Make it trending?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng was held in Lin Ying’s arms like a child, upright and facing her. He frowned at her: “It’s possible, but instinctively, it feels unlikely.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little fox let out a confused whimper. After placing An Sheng back in the sunroom, Lin Ying opened the NotePlatform trending list in front of him and began scrolling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【11. The Tycoon’s Hedgehog Bride.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【19. Da Ji Exposes Food Safety.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【49. King Cobra? Tame It!】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“???”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After browsing the video content, question marks slowly formed above An Sheng’s head. He complained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m a male fox! Even if you must mislabel me, call me male—but why Da Ji? I’ve practically glued a black circle to the camera lens!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the trending videos directly involving An Sheng, most comments mocked the clickbait titles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after mocking the clickbait, every subsequent comment praised how adorable the fox was—especially his proud, upright posture, like a perfectly edible large loaf of bread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a clip from a livestream recording: Qing had filmed An Sheng asking her to prepare a drink and uploaded it to NotePlatform. Somehow, it went trending.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In “The Tycoon’s Hedgehog Bride,” the video first showed Lin Hao and the golden-edged hedgehog appearing. Their entrance was straight out of a tycoon novel—bodyguards holding umbrellas to clear the way, radiating menace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two white cuties sat facing each other, one whimpering softly, the other squeaking in reply, chatting happily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once Qing rotated the camera toward the tea set and began speaking with Lin Hao, the warm, fluffy comments vanished. The new ones turned brutally practical: “Does the tycoon need a single dog?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Others directly accused them of putting on a show and wasting resources. The comments and reviews became wildly complex.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All trending videos related to Qing were filled with question marks from start to finish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Early that morning, news of the king cobra had spread through the village. By noon, Qing ran to the edge of the agricultural market and shouted loudly, luring out the snakes. Amidst a sea of question marks in the video, she crouched down and moved the entire family up the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All sizes and types of venomous snakes rode on her electric tricycle, carried off in one trip by Qing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Though I witnessed it firsthand, from an outsider’s perspective, it still feels utterly absurd.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After watching the video, An Sheng couldn’t help but complain. He took Lin Ying’s phone and typed into the notes:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Can videos like this even trend? I genuinely can’t imagine it.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it doesn’t matter—it’s perfect for boosting Qing’s livestream popularity. When we get back, I’ll change her livestream name. Talking about tea culture for a month and never trending? People who want to sip tea don’t need to be taught; those who don’t won’t even look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After venting about the livestream, An Sheng raised his hand and typed something serious into the notes:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【By the way! I’d like to ask—do you have connections in America to get someone out of prison? My little brother’s trapped inside. I want to pull him out.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In an American prison?” Lin Ying blinked slightly at the wildly broad topic from the Fox Lord. After a moment’s thought, she spoke softly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It depends on the crime. As long as it’s not assassination of the president or a crime that sparked nationwide outrage, we can arrange bail.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【???】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ying’s words made a string of question marks float above An Sheng’s head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Lin Ying spoke delicately, An Sheng understood her meaning perfectly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In America, aside from genuine terrorists, we can get anyone out—no matter what they did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Is that reasonable? My little brother was framed by a gang boss for tax evasion and exposing his illegal immigrant status.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ying’s expression didn’t change as she read the screen:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As long as it doesn’t involve public opinion, overseas cases are easy to resolve. If already sentenced, just transfer him from a federal prison to a private one—pay enough, and even the guards will clock him in daily.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If trial hasn’t started and you want to avoid any conviction, send a lobbyist to negotiate a reinterpretation of charges. Deposit the money into a foundation, go through the motions, and he walks free.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If they refuse, Lin Clan’s overseas legal team has the resources to gather evidence and file endless civil suits—suing the entire department, down to the janitors. We have endless greenbacks; they don’t have the stamina.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“One loss means they face a bill they can never pay.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Their official duties belong to the federal government. If they refuse to back down, the debt becomes theirs. The federal government won’t cover litigation costs for their employees’ personal affairs.” Lin Ying spoke slowly, recounting Lin Clan’s past dealings with judicial authorities—and how they crushed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The job is your boss’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The debt is yours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your boss won’t pay your bills. Don’t dream of unrealistic help. Do us a favor—we’ll give you a sinecure in our group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Why do you sound so familiar with this?】 An Sheng asked Lin Ying with a strange expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We have real-world experience.” Lin Ying didn’t elaborate on her past. Instead, she asked: “Tell me the man’s details. I’ll have our overseas legal team contact you. Since he was framed, this should be resolved quickly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ying said it could be resolved—not what to do if it couldn’t.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it couldn’t be resolved? Fine. Just add a few more homeless people to the streets of California. Assign Chen Zhi a bodyguard in the alliance prison. After a while, move him to a private prison—go out in the morning, return to his “hotel” at night to clock in and sleep.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No wonder Lin Clan, run by Ma Keqin, is so ruthless. But somehow, introducing Chen Zhi to Lin Clan feels… off.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Ying took Chen Zhi’s information, stepped out, and said she’d make a call. An Sheng’s face twisted as he recalled Lin Clan’s rise to power—and Chen Zhi’s actions in America.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No no no! I originally wanted to bring Chen Zhi back to Zhangxizhen and let him live his damn rich-kid life quietly. But now I’ve handed over a stellar resume to an even more ruthless clan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【The wish for 500K USD has been fulfilled. The moment Lin Ying dialed the call, fate was sealed. In prison, beaten by gang enforcers, Chen Zhi had killed four in self-defense and was locked in solitary confinement, gritting his teeth in fury.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Now, with the Fox Lord’s protection and ties to Lin Clan, Chen Zhi is no longer alone.】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Wish Power +6】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng stared, dumbfounded, at the faintly glowing wish list in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chen Zhi’s wish power +6?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Holy shit! What the hell do you want? Are you planning to eat live spiritual beasts and rival Qing’s appetite?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing 【Wish Power +6】, the Fox Lord sat down hard on the sofa, genuinely startled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve already taken care of it.” Lin Ying lightly knocked before entering, her mood seemingly cheerful, a barely perceptible spark in her eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On her usually impassive, serene face, a faint softness appeared as she looked at the Fox Lord.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ying ying ying”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An Sheng stared blankly at Lin Ying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can we change the subject? I don’t want to hear about that brat right now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s talk about going to Hailinglong. That brat’s nearly gone divine—don’t mention him anymore. I feel like I just pushed him into a firepit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I won’t watch anything without a Chen Zhi version. Bare-handed, he took on four in prison—and killed them all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1261,"2026-06-20T23:19:16.017Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","ba63e5bd79eb36c28d9743d06ccfae47e9213ebecc10ebf87b1397b9708e28f0","the-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-chapter-187","the-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-chapter-185",354,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-fox-has-no-malicious-intent-cover.jpg"]
