"Third Young Master Chen? Think you're all that, huh? Pfft, try not to run away."
The other party showed no signs of anger at Lin Hai's provocation, only leaving with his people, seemingly knowing that they were no match against Lin Hai.
"This young man does have some temperament; knowing he can't win and chooses to retreat, he's got the makings of a chief."
Lin Hai frowned, from the tone of his speech, it seemed the Chen Family was quite formidable, and did not believe such a temperament would belong to someone arrogant and overbearing.
"Lin Hai, we've got trouble here," Ouyang Xiaoya's eyes filled with worry.
"Huh? CEO, is the Chen Family really that powerful?"
"Very powerful, on par with the Su Family."
"Even their potential might be stronger than the Su Family's, it's just some issues have kept them low-key in Huadu."
After hearing the CEO's words, Lin Hai was speechless, sh*t, just buying a coffee, saving someone, and he bumps into tough nuts.
"That person just claimed to be Third Young Master Chen, should be the third brother of the Chen Family, currently in charge."
"Judging by his age, it might be Chen Yingming."
Lin Hai wondered, "How do you know this so well, CEO?"
"I've had a meal with their eldest brother, Chen Yaolong."
After finishing, she glanced at Lin Hai and added, "Don't overthink it, it was just business cooperation, but Chen Yaolong did indirectly express his liking for me."
After finishing, Ouyang Xiaoya wanted to see Lin Hai's reaction, to see if he would get jealous.
Lin Hai quickly caught on to the CEO's train of thought, chuckled and replied, "So what if he likes you? You are my type, no one can take you from me."
"Is that so? What if I'm tempted and leave with someone else?" Ouyang Xiaoya challenged.
Lin Hai touched his nose and leaned close to her ear, whispering softly, "CEO, don't forget what you said when you were under the influence of the 'Divine Desire' potion, and even gave me a kiss, I have full confidence in our relationship."
"You beast, don't bring up that incident," she protested.
"Have you forgotten? Need me to describe every little detail?"
"Besides, we are old husbands and wives, why would I fear competing with Chen Yaolong?"
After Lin Hai finished, a confident look appeared on his face which reassured Ouyang Xiaoya, naturally because of his trust in their feelings and each other but also made her feel stifled.
Women, generally, will have such a mentality; they want to lean on a man's shoulder but not entirely be dominated by him.
Especially capable women like Ouyang Xiaoya, who are not willing to be tightly controlled by men, it makes them feel more like a love puppet.
Men also encounter such psychological conditions in love.
"CEO, I really understand how you feel now."
"In love, especially during the first love in college, men and women often have no experience dealing with emotions, and after being together for a while, they feel that their constraints are too strong, losing the initial sweetness of feelings, a small matter can trigger disputes."
"Eventually, some harbor grievances they can't let go, continually finding faults with each other."
"Even if romantic and touching moments temporarily resolve the conflicts, they are likely to flare up again, leading to breaking up and making up repeatedly; on the path of love suddenly having a realization, reconciling, elevating emotions, stepping towards a successful marriage, but most end up as strangers, goodbye, never seeing each other again."
Lin Hai said this not aimlessly, but to make things clear to the CEO and prepare her mentally in advance.
After all, although she is a businesswoman and an Iceberg CEO, she is quite naive when it comes to emotions.
Even the smartest person, without experience, can only grope their way forward.
But Beast Lin is different; he's well-experienced in this area.
"Have you ever thought about the main reason, CEO? It's because men and women don't want to be completely controlled by the other. After a breakup, you realize that no one was fully in control, and everyone is still free. It was just a psychological effect."
After hearing Lin Hai's words, Ouyang Xiaoya was a bit shocked.
"I didn't see that coming, now you're a relationship expert."
Lin Hai was quite pleased with the CEO's surprised expression.
Seeing the CEO surprised always gave him a strange sense of satisfaction.
Perhaps the motivation for a man ultimately lies in showing off to a woman, either directly or subtly.
There's a saying isn't there, men conquer the world, and women conquer men through emotions.
"I think you should consider a side job."
"What, CEO, what do you take me for? Although I'm somewhat virile, I am a decent man after all. Are you suggesting I become a gigolo?"
Ouyang Xiaoya was dumbfounded. Does having a side job mean becoming a gigolo? Isn't this thought even more sleazy than those home-bound nerds who keep cursing all day?
She was infuriated, especially since Huadu was currently popular with midnight emotion broadcast, and she felt that Beast Lin could be promoted in many areas with very pure intentions!
A woman's cunning mind made her want to strike back: "Hmph, dead beast, you as a gigolo? Your business would probably be dead on arrival."
Lin Hai felt challenged, pounding his robust chest. So robust, wouldn't those socialites be desperate with desire, fighting to pick his service?
Back in Europe, when he fought over a dozen assassins and bodyguards at a dinner, those socialites' eyes shone brighter than a seven-tier chandelier, almost wishing to team up and take him down.
"CEO, with my assets, if I were a gigolo, it wouldn't take many days before I become the Duck King!"
"Pfft!" Ouyang Xiaoya almost burst out laughing.
Looking at Lin Hai's ordinary face, she really couldn't figure out where his confidence came from.
Aren't those lonely women nowadays into pretty young men? Young, tender, cute Shota type, right?
Actually, she didn't know that although young women might like a Shota, as they reach their thirties and forties, most of them change their tastes.
Someone like Lin Hai appearing in a gigolo store would definitely become incredibly popular.
The tastes between men and women do change with age.
Like initially, men look at women's faces, then it progresses to the body, bizarrely shifting to asses and legs, and later back to faces again.
Besides, young men occasionally develop a taste for mature women.
"Yo, Lin Hai, it seems I've underestimated you all this time, no wonder you're not focused on work; you aspire to be the Duck King."
"I know a few businesswomen, in their thirties and forties, in their prime age. Should I introduce some business to you? To help you become the Huadu Duck King sooner?" Ouyang Xiaoya said unhappily.
"Huadu Duck King? Sh*t!"
