Urban Ace Bodyguard

"I'm wrong, deep down I realize the seriousness of my mistake, although I'm not clear on where exactly I went wrong, I should not have hurt my dear wife, it's all my fault, I promise from now on to turn over a new leaf and start afresh, I hope my wife can forgive me this once, this is the first time, and the last time... hopefully."

Lin Hai wore a bitter and apologetic smile, holding a written self-criticism in his hand as he stood and read in the spacious part of the room.

"Beast." Ouyang Xiaoya's eyebrows knotted as if she wished she could devour Lin Hai alive.

"That's your attitude in a self-criticism? This is how you apologize? Hmph." With an annoyed snort, Ouyang Xiaoya reddened once again to a ripe apple's hue at the thought of what happened just now, throwing a glare at Lin Hai.

"Hehe, my dear wife, it really wasn't my fault, it was totally an accident." Lin Hai said with an ingratiating smile.

"What accident?" Ouyang Xiaoya's teeth clenched, and the look of Lin Hai's smile made her want to punch him square in the face.

"Spit it out, what the hell happened in my room? Star Wars?" Ouyang Xiaoya mocked.

Lin Hai immediately wilted, he really couldn't tell her, after all, it would be too hard for her to accept, and he didn't want to expose his identity, that would only bring her endless trouble. Reader support at M*VLEM*PYR made this translation possible.

So, on this issue, Lin Hai could only skirt around the main point.

"Wife, I've brought your cousin back, she's also in the villa now, may I change my clothes first?" Lin Hai asked earnestly, blinking his eyes.

"You!" Ouyang Xiaoya was so frustrated she itched, why didn't this guy say her cousin was back sooner? If her cousin saw them like this, it would be utterly embarrassing.

"Get lost." Ouyang Xiaoya waved him away with a big gesture.

"My dear wife, are you not angry anymore?" Lin Hai probed.

"Get lost, giveme get lost!" Ouyang Xiaoya's pretty face seemed covered in ice, yet her beautiful eyes seemed about to shoot fire.

"Alright, my dear wife, I'll make myself scarce," Lin Hai said with a sheepish grin, shrinking his neck.

"Hold it right there!" Lin Hai, who just took a step, halted in place, his foot suspended in mid-air, turned his head, and squeezed out a smile, "My dear wife, do you have any further instructions?"

"If I find out you dared to babble about today's event, I swear, I will castrate you!" Ouyang Xiaoya spat the words through gritted teeth.

Lin Hai bobbed his head like pounding garlic, repeatedly nodding and pledging, "Rest assured, my dear wife, I promise absolutely not to let a third person know about this. It's just between you and me, heaven knows, and earth knows."

"Beast, get out of here right now!" Ouyang Xiaoya was so furious her teeth ached with itchiness.

"I'm on it, getting out now!" Lin Hai shamelessly beat a hasty retreat.

"This beast." Seeing Lin Hai's lascivious manner, Ouyang Xiaoya felt like giving him a good whack.

Back at the doorway to his room, Lin Hai finally breathed a sigh of relief, having managed to bluff his way through.

Just as he was about to open the door, suddenly he heard Ouyang Ruoshuang's voice behind him.

"Eh? Brother-in-law, what are you sneaking around for?"

"Damn it!" Lin Hai cursed inwardly, turning around with a calm and composed expression on his face, he explained, "Brother-in-law was just taking a shower, when suddenly I found the water stopped, cough cough, I was about to check out what happened."

"Oh? Really?" Ouyang Ruoshuang looked at him skeptically.

"Of course, when has brother-in-law ever lied to anyone? I'm a three-time good man, otherwise why would your cousin fall for me?" Lin Hai said proudly, laughing smugly.

"But, brother-in-law, I think I saw you with cousin at the stairwell just now..." Ouyang Ruoshuang seemed to recall something and asked.

"Uh... that, you must be hallucinating. When a girl gets her period, excessive blood loss can lead to brain hypoxia, ultimately causing dizziness, you know?" Lin Hai stammered his explanation.

"Stop it, you're awful, brother-in-law." As soon as Ouyang Ruoshuang heard the topic concerning her period, she blushed and cried out in annoyance, covering her face as she scampered away.

"Hehe, trying to fight with me, changing the subject and poking at weak spots is my forte." Lin Hai chuckled proudly, turning the doorknob and entering the room to change clothes.

...

A few minutes later, Lin Hai emerged from changing clothes, reinvigorated.

If Ouyang Xiaoya were to see him now, she would probably want to kick him straight away.

Taking out his cellphone, Lin Hai dialed Judge's number.

"Little Judge, keep an eye on someone, a guy named what's-his-death... uh, not it, Lubis, a black assassin, ranked twenty-ninth in the Black Restricted Zone."

If someone knew that the one hailed by countless experts as a mysterious top-tier mercenary in the world, Judge, the nominal leader of the international number one mercenary company "Blood-Colored Reincarnation," was being called Little Judge, they would probably be shocked to death.

Judge's voice came through the phone, respectful and filled with endless admiration and excitement, "Big Brother, why would you suddenly be concerned with such a weakling? Do you need me to eliminate him right away?"

If Lubis heard Judge's assessment of his strength, he would probably die of frustration and sorrow on the spot.

"Uh, no need, I suspect that the incident involving your future sister-in-law might be connected to this guy. Just keep an eye on him, and notify me immediately of any developments." Lin Hai didn't need to hide anything from Judge, since he was the Legendary King Yan, and the two were brothers.

"Don't worry, Big Brother!" Judge said with reverence and determination.

Satisfied, Lin Hai hung up the phone. He wasn't foolish enough to trust a stranger who came to assassinate his wife. Healing Lubis was just a means to catch a big fish later on.

The full strength of "Blood-Colored Reincarnation," which he created, was now so vast that even he wasn't clear on its extent, but when it came to intelligence gathering, it was definitely one of the top entities, so that's why he spared Lubis.

Lighting a cigarette, Lin Hai stood at the window of his room in the villa, gazing into the distance, "My dear wife, don't worry, once upon a time, I got carried away and lost a precious chance due to folly, but with you now, I swear, I the King of Soldiers, Lin Hai, will not let you suffer the slightest harm!"

As if caught in memories from the past, in Lin Hai's despondent eyes, a terrifying gleam surfaced, if one were looking at him from behind at this moment, they would see, this seemingly indolent man bore an indescribable, elusive sense of vicissitude, and scars etched by the years...
