The Divine Doctor Captures a Beauty [Complete] - 5

Chapter 81 The Four Giants

Watching Lin Yupeng and Xiaoru enter the elevator and go downstairs, Wei Qifeng's face grew increasingly ugly. A surge of anger rose within him; he spat on the ground and then slammed his fist against the elevator door! Inside

the elevator, Lin Yupeng cursed inwardly, "Pah! Wei Qifeng, don't you even know your own worth? You look like a flour jar come to life, and you think you can woo Xiaoru? What a pipe dream!"

He and Xiaoru arrived downstairs, got into Yang Yue's Mercedes, and drove straight to the Meidu Hotel.

Meidu was a four-star hotel under the Tianqiong Group, exclusively for entertaining the group's senior leaders and friends from all walks of life. The first two floors were open to the public, while the third floor and above were for internal use only.

Lin Yupeng had been there once before, attending the celebration party for the "Tianqiong Cup Medical Paper Competition," and was deeply impressed by the luxurious decor and the erotic entertainment.

After getting out of the car, Yang Yue led Lin Yupeng and Xiao Ru directly to the VIP lounge on the third floor of the Meidu Hotel. The decor here was a step up from the first and second floors, based on the style of an ancient Roman palace with added modern elements, such as gilded carvings and colorful stone walls, creating a magnificent yet refreshing atmosphere.

There were six people in the VIP lounge. Three of them sat at an oval camphor wood table in the center, while the other three stood behind them like bodyguards.

Yang Yue led Lin Yupeng to the person in the center and said respectfully, "President Zhang, this is the newly appointed Product Development Manager, Lin Yupeng!" President Zhang

was very tall, about 1.9 meters, and around 40 years old. He had a fair complexion, no beard, and a pair of bright, clear eyes that shone with a sharp light. Although he had a refined air about him, he exuded an air of domineering arrogance that made him someone not to be underestimated.

No wonder he's the president of Tianqiong Group, a high-ranking leader second only to the chairman; his aura is indeed imposing. Lin Yupeng had seen this man many times in newspapers and on television. His full name is Zhang Yueran, and he has been the president of Tianqiong Group for five years.

He always represents the chairman at various occasions, practically a symbol of the highest power in Tianqiong Group. As for Chairman Jin, he seems very mysterious both internally and externally; very few people have actually seen him, and many outsiders even believe that Zhang Yueran is both the chairman and president of Tianqiong Group.

"Hello, Mr. Zhang! Please take care of me in the future!" Lin Yupeng smiled slightly and politely extended his right hand.

Zhang Yueran remained expressionless and silent, glancing at Lin Yupeng, leaning forward slightly, and merely grasped Lin Yupeng's three protruding fingers before lowering his hand.

Just as Lin Yupeng shook hands with Zhang Yueran, he suddenly felt an invisible pressure emanating from beside him. This aura didn't come from Zhang Yueran, but from someone behind him. He couldn't help but glance at the person, and his heart immediately tightened!

Behind Zhang Yueran stood a figure as still as a javelin, completely unmoved, like a living stone monument. His face was as cold as iron, his expression stern and indifferent.

He was about the same height as Zhang Yueran, but his age was indiscernible. He was burly, with a dark complexion, thick, bushy eyebrows, and a pair of bright, clear eyes that flashed with a chilling light, making it impossible to look him directly in the eye.

Although he had deliberately concealed his sharpness, Lin Yupeng could still clearly feel the oppressive killing intent and arrogance emanating from him, sending a chill down his spine!

This person was definitely Zhang Yueran's bodyguard, and he was undoubtedly a man of unparalleled strength. Judging from his arrogant and domineering aura, he was definitely a ruthless character.

Yang Yue then led Lin Yupeng to the person sitting to Zhang Yueran's left, smiling as he said, "Brother Lin, let me introduce you. This is Tong Yu, the vice president of our group."

Tong Yu was short and thin, but his head was larger than others, with a hooked nose, pointed ears, and a pair of sharp, intelligent eyes.

"President Tong! Hello!" Lin Yupeng smiled and extended his right hand.

"Hehe, hello! Young man, keep up the good work, you have a bright future!" Tong Yu shook hands with Lin Yupeng, his voice high-pitched and slightly hoarse, which was somewhat unpleasant to listen to.

Then Yang Yue led Lin Yupeng around to the person to Zhang Yueran's right, smiling as he said, "Brother Lin, let me introduce you again. This is Xu Weiguo, the vice president and administrative director of our group!"

Xu Weiguo was of medium height and appearance, and seemed quite ordinary. But for such an ordinary person to become a vice president meant he must have something extraordinary about him, even if it wasn't apparent at the moment.

Lin Yupeng shook hands with Xu Weiguo and, guided by Yang Yue, sat down next to Xu Weiguo. He had now met the president and three vice presidents of the Tianqiong Group, known to outsiders as the "Four Giants."

Yang Yue sat opposite Lin Yupeng and instructed the waiter to serve the dishes. A lavish banquet was gradually brought out, featuring abalone, shark fin, bird's nest, and other high-end dishes, some of which Lin Yupeng didn't even recognize.

"Eat as much as you like, don't be shy!" Zhang Yueran smiled slightly at Lin Yupeng; this was the only thing he said that evening.

Just then, there was a knock at the door. A bodyguard near the door opened it, and a man and a woman entered. The man, in his thirties, wore a sharp suit and tie, with a fair complexion, bright eyes, and a slightly upturned mouth—even when he wasn't smiling, he gave the impression of being cheerful and approachable.

The woman was stunningly beautiful and dressed very stylishly. She had red and yellow curly hair, large gold earrings, and a coffee-colored sleeveless top that exposed her chest and back, revealing her navel. Her upper body was more revealing than she was wearing. She wore a bright red tulle skirt with lace trim and black plaid stockings, showcasing her maturity and sexiness to the fullest.

Lin Yupeng had seen countless beautiful women and was somewhat immune to such dazzling beauty. His gaze then fell on the man, because from the moment he entered, Lin Yupeng felt the man looked familiar, but he couldn't quite place where he had seen him before.

The woman went straight to Zhang Yueran's side as soon as she entered, her movement creating a fragrant breeze—it must have been a top-tier European perfume, fresh, elegant, and invigorating.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled, and she said sweetly, "President Zhang, another distinguished guest has arrived and wishes to see you!"

Zhang Yueran nodded, quickly scanning the crowd before standing up and leaving the VIP room with his stern bodyguard.

********** Fourth update today, next update around 10 PM. Thank you for your support and encouragement! ^_^

Chapter 82: Peace and Prosperity

After Zhang Yueran left, Yang Yue introduced Lin Yupeng to a new man and woman. The woman was the head of the public relations department at Tianqiong Group, named Qiao Fenny—a rather stylish name, clearly changed later.

The naturally smiling man was the director of the president's office at Tianqiong Group, named Lang Zikun. The president's office served high-level leaders, similar to the steward of a wealthy family in the past.

When Lin Yupeng heard the name Lang Zikun, his heart skipped a beat. He recalled seeing Zhao Yanmei filming an adult video in the nurses' apartment while manipulating a small flying insect. She called the director "Brother Kun." At that time, he was wearing a black mask, so his face was obscured, but his build was very similar to Lang Zikun's. Moreover, his name ended with the character "Kun," and his voice was also similar. Therefore, Lin Yupeng deduced that Lang Zikun was most likely that adult video director!

"How come Tianqiong Group is secretly filming adult videos? That's impossible. Why would they film adult videos in a nurses' apartment? There are so many places to do that!" Lin Yupeng was filled with doubt.

"Ah, so you're the new Product Development Manager! I've heard so much about you, double PhD, young and promising. We'll be colleagues from now on, please take care of me!" After hearing Yang Yue's introduction, Qiao Fenny extended her slender hand to Lin Yupeng. Her voice was melodious and magnetic.

"Manager Qiao, you're too kind. I'm new here, you should be the one to look after me!" Lin Yupeng politely shook Qiao Fenny's hand, noticing that her hand wasn't as soft and smooth as a young girl's, but rather had a unique and alluring elasticity.

"Oh, don't call me Manager Qiao, it sounds awkward. Just call me by my name, Fenny. I feel you're definitely younger than me, calling me Sister Fenny isn't a loss, is it?" Qiao Fenny glanced at Lin Yupeng with her sparkling almond-shaped eyes and smiled sweetly.

"Hehe, I know, Sister Fenny!" Lin Yupeng casually replied.

He had been watching Qiao Fenny and Lang Zikun closely, not noticing that Xiao Ru's charming smile, which had been beaming since they entered, had suddenly vanished...

After exchanging pleasantries with Qiao Fenny, Lang Zikun approached again, patted him on the shoulder, and smiled, "Brother Lin, keep up the good work! Joining our Tianqiong Group is a wise choice for you. Young people are full of energy, and your future is limitless!"

Lin Yupeng smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Lang, I will work hard!"

The banquet continued, and Zhang Yueran's seat remained empty. Qiao Fenny and Lang Zikun, who arrived later, sat next to Lin Yupeng and Yang Yue, respectively. With

Zhang Yueran gone, the atmosphere at the banquet became much more lively. Qiao Fenny, sitting next to Lin Yupeng, was very enthusiastic, frequently toasting him and chatting with him incessantly. However, the conversation had nothing to do with the company; it was all about Lin Yupeng's personal life. She even asked him what color he liked and what dishes he enjoyed eating, and everything was very natural, like a casual chat.

"No wonder she's the head of public relations; she really knows how to handle men!" Lin Yupeng chuckled inwardly. He was naturally wary of Qiao Fenny's attempt to extract information from him through her introduction. Revealing trivial details was fine, but when it came to privacy, he would be vague or find another reason to change the subject.

As the saying goes, "No feast is complete without wine," and this banquet had plenty of fine wines—enough to hold a cocktail party. The foreign wines included Chivas Regal, Rémy Martin, Montblanc Champagne, Bacardi, and whiskey—all world-renowned brands; domestic wines were also present: Moutai, Fenjiu, and Dukang.

Lin Yupeng noticed that the senior leaders of the Tianqiong Group present were all seasoned "alcohol connoisseurs," mixing domestic and foreign wines, clinking glasses, and soon the bottles on the table were empty.

After several rounds of drinks and dishes, Yang Yue suggested going upstairs to the dance hall, and everyone else nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Yang, I'm not a very good dancer, so I'd better not embarrass myself!" Lin Yupeng said goodbye to Yang Yue, wanting to go home as soon as possible.

"Haha, Brother Lin, you're too modest. You're having a good time today, come and have some fun! Mr. Zhang already instructed that you should eat and have fun, and if you leave like this, we won't be able to explain it to him!" Yang Yue smiled.

"Yes, Minister Lin, please go!" Qiao Fenny echoed, her almond-shaped eyes sparkling.

Tong Yu and Xu Weiguo also turned their gazes to Lin Yupeng. Feeling that he couldn't refuse, he followed Yang Yue and the others to the fourth floor.

The upper floors of the Meidu Hotel were open to the public, and also hosted important VIPs related to the group, all of whom were wealthy or powerful figures.

The ballroom on the fourth floor was much more luxurious than the one open to the public on the first floor, with a giant crystal rotating chandelier, a classic Broadway-style red carpet, imported super-cool sound system, rows of soft seats and coffee tables around the stage, and male and female waiters moving back and forth to serve hot and cold drinks to those who were tired from dancing and sitting down to rest.

On the dance floor, couples danced gracefully, their clothes fluttering like butterflies. Some women were dressed so scantily clad that watching them dance revealed their slender legs and jade-like arms, their alluring eyes and red lips blending seamlessly. As

Lin Yupeng and his group entered the dance hall and took their seats, a man who appeared to be a manager rushed over with a beaming smile.

"General Manager Tong, General Manager Xu, General Manager Yang, Director Lang, Minister Qiao, welcome!" he said, bowing obsequiously.

"Ah Chang, let me introduce you. This is Minister Lin, the newly appointed Minister of Product Development!" Yang Yue never missed an opportunity to introduce Lin Yupeng.

"Minister Lin, hello, hello!" Ah Chang shook hands with Lin Yupeng respectfully.

"Ah Chang, we're here to have some fun. Arrange a few girls to accompany us, A-grade girls!" Yang Yue ordered.

"These girls are divided into A, B, C grades? Then A-grade must be the highest!" Lin Yupeng thought to himself.

"Ah Chang, call Xiao Jiao out here, I want her!" Vice President Tong Yu's small eyes gleamed as he said to Ah Chang.

Ah Chang looked embarrassed and gave an apologetic smile, saying, "President Tong, I'm sorry! Xiao Jiao is with a guest, she's not here!"

"Slap—Ouch—"

Before Ah Chang could finish speaking, Tong Yu suddenly flew into a rage, jumped up, and slapped him hard across the face!

"Damn it! Didn't I tell you already? Tonight, my buddies are coming, and no A-level girls are allowed to go out!" Tong Yu's eyes blazed with anger as he shouted.

His voice, already high-pitched and hoarse, became even more shrill and grating when he yelled, like the cawing of a crow.

"I'm sorry, President Tong, it was President Zhang who ordered Xiao Jiao to accompany an important guest," Ah Chang said respectfully, clutching his throbbing cheek.

Tong Yu's anger subsided by half, and he slumped back into his seat, his face ashen, saying nothing.

**********This is the last update for today. Updates will resume tomorrow morning at 9 AM. Please recommend and favorite, thank you!^_^

Chapter 83: A Soul-Stirring Dance

This Ah Chang, a long-time patron of the entertainment industry, had a skin thicker than a city wall. Having just been beaten, he was now fawning over Tong Yu with a fawning smile, saying, "Mr. Tong, we have some new beauties here. Any one of them is just as stunning as Xiao Jiao. We also have Russian beauties. Would you like to take a look?"

Hearing this, Tong Yu's anger subsided, his eyes lit up, and he smirked, "Oh? Then hurry up and call them out!"

"Yes, yes!" Ah Chang turned and gestured for a waiter, whispered a few words, and the waiter dashed out of the dance hall.

Not long after, the waiter returned, followed by more than a dozen women, each a beauty of unparalleled grace and allure. They wore silver-white bras and super-short skirts, their pink and white, sexy legs swaying rhythmically, a mesmerizing sight.

Among them were three Russian beauties, with blue eyes, blond hair, and skin as white as cream, seemingly dripping with moisture. Their hips were particularly full and large, their very short skirts barely covering half of their bodies, the other half bulging out, arousing men's desire.

Achang had these dozen or so women line up, facing Tong Yu and his group, allowing them to choose as they pleased.

Tong Yu's eyes widened instantly. He scanned the women up and down, swallowed hard, and feigned modesty, saying to Xu Weiguo beside him, "Mr. Xu, you choose!"

Xu Weiguo's eyes flashed, and he shook his head with a smile, "I drank a bit too much just now, so I won't dance!"

Tong Yu then turned to Yang Yue, "Mr. Yang, how about one?"

Yang Yue chuckled dryly and shook his head, "I'm not choosing. I have an appointment with Fanny tonight to have a showdown with her on the dance floor! She's changing clothes, she'll be right back!"

"Oh? You don't want either of you? Then I won't be polite!" Tong Yu couldn't contain himself any longer and nodded, choosing the most voluptuous and sexy Russian woman.

The Russian woman smiled sweetly, her delicate eyes seemingly overflowing with moisture, and leaned close to Tong Yu.

Tong Yu pinched her plump, white buttocks, even sniffing them, and chuckled wickedly with a look of ecstasy, "This Russian chick's ass is really plump and fragrant!"

The Russian woman could actually understand Chinese, and even replied in broken Chinese, "And...it's energetic!"

"Haha!" Tong Yu, Yang Yue, and Lang Zikun all burst into laughter. Xu Weiguo remained silent, slowly sipping the coffee the waiter had brought.

Lin Yupeng hadn't expected that this Vice President Tong would not only have a bad temper but also speak so vulgarly, truly unbecoming of his status. Looking at his sallow complexion and vacant eyes, it was clear he had been excessively lustful, and coupled with his thin build, it seemed as if all his energy had been drained by women.

At this moment, Lang Zikun ordered a woman named Xiao Lan, and finally it was Lin Yupeng's turn.

A-Chang sidled up to Lin Yupeng and chuckled dryly, "Minister Lin, which one have you chosen?"

Lin Yupeng smiled and shook his head, saying, "I don't want any, thank you!"

A-Chang nodded, glanced at Xiao Ru sitting next to Lin Yupeng, smiled knowingly, and asked, "What would you like to drink?"

A waiter handed over a menu listing various drinks, categorized by type and brand in great detail. The coffee section alone had over thirty different brands, all world-renowned.

"A freshly squeezed orange juice, please!" Lin Yupeng smiled slightly, turned, and handed the menu to Xiao Ru beside him, saying, "You order one!"

Xiao Ru took the menu, glanced at it, and whispered, "Krais Coffee! Thank you!"

A moment later, the waiter brought the orange juice and coffee. Lin Yupeng took a couple of sips, and just then, Qiao Fenny, dressed in a red dance dress, gracefully walked over, her eyes alluring and radiant.

"Wow, so beautiful!" Yang Yue chuckled, his eyes sparkling.

"Mr. Yang, let's dance!" Qiao Fenny smiled sweetly, extending her slender hand to Yang Yue.

Yang Yue laughed heartily, took her hand, and, to the strains of the melodious music, stepped lightly onto the dance floor. The two danced gracefully, their clothes fluttering like butterflies, a dazzling sight.

Qiao Fenny and Yang Yue's dancing skills were evenly matched; their coordination was seamless, quickly creating a fresh and beautiful atmosphere on the dance floor, attracting envious glances from many.

