After Jiang Hang and Lin Chunlan, a couple, entered, the husband Jiang Hang asked, "Excuse me, who is Boss Qin Lin?"

"I am!" Qin Lin frowned as he looked at the two.

Jiang Hang hurried to Qin Lin and said, "Boss Qin, we've come to discuss the previous matter with you. The video was our fault, and I hope you can forgive us."

As he spoke, he pulled his wife along and said, "Quick, apologize to Boss Qin."

Lin Chunlan reluctantly said, "I'm sorry, can we just let this go now?"

Qin Lin found her perfunctory apology laughable. "You say it's over and it's over? What's the point of laws then?"

Hearing this, Lin Chunlan became displeased. "What do you want? We've already lost a lot of money, paying our cousin 250,000 yuan for this. We've learned our lesson."

"What does that have to do with me?" Qin Lin truly felt this woman was here to make a joke.

Seeing that Qin Lin wasn't accepting her apology, Lin Chunlan's face filled with indignation. "What do you mean by that? Calling the police was just to extort money, wasn't it? How much do you want?"

Jiang Hang panicked upon hearing his wife's words. "Boss Qin, she didn't mean it like that!"

He was truly miserable.

Before, his legal awareness had been weak, and he thought it was just a small matter to have his cousin help his wife vent her anger. He never expected the subsequent events. Even his cousin's account, which had been built for three years, was banned.

Moreover, his cousin had recorded their conversation. When asked if what they said was true, his wife casually replied that it was all true, and the majority of the responsibility fell entirely on them as a couple.

The crucial point was that his cousin sued them, demanding compensation for damages. Under the mediation of their family members, they paid their cousin 250,000 yuan to withdraw the lawsuit, but they also became enemies.

Now, they brought his wife here precisely to seek a private settlement with Boss Qin and let this matter pass.

Who knew his wife, accustomed to being unreasonable and overbearing, would say anything that came to mind.

Lin Chunlan, however, was displeased with her husband's attitude. "That's exactly what I mean. Jiang Hang, can't you see? The other party just wants to extort money like your cousin."

Clearly, she was still upset about paying her cousin 250,000 yuan and was now taking it out on Qin Lin.

Qin Lin, however, laughed in anger. "Then I'll tell you, I really don't want your money. I just want to see you face legal responsibility. When a child makes a mistake, and the mother doesn't educate them, I'll educate you, the mother, on behalf of society, making you the best negative example for your child."

"What nonsense! Chen Dabe, throw them out."

He had never considered settling with them.

How many people in society were driven to despair or even suicide by the harm caused by others' rumors and slander?

These people could ruin a person's life with a few words. If the situation had been reversed, and he hadn't been able to prove his innocence, his newly purchased villa and meticulously crafted flower sea would have been ruined, and he would have been left with an indelible stain on his reputation.

At that time, the other party would probably have worn a smug expression.

Now, these rumor-mongers wanted a simple private settlement with just a few words? There was no such easy way out.

Hearing his boss's words, Chen Dabe didn't hesitate and led several security guards forward to drive the couple out.

Lin Chunlan remained stubborn. "Qin, stop pretending to be noble. How much money do you want?"

"That's enough!" Chen Dabe couldn't help but shout. "Are you brainless, woman? Do you know how much money our boss spent to create this flower sea? Our villa's revenue today is nearly 200,000 yuan. Does our boss care about your family's meager sum?"

"If our boss doesn't want to settle, you can just wait for the court's judgment! You really can't control your loose tongue."

After speaking, Chen Dabe instructed the security guards, "Throw them out. If they don't leave, call the police and have them escorted away."

Chen Dabe's words were harsh, but they made the couple's faces turn extremely ugly, especially when they heard that the villa's daily revenue was close to 200,000 yuan, almost as much as they had paid Chen Lin. Everyone knew that such attractions had high profits.

Jiang Hang was truly panicked. This meant that the other party genuinely didn't want to settle, and the court would indeed rule against his wife.

The critical issue was that if his wife was convicted and left with a criminal record, it would even affect their child's future.

