Dong, dong, dong, the man had just taken three steps when he abruptly stopped. Faced with Qin Hai, who was a head taller, he visibly showed fear. After hesitating for a moment, he suddenly grabbed a nearby chair, trembling as he struggled to lift it.
"Pervert, let... let go of my Qingya! If you dare, come at... come at me!" He shouted loudly, but upon seeing Qin Hai glare at him, the man surprisingly took a couple of steps back still holding the chair.
This person was none other than He Wei, who had been persistently bothering Lin Qingya. Initially, he wanted to play the hero and rescue her, but upon seeing Qin Hai's imposing figure, he immediately regretted it.
Qin Hai glanced at He Wei, who was still ten meters away. Despite the slick hairstyle and the flashy Armani outfit, He Wei's face was pale and yellow, with sunken eye sockets. His eyes lacked vitality, and his steps were unsteady, displaying the typical signs of excessive indulgence—a shameless playboy who enjoyed manipulating naive young girls. Qin Hai, having dealt with countless similar individuals before, was dismissive and only bothered with them in the past two years.
Qin Hai furrowed his brow. "What kind of talk is that? When did my wife become associated with you? Get lost or prepare to face consequences!"
He Wei hesitated, sizing up Qin Hai, especially the somewhat faded jeans he was wearing. He sneered, "Absolutely absurd. Qingya would never know someone like you, a poor guy. Stop the nonsense, release Qingya and leave immediately. Otherwise, when the police arrive, you won't get away easily!"
He then shouted to Lin Qingya, "Qingya, don't be afraid. I'm here, and no one can harm you!"
Lin Qingya heard He Wei's voice, and despite his questionable character, he was at least a living person. Thus, she managed to calm down from the heart-pounding scare a moment ago.
She discreetly peered through the gaps between her fingers at Qin Hai across from her, feeling puzzled. He had clearly died just now, so how could he have come back to life? Was it some kind of sham death?
At that moment, Qin Hai grinned widely, revealing a mouth full of white teeth, and he laughed at her again. Paired with the two vivid red streaks beneath his nose, it was undeniably frightening.
Lin Qingya was once again scared, quickly shutting her eyes.
"Wife, I don't want to waste time with this trash. Tell him whether you're really my wife," Qin Hai provocatively smiled at He Wei, leaning down close to Lin Qingya's ear and whispered, "Do as I say, or I'll tell him you just killed someone, and it happened to be your fiancé."
Qin Hai had figured it out; his wife might be beautiful, but she was too timid. Whether she was scared silly or something else, she seemed a bit foolish. In modern slang, she was acting all "cute and clueless," actually thinking he had died. Since that was the case, he might as well play along and tease her a bit more.
Upon hearing Qin Hai's words, Lin Qingya trembled involuntarily, lowering her hands. Her beautiful eyes widened with disbelief as she stared at Qin Hai, who was now very close.
"He really played dead. He actually played dead!"
A tremendous voice echoed in her mind, and her face instantly lost all color. Childhood memories of ghost stories told by the elderly rushed into her mind, instilling fear.
"I... I really didn't mean to. Please don't come closer... Don't come closer!" Lin Qingya, seeing Qin Hai approaching, was on the verge of tears.
"Jerk!" Suddenly, He Wei roared again from the side.
Despite feeling a bit uneasy about Qin Hai's towering figure, He Wei saw this as a rare opportunity. If played right, rescuing Lin Qingya could lead to winning her over, and the control of the entire Yafang Group, making it a lucrative deal.
With these thoughts in mind, He Wei's eyes lit up, a surge of motivation propelling him forward with the chair in hand, charging at Qin Hai.
Unfortunately for him, he had overestimated himself. While the chair wasn't too heavy, his body had long been weakened by indulgence. He couldn't control the chair, and it ended up leading him forward, wobbling and swaying, on the verge of falling at any moment.
Seeing He Wei's clumsy attempt, Qin Hai couldn't help but find it amusing. Although he had already identified this guy as a showoff, he didn't expect him to be such a total klutz.
What a combat power -999 scumbag!
Dealing with such a scumbag, Qin Hai was unwilling to exert much effort. He casually extended his foot, causing He Wei to tumble to the ground along with the chair. Qin Hai then nonchalantly placed his big foot on He Wei's face.
"Jerk, let me go! Let me go quickly! Do you know who I am?" He Wei struggled, but his efforts were in vain. Qin Hai's foot was like a mountain, firmly pressing down on him.
Ignoring the struggling scumbag, Qin Hai turned to Lin Qingya with a smile, "Wife, this guy barged into our house for no reason, damaged our door and chair. How do you want to handle him?"
"Let... let him go!" Lin Qingya was torn inside. On one hand, she wished He Wei would leave immediately. On the other hand, she secretly hoped he would stay, as facing the revived Qin Hai alone was terrifying.