Seeing Yang Yue and Qiao Fenny performing so well, Tong Yu felt a surge of desire. After flirting with the Russian beauty beside him for a while, he couldn't wait to pull her onto the dance floor.

"Minister Lin, let's dance!" Xiao Ru said sweetly to Lin Yupeng, her eyes filled with allure.

Lin Yupeng felt her breath was as sweet as orchids and her voice was cloyingly sweet, and his heart fluttered. He glanced at her and smiled, "I'm not a very good dancer, I'm afraid I can't keep up with the rhythm!"

Xiaoru smiled sweetly and said in a charming voice, "It's okay, let's dance to a slower song!"

As soon as she finished speaking, the intro to Jacky Cheung's old song "I Want to Go for a Walk with You" began to play in the dance hall. It was a slow waltz, very suitable for people with average dancing skills.

Xiaoru's pretty face showed joy, and her beautiful eyes rippled with a gentle, charming light. She giggled and said, "Minister Lin, let's dance to this song!"

Lin Yupeng smiled and nodded, took Xiaoru's fair and smooth hand, and the two of them slowly stepped onto the dance floor.

A low, soothing, slightly melancholic song drifted through the ballroom: "I want to go for a walk with you again, though we're in different times and spaces, we can still face the wind and tell each other our dreams..."

Xiaoru's dancing skills were clearly a level above Lin Yupeng's. Her body was light, her legwork exquisite, her movements graceful, and coupled with her charming, captivating eyes and intoxicating smile, she was like a celestial being descended to earth.

Lin Yupeng held her slender, delicate waist, grasped her soft, smooth hand, and inhaled her fresh, sweet fragrance, feeling as if his soul was floating, as if he had entered a fairyland.

Xiaoru's eyes grew increasingly gentle, her delicate beauty almost overflowing with moisture. She danced closer and closer to Lin Yupeng, finally pressing herself gently against him. He could clearly feel her adorable "little white rabbits" trembling alluringly with their movements, and his heart softened with that tremor, a surge of desire slowly rising within him…

Just as the song ended, Lin Yupeng's phone rang. He smiled apologetically at Xiaoru and said, "Excuse me, I need to take this call."

A hint of melancholy flashed in Xiaoru's alluring eyes, but she smiled and nodded.

Lin Yupeng went to a corner of the dance hall, took out his phone, and pressed the answer button. Qin Xue's sweet voice came from the other end: "Honey, where are you?"

Qin Xue had changed her way of addressing him to "honey," which felt a little strange to Lin Yupeng, but remembering how she had repeatedly called him "honey, honey" during their lovemaking the night before, the desire within him surged again.

**********The next update will be at 12 noon. Thank you for your support and encouragement!^_^

Chapter 84: Lip Reading

"I have a business dinner at the company! Xiaoxue, where are you?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"I'm at your house! I've already cooked dinner, but you haven't come back yet!" Qin Xue said

softly. Lin Yupeng glanced at his watch. It was almost 8 pm. He hadn't expected Qin Xue to still be at his house and even cook him dinner. Was this girl going to live with him?

"I'll be back soon. Eat if you're hungry!" Lin Yupeng said apologetically.

"I'm not hungry. I'll wait for you to come back!" Qin Xue said softly. She had now become a little wife eagerly awaiting her husband's return.

Lin Yupeng hung up the phone, turned to Xiaoru's side, smiled apologetically, and said, "Xiaoru, I'm sorry, I have to go!"

A hint of resentment flashed in Xiaoru's eyes as she softly asked, "Was it your girlfriend who invited you to dinner?"

Lin Yupeng was taken aback, thinking, "How did Xiaoru know it was my girlfriend? I deliberately went to a corner to answer the phone. The dance hall is so noisy, there's no way Xiaoru could have heard me. Is a woman's intuition really that sharp?"

Actually, after getting to know Xiaoru better, he learned that she possessed an ancient skill—lip reading. She could read up to 90% of what someone was saying just by looking at their lip movements. In other words, she could successfully decipher ten sentences, and with a good performance, even one hundred percent.

Should he tell her he had a girlfriend or not? Lin Yupeng didn't think it through immediately, so he simply smiled without answering and changed the subject, saying, "Xiaoru, you can have fun here, I'm leaving first!"

"It's no fun for me if you leave, I'll go with you!" Xiaoru's tone was slightly disappointed, but she forced a smile.

At this moment, Yang Yue and Shi Fenny were dancing enthusiastically on the dance floor, dancing one song after another without showing any signs of fatigue.

Tong Yu and the Russian beauty danced for a couple of songs before running off to a dark corner of the dance hall to play a game between men and women. It seemed that every dance hall had such a dark corner for the men and women to whisper sweet nothings and engage in some shady dealings.

Lang Zikun had disappeared without a trace, leaving only Xu Weiguo sitting there, sipping coffee and smoking a cigar, his eyes narrowed as he observed the men and women in the dance hall, expressionless, not even changing his posture.

Lin Yupeng walked to his side and smiled, "Mr. Xu, I have to go now!" He felt it wouldn't be proper to leave without saying goodbye; he should at least say goodbye to a leader before leaving to avoid being impolite.

Xu Weiguo glanced at Lin Yupeng, smiled calmly, and said in a deep voice, "Okay, I understand!"

"Goodbye, Mr. Xu!" Lin Yupeng laughed heartily.

Xu Weiguo nodded, his gaze fixed on a slit, and lit another cigar.

Lin Yupeng and Xiaoru went downstairs together and left the Meidu Hotel.

They reached the street corner, where Lin Yupeng hailed a taxi. He and Xiaoru got in, heading first to the logistics service building of the Tianqiong Group, where Xiaoru lived in the staff dormitory.

The car slowly started moving, a puff of smoke rising from the exhaust pipe as it sped away.

Suddenly, a figure appeared from around the corner, slightly overweight, his narrowed eyes gleaming with resentment. He watched the departing taxi, stubbed out his cigarette, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it...

Lin Yupeng took Xiaoru back to her dormitory, then hurried home. As soon as he entered, he saw Qin Xue sitting at the square table in the living room, her beautiful, clear, deep eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Seeing Lin Yupeng return, her pretty face immediately lit up with joy. She stood up and rushed to his side like a swallow returning to its nest, her beautiful eyes filled with affection yet tinged with resentment as she said, "Honey, you're finally back!"

"I'm sorry, I thought you went to school!" Lin Yupeng smiled apologetically.

"No, I wasn't feeling well today..." Qin Xue blushed and whispered.

"What's wrong?" Lin Yupeng asked knowingly, smiling as he asked her.

"It's all because of what you did last night... I didn't get up until noon today, you're so naughty!" Qin Xue's face turned even redder as she playfully scolded him.

Lin Yupeng knew it was because he had just taken her virginity last night. A night of passion in bed, Qin Xue's body, being a novice, was definitely not up to the task. But seeing the blushing happiness on Qin Xue's face, his heart warmed. This woman had already considered him her lifelong support.

Qin Xue always believed that being able to give one's most precious thing to the person one loves is the greatest happiness a girl can have in her life!

Women often say the opposite of what they mean; when she said "naughty," she actually meant "good."

Lin Yupeng gently helped her sit down, supporting her shoulder. He sat beside her and glanced at the square table in front of them, where three dishes were laid out: honey chicken wings, sweet and sour pork ribs, and stir-fried bok choy with mushrooms. They looked vibrant and appetizing.

"Hehe, so you can cook!" Lin Yupeng chuckled.

"Of course! Try some!" Qin Xue smiled sweetly.

"You haven't eaten either, have you? Let's eat together!" Lin Yupeng smiled slightly, picked up his chopsticks, took a piece of honey chicken wing, and tasted it. He found it sweet and delicious, quite tasty. He hadn't expected Qin Xue to be such a good cook.

Earlier at the Meidu Hotel, although he had eaten top-quality delicacies—a meal worth at least ten thousand yuan, enough for half a year's salary for an average person—Lin Yupeng didn't eat much. It was his first meeting with the high-ranking leaders of the Tianqiong Group, and he felt somewhat reserved. Besides, they didn't eat much either, as if they were tired of eating such expensive food every day, only thinking about finishing quickly so they could have a good time.

Now, eating the dishes Qin Xue had personally cooked for him, feeling her tender affection, Lin Yupeng found the ordinary dishes tasted exceptionally delicious.

"They taste great! I'm so lucky!" Lin Yupeng praised as he ate.

"Of course! I have many more of my signature dishes to make!" Qin Xue smiled sweetly. Then, a hint of reproach suddenly appeared on her pretty face, and she said coquettishly, "Why are you so late? I've reheated the food several times."

"I'm sorry, I had a business dinner with the boss!" Lin Yupeng said apologetically.

"I don't care! You made me wait so long, you have to make it up to me!" Qin Xue's beautiful eyes sparkled as she pouted.

"Okay, I'll make it up to you...hehe...but I haven't thought of anything yet, I'll tell you when I do!" Lin Yupeng smiled mischievously. Actually, he already had a plan for making it up to her, but he was just teasing her by keeping it a secret for now.

Chapter 85 Cohabitation Life

"Okay then! Oh, by the way, you've already eaten? Then all the cooking I did was for nothing?" Qin Xue asked.

"It's okay, I didn't eat much, I was busy drinking!" Lin Yupeng said.

"Oh, then hurry up and eat, it'll get cold soon!" Qin Xue said sweetly.

"Let's eat together!" Lin Yupeng put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs into Qin Xue's bowl.

After the two finished dinner and cleaned up the dishes, Qin Xue pulled Lin Yupeng to go to the living room to watch TV. Lin Yupeng had no choice but to sit with her on the sofa in the living room and turn on the 30-inch "home theater".

Qin Xue nestled beside him, her eyes glued to the television, a sweet and happy expression on her face. She and Lin Yupeng were clearly already living together.

Lin Yupeng hadn't watched TV in ages. The television, bought when they first moved in, had sat in the living room, watched only a handful of times. Today, he was relieved to find it completely dry; it seemed buying that brand had been the right decision.

The television offered a wide variety of programs, but like other girls, Qin Xue preferred romantic dramas. The male leads were handsome and charming, the female leads beautiful and captivating. The stories revolved around misunderstandings and reconciliations, separations and reunions, ultimately ending in a happy ending. Despite

the predictable plots, Qin Xue watched with rapt attention, sometimes glancing at Lin Yupeng beside her with tender eyes, imagining herself and Lin Yupeng as the characters in the drama.

Lin Yupeng's eyes were fixed on the television screen, but his mind was preoccupied with company matters. The Sky Dome Group had a complex personnel structure, especially its several high-ranking leaders, all of whom were unfathomable. It seemed he would have to be more cautious in the future.

Suddenly, the image of the cold-blooded bodyguard beside Zhang Yueran flashed into his mind. Although this man tried his best to conceal his sharpness, the murderous aura he inadvertently revealed was already chilling.

Lin Yupeng concluded that this man must possess extraordinary skills, capable of taking on ten or even a hundred men single-handedly, and he seemed extremely loyal to Zhang Yueran, practically a loyal follower.

"If I can use the flying insects to control Zhang Yueran and his bodyguard, then I might be able to control the entire Sky Dome Group. Whether I can control the others is secondary!"

However, his experiment hadn't yielded results yet. His first subject, Fang Na, hadn't shown the transformation he hoped for. He would have to observe her tonight.

According to Lin Yupeng's deduction, controlling Zhang Yueran and other high-ranking members of the Sky Dome Group would be much more difficult than controlling Fang Na. This is because his contact time with Zhang Yueran and the others was too short, resulting in very little information stored in their brains. Furthermore, the memory-deciphering device itself has a certain success rate; if it fails, and he can't find his own information, then controlling their brains becomes impossible.

In addition, to enter a person's brain, it must be done while they are asleep at night; finding their residence is another problem.

While deep in thought, he suddenly felt a warmth near his ear, and a delicate fragrance wafted into his nostrils. It was Qin Xue, who had breathed softly into his ear and asked gently, "Honey, what are you thinking about?"

"Hehe, I'm thinking about how to make it up to you!" Lin Yupeng told a white lie. He couldn't tell Qin Xue what was on his mind, fearing she wouldn't be able to accept it immediately.

"Oh, have you thought it through?" Qin Xue blinked her beautiful, clear eyes, asking expectantly.

"Hehe, I've thought it through. Close your eyes!" Lin Yupeng gazed at her and chuckled dryly.

Qin Xue was really obedient, closing her eyes quietly, her heart pounding. She vaguely guessed how Lin Yupeng was going to make it up to her.

Lin Yupeng gazed at Qin Xue's exquisitely beautiful face, her long, delicate eyelashes, her delicate nose like a hanging gall bladder, her bright red, plump lips, and the intoxicating blush on her cheeks—all of which tempted the rising desire within him.

He couldn't resist pulling Qin Xue into his arms, pressing his lips deeply against her soft, warm cherry blossoms, teasing her shy, delicate tongue, and sucking at her sweet, moist lips.

"Ah—" Qin Xue tried to moan loudly, but only managed half a sound before Lin Yupeng's lips sealed hers tightly.

Lin Yupeng felt waves of intoxicating pleasure emanating from her soft, cotton-like lips and fragrant tongue, merging with the surging desire within him to form an even greater fire, making his body hot and his hands begin to wander.

Qin Xue was wearing a sleeveless top, and because of the hot weather, she was only wearing a small undershirt underneath, without a bra. Therefore, Lin Yupeng's hand easily slipped inside, climbing up her breasts, squeezing and kneading them, constantly fiddling with the two nipples.

"Ah...no..." Qin Xue murmured indistinctly, her mouth still being kissed by Lin Yupeng, barely managing to squeeze out these three words.

These three words had no effect whatsoever; instead, they further stimulated Lin Yupeng's surging passion. What followed "no"? Did he not want to stop? Lin Yupeng had no intention of stopping

. One hand was still caressing Qin Xue's small breasts, while the other slowly slid down.

Qin Xue was wearing a denim mini-skirt, so his hand encountered almost no resistance as it slipped under the skirt. "Ah...it hurts!" Qin Xue's delicate brows furrowed slightly as she murmured. Lin Yupeng stopped what he was doing, looked at Qin Xue in his arms, and said softly, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Qin Xue's pretty face was as red as an apple. Hearing this, she nodded shyly and said apologetically, "Honey, I'm sorry, it hurts a little down there. Can I stay with you in a couple of days?" Lin Yupeng then realized that Qin Xue had just lost her virginity last night and her body hadn't recovered yet. Thinking of how rough he had been last night, he felt a pang of guilt. "I'm sorry, I was too rough last night. Does it hurt a lot?" he asked softly. "It doesn't hurt much. I feel very happy!" Qin Xue smiled sweetly. "Let me check you!" Lin Yupeng reached out to take off her skirt. "It's okay!" Qin Xue pressed her hand against Lin Yupeng's wrist, her shyness rising. "Hehe, don't forget I'm a doctor. I'll feel at ease if you let me check you!" Lin Yupeng said softly. Qin Xue's pretty face was flushed, and she nodded shyly, letting Lin Yupeng take off her denim miniskirt and the thong underneath, revealing her alluring petals. Lin Yupeng examined her closely. Because her hymen had ruptured and bled last night, her private parts were slightly red and swollen, but this would subside in a couple of days. Then he gently helped her put on her underwear and skirt, put his arm around her shoulders, and said softly, "Take a shower and go to sleep in a bit! You have to go to school tomorrow, you're still on probation. If someone finds out you're skipping class, that would be troublesome!" Chapter 86 Full Surveillance "I don't want to go! So what if I get expelled! I'm already yours, I won't try to please Lü Yihui just to stay on campus!" Qin Xue's tone was very firm, and Lin Yupeng felt a surge of warmth in his heart. She was actually willing to give up her studies for him. He couldn't help but hug Qin Xue tighter, whispering to comfort her, "Don't worry! I won't let Lü Yihui touch a hair on your head! You can still go to class as usual tomorrow. I have a way to get Lü Yihui to reinstate your student status!" Qin Xue was completely obedient to Lin Yupeng, nodding gently. Lin Yupeng, however, was pondering, "How can I get Lü Yihui to reinstate her student status? It seems I'll have to ask Yang Yue for help; that guy has connections everywhere." After making up his mind, Lin Yupeng had Qin Xue take a hot bath and arranged for her to rest in the study. Then he took a bath himself and went straight to the laboratory. Lin Yupeng opened the Little Flying Insect operating system. The monitoring screen displayed an image of Fang Na's brain. The transplant surgery had been successfully performed last night, moving Fei Wenchao's information to the unfamiliar area and his own information to the love area. Now it was up to Fang Na's reaction. He manipulated the Little Flying Insect to fly out of Fang Na's body, and the monitoring screen showed a scene from Fang Na's bedroom. Fang Na sat on the bed, head bowed, her expression sorrowful, her large, clear eyes brimming with tears. Opposite her, at the desk, sat a woman—her good friend Gao Lin. Gao Lin's face was bruised and swollen, covered in plasters, and her arms were streaked with blood, some already scabbed over—likely from a beating she'd received a couple of days prior. Fang Na, her eyes blurred with tears, cried out in a sorrowful voice, "Sister Lin, I'm so sorry! It's all my fault you've gotten like this!" Gao Lin smiled bitterly, saying, "It's not entirely your fault. It was my bad idea; I didn't expect it to backfire. I still don't understand why Fei Wenchao was in my room, and why he seemed to be under some kind of spell." Fang Na blinked her beautiful eyes, a look of confusion on her face, and asked, "Sister Lin, I don't understand what you're saying! What does this have to do with Fei Wenchao? Who is he?" Gao Lin froze, staring at Fang Na for a long time, as if she'd seen a Martian. "Nana, are you delirious with fever? Don't you know Fei Wenchao?" Fang Na's eyes were misty, and she nodded blankly, saying, "I don't know him. I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before, but I really can't remember who he is!" Lin Yupeng, sitting in front of the computer, was overjoyed to hear Fang Na's words. It seemed that his experiment had succeeded. Now Fang Na couldn't remember Fei Wenchao. The information about Fei Wenchao stored in the unfamiliar area had little effect on her. She could only vaguely feel that the name had some impression, and as for the so-called love she had for him in the past, it had all vanished. Gao Lin was taken aback, staring intently at Fang Na. She abruptly stood up and walked over to Fang Na, touching her forehead with a puzzled expression. "Strange," she said, "you don't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense?" Fang Na replied, confused, "I don't know either. I haven't felt well these past few days, and my mind is foggy, like I've forgotten something!" "Really can't remember anything? Then why did you cry when I told you Peng Hongliang beat you?" Gao Lin asked, puzzled. "I thought you were beaten to protect me and not tell him my new address!" Fang Na said softly. "No, it's because Peng Hongliang found out I had sex with another man on your birthday night…that man was Fei Wenchao! Sigh, you wouldn't understand even if I told you!" Gao Lin sighed. It turned out that Peng Hongliang had taken Gao Lin to one of his secret residences that night. Seeing her disheveled appearance and swollen lower body, he immediately realized she had just been with a man. Previously, Long San and Long Wu had assumed Gao Lin had masturbated, but Peng Hongliang, a veteran of the pleasure quarters, immediately saw through the deception, gave Gao Lin a severe beating, and forced her to tell the whole story. Gao Lin carefully examined Fang Na from head to toe, exclaiming in surprise, "Wow, I feel like you've grown taller than before!" Fang Na nodded, "Yes, I feel like I've grown a lot these past few days, it's really strange!" "Are you sick? Have you been to the hospital for a checkup?" Gao Lin asked with concern. "I did, but they didn't find anything. The doctor said it's just normal growth and development," Fang Na said quietly.

