At thirty, I started my comeback from the intelligence system.

Just as Lai Yongkang's knife was about to pierce Lin Xiaoxiao's face—

"Lai Yongkang!"

A loud, energetic shout came from the side and behind.

Lai Yongkang subconsciously turned his head to look.

A figure swiftly rushed out from behind the fire escape door, not to pounce on him, but to kick the mobile ambulance in front of him!

"Clang!"

The heavy nursing cart was kicked sideways and slammed hard into Lai Yongkang's leg!

"Ouch!" Lai Yongkang was caught off guard and stumbled from the impact, falling to the side and almost dropping the knife from his hand.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Chen Geng stepped forward, his target Lai Yongkang's wrist holding the knife!

He doesn't have much fighting skill, but he still has the strength and speed of an adult man.

Chen Geng grabbed Lai Yongkang's wrist holding the knife with his left hand and twisted it outwards. He then clenched his right fist and stabbed hard into the nerve-rich area under Lai's armpit!

"Ugh!" Lai Yongkang felt a sharp pain under his armpit, and his entire arm instantly went numb and lost strength.

Chen Geng seized the opportunity and twisted and pulled hard!

"Clatter!"

The fruit knife fell to the ground.

Chen Geng immediately kicked the knife away, and at the same time used both hands to forcefully twist Lai Yongkang's arms behind his back, who was still struggling and howling, and pressed him firmly onto the nursing cart.

The whole process took only a dozen seconds; it was fast, accurate, and ruthless, relying entirely on surprise and a fierce determination.

It wasn't until then that the hospital security guards and several male doctors who had rushed over after hearing the news arrived, panting heavily.

"Get him under control! Call the police!" an older doctor immediately ordered.

The security guards rushed forward, took Lai Yongkang from Chen Geng, and tied him up tightly with restraints. Lai Yongkang was still struggling and cursing, but it was too late.

The crisis is over.

The corridor was noisy, and more and more people were gathering around. Lin Xiaoxiao's legs went weak, and she barely managed to stand by holding onto the medicine cabinet. She looked at Lai Yongkang being escorted away by security guards, still in shock, and then at Chen Geng, who was standing to the side, breathing slightly. Her eyes were extremely complicated, filled with lingering fear, disbelief, and an overwhelming sense of shame and gratitude.

Just now... if it weren't for this person...

She opened her mouth, as if to say something, but found her throat dry.

Chen Geng rubbed his slightly sore wrist; he had pulled it because he had moved too violently.

He glanced at Lin Xiaoxiao to make sure she was alright, then glanced at the fruit knife that had been kicked aside on the ground. Without saying anything, he turned and left, his figure quickly disappearing behind the fire escape door.

"Wait! Sir! May I ask your name?"

Lin Xiaoxiao finally found her voice and hurriedly took two steps to call out.

But the fire escape door was already closed, and only the sound of footsteps quickly faded into the distance.

Lin Xiaoxiao leaned against the door, her heart still pounding. The young nurse beside her asked, her voice trembling with tears, "Xiaoxiao, are you alright? You scared me to death… Who was that person? He seemed to… have come back specifically to save you?"

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't answer. She walked back to the nurses' station, her gaze falling on the computer screen. She remembered that Chen Geng had been admitted to the hospital early this morning, and his registration information was in the system.

She sat back down, her fingers trembling slightly as she moved the mouse and opened the inpatient information query interface.

……

Chen Geng ran out of the hospital building in one breath and got back into the taxi that was still waiting.

"Driver, go to the nearest Galaxy Securities branch, quick."

The car started and merged into the traffic. Chen Geng leaned back in his seat and let out a long breath. His wrist still ached a little, but he felt inexplicably relieved.

He checked the time; it was almost eleven. He needed to hurry.

As for that nurse, Lin Xiaoxiao… he shook his head. They were just strangers who met by chance; they probably wouldn't have any further contact. Hopefully, this incident would truly make her more vigilant.

He closed his eyes and began to plan his next move. Su Qingqing's 200,000, Zhang Jiaxiao's 290,000, plus the tens of thousands he could withdraw from his credit card, meant he had roughly enough capital. Next, he would test this intelligence system to see what kind of future it could bring him.

Thinking of this, his heart, which had grown cold from marital betrayal and a broken family, finally felt a renewed burning hope.

At the same time, in the marketing director's office of Hanfeng Group Real Estate Company.

Su Qingqing knocked on the door, and a greasy middle-aged man's voice came from inside: "Come in."

Su Qingqing pushed open the door and entered, her face now displaying a pitiful, tearful expression.

All those men before were unreliable; several of them blocked her after giving her money.

If she wants to get revenge on Chen Geng now, she needs to find a powerful backer.

Today, she specially wore a chiffon blouse with a slightly low neckline, paired with a pencil skirt, which perfectly accentuated her figure.

Behind the desk sat a middle-aged man with a bloated belly and thinning hair, who was her immediate boss, marketing director Zhou Peng.

When Zhou Peng's small eyes, squeezed into slits by his fat, swept over Su Qingqing, he made no attempt to hide his greed.

Su Qingqing used to look down on men like this, but now she can only put up with it for the time being.

"President Zhou..." Su Qingqing cried before she could speak, her voice choked with sobs, "You really have to help me this time, I... I really have no other choice."

"Oh dear, Qingqing, what's wrong? Who bullied you? Sit down and tell me." Zhou Peng pointed to the chair opposite him, leaned forward slightly, and said with "concern."

Su Qingqing sat down and, sobbing, recounted how Chen Geng had "extorted" 200,000 yuan from her and forced her to divorce him, embellishing the story. Of course, she omitted the crucial details of her infidelity and pregnancy, portraying herself as a pitiful woman who had been ruthlessly abandoned by her incompetent husband and blackmailed.

"Mr. Zhou, I've given him all my money, and now I'm having trouble even eating... He's also threatened to make my story public, which would ruin my life!"

Su Qingqing sobbed, her shoulders shaking. "You have so many connections and resources, please think of a way to teach that heartless Chen Geng a lesson! Ideally... ideally, you should make him return double the money he's taken!"

As Zhou Peng listened, a thoughtful look appeared on his chubby face, while his small eyes darted back and forth between Su Qingqing's chest and face.

He had been eyeing this subordinate for a long time. She was beautiful, knew how to dress, and most importantly, knew how to use her advantages to keep him hanging on, making him itch with desire but never succeeding. Now, it seemed like his chance had come.

"This Chen Geng... is he from the GG company in the group?" Zhou Peng touched his double chin.

"Yes, just a small-scale planner," Su Qingqing replied hastily.

"GG ​​Company... is under the brand department, and it's not part of our real estate division, so it's a bit troublesome to interfere directly."

Zhou Peng pretended to ponder, but his mind was racing with calculations.

If he were to take action himself, at most he could use his connections to make things difficult for Chen Geng, or hire someone to intimidate him; the effect would be limited, and going against someone from another department for Su Qingqing would be a losing proposition. However…
