You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

2:30 a.m.

A villa area on a hillside in the suburbs of Jiangcheng City.

The black RS7 drove into Ye Qingcheng's private estate like a ghost.

Lin Chen got out of the car and walked straight to the main villa.

When the black-clad bodyguards along the way saw that it was Lin Chen, they all bowed their heads in greeting, and even the routine checks were waived.

Within the Ye Group's security system, Lin Chen's authority even surpasses that of Ye Qingcheng herself.

Lin Chen pushed open the heavy oak door to the study.

The crystal chandelier in the study emitted a soft light.

Ye Qingcheng was sitting behind a large mahogany desk, rubbing her temples with both hands, her beautiful face showing an unusual weariness.

Today she wore an extremely form-fitting black silk nightgown with a very low neckline, exposing large expanses of her fair skin to the air.

Her skirt rolled up slightly as she sat, revealing two long, straight legs.

This unguarded languor and sexiness is enough to drive any man crazy.

But at this moment, Ye Qingcheng's mood had plummeted to rock bottom.

"husband……"

Seeing Lin Chen walk in, Ye Qingcheng seemed to have found her pillar of support, and her voice carried a hint of vulnerability that she would never normally show.

She stood up and threw herself into Lin Chen's arms, wrapping her arms tightly around his waist.

Lin Chen took the opportunity to put his arm around her slender waist, the familiar cool scent of Chanel No. 5 lingering around his nose.

He touched her soft, long hair with remarkable ease.

"What's wrong? Even if the sky falls, I'll hold it up."

Lin Chen's voice was deep and reassuring.

Ye Qingcheng raised her head, her eyes slightly red.

"Sky Dome Group has made its move."

"They used some unknown means to maliciously short our Ye family's three core shell companies overseas before the US stock market closed tonight."

"Moreover, our domestic supply chain has also been devastated, with three of our upstream rare metal suppliers simultaneously announcing unilateral breach of contract and ceasing to supply us."

Ye Qingcheng bit her red lips, her eyes revealing a sense of unwillingness.

"When the A-share market opens tomorrow, Ye's new energy sector will definitely experience consecutive limit-down days."

"They want to crush us with their sheer financial power!"

After hearing this, Lin Chen's lips curled into an extremely cold smile.

The Sky Dome Group acted even faster than he had imagined.

After their physical assassination attempt was foiled, they immediately launched a financial strangulation.

"Does having a large amount of capital make you invincible?"

Lin Chen released Ye Qingcheng, walked to the desk, and pulled out a chair to sit down.

"Qingcheng, open your computer with the highest privileges."

Ye Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, but out of absolute trust in Lin Chen, she entered both retinal and fingerprint passwords without hesitation to unlock the super terminal that was directly connected to the Ye Group's core financial system.

Lin Chen interlaced his fingers and loosened his joints.

A combination of god-level hacking skills and god-level actuarial expertise erupts simultaneously!

At that moment, his brain transformed into a quantum computer of an ultra-high dimension.

Lin Chen's hands moved across the keyboard like a blur, the typing so rapid it was like a torrential downpour.

He neither defended Ye's stock nor sought new suppliers.

The best defense is the most ruthless offense.

Lin Chen directly retrieved the "ghost Trojan" he had planted in the motherboard BIOS chip of Xinghai New Materials Company the night before last from the dark web.

"Since Xinghai New Materials is Tianqiong Group's most important R&D front in Jiangcheng, I'll cut off their arm first."

Lin Chen slammed down the Enter key.

The activation command was instantly and accurately sent to the underground core server of Xinghai New Materials through countless virtual jump pads.

The dormant Trojan horse suddenly awoke and spread like wildfire, like a virus.

Within just ten seconds, Lin Chen forcibly took over and locked all the basic control permissions of the precision experimental equipment and supercomputing center on the third basement floor of Xinghai Company!

Immediately afterwards, Lin Chen started the data extraction program.

Lin Chen packaged and compressed the core patent data of Xinghai Company, which had cost billions of yuan to develop, regarding polymer conductive coatings and microclimate intervention.

"Honey, what are you doing?"

Ye Qingcheng stood behind Lin Chen, staring at the rapidly scrolling green code on the screen, completely unable to understand it.

"I'm bleeding the Sky Dome Group dry."

Lin Chen sneered and anonymously and free of charge published these core patent data on several of the world's largest dark web hacker forums and open-source materials science websites!

"Once these patents are open-sourced, Xinghai New Materials' valuation will drop to zero by tomorrow morning."

"The tens of billions of yuan that Tianqiong Group invested in their research and development have all gone down the drain."

But it's not over yet.

Using the immense computing power of a [God-level Actuary], Lin Chen instantly infiltrated several offshore account networks of the Sky Dome Group overseas.

He didn't steal the money because that would trigger the highest level of alarm.

He simply and discreetly altered the timestamps and routing nodes of their fund transfers, forcibly locking the hundreds of billions of yuan in market-stabilizing funds that the Sky Dome Group had prepared to continue shorting the Ye family the next day into a financial black hole, making them unusable for 48 hours!

"A beauty that could topple a city".

Lin Chen stopped what he was doing and turned to look at Ye Qingcheng, whose face was filled with shock.

"I've already cut off the financial chain of the Sky Dome Group. The news of Star Sea Company's collapse will spread throughout the financial world first thing tomorrow morning."

Lin Chen's eyes flashed with an extremely domineering light.

"Now, mobilize all of the Ye Group's liquid assets, plus your personal savings."

"Tomorrow, as soon as the A-share market opens, I'll short all three traditional energy companies under the Tianqiong Group!"

"I'll show them what the consequences will be if they mess with my woman!"

Ye Qingcheng looked at the completed hacking interface on the screen, and then at Lin Chen, who was sitting in the chair, strategizing and exuding domineering aura.

An extremely strong sense of security and a desire to conquer exploded in her heart.

She has always fought alone in the business world, and is used to disguising herself with a cold mask.

But in front of this man, all her pretense was ruthlessly torn away, leaving only the most primal submission.

"husband……"

Ye Qingcheng's voice became extremely hoarse and alluring.

She didn't care about stocks or business wars at all.

She straddled Lin Chen's lap, wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, and kissed his lips with intense passion.

This kiss was filled with endless gratitude, adoration, and long-suppressed desire.

Lin Chen gently lifted her pert buttocks, feeling the amazing elasticity and warmth beneath her silk nightgown.

He responded to Ye Qingcheng's demands in an extremely domineering manner, pressing her tightly against himself.

The temperature in the study rose sharply.
