Lin Hai had originally planned to come early, to chat with the CEO and foster a deeper emotional connection, but on his way, he was waylaid by Xia Chuqing and Tao Shuishui.

Especially because Tao Shuishui insisted on interrogating him left and right and even tried to unbuckle Lin Hai's belt, claiming she wanted to see what Dabang really looked like.

As a result, Lin Hai was late.

Right as he walked into the hospital, he heard a continuous, gut-wrenching scream like that of a pig being slaughtered, coming from Ouyang Xiaoya's hospital room.

Lin Hai dashed to the door of the ward at lightning speed and witnessed a shocking scene.

He saw Cao Zifeng, as pale as death, hands protectively over his private area, blood streaming from his forehead, his uniform a chaotic mess, and his pants pooled around his ankles. The black garment underneath was oozing blood non-stop, and most importantly—there was a huge syringe needle stuck in him.

"He tried to rape me." Ouyang Xiaoya relaxed somewhat when she saw Lin Hai coming, finally realizing how different it was to have a man around.

"So you used a syringe meant for large animals and stabbed it right into his vital spot?" Lin Hai asked with widened eyes, instinctively guarding his own private area with the newly bought durian, looking with trepidation at the CEO beauty.

He couldn't help but think: "Damn, now I get why the CEO is called the Iceberg CEO, so domineering. Lucky I always had such good fortune before."

Ouyang Xiaoya hastily explained, "I just pushed him, and he accidentally did this to himself."

Lin Hai felt no sympathy for Cao Zifeng; despite the likelihood of this guy's Second becoming utterly useless, it was all his own fault.

"Are you okay, CEO? Did he take advantage of you in the meantime?" Lin Hai looked over Ouyang Xiaoya with extreme concern, just a step away from physically checking her.

"I'm fine, had you arrived a few minutes later, disaster would've struck." Ouyang Xiaoya felt a warmth in her heart, Beast Lin could actually be concerned about her.

"Tsk tsk, it's pitch dark, the road is slippery, society is complex, kid, I think you'd better go back to kindergarten, it's better suited for you to survive," Lin Hai heartlessly said to Cao Zifeng.

"You'll wait, I'll make sure you pay a heavy price, that woman, I'll sell her to the inferno on earth, and as for you, I'll make you a eunuch," Cao Zifeng, with a ghastly green face and contorted features, screeched like a madman. But he moved too much, and right after speaking, the oversized syringe accidentally got knocked by his arm, bending sideways.

Lin Hai and Ouyang Xiaoya looked at each other, both finding the scene too beautiful to behold.

"Ahh!" An even more harrowing scream erupted from Cao Zifeng.

"Tsk tsk, from now on, no 'sex' blessings, truly what they say: people who are pitiable often have reasons to be despised, you won't die if you don't seek death, but if you do, it's a major one," Lin Hai nonchalantly said, fanning the flames.

Cao Zifeng glared at Lin Hai with deep resentment, his body trembling violently, a surge of rage hitting his heart, followed by his eyes rolling back as he fainted from the pain.

"CEO, I think we should get out of here," Lin Hai said, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

Ouyang Xiaoya nodded and said, "Since I'm fine now, let's get discharged."

Given the situation, it was best to make a swift exit and deal with the aftermath later.

After hurriedly leaving the hospital with the CEO, a nurse passing by Ouyang Xiaoya's room noticed the door ajar, peeked inside out of curiosity, and was instantly stunned.

Then, the whole hospital buzzed with commotion, a wave of shock, and the head of the hospital almost fainted from surprise.

As the culprits, Lin Hai and Ouyang Xiaoya, had already swiftly left the hospital and returned to the Viper Squad.

"Lin Hai, what should we do? That Cao Zifeng is from the Cao Family of Yanjing, we can't afford to offend them." Ouyang Xiaoya looked worried. Although she had a proud and unyielding spirit, she also knew when to advance or retreat. The influence of the Cao family in Yanjing was substantial.

"Chill out, what's there to be afraid of? We still haven't charged him with attempted rape." Lin Hai appeared unconcerned. If it were a local affair, he wouldn't be much concerned, aside from acknowledging Queen Qi and Mayor Tao, with whom he had an almost secret-lover type of relationship.

But in the military, Lin Hai was worry-free, after all, he had Old Mr. Tao backing him up. To the older generation, such matters were like child's play; in the eyes of the older generations, this was just a game of chess, losing a scion of a family didn't really count for much.

"Lin Hai, but..." Ouyang Xiaoya was still very worried as this matter appeared very big in her eyes.

"CEO, how about this? You go back to Huadu first. I'll stay here and observe, see if there are any familiar faces from the old military days, and see if I can find a way to settle this." Lin Hai thought for a moment and then suggested.

"But, we came here this time to pick security personnel, and we haven't finished the task yet." Ouyang Xiaoya said hesitantly.

Lin Hai furrowed his brows, deep in thought.

Before long, he showed a look of joy, slapped his forehead, and exclaimed, "Got it!"

"CEO, don't you also use WeChat? Anyway, I already have your WeChat ID, the one with the 'Daniel Wu' profile picture. Later, I'll send you photos of those soldiers' files, and you can make decisions. Isn't that OK?" Lin Hai felt more and more clever.

"Huh? Your idea is actually quite good." Ouyang Xiaoya didn't expect Lin Hai to know how to use social media to assist with work. Not bad at all.

"Hehe, of course it's good. I often do this kind of thing. Fan Jian hasn't stopped sending me Japanese classical action movies on WeChat... ugh, I didn't say anything." Lin Hai, carried away with happiness, let something slip again.

Ouyang Xiaoya was at a loss for words, a vein throbbing on her forehead. So this guy uses WeChat just to exchange "seed movies" with Fan Jian. She really shouldn't think too highly of him.

"Alright, CEO, you should quickly take off. Leave this side to me." Lin Hai said.

Ouyang Xiaoya also thought the method was feasible. There wasn't another option at the moment, so she nodded in agreement.

"Oh, right, CEO, there's one more thing." Lin Hai looked embarrassed.

"Could you leave me some funds for expenses? I don't have a single penny on me. You kept all my money before we left because you were afraid I'd go out for an erotic massage," Lin Hai sheepishly rubbed his hands together, looking expectantly at his future CEO wife.

"Sigh, how did I ever come across a freak like you." Ouyang Xiaoya was at her wit's end.

Nevertheless, she still tossed Lin Hai a bank card, saying, "There's one hundred thousand yuan in it. Spend it carefully. Once I get back to Huadu, I will use all available resources to solve this issue. Also, don't try to be too tough. If something feels off, make a run for it. I'm not the kind of CEO who'd abandon her fiancé."

After that, Ouyang Xiaoya actually felt quite touched inside. At a crucial moment, Lin Hai, who was usually lazy and gluttonous, showed a sense of responsibility and commitment.

"CEO, you should hurry." Lin Hai urged her.

"Then you must be careful. I will definitely find a way to sort this out."

Not long after Ouyang Xiaoya left Zhonghai, a group of menacing people in military uniforms came looking for them.
