Chapter 25: Chapter 25 The Swindler and The Fool



"Ms. Lin, I've always liked Sara and would love to join in on the fun,"

Su Chen said to Lin Ruoxue with a teasing smile, winking secretly at her.

Lin Ruoxue's recently calmed face once again flushed slightly; this guy, always acting up, even in front of others.

Yet Lin Ruoxue found Su Chen's words a bit odd; didn't this guy know that Liu Qing harbored ill intentions towards his wife?

Was this jerk trying to get rid of himself quickly so he could go enjoy himself?

However, if that were the case, he shouldn't have suggested going along; what exactly was he up to?

Lin Ruoxue couldn't quite figure out Su Chen's thoughts, but she did understand the meaning behind his wink just now.

"All right, you can come with us," Lin Ruoxue nodded slightly.

"It wouldn't be proper to bring him, and moreover, I only have two tickets, and the tickets for Sara's concert sold out a long time ago."

Once Liu Qing heard Lin Ruoxue was planning to bring this construction-worker-like driver, he instantly became wary.

Under normal circumstances, a driver would never make such a request, yet he did.

What was even stranger was that Lin Ruoxue just agreed, causing Liu Qing to immediately realize there was something unusual about the relationship between the two.

He couldn't understand why Lin Ruoxue would hold such a guy in a different regard, which made him somewhat annoyed and jealous.

But what shocked him even more was that Lin Ruoxue went on to say directly, "Then I won't go either."

Su Chen looked at Lin Ruoxue, suddenly feeling the urge to hold her and give her a good kiss; his wife was usually quite indifferent towards him, yet she defended him so staunchly at this crucial moment.

"Don't worry, I have a friend at the ticket center; I can get the tickets," Su Chen said with a light smile.

"That's great; then I'll come pick up both of you this evening."

Liu Qing forced himself to appear very happy, though if it weren't for Lin Ruoxue's resolute attitude, he wouldn't want to deal with such an annoying guy like Su Chen.

"No need, we'll just meet at the theater entrance tonight,"

Lin Ruoxue stood up and said, a clear indication she was seeing him out. Liu Qing naturally didn't want to be kicked out, claiming he had other matters and left.

"What did you mean just now?"

Once again, only Lin Ruoxue and Su Chen were left in the office; Lin Ruoxue's face was once more covered in frost.

"I only said that because you seemed to want to go, okay? Why are you treating me like a dog biting Lv Dongbin?"

Su Chen pouted, speaking nonchalantly.

"Can't you see, can't you see…"

"Can't see what?"

Suddenly, Su Chen walked over to the opposite side of Lin Ruoxue's desk, leaning forward with his hands braced on the desk, a mischievous smile on his lips.

Lin Ruoxue immediately smelled the faint masculine scent emanating from Su Chen, and seeing his rascally grin so close to her own, her heart trembled, and her cheeks grew hotter.

Lin Ruoxue intended to say, don't you realize that Liu Qing harbors ulterior motives for your wife? But she felt too embarrassed to voice it out.

"Are you saying he harbors inappropriate thoughts towards you?"

"If you saw through it, why did you still let me go?"

"I let you go because you wanted to, and as for that Liu Qing, if he behaves himself, fine, otherwise..."

A fierce glint flashed in Su Chen's eyes, and then he switched his expression, saying with a smile,

"Wife, you're defending me so much today, you couldn't have really fallen for me, could you?"

"You're overthinking it..."

Lin Ruoxue felt a bit flustered. She still wasn't accustomed to Su Chen suddenly speaking to her in such a manner, leaving her somewhat at a loss.

Lin Ruoxue's defense of Su Chen today wasn't due to strong feelings for him; it was simply because she was traditionally minded, following the adage of 'where you go, I go' regardless of the circumstances.

"Also, don't do anything rash. Liu Qing is the heir of the Liu Family, not someone you can provoke, and even our Lin Family doesn't dare to mess with them."

"Psh, it doesn't matter who he is; if he dares to lay a finger on my wife, he's asking for death," Su Chen shrugged, unperturbed.

"Stop calling me 'wife'. It sounds terrible," Lin Ruoxue frowned, still uncomfortable with the term.

Despite this, Su Chen's words had made her feel something unusual, a feeling she had never experienced before.

"The Liu Family is one of the Four Great Families. The Four Great Families are not as simple as you think. Even if something happens, you mustn't act impulsively!"

Lin Ruoxue was worried Su Chen wouldn't understand the gravity of the situation and might cause a disaster, so she warned him solemnly.

After leaving Lin Ruoxue's office, Su Chen found an old phone number and dialed it...

....

Huáng Hotel was situated in the bustling heart of Jianghai City; it was the only six-star hotel in the city, and its clientele was exclusively the wealthy and distinguished.

At this moment, in a presidential suite of Huáng Hotel, a woman in a long white dress was silently gazing at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, her expression filled with longing.

"I've come, come to your kingdom, but where are you?"

"Sara, are you thinking about that man again? I've told you countless times; he might just be a fraud. After all these years, he has never looked for you."

The middle-aged woman beside her was also at a loss; she couldn't understand what kind of man could make this princess so obsessed.

"Maybe, even if he's a fraud, I'm willing to be the fool who got tricked," a playful smile appeared on the woman's peerless face, which then turned melancholic, "but he didn't even give me the chance to be fooled. Perhaps, in his heart, he genuinely sees me only as a sister."

"Sara, Prince Kaila is deeply in love with you, following you around the world on tour. Why can't you give him a chance? Maybe if you start a new relationship, you could forget him."

"Julia, you don't understand, once you've met certain people, it's impossible to make room for anyone else in your heart."

The woman shook her head; she couldn't let go, nor did she want to.

"Oh, I almost forgot to tell you, Prince Kaila has arranged a celebration banquet for you, after tonight's concert."

Julia said as she gently tapped her forehead, but she knew it was to no avail; Sara wasn't likely to attend.

As expected, the woman shook her head, saying, "Forget it, it will be too late after the concert. I'd better not go."

Just then, the sound of a cellphone ringing broke the silence, emanating from the bedroom inside. The ring tone was unusual; Julia, who had been with her for two years, had never heard it before.

Julia couldn't help but feel puzzled; this wasn't the ringtone of Sara's usual phone. Could it be that she had another phone Julia knew nothing about?

While Julia was grappling with her doubts, Sara, lifting the hem of her white dress, dashed past her like a gust of wind and rushed into the bedroom...
