Lin Tai nodded at Ye Huan after saying that, and then turned and left!
Actually, Lin Tai was furious right now. With the company under hacker attack and fighting for survival, Lin Qingyun, as the eldest son of the Lin Family, not only failed to help Lin Xi get through this difficult time, but instead came over to make trouble for her. This made him immensely disappointed in his eldest son.
Demoting Lin Qingyun to the Security Team was his way of trying to toughen him up a bit.
"S-Security... Captain?"
Lin Qingyun's head was buzzing. Just a second ago, he was the dignified eldest young master of the Lin Family, as well as the president and director of the Lin Group—and in the next second, he had actually become a Security Team Captain?
"Captain Lin, the safety of the Lin Group is in your hands from now on. Hahahahaha..."
Lin Canglan patted Lin Qingyun's shoulder, laughed heartily, and turned to leave.
Lin Qingyun was so angry that his prostate ached fiercely. Then he abruptly snapped his head around to glare at Ye Huan, his expression vicious as he snapped:
"You pig-slaughtering bastard, it's all because of you! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up in this state. I'm going to beat you to death, you son of a bitch..."
With that, he swung an angry slap at Ye Huan's face.
Ye Huan casually grabbed Lin Qingyun's wrist, froze for a split second, and then immediately recovered. Casually tossing Lin Qingyun's hand aside, he clicked his heels, saluted Lin Qingyun, and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Captain Lin, good day!"
Pfft!
This scene made Lin Xi burst out laughing, and she quickly grabbed Ye Huan and ran outside.
"You pig-slaughtering bastard, I'm not finished with you..."
Lin Qingyun stared at Ye Huan's retreating back and let out an angry roar.
...
After Ye Huan and Lin Xi got into the car, Lin Xi sat sideways and kept staring at Ye Huan's profile.
"Looking at me with such infatuation, don't tell me you've fallen in love with me?"
Ye Huan turned his head to look at Lin Xi and asked with a smile.
"Ha, you haven't even gone to sleep yet, and you're already starting to dream?"
Lin Xi curled her lip and asked with curiosity:
"It's strange—why would a pig-slaughtering man like you learn hacker skills?"
Mentioning this, Ye Huan turned uncharacteristically serious. "If you had been through what I've been through, you'd be full of versatile skills too!"
When he was eight years old, he was sold by human traffickers to a killer training camp. In that place where human life was worthless, besides being forced every day to undergo all kinds of killing technique training, he also had to learn various other skills.
For instance, hacking, espionage, various firearms, and so on. Those who refused to learn, or lacked the talent to master them, were cruelly put to death.
"You make it sound like you're amazing!"
Lin Xi sneered and asked, "Just how good are your hacking skills?"
Without even thinking, Ye Huan replied, "Second best in the world!"
There was not a shred of exaggeration in those words, nor any false modesty!
Before entering God Trapping Prison, his hacking skills were barely passable, nothing to brag about.
But after going to God Trapping Prison, he met the globally acknowledged number one hacker, the Cult Master, who was imprisoned there.
After studying under the Cult Master for a year, his hacking skills advanced by leaps and bounds, though there was still a huge gap between him and the Cult Master.
It wasn't that his talent was inferior to the Cult Master's; it was simply that the hacking profession requires long hours of painstaking study and total immersion.
And that was something Ye Huan could never bring himself to do!
Ye Huan's greatest achievement of all time was hacking the computers of every single official bigwig in Beautiful Country, Fusang, and Kimchi Country, and treating those folks to a 24-hour marathon of adult movies.

Chapter 31: High-Definition, Uncensored
"S-Security... Captain?"
Lin Qingyun stared at Lin Tai's retreating back, his head buzzing!
Just a second ago, he was the dignified eldest young master of the Lin Family, as well as the president and director of the Lin Group—and in the next second, he had actually become a Security Team Captain?
"Captain Lin, the safety of the Lin Group is in your hands from now on. Hahahahaha..."
