91: System, you didn't expect that! You let me discover my blind spot!

While Lin Xuan was frantically complaining about his brother-in-law not leaving yet... Su Fan, with his Grandmaster-level heightened senses, noticed something was slightly off.

"This guy..."

"Why is his breathing a little erratic? Could he be faking sleep?"

As soon as this absurd thought arose, Su Fan immediately dismissed it.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

This kid is just an ordinary person, how could he detect my arrival?

Even if he really did detect me... shouldn't he be screaming "Help me!" in terror right now?

How could he still be pretending to sleep?!

"What's going on? Has my brother-in-law been so charmed by me that he can't move?"

"He's been standing there for at least 15 minutes, hasn't he?!"

"Please, just leave! You're making me so uncomfortable!"

"My whole body is stiff, I'm even afraid to turn over in case you notice something..."

...In the dark room, it was eerily silent.

If it weren't for the "Cuddle" radar in his mind, which clearly showed Su Fan within 1 meter of him, Lin Xuan might have thought the other party had already left.

Driven by curiosity.

Lin Xuan stealthily opened an almost imperceptible slit of his eye.

Suddenly—

A face, ghastly pale in the moonlight, appeared before Lin Xuan's eyes.

"Ahhh w(゚Д゚)w—"

"Brother-in-law, are you crazy?!"

"What are you trying to do, getting so close! If you get any closer, my first kiss will be gone!!!"

"That's already reserved by your sister, don't mess around!!!"

...At that moment, the distance between that face and Lin Xuan's was only 0.01 centimeters.

Seeing it so abruptly, he almost swung out a "big slap" in fright.

Fortunately, Lin Xuan was somewhat mentally prepared, and even though he was startled, he still tried his best to maintain the appearance of deep sleep.

"Alright! It seems I was overthinking it."

After observing Lin Xuan for a while, Su Fan let go of his suspicions and slowly faded into the darkness... "Phew~~"

"He's finally gone. My brother-in-law is truly too elusive."

"No wonder his later assassinations were almost always successful."

"With this kind of coming and going without a trace ability, most security personnel simply can't stop him!"

...After the light spot of Su Fan on the "Cuddle" radar had disappeared for a while... Lin Xuan finally opened his eyes completely, stretched his stiff limbs, and made "creak, creak" bone-cracking sounds.

Ah, so refreshing~~~

After a comfortable stretch, he could finally rest assured and fall asleep... ( ̄o ̄) . z Z

The night passed without a word.

The next day.

Lin Xuan woke up with a yawn and dark circles under his eyes.

(_ _) (- . -) (~O~) ... (- . -)

Sigh~~~

This is all my brother-in-law's fault, he caused my lack of sleep.

Lin Xuan, with strong resentment, struggled to get up.

To wake himself up quickly, he lay on the floor and started doing push-ups.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for cuddling with the Earth, rewarding 10 points/1 push-up."

(ÒωÓ ױ)???

The sudden system notification instantly drove away all of Lin Xuan's sleepiness.

He was stunned; he hadn't expected this to count as cuddling... It's just that the points were a bit low. Does the entire Earth only count for 10 points?

Cuddle System, you're not giving the Earth enough face!!!

But then he remembered it was free points.

Lin Xuan's mood brightened again, and he resolved to milk the system for all it was worth.

He began his self-discipline plan with grunts and huffs.

One minute later... Lin Xuan lay on the floor, exhausted and panting heavily.

Forget it, it's too tiring.

Give up, lie flat and be a slacker.

Cuddling with the Earth is not as good as cuddling with a wife... At this thought.

Lin Xuan suddenly understood, his thoughts cleared.

However, through this incident, he also discovered a blind spot in the system.

That is, as long as you find the right method, everything can be cuddled.

For example... Lin Xuan stood up, walked to a wall, and began doing push-ups against the wall.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for cuddling with the wall, rewarding 1 point/1 push-up."

Sure enough... Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow, turned around, and performed push-up motions in the air.

Cuddle System: "..."

No reaction?

Could it be that I haven't found the right method???

Just as Lin Xuan was deep in thought, the system notification sound appeared in his mind again.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for developing a new cuddling method! Air Cuddling, rewarding 0.1 points/1 push-up."

Tsk tsk tsk.

System, I found your blind spot, didn't I?

Lin Xuan silently gave himself a thumbs-up.

However, these cuddling methods earned points too laboriously.

Lin Xuan, who was determined to be a slacker, only played with it twice before decisively giving up... Next.

After washing up, he left the Su Family Manor.

He planned to eat something as usual, then buy a violet on his way back.

In a steamed bun shop.

Lin Xuan ordered soy milk and fried dough sticks, eating his breakfast very down-to-earth... "Thank you, all shareholders, for your support!"

"Announcing good news! Since the launch of Lin Corporation's new product, sales have skyrocketed like a rocket."

"Originally, I promised all my friends one year! Now it seems, I can double the group's market value in at most half a year."

"Fulfilling my Lin Jianjun's promise to all employees of Lin Corporation, and to the shareholders who trust our Lin Family! Thank you again for your trust in me, Lin Jianjun!"

"..."

Clap clap clap!

At this moment.

A familiar voice entered Lin Xuan's ears.

He frowned and looked up, only to realize that the display screen in the steamed bun shop was broadcasting a live news report.

On the screen.

Lin Jianjun, full of vigor, kept waving to the reporters below. ┏(^0^)┛

For a time, he was riding high.

"This is incredible! The Lin Family is about to take off!"

"No choice, the beauty cream they developed has such good effects. It has already built up a reputation in Magic City."

"Indeed, that stuff is fatally attractive to women. My wife and my two daughters have all become fervent fans of the Lin Family."

"Same here! My eighty-year-old mother is even nagging me to buy it for her. Otherwise, she says I'm unfilial, it's driving me crazy!"

"Sigh, although that stuff is a bit expensive. But if it can really make your wife more beautiful! Then you'll be happy looking at her, so just buy it!"

"..."

In the steamed bun shop.

Lin Xuan ate his breakfast while listening to the comments of the people around him, his smile growing increasingly strange and playful... On the other side.

After the press conference ended.

Lin Jianjun, beaming, prepared to return to the company's employee dormitory.

These past few days, he had truly experienced what it meant to be both in pain and happy... The pain was because he had sold off all his assets and borrowed high-interest loans, causing him, who was once accustomed to a lavish life, to now live very stifled and strapped for cash.

The happiness was because after gaining complete control of Lin Corporation... he could finally hold his head high in the company, walk with a proud chest, and look down on others.

Some board members who had initially expressed their dissatisfaction with him.

Now, due to circumstances, they had become humble and respectful towards him.

This made Lin Jianjun feel extremely satisfied!!!

Coupled with the explosive reputation of the beauty cream.

Lin Corporation was truly thriving, making huge profits daily.

If this trend continued.

His rise was unstoppable, and Lin Corporation would surely reach the pinnacle of Magic City under his leadership.

"Hmph! Let's see who dares to gossip behind my back now?!"

"Saying I'm not as good as that dead woman, saying I'm a kept man..."

"And that unfilial son! Now that he sees me so glorious and boundless, he must be regretting it to tears, right! Hahahaha..."

"..."
