32: Su Qingge was going crazy: I can’t tell the difference, I really can’t tell the difference!!!

In the maiden's boudoir.

Lin Xuan's fingers, strumming the guitar, paused, the lingering notes swirling in the air.

Clap clap clap!!!

Chen Kexin, snapping back to reality, shook her twin pigtails and clapped furiously.

"So good, so good! As expected of the most devoted man in Magic City. Even the songs he sings are so heartfelt, though there's a hint of scoundrel in them..."

Lin Xuan: "..."

The little loli put away the recorder, then said goodbye to Lin Xuan, preparing to leave.

But just as she reached the door, as if remembering something, she suddenly stopped and turned back.

"What is it now? Hurry up and say it!"

Seeing Chen Kexin's somewhat fawning expression, Lin Xuan knew she definitely had a favor to ask him.

"Could you... find some time to be my temporary boyfriend?"

"Huh? No! No time!"

"Besides, I already have Qingge as my fiancée. And you want me to go be your temporary boyfriend? What kind of talk is that?!"

Before the little loli could explain, Lin Xuan shook his head repeatedly.

Although he wasn't clear on the situation... he was currently busy earning points, so how could he play some temporary boyfriend game with a little kid?

And Su Qingge, lying in bed, felt an instinctive surge of pleasure upon hearing Lin Xuan's unequivocal refusal.

[Ke Xin, you're going too far!]

[Lin Xuan is my fiancé, after all. How can you let him be your boyfriend?]

[And what's with 'temporary'? Is this something that can be temporarily borrowed?]

..."Oh! Alright."

Receiving the refusal, Chen Kexin wasn't surprised, tugging at her twin pigtails in distress. (ー`´ー)

"My parents are forcing me to meet Su Fan next week, my fiancé."

"But I'm only interested in the paper older brothers in the second dimension, and I can't go against my parents, so I thought about finding a fake boyfriend to put on a show..."

"I'll see if I can think of other ways! Sigh..."

Who?! Su Fan?

Isn't that the protagonist Su Yang's alias?

That's right!

Calculating the time, the plot should indeed be starting soon... In the original plot.

Chen Kexin did find someone else to pretend to be her boyfriend, intending to make Su Yang leave in anger.

But the rich second generation she ultimately found became the target of Su Yang's show-off and face-slapping.

And it was at that time... that Su Yang learned about his sister Su Qingge becoming a vegetative state...

Watching Chen Kexin's dejected figure leave, Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes and said:

"Wait, while I can't be a temporary boyfriend, I can go help you check him out as a friend..."

"If that guy is really unbearable, then I'll help you figure out a way to get rid of him."

[Really? You can't lie to me.]

Chen Kexin suddenly turned around, her face showing three parts joy, three parts excitement, and four parts disbelief.

"Why would I lie to you? |_・)..."

"Mainly, it's because you've worked so hard helping me manage my account, so I'll reluctantly give you a hand."

Lin Xuan said, his face unblushing and heart unwavering, with righteous indignation.

And Chen Kexin quickly believed and accepted this, instantly touched.

"Onii-chan~~ You're the best~~~"

"Stop, stop, stop, don't gross me out. Hurry up and go!"

"Oh! Then I'm leaving, Onii-chan~~~ Sayonara~~~"

Seeing Chen Kexin about to pounce on him after speaking.

Lin Xuan quickly waved his hand in refusal.

Seeing this, the little loli shrugged and skipped away.

In the dark prison of consciousness... Su Qingge was very surprised by Lin Xuan's change of mind.

[What's going on? Why did Lin Xuan agree? Wasn't he very reluctant to refuse just a second ago?]

[Could it really be to thank Ke Xin for her help? It's possible, but not very likely.]

[It seems he changed his mind after hearing the name of Ke Xin's fiancé.]

[Does he know that Su Fan?]

[Su Fan? He has the same surname as me...]

...Suddenly.

Su Qingge was somehow stirred into a memory, and she thought of her older brother Su Yang.

Her mood instantly became somber.

I miss you all so much!

Brother, are you and Mom and Dad doing well in heaven... As Su Qingge was secretly feeling sorrowful.

Lin Xuan had already sat back in his original seat, habitually taking the girl's hand, lost in thought.

The reason he agreed to Chen Kexin was actually very simple... he was just curious to meet the Son of Destiny in person.

To observe whether the other party was consistent with the character description in the plot.

And then finalize his next plan... Time flew by.

The entire day that followed.

Lin Xuan stayed by Su Qingge's bed, meticulously caring for her.

He hardly missed any opportunity to "stick close," except for eating, drinking, and using the restroom.

This scene of unwavering devotion, witnessed by Liu Juan and the other members of the Su Family, moved them all to tears.

"As expected of the most devoted man in Magic City, his reputation is well-deserved. Young Master Lin, he really... I'm so touched I could cry..."

"Who said husband and wife are like birds of the same forest, flying apart when disaster strikes? There are still good men and true love in this world!"

"I envy Miss so much! She found a good man because of a misfortune. If my future husband is even half as good as Young Master Lin, I'll be content."

...

After this period of getting along.

They had almost all accepted Lin Xuan, the son-in-law who was about to move in.

Lin Xuan, with his unwavering "devotion," gained the collective approval of the entire Su Family... And until night fell.

Lin Xuan still stayed by the bedside, "sticking close," occasionally talking to Su Qingge...

"Qingge, do you know what kind of book you can't buy in a bookstore?"

[A book you can't buy? Not available in a regular bookstore... Is it that kind of book...]

"The answer is: a will!"

[...]

"Newton was hit by a falling apple and discovered gravity. If you stood under a peach tree and waited to be hit by a peach, what would you discover?"

[You wouldn't discover anything! There's only one Newton, and only such a great man can discover truth.]

"The answer is: you'd discover your head hurts a bit."

[...]

"If I found a wife who could help me with half the housework, what do you think I should do?"

[Then you should dote on her. You'd be responsible for the other half of the housework!]

"The answer is: find two wives! That way, one person does half the housework, which is perfectly fair."

[...]

Several bizarre questions in a row almost made Su Qingge's Dao Heart collapse.

Later, she simply self-shielded.

She no longer answered Lin Xuan's words in her mind.

Click!

Just as Lin Xuan was having a blast, the door to the room was pushed open.

Who could it be now?

Lin Xuan curiously turned his head and saw an old man with white hair, slowly walking in with a cane.

"Hmm? Grandpa Su, why are you free today!"

"It's all thanks to you! Xiao Xuan, if it weren't for you last night... sigh, the Su Family might have... sigh..."

On the hospital bed.

Hearing her grandfather's voice, Su Qingge was originally very happy.

After all, Su Shengtian had been busy with official duties lately and hadn't come to see her for several days.

But the next second.

Su Shengtian's ambiguous words made Su Qingge utterly speechless and a little frantic.

[Last night? Why is it 'last night' again? What exactly happened last night?]

[Grandpa, why are you also like Ke Xin, becoming a riddle-solver! You like to speak in broken sentences...]

[Can't you just be straightforward?]

[What exactly happened last night? I really want to know!]

[But what you're saying...]

[I don't understand! I really don't understand!!!]