Lin Yupeng, watching from the monitor, estimated that Fang Na had indeed grown taller, at least 2 centimeters, and would likely continue to grow. This was the result of his recent efforts to stimulate her growth hormone secretion.

Just then, Fang Na said, "Sister Lin, I'm going to resign!"

Gao Lin was taken aback and asked, "Where are you going to resign?"

Fang Na replied, "I asked a friend to help me find a job at Songyang County People's Hospital. I'll start in a couple of days. I'm doing this to get away from Peng Hongliang's harassment."

Lin Yupeng was also surprised; Fang Na was going to work at Songyang County People's Hospital. Songyang County was under the jurisdiction of Tianhan City, adjacent to the North Suburbs Development Zone.

Gao Lin said, "It's good that you resigned. It'll be good to get away from Peng Hongliang's harassment. Let's keep in touch by phone from now on. It's best not to meet in person. Peng Hongliang is keeping a close eye on me. I only managed to sneak out tonight while he was in a meeting."

Lin Yupeng thought to himself, "What kind of meeting is he having tonight? I wonder what he's up to!"

Gao Lin gave Fang Na a few more instructions and then hurriedly left Fang Na's house.

After seeing Gao Lin off, Fang Na returned to her bedroom and went to bed. Lin Yupeng deduced that since Fang Na was leaving Tianhan Medical University Affiliated Hospital for Songyang County People's Hospital, she would have to move within the next couple of days, as it was quite far from Songyang County, requiring a two-hour bus ride each way to and from work, which was extremely inconvenient.

Fang Na's series of unusual actions were enough to prove that Lin Yupeng's experiment had succeeded. Now that Little Flying Insect No. 2 was no longer effective in her body, he manipulated Little Flying Insect No. 2 back home for maintenance and repair, and then released it again, this time targeting Tianqiong Group.

He suspected that Yang Yue was connected to the person who spread his scandalous photos, and based on Han Yun's words, he deduced that Yang Yue might also be the mastermind controlling Lü Yihui and secretly dealing with him!

To get to the bottom of this matter, he decided to place Yang Yue under full surveillance.

Lin Yupeng manipulated Little Flying Insect No. 2 directly to the Tianqiong Group's office building, went upstairs, and headed straight for Yang Yue's office on the 20th floor.

**********Guaranteed update of 40,000 words today, please give me some flowers, thank you ^_^

Chapter 87 Killing Two Birds with One Stone

It's already past 9 pm, and Yang Yue's vice president office is locked, but that can't stop Lin Yupeng's special robot. He manipulated Little Flying Insect No. 1 to slip through the crack in the door, fly over the outer reception room, and into Yang Yue's large office in the inner room, sticking to the wall behind Yang Yue's seat.

Little Flying Insect No. 1's camera is positioned high up, perfectly capturing a panoramic view of the office.

During the day at Tianqiong Group, Lin Yupeng can't conduct real-time monitoring because he has to install a soapbox-sized sensor and Little Flying Insect's operating system on his office computer. If he's discovered, all his efforts will be wasted. Now he has to go through security checks at the gate every day before going to work and can't take leave.

Therefore, he can only put Little Flying Insect in Yang Yue's office for now, using the robot's recording function to record Yang Yue's activities in the office during the day, to be reviewed when he gets home.

After everything was arranged, Lin Yupeng left the lab, took a hot shower, and went back to his bedroom to sleep.

The next morning, he got up early, made breakfast, and ate with Qin Xue. Qin Xue went to school, while Lin Yupeng went to work at Tianqiong Group.

Xiao Ru arrived earlier than him and was sitting at her desk reading the company's morning newspaper.

"Good morning, Minister Lin!" Xiao Ru looked up at Lin Yupeng and said sweetly.

"Hehe, not as early as you!" Lin Yupeng smiled slightly, returned to his seat, turned on his computer, browsed the news for a while, and then it was time to start work.

Xiao Ru put away the newspaper and began working. Her tasks were assigned by Deputy Minister He Dan, as the new minister, Lin Yupeng, had just taken office and needed time to adapt to the environment.

Suddenly, the phone on his desk rang. Lin Yupeng answered, and Yang Yue's voice came from the other end: "Brother Lin, did you have a good time last night?"

Lin Yupeng replied, "Pretty good, Mr. Yang. What are my tasks for today?"

"Hehe, familiarize yourself with the work environment, and then go to the laboratory to provide some guidance. They're currently researching a new drug called Yan Ke Xiao, so you need to keep a close eye on it!" Yang Yue said in a deep voice.

"Oh, is that all my work for this month?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"Yes!" Yang Yue said affirmatively.

"Then my salary is going to be a bit of a burden!" Lin Yupeng said, half-jokingly and half-seriously.

"Haha, Brother Lin, the higher-ups are pushing hard for this drug. It must be completed this month and then immediately put into clinical trials, with a market launch by the end of the year. You must ensure quality and efficacy. Your burden is actually quite heavy!"

"Okay, I understand. I'm off to work now. Goodbye!" Lin Yupeng had just hung up the phone when he heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!" he called out loudly.

As soon as the door opened, He Dan walked in, carrying a stack of documents. She went to Lin Yupeng's desk and said, "Minister Lin, this is our department's detailed work plan for next month, broken down to each person. Take a look, and if you have no objections, sign it. I'll pick it up tomorrow!"

"Okay!" Lin Yupeng took the documents and nodded.

He Dan turned and left the office. Lin Yupeng picked them up and flipped through them, discovering that next month they would begin researching a new drug for treating gastrointestinal ulcers, tentatively named Changweikang Granules, to be completed in two months. Such a short timeframe seemed like it was just old wine in new bottles.

Lin Yupeng glanced at it a few times and signed it. At that moment, Xiao Ru poured him a glass of orange juice and placed it on the table.

"Thank you!" Lin Yupeng glanced at Xiao Ru and smiled.

"You're welcome!" Xiao Ru smiled sweetly and returned to her seat to work.

Lin Yupeng took a couple of sips of the orange juice and suddenly remembered his promise to Qin Xue yesterday to put pressure on Lü Yihui to reinstate Qin Xue's student status. He decided to ask Yang Yue for help.

His decision was a double-edged sword. First, it would test Yang Yue's intentions. If Yang Yue readily agreed, it would indicate a close relationship between Yang Yue and Lü Yihui, providing further evidence for his previous deductions. Second, if Yang Yue agreed, Qin Xue's student status could be preserved. Of course, this all depended on Yang Yue agreeing to help Lin Yupeng.

With that in mind, Lin Yupeng picked up the phone and dialed Yang Yue's office number. His secretary, Xiao Fen, Xiao Ru's older sister, answered.

"Hello!"

"Is Mr. Yang there?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"He's not here, he's in a meeting. Are you Minister Lin?" Xiao Fen recognized Lin Yupeng's voice.

"Yes, when will he be back?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"It's uncertain. How about this, I'll have him call you back when he gets back!" Xiao Fen said thoughtfully.

"Okay, thank you, goodbye!" Lin Yupeng hung up and sat on the sofa, listlessly waiting for Yang Yue's reply.

About an hour later, the phone rang again. Lin Yupeng answered it, and Yang Yue's voice came through: "Brother Lin, is there something you need?"

"Yes, I'd like to come to your office so we can talk in person!" Lin Yupeng replied.

"Okay, come on over, I'll wait for you!" Yang Yue said and hung up.

Lin Yupeng arrived at Vice President Yang Yue's office and saw him standing by the window with his hands behind his back, gazing at the view of the building, while his secretary, Xiao Fen, was typing on the computer.

Upon seeing Lin Yupeng arrive, Yang Yue immediately smiled and gestured for him to sit on the leather sofa next to the desk. Then, turning to Xiao Fen, he said, "Xiao Fen, brew a pot of Longjing tea for my brother Lin!"

Xiao Fen responded, brewed a pot of tea, placed it on the coffee table in front of Lin Yupeng, and poured him a full cup.

"Thank you!" Lin Yupeng laughed heartily, glancing at Xiao Fen. He noticed that she didn't look too well today; her eyes were slightly dark. Although she was wearing foundation, it didn't escape Lin Yupeng's sharp eyes.

Yang Yue leaned down and sat on the sofa chair, sizing up Lin Yupeng a few times before smiling and saying, "Brother Lin, what brings you here?"

Lin Yupeng replied, "It's about the photo of me that appeared in the newspaper a few days ago."

Yang Yue was taken aback and said, "I already asked someone to have the City Life Daily stop reporting on it. Why is there news about it again today?"

Lin Yupeng said, "I didn't read today's newspaper, but I'm not here for the photo. You know this incident also involves a girl named Qin Xue. She's innocent, but she's currently under probation and could be expelled at any time. I want to ask you to use your connections to reinstate her as soon as possible. Money is no problem; I'll pay whatever it takes."

Yang Yue laughed and said, "I thought it was something important! This little thing is no problem for me. I can handle it for you. No money needed; a word or a note will do!"

"Thank you, Mr. Yang. Let's have dinner sometime!" Lin Yupeng laughed heartily, but secretly thought, "Just as I expected, Yang Yue agreed so readily. His relationship with Lü Yihui is definitely not ordinary!"

Chapter 88: Opportunity Arrives

Suddenly, he noticed Yang Yue's face darken, his facial muscles twitching slightly. Lin Yupeng wondered, "What's going on? Did he realize I have ulterior motives?"

"Brother Lin, if you have nothing else to do, go ahead. I have things to take care of. Let's talk again sometime!" Yang Yue's expression grew increasingly unpleasant, effectively dismissing him.

Lin Yupeng had no choice but to turn and leave Yang Yue's office, secretly planning to check the video footage taken by the fly when he got home to find out what Yang Yue was up to.

He returned to his office and flipped through today's City Life Daily, finding no mention of him.

Lin Yupeng sat on the sofa, closing his eyes to rest. After some time, his phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw it was Fang Na calling. He pressed the answer button.

"Brother Lin, how have you been lately?" Fang Na asked directly, her tone full of concern.

"I'm fine. How are you? Is work going well?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"I resigned today!" Fang Na said quietly.

"Oh, you resigned? Where are you going?" Lin Yupeng asked, feigning surprise.

"To Songyang County People's Hospital. All the formalities are done, and I'll officially start work next Monday."

"Oh, congratulations!"

"Brother Lin, I have something I'd like to ask you for a favor." Fang Na pleaded softly, her voice gentle and sweet.

"Go ahead, I'll do my best to help you!" Lin Yupeng was secretly delighted.

"I'd like to rent a place in Songyang County, it'll be more convenient for commuting. Could you help me find one? The rent should be under 600 yuan, preferably a one-bedroom apartment, a two-bedroom apartment is fine too." Fang Na said.

"Oh, you need to rent a place? I can help you look, I'll call you when I find one!" Lin Yupeng said.

"Okay, thank you!" Fang Na's tone was full of gratitude.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yupeng felt extremely relieved. Fang Na had actually asked him for a favor, and such an important matter as finding an apartment! This was enough to show that through his bold experiment, his status in Fang Na's heart had skyrocketed, replacing Fei Wenchao as her reliance.

If a woman is willing to ask a man to help her find an apartment, it at least indicates that their relationship is already very close. It's a kind of trust, and also an implication—her door is always open to him.

However, a problem arose: how could he help Fang Na find an apartment? Lin Yupeng naturally wouldn't let such a good opportunity slip by. His brain raced, desperately searching for any friends in Songyang County who could help.

Suddenly, a figure flashed into his mind—tall, imposing, and righteous. He was delighted, thinking to himself, "That's right, how could I have almost forgotten him?"

The person Lin Yupeng remembered was his junior high school physical education teacher, and also his Tai Chi master, Sun Liancheng.

Sun Liancheng is no longer a teacher. When Lin Yupeng was in high school, he passed the civil service exam and became a police officer, now serving as the captain of the criminal investigation team at Songyang County Public Security Bureau.

However, Lin Yupeng hadn't contacted Teacher Sun for almost a year since their parting at his birthday party, wondering if he had changed jobs or phone numbers.

Lin Yupeng immediately took out his phone and dialed Sun Liancheng's number. After two rings, a deep, resonant male voice came from the other end:

"Hello? Hello!"

"Teacher Sun, it's me!"

"Yupeng! What's up?" Sun Liancheng said readily.

"Teacher Sun, how did you know I needed something?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"Hehe, you're a busy man, can't you call me if you don't have anything to do? Don't beat around the bush, just say what you need, I'm busy right now."

Lin Yupeng knew that Teacher Sun was straightforward, decisive, and never dragged things out. He preferred to speak directly to people and hated it when others beat around the bush. In his words, "That's a waste of time. Going around in circles always ends up back to the point anyway, so it's better to get straight to the point."

"Teacher Sun, a friend of mine wants to rent an apartment in Songyang County, a one-bedroom or two-bedroom apartment, with a monthly rent under 600 yuan. Could you please help me get in touch with him?"

"You think I'm a real estate agency? This is the Public Security Bureau!" Sun Liancheng said.

"I know, Teacher, you're the captain of the criminal investigation team, this little thing is no problem for you!" Lin Yupeng chuckled.

"Okay! I'll look for it in the family quarters of our bureau and call you when I've made contact!"

"Thank you, Teacher Sun! Are you busy with work lately?"

"It's alright! Nothing major, just a lot of small things. Last night, two groups of thugs had a brawl, and I caught a few and interrogated them half the night."

"Oh, Teacher Sun, you're as impressive as ever!" Lin Yupeng praised.

"Stop joking, kid. I told you you haven't been practicing Tai Chi regularly, you've almost forgotten it all, haven't you?" Sun Liancheng questioned.

"Mainly because I've been too busy with work, but I still remember all the moves you taught me, especially those few special techniques, I'll never forget them!" Lin Yupeng chuckled.

"Okay, I'm going now, goodbye!"

Lin Yupeng hung up the phone, recalling the days when he learned Tai Chi from Teacher Sun in junior high school, the memories vivid. When he thought about how he learned Tai Chi to protect his first love, Chen Lihan, a pang of melancholy struck him. Where was she now? Would he ever see her again in this life?

At noon, Lin Yupeng and Xiaoru went to the upscale restaurant on the sixth floor of the company's cafeteria. Yang Yue and Xiaofen weren't there this time. Lin Yupeng and Xiaoru casually ordered two dishes. The dishes here were all high-end; even the two dishes they casually ordered cost over 200 yuan. Since it was free, they didn't care about the price.

Xiaoru ate very little; Lin Yupeng ate most of it.

After lunch, the two returned to the office, chatted for a while, and then it was time for the afternoon's work.

Lin Yupeng strolled around the office, then walked out. The entire 15th floor housed the product development department; the office space was quite spacious, with five or six of the thirty-odd rooms vacant, all locked with heavy black padlocks.

Lin Yupeng first went to He Dan's office, where he saw her engrossed in writing. He Dan, as deputy director, was mainly responsible for administration and external liaison.

"Minister Lin is here!" He Dan smiled slightly at Lin Yupeng before returning to her work.

Seeing how focused she was, Lin Yupeng didn't want to disturb her and left the room. He then went to the office of another deputy director, Wei Qifeng. He found only a female secretary working diligently; Wei Qifeng wasn't there.

"Where's Minister Wei?" Lin Yupeng asked the secretary.

"Hello, Minister Lin, Minister Wei is in a meeting!" the secretary replied concisely.

Lin

Yupeng was quite displeased. He was clearly the director, yet it was Deputy Director Wei Qifeng attending the meeting—wasn't this undermining his authority?

Suddenly his phone rang. Lin Yupeng quickly walked to a corner of the corridor outside and pressed the answer button. Sun Liancheng's voice came from the other end: "Kid, I've taken care of your matter. A two-bedroom apartment on the third floor of the Songyang Branch Bureau's staff quarters, 500 yuan a month."

