21: Chapter 21: Three Women Under One Roof, Favorability Rising Collectively!

Shen Qingyue had always been certain that Lin Yuan was playing hard to get, using those extreme measures to force her to admit her mistake.

She had even prepared herself for Lin Yuan to come begging to her in tears.

But now, this man she thought belonged only to her forever was actually hiding a woman in his home who had just been intimate with him!

The immense sense of disparity shattered Shen Qingyue's last shred of sanity.

"Lin Yuan!" Shen Qingyue shrieked hysterically, "Are you crazy? To spite me, you actually brought home some shameless streetwalker?"

She pointed at Wang Ya's nose, her face twisted in a grimace, "Look at her slutty appearance! Who knows how many men have slept with her! Don't you find her dirty?"

"Let me tell you, using such low-class tactics to disgust me will only make me think you are pathetic!"

Wang Ya was completely bewildered.

She had no idea who this woman in the trench coat, shouting like a maniac, was.

Insulted by the other woman with such vile words, Wang Ya turned pale and subconsciously shrank behind Lin Yuan.

After all, Su Xiaonuan, who was standing at the door, had allowed her in; as a woman merely seeking Lin Yuan's protection, she didn't dare to say anything.

To Shen Qingyue, this instinctive action was a blatant provocation.

"You bitch, you dare to hide!"

Shen Qingyue had completely lost her mind.

She poured out all the humiliation she had suffered at the company, the anger from being deceived by Lu Feng, and her current jealousy.

Her reason, which she had always been proud of, completely collapsed. She strode forward in her high heels, raising her hand to slap Wang Ya's pitiful face.

Lin Yuan stood in place, his brows slightly furrowed.

Just as he was about to backhand Shen Qingyue away.

A small, dark shadow darted out from the opposite guest room!

Bang!

Lin Motong rammed her head hard into Shen Qingyue's stomach.

She didn't care who this woman was; anyone who wanted to lay a hand on her mother deserved to die!

Shen Qingyue let out a miserable scream, stumbling back several steps from the impact, before her high heel twisted and she fell heavily to the floor.

Before she could react, Lin Motong had already pounced on her like a rabid wolf cub.

The two of them instantly started brawling.

Although Lin Motong was frail, years of domestic abuse had instilled a desperate, reckless ferocity in her bones.

Ignoring Shen Qingyue's scratching, she opened her mouth and bit down hard on the wrist that was flailing about.

Blood began to flow.

"Ah—! Let go of me! You little animal! Let go!"

Shen Qingyue's facial features were twisted in pain as she screamed repeatedly.

She desperately thrashed her arm, but she couldn't shake off this wolf cub that wouldn't let go once it bit its prey.

In a fit of rage, she lifted her other foot and kicked hard at Lin Motong's stomach with her sharp high heel.

Lin Yuan's eyes turned cold.

He strode forward; instead of pulling Lin Motong away, he grabbed Shen Qingyue's meticulously styled long hair.

The movement was extremely rough.

The intense pain from her scalp forced Shen Qingyue to retract her foot; she felt as if her scalp was about to be ripped off.

"Lin Yuan! You dare to hit me?!"

Shen Qingyue screamed in a wretched state, tears and snot mixed with her foundation.

Lin Yuan couldn't be bothered to talk to her.

He dragged Shen Qingyue by her hair, like hauling a bag of stinking trash, and strode toward the entrance.

He swung his arm.

Shen Qingyue flew out, landing heavily in the hallway outside the door.

Her elbows and knees hit the hard tiles, causing her to curl up in pain.

Lin Yuan just looked at her.

There was no anger in his eyes, only the disgust of "disposing of household waste."

"If you dare to appear in front of me again, I guarantee you will be ten thousand times worse off than you are now."

After saying this, bang!

The security door slammed shut, completely sealing off Shen Qingyue's wails.

The living room was deathly silent.

Wang Ya covered her mouth, still shaken.

Lin Motong sat on the floor, her mouth still stained with Shen Qingyue's blood, her chest heaving, but her eyes were exceptionally bright.

Su Xiaonuan stood at the entrance, in a state of extreme excitement.

Lin Yuan turned around.

He didn't comfort anyone, just glanced at Lin Motong.

This wolf cub had passed.

[Ding! Target Su Xiaonuan (Beauty 87), Favorability +2%, Current Favorability: 52%!]