Lin Canglan deliberately laughed very loudly just to piss Lin Qingyun off.
Lin Qingyun was so angry that his prostate ached fiercely, but instead of snapping back, he turned his furious gaze toward Ye Huan, his expression vicious as he snarled:
"You pig-slaughtering bastard, it's all because of you! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have ended up in this state. I'm going to beat you to death, you son of a bitch..."
With that, he swung an angry slap at Ye Huan's face.
Ye Huan casually grabbed Lin Qingyun's wrist, froze for a split second, and then immediately recovered. Casually tossing Lin Qingyun's hand aside, he clicked his heels, saluted Lin Qingyun, and shouted at the top of his lungs:
"Captain Lin, good day!"
Pfft!
This scene made Lin Xi burst out laughing, and she quickly grabbed Ye Huan and ran outside.
If she didn't run now, Lin Qingyun might actually fight Ye Huan to the death!
"You pig-slaughtering bastard, I'm not finished with you..."
Lin Qingyun stared at Ye Huan's retreating back and let out a hysterical, angry roar.
After Lin Xi dragged him out of the Cyber Security Department, Ye Huan couldn't help asking:
"Does your eldest uncle Lin Qingyun have any children?"
Lin Xi didn't understand why Ye Huan was asking this, but she answered anyway:
"He has two sons."
Ye Huan was stunned. Just now, when Lin Qingyun tried to slap him, Ye Huan had grabbed his wrist and inadvertently felt Lin Qingyun's pulse, discovering that Lin Qingyun was suffering from infertility.
Yet Lin Xi was saying Lin Qingyun had two sons.
What the hell!
Lin Qingyun's hair color was looking quite green!
The two of them arrived at the underground parking garage!
After getting into the car, seeing that Lin Xi was sitting sideways and staring right at him, Ye Huan asked:
"You're looking at me with such infatuation—don't tell me you've fallen in love with me?"
"Ha, you haven't even gone to sleep yet, and you're already starting to dream?"
Lin Xi curled her lip and asked with curiosity:
"It's strange—why would a pig-slaughtering man like you learn hacker skills? Was it because you liked it?"
Mentioning this, Ye Huan turned uncharacteristically serious. "If you had been through what I've been through, you'd be full of versatile skills too!"
When he was eight years old, he was sold by human traffickers to a killer training camp. In that place where human life was worthless, besides being forced every day to undergo all kinds of killing technique training, he also had to learn various other skills.
For instance, hacking, espionage, surgery, various firearms, and so on. Anyone who dared to slack off would inevitably receive a savage beating.
"You make it sound like you're amazing!"
Lin Xi sneered and asked, "Just how good are your hacking skills?"
Without even thinking, Ye Huan replied, "Second best in the world!"
There was not a shred of exaggeration in those words, nor any false modesty!
Before entering God Trapping Prison, his hacking skills were barely passable, nothing to brag about.
But after going to God Trapping Prison, he met the globally acknowledged number one hacker, the Cult Master, who was imprisoned there.
After studying under the Cult Master for a year, his hacking skills advanced by leaps and bounds, though there was still a huge gap between him and the Cult Master.
It wasn't that his talent was inferior to the Cult Master's; it was simply that the hacking profession requires long hours of painstaking study and total immersion.
And that was something Ye Huan could never bring himself to do!
Ye Huan's greatest achievement of all time was hacking the computers of every single official bigwig in Beautiful Country, Fusang, and Kimchi Country, and treating those folks to a 24-hour marathon of adult movies.
"You don't want me to go work in the Cyber Security Department of the Lin Group, do you?" Ye Huan asked.
"I do have that intention!"
Lin Xi nodded. With Ye Huan's level of attainment in hacking technology, he would surely be able to beat back any invading enemies attempting to attack the Lin Group's network.
"I don't want to go!"
Ye Huan refused flatly. He had once hidden his identity and worked as a network security engineer at a major Wall Street firm, and it was terribly boring.
