"Don't be like that, I'm also doing this for your own good, right? Let's not argue anymore, give me the stuff back, we'll get in the car, and I'll pay for the ride," Lin Hai hurriedly tried to smooth things over while attempting to retrieve his belongings.

"No way, first tell me what exactly is inside this thing?" Liu Piaopiao's curiosity got the better of her, and still angry, how could she easily agree to Lin Hai's request.

"Tsk tsk, young man, your wife sure has a fiery temper," the old cab driver chuckled with a heh-heh.

Lin Hai scratched his head with an awkward smile, constantly coaxing Liu Piaopiao: "Wife, stop making trouble, please return the item to your hubby, let's make peace. I promise to take good care of you tonight, okay?"

While saying this, Lin Hai pushed Liu Piaopiao into the car. It was safer inside the car; otherwise, if she got angry and threw the Superpower Potion down the drain, he'd be doomed.

It's not that Lin Hai didn't want to drink the potion himself, but rather he wanted to get it back for the Judge and others to research. The Reincarnation company's underground internal sector did employ highly-paid scientific researchers from all around the world.

If they managed to decipher the formula of the potion, that would absolutely mean a fortune.

"Who needs you to wait on them at night? I have plenty of people to serve me," Liu Piaopiao disdainfully retorted.

"Young lady, you can't just say things like that. I think your husband is pretty decent," the old driver couldn't stand by anymore, especially after the "I have plenty of people to serve me at night." He used to carry passengers all the time; he's seen many things, and some modern young women's thoughts have been tainted by materialism, not taking love seriously, going along with anyone who gives them money, or maybe just treat them to meals, some drinks, sing some songs, and they're willing to go home with someone; excuse the crudeness, but that's even worse than a prostitute. At least prostitutes have their prices marked.

"Him? Who would even want to be his wife? I wouldn't care for such a thing," Liu Piaopiao said as she sized up Lin Hai with a contemptuous look.

The old driver could not bear to watch the girl's unreasonable behavior anymore and turned his gaze to Lin Hai.

Lin Hai blinked innocently at the old driver and said with a compensatory smile: "Don't mind her, driver sir, let's just drive."

"Young man, let me tell you, as a man, when you need to be firm, you must be firm," the old driver advised.

Lin Hai smiled appreciatively: "Thank you, sir, I know. My wife has a bit of a temper, it's just a spur-of-the-moment angry remark. Besides, when I need to be firm, I'm definitely very firm. My wife knows that, don't you? Wife?"

Liu Piaopiao gave him a side glance.

"Wife, please return my aphrodisiac to me. I'm doing this for your future happiness too."

When speaking the word "happiness," Lin Hai even emphasized the word "happy" with a bite.

"Aphrodisiac?" Liu Piaopiao's eyes widened, looking at Lin Hai in surprise.

The old driver also glanced at Lin Hai curiously. The young man looked robust, could it be that he had problems in that department?

"Cough cough, wife you know, you're insatiable at night. As the saying goes, men are like oxen, women are like fields; there are only dead oxen, no worn-out fields. I have to pay attention to maintenance, if this goes on for a few more years, I will be completely drained to death by you." Lin Hai shamelessly finished, even with a shy expression on his face.

Liu Piaopiao, looking at Lin Hai's expression, felt goosebumps all over, finding it distasteful that such a burly man would show such shyness and would actually buy "aphrodisiacs."

Liu Piaopiao could not stand to listen any longer, especially since the old driver was sizing her up with strange eyes through the rearview mirror, with a gaze similar to that of curiosity towards a thirsty girl.

"Alright, alright, wife, please return the stuff to me," Lin Hai extended his hand.

After knowing that the item was aphrodisiac, Liu Piaopiao felt disgusted as if she had swallowed a dead fly, her curiosity completely gone, and threw the item back at Lin Hai with revulsion.

Lin Hai carefully put away the item, then chuckled sheepishly to the taxi driver, "Master, could you please take me to the Rainbow Villa District?"

"Oh? Young man, going to visit a friend?" the experienced driver asked while starting the car.

"Nope, I'm heading home. I live there," Lin Hai responded truthfully.

Pfft—

The driver almost yanked the steering wheel off in surprise, looking at Lin Hai again to confirm he was wearing a security guard's uniform, and tentatively asked, "You live in the villa district?"

"Yeah, what's the problem with me living in the villa district?" Lin Hai said with a smile.

Liu Piaopiao also wore a face of disbelief and scrutinized Lin Hai carefully. The guy exuded a "poor man's" aura from head to toe. Could he afford to live in the villa district? With the land prices in Huadu, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it worth its weight in gold. She herself only lived in a 60 square meter apartment. Could a little security guard be richer than her? Could he afford a villa? She would never believe it.

The old driver now couldn't quite figure out Lin Hai's identity, looked at Liu Piaopiao with her fashionable dress and polished appearance, and that little purse - it looked quite valuable. To be able to marry such a woman, he thought, it's definitely not as simple as a small security guard; the guy must be rich.

"Do you really live in the villa district?" The driver still couldn't believe it.

"Ah, Master, just drive will you? Once we get there, you'll know whether I live in a villa or not."

Lin Hai said, chuckling as he lit up a cigarette.

Today, the roads were surprisingly clear of traffic.

All the way, Lin Hai teased Liu Piaopiao through the rearview mirror, infuriating her so much that she gritted her teeth and fumbled towards her waist multiple times, only to remember she didn't bring her gun and reluctantly stopped.

Soon, the car arrived at Ouyang Xiaoya's villa gate.

Lin Hai thanked the driver with a smile, carrying his "aphrodisiac" and under the bewildered gaze of the driver and Liu Piaopiao, strutted to the villa's wrought iron gate, took out his keys, opened the gate, and as he entered the courtyard, he even made sure to wave towards the taxi.

The old driver was dumbfounded and muttered, "The kid actually lives in a villa; you can't tell—your husband is a rich man."

The villa's gate closed again, and Lin Hai approached the house inside.

Liu Piaopiao also looked shocked and muttered to herself, "How can this little security guard live in a villa? Impossible."

"Right, your husband got out of the car, why aren't you getting down?" the curious driver asked.

Liu Piaopiao then angrily said, "Who's his wife? I have absolutely nothing to do with him."

"Now about the fare for this ride..." the driver said hesitantly, looking at Officer Liu.

Liu Piaopiao suddenly realized, Lin Hai hadn't paid for the taxi when he got out. Looking at the closed villa gate, she figured calling out would be in vain.

"Damn it!" Liu Piaopiao couldn't help but swear out loud, annoyed at being unexpectedly tricked by the little security guard.

"Young lady, just to be clear, don't think you can get away without paying just because you're pretty. You were just tacitly acknowledging yourself as his wife, and it's not easy for me to make a trip by car..." the driver started to prattle on.

"Stop talking, I'll pay for all of it!" Liu Piaopiao nearly gritted her teeth as she spoke these words.
