Chapter 22

~4 min read 728 words

2:00 AM.

The crescent moon hung high.

Inside a bright study.

"You mean that all afternoon today, Xiao Xuan stayed by Qingge's side?"

Su Shengtian, with silver hair all over his head.

Was carefully inquiring about Lin Xuan's news.

He had just dragged his exhausted body home and hurriedly asked Liu Juan to understand the situation.

"Yes. Mr. Lin... he is quite concerned about the Young Lady; at least on the surface, it doesn't look like he is putting on a show."

"But this seems a bit strange. After all, Mr. Lin and the Young Lady had no interaction before, but now they are a bit too enthusiastic upon their first meeting..."

"It feels too fast; it's unlikely for a normal person to invest feelings so quickly..."

Liu Juan pondered for a moment and answered truthfully.

At the same time, she spoke directly about some of her doubts.

In her eyes.

The more considerate Lin Xuan was, the more obvious the sense of putting on a show became...

"I see. Xiao Liu, observe Xiao Xuan's conduct more during this period, and report to me immediately if there is any situation."

"Yes, Chairman!"

Su Shengtian gave a few more instructions before waving for Liu Juan to leave.

Click!

When the door was closed and the study returned to silence!

Su Shengtian then leaned on his cane and staggered back to the sofa.

His wrinkled old face was full of exhaustion.

Regarding Lin Xuan.

Su Shengtian was also somewhat worried.

After all, the other party's reputation in Magic City before was indeed not very good.

It was just that now, in order to perform the marriage for good luck for his granddaughter, he could only force him into the position.

The only fortunate thing was!

According to the current situation, Lin Xuan did not seem as bad as rumored.

However, he still had to observe more; if Lin Xuan was really putting on a show...

Then as time passed, he would definitely show his true colors.

"Sigh, I hope I didn't misjudge the person! In that case..."

"Even if this old bone of mine can't hold on, my poor granddaughter won't be left without anyone to take care of her in the second half of her life..."

One night passed without incident.

The next day.

Lin Xuan went out early in the morning.

When he returned to the Su family again, he was holding a large bouquet of purple flowers.

Violets.

Su Qingge's favorite flower variety.

"Qingge, I've come to see you."

"I also brought you my favorite flowers!"

Lin Xuan couldn't wait to push open the door and sat down in front of the hospital bed.

He placed the violets in his hand on Su Qingge's bedside.

His hands naturally held the girl's little hands.

【Ding! Host "cuddles" with Su Qingge's "palm," rewarding 1 point/18 seconds.】

Hearing the system prompt.

Watching the points panel in his mind start to jump.

Lin Xuan's mood suddenly became very good.

At this speed.

He would soon be able to accumulate enough points to redeem the skill 【Masterful Painting and Calligraphy Massage Method】.

And with this skill, he could legitimately perform more intimate "cuddles."

Presumably, the points obtained then would be more, and the speed would be faster...

Wait!

Speed?!

Suddenly, Lin Xuan realized belatedly.

Only then did he realize that the points panel was jumping by 1 point every 18 seconds.

"System, what's the situation? Wasn't it 1 point every 20 seconds yesterday?"

【Ding! The higher the favorability, the faster the host can obtain points.】

So that's how it is...

It seems that his actions yesterday still brushed up quite a bit of favorability.

Lin Xuan was lost in thought.

He felt he had to find a way to brush up Su Qingge's favorability...

On the other side.

Inside the dark cage of consciousness.

Su Qingge, who was originally numb and dizzy, also noticed Lin Xuan's arrival.

【He's here again...】

【And he brought me my favorite violets...】

Smelling the familiar fragrance of violets beside her head.

Su Qingge's heart was much calmer.

She didn't expect Lin Xuan's hobbies to be the same as hers.

They actually both liked violets.

"Qingge, do you know the flower language and meaning of violets?"

"I guess you definitely don't know!"

Lin Xuan's low voice sounded again.

【Who doesn't know...】

【The one who doesn't know is you!】