[Ding! Target Wang Ya (Beauty 88), Favorability +2%, Current Favorability: 28%!]

[Ding! Target Lin Motong, Favorability +2%, Current Favorability: 7%!]

Lin Yuan's extreme protectiveness brought an unparalleled sense of security to the three women in the room.

"Mop the floor."

Lin Yuan gave a casual instruction, turned around, walked back to the master bedroom, and closed the door.

Once Lin Yuan left, the atmosphere in the living room became subtle.

Su Xiaonuan first brought over a first-aid kit to help Lin Motong treat the scratches on her arm from the earlier brawl.

The scent of iodine spread, making Lin Motong wince in pain.

"Sister Ya, that crazy woman from just now was Mr. Lin's ex-wife."

Su Xiaonuan said, explaining in a flat tone while tidying up the first-aid kit.

Wang Ya was stunned for a moment.

"Ex-wife?"

She had originally thought that was just some crazy woman pestering Lin Yuan; she didn't expect her to have this identity.

Su Xiaonuan closed the first-aid kit, stood up, and looked into Wang Ya's eyes.

"Mr. Lin doesn't like others asking too many questions when he does things. We are able to stand here because we are useful."

Su Xiaonuan's voice was not loud, and she shook her head meaningfully.

"We should only watch and not ask about Mr. Lin's personal affairs. Following orders and getting things done is what we should do."

Su Xiaonuan kept a straight face, though she was actually unsure herself; she had no idea why Mr. Lin had divorced.

But as the "Head Housekeeper" appointed by Mr. Lin, she had to establish the rules in front of this newcomer.

She absolutely could not be outdone.

Wang Ya was a smart woman.

She had experienced her husband's betrayal and the pressure of loan sharks, so she was very clear about her current situation.

Wang Ya immediately lowered her head and gathered her T-shirt, "Miss Su, don't worry. I will never have any inappropriate thoughts."

"As long as Tongtong and I have a place to stay, I will do whatever Mr. Lin tells me to do."

The next morning.

The sky over Jiangcheng was gray, and the air was filled with a dull humidity.

Lin Yuan finished washing up and walked out of the bedroom.

A sumptuous breakfast, steaming hot, was already laid out on the dining table.

Su Xiaonuan and Wang Ya stood respectfully to the side like subordinates awaiting inspection.

Lin Motong, with her schoolbag on her back, sat quietly on the sofa in the distance, her gaze constantly following him.

Lin Yuan pulled out the chair at the head of the table and sat down, took a sip of hot milk, and issued his instructions directly.

"Xiaonuan, after eating, take Mo Tong to handle the school enrollment procedures."

"Understood." Su Xiaonuan nodded immediately.

Lin Yuan put down the glass and turned his gaze to Wang Ya.

Wang Ya's heart tightened, and she subconsciously held her breath.

She didn't know what position she, a woman who came as a bonus with the purchase of antibiotics, would be assigned; she didn't want to be just a tool for sexual release.

"Wang Ya, from today on, you will follow Su Xiaonuan. For material procurement and warehouse inventory, follow her orders in everything."

Lin Yuan's tone was flat, yet it carried an authority that brooked no argument.

Wang Ya was stunned for a second, then immediately lowered her head: "Okay, Mr. Lin."

Su Xiaonuan, standing to the side, had her eyes light up.

She had originally worried that Mr. Lin would be captivated by this mature woman's body and create some harem drama.

She hadn't expected that Mr. Lin wouldn't fall for that at all!

He directly assigned her to work under her!

What did this mean?

It meant that in Mr. Lin's heart, she, the capable housekeeper, was much more important than a woman for warming the bed!

[Ding! Target Su Xiaonuan, Favorability +2%, Current Favorability: 54%!]

Hearing the system prompts, Lin Yuan finished the fried egg on his plate in a few bites, picked up a napkin to wipe his mouth, and stood up.

He had no interest in watching women vie for favor; he only wanted absolute efficiency and obedience.

Su Xiaonuan's capability had already been verified, and Wang Ya, as an assistant, would perfectly fill the vacancy in material procurement.

With power distributed, Lin Yuan picked up his car keys and strode out of the apartment.

Only after the door closed did the three, who had been standing stiffly, dare to pull out their chairs and sit down.

The black SUV drove out of the Rose Garden Residential Area and sped straight toward the Cloud Top Palace.

Today, he was going to meet that future A-rank Esper, the strongest supervisor.

Lu Yan.