Lin Yupeng was delighted. He knew that Teacher Sun was always decisive and efficient; this was a piece of cake for him. He immediately replied, "Thank you, Teacher Sun! I'll definitely treat you to dinner another day!"

Sun Liancheng said, "Don't be so polite. Bring your friend to my office at 1 pm tomorrow. Give me a call, and I'll come out to show you the apartment."

"Okay, Teacher Sun, you're busy! See you tomorrow!" Although Sun Liancheng was no longer a teacher, Lin Yupeng was used to calling him that and couldn't change it.

Lin Yupeng hung up on Sun Liancheng and immediately called Fang Na, arranging to meet at the Songyang County Public Security Bureau at 1 pm the next day.

Lin Yupeng had been sitting in his office all afternoon. When it was time to leave work, there were no social engagements at the company, so he decided to go home early.

He returned home, took out his keys, and opened the door. He saw Qin Xue wearing an apron and cooking in the kitchen.

Because the exhaust hood was running loudly, she hadn't heard Lin Yupeng enter and was still focused on cooking.

Lin Yupeng smiled mischievously, quietly approached her from behind, suddenly put his arm around her shoulder, and breathed into her ear, saying, "Baby, I'm home!"

Qin Xue trembled slightly in fright, her heart pounding like a deer's. Seeing that it was Lin Yupeng who had embraced her, her face immediately lit up with joy, but with a hint of reproach, she said, "It's my husband! You scared me to death!"

Lin Yupeng hugged her from behind, gently kissing her delicately sculpted cheek, and said softly, "Darling, I didn't expect you to be so easily frightened!"

Qin Xue's pretty face flushed, her beautiful eyes sparkling, and she gave Lin Yupeng a charmingly reproachful look, saying coquettishly, "You're so annoying!"

Seeing a few beads of sweat on her forehead, Lin Yupeng quickly took the spatula from her hand and said softly, "Baby, let me cook! Go to the living room and rest for a while, have some cold drinks!"

Qin Xue pouted and said, "No! My celery and lily bulbs will be ready soon!"

Lin Yupeng smiled and nodded. After Qin Xue finished cooking the celery and lily bulbs, he took the spatula from her hand and chuckled dryly, "Today I'll show off my skills and make you Ants Climbing a Tree!"

Ants Climbing a Tree is a famous Sichuan dish. It doesn't contain ants; the main ingredients are vermicelli, minced meat, and chili peppers. After cooking, the vermicelli is covered with minced meat, resembling ants climbing a tree, with a bright red color and a fragrant, spicy, and refreshing taste.

Girls love spicy and flavorful food, so Lin Yupeng made this dish to cater to Qin Xue's taste. After the meal was prepared, Qin Xue indeed adored the "Ants Climbing a Tree" and ate it with great relish.

After dinner, Lin Yupeng and Qin Xue each took a hot shower and went to the living room to watch TV.

The drama that made Lin Yupeng drowsy but Qin Xue completely engrossed was only halfway through when Qin Xue suddenly remembered something and said to Lin Yupeng, "Honey, I have to study. Final exams are coming up soon!"

Lin Yupeng knew that the whole school would start unified exams next Monday, and although Qin Xue was on probation, she could still take the exams.

"Honey, this semester's courses are so hard! Can you tutor me?" Qin Xue said sweetly.

"Okay, you're so smart, you'll definitely pass the exams!" Lin Yupeng said seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, he realized that his tone was clearly that of a teacher encouraging a student, but he was no longer a teacher, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Qin Xue pulled Lin Yupeng into the study, and the two sat side by side at the table. Qin Xue took out an anatomy textbook from her bag and complained to Lin Yupeng, "After you resigned, the new anatomy teacher is really crazy! He doesn't give us any scope for the exam, saying he'll test our comprehensive abilities. Pshaw! He just wants us students to give him gifts and pull strings!"

Lin Yupeng laughed and said, "Don't worry! With my tutoring, I guarantee you'll pass smoothly. I can highlight the key points for you!"

Lin Yupeng was the one who taught anatomy, and he knew the important knowledge points in the textbook by heart. He could roughly mark out where the questions would be small and where the questions would be big.

Lin Yupeng picked up a pen and circled and marked the important knowledge points in Qin Xue's textbook in less than half an hour.

Qin Xue picked up the book and flipped through it, her beautiful eyes sparkling with joy. She asked sweetly, "Is that all? It doesn't seem like much!"

Lin Yupeng smiled smugly and said, "If you master all of this, I guarantee you'll get at least 10,000 points!"

"Hehe, thank you, husband! No, no, I should call you Teacher Lin!" Qin Xue giggled.

"Hurry up and read! If you don't master it, I'll punish you!" Lin Yupeng said sternly, deliberately adopting a teacher's authority.

Qin Xue was indeed obedient, diligently reading the book. When she didn't understand something, she asked Lin Yupeng for help. Lin Yupeng patiently explained, and after about an hour, Qin Xue had reviewed Chapter Six, the Reproductive System, in anatomy.

Looking at this chapter, especially the first section on the male reproductive system, Lin Yupeng recalled the scene when Qin Xue actually asked him to teach this lesson naked.

Looking at Qin Xue beside him, he saw a beautiful blush rise on her pretty face, her eyes shimmering with tenderness. He couldn't help but ask with a smile, "What are you thinking about?"

Qin Xue blinked her beautiful eyes and said sweetly, "The same as what you're thinking!"

Lin Yupeng laughed and said, "You were really bold back then, actually asking me to take off my clothes in front of everyone to be a nude model for this class, making me very embarrassed!"

Qin Xue giggled and said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity you didn't do as I said back then!"

Lin Yupeng said with a wicked smile, "Now I'll grant your wish and give you a nude tutoring session, hehe, do you dare to watch?"

Qin Xue's pretty face turned even redder, but she didn't back down, saying sweetly, "What's there to be afraid of? I not only watched the night before last, but I also... you know... it's just that the room was dark so I couldn't see clearly."

Lin Yupeng knew that the "you know" she was referring to was the night she used her hands and mouth to help him "release his fire," and he couldn't help but feel a surge of desire.

True to her word, Qin Xue acted swiftly, reaching out to undo Lin Yupeng's belt and, with trembling hands, pulling down his underwear, revealing his magnificent genitals.

Her face instantly flushed crimson with embarrassment, yet her eyes gleamed with curiosity. The room was brightly lit, and this was the first time she had seen a man's genitals so clearly.

Chapter Ninety: The Enchanting Pleasures

Lin Yupeng felt a soft, smooth hand caressing his lower body, waves of ecstatic pleasure shooting through his body like electric shocks, a tingling, pleasurable sensation.

“Husband, am I right? This is the vagina, its function is… This is the testicle, its function is… This is the glans, it has…”

Qin Xue became serious, pointing at Lin Yupeng's lower body and reciting anatomical points. Lin Yupeng felt his penis harden more and more with her pointing and intentional/unintentional touches, and a rising desire quickly ignited throughout his body.

“Does it still hurt down there?” Lin Yupeng held Qin Xue's hand and asked softly.

“It’s fine, it doesn’t hurt anymore!” Qin Xue replied shyly. She already knew what Lin Yupeng wanted to do, and she had already decided that she wouldn’t refuse him tonight.

"Then let's continue our tutoring in bed!" Lin Yupeng, unable to control the rising desire within him, chuckled dryly, picked Qin Xue up, and carried her straight to the bedroom.

He placed Qin Xue on the bed; her beautiful eyes were filled with tenderness, her pretty face flushed, shyly yet expectantly awaiting the storm of pleasure.

Lin Yupeng's lust was surging, unable to extricate himself. He quickly stripped off his already meager clothing, climbed onto the bed, and pressed himself against Qin Xue's fiery body.

Her luscious cherry lips trembled alluringly. Lin Yupeng's eyes burned with intense desire as he lowered his head and kissed her fair face passionately before sealing his lips with her own.

Qin Xue eagerly cooperated, involuntarily extending her delicate tongue to lick and suck at him, waves of tingling pleasure reverberating between them.

After a passionate kiss, Lin Yupeng gently removed Qin Xue's clothes, his hands caressing her fair body, teasing her sensitive areas.

"Ah...no...it hurts!" Qin Xue moaned softly.

Women often use innuendo in bed; "no" means "want," and "it hurts" means "it feels good."

This time, Lin Yupeng was gentle and considerate, his movements consistently tender.

After a few caresses, he eagerly entered Qin Xue's body, beginning rhythmic movements.

Qin Xue felt a tingling, numb sensation in her lower body, waves of ecstatic pleasure coursing through her entire body like electric currents. With each thrust from Lin Yupeng, she reached climax after climax, her moans and gasps blending into a symphony of love...

The morning sunlight shone warmly on Lin Yupeng's face. He was awakened by the ray of sunlight streaming through the window. The night's passionate lovemaking, the fusion of body and soul, had released all the joy. Fortunately, it was Saturday, and Qin Xue didn't have to go to school, so she could sleep in and replenish her energy from the previous night.

Lin Yupeng, on the other hand, didn't need time to recover; his energy was boundless. Qin Xue nestled in his arms, sleeping soundly, a sweet, happy smile playing on her beautiful, delicate lips.

He gently stroked her smooth, black hair, recalling the moments they had shared. To be loved by such a beautiful and lovely woman was undoubtedly a kind of happiness.

Lin Yupeng glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside table; it was already past 7 a.m. He sat up, got dressed, and went to the kitchen to make breakfast, leaving a portion on the coffee table in the bedroom for Qin Xue to eat when she woke up.

It was Saturday, no work, so Lin Yupeng left home and went to a nearby supermarket to buy some groceries, vegetables, meat, and eggs. He returned home close to 9 a.m.

Qin Xue was still fast asleep in his bedroom. Last night's passionate encounter, while physically pleasurable, had left her exhausted and in need of sleep. The breakfast he'd prepared was probably wasted.

Suddenly, Lin Yupeng remembered that last night he'd been so focused on tutoring Qin Xue that he'd succumbed to temptation and made love to her, completely forgetting to check the video Little Flying Insect No. 1 had secretly filmed in Yang Yue's office.

He immediately went into the lab, opened Little Flying Insect's operating system, and the monitor still showed the scene in Yang Yue's office. The office was empty, the door tightly closed.

It was a day off; Yang Yue was probably off having fun somewhere.

The "Little Flying Insect No. 1" secretly filmed the events from 10:20 PM the night before last to 9:00 AM this morning, a total of 34 hours and 40 minutes. Lin Yupeng quickly rewound the clock, pushing the timeline to 8:30 AM yesterday. By then, Yang Yue had already arrived at work, sitting in his office reviewing various documents and occasionally chatting with his secretary, Xiao Fen.

At 9:00 AM, Yang Yue received a phone call.

"Yes...yes...I'll be right there!" Since receiving the call, his expression had become extremely serious and respectful, almost to the point of standing at attention and giving a military salute.

After hanging up, Yang Yue left the office. Lin Yupeng recalled that he had called Yang Yue's office at 7:00 AM yesterday. Xiao Fen said Yang Yue was in a meeting, meaning that Lin Yupeng's call came shortly after Yang Yue left.

Sure enough, ten minutes later, the phone rang. Xiao Fen ran to answer it; the call was naturally from Lin Yupeng. An hour later, Yang Yue called him back.

Therefore, Lin Yupeng skipped over the entire hour of surveillance footage. At 10:15, he saw Yang Yue return to his office. Xiao Fen then told him that Lin Yupeng had called looking for him, and Yang Yue immediately dialed Lin Yupeng's office number.

Then, Lin Yupeng came to Yang Yue to ask for help in pleading for Qin Xue. Lin Yupeng focused on what Yang Yue did after his expression suddenly changed and he subtly asked him to leave.

Just as Lin Yupeng left Yang Yue's office, Yang Yue gave Xiao Fen a wink, and Xiao Fen quickly walked to the door.

Lin Yupeng's heart skipped a beat: "Could Yang Yue have had Xiao Fen secretly follow me?"

Watching further, the mystery was solved; he was wrong. He saw Xiao Fen open the door and say something to a male secretary in the reception room, who might also be Yang Yue's bodyguard—the distance made it difficult to hear clearly.

After speaking, Xiao Fen returned to her office and locked the door behind her.

"Why lock the door in broad daylight? They must be up to something shady!" Lin Yupeng thought to himself, continuing to watch. He saw Yang Yue stand up and quickly walk into the break room next to the office, with Xiao Fen following behind.

The door to the break room was tightly closed, obscuring the view inside.

Lin Yupeng rewound the recording, 10:25... 10:30... 11:00...

He kept going until 12:10 when the door to the break room opened, and Yang Yue and Xiao Fen slowly walked out one after the other.

Yang

Yue looked much better than before, her eyes sparkling. Xiao Fen, however, was expressionless. She quickly opened the locked door, and the two sat in the office for a while before leaving together, presumably to eat.

Lin Yupeng calculated that they had been in the break room for almost two hours. What were they doing?

Logically, a man and a woman spending nearly two hours in a comfortable, luxurious lounge, given Yang Yue and Xiao Fen's boss-secretary relationship and the locked door, would likely be intimate inside. And given the time spent, a passionate encounter is quite possible.

However, Lin Yupeng felt something was off. Xiao Fen's expression didn't suggest she'd just experienced lovemaking; it was as if nothing had happened. Yang Yue, on the other hand, seemed full of energy. Thus, Lin Yupeng had another, rather alarming, theory.

To verify his deduction, Lin Yupeng manipulated a small flying insect into Yang Yue's lounge, sticking it to the corner of the wall, intending to film the scene inside all day.

Lin Yupeng kept watching until the "dot" appeared, then suddenly remembered he had to accompany Fang Na to look at apartments that afternoon. He quickly shut down his computer and went to the bedroom, where he saw Qin Xue just getting up, combing her hair in front of the mirror. Her pretty face showed a charming and alluring expression.

He smiled and walked to Qin Xue's side, placing his hand on her shoulder and softly saying, "Hehe, you're awake?"

Qin Xue nestled into Lin Yupeng's arms, her face flushed, and said shyly, "Honey, you're so amazing! You made me feel so good!"

Lin Yupeng chuckled, "Then I'll make you feel this good every day, okay?"

"You're so annoying!" Qin Xue rolled her eyes at him and said coquettishly.

Lin Yupeng chuckled and said, "Are you hungry? I'll go make you some food!"

"I'll do it!" Qin Xue said sweetly.

"No need, exams are coming up soon, you should study!" After saying this, Lin Yupeng turned and went straight to the kitchen. He tied on an apron, and with a clanging sound, the spatula hit the pan. In less than half an hour, he had prepared three dishes: one meat dish, one vegetable dish, and a soup—a balanced meal, delicious and visually appealing.

After lunch, Lin Yupeng told Qin Xue that he had to help a friend move and wouldn't be home for dinner, asking her to cook for herself.

Qin Xue readily agreed. Before leaving, Lin Yupeng gently kissed her forehead and departed.

Just as he stepped out of the building, Lin Yupeng glanced at his watch: 12 o'clock, one hour before his appointment with Fang Na. He quickly walked to the street corner, hailed a taxi, and headed straight for Songyang County, which is under the jurisdiction of Tianhan City.

All the way, Lin Yupeng urged the driver to hurry, and the car sped along, entering Songyang County in 50 minutes. They arrived at the Songyang County Public Security Bureau at exactly 1 p.m.

There stood Fang Na on the sidewalk in front of the bureau, a large suitcase on wheels beside her, her beautiful eyes looking around expectantly.

Lin Yupeng was immediately struck by her beauty upon seeing Fang Na again; he was instantly captivated.

Fang Na was now quite tall… She was 1.70 meters tall, 10 centimeters taller than before. She wore a light purple sleeveless top, revealing her snow-white, lotus-root-like arms. Her breasts were full and firm, now even more voluptuous and alluring, seemingly about to burst out of her clothes, enough to make one's nose bleed.

She wore denim shorts, her full buttocks protruding, stretching the shorts flat, her legs shapely and sexy. She looked like a completely different person from before.

Her skin was fair and rosy, like a blooming sun. The pollen from the blooming peonies was evenly sprinkled on it, making it delicate and translucent, almost translucent.

Lin Yupeng was secretly delighted. It seemed that his transformation of Fang Na's body had been successful. Fang Na now possessed a devilish figure, combined with her innate shy and reserved oriental beauty, making her an absolute beauty, her figure and beauty in no way inferior to Qin Xue's.

When Fang Na saw Lin Yupeng walking towards her, her pretty face immediately lit up with joy, and she waved to him from afar. As Lin Yupeng drew closer, seeing his burning gaze, her pretty face flushed, and her heart pounded wildly.

"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting!" Lin Yupeng said apologetically as he approached Fang Na.

"It's alright, I just arrived too!" Fang Na smiled brightly, a smile that could captivate anyone.

"I'll make a call, please wait a moment!" Lin Yupeng took out his phone and dialed Sun Liancheng's number.

After two rings, Sun Liancheng's voice came through: "Yupeng, have you arrived yet?" “

Teacher Sun, we’ve arrived. Where are you?” Lin Yupeng asked.

“I’m at the station. I’ll be right out. Just a moment!” Sun Liancheng said and hung up.

Five minutes later, the police station doors opened, and a middle-aged male police officer walked out. He was dressed in civilian clothes, tall and burly, with thick eyebrows and bright eyes that shone with a sharp light. He exuded an aura of righteousness that commanded respect. This was Sun Liancheng, Lin Yupeng’s junior high school teacher and now the captain of the criminal investigation team at Songyang County Public Security Bureau.

