Mr. Gu's wife is a little naughty

"I'm telling you, don't think that I'll be responsible for you just because you registered with me. I'll only take you in for one night, and you have to move out tomorrow." Tian Tian's words revealed unquestionable determination. She threw the quilt in her hand fiercely onto the sofa, then put her hands on her hips, and looked at Lin Tao fiercely.

"How can you be like this? You made me sleep under a bridge on my first wedding night. This is the greatest humiliation in my life. I finally got home but I'm not allowed to sleep on a bed. Is there any justice in this world?" Lin Tao's face darkened. He pouted and his voice, though small, was full of dissatisfaction and complaints.

"It's up to you to sleep or not. If you're not satisfied, you can leave! I'll go open the door for you." Tian Tian's words were filled with indifference. She turned around and walked towards the door with a firm step. Her firm attitude made Lin Tao, who had been a bit temperamental, feel like a deflated ball.

"Hey, don't worry, don't worry," Lin Tao hurriedly called her back, a flattering smile on his face. He quickly spread the quilt on the sofa neatly, comforting himself like a little adult, "Having a place to live is a blessing, how could I be picky? You go back to your room and rest, I'll go to bed right away."

After saying that, he deliberately pretended to take off his clothes, and that funny look immediately made Tian Tian feel a little embarrassed. She quickly turned her head away, and a rare blush appeared on her face.

Tian Tian's face instantly turned cold as ice. She glared at Lin Tao angrily and said, "People like you are so shameless. I was so blind that I got a marriage certificate with you so impulsively." Before she finished speaking, she stomped her feet in anger. With a bang, the bedroom door slammed shut behind her, as heavy and resolute as her mood at the moment.

Lin Tao turned around, facing the closed door, a scornful smile on his face. "If you want to play with me, Lin, then it depends on whether you have the ability."

As soon as he finished speaking, the phone in his pocket rang at an inopportune moment. He frowned slightly and picked up the call impatiently. A hurried and nervous voice came from the other end of the line, "Boss, something big has happened! The Red Scorpions have started attacking us again!"

"Oh my god, are these Red Scorpion people crazy? Why are they staring at us every day?" Lin Tao felt as if his head was hit by a sledgehammer, and the swelling and pain were unbearable.

The Red Scorpions, a name that has loomed like a ghost in the hacker world in recent years, are both mysterious and dangerous. A brief encounter with Lin Tao's "Cobra" team in the past has instilled a deep obsession with the "Cobra" in the Red Scorpions, a rage they feel they cannot quell until they completely defeat the "Cobra."

Now, the harassment of the Red Scorpions is everywhere like a shadow. They cause some minor troubles to the "Cobra" from time to time. Although these troubles are insignificant in Lin Tao's eyes, the long-term entanglement and harassment is like ants gnawing at bones, which is very annoying.

"I don't have a computer with me right now. You guys can handle this on yourselves." Lin Tao rubbed his furrowed brow, a flicker of helplessness in his eyes. He knew the Red Scorpions' harassment wouldn't stop, but at the moment, he was powerless. He could only place his hopes on the team members, hoping they could find a solution quickly.

"But, Boss, this time is different. The Red Scorpion leader has personally taken action, acting like a madman. He has hacked into the accounts of several of our companies, and the losses have reached 100 billion."

"What?" Lin Tao really couldn't sit still this time. He widened his eyes in shock and his voice rose a few degrees involuntarily.

"Keep your voice down!" Tian Tian's discontent and warning suddenly came from the direction of the bedroom. Lin Tao immediately realized his mistake and quickly stuck out his tongue, trying to suppress his voice, making his words even lower and more cautious.

"Are you sure... it was the Red Scorpion's leader who took action personally?" Lin Tao confirmed again, his voice filled with solemnity and seriousness.

"Sure, I'll send you a photo." There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone.

A moment later, Lin Tao's phone screen lit up, and with a crisp beep, a new message arrived. He quickly swiped the screen and opened the image. What appeared before him was an exotic yet somewhat eerie image—a head resembling a little witch, woven from countless codes.

Lin Tao's brows furrowed as he scrutinized the picture. "Damn it, it's her, that weird, crazy woman." He cursed inwardly, but remained calm.

"It's okay, I'll bear it!" Lin Tao gritted his teeth and squeezed out the words, "I recently heard that their leader just bought a luxurious villa in Siam. Send a few people to fill it with sewage."

"Huh?" The person on the other end of the phone didn't seem to understand what he meant.

"Bullshit!" Lin Tao's lips curled up into an elusive evil smile, like a ghostly light in the dark night. "Her villa is priceless, and even hundreds of millions of dollars might not be enough to buy it. Just think of it as a small interest I collect from them."

"But they are still attacking us fiercely right now." The voice on the other end of the phone sounded a little anxious.

"That's fine. Just give them the company they're attacking as bait." Lin Tao's tone was nonchalant, as if he was discussing a trivial matter. "Go inform Lingzi. She'll know how to handle it."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Tao, like a cunning cheetah, leisurely reclined on the sofa. An unreadable glint flickered in his eyes, as if brewing a deeper plan. "Red Scorpion, hum, interesting," he muttered to himself, as if challenging some unknown entity in the air. "It's been a long time since anyone dared to challenge the authority of our 'Cobra'."

At this moment, a sharp, piercing scream suddenly rang out from the depths of the bedroom, like an invisible lightning bolt, instantly shattering the tranquility of the night. Lin Tao was so startled by the sudden scream that he almost jumped off the soft sofa, his heartbeat instantly accelerating, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.

"What's wrong?" He sat up anxiously, his eyes fixed on the direction of the bedroom, his voice full of worry and confusion.

A moment later, Tian Tian's slightly panting response came from behind the bedroom door: "No...it's okay, I just saw a cockroach." Although she tried to keep her voice calm, the trembling and rapid breathing in it were difficult to conceal.

As soon as he finished speaking, the light in the bedroom suddenly went out like a extinguished candle. The entire space was instantly swallowed by thick darkness, without a trace of light shining through.

The sudden darkness, like the shadow of a giant beast, quietly enveloped Lin Tao's heart, bringing with it an inexplicable fear. He instinctively reached into his pocket and turned on the light function on his phone. The faint, pale light cast upon his face, like a lonely beacon, flickering in the endless darkness. With this ray of light, Lin Tao's uneasiness subsided slightly.

Ever since the incident fifteen years ago, Lin Tao's nights had become intolerant of darkness. That incident, like a nightmare, was etched deeply into his mind, leaving him with an unspeakable fear of the dark. Whenever night fell, he had to ensure he had a light source nearby to sleep peacefully.

The night was long and quiet. Lin Tao lay in bed, staring at the darkness on the ceiling, his mind racing. Yet, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't dispel the fear within him. It wasn't until the sky gradually brightened and sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains that he was awakened from the long darkness. A new day had begun.