Jiang Hang was anxious and tried to pull his wife back inside to see Qin Lin, but the security guards firmly blocked them.

"Please, let me in to see Boss Qin. We were truly wrong." Jiang Hang immediately pleaded with the security guards, trying to force his way in as he spoke.

The security guards ignored the couple. They didn't want to lose their jobs. Seeing the couple persistently trying to break through, one guard, faithfully carrying out Chen Dabe's orders, took out his phone and called the police.

Soon, the police arrived and took the crestfallen couple away.

In the lobby.

Zhao Moqing listened to the distant police sirens, her eyebrows slightly furrowed. "Qin Lin, what were these two thinking? If their child had made a mistake, all it would have taken was an apology and paying the bill. It would have been a matter of a few hundred yuan."

Qin Lin smiled as he looked at Zhao Moqing. "This is the importance of marrying the right wife. Marrying the wrong one brings unrest to the household, constant trouble, and even disaster. If you accidentally marry such an unreasonable wife, you're bound to have terrible luck. Do you think everyone is as understanding, smart, and virtuous as you are?"

Zhao Moqing was surprised that Qin Lin was praising her as he spoke. She shyly pinched his arm. "Everyone is still watching!"

Beside them, Gao Yaoyao and the others immediately lowered their heads, pretending to be diligently cleaning.

Who would have thought that the boss would suddenly start showing off his affection?

Zhao Moqing then suddenly said to Gao Yaoyao, "Yaoyao, the villa's official Douyin account should be approved tomorrow. Tomorrow afternoon, I'll rent a set of Hanfu, and you can help me film a video of the ancient-style flower sea for promotion."

"Okay, Sister Moqing," Gao Yaoyao replied sweetly.

The villa had become incredibly popular these days. She had initially been the model for the promotional videos, and her personal Douyin account had also gained many followers. Although she only had a little over 2,000 followers, it was still a joy for her, an ordinary person who originally had only a single-digit follower count.

"Moqing, why don't you resign and come help me? I also need a financial manager," Qin Lin seized the opportunity to suggest to Zhao Moqing.

As the villa grew, so did the various management issues.

Especially in financial matters, he hadn't hired a formal accountant yet. Firstly, there was no suitable person, and secondly, there was the issue of trust. A significant portion of his profits came from zero-cost trades of in-game items. When filing taxes, accounting was necessary, and hiring someone with ulterior motives would be troublesome.

Zhao Moqing, who worked at the tax bureau, was the most suitable person.

"Ah, is this a good idea?" Zhao Moqing frowned, her delicate eyebrows knitting together.

Qin Lin said directly, "What's not to like? You're my wife, and this villa is mine and yours. Isn't it only natural for us, as a couple, to run our own business together?"

Gao Yaoyao and the others wore expressions of helplessness. More dog food.

They exchanged glances and quietly left the hall. Their boss just kept feeding them dog food non-stop.

Seeing Gao Yaoyao and the others' actions, Zhao Moqing pinched Qin Lin again. "That's not what I meant. I really want to help you and manage our own business, but my current job was arranged through my uncle-in-law's connections. I've only been there for a year; wouldn't it be bad to leave directly?"

Qin Lin smiled and said, "Moqing, our villa will have significant tax payments next month, and we'll have a lot of dealings with the tax bureau in the future. Do you think your uncle-in-law would be unhappy? However, you should give him a heads-up about your resignation in advance."

"Sigh, I just said you were smart, and now you're being silly again."

Zhao Moqing was clearly displeased upon hearing the last sentence and pinched Qin Lin again. "How dare you call me silly."

She naturally understood Qin Lin's meaning. If she left, another position would open up, and many people would want to step in. Informing her uncle-in-law in advance would allow him to make arrangements or do favors.

Moreover, given the villa's current situation, the tax revenue would definitely not be small. Based on its current status alone, it was already a high-quality taxpayer in You City.

"Then I'll go back and inform my uncle-in-law first," Zhao Moqing said, having figured it out.

As a woman, she needed to work hard and strive alongside her husband, fully supporting him, to make their life truly fulfilling.