“Teacher Sun, you don’t even get a day off on Saturday!” Lin Yupeng greeted him with a chuckle.

“The station is so busy. I worked overtime half the night last night to make up for your situation and only managed to finish this afternoon.”

Sun Liancheng’s gaze fell on Fang Na beside Lin Yupeng, and Lin Yupeng immediately introduced her: “Teacher Sun, this is my friend who’s looking to rent a place. Her name is Fang Na!” After saying this, he pointed to Sun Liancheng and said to Fang Na, "

This is my junior high school PE teacher, now he's the criminal investigation captain of the county public security bureau, Sun Liancheng!"

Fang Na shook hands with Sun Liancheng, and she also addressed him as "Teacher Sun" like Lin Yupeng. Sun Liancheng turned to Lin Yupeng and asked in a low voice, "Is she your girlfriend?"

Although he deliberately lowered his voice, because he naturally had a loud voice, Fang Na heard him clearly, and her pretty face immediately turned bright red, as beautiful and charming as the sunset.

Lin Yupeng was afraid that she was too embarrassed, so he hurriedly explained, "She's a female friend!"

Upon hearing this, Sun Liancheng chuckled, his eyes seeming to say, "Kid, who are you trying to fool?" "Especially when he saw the way Fang Na looked at Lin Yupeng, her eyes were full of affection, gentle as water, and with the shyness unique to a young girl in love—they were clearly a couple.

Lin Yupeng also noticed the change in Fang Na's eyes and was secretly delighted. This further proved that his brain transplant of love into Fang Na had been successful; Fang Na had fallen in love with him.

"Teacher, let's see the apartment first!" Lin Yupeng got to the point.

"Okay, follow me!" Sun Liancheng smiled slightly and led Lin Yupeng and Fang Na for less than five minutes to the county public security bureau's family housing building he had mentioned.

(Chapter 92: Moving into the New House

) This family housing building was located behind the bureau's office building. It consisted of three buildings, connected to the public security bureau's perimeter wall. It had two entrances, front and back, and strangers had to register and show their ID cards at the security post. Security was extremely tight, and the safety level was very high; it was practically like living inside the public security bureau itself.

Lin Yupeng secretly breathed a sigh of relief; he was relieved that Fang Na could live in such a safe place.

Sun Liancheng led Lin Yupeng and Fang Na straight to the third floor, took out his key, and opened the door. Inside was a two-bedroom apartment with a living room and a kitchen on the balcony. The apartment had been carefully renovated and looked beautiful and spacious.

Lin Yupeng walked around the room and saw that the bed, wardrobe, and television in the bedroom looked quite new, and there was a sofa and coffee table in the living room.

He said to Sun Liancheng, "Teacher, this apartment is fully furnished and renovated. 500 yuan a month is really cheap!"

Sun Liancheng chuckled smugly, “Of course! This house used to belong to a leader in the bureau. He was later transferred to the city, and the organization allocated him a new house, so this house in the county has been vacant. I have a copy of the agreement faxed over by the landlord. Once you sign it, you can officially move in!” Lin

Yupeng chuckled dryly, “Teacher Sun, do you have any more houses like this that are good quality and inexpensive? Give me a few, I can make a little money!”

Sun Liancheng glared at him and said coldly, “You really think I’m a real estate agent? Let me tell you, there’s only one house this good. So many people are vying to rent it, and some are even offering high prices to buy it. If it weren’t for your sake, I would have sold it to someone else long ago!”

“Haha, thanks!” After saying that, Lin Yupeng turned to Fang Na and said, “You sign the contract with Teacher Sun, the sooner the better. Don’t let this cooked duck fly away. I’ll go look around some more!”

Fang Na smiled and nodded, then went to sign the lease agreement with Sun Liancheng. Lin Yupeng walked around the house a few more times, then came to the balcony and looked down at the rows of green belts where men, women, and children were playing and having fun in the park.

Far from the city's heavy industrial area, the air here is exceptionally fresh, and the sky is bluer than in the city; it's truly a wonderful place to live.

Fang Na and Sun Liancheng signed the contract and paid six months' rent, so they could officially move in.

Lin Yupeng asked Fang Na, "How's the house?"

Fang Na's pretty face was full of joy and gratitude as she smiled and said, "It's great! It's very close to the county hospital where I work, only a five-minute walk."

"Hehe, that's really good, even saving on transportation costs!" Lin Yupeng laughed heartily.

Then, Lin Yupeng, Fang Na, and Sun Liancheng cleaned and rearranged the house, instantly giving it a fresh new look.

After finishing his work, Lin Yupeng checked his watch; it was already past 4 PM. He said to Sun Liancheng, "Teacher, let's go eat. It's my treat. We can eat whatever we want! Don't worry about the cost."

Sun Liancheng chuckled dryly, "You're quite shrewd, aren't you? How much can you spend on food in this small county town?" He then glanced at Fang Na and said, "Let's ask your girlfriend's opinion first!"

He had always considered Fang Na Lin Yupeng's girlfriend, so his words naturally carried this connotation, making Fang Na blush. However, she didn't correct him, only blushing and saying sweetly, "Anything is fine, anything is fine!" Her gentle and shy demeanor, typical of a young girl, stirred Lin Yupeng's heart.

"It's so hot in the summer, let's skip the hot pot and just have stir-fries. Let's find a place with good air conditioning!" Sun Liancheng suggested.

Lin Yupeng and Aunt Fang immediately agreed. The three of them went to a Sichuan restaurant on the street where the Public Security Bureau was located, ordered four dishes, and ate and talked.

Lin Yupeng and Sun Liancheng reminisced about the past, especially their junior high school days when Sun Liancheng taught Lin Yupeng Tai Chi. Lin Yupeng even won first prize in a city-wide children's Tai Chi competition, a moment of great pride for them both. The memories were still vivid.

Fang Na sat quietly listening to their conversation, rarely speaking. Sometimes she would smile at something interesting, but she ate very little, mostly watching Lin Yupeng's animated talk, a warm, ambiguous feeling in her beautiful eyes.

"Teacher, I work in the city, I'm quite busy. Could you please take good care of Fang Na for me?" Lin Yupeng said. "Don't worry, I'll give you my phone number. Just call me if anything happens!" Sun Liancheng said this to Fang Na, then took out a pen and paper and wrote down his mobile and office numbers.

Fang Na looked at the paper with gratitude and said, "Thank you, Teacher Sun!"

"Hehe, you're welcome!" Sun Liancheng smiled slightly.

"Teacher Sun, how's the security situation in the county lately? Didn't two groups of thugs have a fight a couple of days ago? How did it go?" Lin Yupeng asked, picking up the thread.

"It's alright, it's been dealt with. Both groups were fighting over territory, and I arrested them both!" Sun Liancheng replied.

"Heh, the mafia!" Lin Yupeng said.

"You could say they were gangs with mafia-like characteristics. They fought over the right to purchase goods at the county's fruit and vegetable wholesale market! Such incidents are rare in my jurisdiction; this is the first time in over a year. This time, I'm determined to wipe out both gangs!" Sun Liancheng's eyes flashed with a sharp light as he spoke resolutely.

Just as he finished speaking, his phone rang. Sun Liancheng quickly answered, his expression growing increasingly serious. After hanging up, he said to Lin Yupeng and Fang Na, "Excuse me, I have to go now!"

"Teacher, what's the matter that's so urgent?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"A group of people are causing trouble at the bus station, I'm going to check it out!" Sun Liancheng said this and hurriedly left the restaurant.

Lin Yupeng and Fang Na finished their meal and left the restaurant together.

It was dusk, and the streets were mostly empty of cars and people, with many residents out enjoying the cool evening air. As

twilight deepened, the sun drew closer to the horizon, like a dying fireball, radiating its last rays of light and heat, turning the sky a deep crimson, with countless rays of light and auspicious colors.

"I heard there's a Clear Water River in the county, and the water is just as clear as its name suggests. Shall we go see it?" Fang Na suddenly looked up at Lin Yupeng and said softly.

"Sure, let's go see it!" Lin Yupeng nodded in agreement, and the two inquired along the way until they arrived at the Clear Water River.

This Clear Water River runs through Songyang County from north to south. The water is so clear that you can see right to the bottom. The county attaches great importance to the environmental protection of this river. There are no factories on either side of the river, and all domestic sewage discharge is prohibited. It is a relatively rare, pristine river.

Chapter Ninety-Three: It's All the Crabs' Fault

The riverbank was covered in lush green grass, surrounded by a row of trees. Scattered among the rocks of varying sizes added to its pristine beauty.

Many people sat on the riverbank, some on the ground, others on large blue stones, chatting and enjoying the cool air, while others swam and played in the river.

Lin Yupeng and Fang Na found a large blue stone close to the riverbank and sat down side by side. It was sunset, and the afterglow reflected on the river, creating a soft, rosy glow.

"The scenery here is so beautiful!" Fang Na exclaimed, her beautiful eyes sparkling with delight.

"Yes, after seeing the sea so often in the city, coming here to see this clear river is a real treat!" Lin Yupeng sighed.

If the sea is a stunningly beautiful woman, then this clear river is a gentle, charming young lady, alluring and captivating.

After saying that, Fang Na fell silent, her eyes frequently glancing at Lin Yupeng, her gaze unfocused, as if she wanted to say something but was too shy to speak.

Lin Yupeng noticed this and began chatting with Fang Na about all sorts of things, trying to ease her tension and make it easier for her to speak.

Finally, when Lin Yupeng talked about his university life, Fang Na mustered her courage and asked, "Brother Lin, did you have a girlfriend back then?" Her face flushed crimson, more vibrant than the sunset, radiating shyness.

"No, I wasn't even 15 when I went to university. All the girls I met were four or five years older than me. They all treated me like a little brother and were very kind to me. But back then, relationships between older women and younger men weren't popular, so I never had a girlfriend."

"You're so outstanding, whoever gets to be your girlfriend will definitely be happy!" Fang Na said softly, her face radiating tenderness.

When a woman speaks such tenderly to a man, it at least indicates that she has feelings for him. Lin Yupeng knew this, of course. He decided to press his advantage, staring intently at Fang Na, and softly said, "You can also have this kind of happiness!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Na immediately lowered her head in embarrassment, her delicate white hands fidgeting with the hem of her dress. Her pretty face was as red as a bright red cloth, even her ears and neck were flushed. Her cherry lips trembled alluringly, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't utter a word.

Lin Yupeng suddenly felt an urge to kiss her, but he restrained himself. Fang Na was different from Qin Xue, after all. Although he had modified her brain and replaced Fei Wenchao's original position, Fang Na's personality hadn't changed. Going too far and provoking her disgust for him would be troublesome. The human brain is complex; perhaps a single thought could turn love into hate.

Besides, Lin Yupeng felt that enjoying the process was also important. So, he intended to open his arms and embrace Fang Na, but his hands changed direction mid-air, gently pressing on her fragrant shoulder. His gaze was intense as he said, "Why don't you tell me what's on your mind?"

Lin Yupeng's hand touched Fang Na's fair and smooth skin, and Fang Na trembled slightly. Her beautiful eyes shimmered with a hazy, soft light as she murmured, "I'm scared! I don't know what's wrong with me lately, my mind is a mess… I always dream about you at night, and I think about you when I'm working during the day!"

"Be my girlfriend!" Lin Yupeng gazed at her affectionately and said earnestly.

Fang Na trembled upon hearing this, lowered her head, and dared not look at him. After a long while, she blushed and said softly, "Can I think about it? My heart is really in turmoil!"

Lin Yupeng laughed and said, "Okay, I'll wait for you." He decided to play hard to get first, knowing that Fang Na wouldn't be able to resist for long.

However, Fang Na did not immediately agree to be his girlfriend. According to Li Ke's theory, when a person's love zone only contains one person, she can accept all of that person's demands without hesitation. Fang Na's behavior differed from Li Ke's deduction, so where was the problem? Could there be someone else in Fang Na's love zone?

Lin Yupeng thought for a moment and came to the answer: the person remaining in Fang Na's love zone was Fei Wenchao! Because the memory decryption device only had a 70% success rate in decrypting her love zone, the remaining 30% of undecrypted brain cells must still contain information about Fei Wenchao, but there was just no opportunity for it to fully surface.

He recalled Gao Lin mentioning Fei Wenchao that day, and Fang Na saying his name sounded familiar, which confirmed his deduction.

"Ah! It hurts!" Fang Na's exclamation interrupted Lin Yupeng's thoughts.

"What's wrong?" He looked at the pale-faced Fang Na beside him and asked with concern.

"My left foot...it feels like something's biting it! I can't look!" Fang Na's pretty face was filled with terror, her clear eyes misting over, making her look pitiful.

"Don't be afraid, bear with it, let me see!"

Lin Yupeng bent down, his gaze falling on Fang Na's left foot. She was wearing pink high-heeled sandals and flesh-colored stockings. He saw that her left big toe and left ankle were being clamped by the two front claws of a crab!

Summer is the crab's growth season; although they don't grow as fast as in autumn, they're still quite large.

"That wretched crab! Is it jealous of me and deliberately climbed ashore to cause trouble?" Lin Yupeng thought to himself, annoyed. But Fang Na's foot was being pinched, and tears welled in her eyes from the pain. He had to get the crab's claws to loosen.

Generally, a crab's claws are its defensive weapon. If it's being pinched, it means it's defending itself and trying to escape. If you try to forcefully pry open the crab's claws, it will only make things worse. The correct approach is to let all eight of the crab's legs touch the ground so it will release its grip and run away.

Therefore, Lin Yupeng picked up Fang Na, who was sitting on the bluestone, and helped her sit on the grass. He gently comforted her, saying, "Don't be afraid! It's just a small crab. Relax your left leg as much as possible and stretch it out!"

Lin Yupeng directed Fang Na to sit on the grass with her left leg straight, allowing the crab's eight claws to touch the ground. After a while, the crab released its claws from her foot and quickly disappeared into the grass.

"How are you? Are you alright?" Lin Yupeng asked with concern. Fang Na forced back the tears that were about to spill, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing!"

"Let me see!" Lin Yupeng was still worried, so he gently lifted her left foot. Fang Na struggled slightly, but then let him do as he pleased.

Lin Yupeng took off her high heels and removed the stockings that had been torn by the crab claws. He saw that Fang Na's ivory-white toes and ankle each had a claw mark, slightly oozing blood. The wounds weren't deep and could be easily treated.

He breathed a sigh of relief, smiled slightly, and said, "It's nothing. Do you have disinfectant and bandages at home?"

Fang Na blushed as Lin Yupeng held her delicate foot and softly replied, "Yes!"

Chapter Ninety-Four: Reluctant Parting

"Then let's go home!" Lin Yupeng put Fang Na's shoes and stockings back on, and the two walked home side by side.

Fang Na's left foot was injured by the crab claws, and she walked with a slight limp. Lin Yupeng supported her arm, appearing very intimate. To outsiders, they looked like a happy and sweet couple.

Back home, Fang Na found some disinfectant and bandages. Being a nurse, she was naturally skilled at treating wounds.

Lin Yupeng chatted with her for a while longer before getting up to leave. Fang Na saw him off to the stairwell.

"I'll come see you when I have time!" Lin Yupeng smiled.

"Okay," Fang Na nodded gently, watching Lin Yupeng leave, her pretty face full of reluctance.

Lin Yupeng returned home after 8 pm. Qin Xue was studying in her study. Seeing him return, she smiled and asked softly, "You're back! Have you eaten?"

"Yes, I have. Hehe, helping someone move doesn't mean I don't get a meal!" Lin Yupeng laughed heartily; actually, he had paid for the meal.

Qin Xue didn't ask who he had helped move and continued studying. Her grades were consistently among the best in her class.

Lin Yupeng tutored her for a while when his phone rang. Not wanting to disturb Qin Xue's studies, he quickly went to a corner of the living room and answered.

The call was from his friend Ruan Yihong.

"Yupeng, I heard you joined Tianqiong Group?" Ruan Yihong asked bluntly.

"Yeah, you're really well-informed, no wonder you work in criminal investigation!" Lin Yupeng chuckled dryly.

"Stop being cheeky! You went to Tianqiong Group without even telling me! My uncle has been asking me several times when the director I found for him is coming to report!" Ruan Yihong scolded playfully.

"Hehe, sorry, I've been too busy lately and forgot to tell you. Please apologize to my uncle for me, and I'll treat him to dinner another day to apologize!" Lin Yupeng said apologetically.

"Alright, do you really think Tianqiong Group is a good fit for your career?" Ruan Yihong asked.

"Yes, it's the largest private enterprise in the city, with broad prospects!" Lin Yupeng said firmly, but he sensed something was off about Ruan Yihong's words.

"Oh, then I wish you a bright future!" Ruan Yihong said before hanging up.

Lin Yupeng noticed the sarcasm in her last sentence. Was she still annoyed that he hadn't informed her about her new job offer, or was there another meaning? The way a criminal investigator thinks is truly unique! Thinking

of criminal investigators reminded him of his teacher, Sun Liancheng. That evening at dinner, he had mentioned stopping a group of thugs causing trouble. He wondered how things were going, so he immediately called Sun Liancheng.

"Teacher Sun, how did those two groups of thugs handle the situation?" Lin Yupeng asked with concern.

"They've all been detained. Two groups of unlicensed taxi drivers were fighting over customers, each gathering their own group," Sun Liancheng replied.

"Oh, Teacher, how are you? Were you injured while arresting them?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"I'm fine. Don't you know how good I am? Only ten people, a piece of cake!" Sun Liancheng said smugly.

"Hehe, that's good. I'm hanging up now, goodbye teacher!"

