"You...you call this an explanation?" Lin Hai stared at Little Scorpion, their eyes wide open.

"Wuwu, Uncle, I was just afraid that Ouyang might misunderstand you."

"Don't you think she's already misunderstood?" Lin Hai asked again.

"Wuwu, I was explaining."

"That's not explaining, that's adding insult to injury!"

Lin Hai frowned, his already weak face looking even frailer.

"CEO, do you really think I'm the kind of person worse than a beast?" Lin Hai wanted to retort.

Ouyang Xiaoya snorted coldly: "Dead beast, you should be called 'can't go a day without courting death Comfortably'."

Lin Hai sheepishly closed his mouth, having been around Ouyang Xiaoya for so long, he'd sort of ground out a bit of her character and habits. If Ouyang Xiaoya showed her chilly Iceberg CEO demeanor, that meant the boss was very angry, and the consequences would be severe.

If fury burned in Ouyang Xiaoya's beautiful eyes, the outcome was absolutely not good.

But when Ouyang Xiaoya called him a beast, there usually were no bad consequences.

Lin Hai had now automatically turned "Beast Lin" into the "term of endearment" that the boss wife used for him.

"Hehe, wife, I knew you care about me, believe me, I'm pure."

Lin Hai kept blinking his eyes in a flattering manner.

Ouyang Xiaoya snorted coldly, her voice airy as she walked towards the ward: "Aren't you coming in to see your Queen Qi?"

"Yes, Lin at your command, hehe."

Lin Hai scurried after the CEO.

"Uncle, wait for me." Little Scorpion followed with small steps, and sneakily picked up the "evidence" lighter from the ground, thinking if she really did encounter a big pervert in the future, she'd use today's trick and burn the pervert to death.

When Lin Hai reached the door of the ward, his steps involuntarily paused.

At this moment, he felt really nervous, afraid that something had gone wrong with Queen Qi.

Although the CEO had already said over the phone that Queen Qi was out of mortal danger, it was only said that the danger was passed, and these things could recur.

With a complex mood, Lin Hai clenched his teeth, no more fear, he would go in and see. Even if it meant he was gravely hurt and depleted all his Gang Qi, he had to save Queen Qi's life.

Just for that sentence, "You are Weiwei's man, how can I let you take risks?"—that was enough!

A man's passion is to be shown in meaningful moments, not in impulse and losing one's temper.

Lin Hai's hand was on the doorknob, which felt heavy, not knowing how he managed to push the door open, his back covered in cold sweat.

His gaze immediately went to the bed.

He saw a pretty and pale face, those open, moist eyes also happened to look his way.

Those moist eyes blinked, and Lin Hai finally came back to his senses.

"This..." I thought Queen Qi was deep in a coma, yet she's already woken up. That's just too awesome.

Lin Hai quickly walked to Queen Qi's side, his hand probing her jade arm, taking her pulse, focusing his observations intensely.

Queen Qi's pulse was very weak, clearly the result of excessive blood loss following her injury.

Yet the pulse was also very strong, indicating that her body was brimming with vitality at the moment.

This stark contrast caused Lin Hai to slightly furrow his brows.

"Beast Lin, you can also treat illnesses..." Ouyang Xiaoya began, but immediately shut her mouth, remembering how she once accidentally poisoned herself with laxatives and nearly died in the bathroom. It was Lin Hai who had cured her by some unknown means.

Thinking this, Ouyang Xiaoya couldn't help but feel a slight surprise: "Wouldn't have guessed, Beast Lin actually knows medical skills. If I had to grudgingly credit him with a strength, it seems that medical skill could be counted as a specialty."

Ever since spending time with Lin Hai, Ouyang Xiaoya had been subtly influenced. Although reluctantly, she had come to acknowledge him as her fiancé. No woman wants her man to be a good-for-nothing, lazy wastrel, so during this time, Ouyang Xiaoya had been involuntarily embellishing Lin Hai with virtues in her mind, trying to fill the vast void in her heart.

A quarter of an hour passed, sweat beads formed on Lin Hai's forehead, but he still hadn't opened his eyes.

The atmosphere in the sickroom was as still as death, tense and serious because of Lin Hai's actions.

"Lin Hai, how is Weiwei doing? Have you finished diagnosing her?" Ouyang Xiaoya asked worriedly - after all, Qi Weiwei lived in the villa too, practically part of the family.

"Mm, I've treated little dogs and cats before, so that doesn't stop me from treating people," Lin Hai replied with his eyes still closed, continuing to listen and observe Queen Qi's internal condition.

"..." Ouyang Xiaoya was speechless, grinding her teeth, but said nothing, thinking to herself: "And here I thought my fiancé had finally shown a merit, turns out he's a vet!!"

Shortly after, Lin Hai opened his eyes and took a long breath.

"How is it? How is it? Weiwei is okay, right?" the ladies all asked anxiously.

Nangong Wuyue, Nangong Sanba, Hua Buqi, Ruoshuang, and Ouyang Xiaoya were all gazing intently at Lin Hai.

Lin Hai touched his face, and said awkwardly: "Don't look at me like that, do I have flowers on my face?"

"You and your deadpan jokes, just spit it out!" Ouyang Xiaoya said huffily, this guy was clearly doing it on purpose, teasing everyone's patience.

"Err, I'll tell you, I'll tell you, Weiwei's in pretty good health, there's nothing seriously wrong."

Lin Hai chuckled, but he hadn't told the whole story – Queen Qi was not just okay; as soon as her injuries recovered and after some recuperation, she would emerge completely healed as a beginner of the first-class martial arts stage.

Lin Hai had long discovered that Queen Qi had a special constitution, one that grew stronger when facing tougher challenges, with an amazing potential. So he had intentionally planted a seed of Gang Qi within her.

Coupled with Queen Qi's indomitable spirit, in just a short amount of time, her growth had been quite significant.

This time, after a life-and-death crisis, perhaps it was Queen Qi's strong survival will along with her special constitution that had allowed the Gang Qi seed to genuinely begin growing. From a second-rank level, she made a breakthrough in her coma, stepping into the strength of a first-class master.

With this breakthrough, Gang Qi began to spread throughout Queen Qi's body, nourishing and strengthening her physique, and even the grave internal injuries that posed a threat were completely healed by the vital force of this nascent Gang Qi.

One could say that Queen Qi has turned misfortune into a blessed opportunity. Once she's recovered, she won't have any issues smashing boulders with her chest or killing a bull with her bare hands.

"Phew, that's a relief. Lin Hai, I'm going to buy some groceries and cook personally for Weiwei to help her recover. You stay here and keep her company."

After giving orders, Ouyang Xiaoya left with the other ladies.

Lin Hai looked at Queen Qi, smiling broadly. Since she was okay, he could also rest easy – after all, she also carried a bit of Little Scorpion's shadow.