"What if I order you to go?" Lin Xi asked.
"I can introduce you to a hacking expert who is even more formidable than me," Ye Huan said.
Lin Xi's eyes lit up. "How formidable?"
"As long as he is holding down the fort, the Lin Group will become the safest place in the world—in terms of cyber security, of course," Ye Huan said.
"Really?" Lin Xi was a bit skeptical.
"When he gets here, you can test him and you'll know!" Ye Huan shrugged.
"Fine!"
Lin Xi decided to trust Ye Huan for the time being, and said:
"Grandpa told me to arrange a job for you at the Lin Group. Since you don't want to go to the Cyber Security Department, you can go be a security guard in the Security Team!"
Hearing this, Ye Huan panicked. "I just offended Lin Qingyun on your account, and you're sending me to work as a security guard under him? He'll torture me to death."
"That's precisely what I want to see!" Lin Xi said with a smug smile.
Ye Huan: "..."
Only then did Ye Huan remember that the purpose of Lin Xi marrying him was to exact revenge on him. How could she possibly miss an opportunity to torture him by using Lin Qingyun's hands?
...
Inside a dimly lit study!
A bald-headed middle-aged man in his thirties or forties was typing frantically on his keyboard.
Yet no matter how hard he tried, he simply couldn't close the adult movie playing continuously on his computer screen.
High-definition, uncensored!
"My intelligence was inaccurate. The Lin Group actually has a hacking expert whose capabilities far exceed my own."
The middle-aged man muttered to himself in shock.
He was the very hacker who had breached the Lin Group's network!
"Screech!"
Just at that moment, the study door was pushed open from the outside, and a young man and woman walked in.
The man was dressed all in black;
The woman was dressed all in white, right down to her hair and shoes.
Their complexions were both incomparably pale, making them look just like ghosts!
"Who—who are you people?"
The middle-aged man abruptly stood up, asking with a mixture of shock and terror.
"Hell Sect, Black and White Impermanence!"
The young man in black replied expressionlessly.Actually, while engaging in a duel with the hacker, Ye Huan had incidentally tracked down the IP address of the hacker's computer. Using that IP, he pinpointed the hacker's location and then sent a text message from his computer to Kshitigarbha, the bald, fat man from the Hell Sect.
He had ordered Kshitigarbha to go capture the hacker and interrogate him to find out who was pulling the strings behind the scenes.
...
After dropping Lin Xi off at home, Ye Huan drove her car back to his own place in Cello Bay.
As soon as he stepped through the front door, he saw Yaoji wearing a bathrobe, reclining on the sofa in an extremely sexy and seductive pose while watching Empresses in the Palace.
"Why aren't you asleep yet so late?" Ye Huan asked.
"My King, you're back!"
Seeing Ye Huan return, Yaoji hurriedly jumped up and threw herself into his arms, cooing coquettishly, "I was waiting for you, of course! How could I possibly fall asleep when you weren't back yet?"
That afternoon, she had gone upstairs intending to sneak a peek at Ye Huan taking a bath. When that failed, she went back to her bedroom and slept the entire afternoon, planning to have a decisive showdown with Ye Huan tonight that would last until dawn.
"Waiting for me?"
An amused expression played across Ye Huan's face as his hands wandered over Yaoji's body, and he asked, "What? Do you want to warm my bed tonight?"
"I am the King's woman, and serving in your bed is my bounden duty!" Yaoji said without the slightest trace of shyness.
Ye Huan pushed Yaoji away, pinched her chin, and said,"I'm not taking you in just to use you as a tool to vent my desires. All right, go to sleep!"
With that, he headed toward the second floor.
Yaoji was dumbfounded. Ever since she followed Ye Huan out of God Trapping Prison, she had been eagerly anticipating spending a romantic night with him. Only then would she truly be able to consider herself the King of Hell's woman.
She had even prepared herself to compete with Lin Xi for the position of Queen, going so far as to watch the television drama *Empresses in the Palace* to study palace intrigue.
