"Remember, don't step past this door frame. Otherwise, I, Nezha, will punch you to death."
Su Family, in front of the young girl's bedroom.
Chen Kexin fiercely glared at Su Fan, signaling that he must not cross the line.
Only then did she turn around and return to the room, leaving Su Fan standing there in a daze.
What did she just say?
Little sister has regained consciousness?
And the reason she recovered was because of Lin Xuan's massage technique?!
Could Lin Xuan really be the expert I suspected…?!!
Hmm.
I'm not sure yet, I need to observe more.
Thinking this, Su Fan stood at the doorway like a guardian deity, staring intently at Lin Xuan's every move inside the room.
That naked gaze made Lin Xuan feel extremely uncomfortable.
"Ahem…."
"Kexin, what are you doing? How could you kick Brother Su Fan out?"
Lin Xuan pretended to be serious and said a few words.
Seeing that Chen Kexin ignored him, he gave Su Fan an apologetic smile at the door.
Then he continued massaging.
But this time.
Lin Xuan fully became a gentleman, completely avoiding any unnecessary "close contact" actions.
His serious and upright demeanor.
Immediately made Su Fan view him in a better light, and his impression improved significantly.
He also felt inexplicably ashamed of his previous impolite attitude.
With his sharp eyesight.
He could naturally see that Lin Xuan's massage techniques followed proper rules and contained profound mysteries.
He was almost certain…
That this was the expert he had suspected last night.
Which meant that because of Lin Xuan, his little sister's condition had been maintained so well.
And she had a real chance of recovering naturally without any aftereffects.
Yet, he had judged Lin Xuan unfairly without knowing the full story.
Just because he saw Lin Xuan holding his sister, he had assumed the worst and sentenced Lin Xuan in his mind.
But the truth was, Lin Xuan was tirelessly treating his little sister!
At this moment.
Su Fan's face turned red and pale, feeling ashamed for the first time in his life…
…..
On the other side.
Gentleman Lin Xuan was still carefully massaging Su Qingge.
But suddenly, a system notification sounded in his head.
[Ding! Son of Destiny, Su Fan's favorability has increased!]
[Ding! "Close Contact Magnetic Field" range points have increased accordingly, now earning 1 point per second.]
Huh?!
Lin Xuan was stunned and confused.
Why did the brother-in-law suddenly increase his favorability toward him?!
And it even jumped from 1 point per 10 seconds to 1 point per second!
Wasn't he just caught red-handed massaging his sister?
Shouldn't his favorability have dropped instead of rising???
I don't understand, I really don't understand!!!
Meanwhile, the most frustrated person at the moment…
Should be Su Qingge lying on the hospital bed.
'What's going on? Is it just my imagination?'
'Why does it feel like Lin Xuan's massage is extra proper today? He even seems to be deliberately keeping his distance???'
'Before, there used to be a lot of physical contact during the massages…'
'But now…'
'Does Lin Xuan hate me now? Is that why he's avoiding physical contact?'
In the dark cage of consciousness.
As if she had thought of some possibility, Su Qingge's emotions suddenly sank.
If it were back when they had just met…
Lin Xuan's touch would only make her feel uncomfortable and uneasy…
But she didn't know when exactly it started, she stopped resisting.
And gradually got used to Lin Xuan's touch, even developing a certain…
A subtle anticipation that she couldn't quite put into words…
'Maybe I'm overthinking! It must be because there's an outsider in the room today.'
'Yes! That must be it! So Lin Xuan is trying to avoid suspicion and keeping his distance.'
'Speaking of which, that Su Fan guy… seems to be the one Lin Xuan mentioned yesterday—'
'At first, I admired his courage.'
'I even thought that once I woke up, if given the chance, I would recruit him under my command.'
'But I never expected him to be so unreasonable, immediately taking the moral high ground and accusing Lin Xuan of disrespecting me.'
'Hmph! I, the one involved, didn't even object, so why is this outsider meddling in my business?'
'Besides, Lin Xuan and I are engaged, and he's treating my illness. What's wrong with a little physical contact? I'm willing!'
Su Qingge kept complaining in her heart, feeling indignant on Lin Xuan's behalf.
Originally, since Su Fan shared the same surname "Su" with her, and since Lin Xuan seemed to respect him, after learning that Su Fan was unemployed…
She even considered arranging a security captain position for him in her company so he could make a living.
But seeing his unreasonable behavior now, her impression of him dropped to rock bottom.
Especially since he was disrupting Lin Xuan's "normal" performance.
This made Su Qingge even more speechless, wishing Su Fan would just leave already…
Just as everyone was lost in their own thoughts!
Lin Xuan's first massage session was completed.
He showed no hesitation, got up from the bed, returned to his seat, and carefully tucked Su Qingge in.
Throughout the entire process, his gaze never left Su Qingge, filled with deep affection…
And this entire scene was seen by the somewhat guilty Su Fan.
Could it be that Lin Xuan truly loves my little sister that much?
Is this… the most devoted man in the entire Magic City?!
Before, I thought it was just exaggerated talk.
But seeing it today, maybe the rumors aren't entirely false.
Su Fan's eyes flickered—he had finally witnessed a glimpse of Lin Xuan's devotion.
Back when he first learned that his little sister had become a vegetative patient…
Having seen the fickleness of human nature, even after hearing about Lin Xuan's dedication and efforts,
He had instantly dismissed it, doubting Lin Xuan's true intentions, thinking he must have some ulterior motive.
But after witnessing everything today, Su Fan had to admit—
He was starting to waver.
Watching Lin Xuan carefully taking care of his little sister, Su Fan didn't know why, but he suddenly recalled the woman who had saved him from the fire five years ago…
The woman who had cared for him and encouraged him during his most desperate times.
Yet even to this day, Su Fan had no idea who that mysterious woman was!
But she was the greatest regret of his life.
Because back then, after suffering a great trauma, his heart had become twisted.
To vent his pain and desires, he did something unforgivable to that woman…
He… violated her…
