"Joking, joking..."
Qin Ruobing quickly covered her mouth while laughing softly.
Though honestly.
Based on the way her eyes briefly drifted downward again.
She absolutely was not joking.
Ling Shuangxue looked ready to die from embarrassment.
"Uh!"
Without hesitation, she immediately started pushing Qin Ruobing toward the door.
"Jeez, just leave already!"
Qin Ruobing finally allowed herself to be pushed outside while smiling lightly.
"Alright, alright. You two lovebirds have fun."
The hotel room door shut behind her shortly afterward.
And for the first time in years.
Qin Ruobing genuinely felt lighter.
Safer.
Like the suffocating pressure hanging over her life had finally loosened slightly.
As she walked down the hallway alone, her thoughts slowly drifted.
’First thing I’ll do... Is file for divorce.’
An image suddenly appeared inside her mind.
Shen Tian’s naked body.
Qin Ruobing’s face instantly became red.
Her footsteps even faltered slightly.
’I was lied to my entire life... Those things can actually get that big...?’
Then another dangerous thought appeared.
’What would it even taste li—’
Qin Ruobing immediately coughed loudly.
"...Absolutely not."
She hurriedly shook those thoughts away while walking faster down the hallway.
Back inside the hotel room.
Ling Shuangxue buried her face into her hands.
"I’m never recovering from this embarrassment..."
Shen Tian simply laughed while wrapping an arm around her waist.
"Well... At least your mom seems happier now."
Ling Shuangxue sighed helplessly.
"...That’s true."
Eventually.
The two entered the shower together afterward.
Unfortunately.
What should’ve been a simple shower became significantly less efficient than expected.
Mostly because neither could really keep their hands to themselves.
So by the time they finally finished.
Nearly an entire hour had passed.
And the water itself had already started turning cold.
The two finally got dressed properly before leaving the hotel together.
Outside.
The staff all respectfully bowed the moment Shen Tian appeared.
Ling Shuangxue quietly held onto his arm while trying not to think about her mother’s earlier comments.
Eventually, the two entered Shen Tian’s car.
Ling Shuangxue buckled her seatbelt before speaking:
"Let’s go shopping before tonight’s banquet. I want a new dress."
She wanted to stand beside Shen Tian, looking her absolute best.
Shen Tian simply shrugged casually while starting the engine.
"Sure."
He was fine with it.
Even he needed a small break from constantly tormenting Ye Chen.
At least temporarily.
Back at the police station.
"You’re free to go."
One of the officers lazily opened the holding cell door while looking completely exhausted.
The moment those words entered Ye Chen’s ears.
His eyes instantly widened.
"...Freedom? FREEDOM!"
Ye Chen rushed out dramatically before falling to his knees in the middle of the hallway.
Tears literally streamed down his face.
"THANK THE HEAVENS!"
Nearby officers all stared silently.
The prisoners still inside the cell looked at each other awkwardly.
"...Wasn’t he only here for a couple hours?"
One man scratched his head.
Another prisoner sighed deeply.
"I’m telling you, man... That guy’s mentally special."
Even the police officer escorting Ye Chen rolled his eyes tiredly.
"Come on already. You’ve got someone waiting for you."
Hearing that.
Ye Chen immediately got excited again.
"Waiting for me?"
He quickly stood up while fixing his hair proudly.
"...Is it Ling Shuangxue?"
Then his expression became increasingly smug.
"Oh! Or maybe another super hot beauty? I can’t wait!"
He happily muttered nonsense to himself while walking ahead confidently.
The moment he exited the station lobby.
His smile instantly froze.
Because waiting there...
Was not a beautiful woman.
But instead...
A middle-aged man.
Ye Chen’s face visibly twitched for a second.
He quickly recovered his expression.
Ling Han immediately stood up from the waiting chair before opening his arms dramatically.
"Ye Chen, my boy!"
He walked over enthusiastically.
"I couldn’t wait any longer, so I used every connection possible to get you released!"
Then his face darkened slightly.
"Though unfortunately... I now owe the Shen Family several major contracts."
"That Shen patriarch is truly annoying."
Ling Han gritted his teeth bitterly.
He quickly regained composure before warmly hugging Ye Chen.
Ye Chen awkwardly returned the hug.
"...Thank you for getting me out."
Ling Han immediately shook his head seriously.
"You are the savior of our family. Of course I had to help you."
Then his expression suddenly turned furious again.
"As for those useless women in my family— They didn’t help at all! I’ll make sure to teach them a proper lesson later!"
Ye Chen’s expression shifted slightly.
Because internally...
He still considered Ling Shuangxue his future woman.
So hearing another man casually talk about "disciplining" her felt strange.
After remembering Shen Tian—
Ye Chen’s hatred immediately returned stronger than before.
His fists slowly clenched.
’Shen Tian.’
Just thinking about that name made his blood boil.
Ling Han suddenly placed a hand on Ye Chen’s shoulder seriously.
"Don’t worry. The Shen family won’t stay arrogant forever. Our Ling Family will remember this humiliation."
Ye Chen slowly nodded.
Ling Han’s phone began ringing loudly.
Seeing this, he finally released his hand from Ye Chen.
Which Ye Chen was secretly very grateful for.
The moment Ling Han turned away.
Ye Chen immediately brushed off his own clothes with a disgusted expression.
He hated being touched by other men.
Ling Han pulled out his phone before answering irritably as he put it on speaker.
"...What do you want, woman?"
His mood was already terrible after everything involving the Shen family.
Because officers were nearby.
He restrained his temper slightly.
Qin Ruobing spoke from the other side
"We’re getting a divorce."
Ling Han instantly froze.
"You micro-dick bastard. Bye bye."
Click.
The call ended.
Silence.
Complete silence.
Even nearby police officers slowly looked away awkwardly.
Ling Han himself stood there completely frozen while holding the disconnected phone.
Several seconds passed.
