"Brother Lin, how could you steal my stuff?"

"Brother Lin, although I know you like Sister Qi too, I really can't give you this photo."

Cao had a face full of sorrow and determination, as if he would perish together with Lin Hai if Lin Hai tried to snatch the photo again. At this moment, he looked like a pitiful and wronged victim, as if Lin Hai was the unforgivable Great Demon King.

"Cao..." Lin Hai was about to speak, but was interrupted by Queen Qi.

"Lin Hai, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person; I've been wrong about you all along." Queen Qi looked at Lin Hai, who appeared dejected, her beautiful eyes filled with deep disappointment.

Ouyang Xiaoya also heard the commotion and came over, looking puzzled at the scene.

"Sister Qi, actually, don't blame Brother Lin. I know he also deeply likes you, and that's why he took such an excessive action. I understand; really, don't blame Brother Lin." Cao quickly spoke up.

"Sh*t." Lin Hai really wanted to curse Cao Zilong loudly, but Ouyang Xiaoya's intense questioning gaze made him suppress his impulsive emotions and became calm and rational.

Cao Zilong's words made Queen Qi feel even more pity for Cao, while Lin Hai's silence misled others to think he was acting guilty.

"Brother Lin, I'm sorry," Cao said apologetically.

"Stop talking, Cao, let's go," Queen Qi said through clenched teeth. She was very reluctant to accept the reality, but Lin Hai's current behavior led to misunderstandings.

"Lin Hai, what exactly happened?" Ouyang Xiaoya asked, her beautiful eyes slightly furrowed.

Queen Qi stared intently at Lin Hai; the question Ouyang Xiaoya just asked was also what she wanted to know.

She wanted to hear an explanation from Lin Hai, even if it was a lie, just so she could feel a bit better.

In her heart, she still had a place for Lin Hai.

She didn't want to believe that Lin Hai was really this despicable, although in terms of appearance and demeanor, Cao, clean and upright, was leagues apart from Lin Hai. However, strictly speaking, the person who had really knocked on the door to Qi Weiwei's heart was Lin Hai.

A woman's first love always holds a sliver of hope for that man, however faint, holding onto that sliver of hope until the twilight years, frail and lingering on her deathbed, when she might truly let go of that attachment.

So, at this moment, Queen Qi really wanted to hear an explanation from Lin Hai.

In the eyes of the others, unnoticed, Cao's gaze flickered with the gleam of a successful scheme as he could see that Queen Qi still harbored a small hope for Lin Hai.

"Sister Qi, I'm sorry, Brother Lin, actually the words I said to you just now, I really won't gossip to Sister Qi. I know you like Miss Ouyang and Sister Qi, but one really shouldn't be selfish, sorry." Cao stabbed again.

With this, the faces of Ouyang Xiaoya and Queen Qi both turned cold.

"Let's go!" Queen Qi said angrily.

Lin Hai quickly grabbed Queen Qi's hand.

"Weiwei, hear me out," Lin Hai said earnestly.

At this juncture, he had no choice but to explain.

"Let go!" Queen Qi bit her teeth and shouted.

"Weiwei, hear me out once, it's not what you think, please trust me this time," Lin Hai said, looking back and forth at Queen Qi and Ouyang Xiaoya.

"I don't want to hear it, Lin Hai. You were the first man to open my heart, and yet you're so despicable. I can't believe you anymore, goodbye, never see you again!" Queen Qi clenched her teeth, uttering each word deliberately. One could see her body trembling slightly, as if she was struggling to control her emotions; her eyes misty, on the verge of tears, yet forcefully stopping.

"Lin Hai, please let go of my hand," Queen Qi said coldly again.

Lin Hai stubbornly clasped her hand and refused to let go.

"Let go!"

"No!"

"Slap—" A loud slap suddenly resounded.

Lin Hai instantly felt a hot pain on his face, as if the cold and delicate jade hand didn't hit his face, but his heart instead.

Ouyang Xiaoya was stunned.

Lin Hai looked at Qi Weiwei incredulously.

Queen Qi was also stunned.

"Sister Qi, don't do this." Cao hurried to pull Queen Qi away.

The hand that was originally holding Qi Weiwei also involuntarily slid out of Lin Hai's hand bit by bit until the spaces between the fingers were empty, flowing with cold air.

"I..." Queen Qi didn't really mean to slap Lin Hai.

Lin Hai bowed his head, tightly closed his eyes, and sighed deeply.

When he lifted his head, his eyes opened, he took a deep breath, his lips curled into a smile, and he looked at Queen Qi unabashedly, speaking softly, "Sorry, Officer Qi."

"You..." Queen Qi bit her red lips hard, hearing Lin Hai speak to her in such a calm yet utterly foreign tone for the first time.

"Officer Qi, I hope I've been cleared of the suspicion of being the lingerie thief?"

"Although you are very beautiful and charming."

"But I am engaged, my fiancée is named Ouyang Xiaoya, and I think, we might have really misunderstood each other."

After saying this, Lin Hai raised his hand, making a waving goodbye gesture.

"Officer Qi, goodbye, I hope you won't disturb my personal life any longer, now I am a law-abiding citizen, and also, I've decided to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau later to get a marriage certificate with my fiancée."

"Alright, wish me well, you are a good police officer."

With this speech, Queen Qi could no longer control her tears and began to sob.

"Brother Lin, you…" Cao was still hypocritically trying to act poorly.

"Cao, I suggest you better not talk, otherwise I won't be able to contain myself from killing you immediately." Lin Hai glared at Cao, his eyes cold and merciless like a venomous snake fixated on its prey, sending chills down Cao's spine, causing him to choke on words in his own throat.

"Let's go!" Queen Qi gritted her teeth, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, her smoky makeup slowly running, making her face resemble a teary "panda," but there was nothing cute about it, only pitiful and heart-wrenching.

Cao helped Qi Weiwei out of the villa.

Lin Hai watched her retreating figure with complex eyes, seeing her off, this farewell, might be forever.

Finally, his gaze rested on Cao Zilong, his fingers twitched slightly, and the Tracking Device silently flew into Cao Zilong's sleeve.

"Lin Hai…" Ouyang Xiaoya hesitated for a long time before finally speaking, her tone complex.

"CEO, I love you, let's get married!" After saying this, Lin Hai didn't wait for Ouyang Xiaoya to react, he quickly pulled her into his arms and kissed her soft tempting red lips, his tongue entering, mingling their kiss together.
