章 4: Chapter 4 Brother is a Decent Man_1

Living room on the first floor.

Qin Hai feigned rubbing his waist, grimacing in pain as he rubbed.

"Wife, you hit too hard. My back is nearly numb from your twisting!"

"Don't call me wife!" Lin Qingya's face was full of rage, her gaze coldly fixed on Qin Hai. This bastard had not only barged into the bathroom attempting to take advantage of her, but also played dead to deceive her after failing. It was utterly shameless, especially considering how much her father trusted him, allowing him to move into this villa and even arranging for her to marry him.

"Hehe, even though we're not married yet, isn't it just a matter of time? Besides, doesn't this make us seem closer?" Qin Hai said with a smile. Catching sight of Lin Qingya's stern expression, his smile froze, and he quickly corrected himself, "Alright then, since you don't like it, I won't call you wife anymore. From now on, I'll just call you Qingya."

"Don't call me by my name either!" Lin Qingya huffed coldly. "To think my father trusts you so much, only to find out you are this kind of person! Other than molestation and feigning death, what can you do?"

Qin Hai replied with a sense of grievance, "Qing... Qingya, you're really wronging me. I had just gotten home when you were showering, and I hurried in to use the toilet, without any idea you were there. Besides, don't you have a bathroom in your room? Why did you go to the downstairs shower room to bathe?"

"I—" Lin Qingya was at a loss for words, and her momentum weakened slightly. She insisted stubbornly, "What's wrong with my room's bathroom being broken?"

"There, you see? You didn't tell me you'd be using the shower downstairs, so we can only consider this incident an accident," Qin Hai stated, spreading his hands innocently.

Lin Qingya felt an uncontrollable anger rising as she interrogated him further, "Couldn't you hear someone was inside? I think you did it on purpose. Don't forget, after you came in, you tried to get physical with me. If I didn't have a stick, you might have already... already taken advantage of me!"

"You're really wronging me. I had only just entered when I saw you fall, and I just wanted to help you get up. Who knew you would hit me with a stick."

Lin Qingya made Qin Hai seem even more aggrieved with her words. He touched the top of his head, looking dejected as he said, "I must have hit a streak of bad luck today. I went to relieve myself and got mistaken for a pervert, tried to help but was treated like an ingrate, almost got beaten to death, and you say I played dead. As if I love playing dead that much!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Qingya paused, considering the situation more carefully. Could it be that she had indeed misunderstood him?

But she quickly cast aside the notion. Whether she had misunderstood Qin Hai or not, she wouldn't allow such a situation to continue.

"I don't want to know whether it's a misunderstanding or not right now. Tell me, how much money will it take for you to leave?" Lin Qingya said, coldly staring at Qin Hai. She only wanted the man in front of her to leave her sight as soon as possible.

"Money? I have money. Once we're married, won't your money become my money?" Qin Hai said with a smile.

Lin Qingya was speechless, gaining a deeper understanding of the shamelessness of the man before her. It seemed his modest and amiable behavior of the previous days was all an act, aiming to gain both her affection 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 are abroad for a trip around the world. By the way, how are you and Xiao Hai getting along? I've looked into Xiao Hai, and even though he lost his parents at a young age, his character is very good. Honest, earnest, and hardworking. You should get along well with him and don't mistreat him, alright?"

Honest, earnest? Mistreating him?

Looking at Qin Hai across from her, who was smiling broadly, Lin Qingya was so angry she almost passed out.

"Dad, please just send him away. I don't want to get married, especially not to someone like him."

To Lin Qingya's surprise, Lin Zhiyuan's voice took on a stern and serious note as soon as she finished speaking.

"Qingya, Dad knows this is hard on you, but do you have any idea? If it weren't for Xiao Hai's father saving my life back then, I would have been long gone, and there would be no you and no Yafang Group. We can't forget our roots. Of course, I know that we can't force feelings, so I haven't demanded that you two marry right now. If, after your mom and I return from our trip, you still don't want to, we'll drop the matter, and I'll find another way to compensate Xiao Hai."

