Suppressing the Protagonist at the Start to Seize the Heroine

Chapter 35 - Enticing Lin Xiaowan

Chapter 35 : Enticing Lin Xiaowan

Upon hearing the system’s voice, Su Lin looked at Xia Shiyu with surprise. He had no idea what this girl had said to Ye Feng, but it seemed to have disrupted his defenses, breaking through significantly.

It was a welcome development, as Ye Feng’s past memories were reduced by ten percent, especially those dated memories now becoming somewhat fuzzy. After several rounds of suppression, Su Lin felt that Ye Feng was on the verge of collapse.

Without the ability to foresee the future, it was useless no matter how good his grades were. His memory was also declining, and it wouldn’t take long for him to return to the state of an ordinary person.

“Su Lin, what were you guys talking about over there? Why is Ye Feng’s expression so bad?”

Su Lin looked at Lin Xiaowan who was trying hard to hold back her laughter and was speechless. “Xiaowan, why do I feel like you’re gloating?”

“Hehe, is it that obvious?” Lin Xi touched her pretty face and asked.

Su Lin nodded. “It’s all on your face.”

Pushing Su Lin’s shoulder, Lin Xiaowan asked, “So, what did you guys talk about?”

“Well… it’s nothing much. Ye Feng was calling me a bad person, and I was telling him to repay the money he owes,” Su Lin replied casually.

“Ah, that explains why Ye Feng looks so miserable. Too bad I wasn’t there; otherwise, I’d give him a piece of my mind,” Lin Xiaowan said.

Su Lin teased, “No need to regret; I’ve already conveyed your sentiments.”

“Hehe~!”

“Hey, Xiaoyu doesn’t look good either.”

Su Lin nodded. “Ye Feng grew up with her, so it’s understandable she’s upset. Xiaowan, maybe you can go and comfort her later.”

Lin Xiaowan nodded. “No need to tell me; I’ll do that.”

“Mmm.”

After chatting with Lin Xiaowan, Su Lin began to study the Emperor’s Treasure Chest. To put it simply, this Emperor’s Treasure Chest was a random treasure chest, and anything could be drawn. Su Lin instantly lost interest. He understood the odds of this kind of lucky draw very well.

“Lucky draw.” After a silent command, a tattered treasure chest appeared in Su Lin’s mind and started to roll. Then a golden light appeared.

“Wow! Golden legend! Congratulations to the host for obtaining all knowledge of the nine-year compulsory education in Xia Country.”

Su Lin felt no significant change in his mind, except that his previously acquired knowledge became more firmly entrenched. He couldn’t help but express his frustration with the system.

F*ck~!!! Su Lin gave the system a middle finger.

His grades were among the best in the class and the entire Huaxia’s Jiangnan Province, the knowledge was useless.

“Forget it. It’s better than nothing. I’ll surpass both Xiao Yu and Xiao Wan in this monthly exam. I’ll dampen her spirit.”

Lin Xiaowan had been in Jiangning High School for three years, and her grades had always been the best in the school. It should be quite interesting to be caught off guard by Su Lin.

When Ye Feng returned to his seat, he felt that his memory had become a lot more fuzzy. He quickly took out his notebook and looked at the symbols that only he could understand. Only then did Ye Feng vaguely remember.

He patted his head. “My memory is so good now, but why do I feel like my memories from my previous life are becoming blurry? What’s going on?”

“Sigh! I’m just unlucky. I thought I could make up for the regrets of my past life, but the butterfly effect turned me into this.”

He looked at Xia Shiyu in the front row and felt another wave of heartache. Was he really going to drift away like this? This wasn’t the result Ye Feng wanted. He had to pay back the money and help Xia Shiyu collect enough for her father’s surgery.

“Dad’s side has already started to act. After today, our family will be millionaires. Su Lin, you won’t be arrogant for long.”

What Ye Feng didn’t know was that when his dad went to the countryside to collect gastrodia with two hundred thousand, he found that there was nothing left to collect.

Li Hongyang’s ability to get things done was still very strong. He was like a locust that had entered the village, collecting all the gastrodia from every household. And it only took him one day to take down the villages around Zhongjiang.

At noon, when Su Lin, Xia Shiyu, and Lin Xiaowan were eating together, Li Hongyang called to report the situation. What surprised Su Lin was that Li Hongyang collected a total of 24 tons of gastrodia during this trip to the countryside.

It was close to fifty thousand catties. If he sold it at three hundred per catty, it would be close to fifteen million. In addition to the money Su Lin originally had, after this transaction, he had more than twenty million in his hands.

In less than a month, he earned more than twenty million. This money came too easily. Su Lin, who was in a good mood, even felt that Ye Feng was more pleasing to the eye.

“What’s going on, Su Lin? Why do you look so happy answering the phone? Is something exciting happening?” Lin Xiaowan asked curiously.

At the same time, Xia Shiyu stopped eating and looked at Su Lin.

Su Lin nodded, then said, “Same rule applies – only you two can know, and you can’t tell anyone.”

Xia Shiyu and Lin Xiaowan looked at each other and nodded excitedly.

People are naturally curious when it comes to secret matters. And Lin Xiaowan, eager to understand Su Lin better, was particularly intrigued. Su Lin thought that it wouldn’t take long for Xia Shiyu to enter his business territory. It was good to let her know something now.

“Here’s the deal. Recently, there was a massive flood in the north of Hubei and the south of Anhui, causing a sharp drop in gastrodia production. From there, it triggered a demand surge across our Jiangnan Province. Luckily, this year in Zhongjiang, the wild gastrodia is thriving.”

Xia Shiyu’s brain turned quickly, and she blurted out, “So you went to buy gastrodia?”

Su Lin snapped his fingers. “Exactly. I had my people buy up all the Tianma in Zhongjiang at a cost of 50 yuan per pound. Meanwhile, the wholesale price in Donghai has soared to 300 yuan per pound. Just now, my employee called, and we’ve collected a total of 24 tons. What do you think? Is this something to be happy about?”

“Wow!” Both girls were astonished.

Lin Xiaowan quickly did mental calculations and looked at Su Lin. “So, you earned over ten million this time?”

Su Lin waved his hand. “It hasn’t been sold yet, but it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

Lin Xiaowan looked at Su Lin as if she was looking at a monster. “I’m still feeling complacent about being the first in school every time, but your business is already so big. Su Lin, how did your brain develop?”

Su Lin chuckled. “Life is full of business opportunities. Xiaowan, if you want to make money, we can start a business together.”

“Ah! Forget it, my family doesn’t want me to be involved in business.”

Don’t want to be involved in business? Su Lin scoffed. In the original novel, Lin Xiaowan was influenced by Ye Feng, Lin Xiaowan eventually abandoned politics and turned to business, achieving remarkable success.

“Your family doesn’t want you to be involved in business? It must be your dad who doesn’t want you to be involved.”

Lin Xiaowan nodded. “Su Lin, how do you know?”

Su Lin laughed. “Your dad’s thoughts are very obvious. Is he looking down on businessmen? The economy of Huaxia is driven by us businessmen.”

“Xiaowan, what about you? What do you think?”

“I don’t want to sit in an office with air conditioning for the rest of my life.”

Su Lin laughed. “Then it’s settled. Let’s start a business together. Even if you want to be a civil servant, there are still four years. In these four years, you should at least be yourself, right?”

“Su Lin, why do I feel like you’re encouraging me?” Lin Xiaowan looked at Su Lin in a daze.

Su Lin spread his hands. “I’ve never hidden my thoughts.”
