Damn!
Do they have to be this disgustingly sweet?!
Xu Wenyue ordered the servants, “Please bring me a pair of chopsticks and a bowl.”
Strangely, whenever she visited in the past and meals were served, they always prepared utensils for her.
But this time, nothing was prepared. These servants in the Night Garden were getting less disciplined.
Upon hearing the order, the servant looked at Su Hua.
Su Hua gave a cold instruction, “No need to prepare anything.”
“Su Hua, when did you become so stingy? You won’t even share a meal with me!” Xu Wenyue was furious.
“Indeed, I wouldn’t.” Su Hua’s tone was indifferent, “Because everything here is personally made by Ah Xuan.”
She didn’t want any other woman besides herself to taste the food Ah Xuan had prepared.
!!!
Shit!
Xu Wenyue cursed countless times in her mind about her friend prioritizing lust over friendship.
“Fine, if you won’t let me eat, I’ll go find my young lovers,” she had about five or six or seven or eight or nine young men under her patronage, most of whom were in the entertainment industry.
This was also something Xu Wenyue couldn’t understand about Su Hua. With Su Hua’s status and wealth, owning a hundred men would be no problem.
Yet, why did she only have eyes for Lin Xuan, avoiding other men like venomous snakes?