"Did you hear that? My wife wants you to get lost!" Qin Hai kicked He Wei on the backside, releasing him.
He Wei, looking disheveled, got up and stared at Lin Qingya in shock, "Qingya, is what he said true?"
"Yes, he... he's my fiancé."
Lin Qingya had no other choice. Faced with either dealing with the resurrected Qin Hai alone or risking the exposure of a murder, especially to He Wei, she chose the lesser evil. The Yafang Group, her father's lifelong effort, couldn't be ruined by her hands.
Hearing Lin Qingya admit to being his fiancée, Qin Hai grinned widely, playfully kicking He Wei on the backside. "Kid, believe it now? Stop talking and get lost. By the way, you damaged our door and chair, so bring a repair fee of a hundred thousand."
"A hundred thousand!" He Wei, feeling like a cat with its tail stepped on, jumped up, shouting, "This is extortion!"
"Extortion it is. Will you pay or not?" Qin Hai glared menacingly, scaring He Wei a few steps back.
"Fine, fine, a perfect pair of adulterers!" Finally regaining his balance, He Wei sneered at Lin Qingya, "Others used to say you, Lin Qingya, were pure, aloof, and virtuous. Who would've thought you're a woman who likes to be dominated, and by such a lowlife? I bet those street vendors have more dignity than you. I must have been blind to like you."
"What did you say?"
Before Qin Hai could react, Lin Qingya stood up abruptly.
Her flawless face was now covered in frost, and her beautiful eyes were as cold as ice. Despite being a slender and fragile woman, at this moment, she emitted an unparalleled sense of strength, making it impossible to resist her commanding presence.
The room's temperature seemed to drop several degrees instantly.
A queen-like demeanor? Qin Hai was slightly surprised, not expecting his seemingly naive wife to have such a powerful side.
On the other hand, He Wei was completely silenced by Lin Qingya's imposing aura. He stammered, unable to utter a word, his face turning an unsightly mix of blue and white.
Lin Qingya stared icily at He Wei, the frost on her pretty face deepening. "I like whatever kind of man I want, and it's not for you to judge. I solemnly warn you, if I hear any more slanderous remarks like this, be prepared to receive a lawyer's letter. I swear, I will make sure you end up in jail, and not even your father can save you!"
Sweat broke out on He Wei's forehead as he realized the gravity of what he had just done. He had actually insulted Lin Qingya to her face!
要知道, facing Lin Qingya in her queen-like state, everyone in the entire Yafang Group, including her father, knew better than to provoke her, let alone this worthless guy with a combat power of -999.
"I... I'm leaving." He Wei dared not stay any longer and walked toward the door in a dejected manner.
"Hold on, bring the money for repairing the gate first!" To He Wei's surprise, Qin Hai suddenly caught up, reaching into his pocket and pulling everything out.
Wallet, phone, and even an unopened condom.
Without any hesitation, Qin Hai stuffed all the money from the wallet into his own pocket and raised the condom, looking at He Wei with disdain. "Carrying this thing with you, truly a scum! Get lost!"
Given a kick by Qin Hai, He Wei stumbled, and as he raised his head, he found Lin Qingya also looking at him with a face full of disdain, her gaze sharp as a knife.
His face turned crimson instantly, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into. He quickly picked up the wallet and phone that Qin Hai had thrown away and fled from the villa in embarrassment.
"This guy is really scum. Wife, don't be angry. If he dares to talk nonsense again, I promise to beat him until his own mother won't recognize him."
Qin Hai turned back with a playful smile, only to find Lin Qingya still glaring at him with a cold expression.
The queen-like state hadn't subsided?
Qin Hai didn't take it seriously, casually putting the condom into his pocket and pulling out the wad of money he had confiscated, grinning, "Wife, here's the money to fix the gate and chair. Check if it's enough; if not, I'll go get more from that guy."
Lin Qingya didn't take the money, just staring at Qin Hai coldly, her sharp gaze seeming to penetrate his entire being.
She had only been temporarily stunned by fear earlier, but now, as she calmed down, intense doubt surged in her mind.
Qin Hai felt a chill down his spine being scrutinized by Lin Qingya. He muttered to himself, wondering what this woman was up to. Was she planning to use a big stick against him?
At that moment, Lin Qingya suddenly extended three slender, fair fingers, swiftly gripping the tender flesh around Qin Hai's waist and giving it a hard twist.
Qin Hai was stunned for a moment, and then another wail of misery echoed through the villa, startling birds that had just returned to their nests.
"Damn liar, you really didn't die!" Lin Qingya stared fixedly at Qin Hai, her silvery teeth almost biting through.
She exerted more force, twisting him 360 degrees.
"Ah..."
