The tranquil and comfortable teahouse basked in the warm sunshine, yet the ambiance was anything but peaceful. Lin Hai dryly looked at the three beautiful women sitting opposite him, feeling overwhelmingly sleepy.

On the way back just now, Lin Hai deeply experienced what it meant to be "The domineering Mayor fell in love with me," as he was dragged to the private teahouse by Tao Xia.

Liu Qianhui and Queen Qi also hurried over.

Who is Queen Qi? A criminal investigation expert with keen observation skills. She has already sensed that there might be an unspeakable relationship between the deceased Beast Lin and Mayor Beauty Tao. From the moment she entered, her scrutinizing gaze never left Lin Hai, and she never showed him a friendly expression.

Although Liu Qianhui lacks crime-solving skills, women possess this very annoying thing called the Sixth Sense. It's as if fate has told her that the two graceful and gorgeous women beside her are her destined rivals.

On the other hand, Tao Xia—maintaining the image of a dignified and respectable lady—placed tea before the three with a show of virtuous charm. She said, "Please enjoy, ladies. I appreciate your help with my Lin Hai today."

As soon as she said this, Queen Qi and Liu Qianhui stared daggers at Lin Hai.

Lin Hai lowered his head, frantically slurping his tea, pretending to be oblivious while a cold sweat started to bead on his forehead.

The coincidence of these three women being together at the same time was too uncanny.

Another important thing is, any one of these three women is a ferocious and powerful lady, each with her unique methods.

Queen Qi's high kick could bring a middle-aged strong man to his knees in an instant.

Up till now, Liu Qianhui's trousers still concealed a petite and exquisite six-shot hand-held weapon.

As for Tao Xia, she holds a high position and has the backing of Old Mr. Tao.

Offending all three of these women would guarantee a grisly demise.

Lin Hai felt as if he could almost smell a scent called jealousy permeating the air.

"No woman can earn a man's respect based solely on beauty, no woman can win a man's admiration by simply going barefaced, and no man is willing to look past your slovenly exterior to discover your inner beauty. A smart woman always knows how to perfect both inside and outside. So, women, you have to be exquisite."

After saying that, Tao Xia glanced at Liu Qianhui's red-dyed hair and slightly shook her head.

Miss Liu was instantly enraged, interpreting the words as a roundabout way of calling her slovenly!

Before she could burst out in anger, Tao Xia's gaze moved to Queen Qi. After a careful look, she took a sip of her tea and said as if talking to herself, "You've got the looks and you're not sloppy, but it's a pity your heart still needs maturing."

Queen Qi clenched her tiny fists until they creaked, fuming with anger.

Sh*t, this seems like a prelude to a battle.

Lin Hai looked at Tao Xia speechlessly; Mayor, what are you trying to stir up? Isn't it better to jointly build a harmonious society rather than provoke disputes?

"What do you mean?" The hot-tempered Miss Liu couldn't help it any longer and aggressively questioned Tao Xia.

"I'm talking about the way of tea and cultivating the inner self. You're still young, you'll need to slowly come to understand," Tao Xia said with a radiant smile.

Clearly, she was indicating that Liu Qianhui was too young, implying immaturity which equated to childishness...

"Mayor Tao, since when has Lin Hai been your man?" Queen Qi could not hold back either and directly asked.

"Damn!" The tea is so bitter, he could already foresee the storm that was about to ensue.

"Lin Hai has always been my man. It's just that some vixens are willing to play the mistress."

Mayor Tao's remark almost choked Queen Qi to death.

"Hmph, Mayor Tao, you serve the people as a public servant, yet you're willing to be someone's mistress. How shameless." Liu Qianhui was ready to go for the jugular, that scoundrel's power was so formidable, she couldn't let this female mayor snatch him away. She still needed him to protect the Mad Blade Group, and besides, Lin Hai's capabilities were strong, not only in power but also in that particular area, which left her intoxicated.

Tao Xia didn't show any signs of anger but instead responded with a smile to Liu Qianhui: "Of course, I am a public servant for the people."

Following that, she jabbed back: "Lin Hai is also part of the people."

"Ms. Tao, shame on you." Queen Qi trembled with rage and glared daggers at Lin Hai.

Feeling guilty, someone hurriedly tried to bury his head into his pants, not daring to face Queen Qi.

This move only solidified what Tao Xia had just said, nearly making Queen Qi's lungs explode with fury.

Liu Qianhui was agape. Could such words really come from the dignified Lady Mayor?

However, a worldly society heiress like her would never bow down in defeat. With an innate fierce competitive spirit, she puckered her lips and retorted weakly: "So what."

"Sh*t!" Thousands of river crabs seemed to rampage through Lin Hai's heart.

Tao Xia glanced unexpectedly at Liu Qianhui, then at Lin Hai, and with a glint of anger in her eyes and a surge of jealousy in her heart, she thought: "That damned People Lin, daring to flirt around. Hmph, in the future, I'll make sure he's willing but unable."

Liu Qianhui appeared as if she had won the battle and proudly held her head high.

Tao Xia's gaze flickered; the current situation was not in her favor.

Suddenly, her attention turned to the embarrassed and annoyed Qi Weiwei, and a wicked laugh began to bubble up within her,

Seeing the pure demeanor of Queen Qi, one could tell from her expression that she was an inexperienced girl.

Adhering to the principle of taking out the weakest competitor first, Tao Xia drew out her voice and asked: "Officer Qi, what about you? On what basis are you competing?"

From the current situation, it was clear that Queen Qi was indeed not as formidable as the other two women. She seems to have only held hands with Lin Hai once, such a record was ridiculously childish and not worth boasting about.

Liu Qianhui, who also noticed Qi Weiwei's hesitation, had the same thought as Tao Xia and took the opportunity to twist the knife: "Officer Qi, you??"

"..." Queen Qi was about to grind her teeth to pieces, her delicate face blushing profusely, making even Lin Hai feel heartache.

"Tsk tsk, nothing has happened between you two. What gives you the right to sit here and compete?" Liu Qianhui hummed.

Queen Qi wanted to storm off, but her pride wouldn't allow it. She had now realized that she would occasionally dream of that dead Beast Lin, his image filling every crevice of her heart.

All of a sudden, a light bulb went off for Queen Qi; she thought of something that immensely bolstered her morale—she had a card to play!

Taking a deep breath and under the watchful eyes of Liu Qianhui and Tao Xia, she replied firmly: "Lin Hai is mine!"

Queen Qi didn't display any signs of lying, and in a flash, Liu Qianhui and Tao Xia's gaze landed fixedly on Lin Hai.

In that moment, Lin Hai felt like his entire being was in trouble—those two beauties' stares were murderously intense!
