Lin Hai stood dumbfounded, looking at the woman who had just steadied herself in front of him—it was someone he knew!

"Li Jingjing!"

"Lin Hai!"

Both of them exclaimed in surprise, simultaneously.

He hadn't expected such a situation for their encounter.

Lin Hai gawked at this girl, who was relatively quiet in the office, also knowing she was Bitch Li's niece.

What surprised him though, was that he distinctly felt a slight vibration and tremor coming from a certain part of the beauty.

This kind of thing, Lin Hai was all too familiar with.

Even through their brief contact just now, the "experienced" Lin Hai could guess that the thing was most likely from a top world-class private lifestyle product design brand.

Are girls nowadays this fierce? Going out with weapons and sticks, does it need to be this thrilling?

Li Jingjing was also surprised as she looked at Lin Hai.

"How come you are here?" Lin Hai clearly noticed the awkwardness of the atmosphere, immediately spoke to cover it up, and asked as if nothing had happened.

Li Jingjing's gaze darted around, unable to look Lin Hai in the eye, stuttering, and clearly sensing some sort of problem.

"I, I, I came here with my boyfriend to see his mother."

"Oh~" Lin Hai nodded in understanding, showing no sign of anything amiss.

Li Jingjing looked at Lin Hai with a somewhat panicked expression, afraid that he would spill the beans about her secret at the office.

In the office, she had always presented herself as a pure and innocent girl; if this were revealed… it would undoubtedly become a sensational piece of gossip at the office.

By then, it would probably be impossible for her to continue working at the company; even the office men who were smitten by her would start to distance themselves, and her connections would also be damaged.

For a moment, Li Jingjing held a bit of resentment towards Lin Hai for his appearance, but she didn't show it, instead, putting on a pitiful look and throwing secret longing glances at Lin Hai.

Lin Hai sneered internally, really taking me for a rich fool, thinking I'm the type who goes weak at the knees and can't move when seeing a beautiful woman?

However, the old rogue thoughts in Lin Hai's mind quietly arose, and with a silent laugh, he pretended to be utterly enchanted by Li Jingjing, his eyes under deliberate control, appearing drooling and dim-witted with desire.

Seeing Lin Hai's reaction, Li Jingjing internally scoffed, thinking she was dealing with an upright security deputy captain, but with one quiet seduction, he turned out to be such a loser; men truly are all the same, probably wishing they could tear off her skirt and kneel down to kiss her.

"Jingjing, you're truly beautiful," Lin Hai said, his mouth watering.

Li Jingjing despised Lin Hai inwardly, but on the surface, she put on a pitiful look and semi-probingly asked, "Brother Lin, did you find out about that thing just now?"

Lin Hai froze for a moment, then displayed an exceedingly hesitant expression.

Li Jingjing, seeing this, immediately understood that Lin Hai knew about her affair.

Her thoughts raced like lightning, quickly deliberating, and Li Jingjing made a decision right away.

"Brother Lin!" Li Jingjing glanced around, noticing no one was passing by at the moment, inconspicuously moving closer to Lin Hai, with a breathy, soft pant.

Lin Hai gulped but was inwardly thinking, hmph, little green tea bitch, starting to seduce me now.

"Any instructions? Jingjing, I'll go through fire and water for you," Lin Hai declared with an impassioned expression as if he was brimming with enthusiasm.

Li Jingjing inwardly cursed Lin Hai as trash, thinking that he was so easily seduced, and from now on, she would have a tool to use and exploit within the company's security department.

In the depths of her heart, Li Jingjing already felt victorious and saw Lin Hai as a tool she could use. She even considered rewarding him when necessary, such as making him obediently kneel before her to kiss and tend to her needs.

Li Jingjing thought for a moment and said, "Brother Lin, thank you for saving me just now. If it weren't for your help, I might have twisted my ankle. You truly are my savior."

"It's nothing, nothing at all, Sister Jingjing. If there's anything you need help with at the company in the future, just tell Brother Lin and I'll make sure it gets done," Lin Hai replied with the air of a lecher, greedily ogling her as he patted his chest and nodded vigorously.

Li Jingjing sneered inwardly; how easily she had captured Lin Hai. Looking at his sturdy body, she thought playing with him could certainly be interesting.

