Chapter 842: Chapter 842 Do You Deserve It?
Today, Su Lingyu was dressed simply, with light makeup, yet it made her appear pure with a hint of allure, like a delicate lotus emerging from the water.
At first glance, Han Chen’s eyes could not help but burst with a bright sparkle.
He had seen many "pure" girls, but most of those were pretentious. As a seasoned player in love, he could tell real from fake just by looking into their eyes.
Su Lingyu was different; her eyes were pure, untainted by the mundane.
The purer she was, the more she aroused Han Chen’s excitement.
However, his outward demeanor was very restrained, resembling a courteous gentleman as he greeted Su Lingyu, chatting and laughing, with words supremely appropriate.
The surrounding guests, including Su Dazhong, were unable to see through the darkness in Han Chen’s heart.
However, Han Chen noticed that Su Lingyu’s attitude towards him was clearly polite yet distant, even carrying a hint of coldness, more so than the last time they met. At the same time, he also noticed a hint of affection in Su Lingyu’s eyes, but it was not meant for him.
It was this very hint of affection that created a barrier between Su Lingyu and him.
"This woman has fallen for someone else?!"
That was Han Chen’s first thought, and beyond his surprise, he couldn’t help but feel some anger.
In his view, Su Lingyu ought to be his exclusive delicacy!
From a distance, Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze turned to Su Lingyu.
The Micro Expression Analysis System activated, reading her inner thoughts from her expressions and transforming them into "sounds" that echoed in his mind.
"This man is so annoying!"
"I don’t like him!"
"Why does my dad always try to matchmake me with him!"
"I like someone else, he’s a hundred times better than this man!"
"Where is that guy?"
"Come and help me out!"
As the "sounds" of Su Lingyu’s voice arose, her eyes searched around, eventually meeting Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze.
"So, you are here."
"Come and save me!"
Bai Xiaosheng was astonished. Su Lingyu liked him?
Bai Xiaosheng thought back to the day before and couldn’t help but wryly smile. He had acted perhaps too well, even inadvertently executing a heroic rescue, which naturally could win a woman’s heart.
Su Lingyu was moved, and so was Jiang Yue by his side.
"But given yesterday’s situation, I couldn’t just stand by, I couldn’t simply ignore it and not lend a hand," Bai Xiaosheng sighed inwardly.
Han Chen watched as Su Lingyu looked in a particular direction, and the hint of affection in her eyes suddenly brightened.
His eyes narrowed instantly, looking in that direction.
The man Su Lingyu liked was actually here too! Damn it, competing with me for a woman! I must see who this paragon is!
Han Chen looked towards Bai Xiaosheng, and Bai Xiaosheng also made eye contact with him.
"Is it this guy competing with me for the girl!"
"This woman is mine, mine!"
"I must have her; she is my plaything!"
"Don’t touch my prey; this prey is mine!"
Bai Xiaosheng’s brows furrowed slightly.
The Micro Expression Analysis System, with its curated vocabulary, could most directly express a person’s true intentions.
As Han Chen’s voice rang out, words like "plaything" and "prey" reappeared, with even some terms referring to reproductive organs.
"What does he take Su Lingyu for!" Bai Xiaosheng’s brows furrowed, his gaze instantly sharp.
Although indifferent towards Su Lingyu, having witnessed the girl’s purity and kindness, he would never allow a scoundrel to harm her!
Bai Xiaosheng stood up and walked straight towards that direction.
Mr. Jiang Yue, by his side, was taken aback and then quietly called out, "Hey, what are you doing?"
Jiang Yue had already noticed Su Lingyu and Han Chen looking over, as well as their eye contact with Bai Xiaosheng, which was why she was startled.
With just one exchange of glances, Bai Xiaosheng was heading over, and it couldn’t be that he was about to cause a scene!
"This person claims he has a girlfriend, but how comes Susu can command him with just a glance!"
Jiang Yue was annoyed in her heart and quickly followed.
Seeing Bai Xiaosheng coming over, Su Lingyu’s expression distinctly changed, and she even revealed a hint of a smile.
Han Chen saw it all and his anger intensified.
Su Dazhong also noticed the change in expressions of these young people. Following his daughter’s gaze, he caught sight of Bai Xiaosheng, and his heart skipped a beat.
"Xiaoyu, that, go check on the kitchen, see how the meal preparation is going," Su Dazhong said, trying to send Su Lingyu away in an emergency.
However, Su Lingyu didn’t hear him.
The guests mingling about also noticed the anomaly and saw a young man coming over, immediately their curiosity rose and they quietly started discussing.
"Who is that?"
"I heard he’s a friend of Su Lingyu."
"Just a regular friend?"
"Dazhong says... but I don’t think it looks like it."
...
Yan Xuefei also seemed to hear the commotion, standing at the kitchen door glancing over, no expression shown.
"Xiaoyu, who is this?" Han Chen asked with a smile, taking the initiative to speak.
"Mr. Han, Brother Bai is my friend," Su Lingyu said with a sweet smile, moving closer to stand by Bai Xiaosheng’s side.
One term of address, and their intimacy was clear, especially as Su Lingyu stood very close to Bai Xiaosheng.
Han Chen’s expression subtly changed.
In the past, whenever he made his move, it was always successful! At the very least, he wouldn’t lose to another man upon first meeting.
The way Su Lingyu called out "Brother Bai" was overly affectionate, spurring quiet discussions among the surrounding guests.
"Could it be that Su Lingyu has taken a fancy to this young man?"
"This kid has been here all this time, and old Su never mentioned him; seems quite ordinary!"
"The kids are grown, they have their own ideas now, seems like the parents can’t control them."
Amidst these discussions, Han Chen took a deep breath, smiled at Bai Xiaosheng, and stretched out his hand, saying modestly and politely, "Hello, my name is Han Chen, a friend of Xiaoyu, and I am pursuing her!"
At such a moment, Han Chen boldly spoke out, seizing the initiative.
His words not only surprised Su Lingyu but also brightened Su Dazhong’s eyes.
"Haha, the young people these days, if they like someone, they say it outright, straightforward!"
"Impressive, much more daring than in our time!"
"Yeah, not bad, the kid’s got guts!"
Many guests praised him endlessly.
Bai Xiaosheng looked at Han Chen’s hand and didn’t move an inch.
In his mind, however, he heard Han Chen cursing him, extremely unpleasant "curses."
To be frank, Bai Xiaosheng had come here only thinking of defusing the situation, and then looking for a chance to inform Su Lingyu that Han Chen was not a good match.
But now, face to face with Han Chen "cursing" him, Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes turned cold.
"Mr. Han!" Bai Xiaosheng pushed Han Chen’s hand away, then raised his voice and said coldly, "Pursuing Xiaoyu? Are you worthy?"
"Or better yet, go settle your romantic debts first!"
At Bai Xiaosheng’s words, the entire room was stunned.
Han Chen’s gaze sharply narrowed.
Bai Xiaosheng’s mind was flooded with Han Chen’s voice.
Bai Xiaosheng calmly said, "You’re wondering how I know? Let me tell you, one of my female friends was just deceived by you. In this past year, how many women have you dated? Min, Ling, Meiyu, Siqi..."
Bai Xiaosheng rattled them off one by one.
Han Chen, originally brimming with rage, felt like he had seen a ghost upon hearing those nicknames.
"You, how do you know, who are you!"
