Ye Qian was equally surprised to see Qin Yue so fierce and cool when she was angry. Actually, Ye Qian didn't intend to resist arrest violently. Firstly, it was Yang Wei who was overly arrogant. Secondly, Ye Qian couldn't figure out if the hidden assassin's target was him or Qin Yue. If it was Qin Yue, then once he left, she would be in danger. Although his relationship with Qin Yue wasn't close enough to risk his life for her, since they were on a date, it would be shameful if something happened to her.
Wang Yu glanced at Qin Yue, feeling a surge of jealousy. Why could Ye Qian have dinner with her and always be at odds with her (Wang Yu)? Her nose felt a bit sour with sadness.
Yang Wei's expression turned strange. Seeing Qin Yue, he shuddered, a cold chill rising from his heart. In SH City, not many didn't know this lady, especially those like Yang Wei, who mingled in both the underworld and legal circles. He hastily retracted his gun, stammering, "Miss Qin... You... you're here too."
"Hmph!" Qin Yue didn't even look at him, snorting coldly, "Weren't you going to shoot? Do it!"
Yang Wei felt utterly humiliated. With this lady present, how could he dare to shoot? Laughing awkwardly, he said, "Miss Qin, I was just joking with Mr. Ye."
"Joking? With a gun?" Qin Yue scolded.
Yang Wei dared not talk back. Being scolded by this lady was something he had to accept. His only wish now was to leave quickly, hoping not to anger her more, as he might end up in the Huangpu River if he did.
Wang Yu, though part of the high society, wasn't unfamiliar with Qin Yue. She didn't understand how Ye Qian got involved with her, but felt that she should be the one by Ye Qian's side. Initially, she should have been happy Qin Yue spoke for Ye Qian, as it would help his case. But Qin Yue's domineering attitude, as if Ye Qian belonged to her, made Wang Yu uncomfortable. "Miss Qin, you're defending Ye Qian so much. Are you his accomplice?" Wang Yu asked sternly.
Qin Yue was taken aback by Wang Yu's words, then burst into laughter, "Do you think if I wanted someone dead, I'd do it myself?"
"You don't have to do it, but you could be the mastermind," Wang Yu retorted.
"You little girl, are you looking for trouble?" Qin Yue glared at Wang Yu coldly.
Wang Yu's blatant confrontation with Qin Yue scared the accompanying officers. Offending this lady could cost them their jobs, or even their lives. But they also knew Wang Yu's temper, inherited from her father, stubborn and unyielding. Unable to offend either side, they retreated, avoiding the fallout.
Ye Qian was bewildered by the clash between the two women. From his first meeting with Wang Yu, he didn't dislike her. While her being a beauty played a part, he mostly respected her as a genuine cop, dedicated to justice, a rarity. Qin Yue, on the other hand, despite her cold exterior, had a wild and kind heart, fiercely protective of her own.
"I'm not a little girl!" Wang Yu said, puffing out her chest to prove she wasn't young, and glanced disdainfully at Qin Yue's chest, shaking her head slightly.
The implication was clear, and Qin Yue understood. Her small chest had always been a sore spot. Despite her perfect looks and figure, her chest was a source of insecurity. Many enhancement products yielded no results. Seeing other girls in low-cut tops made her envious. Wang Yu mocking her chest now made Qin Yue feel both wronged and angry.
"Big chest, no brain!" Qin Yue retorted, "Don't flaunt it here. I doubt it's even real."
"You're just jealous. I pity you, flat as a board," Wang Yu shot back.
Everyone was stunned, not understanding why a debate about chest size had started instead of an arrest. Ye Qian wasn't worried, grabbing a chair to watch the argument unfold. Beautiful women arguing could be quite a spectacle, a rare opportunity he didn't want to miss.
Qin Yue, more cunning than the straightforward Wang Yu, saw through her provocation. The cause of their argument was likely Ye Qian. For women, chest size mattered as much as manhood size did for men. Competitive by nature, Qin Yue wouldn't back down. She wrapped her arm around Ye Qian, pressing close and said, "So what if I'm small? Ye Qian likes it this way."
Ye Qian, surprised by Qin Yue's words, didn't understand why she brought him into this. But he wouldn't pass up the opportunity. Though Qin Yue's chest was small, its firmness against his arm was enticing. He smiled, pulling Qin Yue closer, "Don't worry, Yueyue. I'll take care of you and it'll grow."
Qin Yue, using this to annoy Wang Yu, found herself blushing slightly. Wang Yu, infuriated, could only glare at them.
