Chapter 78: Husband

When Su Xiran heard the people's discussions, her body trembled. She was angry, but not at Lin Chen; rather, she was furious at how these people looked down on Lin Chen.

"Haha, Miss Su, you don't need to be so angry. There's no need to get upset over someone who is so low-class and arrogant! Just avoid this kind of person in the future." Tan Chengkang thought Su Xiran was upset by Lin Chen's arrogance and felt extremely smug.

"You... you are the one who is low-class! What right do you have to say such things about Lin Chen!" Su Xiran's face was full of anger, and she looked like a mother tiger protecting her cub. Her face turned red, and she said, "What is the relationship between us? He is my boyfriend!"

Wow!

The crowd was stunned, and Tan Chengkang's smug smile froze.

What's going on? How could the usually gentle and elegant Su Xiran get so angry over a poor guy, and even say that this guy is her boyfriend?

How is that possible!

If Su Xiran were to be pursued by Tan Chengkang, they would be jealous but could accept it, after all, he is a rich, handsome, and successful man. But Lin Chen is just a nobody. How could he deserve the favor of a goddess?

Lin Chen was also surprised. He didn't expect Su Xiran to react so strongly. Then he felt a warm feeling in his heart. Su Xiran deliberately said that Lin Chen was her boyfriend, just to save his face and prevent him from being looked down upon by others.

Lin Chen smiled slyly and said loudly, "No, Sister Xixi, you are not my girlfriend!"

What? What's going on?

The crowd was even more confused. Su Xiran had already said that Lin Chen was her boyfriend, why was Lin Chen denying it?

Shouldn't this guy be overjoyed to be favored by a goddess?

Then many people suddenly understood. This guy must be afraid of offending Tan Chengkang. After all, he looks like he has no money or power. Tan Chengkang could probably have him beaten up by a few thugs.

Everyone began to look down on Lin Chen. This guy is too spineless. Tan Chengkang hasn't even threatened him, and he's already cowering.

Tan Chengkang laughed smugly and said, "Lin Chen, not bad. Since you are so sensible, I won't hold it against you."

Su Xiran looked at Lin Chen in disbelief, feeling extremely hurt and disappointed. She had mustered the courage to say that Lin Chen was her boyfriend, and he reacted like this.

"Lin Chen, how can you do this?" Su Xiran said, on the verge of tears.

Lin Chen looked very angry and said, "Sister Xixi, what do you mean by this? You are being too much!"

"I... how am I being too much? You are the one being too much!" Su Xiran said, feeling wronged.

"Of course, you are being too much. I am your husband, but you only say I am your boyfriend. Isn't that a downgrade? No way, I'm angry. Call me husband, or I'll make sure you don't sleep tonight!"

"Ah! Husband?"

Su Xiran was stunned at first, then her face turned red as if it were bleeding.

"Yes, call me husband, or I'll really be angry!" Lin Chen said with a grin, winking at Su Xiran.

Su Xiran immediately understood. Lin Chen must have seen that she was not interested in Tan Chengkang and was offering to be her shield to make Tan Chengkang give up.

But even so, calling someone "husband" is not something to be done lightly. Su Xiran felt her heart racing, almost jumping out of her chest.

"Sister Xixi, if you don't call me husband, I'll use the family law tonight!" Lin Chen said with another grin.

Ah! Family law!

The men in the cafeteria instantly had all sorts of unhealthy fantasies, and their gazes toward Lin Chen were almost burning with envy.

Envy, jealousy, and hatred!

Su Xiran also thought of something unhealthy, her head almost burying in her chest, and she said softly, "Hu... husband."

"That's better. I'll let you off tonight, let you have a good night's rest, hehe." Lin Chen said another sentence that made the other men want to kill him.

This guy is really Su Xiran's husband, and it seems he doesn't let Su Xiran rest well every night. The men felt their hearts breaking, wanting to find a corner to cry.

"Impossible! When did you get married, Su Xiran? How could I not know!"

Tan Chengkang's face turned ashen, and he roared in anger.

He had played with many women, including many famous models, but he had never had someone like Su Xiran.

Su Xiran is a sexy and beautiful older sister, but she also has a pure and innocent quality, especially with her gentle and elegant personality. She has always been clean and virtuous. Apart from her humble background, she is almost a perfect woman, not inferior to the famous actress An Xueyao or the successful woman Su Man in Yuehai City.

He decided almost at first sight that he must get this woman, and he absolutely could not let her slip away!

Lin Chen mocked, "Mr. Tan, do we need your approval for my relationship with Sister Xixi? Do you think you are the Civil Affairs Bureau?"

"You..."

Tan Chengkang was speechless. He was angry, but others don't need to tell him about their marriage. However, he had already decided that Su Xiran was his woman, and he was not willing to give up.

"Even if you are married, so what? You can still get a divorce! Su Xiran, he doesn't deserve you. Divorce him, I won't mind. I genuinely like you."

Tan Chengkang looked at Su Xiran with a pained expression and said, "He clearly can't give you anything, but I can buy you a car, a house, LV bags, expensive jewelry, and high-end cosmetics. This kind of nobody doesn't deserve your beauty.

And if you follow me, I can guarantee that you will become a supermodel. If you don't want to work, you don't have to do anything. I will support you and let you live a life that others envy!"

It must be said that his words were somewhat tempting. At least many women in the cafeteria were moved. This was a chance to become a phoenix rising from the ashes!

However, Su Xiran's face grew colder as she listened, and she finally said coldly, "Mr. Tan, please watch your words. I don't think Lin Chen is unworthy of me. I am very happy with him and don't think he is a nobody. Also, I am not interested in the things you mentioned. If I want them, I will work hard to get them. Finally, your so-called 'doing nothing' means being kept by you? Sorry, although I, Su Xiran, come from a humble background, I am not that cheap!"

"You... ungrateful!"

Tan Chengkang's words were aimed at women's vanity. He had used these words to trick many women into bed, but he didn't expect Su Xiran to reject him so directly.

He was furious, but his desire to get Su Xiran was even stronger. This kind of woman is rare. Nowadays, there are so many gold-diggers, especially those from humble backgrounds who want to rise through their beauty. Su Xiran is truly unique, making him feel an almost insane possessiveness.

Tan Chengkang secretly vowed to get this woman into bed!
