On the first floor in the living room,
Qin Hai feigned rubbing his waist, grimacing and yelling, "Wife, you're too rough. I'm almost numb here!"
"Don't call me your wife!" Lin Qingya, with an angry face, stared coldly at Qin Hai. This scoundrel not only intruded into the bathroom trying to assault her, but also, after the failed attempt, played dead to deceive her. It was utterly shameless, considering her father's trust in him, letting him stay in the villa and marrying her to him.
"Hehe, even though we haven't married yet, isn't it just a matter of time? Besides, wouldn't it feel closer if I call you that?" Qin Hai smirked, looking at Lin Qingya's stern expression. His smile froze when he saw her serious face, quickly changing his tone, "Okay, if you don't like it, I won't call you 'wife' for now. I'll just call you Qingya."
"Don't call my name either!" Lin Qingya coldly snorted, "My father trusted you so much, and I never expected you to be this kind of person! Besides assaulting and playing dead, what else are you capable of?"
Qin Hai, looking aggrieved, said, "Qingya, you're really misunderstanding me. I just got home when you were taking a shower. I urgently needed to use the bathroom and had no idea you were inside. By the way, doesn't your room have a bathroom? Why did you use the downstairs one?"
"I—" Lin Qingya hesitated for a moment, her momentum weakening. She continued, "The bathroom in my room is broken, is that not okay?"
"That makes sense. You didn't tell me you were showering downstairs, so this incident can only be considered an accident," Qin Hai spread his hands innocently.
Watching Qin Hai, Lin Qingya couldn't contain her anger and continued questioning, "Couldn't you hear someone inside? I think you did it on purpose. Don't forget, after entering, you even tried to touch me. If I didn't have a stick, I might have been... taken advantage of by you!"
"You're really misunderstanding me. I just saw you falling on the floor as soon as I entered. I just wanted to help you up, but who knew you would hit me with a stick," Qin Hai explained with a helpless expression, rubbing his head.
Listening to Qin Hai, Lin Qingya felt a moment of confusion. Maybe she misunderstood him?
But this thought was quickly dismissed. Regardless of whether she misunderstood Qin Hai, she wouldn't allow such a situation to continue.
"I don't care if it's a misunderstanding or not. How much money do you want to leave?" Lin Qingya stared coldly at Qin Hai, hoping he would leave her sight as soon as possible.
"Money? I have money. Once we get married, your money will be mine, right?" Qin Hai grinned, seemingly carefree.
Lin Qingya was speechless, gaining a deeper understanding of this shameless person. It seemed his honest appearance in the past days was just an act, aiming to gain both her trust and wealth.
Taking a deep breath, she took out her phone and dialed Lin Zhiyuan's number in front of Qin Hai. "Dad, where are you?"
"Hehe, your mom and I went abroad, preparing for a global tour. By the way, how are you and Xiaohai getting along? I've checked on Xiaohai; even though he lost his parents at a young age, he has a good character. Decent, honest, and hardworking. Treat him well, don't bully him, okay?" Lin Zhiyuan's voice, initially light-hearted, turned serious.
Decent and honest? Bully him?
Looking at Qin Hai smiling recklessly, Lin Qingya was almost breathless with anger.
"Dad, you should quickly get him out of here. I don't want to get married, especially not to someone like him."
Unexpectedly, as soon as Lin Qingya finished speaking, Lin Zhiyuan's voice became low and serious.
"Qingya, Dad knows that this makes you uncomfortable, but do you know that if it weren't for Xiaohai's father saving my life back then, Dad would have been gone long ago, and there wouldn't be you or the current Yafang Group. We can't forget our roots. Of course, I also understand that matters of the heart can't be forced, so Dad doesn't require you to marry right away. If, after your mom and I return, you still don't want it, we'll find another way to compensate Xiaohai."
With Lin Zhiyuan's words at this point, Lin Qingya had no other options.
After hanging up the phone, she looked at Qin Hai, who was still laughing heartlessly. Her pearly white teeth almost bit through her rosy lips.
"You can stay, but we need to set some ground rules!" Lin Qingya reluctantly accepted her father's arrangement.
Qin Hai nodded with a smile, "No problem with three rules, or even thirty."
Lin Qingya coldly said, "First, you're not allowed upstairs. You can only stay on the first floor."
Qin Hai blinked, "Isn't that bad? Uncle Lin said I should protect you. What if a bad person goes upstairs to bully you?"
Smack! Lin Qingya slapped the sofa, shouting impatiently, "As long as you don't go upstairs, there won't be any bad people upstairs, and no one will bully me!"
"Alright, what about the second rule?" Qin Hai said nonchalantly.
"The house must be kept clean and tidy. No strangers, especially women, are allowed to come home!" Lin Qingya stated firmly.
"Sure, no problem. I have a wife now, won't be looking for other women," Qin Hai grinned, his eyes wandering inappropriately over Lin Qingya's body.
Lin Qingya was infuriated, continuing with the third rule, "You're not allowed to have any ideas about me! I warn you, if you dare to act improperly, I will make you regret it!"
After a moment, Qin Hai blinked, "Is that all?"
"That's all!" Lin Qingya turned her head away, feeling exasperated.
"Um, can I also make a small request?" Qin Hai asked.
Lin Qingya turned to look at Qin Hai, feeling surprised that this shameless person dared to make requests.
"Say it!" She wanted to hear what this shameless person would say.
"Cough cough!" Qin Hai cleared his throat, then said seriously, "They say dry firewood meets a fierce flame, easily igniting. Since we're living together as a man and a woman, it's easy for sparks to fly. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, I hope you won't wear too revealing or strange clothes in the future, especially on the first floor. In case something happens, it's fine for me, but you should be mentally prepared in advance."
"What did you say?" Lin Qingya suddenly stood up, her almond-shaped eyes wide open, staring angrily at Qin Hai. "Be clear about what you mean by sparks flying! Also, when did I ever dress provocatively? Do you even know what you look like? Am I supposed to deliberately seduce you?"
Too shameless
, simply too shameless!
Lin Qingya was so angry that her teeth were grinding. From childhood to adulthood, she had never seen such a shameless person, nor had she heard such shameless words. She now regretted not beating this scoundrel to death with a stick earlier.
Who was she? She was Lin Qingya, who could read at three and write essays at five. After graduating from Harvard Business School, she turned the tide and led the Yafang Group out of its predicament.
In the eyes of countless people, she was the goddess of heaven, an untouchable ice and snow goddess. She had countless suitors, and if she wished, numerous young and handsome men would kneel before her, ready to kiss her fingertips.
Yet, this shameless fellow, with only a middle school education and recently working as a bricklayer, dared to say she deliberately wore revealing clothes to seduce him!
What a big joke! Would she ever try to seduce such a shameless person?
However, at this moment, Qin Hai suddenly pointed at the right side of Lin Qingya's chest and said, "Look, like this."
Lin Qingya lowered her head to see, suddenly stunned. The strap of her camisole dress had somehow come undone, and the dress had slipped down a lot, revealing a large expanse of fair skin. At first glance, it indeed seemed like she had intentionally undone it to seduce Qin Hai.
Lin Qingya screamed, quickly covering her chest, and looking up again, Qin Hai's eyes were half-closed, his hands clasped together, muttering, "Forgive me, forgive me! Don't look when it's inappropriate. Don't look when it's inappropriate! White steamed buns, I like to eat white steamed buns, big and fragrant steamed buns!"
After saying that, this scoundrel even smacked his lips a couple of times.
"You scoundrel!" Lin Qingya's face blushed instantly with embarrassment. Covering her chest, she rushed upstairs in embarrassment.