Yet, judging by what Ye Huan meant, he had no intention of sleeping with her at all.
"It looks like my path to becoming Queen is going to be a bit bumpy!" Yaoji muttered to herself in utter disappointment.
Chapter 32: You Know Nothing About My Strength
What a seductive little minx!
Ye Huan's appetite was thoroughly whetted, his desire completely ignited by Yaoji, but he managed to hold back the urge to pounce on her. He said, "We just arrived in Pengcheng today, and far too many things have happened. I need to calm down and sort through my thoughts, to figure out how we're going to live here in Pengcheng from now on."
Reflecting before bed was his habit. With those words, he gently pushed Yaoji aside and walked toward the second floor.Yaoji panicked when she heard that. She had taken eight baths all afternoon, applied scented lotion, and even figured out what positions to use, and now he was saying they weren't going to sleep together after all?
Watching Ye Huan's retreating back, Yaoji aggrievedly pouted, tears almost welling up in her eyes.
"Consider it good things taking time!"
Yaoji comforted herself, then turned off the television and went upstairs to the second floor to sleep, thinking to herself that she would wake up early tomorrow morning and have a morning workout session with the King of Hell.
In her sleep, a terrifying murderous aura jerked Yaoji awake.
Out of assassin instinct, Yaoji rapidly rolled under the bed, pressing flat against the floor to listen intently.
Then she heard movement coming from the back garden, and the murderous aura was also coming from the back garden.
She crept to the edge of the window, stood up cautiously, and lifted a corner of the curtain to look outside.
She saw Ye Huan practicing his blade in the garden!
And the murderous aura was indeed being emitted by Ye Huan!
"My Lord, why aren't you sleeping in the middle of the night and practicing martial arts here instead? Are you suffering from insomnia?"
Yaoji glanced at the time; it was only four-ten in the morning. She opened the window, jumped out, and asked.
When she said this, she was quite annoyed. The King of Hell suffered from insomnia, yet he'd rather practice martial arts by himself than come find her.
It was just insomnia, wasn't it? If he found her for an hour or so of physical exercise, he would get sleepy right away.
"I always wake up at four in the morning every day to practice martial arts!" Ye Huan said.
Yaoji was filled with incomparable shock. No wonder the King of Hell was so formidable; it turned out he was this diligent.
To work hard in places where no one pays attention, and to shine in places where everyone watches—that was the King of Hell indeed!
"Yaoji, do you want to be the number one warrior on the Global God of War Rankings?"
At this moment, Ye Huan stopped and asked.
Yaoji's eyes lit up: "I do!"
Even though she knew that even if she ascended to the throne of the number one warrior on the Global God of War Rankings, she still wouldn't be the strongest expert in the world—at least Ye Huan, Butler, and that bald fatty from the Hell Sect were stronger than her.
But at least on paper she would be the world's top expert, which was already super cool and awesome!
"Good, then starting tomorrow, you will get up at four in the morning to practice martial arts with me. Your foundation and talent are both quite good. Under my guidance, in a month at most, you will be able to surpass the number one on the God of War Rankings!" Ye Huan said.
A month?
Yaoji's heart surged with excitement: "Then you might as well start guiding me right now!""Put your clothes on first!" Ye Huan said.
Clothes?
Yaoji looked down!
What the hell!
She wasn't wearing any clothes at all!
...
At six-thirty in the morning, Lin Xi, fast asleep, suddenly bolted upright in bed as if rising from the dead. She glanced around the bedroom and let out a sigh of relief.
"So it was just a dream..."
She had been jolted awake by a nightmare. In the dream, Ye Huan had violated her in a KTV private room. Like Xiang Yingxin, she had staggered out of the room, leaning against the wall, with blood trickling down her legs. Every step she took left a bloody footprint behind.
As she made her way down the stairs, leaning heavily on the banister and walking with agonizing difficulty, she saw Shen Huamei, Su Lei, Xiang Yingxin, and the others pointing at her and hurling obscenities, with Xiang Yingxin saying the most vicious things of all.
