Beautiful CEO's Super Expert-Chapter 733: Does He Like You?
Although Su Chen didn't know the situation outside, he could make a rough guess.
Such major events occurring within the Five Great Families would definitely be quickly known by the other families through their own channels, even if ordinary people were unaware.
Actually, he didn't much care about this; all he needed to do was wait for the subsequent developments!
Whether it was the reaction of the other families or that of the mysterious organization behind them, it was all useful to him.
Moreover, after this incident, others should be less likely to harbor any thoughts against those close to him!
Because Su Chen had already proven with actions that anyone who touched those close to him would face his wrath!
That day after work, Su Chen didn't leave immediately as usual, but went to Lin Ruoxue's office instead because he was waiting to go to the hospital with her to visit Yunlong.
Lin Ruoxue had said she would leave early, but that early wasn't right after work; it was just a bit earlier than the usual eight or nine o'clock!

Lin Ruoxue was busy until about seven o'clock, and then she went to the hospital with Su Chen. She didn't drive herself but took Su Chen's car.
The hospital where Yunlong was staying wasn't too far from Rainbow Mansion; it was just about a fifteen-minute drive.
When Su Chen pushed the door open, Yunlong was joking with Yunyao, although most of the talking was done by Yunyao, and he spoke only occasionally, as he was still not supposed to speak much.
When he heard footsteps, he turned his head, saw it was Su Chen, and quickly called him "big brother."
Upon hearing Yunlong's shout, Yunyao's eyes unconsciously flashed a strange light as she looked toward the door.
However, upon seeing Lin Ruoxue, who followed closely, her heart trembled slightly, and she seemed a bit flustered.
"Sister-in-law, you came too? It's really too much trouble!"
Yunlong, seeing Lin Ruoxue, didn't feel anything in particular, only a bit surprised.
"It's no trouble at all; I just came along to check on you."
Lin Ruoxue smiled slightly and placed a bunch of fresh flowers and some supplements she had bought on the road beside his bed.
Although Su Chen felt indifferent, Lin Ruoxue insisted on not coming empty-handed, out of courtesy, so Su Chen let her be.
"Ms. Lin, I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to visit Yunlong. I really feel bad about it!"
Yunyao stood up and said with a slight smile on her face, while hiding the slight turmoil well inside her.
"Miss Yun is too polite. Since Yunlong calls Su Chen 'big brother,' it's only appropriate for me to come and check on him," Lin Ruoxue replied with a smile.
In the past, when they were in Jianghai, the two women had seen each other at several events, but they'd only been acquainted by nods and had never met up close in a private setting like this before.
"Sister-in-law, please have a seat," Yunlong said. Although he had always wanted to bring Yunyao and Su Chen together, in his heart, he bore no ill will towards Lin Ruoxue.
"Alright, no need to fuss over me; you should talk less these days," Su Chen said, and then with a flattering smile, pulled a chair over:
"Wife, you've had a long day. Please sit down."
Seeing him act so considerately, Lin Ruoxue felt rather embarrassed, especially since there were others around.
Yunyao, watching this scene unfold, felt a sour sensation in her heart for some reason, and her expression darkened a bit.
Seeing Yunyao's expression, Yunlong was even more convinced of his previous guess – his sister definitely had feelings for his big brother!
"Miss Yun, did you manage to get some sleep? You've been up all night."
Su Chen asked Yunyao casually.
Hearing Su Chen's words, Yunyao's heart fluttered into chaos again, and she couldn't help but glance at Lin Ruoxue. Seeing no particular reaction from her, she finally felt somewhat relieved.
"Don't worry, I managed to sleep for a few hours during the day," Yunyao quickly responded.
"That's good, let's not have Yunlong still ill and then you falling sick too," Su Chen said, caring for his friend Yunyao despite lacking romantic feelings for her.
"I appreciate your concern, Mr. Su, but there's nothing wrong with me," Yunyao replied.
Lin Ruoxue had not initially noticed anything unusual between them; even if Su Chen showed some concern, it seemed perfectly normal.
However, a woman's intuition is incredibly sharp, and she caught a hint of panic in Yunyao's demeanor.
She looked suspiciously at the two of them, but said nothing.
Su Chen and Lin Ruoxue had stayed in the hospital room for over an hour before leaving. Before they left, he made sure to tell Yunlong to rest up.
After they left, they headed home. At this time, Yandu gradually entered the depths of winter, most noticeably by the decrease in pedestrians on the streets at night.
The desolate night was like water, the neon lights on either side of the street flickering, with a Buick speeding down the street.
"Do you think Yunlong's sister is pretty?" Lin Ruoxue suddenly asked, tilting her head as she sat in the passenger seat.
"Ah!"
Su Chen, who was focused on driving, was slightly stunned by the question and casually asked,
"Wife, what did you just say?"
"I asked you, do you think Yunlong's sister is pretty?"
Lin Ruoxue looked at Su Chen and asked teasingly again.
"She's quite pretty, yeah," Su Chen replied indifferently, though he didn't understand why Lin Ruoxue suddenly brought this up.
Even so, he knew that complimenting another woman's looks in front of his wife was risky, especially since the woman was his wife. He added,
"But compared to you, wife, she's still far behind!"
"No matter how pretty any woman could be, compared to you, wife, there is no comparison!"
Su Chen's words were actually an exaggeration—Lin Ruoxue indeed was beautiful enough to be considered breathtakingly stunning!
Yet Yunyao was not far behind, only slightly less so, not to the exaggerated extent he claimed!
"You're just talking nonsense; I know she's very pretty," Lin Ruoxue said, well aware that he was saying this just to please her, yet she felt very flattered.
"Does she like you?" Lin Ruoxue then asked casually, yet after asking, her beautiful eyes stared intently at Su Chen.
"What are you thinking?"
On hearing Lin Ruoxue's words, Su Chen couldn't help but find it a bit ridiculous,
"At best, she's a friend, and that's only because of Yunlong."
"Besides, she knows we're married. Do you think a distinguished lady of the Yun Family would be interested in a married man?"
"That's hard to say; if a woman falls in love with a man, reasoning doesn't always apply,"
Lin Ruoxue coldly commented:
"Besides, although you have many faults, you do have a way with women."
When Lin Ruoxue spoke these words, there was a hint of melancholy in her tone.
She didn't quite understand it— the women at the company seemed to have a good impression of him.
Especially the women from the public relations department, who seemed too familiar with him...