Lin Yupeng hung up the phone and went back to his study to tutor Qin Xue, not going to bed until very late. Because Qin Xue was taking her exam the day after tomorrow, Lin Yupeng decided to temporarily refrain from sharing a room with her for the next few days, so that she could maintain peak physical and mental condition for the exam.

"Hehe, wait till you finish your exam, see how I deal with you!" Lin Yupeng grinned mischievously at Qin Xue.

The Chinese language is rich in meaning; the word "deal with" used here evokes a range of thoughts. Qin Xue's face flushed instantly, she glared at Lin Yupeng, and said shyly, "You're so annoying!"

The next day was Sunday, Qin Xue's last day of intensive review before the exam. Lin Yupeng became her logistics manager, taking care of all three meals a day, providing a balanced diet with a focus on brain-boosting foods such as spinach, salmon, peanuts, beef liver, and corn.

The day passed quickly. With Lin Yupeng, a double PhD, tutoring her, Qin Xue's review efficiency greatly improved, and she felt much more confident about the exam starting the next day.

On Monday morning, Qin Xue and Lin Yupeng got up early. After breakfast, Qin Xue went to school for her exam, while Lin Yupeng went to Tianqiong Group.

Xiao Ru always arrived earlier than Lin Yupeng. She was combing her long, beautiful eyelashes in front of the mirror. Reflected in the mirror, she saw Lin Yupeng and immediately gave him a sweet smile, saying, "Good morning, Minister Lin!"

"Hehe, good morning!" Lin Yupeng glanced at her, returned to his seat, and opened his computer to browse the news.

Work hours began, and then the phone rang. It was Yang Yue calling.

"Yupeng, I have two things to tell you!" Yang Yue said.

Lin Yupeng hummed in response, waiting for him to continue.

Yang Yue paused for a moment, then continued, "The first thing, the matter you asked me to handle a few days ago, is progressing well. The president of Tianhan Medical University, Lü Yihui, has agreed to reinstate Qin Xue's student status next semester."

"Oh, thank you so much, President Yang! I'll treat you to dinner another day to thank you in person!" Lin Yupeng's tone was full of gratitude, but inwardly he thought, "This Yang Yue really has considerable influence; he and Lü Yihui must have some kind of special relationship!"

"Hehe, it's nothing! The second thing is to inform you that you need to attend a meeting at 9:00 AM in the group's main conference room, room 1021. This is a meeting for the group's middle and senior management. Remember to bring your secretary, Xiaoru, to help you take notes!"

"Okay! Thank you!" Lin Yupeng didn't ask about the meeting's content; it was unnecessary. He had to attend anyway, and he'd find out when he got there.

At 9:00 AM, Lin Yupeng and Xiaoru arrived at the meeting on time. Xiaoru brought a notebook, ready to take notes for him.

The large conference room, which could accommodate 500 people, was already nearly half full. Each seat had a nameplate in front of it, and everyone was seated accordingly, much like a large government meeting. The further forward the seat, the higher the rank.

Lin Yupeng sat in the second row, seat number 2, with a seat reserved for his secretary next to him. He glanced around and noticed that there were no secretary seats after the fourth row, indicating that the leaders weren't high-ranking enough to warrant one.

He also spotted several familiar faces, such as Tang Gang in the third row, and Vice Presidents Tong Yu and Yang Yue on the stage.

After a while, Zhang Yueran, president of Tianqiong Group, and Lang Zikun, director of the president's office, entered the conference room one after the other and sat on the stage. Someone started clapping, and the audience immediately joined in, the applause becoming enthusiastic.

Zhang Yueran stood up, nodded and smiled at everyone, signaling the applause to stop and the meeting to officially begin.

Chapter Ninety-Five: The Muay Thai Master

This meeting was chaired by Lang Zikun, Director of the President's Office. First, President Zhang Yueran spoke, summarizing the main content of this meeting for middle and senior management: introducing the group's future development direction and long-term corporate plan.

Then, Ye Qiujian, Minister of the Corporate Planning Department, took the stage to elaborate on the general outline proposed by Zhang Yueran.

Ye Qiujian appeared to be around twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, with regular features, piercing eyes, and a sharp, incisive speaking style. His thinking was meticulous, his language highly logical, and his word choice and sentence structure were elegant, giving the impression of a shrewd and capable man.

Ye Qiujian's speech was long, lasting a full two hours, passionate and eloquent. The leaders in the audience displayed varying expressions; some listened intently, nodding frequently at points of understanding; others seemed drowsy and listless, probably due to the previous night's activities; still others whispered and discussed amongst themselves.

After Ye Qiujian finished speaking, President Zhang Yueran gave a concluding speech, which lasted half an hour.

When Zhang Yueran finished speaking, the audience burst into applause. The applause was partly to support him, but it was also mixed with the joy that the long meeting was about to end. After all, some people had been sitting for a whole morning and were getting restless.

Unexpectedly, no sooner had Zhang Yueran finished speaking than Tong Yu, standing beside him, grabbed the microphone and, in his shrill, hoarse voice like a crow's caw, said, "I'd like to add a couple more sentences!"

Some people showed impatience, but Tong Yu seemed oblivious, and began his supplementary remarks. Though he called it "two sentences," he actually spoke over two hundred sentences, taking more than half an hour to finish.

After Tong Yu's speech, it was lunchtime, and Lang Zikun adjourned the meeting.

Lin Yupeng and Xiao Ru went to the group's restaurant for lunch and began their afternoon work.

Xiao Ru was still incredibly busy, while Lin Yupeng remained idle. He wandered around the other departments and found everyone diligently carrying out their tasks; he was the most idle person in the entire department.

The deputy minister, Wei Qifeng, was still absent, and he also noticed that more than a dozen other people in the department were not in their offices. He asked He Dan, who replied that Wei Qifeng had taken people out to buy equipment.

Near the end of the workday, Lin Yupeng received a call from Yang Yue.

"Brother Lin, are you free tonight? Let's grab dinner and hang out some fun!" Yang Yue's tone was very enthusiastic.

"Sure, where shall we go this time?" Lin Yupeng asked with a smile. He had already decided to try to get close to Yang Yue, quickly find out his background, and investigate the mastermind behind framing him and manipulating Lü Yihui and Han Yun.

"Hehe, let's go eat first, then I'll take you to see a match!" Yang Yue laughed.

"A match? What kind of match?" Lin Yupeng asked curiously.

"A wrestling match, but I guarantee it'll be a format you've never seen before, it'll be quite novel, you'll see when we get there!" Yang Yue deliberately kept Lin Yupeng in suspense, wanting to whet his appetite.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yupeng thought to himself, "How novel can wrestling be? It's just two people fighting close-quarters, scoring based on the quality of their moves and how they fall, the one with the higher score wins, that's all." "

It was time to leave work. Lin Yupeng left his office and saw Yang Yue's Mercedes-Benz parked downstairs.

Lin Yupeng got in. Besides him and Yang Yue, a man in black, wearing tinted sunglasses, with dark skin, a burly build, and bulging muscles, sat in the passenger seat—clearly a skilled fighter.

Lin Yupeng observed him closely and realized the man's features didn't resemble Chinese; he seemed to be from Southeast Asia.

Sure enough, Yang Yue pointed to the burly man and said, 'Brother Lin, let me introduce you. This is my personal bodyguard, also an employee of our group's security department. His name is Kuban. He's trained in Muay Thai and even won a silver medal in a Muay Thai competition in Thailand!'

Hearing this, Lin Yupeng, sitting in the back, immediately extended his hand to the passenger seat and shook hands with Kuban.

Kuban's hand was like a fan, calloused from training. He grinned at Lin Yupeng and said in broken Chinese, 'You… hello!'"

Yang Yue started the car and asked Lin Yupeng as he drove, "Brother Lin, what do you want to eat tonight?" "

Anything's fine with me, as long as I can eat it!" Lin Yupeng laughed heartily.

"Haha, Brother Lin, you're really funny. What to eat? We really need to think about that!" Yang Yue pondered.

The car stopped at a red light. Yang Yue glanced at Kuban beside him, his eyes lighting up. He said to Lin Yupeng, "I heard a new upscale Thai restaurant opened in Nanhua District. Let's go try it!"

Lin Yupeng nodded and smiled slightly, agreeing.

Yang Yue drove to Nanhua District and went straight to the Thai restaurant he mentioned, called Jinman Thai Restaurant.

The three of them got out of the car, pushed open the door, and saw that the hall was packed with people, with some even queuing up to eat. The business seemed to be booming.

A waitress in a Thai gold-threaded suit greeted him with a sweet smile and politely asked, "Sir

, how many are in your party?" "Three. Do you have a private room?" Yang Yue replied.

"I'm sorry, sir, all the private rooms are full. You'll have to wait a while if you wish to dine!" the waitress

said with a smile. "What? No room to eat? Business is booming!" Yang Yue's face showed displeasure as he coldly mocked.

"Sir, I'm sorry, it's peak season right now. You'll need to make a reservation in advance if you wish to dine!" the waitress patiently explained with a professional smile.

"Get your general manager! Let him speak to me!" Yang Yue snapped coldly.

"Sir, can you speak to me? I can relay your message?"

"Bah! You're not qualified! Quickly, get your general manager here!" Yang Yue's anger flared, his face turning stern as he shouted sharply.

The waitress hesitated for a moment, then saw Yang Yue's bodyguard, Cuban, suddenly shove her with his large hand. The shove seemed effortless,

but it sent the waitress staggering back several steps, barely managing to steady herself against the wall.

"Go!" Cuban uttered, his face fierce, his joints cracking as he shouted.

The waitress was terrified; she realized these men were powerful and she'd run into trouble. She quickly turned and ran towards the general manager's office.

Lin Yupeng glanced at the furious Yang Yue, thinking to himself, "This Yang Yue really knows how to put on airs! If there's no place, just go somewhere else. Why bother arguing with the general manager? I'll see how he tries to cause trouble today!"

(Chapter 96: A Show of Power at the Restaurant)

A while later, the restaurant's general manager strode into the lobby. He was dressed in a sharp suit, in his forties, with slicked-back hair, a kind and amiable appearance.

"Are you the general manager of this restaurant?" Yang Yue asked, pulling out a cigarette. Cuban immediately lit it for him.

"Yes! My surname is Guo. This is my business card!"

Yang Yue took the card, glanced at it, and said coldly, "Oh, General Manager Guo Kang!" He then said to Cuban, "Show him my business card!"

Cuban nodded, took Yang Yue's card from his pocket, and handed it to Guo Kang.

Guo Kang took it and looked at it, his expression changing drastically. His smile widened tenfold, and he said with a fawning grin, "So you're General Manager Yang from Tianqiong Group! It's an honor to meet

you here!" "Enough with the small talk. I want to have a meal here. Get me a private room! Hurry up!" Yang Yue interrupted.

"This..." Guo Kang hesitated for a moment, then said apologetically, "Mr. Yang, this is difficult. The customers in the private rooms all booked a day ago. How about this, please sit in my office for a while. After everyone has finished eating, I'll invite you over. This meal is on me!"

Guo Kang, being a businessman, was giving Yang Yue a lot of face. But Yang Yue immediately sneered and said, "I can't wait! Tell the people in whichever private room arrived first to pay their bill and leave! Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

As he spoke, he stuck the half-smoked cigar onto Guo Kang's business card, instantly burning a large hole in it.

Lin Yupeng saw Yang Yue's eyes flash with a fierce light. He hadn't expected that the usually warm and amiable Yang Yue could be so intimidating when he got angry.

Guo Kang trembled with fear, his face turning ashen. At this moment, Kuban grabbed him by the neck with his left hand and lifted him up like a chicken, coldly saying, "Go now!" Guo

Kang, his face flushed and neck bulging, struggled and kicked. Yang Yue gestured to Cuban to let go, and Cuban finally released him. Guo Kang coughed a few times, clutching his neck, and finally gave in, saying respectfully to Yang Yue, "Okay, I'll go clear out the private room right away!" His smile was more like a grimace.

After a while, two men and two women followed Guo Kang from the second floor to the lobby on the first floor. Guo Kang kept smiling and saying apologetic things: "I'm so sorry, this meal is on me!"

The two men and two women, however, kept cursing. The two men were about twenty-one or twenty-two years old, one with an afro and the other with dyed red hair, clearly young men who had been involved in organized crime. The two girls beside them were dressed in trendy and flashy clothes, heavily made up, typical delinquent girls.

"Damn! Who the hell is so arrogant? I want to see for myself!" the man with the afro said angrily.

"Yeah! You tell me, and I'll chop his head off!" The woman next to the man with the afro pressed Guo Kang for

answers. Guo Kang kept pleading. The group approached Yang Yue, Cuban, and Lin Yupeng. The red-haired man's small, round eyes sized up Yang Yue a few times before turning to Guo Kang and asking, "Is it them?"

Guo Kang didn't answer; the tense look on his face was the best answer.

Yang Yue sneered, "Yes, it's us! Who were you cursing just now?"

The man with the afro's eyes widened. He spat out the toothpick in his mouth and shouted angrily, "Damn it! We were cursing you, so what? Dressed all high and mighty, trying to act like gangsters? I've seen plenty!" "

The two sides were on the verge of war, seemingly ready to fight at any moment. Some of the timid diners in the hall quickly paid their bills and left, while the rest stared wide-eyed, waiting to see what would happen.

Lin Yupeng thought to himself, 'These two groups of men and women are in for it…'

Sure enough, Yang Yue's Thai bodyguard, Kuban, suddenly shot out two dark figures with a sharp glint in his eyes, radiating murderous intent. Even through his sunglasses, he looked incredibly intimidating. He suddenly reached out with both hands!

Two black shadows flashed by, and in the blink of an eye, the necks of the two men—the one with the afro and the one with the red hair—were simultaneously gripped by Kuban, their feet leaving the ground, their eyes rolling back in their heads.

Kuban, as expected of a Muay Thai expert, was indeed lightning-fast!

The two young women, however, were not to be outdone and pounced on Kuban together. Kuban's burly body swayed..." He flung the afro-haired and red-haired men away, sending them crashing to the ground.

Then, he unleashed a flurry of kicks, two loud thuds followed by two piercing screams. The two young women, both struck in the abdomen, collapsed to the ground in agony, vomiting their food.

From grabbing the two men by the neck and throwing them aside to kicking the two women down, the entire sequence took less than three seconds. His speed and the ruthlessness of his moves were truly chilling.

Lin Yupeng realized that Cuban had held back, using less than 30% of his strength. Had he used his full power, the four men would likely be dead.

Yang Yue smiled coldly and said to Guo Kang, the general manager of the restaurant, "General Manager Guo, take us to a private room!"

"Yes, yes, follow me!" Guo Kang was terrified, leaving the mess in the lobby to the front desk manager.

As Lin Yupeng walked, he thought to himself, "This Yang Yue, he's really arrogant!"

The three of them sat down in the private room. Guo Kang personally served them the menu, which Yang Yue then passed to Lin Yupeng.

Lin Yupeng glanced at the menu, ordered lemon pork slices, and returned it to Yang Yue.

Yang Yue took the menu and ordered over a dozen dishes, all the restaurant's specialties and the most expensive; the total cost was at least two thousand yuan.

"Let's start with these! And three bottles of XO!" Yang Yue ordered.

Soon, the food and drinks were served. Yang Yue and Lin Yupeng chatted casually while eating, while Kuban remained silent with a cold expression.

The Thai food at this restaurant was indeed very authentic, with vibrant colors and rich, spicy flavors.

After the meal, Yang Yue paid the bill, and Guo Kang saw the three of them to the door, looking at them as if they were being sent away with a plague.

The three got into the car, and Yang Yue asked Lin Yupeng, "How was the food?"

Lin Yupeng replied, "Not bad, the dishes were quite delicious!"

Yang Yue said, "Hmm, I thought it was good too. I'll buy this restaurant in a few days!"

Lin Yupeng smiled slightly and said nothing more. Yang Yue continued, "That was just to give them a warning, so there will be less resistance when we negotiate the acquisition later. I think I can take over that restaurant for 2 million!"

Lin Yupeng thought to himself, "Judging from the decoration of that restaurant, it probably won't be less than 3 million. Is Yang Yue going to forcibly acquire it? What's the difference between him and the mafia?"

Yang Yue drove at breakneck speed, taking Lin Yupeng and Cuban to a place called "Zunlong Entertainment Club" and stopping the car.

Cuban got out first, took a black leather case from the trunk, and then walked into the entertainment club with Yang Yue and Lin Yupeng, who got out later.

Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Beauty Wrestling Match

As Lin Yupeng, Yang Yue, and Cuban entered the Zunlong Entertainment Club, two waiters greeted them. One of them, beaming, said, "Mr. Yang, welcome! Please come in!" His tone was extremely respectful, indicating that Yang Yue was a regular customer.

The first floor was a disco, where a group of men and women danced to energetic music, their screams mingling with the music, creating an exhilarating atmosphere. Lin Yupeng noticed several couples shaking their heads rapidly, their expressions glazed over, as if they were on ecstasy.

"Take us to the second floor to watch the match!" Yang Yue ordered.

"Yes, please!" The waiter led Yang Yue, Lin Yupeng, and Cuban to the second floor.

The second floor was a large hall of nearly 300 square meters, with a standard wrestling ring in the center, its color, size, and lighting exactly like those used in international wrestling matches.

Below the ring were rows of sofas and chairs, with coffee tables in front, accommodating over a hundred people.

Led by a waiter, Yang Yue and Lin Yupeng sat on the sofas in the first row, the closest to the ring and offering the best view.

Cuban didn't sit down, remaining standing beside Yang Yue, carrying his black leather suitcase, his expression cold and stern, his sharp gaze piercing through his sunglasses, making it difficult to meet his eyes.

