Yang Yuxin Wants Some Candy

Yang Yuxin stood frozen in place, not hearing a word from the surrounding officers. In a huff, she turned and stormed back, leaving behind the puzzled officers who still hadn't grasped the situation.

Inside the room, upon hearing Yang Danxuan's words, a question arose in Su Chen's heart. Is this some kind of indirect rejection? His pride was hurt at that moment. Angrily, he finally realized the truth — that these leading ladies didn't actually like him. Perhaps they were trying to provoke the male lead, Qin Yu, in this manner. However, what concerned Su Chen now was not these leading ladies, but rather the potential moves of their powerful families behind the scenes. But, for the time being, there didn't seem to be any visible threats.

"Ah!" Yang Danxuan tried to place the fruit on the table, but slipped, tumbling right onto Su Chen. "Ouch!" Su Chen blinked, thinking, "You've landed on top of me, and before I could even say anything, you're already exclaiming in pain?" She exclaimed, "Oh my, I think I sat on something hard!" Confused, Su Chen frowned, wondering what kind of joke this was. "Oh, it's the remote control. It really hurt,"

Yang Danxuan said, touching her buttock and laughing awkwardly. Su Chen was speechless. Ma'am, please be careful with your words! He thought, exasperated. Not only was she speaking without thinking, but she was also doing it so loudly as if wanting everyone outside to hear. What if we're misunderstood? He pondered. I'm the villainous side character, and I don't want to be the subject of envy.

Su Chen had come to a realization; continuing this way might not ignite the animosity he was aiming for. With his years of understanding these leading ladies, now was the perfect time to anger them. "Yang Danxuan, in my heart, it's not just Lin Qingyan that I care about. I wish you could be with me too," he declared. Su Chen chuckled, "Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Each of the leading ladies would despise the kind of behavior he had just displayed.

This was a strategy he had reliably used over the years. Women are like that; unless they're not angry, once they become infuriated, it's like a storm. If Yang Danxuan were to reject him, he would threaten her using the status of the Su family. He didn't believe that Yang Danxuan would agree to such a proposition.

Upon hearing Su Chen's response, joy was evident on Yang Danxuan's face, her heart fluttering. Su Chen didn't only have Lin Qingyan in his heart after all. Just as she was about to agree, there was a sudden bang, and the door was kicked open. Yang Yuxin appeared at the doorway, her face cold and her gaze filled with rage, having clearly overheard their entire conversation.

At this moment, Su Chen felt an inexplicable panic, as if he had been caught cheating, and with siblings no less. What Su Chen didn't realize was that Yang Yuxin had not only heard what he had just said but also Yang Danxuan's previous screams. She was furious beyond measure!

"Su Chen, you bastard, how dare you confess to another woman!" Yang Yuxin exclaimed. "You clearly told me you liked me, so how could you confess to Yang Danxuan? She's my elder sister, after all." At this moment, Yang Yuxin felt an immense sense of injustice. The person she liked had confessed to the sister she cherished the most. Such a feeling was unbearable for anyone.

Seeing Yang Yuxin's reaction, Su Chen was at a loss for words.

[Yang Yuxin, why are you crying? It's not like I've stopped liking you,]

[Come to think of it, why are you angry? You shouldn't feel anything, and it should be Yang Danxuan who's upset. Both of your reactions seem off.]

Yang Yuxin quickly collected herself, almost being deceived by Su Chen's act. She coldly stared at Su Chen, silently making a new decision in her heart. Although she knew Su Chen still had feelings for her, she thought she might need to be more assertive, or problems might arise later. With these thoughts, Yang Yuxin observed Su Chen with renewed interest.

Of course, Yang Danxuan witnessed the scene unfolding before her. Initially, upon hearing Su Chen's confession, she began to tremble, thinking she might have a chance. She genuinely wanted to tell Su Chen without hesitation that she liked him. However, when Yang Yuxin entered, her resolve wavered. Yang Danxuan noticed that the affection Su Chen showed her sister mirrored the same love he had when looking at Lin Qingyan.

While Su Chen confessed his feelings earlier, there wasn't a genuine emotional display. Yang Danxuan had previously learned of Su Chen's hidden plans and intentions from Su Xian'er. Instantly, she realized that Su Chen did not truly love her.

Accepting his confession now would only lead to more sorrow. "Su Chen, thank you for your sentiment, but I haven't thought about such long-term matters yet." Yang Danxuan didn't outright reject him but gave a vague reply. After speaking, she felt as if she missed out on something.

Yang Danxuan was still somewhat upset. After all, anyone would struggle to accept such words from a man they've loved for decades. To hide her sadness, she left the hospital room, leaving a puzzled Su Chen behind.