Just then, the faint sound of footsteps approached.

Li Jingjing hastily pulled down her skirt, her pretty face blushed and more radiant, her eyes shimmering with seductive moisture, and a slightly shy expression on her face; her blend of innocence and allure would surely be the demise of many young men confined to their solo pleasures.

However, for Lin Hai, she was still too naive, not even close to the level of the Female Battle Lord; she couldn't hold a candle to her.

"Yuejing, why are you here by the staircase?" A young man in flashy attire, dressed in a spotless white suit and with a slightly arrogant expression, walked over, slightly frowning at Li Jingjing.

"Yuejing? Sh*t, that pinyin sounds the same as that word," Lin Hai thought mischievously to himself.

Li Jingjing regained her composure, showing a sunny and harmonious happy smile, and said to the man, "Brother Yu, I just happened to run into a colleague from the company here."

The young man known as Brother Yu glanced coldly at Lin Hai, sneered audibly, and without hiding his disdainful look, said sarcastically, "This colleague of yours must work in the warehouse or the restroom of your company, right?"

Li Jingjing forced an awkward smile and gave Young Master Yu a look conveying "What can I do, such a bothersome suitor is really annoying."

Lin Hai chuckled inside, acknowledging the woman's tricks.

"This is my Brother Yu, Yu Haijing, one of Huadu's five wealthiest playboys, Young Master Yu," Li Jingjing clearly wanted to provoke Lin Hai, to later show him kindness and pretend to care for his wounded pride; by then, Lin Hai would surely be totally submissive to her.

"Ha ha, Young Master Yu, it's a pleasure to meet you," Lin Hai extended his hand, posing to shake hands with Yu Haijing.

Yu Haijing sneered, ignoring Lin Hai's handshake gesture, and coldly advised, "Little brother, you seem like you've been through society too, let me give you a piece of advice — know your place, not everyone is within your reach."

Lin Hai awkwardly withdrew his hand, secretly sneering inside.

Li Jingjing watched Lin Hai's facial expressions and snickered inwardly, thinking him just a lowly pleb who couldn't take a bit of provocation.

But little did she know that she had been completely seen through by Lin Hai; he was just indulging in the amusement of playing along with their need to flaunt their sense of superiority.

"And let me give you another piece of advice; although Yuejing, due to her status, could never be brought into a respectable household, she will always be my pet in bed, not someone you are fit to touch," Yu Haijing said with a disdainful arrogant smile, sparing no mercy in his words.

Li Jingjing's face changed for a moment, but then relaxed, and she even showed Yu Haijing an apologetic smile.

Lin Hai, on the other hand, appeared to be livid, struggling to control his angry impulses.

Seeing Lin Hai's hands clenched tightly on his clothing, veins bulging, Yu Haijing sneered at his apparent disdain.

Li Jingjing kept making eyes at Lin Hai, signaling him to back off and not to mess with Young Master Yu, who was one of Huadu's five most notorious playboys, belonging to the top echelon of young masters in Huadu.

"Kid, don't hold back, got something to say? I'll give you a chance," said Yu Haijing with a condescending look, gazing down upon Lin Hai.

"Heh, Young Master Yu, I'm an uneducated man, I'll take my leave now, perhaps we'll meet again if fate allows," Lin Hai suddenly laughed, shook his head, and turned to go upstairs.

Yu Haijing let out a scornful sneer.

As Lin Hai reached the staircase, he suddenly turned sharply, looking directly at Yu Haijing, and coldly proclaimed, "The vicissitudes of life are long! We'll see what the future holds!"

After he spoke, Lin Hai vanished from their sights, leaving Li Jingjing staring in stupefied shock and Yu Haijing with a slightly surprised look.

After a long pause, Yu Haijing sneered to himself, "A mere ant still dreams of a devil's revolt?"

Yu Haijing left the hospital with Li Jingjing clinging to his arm. As for the ant-like Lin Hai, he was immediately forgotten as Yu Haijing's mind was preoccupied with thoughts of leveraging tonight's business opportunity to finally have dinner with one of Huadu's two Iceberg Goddesses, President Ouyang - a dream opportunity he had longed for. He would have to carefully plan, and incidentally ask Li Jingjing about some of President Ouyang's preferences, hoping to capture the goddess's heart in the evening.
