Chapter 1071 - 1138: Donglong-Wanqing and Ximen-Xiaoxiao
Chapter 1071 - 1138: Donglong-Wanqing and Ximen-Xiaoxiao
Amidst a frantic scream.Lin Hai almost used the double combo of Kirin Arm and single dog's hand speed to swiftly grab his "important item" while everyone was not paying attention.
Holding his breath, he struggled underwater for quite some time before finally poking his head above the water and letting out a big breath.
Suddenly, he felt a gaze subtly focusing from above.
It was his sister-in-law looking at him with a mischievous smile.
"She must have spotted it earlier, what a trap!"
Lin Hai felt he was about to hurt himself internally from holding his breath.
"Beast Lin, are you doing this on purpose?" Ouyang Xiaoya scolded him with a glare.
"I just wanted to show some fancy diving tricks." Lin Hai blinked his eyes with grievance.
Suddenly, the CEO wife's expression changed and she cautiously backed away from Lin Hai, maintaining a safe distance from him.
"Xiaoya, what's going on?" Queen Qi asked her, sensing something was off.
Ouyang Xiaoya thought for a moment, feeling the need to alert her friends, so she put on a mysterious look: "Weiwei, swim closer, I'll tell you quietly."
Women are creatures with an extremely strong curiosity.
Including Ruoshuang and other ladies who were already in the water, they all surrounded Ouyang Xiaoya.
"Here's the deal, that Beast watched a news report today..." Ouyang Xiaoya repeated what Lin Hai boasted about "skydiving in the sea" earlier that morning to the ladies.
Afterwards, the CEO added: "So everyone better stay away from the Beast to prevent him from really doing something in the pool..."
The ladies all nodded, their gazes towards Lin Hai now filled with apprehension and fear.
Splish splash—
The ladies immediately swam away, keeping a massive safe distance from Lin Hai.
In the water, Lin Hai was puzzled, wondering why everyone treated him like the plague.
Feeling baffled, his eyes showed confusion, completely unaware that he had been seriously trashed by his wife's harmless prank.
"Damn, got trapped real good, truly unhappy."
Lin Hai pinched his briefs underwater, afraid the elastic might fail and cause them to slip off, making it impossible to climb ashore, which would be truly miserable.
"Sir, my lady wants to see you."
Suddenly, a voice from the poolside caught Lin Hai's attention.
Lin Hai looked over, discovering a muscular man wearing only swim trunks, staring at him seriously.
With such muscles, if he were a fitness coach, he'd definitely attract a flock of Yanjing's noblewomen.
Judging by his appearance, he seemed to be a bodyguard.
"Your lady? I don't seem to know her, right?" Lin Hai asked puzzled.
Best to avoid flirting with women when hanging out with ladies; this rule Lin Hai understood very well.
"My lady said she met you in the elevator earlier."
Elevator?
Lin Hai immediately recalled the stunningly beautiful woman who had just played him a trick.
"Oh? Why does your lady want to see me?" Lin Hai smiled and asked.
"Hmph, if my lady wants to see you, it's your lucky day. Why ask so many questions?" The bodyguard seemed annoyed.
"Wow, swimming with a bodyguard, your lady has quite the style."
Since she wanted to see him, he might as well go.
Lin Hai grabbed his briefs and swam to the pool edge.
Then, with great effort, he clutched his briefs to ensure they weren't pulled off when he climbed ashore, amidst the bodyguard's disdainful gaze.
"Hehe, single-handed climb ashore, good arm training." Lin Hai chuckled awkwardly.
The bodyguard didn't bother glancing at Lin Hai and led the way.
Gotta admit, the swimming pool the CEO's wife chose was really luxurious, considered upper-middle class in Yanjing.
The second floor was specifically for guests to rest between swims, with dedicated staff taking care of guests, providing coffee, drinks, and exquisite food.
"Miss, he's here."
Lin Hai curiously looked over, finding it was indeed the stunning woman from the elevator, and beside her was another attractive girl in swimwear.
The bodyguard finished speaking and stood behind the stunning elevator beauty.
At this moment, not only Lin Hai was sizing her up, but also her bodyguard, the stunning beauty, and the girl beside her were scrutinizing Lin Hai.
Upon seeing Lin Hai's red briefs, the three of them showed slight disgust.
However, aside from those red briefs, Lin Hai's entire being deeply captivated them.
The stunning elevator beauty revealed a shocked look.
The bodyguard's pupils suddenly contracted.
The girl beside, too, couldn't conceal her surprise, jaws slack.
Not for any other reason, but because Lin Hai's whole body, from head to toe, was covered with countless grotesque scars.
These scars had healed long ago but couldn't erase the marks left by past years, instead giving a sense of worldly wisdom and mysterious past.
A normal person shouldn't have so many scars.
Even those so-called underworld figures shouldn't have so many scars.
Not even soldiers should have so many scars.
Especially at the heart, the carotid artery in the neck, the gap between the lower abdomen rib, and several of the most critical blood vessels, all had countless scars.
Judging by the raised scars, he had clearly suffered severe injuries.
"Xiaoxiao, is this the acquaintance you mentioned?" The girl asked, surprised, looking complexly at her girl companion beside her.
Lin Hai then realized he knew the girl beside the stunning elevator woman.
It was none other than the flight attendant from when he came to Yanjing, not Ximen Chui, but Xiaoxiao.
"Mr. Lin, do you remember me?" Ximen Xiaoxiao asked with a complicated gaze, pausing before adding: "Let me introduce, this is my good friend and confidant, Shangguan Wanqing, though she also goes by another name, called Donglong Wanqing in the worldly society."
Lin Hai was puzzled, Donglong Wanqing? This name was rather imposing, especially for a girl, quite unconventional indeed.
"So, Wanqing mentioned encountering a weirdo in the elevator just now... uh, then I was curious and took a look, unexpectedly finding it was you, so I told Wanqing about your story." Ximen Xiaoxiao struggled to explain.
Lin Hai scratched his head, revealing a big smile, and asked with interest: "Do you know my past?"
Ximen Xiaoxiao shook her head: "I don't know, but I saw Mr. Lin dismiss Young Master Wolf Cao Ziqing in a café and know your friend is the popular Little Diva Goddess Zi, and even seems Yanjing's richest young man's relationship with you is deep."
These things were apparent.
However, Lin Hai wasn't the type to act weak when seeing beautiful women.
On the contrary, her words clearly had an agenda to find him.
"Let's be straightforward, Miss Ximen, what's the reason you're looking for me?"
Lin Hai asked.
Donglong Wanqing frowned: "Seems Xiaoxiao's words are true?"
"Whether true or not doesn't matter, what's the reason you suddenly sought me out?" Lin Hai asked evasively.
"If Xiaoxiao's words are true, then..."
Dragging out her tone, Donglong Wanqing suddenly cast a seductive glance, charmingly saying: "Mr. Lin, do you find me attractive? Is my body on the bed enticing enough for you?"
