After Mad Dragon was released from prison, I shocked the world!

Lin Li was enraged by Lei Xiangqing's repeated "no" and "coward" remarks, so he slapped her pert buttocks hard.

Snapped!

"what!"

Lei Xiangqing exclaimed, feeling both ashamed and excited.

"You'll find out later whether I'm a man or not."

Lin Li said fiercely, rubbing the reddened spot on his palm a few more times, "If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll spank you until your butt is raw!"

"Go ahead and hit me! If you've got the guts, then really do it to me!"

Lei Xiangqing glared at him defiantly, wrapped her legs around his waist, and said arrogantly, "All talk and no action is useless! If you're not brave enough, then get out of my way!"

Lin Li looked at the reckless vixen beneath him, feeling a mixture of love and hate.

He took a few deep breaths, forcibly suppressing his desire, and said expressionlessly, "Go to sleep."

Lin Li rolled over with Lei Xiangqing in his arms, and the two lay on their sides. He pulled a blanket over them, looking like he had made up his mind.

Lei Xiangqing was stunned; she simply couldn't believe that Lin Li had really fallen asleep like that.

I'm already like this!

I've already gone to such lengths to make love to you!

That bastard actually... actually went to sleep?!

Lei Xiangqing bit her lip, feeling humiliated, and her eyes reddened. When had she ever suffered such humiliation since she was a child?

"Lin Li! You bastard!"

She sat up abruptly and slapped Lin Li across the face.

Snapped!

The slap wasn't hard; it was more about shame and indignation.

"Useless trash! You're a good-for-nothing! You won't even eat meat delivered to your door! You deserve to be a bachelor your whole life!"

After finishing her rant, Lei Xiangqing grabbed a lace bra from the sofa, haphazardly put it on, and stormed into the bedroom, slamming the door shut.

Lin Li covered the half of his face that had been slapped and gave a helpless, bitter laugh.

"What kind of mess is this...?"

He rolled over, looked at the ceiling, felt the pent-up heat in his body, and the burning sensation on his face. He couldn't help but relive the blissful feeling from just now.

"What a vixen."

Lin Li cursed under his breath, then gritted his teeth, thinking of Lei Xiangqing's words, and said, "Next time... next time I'll definitely find a place with good soundproofing, so you'll know what a real man is."

……

Good morning.

Lin Li watched as Lei Xiangqing walked out of the room in her pajamas, touched his nose, and greeted her somewhat awkwardly.

"snort."

Lei Xiangqing snorted coldly, not even glancing at him, and turned to go into the bathroom, slamming the door shut.

Lin Li: "..."

This woman has quite a temper.

Bai Nian'an also came out of the room. She looked at the bathroom door, then at Lin Li, who looked helpless, and suddenly smiled strangely.

"Good morning, Master."

"morning."

Lin Li felt inexplicably guilty, and for some reason, asked, "Did you sleep well last night?"

"fine."

Bai Nian'an gave Lin Li a meaningful look and said, "It's just that I thought I heard mosquitoes buzzing in the middle of the night, it was quite noisy."

Damn it!

I knew it wasn't safe to cause trouble in the living room, thankfully I held back last night!

Lin Li blushed, pretended not to understand, and got up to tidy up the blanket on the sofa.

A moment later, the door to the master bedroom opened as well.

Lin Yuehua helped Su Qian out. Su Qian's complexion had returned to normal, but she still looked a little weak.

When she saw Lin Li, her eyes darted away, clearly still having a vague memory of what happened yesterday afternoon, but not quite remembering the details.

"Lin Li..."

"How are you feeling?"

Lin Li gestured for Su Qian to sit down and took her pulse: "The poison is gone. You need to rest for the next couple of days and avoid spicy and stimulating foods."

"I'm fine now."

Su Qian felt a warmth in her heart, but still shook her head: "I have to go to the company."

"To the company?"

Lin Yuehua frowned and advised, "Qianqian, you're not fully recovered yet, take a day off."

"no."

Thinking of those three bastards from yesterday, Su Qian felt only anger and said in a deep voice, "Such a big thing happened yesterday, the company must be talking about it right now."

"If I don't go and oversee things, who knows what kind of chaos will ensue."

Seeing Su Qian's stubborn expression, Lin Li knew he couldn't persuade her, so he could only say, "Okay, I'll take you there."

"Um."

Su Qian nodded obediently. After what happened yesterday, she trusted Lin Li even more.

After breakfast, Lin Yuehua took Lei Xiangqing to continue handling the registration of the new company and the asset divestiture of Zhiyuan Group.

Although Lei Xiangqing was still angry with Lin Li, she didn't slack off when it came to important matters. Before leaving, she glared at Lin Li and mouthed "useless" before pulling Lin Yuehua away.

Lin Li shook his head with a wry smile and went to Chujian Culture with Su Qian.

The employees in the company, who had been whispering about yesterday's events, immediately fell silent upon seeing the two of them.

The two walked all the way to the chairman's office on the top floor.

Just as I sat down, a middle-aged man with graying hair rushed in, crying his eyes out.

"Chairman Su! Chairman Su! I'm so sorry!"

This man is Wei Xiang, the manager of the company's administration department, and also Wei Dan's maternal uncle.

"Chairman Su, I've come to apologize!"

When Wei Xiang saw Lin Li, he trembled with fear, clearly having already heard about Wei Dan's fate yesterday.

Without saying a word, he knelt down before Su Qian, kowtowing repeatedly: "That beast Wei Dan... that beast actually did such a heinous thing! I... I really didn't know!"

"I almost fainted from anger when I heard about this yesterday! How could I have such a despicable nephew!"

He cried as if his own father had died, "Chairman Su, I'll accept any punishment you want! I was blind to let him come to the company!"

Su Qian looked at Wei Xiang kneeling on the ground, her emotions somewhat complicated.

Wei Xiang is a veteran of the company, having worked there since her father's generation. She is also considered a dedicated worker.

"Manager Wei, please stand up and speak first."

Su Qian sighed and gestured for Lin Li to step aside.

"I won't get up! I'm guilty!"

Wei Xiang ignored Su Qian's words completely and continued wailing, "I'm so sorry to the former chairman, I've let down Chairman Su's trust!"

Lin Li watched coldly for a while and thought it was a real shame that this acting skill wasn't worthy of an Oscar.

"Manager Wei."

He suddenly spoke up, asking, "You said you don't know anything about Wei Dan?"

Wei Xiang stiffened, his eyes flickering slightly: "Yes...yes! If I had known that beast had such thoughts, I would have broken his legs long ago!"

"Yeah?"

Lin Li looked at Wei Xiang and told him the information he had received: "You personally recruited Wei Dan into the company, and you also promoted her to be by Chairman Su's side."

"He bullies others in the company, accepts kickbacks, and has a terrible reputation. Everyone in the company knows this. How could you not know?"
