Su Hai stared at Lin Xuan in shock.
After finishing his words, Lin Xuan calmly severed Su Hai’s neck, separating his head from his body.
This time, it was Lin Xuan who was splattered with blood.
Su Hai’s lifeless eyes still burned with resentment.
The bodyguards and Butler Wang were all dumbfounded.
Holy crap!
Young Master Lin looked so gentle and soft, yet he could decapitate Su Hai without batting an eye!
Hiss…
They had underestimated Young Master Lin. A man who could win the young lady’s heart was no ordinary person.
“Take him away,” Lin Xuan ordered. “And clean this place up.”
Su Hua’s gaze never left Lin Xuan.
“A-Xuan, why… aren’t you afraid of me?” Su Hua asked, her voice trembling. She had thought he would run away from her again this time.
She knew all too well how terrifying her acts of killing were, so she had never dared to let him see that side of her.
“Hua Bao, you’re my girlfriend. I love every side of you,” Lin Xuan said with a gentle smile. “And look at me.”
He raised his blood-stained hands.
“I’ve killed someone too, Su Hua. We’re the same kind of people.”
Butler Wang smiled with satisfaction.
Indeed, they were the same kind of people. The young lady’s twisted love had rubbed off on her boyfriend. Not bad, not bad at all.
A glimmer of light sparkled in Su Hua’s eyes.
Her A-Xuan was truly wonderful. The more she saw of him like this, the harder it was for her to let him go.
“Hua Bao, let’s go freshen up first,” Lin Xuan said softly.
“Okay.”
Su Hua obediently let Lin Xuan lead her upstairs.
Hong Yuanjie frowned. “Butler Wang, is this man the master’s…”
“He’s the young lady’s beloved. Let’s just say, you don’t want to mess with him. The reason Su Hai was tortured by the young lady was because he sent people to capture Young Master Lin,” Butler Wang replied with a smile.
“Butler Wang, what exactly is his identity?”
“No matter what his identity is, he’s the man the young lady loves. Mr. Hong, I hope you’ll watch your step and not provoke him,” Butler Wang warned.
Hong Yuanjie’s face darkened.
Didn’t that just mean his background was ordinary?
Judging by the master’s reaction, this man had no experience with violence or conflict. How could someone so weak be worthy of the master?
From their conversation, he also learned that Su Hai had been captured because he had sent people to attack Lin Xuan.
Su Hai was dead, but what about the others?
Couldn’t someone else use this man to threaten the young lady?
Having such a weak man by the master’s side would only be a burden!
Upstairs.
Lin Xuan and Su Hua took a quiet bath together.
“Su Hua, wait here for me. I’ll be back soon,” Lin Xuan said, gently seating Su Hua on the sofa in the bedroom.
Lin Xuan quickly went downstairs and brought up the cake, rings, and roses.
Under Su Hua’s astonished gaze, Lin Xuan knelt on one knee before her, holding the roses.
He opened a red box, revealing a pair of dazzling rings.
Su Hua’s pupils contracted sharply.
“Su Hua,” Lin Xuan said tenderly, “will you be my girlfriend? I will love you, protect you, and stay by your side for the rest of my life.”
A flicker of disappointment crossed Su Hua’s eyes.
Just… a girlfriend.
She had thought…
Indeed, she was becoming greedier. Before, she would have been satisfied if he treated her kindly, but now she wanted more—marriage, children.
Still, being his girlfriend… that was enough.
“Yes,” Su Hua replied with a smile, extending her hand. Lin Xuan slid the ring onto her middle finger.
The ring on her middle finger signified that she was in a passionate relationship.
Lin Xuan also wore an identical ring on his left middle finger.
“Hua Bao,” Lin Xuan whispered, planting a gentle kiss on Su Hua’s forehead. “I wanted to give you this ring on your birthday, but I hadn’t earned enough money yet. I wanted to use my own earnings to give you a birthday gift.”
Su Hua blinked.
In the past, she had always been the one taking the initiative. This time, it seemed the roles had reversed, with A-Xuan taking the lead.
Mmm… she was liking this more and more.
Lin Xuan brought out the cake and lit the candles. “Hua Bao, make a wish.”
Su Hua’s lips curved into a faint smile.
On her last birthday, A-Xuan had also made her a cake, but she had been too unwell to enjoy it.
The next day, Butler Wang told her that the cake had been made by A-Xuan himself. Even though it had gone bad, she had eaten a large piece of it.
How could she waste something A-Xuan had made for her?
Even though it had left her with a stomachache for the rest of the day.
This was the first time Su Hua had celebrated her birthday. She made a wish, blew out the candles, and after eating a small piece of cake, Lin Xuan gently pushed her onto the carpet.
Su Hua stared blankly at the man above her.
A-Xuan, what are you…
Lin Xuan whispered in her ear, his voice low, “There’s one more birthday gift… and that’s me.”
“Hua Bao, I’m giving myself to you. From now on, I, Lin Xuan, belong to you.”
He leaned down and captured Su Hua’s crimson lips with his own.
Su Hua’s soft hands instinctively wrapped around his neck.
As they kissed, the temperature in the room began to rise.
Soon, the sound of their passion filled the air.
At 5:30, the chef finished preparing dinner.
A maid came to the second floor, but Butler Wang stopped her. “What are you doing here?”
“Butler Wang, I was going to call the young lady and Young Master Lin for dinner,” the maid replied.
“Do you have no sense of timing?” Butler Wang glared at her. “Do you think you can disturb Young Master Lin and the young lady? Don’t ruin their moment!”
He was already dreaming of a little young master.
The young maid didn’t fully understand Butler Wang’s words, but she didn’t dare disobey. She quickly retreated.
“Xiao Liu, I was going to call the young lady for dinner, but Butler Wang told me not to ruin their moment. What exactly is going on?” the maid asked, confused.
Another maid smirked.
“It’s what happens between a man and a woman, of course.”
“Like this.”
She tapped her index fingers together.
The maid instantly understood. They were kissing!
She patted her chest, feeling a wave of relief.
Thank goodness she hadn’t knocked on the door. If she had interrupted the young lady’s mood, she would have been in big trouble.
Since practicing martial arts, Lin Xuan’s stamina and endurance had improved significantly, but he was still completely drained by the end.
Su Hua was too alluring, and she had even brought out five or six sets of seductive outfits that left him utterly captivated.
The air was still thick with the scent of their passion.
Su Hua lay on Lin Xuan’s chest, gazing at his handsome face with a satisfied smile.
Her A-Xuan was so wonderful now…
She truly hoped things could stay like this forever…
Su Hua stared at Lin Xuan for a while longer before closing her eyes, holding him tightly as she drifted into a deep sleep.
