Chapter 413: Chapter 246: Shi San’s Edition of Holy Water, Billionaire Brian (Happy Dragon Boat Festival)

Feeling Linda clinging tighter, Brian quickly hoisted her into the air and tossed her back onto the bed.

"You should be grateful that child marriage isn’t a thing where you live," Brian teased, "or with you being so mature for your age, you might already be a mother of several kids by now."

Linda shook her head, denying Brian’s suggestion:

"No, I wouldn’t be that naive.

I just like your looks and that visible sense of security you have, plus, in Florida, there’s something called ’T marriage.’ I knew a girl once, she was just in her teens, and she married an old man."

"Teens?"

Brian was taken aback.

"Yes."

Linda nodded as she jumped off the bed,

"She told me that the man raped her. He was a deacon in the parish, and there are many believers where I come from. Her entire family are believers.

It was a scandal.

So the case ended with them getting married.

Later, when I looked up the laws, I found out as long as the girl’s parents and the local judge agree, she could be legally married off.

What’s worse, anyone under eighteen doesn’t have the right to sign any legal documents for divorce.

She had no choice but to accept her fate without help from anyone.

Actually, it wasn’t just my classmate.

It was only after reading an investigative paper by an organization for the protection of women and children that I realized there are tens of thousands of these cases registered in the Federation every year, allowing these perverts to commit crimes legally.

From that moment on,

I even thought about if something like that happened to me, I’d shoot the man dead.

Luckily, I was fortunate enough not to have gone through such an ordeal.

Otherwise, I’d likely be a murderer now."

Her words came out slow and firm, clearly not made up but something she had truly experienced and given serious thought to.

Brian fell silent for a moment before nodding, "Alright, but I really am not the right person for you, and even if Susan weren’t in the picture, I prefer girls with a fuller figure. You’re just a little bean sprout."

Linda looked down at the tips of her feet and fell silent.

Brian’s comment hurt her more than any of his previous rejections.

...

The ’little bean sprout’ remark Brian made kept causing Linda ongoing hurt.

Even the next day, when the two of them reached the B6 group’s office building, she was listless and without energy.

Upon seeing Brian, Susan gave him a warm hug and kiss despite the presence of a bunch of colleagues in the office.

It was pretty much a public announcement.

Green whistled and made a fuss.

The Teddy combo had mixed reactions.

Ivan showed a hint of regret.

Glenn was full of envy.

Leader Susan might be a little violent, but she was beautiful, capable, clean, and had a background...

Forget it, no more thinking.

Remembering how he nearly got seduced by a ladyboy, Glenn resolved to upgrade his aesthetics and taste.

No more looking for one-night stands in bars.

He planned to look in the gym.

Old Harden and the others reacted more normally, just clapping even though they didn’t understand why they were clapping, but they clapped anyway.

Linda stood somewhat awkwardly behind Brian.

She felt superfluous in this unfamiliar environment.

Thankfully, Shi San came to her rescue.

Seeing Susan hogging Brian for so long, it started barking agitatedly.

Susan let go of Brian with a hint of annoyance and glared at Shi San, "Hey, make it clear to me, are you saying I stole your boss? He’s my guy, mine, not yours!"

Shi San tucked its tail and looked at Brian with a pitiful expression.

Brian laughed heartily and crouched down to pat Shi San’s head.

It felt good to be back.

Though he had executed over six hundred lives in the past two days, and it had affected him, making his eyes noticeably more intense.

But just seeing these familiar faces eased his mood a lot.

Perhaps this was the meaning of companionship.

...

Brian didn’t forget about Linda.

He began introducing her to his colleagues.

When mentioning Linda was only fifteen, Brian shot Glenn a meaningful look.

Glenn was indiscriminate and adventurous, and despite his deceiving looks, Brian was really worried Linda might fall for Glenn’s tricks.

Glenn put up his hands defensively, "Hey, Brian, don’t look at me like that. I’m not a beast; I wouldn’t make a move on someone so young."

Green rolled his eyes, "Yeah, right. Just last night you were telling dirty jokes to three young girls, ending with asking who wanted to lose their virginity."

Hearing this, Susan’s expression immediately turned cold: "Glenn, I thought you had some standards!"

She reached towards her waist.

Glenn wilted, "I was just trying to show them that bars are full of bad guys, and they shouldn’t be sneaking in at their age."

Ivan quickly added, "It’s true, Glenn does have standards."

Watching the chaotic scene unfold, Linda curled her toes inside her shoes.

Why does this place feel so different from the law enforcement agency she had imagined?

Where was the cool vibe of the movies, with all the agents in suits and sunglasses looking so intimidatingly handsome?

She pulled on Brian’s arm, "I remember you mentioned a friend named Shi San, is he here too?"

"Woof woof~"

Shi San, hearing someone call its name, eagerly barked at Linda.

Linda looked down at Shi San.

It was gazing at her with its big eyes, batting adorably, its tail wagging rapidly.

Linda: ..

Cute, but...

She turned her head to Brian, who gave her a confirming nod.
