Ouyang Xiaoya was secretly relieved that no one would expect Gao Dashang to hide evidence in a movie on a USB drive.

That was a relatively clever move.

She was lucky that, by a fluke, she had accidentally clicked on it.

Even luckier was that Beast Lin was by her side. If it had been just her, a woman alone, she would never watch such embarrassing stuff, and naturally, she wouldn't have discovered the evidence.

In the grand scheme of things, fate always seems to create coincidences that are both laughable and lamentable.

"Having a Beast Lin around can be pretty handy at times."

Ouyang Xiaoya then realized that the reason Beast Lin managed to discover the evidence was that he had been watching the movie!

Instantly, her sense of relief turned into displeasure, embarrassment, and anger.

Damn Beast, daring to watch that kind of movie in front of her, and the place she had mistakenly punched was exactly where his... thing was pointing at her! Outrageous!

She was initially going to scold him, but when she saw Lin Hai's grimacing face, guilt started to creep into her heart.

He had been working hard recently, always busy with things; it wasn't right to treat him this way.

"Lin Hai, does it still hurt? Let me help you get up."

"It would be even better if you could give it a rub."

"..."

"Damn Beast, hope the pain kills you."

Deep down, Ouyang Xiaoya was fuming.

"CEO, did you enjoy the movie just now?"

"Enjoyable, extremely enjoyable, so enjoyable I feel like punching you to death right now."

If someone's words are sometimes sharp and cutting, like carrying knives and weapons, CEO thinks Lin Hai's words are like sticks, the vibrating kind at that!

"Heh heh, CEO, what do you think about watching movies together every day after we get married? How about that?"

The thought alone was too thrilling; now this is what future happiness looks like!

Ouyang Xiaoya rolled her eyes, wondering what on earth goes through that Beast's mind daily!

Thinking of watching movies together every day after getting married… that thought alone sends shivers down her spine.

"Heh heh, I'm puzzled, you can get bored watching Hollywood films and epic war dramas? My threshold for excitement must be really low."

After Lin Hai finished speaking, he chuckled wickedly.

Ouyang Xiaoya hadn't realized that statement was a trap, leading her to fall into it obediently.

"Damn Beast, are you talking while you have a vibrating… thing in your mouth? So sleazy!"

"Sh*t, CEO, that description of yours..."

"High power, high frequency… damn it!"

She didn't think that her counterattack would be visualized so vividly by the damn Beast as if he had actually used it himself.

Looking down at Lin Hai on the ground, for some reason, the CEO suddenly felt a cat-killing curiosity, seriously pondering the question—what would it actually look like if Lin Hai really used a vibrating... stick on himself...

She immediately shook her head vigorously, casting aside such a terrifying thought.

Actually, this kind of normal psychological curiosity and associative thinking is what led to the development of a brilliant civilization, cough cough.

Knock knock knock, the sound of knocking on the door rang out once again.

"President Ouyang, the board meeting is about to start," Murong Xue's voice sounded again, only this time she wouldn't dare to open the door no matter what.

"Alright, I got it."

Lin Hai and Ouyang Xiaoya looked at each other, took a deep breath. The board meeting was about to begin.

"CEO, let me go in with you."

"Didn't you say you were in pain?" Ouyang Xiaoya huffed, giving a fierce stare at the front of Lin Hai's trousers.

Lin Hai squeezed his legs together and let out a mischievous chuckle, "It hurt before, but after I saw your face, the pain just disappeared."

"Hmph!"

Ouyang Xiaoya let out a heavy snort. She knew Lin Hai was deliberately acting this way in an attempt to slightly reduce the pressure in her heart, but this behavior was just too... something.

"Let's go, Lin Hai. Oh right, did we manage to get back the shares transferred by Gao Dashang?"

Lin Hai nodded, "We got them back. To be on the safe side, I took the initiative to transfer them under my name. I guess Gao Dashang would have never thought the shares would end up with me."

Ouyang Xiaoya nodded, then thought of something, "Combined with those from the five of them, that's a total of twenty-five percent. The company has twelve directors altogether. With your shares and mine, we are on equal footing now."

"Hehe, then am I not practically becoming President Lin?"

"Holy sh*t! Now that you say it, I'm getting a little excited. From security guard to president, one step at a time, braving through storms, silently advancing, until reaching the pinnacle of life, I should write an inspirational biography."

"Inspirational biography? Hmph," Ouyang Xiaoya wanted to give Lin Hai a reality check.

"Hehe, I've even thought of the opening line. It's called 'The Domineering CEO from the Loess Land', don't ask me how I became the CEO, I just strive for improvement, just so willful, my original intention never fades."

"Keep showing off. I have twenty-six percent of the shares, just a tiny bit more than you. Sorry, Director Lin."

"Ga—" Lin Hai abruptly stopped, closed his mouth sheepishly, and with discomfort, hummed, his CEO dream dashed.

As they walked out of the office, they were suddenly faced with two people approaching.

"Haha, President Ouyang, you're getting more and more beautiful."

Gao Dashang was smug as a spring breeze, accompanied by a woman dressed as his secretary.

Lin Hai's eyes widened, sh*t, isn't that Dong Jingjing from my WeChat friends list?

Dong Jingjing also showed surprise when she saw Lin Hai but quickly returned to her normal composure, even showing a bit of disdain and unfamiliarity.

"Chairman Gao, you're looking younger and younger. Nice secretary you've got there," Lin Hai interjected with a laugh.

"Who are you?" Gao Dashang coldly stared at Lin Hai with a hostile tone.

"Oh, me? I'm called Tall, Rich, and Handsome. Guess we must be relatives," Lin Hai blinked his eyes playfully.

A flash of anger crossed Gao Dashang's face, but then he remembered that soon he would control the entire vast company. At that time, this Lin Hai who was a thorn in his side would be instantly fired. Humph!

"Jingjing, let me introduce you. This is the prestigious Iceberg Goddess of Huadu, Ouyang Xiaoya."

Gao Dashang directly addressed the CEO by her full name as he introduced her.

"Ouyang Xiaoya? Such a beautiful name, hehe," Dong Jingjing's voice carried a challenge that only women would understand.

"I don't deserve such praise, it's about capability, not just beauty," Ouyang Xiaoya responded coolly, not even casting a glance at Dong Jingjing, letting her know through presence and status that they were not on the same level.

"President Ouyang, I hope you can remain this indifferent during the board meeting," Dong Jingjing counterattacked.
