"By the way, I've got one last thing to inform you: I'm planning to send an entire squad of bodyguards to protect you!"
These words were spoken through gritted teeth by his dear wife; even over the phone, Lin Hai could hear the grinding of teeth.
"Honey, we were just chatting on WeChat earlier!" Lin Hai hurriedly explained.
"So what about WeChat? Once words are spoken, they're like spilled water!" Ouyang Xiaoya replied coldly.
"But it's WeChat, you can only half believe it, I was just joking."
"I took it seriously!"
Lin Hai took a deep breath, realizing he had to use all his lifeti experience in wooing right now, or else he might not appease his wife's fury.
With this thought in mind, he quickly typed on WeChat: "Given the situation, there are so things I must tell you."
"What do you want to say?" The CEO replied.
"I want to say, I no longer want to be your fiancé, nor do I want to be just your boyfriend!"
ssage sent successfully.
After doing this, he hurriedly typed the next line: "I want to be your husband!"
After this ssage was sent, a big red exclamation mark appeared in the front.
"~Xiaoya has enabled friend verification. You are not their friend. Please send a friend verification request. After the other party approves, you can chat."
"Sh*t!" The exclamation mark behind the ssage indicates it's not sent because you're not friends.
"Honey, listen to my explanation, I have more to say, I was trying to be romantic." Still an exclamation mark.
"Damn it!"
"Honey, I'm sorry!"
Lin Hai quickly reapplied to add her as a friend, even adding a note in the request: "Honey, listen to my explanation, I missed half a sentence earlier."
Then he continued to send various apology ssages, all refused because they were not friends yet.
"Sh*t!"
Lin Hai's current expression was one mixed with tears and worry.
"Sh*t!"
This ssage had no exclamation mark, aning it was sent successfully.
"Huh?" Lin Hai widened his eyes. The timing couldn't have been more precise, could it?
"So, you were just trying to tell that half a sentence? Sh*t? Beast Lin, I'll rember those two words!"
Ouyang Xiaoya's ssage dripped with an extre coldness in every word.
"It was a misunderstanding earlier, honey…" ssage not sent successfully.
"I..."
After several futile attempts, Lin Hai looked up to the sky at a 45-degree angle, almost feeling like tears of frustration and exasperation were about to spill over.
Looks like going ho will be tough.
Drip——
This ti, the phone rang directly, but the number wasn't displayed, only the word "Unknown."
"Damn, I'm in a lousy mood, and now there's a spam call!"
Lin Hai picked up the phone with irritation, "Are you selling tea or promoting erotic massages? I'm seriously pissed right now!"
"Haha, is this Lin Hai?" A hearty laugh, seemingly from a middle-aged man, ca from the phone.
"Huh?"
Lin Hai was puzzled; he didn't seem to recognize this voice.
"Who are you?"
"Who I am doesn't matter. Didn't you call Old Mr. Tao yesterday, hoping to et Ghost Master?" the voice on the phone said.
Lin Hai beca vigilant: "Tell your na."
"I fear it might scare you," the phone's answer left Lin Hai speechless.
"I've been scared by people since I was small; you're not the Chief, are you?"
Lin Hai asked half-jokingly.
"I'm not the Chief, nor do I have the capacity to be one."
"I'm just a Vice Chief, you can call Xia Xiaopao."
Upon hearing the person on the phone introduce himself, Lin Hai was stunned.
"Sh*t!"
Xia Xiaopao?
The na was thunderously familiar to Lin Hai to an extre.
A first-class expert ensuring Zhongnanhe's safety, disciple of Yanhuang Soul's Heavenly Dragon—Heavenly Dragon Grand Lama.
Additionally, the Vice Chief of the Inner Palace was Xia Xiaopao.
This person held significant authority; they could mobilize internal experts at will, and their intelligence capabilities were nearly on par with Yanhuang Soul.
One could say that wherever Xia Xiaopao revealed his identity in Huaxia, the local CEOs would flock to flatter him.
"How... how could you have my phone number?"
Lin Hai didn't know how to express his current feelings.
If there was anyone he least wanted to et, Xia Xiaopao could be one of them.
Because... the father of Xia Chuqing and Xia Chuxin was exactly Xia Xiaopao.
"It's quite simple, I'm the Vice Chief of the Inner Palace; finding your number was easy. Kid, I'm sending soone to pick you up now. Ghost Master is here with for tea, and we happened to chat about you, so I decided to call you."
Xia Xiaopao explained with a smile.
"Well, I have a bit of a stomach upset today, lots on my plate; I'll bring gifts next ti to visit you." Lin Hai quickly declined.
"What? You don't dare et half a father-in-law?" Xia Xiaopao's voice pretended to be angry.
Lin Hai wiped the sweat from his forehead. Damn, does it have to be this direct?
Fortunately, the CEO was not around; otherwise, hearing this would certainly lead to interrogation about all his little secrets.
"eting you isn't an impulsive decision; there are so matters I need to discuss with you." Xia Xiaopao said seriously again.
"What matters? It wouldn't be about Chuxin, would it? At the ti, I only peeked for a few monts; I definitely didn't take advantage of your daughter in any way."
The phone call's other end was filled with Xia Xiaopao's clearly embarrassed coughs.
"Kid, do you know the top ten dark families of Western Europe?"
Xia Xiaopao decided to cut to the chase with Lin Hai.
"Yes, those would be family-style Black Society in Huaxia, but they're impressive, having gained international prominence." Lin Hai replied.
"I knew you weren't simple, kid. Recently, there's been word from outside that you're speculated to be the King of rcenaries L."
"What the hell? If I were King of rcenaries L, would I need to work as a lowly security guard? I'd be living it up with spa days, money, won, luxury cars—everything exciting." Lin Hai exaggerated.
"Cut the nonsense! One of the top ten dark families of Western Europe has set their sights on you," Xia Xiaopao said.
Lin Hai paused in shock.
During his ti in the Western world, he hadn't offended any of those dark families, and now here in Huaxia, he shouldn't have any ties to Western Europe.
"According to my intelligence, it seems the Gammino Family is preparing the highest level of elimination action against you." Xia Xiaopao revealed further.
Gammino?
Upon hearing that family's na, the first person that ca to Lin Hai's mind was Mr. Sao, known for being "so sexy."
"What? Do you really have a grudge with Gammino?" Xia Xiaopao, sensing Lin Hai's pause, couldn't help but ask.
"There's a bit of a grudge," Lin Hai answered evasively.
"So, are you interested in coming to chat in the Inner Palace now?" Xia Xiaopao felt quite pleased with himself, thinking this information would ensure Lin Hai's compliance in eting him.
"Uh, sure, half father-in-law, I'll take a taxi over right away."
Pfft——
Xia Xiaopao's stern face twitched several tis upon hearing the words "half father-in-law."