Waiters kept placing fruit platters, snacks, cold drinks, and red wine on the coffee table in front of Lin Yupeng and Yang Yue. Lin Yupeng glanced around and saw that the area was nearly 90% full, mostly middle-aged men, clearly successful in their careers, some with bodyguards standing around them.

After a while, three women walked onto the ring: one appeared to be a referee, and the other two were the fighters, one in a red uniform and the other in a green uniform, both lightweight, weighing less than 10 kilograms.

Looking at the two female fighters, Lin Yupeng's heart skipped a beat! They were absolutely stunning, exuding beauty and charm. Even their oversized sportswear couldn't conceal their voluptuous figures. With such natural beauty, they could easily become famous as models or celebrities. Yet, they chose to be wrestlers, a truly baffling choice.

The two wrestling beauties, one in red and one in green, stood on the stage, their beautiful eyes sparkling with allure. They circled the ring, frequently bowing to the audience, casting flirtatious glances, and giving them seductive looks. This didn't look like a wrestling match at all; it was clearly a beauty pageant!

After their performance, a dozen or so waiters appeared, each carrying a tray—one empty, the other filled with red and green chips.

One of the waiters approached Yang Yue, bowed, and smiled, asking, "Sir, would you like to buy chips?"

Yang Yue turned to Lin Yupeng and asked, "Brother Lin, look at the two wrestlers on stage, one red and one green. Which one do you think will win?"

Lin Yupeng thought to himself, "Ugh! Another gambling game, similar to the one at the Meidu Hotel, with beautiful women taking off their clothes. This one looks a bit more exciting!"

He smiled slightly and said, "I can't tell. I don't know much about wrestling!"

"Haha! Actually, how many people can really tell? It's just for fun, you can just guess!" Yang Yue smiled.

"Then I'll choose the green one!" Lin Yupeng replied casually.

"Haha, you have the same taste as me!" After saying that, Yang Yue turned to Cuban and said, "Let's buy 20 chips worth 10,000 each first!"

Lin Yupeng's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this: "Buying 200,000 yuan worth of chips in one go, Yang Yue is really generous!"

Cuban nodded, and with a snap, opened the black safe he was carrying. Inside, neatly stacked rows of RMB were visible, totaling about 500,000 yuan. He took out 200,000 yuan and placed it on the waiter's empty tray. Then, he took out several 10,000 yuan worth of chips from another tray held by the waiter and placed them on the coffee table in front of Yang Yue.

The chips came in three denominations: 100, 1,000, and 10,000 yuan. Yang Yue bought the largest denomination.

The waiter left, and a waitress greeted him with a sweet smile, bowing and asking, "How much are you betting, sir?"

She was only wearing a silver-white halter-neck bra, and it wasn't worn tightly. When she bent over, her fair breasts could be seen.

Yang Yue took three chips from the coffee table and stuffed them into the beautiful waitress's bra, chuckling dryly, "Green wins!"

He then picked up two more chips and handed them to Lin Yupeng, saying, "Brother Lin, wanna place a bet?"

Lin Yupeng smiled and waved his hand in polite refusal. Yang Yue then casually stuffed the two chips into the waitress's bra; his bet had reached a staggering 50,000 yuan.

The waitress giggled, took out her pen and paper, wrote down the number of chips Yang Yue had bet and the direction of his bet, then pulled the three chips out of her bra and turned to leave.

Lin Yupeng glanced around and saw many people betting, some large, some small, but none exceeding Yang Yue's bet.

After a while, the referee on the stage received the signal and announced the start of the match.

All the lights in the hall shone on the stage, while the audience below remained quite dark.

On the stage, two stunningly beautiful women, one in red and one in green, were ready to compete under the referee's direction. Once the match began, the audience erupted in laughter. This was hardly wrestling; it was more like a brawl between shrewish women. They were scratching, pulling, grabbing, punching, and kicking—using every trick in the book to take each other down. Luckily, they were all wearing leather gloves, so even if their faces were scratched, they wouldn't get scratched. They also seemed to know their limits, rarely attacking each other's faces. The cheers and

shouts from the audience were deafening, with some screaming and whistling. After a fierce struggle, the woman in red used a hook leg, and the woman in green, caught off guard, had her left leg hooked, losing her balance and falling backward.

The woman in red pressed her advantage, straddling the woman in green and starting to tear at her clothes. According to the rules of formal wrestling, this was absolutely forbidden, but the referee didn't care, watching with a smile. In reality, this wasn't a serious competition; its purpose was nothing more than gambling and entertainment.

The woman in red had the upper hand, and those who had bet on her to win immediately became excited, clapping and cheering. Those who bet on the woman in green to win were equally enthusiastic, encouraging her as well.

Yang Yue, sipping his red wine while watching the exciting match, seemed unconcerned when he saw his bet on the woman in green was losing. He picked up a glass of red wine and said to Lin Yupeng, "Brother Lin, let's have a drink!"

Lin Yupeng picked up a wine glass half-filled with red wine, lightly clinked glasses with Yang Yue, and downed his drink in one gulp.

Immediately, the Thai bodyguard, Kuban, grabbed a bottle of red wine and filled both of their glasses.

(Chapter 98: A Sensual Scene

) At this moment, the red-clad beauty on stage, in a struggle, ripped a piece of the green-clad beauty's top, revealing her white bra.

The red-clad beauty pressed her advantage, reaching out to tear at the green-clad beauty's bra, who struggled desperately. The audience below became even more excited, some shouting from operatic to pop, then from pop to rock.

Suddenly, the green-clad beauty gritted her teeth, let out a sharp cry, and with a thrust of her slender waist, flipped the red-clad beauty off her. Then she straddled the red-clad beauty and began tearing at her clothes.

The two beauties tumbled and rolled on the stage, one on top, the other on bottom, tearing and pulling at each other, pieces of clothing flying everywhere. After the first round, their clothes only covered about fifty percent of their bodies.

Lin Yupeng summarized: "The wrestling here is a mixture of gambling and pornographic entertainment."

After a short break, the second round began. The rules of the wrestling here are relatively simple: three rounds, each lasting five minutes. The number of times the wrestlers land on their backs is counted after three rounds, and the one with the fewest back-to-back landings wins. If the two wrestlers have the same number of landings, an extra round is required.

The second round continued the excitement of the first round, with the two beautiful wrestlers tearing off less and less clothing. Overall, the woman in green had a slight advantage.

The most exciting and crucial third round began. Now, the two women's clothes could barely cover 30% of their bodies.

The woman in red had her upper body completely ripped off, wearing only a white bra. Her sculpted shoulders, snow-white arms, and flat stomach were exposed. Her sports pants were torn below the knees, revealing her exquisitely sculpted legs.

Looking at the woman in green, her upper body was torn into a vest, and her lower body was almost completely ripped apart, revealing her green thong to the audience. Her long, shapely, and snow-white legs were exposed to the crowd.

The material of their clothes seemed to be of very poor quality, tearing and ripping at the slightest pull—it was practically made for this kind of erotic competition.
The two beauties on stage had been locked in a fierce struggle for two rounds, their bodies glistening with sweat, looking incredibly alluring.
After the third round began, the two beauties tentatively pulled at each other a few times before closing in and embracing, each trying to take the other down first.

After a brief struggle, the woman in green used a powerful backflip, throwing the woman in red to the ground. A gasp rippled through the audience—the involuntary gasps of those who had bet on the woman in red to win.

A smug smile appeared on Yang Yue's face. Although Lin Yupeng didn't know much about wrestling, he could tell that the woman in green had a slight advantage. The

woman in green immediately straddled the woman in red, grabbed her rising bra, and pulled it down with all her might.

Amidst the excited screams of the crowd below, a crisp snap was heard, and the woman in red cried out as her bra was completely ripped off by the woman in green, revealing her snow-white, pink, full, and erect breasts. Then, the woman in green threw the bra off the stage.

A commotion broke out in the audience, and several people actually rushed to grab the bra, bursting into laughter.

The woman in green went further, starting to tear at the woman in red's lower body, which was now only half-length in her sports pants. The woman in red struggled fiercely, desperately holding onto her last line of defense.

Rip... rip... pieces of red fabric flew everywhere. The woman in red was exhausted, her lower body pants were torn apart, revealing her red underwear.

"Tear it off! Tear it off!" the men below the stage began to jeer.

The woman in green smiled sweetly at everyone, her beautiful eyes gleaming, and reached out to tear off the last piece of clothing covering her, throwing it off the stage.

Another scramble ensued, screams and laughter filling the air, the atmosphere in the arena reaching its climax.

The woman in red on the stage—actually, she could no longer be called a woman in red, as her opponent had stripped her completely naked. Now, she lay naked on the stage, all the lights in the hall focused on her, exposing all her private parts to countless greedy gazes. Her proudly erect breasts, round navel, and the dark patch of pubic hair below her abdomen all stimulated the visual nerves of the crowd.

The third round of the match ended, and the referee immediately announced the result—the woman in green won. Those who bet on her to win had made a profit.

A waiter handed a scarf from below the stage, which the naked woman immediately took and wrapped around herself, walking off the stage with the woman in green.

Then a waiter walked onto the stage and announced the betting results and the winner's share.

He first announced that Yang Yue had placed the highest bet in this round, making him the bookmaker. Besides getting his entire bet back, he would also receive 30% of the green team's total winnings, amounting to 185,000 yuan.

The remaining 20% of the green team's winnings would go to the referees and players' appearance fees and the organizer's commission. The final 50% would be distributed among the other green team members according to their respective bets.

In this match, Yang Yue earned three times his bet, taking the largest share, but also bearing the greatest risk.

A waiter placed chips representing 185,000 yuan on the coffee table in front of Yang Yue, and also returned the 50,000 yuan he had just bet.

Yang Yue looked at the chips on the table and asked the waiter, "What's the price for today's contestants?"

The waiter replied, "20,000 each!"

Yang Yue nodded, handed the waiter the 50,000 chips on the coffee table, and said, "Call them over. The remaining 10,000 is a tip!"

The waiter immediately smiled and nodded, then turned and left with the chips.

A short while later, the two beautiful female wrestlers from the ring, still wearing their red and green competition outfits, gracefully walked to Yang Yue's side and sweetly greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Yang!"

Then, the two women nestled on either side of Yang Yue, one massaging his shoulders and the other rubbing his legs.

Yang Yue pushed the woman in red towards Lin Yupeng, saying, "Go keep him company!"

The woman in red immediately sat down next to Lin Yupeng. The sofa chair wasn't wide to begin with, and the two of them sitting together seemed a bit cramped.

"Brother, what's your surname?" the woman in red asked Lin Yupeng with a coquettish smile.

"Lin!" Lin Yupeng replied calmly. He felt her fragrant, delicate body clinging to him like a plaster, warm, soft, and incredibly alluring.

Chapter Ninety-Nine: Xiao Tao's Temptation.

The second round of the competition was about to begin. Two more stunningly beautiful young women came up, their figures and looks no less impressive than the two beauties from the first round.

Betting then began. This time, Yang Yue placed 100,000 chips, betting on the red side to win, doubling his bet from the previous round. It seemed he was now firmly in control of the house.

The competition officially started, following a similar pattern to the previous round. The two women entangled on the stage; after one fell to the ground, the other would sit on top of her and tear off her clothes.

It was the same old routine, and Lin Yupeng quickly lost interest. The red-clad beauty beside him was also busy, pouring him drinks and feeding him small fruits like grapes, lychees, and pistachios. This woman really knew how to serve a man.

Lin Yupeng wasn't interested in the performance on stage, so he started chatting with the beautiful woman next to him.

"What's your name?" Lin Yupeng asked.

"Just call me Xiao Tao, Tao as in peach," the woman in red replied with a coquettish laugh.

"Are you really a wrestler?" he asked in a deep voice.

"Big brother, do I look like one?" the woman in red countered with a seductive look.

"Hehe, I don't think so!" Lin Yupeng said bluntly.

"Hehe, you guessed right, I'm a model!" the woman in red said with a smile.

"I can tell!" Lin Yupeng sized her up, chuckling. Looking at her slender, sexy figure—curvy, shapely, with full breasts and a thick bottom, fair skin—she really did look like a model.

At this moment, Xiao Tao offered him a peeled lychee. He waved his hand, indicating he didn't want it, so Xiao Tao put the lychee in her own mouth.

"Why didn't you quit being a model and came here?" Lin Yupeng asked again.

"Sigh, being a model doesn't earn much money, and the competition is fierce. Besides, I'm still a trainee, I haven't graduated yet!" "Xiao Tao said softly.

"Are you short of money?" Lin Yupeng asked casually, looking at her clear, lake-like eyes.

"Yes, my father is seriously ill and urgently needs money for surgery. My mother has also lost her job, and the family's financial burden is too heavy. I have to come out to perform to earn money..." Xiao Tao's face fell, and as she spoke, tears of sorrow and helplessness welled up in her beautiful eyes, making her look pitiful.

Lin Yupeng chuckled, his face showing suspicion. He knew that women in the sex industry these days would fabricate tragic stories to gain the sympathy of customers and earn more tips. He had always been skeptical of Xiao Tao's words.

"I don't understand. Why do you wrestle with tearing each other's clothes? The more you tear, the more energetic you get. Is it a pornographic performance?" Lin Yupeng, not giving Xiao Tao a chance to perform, changed the subject.

Xiao Tao giggled, then whispered in Lin Yupeng's ear, "We have an internal rule: whoever strips the other naked on stage gets an extra 10,000 yuan in fees!"

"Oh, then you'll miss out on 10,000 yuan!" Lin Yupeng grinned wickedly, recalling the thrilling scene of her being stripped naked on stage earlier—a truly unforgettable experience.

He glanced at the stage and saw the red-clad contestant pinning the green-clad contestant down, tearing at her clothes.

"Brother Lin, cheers!" Yang Yue was in high spirits, confident of victory in this round.

Lin Yupeng downed his drink in one gulp, noticing the green-clad beauty accompanying Yang Yue had already taken her into his lap, her pretty face full of alluring smiles.

"Brother Lin, let me give you a shoulder massage!" Xiao Tao smiled sweetly, kneeling behind Lin Yupeng and kneading his shoulders with her slender, soft hands.

Her technique was skilled and her movements gentle; Lin Yupeng felt a tingling, comfortable sensation in his shoulders.

The sofa chair wasn't large to begin with, and with someone kneeling behind him, it naturally felt a bit cramped. Lin Yupeng felt Xiao Tao's firm breasts pressing against his back. Even through two layers of clothing, he could clearly feel their soft, smooth texture, especially when she moved her body, the two red nipples rubbing against his back, bringing waves of ecstatic pleasure.

Lin Yupeng felt a fire ignite within him, slowly growing. He tried to suppress it, but the more he tried, the stronger it burned

. He had no choice but to focus his attention on the ring. The second round was over, and the crucial third round had begun. The green-clad woman seemed to have recovered, and with a burst of strength, she tripped the red-clad woman, knocking her to the ground. She straddled her and began frantically tearing at her clothes.

The red-clad woman, seemingly exhausted from the previous two rounds, struggled less and less, finally collapsing to the ground, her chest heaving as she breathed heavily, giving up and letting the green-clad woman do as she pleased.

The sounds of tearing clothes filled the air, and soon the red-clad woman was completely naked, even her sneakers were ripped off and thrown off the ring. "Is

there an extra reward for throwing shoes?" Lin Yupeng asked Xiao Tao beside him.

"No, I think it's just deliberate revenge!" "Xiao Tao answered with a smile.

Lin Yupeng glanced at Yang Yue beside him and saw that his face was serious, and he seemed very disappointed with the performance of the woman in red. He had a clear advantage in the first two rounds, but he didn't expect the third round to collapse suddenly.

Sure enough, after the third round, the referee announced that the green team had won!

Yang Yue smiled calmly and said to Lin Yupeng, "What bad luck! I hope I'm not the bookmaker this time, or I'll lose even more!"

The bookmaker for each round is the person with the highest bet after the game ends. If the bookmaker loses, not only will the original bet amount be deducted, but also a penalty of 50% of the original bet amount will be added.

A waiter walked to the stage and announced: "The bookmaker for this round is Mr. Hong Tianhao, with a bet of 150,000. He bet on the green team to win and will receive a prize of 310,000!"

As soon as he finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted around a seat on the right side of the first row. Seated there was Hong Tianhao, the dealer for this round. He appeared to be around thirty years old, dressed in a suit and tie, wearing gold-rimmed glasses . His appearance was average, with a sallow complexion and

an air of cold arrogance. Lin Yupeng noticed a hint of sinister lewdness in his eyes and brows, which was why he wore gold-rimmed glasses to try and conceal his scholarly air, but it still didn't escape Lin Yupeng's sharp eyes.

Six bodyguards stood around Hong Tianhao, two on his left and right, and four behind him, suggesting a powerful background.

Yang Yue breathed a sigh of relief, smiled slightly at Lin Yupeng, and said, "Luckily!"

(Chapter 100: The Hidden Camera)

Yang Yue glanced at Hong Tianhao, and at that moment, Hong Tianhao's gaze met Yang Yue's. One was the smugness of victory, the other the defiant provocation of defeat; their eyes seemed to spark.

The third round began, and Yang Yue bet all the remaining 200,000 chips on the coffee table, again betting on red to win. Hong Tianhao, on the other hand, put up 300,000 chips, betting on green to win. Their subtle strategies were now

locked in a fierce competition. Xiao Tao continued massaging Lin Yupeng, expanding her massage area beyond just his shoulders. Her delicate hands slowly slid down, kneading his back.

