"What's going on?"

The director Li Erbao, who usually called me brother, is said to be promoted to deputy director at the end of this year. We just had drinks, dinner, and sang songs together a few days ago. Why the heck did he suddenly turn his back on me?

Suddenly, he realized that Lin Hai just took a phone call and the other party immediately hung up.

Isn't this guy just a security guard?

Could it be he's not really a security guard?

Maybe he's slightly connected, so Li Erbao doesn't want to stir up trouble?

Yes, that must be it.

"Don't, don't come over."

Seeing Lin Hai's huge fists, Zhao Diao swallowed hard, thinking about his own frail, pleasure-seeking body—if he actually took a punch, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"You, you wouldn't dare let me make another call, would you?" Zhao Diao asked stupidly.

"No problem!" Lin Hai said with a smile, handing over his phone, much to Zhao Diao's surprise.

Taking the phone clumsily, Zhao Diao thought for a moment and dialed a number with a solemn expression.

The call was quickly answered, and the voice on the other end was very serious, like that of a superior.

"Who is this?"

"Director Xiao, I've been attacked by an assassin. Please, for the sake of my father and Young Master Chen, you have to save me."

"What? Huadu is a city with very good public security, what kind of riff-raff dares to cause trouble? Where are you? I will immediately send SWAT to the scene. This is an outrage, I want to see what kind of creature dares to touch Young Master Zhao!"

Director Xiao?

Lin Hai recognized the voice as that of an old acquaintance, Xiao Selang.

"Kid, I let you make your call, now would you dare to let me speak a few words with the person on the phone?"

Lin Hai asked with a smile.

"Huh?"

Zhao Diao was stunned. Could it be that this guy knew Director Xiao too?

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

He shook his head vigorously, it seemed like Lin Hai was just trying to scare him.

"Yes, he must be bluffing, huh, he dares to take Director Xiao's call, I would lend him ten guts!"

The phone was handed to Lin Hai and Zhao Diao sneered weirdly, "Kid, I advise you to be smart and stop pretending, don't blame me for not warning you, Director Xiao has a nasty temper."

"Be careful not to pretend yourself into trouble."

"That's none of your concern, you should worry more about the tragic fate awaiting you."

Lin Hai took the phone and said, "Hello, how are you?"

"Who are you? I warn you, if you dare to touch a hair on my good brother, Young Master Zhao, I swear you won't leave Huadu alive!"

Director Xiao's voice was full of vigor and domineering, a result of the pill Lin Hai gave him a while ago to help eradicate the RX Heaven toxin from his body.

"Kid, I know you might have some connections, but let me advise you—don't try to save face. It's not going to end well for you if you truly offend Director Xiao."

Zhao Diao said smugly, regaining his composure and confidence, briskly straightening his clothes as he anticipated Lin Hai's impending doom.

"Director Xiao, such a big voice, such a commanding presence, it's bad for my weak heart."

"Humph, if you have a bad heart then don't—"

Xiao Selang's voice came to an abrupt halt.

"Who is this? Mr. Lin?"

A tentative, feeble voice followed after a few seconds.

"Heh, I thought you wouldn't recognize me."

"Ah, Xiao was just giving orders to his subordinates, and forgot he was still on the call."

"Whatever was said before certainly wasn't meant for Mr. Lin."

"Mr. Lin, please be magnanimous and patient. Xiao truly didn't do it on purpose."

Zhao Diao furiously dug at his own ear. Could it be he drank too much and was having hallucinations?

What kind of international joke is this?

Lin Hai casually lit a cigarette, glanced at the dumbstruck Zhao Diao, and then resumed speaking on the phone, "It's fine. I'm a person of generous measure and I don't sweat the small stuff."

"Aiyo, I knew Mr. Lin was broad-minded and forgiving. Xiao will definitely make it up to you and arrange a proper reception for Mr. Lin another day."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, then Xiao Selang asked anxiously, "Mr. Lin, is someone trying to trouble you? Rest assured, Xiao can immediately mobilize the SWAT, armed police, criminal police, public security patrol, and even the fire brigade to take action together. I really want to see which bastard dares to touch Mr. Lin."

Zhao Diao was completely thrown into disarray, filled with fear, unease, and helplessness.

Sh*t, who exactly is this guy?

Why does he have such clout?

Moreover, Xiao Selang's treatment of him and Lin Hai was completely different.

"Fool Zhao, I'm warning you, if you dare to mess with Mr. Lin, I'll flay you alive within minutes!"

In the phone call, Xiao Selang's voice was very annoyed, very stern, and very angry.

Zhao Diao was completely dumbstruck; he had previously looked down on Lin Hai, but now he was filled with deep fear and confusion.

"Zhao Diao, wise up," Lin Hai said with a smile.

"Don't, don't come any closer, Muxin, you have to speak up for me."

Wang Muxin completely ignored Zhao Diao, obsessedly gazing at Lin Hai's retreating figure.

This man, indeed she couldn't see through him.

The last time he mentioned helping her with a problem, Yunlong Small Company was directly annihilated, and it seemed Li Yuejing just vanished off the face of the earth.

At that time, she thought it was a coincidence.

Now it appears that everything Lin Hai did was for her sake.

What kind of woman wouldn't be like this, even if at her core she was good and didn't despise the poor to court the wealthy? But what woman doesn't yearn for the man she likes to be a little stronger?

At present, though Lin Hai hasn't punched through a wall or thrown around his weight in an overbearing manner, a mere word of his made the chief of police in Huadu tremble. This capability was a perfect display of his power.

"Spare me this once," Zhao Diao said weakly.

"If you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place? You insulted President Ouyang and bullied Muxin; this matter requires punishment."

"What punishment? I can give you money, just don't punish me."

"Sorry, I'm not interested in money. You almost messed with my woman; do you think that can be solved with money?"

"One million!"

"Stop talking nonsense."

"Two million!"

"Heh, don't care!"

"Three million, I can't do more."

Zhao Diao had the urge to die. Why doesn't this guy even blink at three million?

Wang Muxin became even more infatuated. Linlin was doing all this for her, not caring even about three million. It must be true love, definitely true love.

Naturally, Lin Hai wouldn't fancy three million. If really to talk about money, the amount Judge was taking care of for him in Europe was already astronomical.

"Sorry, the punishment starts now!"

Lin Hai reached out his hand and delivered a fierce slap.

"Ah!"

"Bang!"

With a dull thud, Zhao Diao's frail body made intimate contact with the wall.

At this moment, he was plastered against the wall, striking a rather saucy "big" character pose, with a line of blood running down the wall from his nose.

Once again, Wang Muxin's eyes lit up with little stars.