With her father's words to that effect, what could Lin Qingya do?

After hanging up the phone, she looked across at Qin Hai, who was grinning ear to ear, and nearly bit through her pale lips with her pearly teeth.

"You can stay, but we need to establish some ground rules!" After careful consideration, Lin Qingya helplessly accepted her father's arrangement.

Qin Hai nodded with a smile, "Not just three, I can handle thirty rules."

Lin Qingya snorted, "First, you're not allowed upstairs. From now on, you can only stay on the first floor."

Qin Hai blinked, "That's not good. Uncle Lin said I have to protect you. What if some bad guy goes up to the second floor and bullies you?"

Slap! Lin Qingya, driven to anger, slapped the sofa and shouted somewhat irately, "As long as you stay off the second floor, there won't be any bad guys up there, nor will anyone be there to bully me!"

"Alright then, what's the second rule?" Qin Hai asked nonchalantly.

"The house must remain clean and tidy, no strangers, especially women, are allowed back home!"

"Mm, that's no problem. I now have a wife, so I won't be looking for other women," Qin Hai said with a grin, his gaze lingering inappropriately on Lin Qingya.

Lin Qingya was so angry she almost had a stroke. Biting her teeth, she continued, "Third, don't you dare get any ideas about me! I'm warning you, if you step out of line with me, I'll make you regret it!"

After a moment, Qin Hai blinked and asked, "Is that all?"

"That's all!" Lin Qingya turned her head away, fuming.

"Well, can I make a small request too?" Qin Hai inquired.

Lin Qingya turned back to look at Qin Hai, utterly astonished. She hadn't expected this utterly shameless guy to actually dare to make demands from her.

"Speak!" She was curious to hear what kind of enlightenment could possibly come out of this dog's mouth.

"Ahem!" Qin Hai cleared his throat and then with a straight face, not looking away, he spoke, "As the saying goes, 'dry wood meets fierce fire, and it ignites at once.' Since we are a man and a woman living together, it is quite easy to have an accidental discharge. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, I hope you don't wear too revealing or strange clothes in the future, especially on the first floor. Otherwise, if something happens, I don't mind, but you should be mentally prepared in advance."

"What did you say?" Lin Qingya suddenly stood up, her almond eyes wide with rage as she glared at Qin Hai. "Make yourself clear. What do you mean by 'accidental discharge'? Also, when have I ever dressed provocatively? Don't even look at yourself; do you really think I would intentionally seduce you?"

Too shameless, utterly shameless!

Lin Qingya was so angry she was gnashing her teeth. Never in her life had she encountered someone so shameless, nor had she ever heard such shameless words. She truly regretted not having beaten this jerk to death just a moment ago.

Who was she? She was Lin Qingya, who could read at three, write essays at five, and after graduating from Harvard Business School, took the helm and led Yafang Group out of difficulty.

In countless people's eyes, she was a gifted woman, an untouchable Ice and Snow Goddess. Her suitors were too numerous to count, and with a word, a myriad of handsome young men would be willing to kneel before her and kiss her fingertips.

Yet this shameless jerk, who only had a junior high school education and had been moving bricks on a construction site just a while ago, actually dared to say she was intentionally dressing provocatively to seduce him!

What a huge joke! Would she seduce a shameless liar like him?

But just then, Qin Hai suddenly pointed at Lin Qingya's right chest and said, "Look, like this, for example."

Lin Qingya looked down and was momentarily stunned. The strap of her slip dress on the right side had come undone at some point, slipping down considerably, revealing a large swath of snow-white skin. At first glance, it indeed looked like she had intentionally undone it to seduce Qin Hai.

Lin Qingya screamed and hurriedly covered her chest. Looking up again, she saw Qin Hai with his eyes cast down, hands clasped together, murmuring, "My fault, my fault! Look not upon what is improper, gaze not upon what is improper!"

"Jerk!" Lin Qingya's face instantly flushed with embarrassment, and covering her chest, she dashed upstairs.
