PS: Brothers and sisters, just nine updates for today, I owe you all one more, which I will make up tomorrow.
From 8 AM, I have been writing the chapter outlines and main text, nonstop until now, without even taking a break for dinner. Chuxin is truly exhausted, having given it my all, I can't write anymore, my apologies to everyone. The climax is coming, and it will get more and more thrilling.
Composed and wise, with the commanding presence and measured steps of a beautiful, high-ranking CEO, Ouyang Xiaoya is particularly eye-catching at this moment.
Following her, Police Chief Xiao Selang, Zhang Yang's father—Vice Mayor Zhang, along with the dark-faced Zhang Shenxu, a relaxed Li Changfeng, and Queen Qi, who has just returned from handling a case out of town and is filled with concern, as well as the ingratiating Director Zhang of the detention center, the exceedingly respectful Li Wannian, and others, are accompanying her.
At this moment, Ouyang Xiaoya is extremely assertive. Having received the agreement to retract the complaint, she is determined to have Lin Hai released, undeterred by anyone who might want to interfere, capable of using her own power to make them back down.
"It's just ahead, after turning the corner, you'll arrive at the cell where Mr. Lin is held," Director Zhang is trembling with fear at this point, extremely curious about Lin Hai, the mysterious person secretly dispatched by the higher-ups, Mr. Long, who even stooped to accompany him in the cell. This has already shocked him deeply, now with Ouyang Xiaoya, Li Changfeng, Director Xiao, Vice Mayor Zhang, and numerous other officials accompanying them, Director Zhang is even more astonished, thankful that he didn't give Lin Hai any trouble, otherwise, he would not know how he might have ended up.
In the cell, Long Si feels that his trip this time has been in vain—the likelihood of Lin Hai being King Yan is getting smaller and smaller.
Lin Hai's behavior over the past few days has deeply disappointed him; in his eyes, even if King Yan were good at disguising, he couldn't possibly behave .
Long Si decides to observe for one last day, and if there's still no discovery, he will give up the continuous observation of Lin Hai.
At that moment, the door to the cell was opened.
Ouyang Xiaoya stands in front of the prison cell, glancing in and seeing Lin Hai.
At this moment, Lin Hai is comfortably lying on the bed, holding a cigarette in one hand and tea in the other, with two prisoners respectfully massaging his legs, and another carefully splitting grapes and oranges to feed him.
Heaven knows where the detention center got these fruits from, but Lin Hai is truly enjoying himself, showing no realization of being in prison.
"Great, these days are just too great."
"Every day with that tigress, it's always so stifling; who knew prison could actually be this great."
Lin Hai mumbles unclearly with grapes in his mouth.
Ouyang Xiaoya hurried over, originally worried, fearing that Lin Hai might be bullied in the cell, hearing that some prisoners in the cell were extremely twisted, often bullying newcomers.
The Ice Queen CEO certainly wouldn't want her fiancé to be bullied by other men.
In these days, Ouyang Xiaoya has been trying her best in every possible way.
Even she feels very guilty, thinking that this time it was again indirectly caused by her that Lin Hai suffered in prison.
But at this moment, hearing the muffled words from Lin Hai's mouth, Ouyang Xiaoya's initial worries and guilt instantly dissipate, replaced by a gnashing rage.
"Who are you calling a tigress?" Ouyang Xiaoya coldly asked.
"Of course, it's our CEO tigress," Lin Hai blurted out subconsciously. After saying that, he looked up and saw Ouyang Xiaoya's frost-covered pretty face.
Lin Hai was immediately so frightened that he choked on the grape in his mouth.
"What's up with the boss?"
"Quick, give him a back-pat, the boss is choking on a grape." The prisoner brothers hurriedly paled; they were tormented by Lin Hai these past few days and had now become extremely obedient.
A bunch of prisoners clumsily pounded Lin Hai's back, and after much effort and Lin Hai's face almost turning purple, they finally got the grape down.
Lin Hai let out a breath and weakly looked toward the side where the CEO, already on the verge of a volcanic eruption, had turned iron-blue.
"CEO, you, why are you here?" Lin Hai widened his eyes in surprise, feeling immensely guilty.
Just now, he carelessly blurted out the truth. He probably would have an easier time kneeling on ants at home than on nails.
Ouyang Xiaoya clenched her fists tightly.
Tigress, this guy actually called her a tigress!
Such a beautiful woman, and yet no good words come out of his mouth.
She feeds him, clothes him, and last time he nearly killed a foreigner, she had to exhaust all her wits to smooth things over. He got jailed, and she had to come in person, preparing to bail him out.
And now, she hears him say being in prison is enjoyable, and there are even fruits around!
In the past few days, she had been so busy dealing with his matters she couldn't even spare a moment to drink water, while this guy was having the time of his life in prison, with people serving him tea and water, massaging and patting his legs, looking totally like he was on a leisurely holiday.
The most infuriating part was his innocent look right now, making Ouyang Xiaoya really want to step on his face with a high heel.
The aloof aura of the ice queen CEO exploded in an instant, her entire persona with arms crossed, staring intensely at Lin Hai as if she wanted to flay him alive and swallow him whole.
Lin Hai awkwardly touched the back of his head, realizing he had angered the CEO again.
"CEO, you finally came, I've had a tough time here," Lin Hai hurriedly complained.
"This guy is so shameless, eating fruits, drinking tea, smoking luxury cigarettes, having people fawn over him, and still he turns around and complains, looking so pitiful. If those uninformed saw him, they might actually believe him," thought Ouyang Xiaoya, her hand clenching, making a cracking sound.
"Is it fun to be in prison?" Ouyang Xiaoya snorted coldly.
"Not fun, it's better being by your side as a personal bodyguard," Lin Hai blinked rapidly, now was the time to brown-nose and make the CEO happy.
Long Si looked at this group curiously, the information was indeed correct; Lin Hai's fiancée seems to be the famous ice queen beauty CEO of Huadu—Ouyang Xiaoya, and their relationship indeed seems quite complicated.
"CEO, are you going to let me out? That's great, I was hoping for stars and moon, just waiting for you to come, and indeed you didn't let me down," Lin Hai hurriedly said again, jumping off the bed, and the inmates hurriedly brought his shoes over.
Ouyang Xiaoya glared at Lin Hai and coldly said, "Beast Lin, I think you should be locked up for another ten or eight days."
After saying that, she turned her head toward Xiao Selang, her tone slightly eased, and said, "Director Xiao, can we lock him up for another ten or eight days?"
Director Xiao thought for a moment; seeing the ice queen CEO speak up, he naturally couldn't offend her and diplomatically answered, "The release procedures are still being processed; it might indeed take a few days."
"What? No, CEO, please no!" Lin Hai was dumbfounded, he had indeed shown off too much this time.
