"Can you say that again?" Lin Hai blinked, almost losing control of his shock.

He couldn't help but be astonished. Although Huahua had come of age, saying in front of a grown man that her inflatable doll was stolen was a bit...

Actually, Lin Hai was even more curious about how low someone could stoop to steal from a girl, and moreover, an inflatable doll of a young girl?

"Wuuu, my inflatable doll was stolen, uncle, help me get it back, wuuuuu." Huahua rubbed her teary eyes, her mouth pouting so much it almost turned into a chrysanthemum, tugging at the corner of Lin Hai's shirt, violently shaking it.

"Cough, cough, shake it gently. Uncle's clothes are low quality, street market goods, shake it more and it'll fall apart. If the CEO sees it, he'll definitely think I'm worse than a beast again." Lin Hai quickly freed himself from Huahua's grip. He had been through this sort of thing too many times and had gradually developed some defensive tactics.

"Oh, uncle, you must help me get even, get my inflatable doll back." Huahua said determinedly, waving her little fists furiously, looking resolutely set on revenge.

Lin Hai nodded, "Huahua, what do you want an inflatable doll for?"

"Of course to play with."

"This..."

"I like hugging it to sleep at night, it's so comfortable." Huahua blinked innocently, truly making it hard for one to imagine she would be playing with an inflatable doll at night... and comfortably at that, it was just too... whatever.

"Cough, cough, Huahua, where did you buy your inflatable doll from?" Lin Hai wanted to clear some things up.

"Obviously, from Taobao. Actually, I was planning on going to JD.com, but Milk Tea got dumped, I'm so heartbroken, so I went to buy on Taobao instead. That shop is ten-star diamond-rated, trustworthy reputation, reliable quality, and their prices are pretty fair too," Huahua earnestly explained.

"Cough, cough, alright, nothing more to say, who stole your... doll? Uncle will help you get it back," Lin Hai felt assured, it seemed that Taobao did indeed sell all those weird 'intimate' items and dolls.

No choice but to believe it for Lin Hai.

Hearing this, Huahua happily hugged Lin Hai's thigh, incessantly trying to climb his body.

"What are you doing? Your highness," Lin Hai was startled as the little lady's knee was right up against a critical spot.

"I want to give uncle a kiss."

"Cough, cough, you're a big star after all, let's not do this, okay?" Lin Hai was at the peak of embarrassment.

"Oh, okay, the one who stole my inflatable doll is Qiang from the ordinary residential area behind us, it seems he's in kindergarten," Huahua provided the 'enemy's' information to Lin Hai.

"What? Kindergarten? Qiang? Is this some kind of mistake?"

Sweat broke out on Lin Hai's forehead. Would he, the King of Soldiers, really go and beat up a kindergarten kid?

And besides, you're an adult, letting a kindergarten kid steal an inflatable doll from you, that's just unbelievable.

"You're asking me, an adult, to go and... no, to go and retaliate against a kindergarten kid? Could I really do that?" Lin Hai inquired.

Huahua pouted again, looking so wronged that tears started falling drop by drop.

"Don't, don't cry, Your Highness," Lin Hai panicked. He feared most seeing a girl's tears; people who didn't know better might think he was bullying the little young girl.

"Qiang is really strong, wuuu, I can't beat him, he's so mean," Huahua pouted, trying to draw some sympathy from Lin Hai.

Lin Hai, feeling helpless, nodded and sighed, "Alright, I promise you, let's go find Qiang."

"Yeah! Uncle is the best, uncle kiss-kiss, uncle hug, uncle..." Huahua instantly beamed with joy.

...

Ten minutes later, behind a tree at the entrance to an ordinary residential area, Huahua points at a guy and says, "Hand over my inflatable doll, or else—hmph—see the uncle behind me? One punch and you're dead."

Lin Hai's head is full of black lines.

A round head peeks out from behind the big tree, robust and tiger-like, snorting in disdain upon seeing Huahua before stepping out.

"Damn, is this TM Qiang? This guy is like a jumbo-sized Qiang, isn't he? He definitely looks like a high school student!" Lin Hai exclaims, his eyes bulging, as he sees Qiang stand out from behind the tree, standing a whole 1.8 meters tall and looking very sturdy.

"I was afraid the uncle wouldn't agree, so I lied to you," Huahua, looking embarrassed, admits with a twist of her hips.

Lin Hai coughs, and at this point, it doesn't matter whether it's a kindergartener or a high school student.

"Kid, give me back Huahua's inflatable doll."

After Lin Hai speaks, he fiercely grabs a tree branch, breaks it with force, and then rolls up his sleeves to show off the dense scars and muscles on his arms.

Huahua, looking at those scars and muscles, almost drools, her eyes practically watering with desire.

Qiang freezes for a moment, seemingly realizing that the Lin Hai in front of him is not to be trifled with; he reluctantly brings his hands from behind his back with a resentful glance at Huahua.

"Here, but let's get one thing straight—you can't hit me, or I'll tell my mom," Qiang says, clearly trying to be smart about it.

Lin Hai is stunned, then nearly petrified.

What Qiang holds in his hands—indeed it's an inflatable doll.

However—

"This TM is an extra-thick plastic balloon of Pleasant Goat!"

Seeing the so-called "inflatable doll" that Huahua was talking about, Lin Hai almost sprays out a mouthful of old blood.

He feels stupid for having imagined Huahua embracing an inflatable doll at night; he knew from his vast experiences that Taobao also sells inflatable dolls for females, but the reality before him is a far cry from his fantasies.

"Wuwu, my baby doll." Huahua embraces the Pleasant Goat balloon, her small eyes curved into crescent moons with joy.

Lin Hai is utterly speechless.

"Let's go, back to the villa. I feel like if we stay here any longer, I won't be able to suppress the toxins any more," Lin Hai coughs and extends his hand to Huahua, forgetting that he still holds the broken tree branch in hand, its broken end sharp and jagged.

Accidentally, the tree branch pokes the inflatable doll... err, I mean, the Pleasant Goat balloon.

Holding the Pleasant Goat and looking blissfully happy, Huahua suddenly hears a "pop" sound and gets so scared that she instantly sits on the ground, dazed.

"Dammit." Lin Hai feels like he has committed a crime.

"Waaahh, uncle is mean, uncle is so mean, my inflatable doll is broken, uncle broke it, you were too rough," Huahua's tears stream continuously down her delicate cheeks.

"Ma'am, my ancestor, let's go, it's my fault, I'll buy you ten later." Lin Hai, seeing the strange looks from passersby, is on the verge of losing all face. He picks up Huahua in his arms and hurriedly runs toward the villa, leaving the broken pieces of Pleasant Goat to scatter in the wind, along with a single sparkling teardrop from Huahua.

After returning to the villa, just as they enter the living room, Huahua breaks free from his grip and runs towards the kitchen while crying out, "Sister Ouyang, the uncle is nasty, the uncle violently used Dabang to poke and ruin mine."

"Holy crap! This... sh*t...!" Lin Hai's eyes pop out of his head.

The sound of a spatula dropping to the floor clangs from the kitchen.

Ten seconds later.

"Beast Lin!!!!!" Ouyang Xiaoya's voice, seething with rage, bellows from the kitchen.
