Urban Ace Bodyguard

Chapter 1228 - 1303: Miss Xia Chuxin's Instructions

Lin Hai's response left everyone briefly stunned, then they all instinctively curled their lips, obviously not believing what he said.Everyone looked at Lin Hai and Queen Qi with skeptical eyes, with a hint of disdain in their gaze.

Yang Qingqing didn't know why, but she felt that Lin Hai didn't seem to be lying or bragging.

Queen Qi was also taken aback for a moment. Looking at Lin Hai's confident face, she suddenly understood. Yes, although Linlin appeared to be a security guard on the surface, he secretly owned Linya Pharmaceutical Group.

The vast income of Linya Pharmaceutical every month made buying not just one villa, but even several top luxury homes in the most bustling areas of Yanjing an easy and enjoyable task.

"Wow, who would've thought that being a security guard could have such a promising future? The wind's been strong lately, be careful not to sprain your tongue." Dong Ting popped up ghost-like, speaking in a sarcastic tone.

Lin Hai smiled nonchalantly. Perhaps these people considered themselves social elites, but in reality, they were just petty people smugly celebrating minor successes.

He had seen numerous truly significant figures whom ordinary people only dreamed of meeting, and each one of them was low-key and humble.

Even if Lin Hai casually revealed one of his identities, it would be enough to shock this group to the point of wetting their pants.

After all, the mere fact that Yang Qingqing had some ties to the Yanjing Yang Family and instilled such fear in these people revealed a lot of issues.

"So, Mr. Lin, since you're so wealthy, what kind of car do you drive?"

The gentleman who initially flaunted his small Mercedes car key couldn't help but stand up, smiling brightly.

Everyone perked up their ears with curiosity.

"I don't have a car myself," Lin Hai answered honestly.

"Oh, I see." The Mercedes guy nodded, obviously gloating.

Cars are generally something you drive out at any time, so they can't be faked.

Everyone immediately felt that Lin Hai had deliberately lied to show off earlier, but revealed the truth about the car since it couldn't be faked.

"However, I usually ride in my friends' cars, like Maybachs, Porsches, Rolls-Royces, and even limited-edition China Dragons," Lin Hai added.

The Mercedes guy's face turned a bit unhappy.

"Mr. Lin, your joke isn't funny at all."

Lin Hai lit a cigarette and said calmly, "I'm telling the truth."

Li Youquan, who had been quietly observing from the side, felt he had seen through Lin Hai and couldn't help but feel a bit smug.

He thought to himself: This Lin guy doesn't have any capital or strength at all, and I'm much stronger than him. It seems like with some scheming and tricks, I can easily win over Officer Qi.

The thought of having fun with Officer Qi in bed made Li Youquan's excited eyes nearly burst through his thick glasses.

Yang Qingqing curiously nudged Queen Qi's arm and asked softly, "What exactly does your boyfriend do? Why do I feel like he's telling the truth?"

Queen Qi replied, "It's true, but Linlin is indeed a security guard."

"A security guard? How can a security guard live in a villa and drive luxury cars?" Yang Qingqing didn't believe it.

"It's true, but he's friends with Zhuge Jianguo," Queen Qi thought for a moment and answered.

Yang Qingqing was taken aback, finding the name somewhat familiar like thunder in her ears. She paused for a few seconds before gasping in shock, "You're not joking, right?"

"It's true, Zhuge Jianguo calls my Linlin a big brother."

"..."

Yang Qingqing was speechless, suppressing her deep shock, and looked curiously at Lin Hai, who was smoking, wondering what kind of man he was. He seemed ordinary, but knowing the top rich young master in Yanjing meant he couldn't possibly be ordinary.

Just as everyone was preparing to mock Lin Hai further, Li Youquan's phone suddenly rang.

"Hello? Who is this?"

Li Youquan spoke in an official tone, deliberately stretching his voice.

"Ah! Leader, oh, hello, Leader. I just had a sip of water; my voice sounded a bit off. Oh, please hold on, I'll be there shortly, Li."

After the call, Li Youquan's attitude made a 180-degree turn.

Then, he stood up and smiled at everyone, with a slight sense of personal pride, "Everyone, my leader called me, I'm really sorry. You go ahead and eat."

"Oh, it's understandable if Mr. Li has something important. You should go." Dong Ting was the first to flatter and please him.

Everyone chimed in with various agreements.

Li Youquan smiled slightly and gave Dong Ting a few more looks.

Lin Hai perceptively noticed Li Youquan and Dong Ting whispering silently to each other, with the general content being, "After I'm done tonight, the usual place, I've booked the room. Remember to bring your sister-in-law, so we can all have a good time."

Li Youquan left but glanced back at Queen Qi.

Everyone watched Li Youquan leave with envy, as if serving the leader was a tremendous honor.

Yang Qingqing curled her lips, feeling that the friendships built during their school days had not only flipped but sunk to the bottom of the sea without a trace remaining.

Dong Ting also stood up, saying to everyone, "I just happen to have something to do, so I apologize everyone."

With that, she leisurely got up and left.

The few men present shared a knowing, ambiguous look, evidently aware that Dong Ting wasn't exactly first-rate company.

As for the few women, some even showed slight envy in their eyes.

Lin Hai shook his head, lamenting how society had deteriorated, with people seeking hookups so enthusiastically.

The scene returned to quietness.

The Mercedes guy clearly wasn't ready to let Lin Hai off the hook and smiled as he asked, "Mr. Lin, where were we? Oh, which of your friends do you associate with? I know quite a few high-society guys in Yanjing too; we might know some of the same people."

The people around perked up their ears, gleefully awaiting Lin Hai's answer.

"Oh, Yang Zhentian from the Yang Family, Hai Wuyan from the Hai Family, Xiao Feidao from the Xiao Family, and Cao Dan from the Cao Family, these are all my friends," Lin Hai answered seriously.

The Mercedes guy froze and then showed a disdainful expression, "Mr. Lin, that's not a funny joke at all."

The few women around couldn't even bother to glance at Lin Hai.

Queen Qi wanted to stand up and say, "Lin Hai isn't joking; he's telling the truth."

However, just as she was preparing to stand up, the door to their private room suddenly opened.

Following that, a group of waiters walked in, carrying exquisite dishes and respectfully placing them on the table.

The Mercedes guy looked at the luxurious dishes, puzzled, "We didn't order such expensive dishes."

The woman leading them, likely the lobby manager, wore a charming smile and explained, "Oh, Miss Xia from the next room specially ordered these. She heard there was a distinguished guest with the surname Lin here."

"Miss Xia? What Miss Xia? I don't know her either." The Mercedes guy was even more puzzled. He also had the surname Lin, but it seemed he didn't know any Miss Xia.

The lobby manager smiled slightly, "I wonder which one of you is Mr. Lin Hai? Miss Xia Chuxin, the daughter of the Vice Chief of the Inner Palace, asked me to send her regards, and these dishes were specially ordered for you, Mr. Lin Hai."

The daughter of the Vice Chief of the Inner Palace!

Upon hearing this, everyone present was shocked.

Moreover, the full table of exquisite dishes must have cost at least seventy to eighty thousand, which was definitely not something an ordinary person could afford!

Additionally, Vice Chief Xia indeed has two daughters, which was well-known in Yanjing. Countless bachelors and white-collar workers dreamed of marrying into the Xia Family, thus turning their lives around and soaring high.

"Oh, and honorable Mr. Lin Hai, Miss Xia also instructed that you entertain your friends well; she said you always like to keep a low profile."

This last sentence completely changed the way everyone looked at Lin Hai.

As for Lin Hai himself, inside he was shouting, "Holy crap!"
