Su Fan’s Surprise? Could Lin Xuan Be a Simp?!

So, you're really going all in on the cringe, huh?

Alright, I, Lin Xuan, am willing to call you the strongest chuunibyou!!!

That being said…

Putting aside Chen Kexin's socially suicidal behavior, Miracle Reappears is still a great childhood anthem.

It made Lin Xuan reminisce about the good old days of his childhood.

Just for that, Lin Xuan took the lead in applauding.

It was both for the song, and for the childhood that could never return…

With his lead, the others soon followed, clapping along.

Clap! Clap! Clap!

"Thanks~ ( ?ω?)?"

"Thanks?(?ω?)?."

"You truly are children who believe in the light."

Seeing that her performance had touched so many people, the little girl nodded in satisfaction.

Even the little ahoge on her forehead bounced up and down, as she returned to her seat, immediately receiving enthusiastic praise from Kong Lian and the others.

"?(???????)? Kexin, you were amazing!"

"Yeah, yeah! You sang so well! Who taught you?"

"I heard you're close with [L]. Did he teach you? Wow! Can you tell me if [L] is from Shanghai?"

"[L]? You mean the entertainment industry's savior [L], who's been all over the internet lately? He's my ultimate idol!"

"......."

Hearing that Chen Kexin actually knew [L], He Yicheng and the others immediately gathered around to ask questions.

After all, [L] had been dominating the charts, releasing over a dozen songs, each an instant classic.

On the internet, he was already being hailed as the king of Chinese music, and his mysterious identity left everyone extremely curious.

Listening to their praise, Chen Kexin glanced at Lin Xuan, who was eyeing her from the side.

She still had a strong sense of contractual obligation, so she chose to keep it a secret.

"I can only say that [L] is everywhere. He is far away in the sky, yet right before your eyes."

(???(??? ;) Huh?!

Seeing that Chen Kexin refused to spill any details, the others lost interest and went back to their seats.

"Xuan Bro, how about you sing a song too?"

He Yicheng handed the microphone to Lin Xuan.

"Me? …Alright then! I'll sing one! Su Fan, excuse me."

Taking the mic, Lin Xuan nodded at his soon-to-be brother-in-law and made his way to the stage.

On stage, Lin Xuan put on a deep, emotional expression and built up the mood for the song he was about to perform.

"Today, I will be singing a song written by my idol, the great [L]. The song is called [Rice Aroma]."

"And this song happens to be my fiancée's favorite. If I understand correctly… she loves this song because of its carefree atmosphere and the sense of warmth and home it conveys."

"That's why I've practiced this song countless times, trying my best to recreate its warmth and sweetness."

"Of course! If I don't sing it well, I ask for your forgiveness."

"......."

After saying that, Lin Xuan began selecting the song on the KTV system.

The reason he chose [Rice Aroma] was indeed because it was Su Qingge's current favorite song.

Now, it was the perfect time to sing it in front of her brother.

Meanwhile…

Su Fan still sat in the corner of the sofa, his face calm and silent.

But after hearing Lin Xuan's heartfelt introduction, a flicker of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He never expected this guy to be such a romantic fool?!

From Su Fan's experience, most of the wealthy heirs he had encountered treated women like clothes—wearing one today and switching to another tomorrow.

It had been a long time since he had met a rich guy as devoted as Lin Xuan.

'But then again, I've also met plenty of gold diggers—women who are masters at playing men.'

'I just hope this guy has better luck.'

'If he found a good woman, great. Otherwise, simps never end well...'

After all, Lin Xuan was one of the few rich guys he didn't dislike.

So, Su Fan kind of hoped that things would work out for him.

At the same time, sitting not far away, He Yiming and the others were also moved by Lin Xuan's deep affection.

"Xuan Bro truly deserves the title 'Shanghai's Most Devoted Man'! Even dogs would be moved to tears!"

"It's just a shame that Shanghai's most beautiful woman is still in a coma…Sigh, I wonder when she'll wake up."

"If she wakes up one day and finds out that Xuan Bro broke ties with his family for her, spent 3.5 billion on her dowry, and did all these deeply romantic things for her…she'll definitely be moved to tears!!!"

"......."

These words fell into Su Fan's ears, making him even more curious.

So, Lin Xuan's fiancée… is a vegetable?

And she's known as Shanghai's most beautiful woman?

Since when did Shanghai start ranking beautiful women?

In Su Fan's time, Shanghai didn't have these kinds of ridiculous rankings.

So, he had no idea who this so-called "Shanghai's No.1 Beauty" was.

But hearing that Lin Xuan had broken ties with his family and spent 3.5 billion on a dowry for a comatose woman… he couldn't help but feel a bit skeptical.

To Su Fan, no matter how beautiful a woman was, she was still just an accessory to a man.

Only by achieving great feats and leaving a legacy could a man truly fulfill his purpose in life.

Doing so many "romantic gestures" for a woman… that was just self-indulgent fantasy.

How is that any different from being a simp?

Sigh… maybe this is just a difference in ideals…

But a coma patient… With my medical skills, I might actually be able to treat her.

This thought flashed through Su Fan's mind— but he quickly dismissed it.

It wasn't his business.

He wasn't a good person, nor did he want to be one.

Wasting time on this would only interfere with his revenge plans.

On the other side.

φ(0 ̄)~♪ La la la ~ φ( ̄0 ̄)′

Lin Xuan had selected his song, and as the light, cheerful intro began, the faint chirping of crickets could be heard.

"If you have too many complaints about this world~~"

"If you fall down~~ Don't be afraid to move forward~~"

"Why are people so fragile, so lost~~"

"Do you remember~~ You said home is the only castle~~"

"Flowing along with the fragrance of rice fields~~"

"A gentle smile~~ I still remember my childhood dreams~~"

"Don't cry~~ Let the fireflies carry you away~~"

"The country songs~~ Are forever our reliance~~"

"Come home~~ Back to the original beauty~~"

The simple lyrics created a vivid, poetic scene.

The relaxed rhythm took the audience back to a countryside filled with the scent of rice fields, where they could reminisce about their most innocent joys.

Especially Su Fan, who felt deeply moved.

"Do you remember~~ You said home is the only castle~~"

When Su Fan heard these lyrics, his heart suddenly clenched with an aching sorrow.

That year, his parents and sisters were still alive...

That year, home was truly his only castle, the place that held all his happiest memories...

But now, everything had changed beyond recognition.

The joy of his childhood had long since vanished into nothingness...