Did his words anger Yang Danxuan? He came to the realization that his earlier assumptions were mere fantasies. Overestimating his appeal, he thought, how could these heroines possibly fall for him? Reflecting on the situation, it didn't seem the narrative was completely ruined since the 'system' didn't interject. It felt similar to comparing answers with classmates after an exam, realizing all your answers were wrong, but the final results proving otherwise.

However, Su Chen identified a new headache. It was Yang Yuxin, who remained unmoved in her position. She just stared at him, saying nothing, creating an awkward atmosphere.

However, as Su Chen was in a daze, Yang Yuxin revealed a slight and elegant smile, "Su Chen, confessing to my sister upon first meeting? That doesn't seem like your style."

"I'm not too different from my sister. Do you want to take me in as well?" Su Chen was dumbfounded. What's going on? Seeing him silent, Yang Yuxin's smile turned teasing, "Lacking confidence?"

What a joke! How could he lack confidence? With that mischievous smile of hers, he suspected she was playing him. Su Chen pondered deeply.

"Sorry, not interested." After recovering from his shock, Su Chen firmly rejected Yang Yuxin's proposition. In his mind, compared to other female leads, Yang Yuxin was relatively easy-going. At least according to her character, he could reject her without hesitation.

Yang Yuxin scoffed lightly, asking softly, "If that's the case, why did you confess to my sister earlier?" "Weren't you exclusively into Lin Qingyan? This doesn't align with your 'young master Su' persona." Yang Yuxin emphasized the term 'persona' heavily.

It was a term she had learned from Su Chen. From Su Chen's inner thoughts, she realized he seemed to value the concept of 'persona' greatly. Su Chen thought to himself that he must have truly stepped into a deep pit.

"What do you want?" Su Chen asked emotionlessly.

"You'll find out in time." Yang Yuxin replied with a sly grin.

She felt a surge of inner glee. This tactic was something she had learned from watching dramas, reminiscent of how Zhao Min had captured Zhang Wuji's heart.

Seeing the opportunity, she naturally wanted to seize it.

Su Chen glanced at her chest, neither grand nor humble. Indeed, Yang Yuxin looked best to him when she wore her uniform. Su Chen didn't want to get entangled with Yang Yuxin; she seemed to be able to see right through him.

Yang Yuxin noticed Su Chen's reluctance and quickly added, "What's the matter? Don't you care about Lin Qingyan's feelings? Or is it that you don't like her at all?"

Su Chen was speechless.

[Yang Yuxin, I give up. Can't you see my actions over the years? I'm no longer the big brother who fed you candies every day when we were kids.]

[And now you have feelings for me? This puts a lot of pressure on me. What if I impulsively push you down?]

Hearing these words from Su Chen, Yang Yuxin couldn't help but laugh.

That laugh left Su Chen utterly confused. It was a beautiful laugh, but why was she laughing?

Yang Yuxin smiled and said, "By the way, when will you buy me those candies from our childhood? I miss them."

Resigned, Su Chen coughed, "Look at the weather now; those candies will be all soft. Let's forget about it."

Su Chen quickly made up an excuse, wanting to reject Yang Yuxin's request.

What a joke, are candies the kind of thing one can just casually give to a woman? Yang Yuxin smiled slyly, "It's okay, I'll eat them from soft until they're hard."

Su Chen was left speechless again.

"I can even share it with my sister. You like my sister, don't you? Can't bear to let her miss out?"

Looking at Yang Yuxin, blinking her innocent eyes, Su Chen was perplexed, wondering if she was genuinely naive or just pretending.

Having no other choice, Su Chen reluctantly agreed, thinking it's just candy. When the time comes, he'd let the other party eat it however they wanted. It seemed that Yang Yuxin was overjoyed by Su Chen's agreement, and she happily bounded out of the sickroom.

"What's going on? Why do these female leads seem so abnormal?" Su Chen looked at the enchanting figure leaving, genuinely puzzled. The previously lively sickroom suddenly turned quiet. With nothing to do, Su Chen lay on the bed, contemplating his future actions.

By rights, Su Chen should be in the police station, awaiting trial. Both the Chen and Yang families would take action against Su Chen, even going as far as launching aggressive commercial assaults on him. But given the current situation, would this really happen? Su Chen was quite frustrated, but upon closer thought, it seemed that Chen Yuxin had suddenly disappeared from the sickroom. Could she have gone home to strategize?

The more Su Chen thought about it, the more he believed it was highly possible. Perhaps Chen Yuxin had been shadowing him all these days just to gather information. With such thoughts, Su Chen felt quite pleased with himself.

Just as he was about to fall asleep, a noise from outside the door agitated Su Chen even more.
