Lin Hai returned home late at night; the Huadu police were destined to be sleepless tonight, but that didn't matter to him. As a member of Star Plate, he had received professional training from Shen Dun and Shura and could easily disguise a murder scene as an act of vengeance, passion, or even suicide.

Returning to his room, everything was peaceful; the CEO hadn't come to check on him tonight.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Hai luxuriously lay in bed, ready to sleep, but he noticed his computer seemed to be on.

Driven by curiosity, he gently jostled the mouse, and the screen lit up.

It was paused on a scene from a movie, and everything suggested that someone had hurriedly used his computer.

Moreover, the movie's content was enough to make Lin Hai's hair stand on end.

This movie... wasn't it the Ouyang action blockbuster that Fan Jian copied for him last time but which he hadn't watched yet? And it was an extremely, extremely violent one.

The scene was paused on a black and white, you know, that...

"Damn it, who messed with my computer? Who dug out my 'Education on the Party's Advanced Qualities' hidden folder? There's a whole 1TB of seeds here plus over 500 high-definition blockbusters... Who sneakily watched this?" Lin Hai was in disarray.

Including him, there were five people living in the villa: Ouyang Xiaoya, Queen Qi, Ruoshuang, himself, and Huahua, who insisted on hiring Lin Hai as her bodyguard.

Queen Qi was injured and definitely wouldn't wander around—she was almost suffocating in her room every day, so she was ruled out as a suspect.

Ruoshuang had recently gone on a mountain climbing trip with a school group, so she was also ruled out as a suspect.

As for Huahua? This young lady had been out of sight recently. A cute little star who could easily be robbed by high school kids even with her Pleasant Goat inflatable doll—she probably didn't have the guts to do it, right? Hmm, her suspect status was barely ruled out, especially since Huahua seemed clueless about these matters, and without any motive.

So that left himself and Ouyang Xiaoya.

Lin Hai clearly remembered that although he hadn't turned off the computer after reading his emails, he definitely hadn't touched the movie file folder.

Moreover, finding the hidden folder required certain computer knowledge.

In the entire villa, the person with the highest educational credentials was none other than President Ouyang Xiaoya.

"I'll be damned, the CEO, she actually went through my computer and even watched this kind of movie... This..." Lin Hai was speechless. The CEO's taste in movies seemed a bit too intense for him, even something he hadn't managed to watch himself.

In his mind, he couldn't help imagining a scene: Ouyang Xiaoya sneaking into his room with a guilty conscience when he was away, looking around suspiciously, and then taking the opportunity to turn on his computer. Using her extensive knowledge from studying abroad, she opened the folder containing 500 movies and secretly watched them, her shoulders shaking with muffled laughter...

Lin Hai dared not think further; any more thoughts would lead to swelling pain and nosebleeds.

"Who would've guessed, I never would've guessed, the CEO suddenly had an epiphany and stealthily watched Hollywood blockbusters on my computer..." Lin Hai paced around, his expression one of deep thought.

Zhang Shenxu had kicked the bucket, and his stress was suddenly much lighter. Should he have a deep conversation with the CEO? That was the question!

"If it really was the CEO who watched it, she would definitely be shy. With a little initiative from me, I reckon the CEO would give in after some resistance... Toppling the Iceberg Goddess CEO seems to be within reach tomorrow."

Checking the time, it was already late at night. Lin Hai smoked a cigarette, then decisively forced himself to sleep. He needed to be fully rested to ensure he'd leave an unforgettable impression of beauty and profound conquest on the CEO the first time.

...

Early the next morning, Lin Hai got up and washed up—washing his hair, brushing his teeth several times, and taking a shower—before sitting down at the dining table, eagerly waiting for breakfast and keeping an eye on the CEO's room.

"Wow, Beast Lin, you're up early today." Ouyang Xiaoya came downstairs wearing a cute, heart-patterned pajama set. Her bare feet touching the wooden floor, she stretched lazily, yawning as she spoke casually to Lin Hai.

"Eh? CEO, why are your eyes so bloodshot?" Lin Hai noticed that Ouyang Xiaoya seemed haggard, with many blood vessels visible in her eyes.

Covering her cute little mouth with her hand, Ouyang Xiaoya yawned repeatedly and said, "I didn't sleep well last night, I was tossing and turning until midnight, and I'm feeling a bit overheated today."

"Overheated?" Upon hearing this, Lin Hai thought to himself: "Watching those kinds of movies alone, how could you not be overheated? If it were me, I'd be in agony."

"Also, tossing and turning until midnight? Could it be that the CEO last night...? Oh, crap!"

Lin Hai didn't dare to continue this line of thought. It was already a time when his vigor was at its peak in the early morning, and random musings could lead to inexplicable pain.

"Sigh, Huahua insisted on crawling into my bed in the middle of the night, claiming she was scared of the dark," Ouyang Xiaoya continued, her seductive figure turning heads as she swiveled her enticing hips and walked into the bathroom to freshen up.

"Jeez, I guess the CEO watched that sort of movie until late last night. You can tell just by looking at her state today," Lin Hai thought lewdly to himself.

"Hey, CEO, were you watching a movie last night?" Lin Hai decided to give a probing question.

From inside the bathroom came Ouyang Xiaoya's puzzled reply: "How did you know? I watched until after two o'clock, a romance film."

"Crap, it was a romance film as expected. The CEO is so clever, she deliberately left out a few words, provoking my imagination, conveying her intention, and hinting at the effect," Lin Hai thought, reaching conclusions in his own mind.

"CEO, did you touch my computer?" Lin Hai moved to extend the conversation.

"No? Why would I mess around with your computer? Besides, this CEO despises entering a room no better than a dog kennel," Ouyang Xiaoya's voice floated from the bathroom.

Lin Hai chuckled to himself, thinking: "Go ahead and pretend, CEO, just keep pretending. Women say no with their lips, but their hearts say don't stop... I understand too well."

As he fantasized about "springtime arriving," suddenly a scream came from the bathroom.

"Ah."

"CEO? What happened?" Lin Hai hurriedly asked with concern.

"Sniffling, I'm too overheated, I've got a nosebleed," Ouyang Xiaoya said.

"Eh? Oh crap?" Lin Hai's eyes widened as he confirmed that the CEO was definitely hinting at him.

"Beast Lin, quickly bring me some toilet paper, help me wipe off a bit," Ouyang Xiaoya's voice urgently called out.

"This..." Lin Hai's eyes nearly popped out.