That was when she woke up in a panic!
"I actually had an erotic dream, and the leading man was that scumbag Ye Huan, that worthless jerk..."
Overwhelmed with shame, Lin Xi could not help but picture the scene from five years ago when Ye Huan had taken advantage of her and humiliated her. The memory instantly filled her chest with fury.
Fuming, she grabbed her phone from beside the pillow and called Ye Huan...
...After finishing their cultivation, Ye Huan and Yaoji had just taken a shower and were getting ready for a vigorous morning workout.
Just as they embraced and leaned in to kiss, his phone rang.
"Ye, you scumbag, I order you to come to my house immediately," Lin Xi said.
Ye Huan glanced at the time. "It's only half past six. Didn't you tell me to be downstairs at your place by eight?"
"I moved it up!"
With that, she hung up the phone.
Ye Huan put the phone away, feeling rather gloomy. Looking at Yaoji, who was already fully prepared for battle, he said, "Lin Xi wants me to go pick her up right now."
Yaoji didn't need Ye Huan to tell her; she had heard it herself, seeing as the distance between her lips and Ye Huan's mouth was less than a centimeter.
In that instant, Yaoji was furious. She had been all set for her morning workout with Ye Huan, only for it to be completely ruined by that little green tea.
She wanted to throw a tantrum, make a fuss, unreasonably stop Ye Huan from going to pick up Lin Xi, and perhaps even vent her frustration on Lin Xi a little.
Yet, a mere second later, Yaoji dismissed every single one of those thoughts.
"Go ahead. Drive safely on the way. After you drop that little green tea off at the company, remember to get yourself something to eat—skipping breakfast is bad for your health," Yaoji said gently and understandingly.After finishing, she mentally gave herself a standing ovation.
Listen to that!
Just listen to that!
How sensible, how understanding, how gentle, and how likable she was.
Unlike that little weakling, who called at half-past six in the morning and ordered Ye Huan to pick her up in that bossy tone. So utterly senseless, so uncomprehending, so annoying, and so detestable.
The King would definitely feel the difference between her and that little weakling!
As long as she kept this up, the King would surely grow to like her more and more, and despise that little weakling more and more.
When a certain boiling point was reached, the King would banish that little weakling to the cold palace and elevate her, his favorite consort, to the throne of Queen.
"I will!"
Ye Huan cupped Yaoji's pretty face, kissed her, and then quickly dressed and hurried away.
The moment Ye Huan left, Yaoji dropped the act entirely!
"Little weakling, you'd better hope I never catch you, or I swear I'll stab you to death!"
Furious, Yaoji paced back and forth in the bedroom, muttering viciously to herself.
...
Speeding all the way, Ye Huan arrived downstairs at Lin Xi's place and called her:
"I'm here!"
"Wait!" Lin Xi said.
With that, she hung up.
Without thinking too much about it, Ye Huan put away his phone and waited, but that wait lasted a full hour.
At exactly eight o'clock, right on schedule, Lin Xi walked out.
Today, Lin Xi wore a silver business suit. She looked intellectual, sharp, strode with the wind, and radiated an overwhelming aura.
Yet what caught Ye Huan's attention was the full breasts, slender waist, and rounded hips accentuated by the professional attire.
"You came out at eight, so what was the meaning of calling me at half-past six to come over?"
Right now, Ye Huan had zero mood to appreciate Lin Xi's beauty and asked with displeasure.
"Clause 3 of the marriage agreement states that after marriage, the wife has the right to command all of the husband's time. I'm already cutting you some slack by not making you come at one or two in the morning!"
Lin Xi opened the door, got into the passenger seat, and said expressionlessly.
Only then did Ye Huan realize that Lin Xi had deliberately made him come early just to exact revenge on him.
"What? Are you mad?"
Seeing Ye Huan's dark face, Lin Xi's mood instantly lifted, and she deliberately grinned to provoke him.
