He Ate a Divine Dragon-Chapter 490 - 488 Do You Want It or Not

It was evident. Lin Xiao's words of bad news sent her into a panic.

"The Su Corporation is beyond saving," Lin Xiao said gravely.

To be honest, this news was actually good for Lin Xiao. For Su Qingning, however, it was absolutely devastating. She had worked so hard for so long, thinking that one day she would take back the Su Corporation. But now, it was suddenly gone. It was as if all her hopes had been obliterated.

As expected, Su Qingning stood there, stunned. But in the next second, her charming peach-blossom eyes turned blood-red, and large tears began to flow without warning. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Yes, Su Qingning was heartbroken. She was truly, deeply heartbroken. Her pain wasn't because she had failed to reclaim the Su Corporation. It was because the company that her father had poured his entire heart and soul into was now gone.

Honestly, the reason Su Qingning wanted to take back the Su Corporation wasn't because she had a great desire for money. It was because her parents had built it from the ground up, and it held so many of her memories of her father. Rather than saying she wanted to take back the Su Corporation, it would be more accurate to say she wanted to reclaim her father's life's work and the memories they shared.

But now, the Su Corporation was suddenly gone. This meant her father's life's work had also vanished abruptly. The last trace of him in this world had disappeared.

Su Qingning was truly heartbroken. She threw herself into Lin Xiao's arms, sobbing uncontrollably.

Lin Xiao felt a pang of his own. The reason he had called Shao Mei'er and asked her to bring down the Su Corporation was so that Su Qingning could join the Myth Corporation with a clean slate. After all, the Su Corporation was already riddled with problems. If Su Qingning were to take over, she would be inheriting a complete mess, which would undoubtedly consume a huge amount of her energy and time. Moreover, if the Su Corporation were to collapse under her watch, she would surely suffer even more. That was why Lin Xiao had wanted Shao Mei'er to destroy it.

But now, seeing Su Qingning's reaction, Lin Xiao was suddenly filled with regret. He regretted his decision. He knew she had a deep connection to the Su Corporation, but he had never imagined it ran this deep.

"Baby, don't cry. I think there's still a way to fix this!"

Su Qingning froze. She lifted her head, looking at Lin Xiao with tear-filled eyes. "What way?"

"Xiao Shixiong is trying to crush the Su Corporation because your uncle offended him. I could call him and plead for mercy, ask him to be lenient!"

"Would… would he listen to you?" Su Qingning asked weakly.

Lin Xiao smiled. "It's worth a try. He might just listen. Don't forget, I saved his life once!"

Lin Xiao had wanted to tell her the whole truth, but he was afraid she wouldn't believe him. Even more, he was afraid she would grow to hate him because of it. So, he shifted all the blame onto Xiao Shixiong.

He thought Su Qingning would agree to his proposal. But she just stared at him, lost in thought.

Just as Lin Xiao was about to speak again, Su Qingning suddenly said, "Husband, there's no need. I admit, when I first heard the news, I was devastated and wanted you to go beg him. But then I realized something. The Su Corporation is very important to me, but you are even more important. I can't let you demean yourself by begging someone for my sake. If that's what it takes to save the Su Corporation, then I'd rather not have it!"

Lin Xiao was stunned. He truly hadn't expected her to say something like that. He had thought the Su Corporation was so important to her that she would surely agree to his plan. Yet, she had actually refused.

Lin Xiao was shocked, but the shock was quickly replaced by a wave of overwhelming emotion. He pulled Su Qingning into his embrace, resting his chin on her head and rubbing it gently.

Lin Xiao finally understood when he had fallen in love with Su Qingning. It was when they had just gotten married, with no real feelings between them yet, and someone had tried to hit him, but she had unhesitatingly stood in front of him. It was the countless times she had shown her concern for him. It was when she, at some unknown point, began insisting on making him breakfast. It was how she always put him first, no matter what.

Thinking of all this, Lin Xiao's heart was instantly filled with an emotion called happiness.

He smiled and said, "But I'm willing to do this for you. In fact, I'm willing to do anything for you!"

Su Qingning hugged Lin Xiao tighter, equally moved. She knew he wasn't just saying things. He meant what he said, and he always followed through.

"Husband, there's no need. To be honest with you, although I was heartbroken when I first heard the news, now that I think about it, I actually feel relieved. For all these years, I've forced myself to do so many things I didn't want to do just to get the Su Corporation back. Now that it's gone, I suddenly feel at ease. I don't have to exhaust myself trying to make money anymore!"

Lin Xiao was taken aback. Honestly, this was the exact outcome he had been hoping for. He just wanted Su Qingning to completely relax. For years, she had been wound far too tight, like a clock that never stops ticking, without a single moment for herself.

Lin Xiao smiled. "I'm really happy that you can think of it that way. In that case, I'll give you a gift tomorrow!"

"What gift?"

"It's a secret!"

"You're being annoying! Just tell me, I want to know!"

"If I tell you now, it won't be a surprise anymore!" Lin Xiao laughed.

Su Qingning pouted playfully. "No, come on, tell me. I get really curious, and if you don't tell me now, I'll be thinking about it all night!"

"I can't tell you, honey. I really can't."

Su Qingning pouted her small lips in exasperation. Lin Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't resist giving her a light peck on the mouth.

Su Qingning's body trembled. The next second, she began to respond. Perhaps it was because so much had happened today and she needed a release. Or perhaps the atmosphere just felt right. Whatever the reason, she began to respond with an incredible, wild passion.

This was the first time Su Qingning had ever responded to Lin Xiao so fiercely. Their bodies entwined like octopuses, rolling over and over on the vast bed. Their heavy breathing filled the entire room with a charged, intimate atmosphere.

They kissed for what felt like an eternity, only stopping when they were both breathless.

Lin Xiao looked at Su Qingning in his arms. Her beautiful face was flushed, making her look utterly alluring. She was also looking at him, her eyes full of affection, her gaze as soft and enticing as silk.

Lin Xiao kissed her once more.

Suddenly, Su Qingning rolled over and perched on top of him. She brought her mouth close to his ear and, with a breath as sweet as an orchid, whispered, "Husband, do you want me?"