After a while, her hands stretched forward and pressed against Lin Yupeng's stomach, continuing to slide down.

Lin Yupeng felt the fire within him uncontrollably erupt, spreading throughout his body. Xiao Tao's movements didn't stop; she actually pressed on his sensitive lower body!

Her hands gently kneaded and squeezed, occasionally flicking with her fingertips. Because the stage lighting was dim, these subtle actions were invisible to outsiders.

Lin Yupeng felt as if a fire was burning intensely in his lower body, rapidly surging upwards and merging with the fire in his heart, spreading like wildfire.

He felt parched and looked at Xiao Tao, who was snuggling close to him. She was indescribably pure and beautiful. He didn't know why he was so aroused; all he wanted now was to release his pent-up desire, to release it completely.

Just as Lin Yupeng was burning with lust, Xiao Tao whispered in his ear, her voice sweet and seductive, "Let's go to the private room and rest for a while!"

Lin Yupeng's eyes blazed with fire, and he chuckled wickedly, "Okay, I'm just about to devour you, my juicy peach!"

"Hehe, this juicy peach of mine has never been picked by anyone!" Xiao Tao said coquettishly, her eyes filled with allure.

She implied that she was still a virgin, but Lin Yupeng couldn't believe it now. How could someone who frequented brothels for so long remain a virgin? Selling her art but not her body? It seemed like a fantasy.

Regardless of whether she was a virgin or not, the lustful Lin Yupeng needed to satisfy his urges. So, he stood up with Xiao Tao in his arms and said to Yang Yue, "Mr. Yang, I've had too much to drink. Let's go to the private room to rest for a while. Excuse me!"

Yang Yue was focused on the intense performance on stage. Hearing Lin Yupeng's words, he didn't even glance at him, nodding and saying, "Okay, go ahead!"

Lin Yupeng and Xiao Tao then went to a private room on the left side of the second floor. This room was specifically for customers to rest, but it had also become a place for prostitution.

Zunlong Entertainment was one of the best brothels in the city. The private rooms were luxuriously furnished, the beds were spotless, and the soundproofing was excellent; no matter how much they made noise inside, no one outside could hear them.

As soon as Xiao Tao entered the private room, she locked the door, helped him sit on the bed, and lightly kissed Lin Yupeng's cheek. She whispered in his ear, "Brother Lin, I'm going to take a shower first, I'll be right back!"

With that, she turned and gracefully walked into the bathroom, her slender waist swaying. Soon, the sound of running water could be heard.

Lin Yupeng sat on the luxurious soft bed in the private room. Suddenly, his mind cleared a little. He wondered what was wrong with him; his immunity to women had plummeted recently, especially when he encountered a woman like Xiao Tao, a rare gem. He couldn't control himself.

He shook his head, trying to clear his confused thoughts, then stood up and walked around the room, examining the furnishings.

Suddenly, he noticed a bedside table next to the luxurious bed, with a lamp and a cartoon alarm clock on it.

A glint flashed in Lin Yupeng's eyes, and the nameless lust in his body instantly subsided, as the cartoon alarm clock had caught his attention.

It was a raccoon, slightly larger than a palm, with brown fur and a round plastic clock face exposed on its belly. The hour and minute hands crossed to show the time: 7:25 PM.

What attracted Lin Yupeng wasn't the clock face, but the raccoon's eyes!

Its eyes were fixed on the luxurious soft bed, and Lin Yupeng noticed a strange glint flash in the raccoon's round eyes. Logically, for a toy devoid of any life, such a gaze was indeed astonishing.

In fact, most people wouldn't have noticed anything unusual in the raccoon's eyes, but Lin Yupeng did. As a double PhD in medicine and physics, and having spent years researching miniature robots, he possessed a keen insight into even the slightest changes.

He couldn't help but scrutinize the raccoon's eyes. Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine. He thought to himself, "A camera! This raccoon's eye is definitely a hidden camera, pointed right at the bed. They're trying to film me and Xiao Tao making love in bed later!"

Lin Yupeng was extremely familiar with cameras; every one of his special robots had a hidden camera on its head. Therefore, he had spotted the camera in the raccoon's eye under his careful observation!

Lin Yupeng couldn't help but shudder. If he hadn't discovered it early, he and Xiao Tao would have been caught on camera during their intimate moment. This camera was definitely installed beforehand, including Xiao Tao's. Everything was arranged. Who was that person?

Yang Yue was the prime suspect. After all, he was the one who brought Lin Yupeng here. Filming this passionate scene could be used as leverage to blackmail him later. Combining this with his past suspicions about Yang Yue, Lin Yupeng was almost certain that Yang Yue was the mastermind behind this incident!

But what to do now? Blindfold the raccoon and continue your lovemaking with Xiao Tao? But Lin Yupeng's interest was largely dampened by the camera. More importantly, there were likely other cameras in the room, just well-hidden and undetected. As for the camera in the raccoon's eye, it was probably there because of the excellent viewing angle.

Xiao Tao was still taking a shower inside, which gave Lin Yupeng time to leave. He knew his every move in the room was being monitored, but he didn't want to reveal it or let anyone know he'd discovered the camera. So he needed a clever escape plan.

He returned to bed, his mind racing, when suddenly his phone rang!

Lin Yupeng hurriedly pulled out his phone and saw it was Qin Xue calling. He was overjoyed: "That's great! Qin Xue's call came just in time!"

He quickly answered, and Qin Xue's sweet voice came through the phone: "Honey, what time are you coming back?"

Lin Yupeng replied, "I'll be right back!" Then he hung up, pretending to be in a hurry, abruptly stood up, opened the door, and left.

Chapter 101 Yang Yue's Secret

Lin Yupeng left the private room and went to the lobby. The match on the stage had entered its fourth round. Yang Yue's seat was empty, and even the woman in green was gone. Only Yang Yue's Thai bodyguard, Kuban, remained standing motionless beside his seat, holding the black safe containing the money. There weren't any chips on the coffee table in front of Yang Yue.

Lin Yupeng glanced at Hong Tianhao sitting to his right. He saw a mountain of chips piled up on the coffee table in front of him; without asking, he knew Hong Tianhao had won again in the last round, and Yang Yue had lost over 300,000.

Hong Tianhao's bodyguards were all smug, flattering and fawning over him, showering him with titles like "God of Gamblers" and "King of Gamblers."

Hong Tianhao showed no excessive joy; the 300,000 yuan seemed like a pile of worthless paper to him. He remained calm and composed, a pair of cold, sharp eyes piercing through his gold-rimmed glasses, occasionally glancing at Yang Yue's empty seat.

Lin Yupeng approached Cuban and asked in a low voice, "Where's Mr. Yang?"

Cuban merely glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, coldly uttering two words: "Resting!"

His speech was always concise, his tone devoid of any life, sounding somewhat intimidating.

Cuban said Yang Yue was resting, which meant he had likely gone to a private room and placed another bet, leaving Cuban to wait for the results.

"I have an urgent matter to attend to. Please convey my message to Mr. Yang," Lin Yupeng said.

Cuban gave a cold snort, acknowledging his agreement.

Talking to this kind of person was just awkward. Lin Yupeng turned and left the entertainment club, taking a taxi home.

As soon as he took out his keys to open the door, Qin Xue greeted him, her pretty face beaming with joy. Like a swallow returning to its nest, she nestled into his arms, lightly kissing his cheek, and said sweetly, "Honey, you're finally back!"

"Wow! Those fiery red lips! What's the good news today? You've given me such a wonderful gift as soon as I get home?" Lin Yupeng asked with a smile, holding her close.

"Guess?" Qin Xue replied sweetly, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

"You did well on your exam?" he smiled.

Lin Yupeng's prediction came true. Qin Xue smiled and nodded, saying, "Honey, you're so smart! You guessed right! Most of the exam questions were within the range you drew for me, and I answered them all. I should get at least 70 points."

"Hehe, which subjects are on the exam tomorrow? Let's cram before the exams!"

Lin Yupeng and Qin Xue went into the study, where he continued tutoring her until 10 p.m. Qin Xue took a shower and went to bed, while he went to the lab.

He turned on the computer, accessed the robot's operating system, and found the surveillance footage the robot had taken in Yang Yue's office break room from noon yesterday to tonight. He rewound the footage bit by bit, searching for the content he needed.

Yang Yue's rest room was actually a deluxe room in a star-rated hotel, fully furnished with luxurious furniture, beds, and appliances. The walls were adorned with murals, calligraphy, and couplets by famous figures.

Since it was Sunday, no one had been there from noon until the next morning, so Lin Yupeng skipped over it.

At 8:15, the door opened, and Yang Yue and his secretary, Xiao Fen, entered. Xiao Fen closed and locked the door.

Yang Yue plopped down on the leather sofa and urged Xiao Fen, "Hurry up! There's a big meeting at 9 o'clock, and I'm worried I might get addicted!" Xiao Fen nodded and quickly walked to the wall opposite the sofa. There hung an oil painting of a tiger descending a mountain, vividly depicted.

Xiao Fen slapped the "王" (king) character on the tiger's head, and with a snap, the painting automatically rolled up, revealing a wardrobe underneath.

Xiao Fen opened the closet and saw a tray inside with a small balance, syringes, needles, cotton wool, a bottle of white liquid, and a white paper packet on it. Next to the tray was a small black box.

Xiao Fen picked up the tray, quickly walked to the sofa, placed it on the coffee table, bent down, and knelt beside it. She opened the white paper packet on the tray; inside was a clump of white powder. She poured the powder onto the balance and began to weigh it.

Seeing this, Lin Yupeng suddenly realized that Yang Yue had been using drugs! No wonder Yang Yue's expression changed drastically after their conversation that day; he made an excuse to send him away and then quickly went to the lounge with Xiao Fen. He was having a drug withdrawal!

Xiao Fen injected Yang Yue with the drug. Yang Yue closed his eyes, half his face flushed and half pale, his expression one of ecstasy, enjoying the euphoric, almost otherworldly pleasure.

Half an hour later, Yang Yue suddenly opened his eyes and asked Xiao Fen, "What time is it?"

Xiao Fen glanced at her watch and said, "8:51."

"Put it away!" Yang Yue said with a sigh of relief.

Xiao Fen nodded, put the tray away, and placed it back in the secret closet. Then, she turned her hand on a protruding stone on the inner wall, quickly withdrew her hand, and the closet door closed automatically, the oil painting on it falling back into place.

After taking the drugs, Yang Yue was refreshed, his eyes sparkling, and left the lounge with Xiao Fen.

From then on, nothing happened in the lounge that morning because Yang Yue was in a meeting.

Lin Yupeng had extracted the video footage of Yang Yue taking drugs. Drug use is illegal, and this could be used as a secret weapon to counter Yang Yue later.

He continued to rewind the footage, and in the afternoon, around 10 PM, a figure appeared on the monitor screen.

Yang Yue and Tian Fangyong, the deputy director of the Dongwan District Health Bureau, walked in side by side, and Yang Yue turned around and locked the door.

The two sat down on the sofa, and Yang Yue, with a fawning smile, lit a cigarette for Tian Fangyong.

Tian Fangyong glanced warily at the door to the lounge and asked Yang Yue, "How's the soundproofing of this door? Can they hear us talking outside?"

Yang Yue laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry! Absolutely no one can hear us. Besides, Xiaofen is one of us; there's no need to be so wary of her!"

"It's always good to be careful with women. Some women are fickle; they might be all smiles and obedient to you today, but they might betray you tomorrow," Tian Fangyong said meaningfully, his eyes gleaming.

Yang Yue didn't seem to agree or disagree, but a strange glint flashed in his eyes.

Lin Yupeng thought to himself, "Yang Yue and Tian Fangyong have a history. The fact that they've entered this secret room means they definitely have something to discuss."

"Mr. Yang, I have something I want to talk to you about today!" Tian Fangyong stubbed out his cigarette and said in a deep voice.

Chapter 102 First Clues

"It's about your daughter getting a job, isn't it? Don't worry, as soon as she graduates, I'll hire her to work for the group! I'll give her a deputy minister position first, and then promote her when the opportunity arises!" Yang Yue asked with a glint in his eyes and a smile.

Tian Fangyong sighed and said in a deep voice, "Alas, you don't understand my precious daughter's personality. She's naturally proud and strong-willed. If she knew you were glaring at her because of me, she definitely wouldn't accept it and would resent me. So I hope you can post a job advertisement in the market first, and then she can apply. Everything should be done according to normal procedures, and she must start as a regular employee. We can't promote her immediately after she arrives, as that would easily arouse her suspicion."

"Okay, I promise you, I definitely won't let her see any flaws. However, Director Tian, I've always had a question, but I don't know if I should say it!" Yang Yue said with a smile.

"What question? Please speak freely!" "Tian Fangyong smiled.

"There are countless enterprises and institutions in Tianhan City, why did your precious daughter choose mine? She didn't even consider other companies." Yang Yue asked in a deep voice.

"Sigh, actually I had already arranged a job for her, but she just wouldn't go. She only wants to work at Tianqiong Group because her boyfriend, my future son-in-law, is a department head here!" Tian Fangyong said.

Yang Yue's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he continued to ask in surprise, "Oh? Your future son-in-law is in my company, who is he?"

"He is Ye Qiujian, the department head of your group's corporate planning department!"

"Haha, so it's Department Head Ye! I really didn't know you two had this connection. Department Head Ye is the most handsome man in my group, and he's also talented and quite capable. He might be a top candidate for vice president in the future. He and your daughter are a match made in heaven!" Lin Yupeng's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this

. He had met Ye Qiujian at the meeting yesterday, and he was indeed an outstanding man.

Tian Fangyong, hearing these words of praise, simply smiled and said, "Precisely because he is so excellent, my daughter is a little worried and wants him to work in the same unit as her, to keep an eye on him. Mr. Yang, do you understand?"

Yang Yue smiled and said, "I understand, I understand, but..." A troubled look appeared on his face, and he continued, "Our group has a rule that employees within each department are not allowed to date. This is a rule set by General Manager Zhang. It might not be suitable for your daughter to go to the planning department!"

"It's okay, other departments are fine too. My daughter said that as long as we can work in the same building, she will feel at ease," Tian Fangyong said.

"Alright then, I can arrange for her to go to another department, one that is closer to the planning department. Director Tian, is this all you wanted to talk to me about? It's a piece of cake!" Yang Yue always liked to describe the things others asked of him as "a piece of cake." No matter how complicated the matter was, it seemed so simple in his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Tian Fangyong's smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression. He pulled a bulging file folder from his briefcase, placed it on the coffee table, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Yang, this is what you gave me when you asked me for a favor last time. I was afraid it would offend you, so I accepted it. I'm returning it to you today. If you still feel indebted to me, then help me with my daughter's matter, and we'll be even. From now on, we'll each go our own way, but we'll still be friends!"

Lin Yupeng estimated the bag contained at least 100,000 yuan. Tian Fangyong's words seemed to indicate he wanted to distance himself from Yang Yue to avoid being controlled by him, hence his proactive return of the money Yang Yue had given him.

Yang Yue maintained his kind smile, not even glancing at the paper bag, and stared at Tian Fangyong, saying, "Director Tian, you're too kind! Your daughter's matter is really nothing, just a small favor, but you helped me get Lin Yupeng out of the hospital, which is a top priority for me. I would feel bad if I didn't do something to show my appreciation!"

Lin Yupeng's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this: "So Dean Peng Feng really was pressured by Tian Fangyong to dismiss me. Yang Yue is behind all this. What secret does he have that he's hiding, going to such lengths to poach me from Tianqiong Group?"

Tian Fangyong smiled slightly, stood up, and said to Yang Yue, "President Yang, we're friends. Don't worry about this. I have things to do at the bureau, so I'll take my leave!"

Yang Yue smiled and said, "Okay, keep in touch!" He then got up to see Tian Fangyong off.

Just as Tian Fangyong turned and pushed open the door, Lin Yupeng clearly saw a cold, enigmatic smile appear on Yang Yue's face!

After Yang Yue and Tian Fangyong left, he didn't return. The surveillance footage showed no one there. Lin Yupeng rewound the footage to tonight, but there were no further developments.

It seemed that the lounge was where Yang Yue met with important guests. Lin Yupeng decided to leave the small flying insect there temporarily to continue secretly filming Yang Yue's activities.

After everything was ready, he checked his watch; it was almost midnight. He left the lab and went to the study.

He saw Qin Xue fast asleep on the bed, her arms crossed over her chest, her legs spread wide, her pretty face flushed and a sweet smile on her face—she looked incredibly cute.

This girl wasn't a very still sleeper; she had kicked off the blanket covering her, and a corner of her pink undershirt was pulled up, revealing her alluring navel. Although it was summer and the night was hot, the air conditioning could still make her catch a chill.

So Lin Yupeng went to the bedside and gently covered Qin Xue with the blanket again. Just as he was covering her body with the blanket, he caught a glimpse of a small opening in her panties, revealing a glimpse of her alluring pubic hair and beautiful vulva.

Lin Yupeng immediately felt a surge of lust; the fire ignited by Xiao Tao at the entertainment club that night hadn't completely subsided!

He really wanted to get into bed and have some fun with Qin Xue, but thankfully he remained clear-headed, knowing that Qin Xue had an exam the next day, and he couldn't let his own desires affect her exam.

Lin Yupeng suppressed the urge to climb on top of her, returned to his bedroom, lay down on the bed, and it took him a long time to fall asleep.

The next morning, he got up earlier than usual, went to the morning market to buy some food, and then went home to make breakfast for Qin Xue.

After eating breakfast with Qin Xue, Lin Yupeng suddenly thought of a question—had Yang Yue installed a hidden camera in his office? This was something he had to find out!
