My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early

Yin Qin looked at Ji Baixing in front of him.
There was an obvious expression on Ji Baixingâs face and a frown on his forehead.
Should he be grateful that he knew kung fu and able to stop abruptly, otherwise if his mere presence in front of her was so repulsive to her, wouldnât she want to kill him if he touched her?
He stood motionless at the door.
Ji Baixingâ¢s face was indifferent, and she directly walked past Yin Qin to leave.
âJi Baixing.â Yin Qin suddenly called her.
Ji Baixing seemed to hesitate for a moment before stopping and turning to look at him.
âAm I obstructing you from breathing fresh air?â Yin Qin asked.
Ji Baixingâs brow furrowed.
âDo you need to show such a repulsed expression every time you see me?â Yin Qin said sarcastically, âIf Iâm really an eyesore for you, just let me know, I promise to disappear automatically when Iâm ten meters away from you.â
âYes, you are getting in my way!â Ji Baixing enunciated clearly.
Yin Qin stared at her blankly.
Then he snorted in derision.
He tried to control his emotions so that he appeared calm, âIf we canât be lovers, canât we be friends?â He muttered in front of Ji Baixing.
Damn it, he has no dignity.
Indeed, he was humbled to the dust.
He even fantasized that even if they couldnât be together, there wouldnât be such great hate and grudges!
After all, he was still best friends with Ji Baijian, they were life-long friends. Sooner or later they would have to meet, and they would run into each other sometimes, and a mere greeting would suffice.
âNo.â Ji Baixing responded coldly.
No matter how humble he was, she could remain indifferent.
She said, âWe cannot be lovers nor friends. I hope we maintain a distance of ten meters!â Yin Qinâs throat moved slightly.
Ji Baixing, do you know that right now, I really wish I could strangle you to death.
But I canât bear to!
He turned and headed towards Ji Baijianâs ward.
âI know that you have never kept your word,â Ji Baixinâs voice came from behind, âSo I donât hold any hopes.â
Damn it.
Ji Baixin!
If you regret it in the future, even if you beg me in tears, I wonât give you any attention, absolutely not!
Hiseyes were turning red.
Behind him, he could hear the sound of high heels gradually walking away.
He stood at the door for a long time.
He was definitely not crying, his eyes were just a bit uncomfortable.
And of course, he didnât want Ji Baijian to misunderstand and think that he was crying over a girl.
He was trying his best to suppress and endure his emotions.
He did not realize that a figure had stood in front of him, standing in front of him while he hung his head low. His blurred vision gradually focused, and he saw a pair of white sports shoes standing a stepâs distance from his feet.
He was startled, and his emotions quickly returned to normal in that moment.
Even though his nose was still a little red and his eyes were still a little red, there were no tears in his eyes.
He looked at Luo Xiaolang in front of him.
Luo Xiaolang also looked at Yin Qin.
The two of them stared at each other.
Yin Qin suddenly yelled, âWhat are you looking at, huh?â
Luo Xiaolang pursed her lips.
âAre you captivated by my handsomeness!â Yin Qin was still furious.
Luo Xiaolang didnât respond.
âEven if you like me, itâS useless, Iâm not interested in plain Janes like you,â Yin Qin said harshly.
Saying that, he was about to walk into the ward.
Just then, he heard Luo Xiaolangâs emotionless voice calmly saying, âYou look so ugly when you cry.â
âDammit, whoâs crying!â Yin Qin jumped up.
He was extremely agitated.
âAh!â Yin Qin suddenly clutched his own leg.
Luo Xiaolang kicked Yin Qin and then left the ward, even walking away confidently.
âDammit, Luo Xiaolang, I am a gentleman and I donât fight with women, you think I canât beat you, donât you?â
âYes, you canât beat me.â Luo Xiaolang didnât even turn her head and responded lightly.
She always felt that Yin Qin deserved to be taught a lesson.
Yin Qin watched Luo Xiaolangâs departing figure.
Dammit Gao Dazhuang, I curse you to never have a man want you in this lifetime.
He held onto his leg and walked into the ward.
In the ward, Ji Baijian was gently wiping the drool from Song Zhizhiâs mouth with a napkin.
What the hell.
It was so eye-piercingly sweet.
Ji Baijian had changed completely ever since he got married, no no no, even since he started dating, he became more human!
He walked over, sat on the edge of Ji Baijianâs bed, and grabbed the congee from the bedside table. He started eating while asking, âHowâs your health?â
âNothing much,â Ji Baijian replied.
âThis incident, it doesnât seem simple, does it?â Yin Qin asked casually.
Ji Baijian seemed to go silent for a moment. He turned his head and looked at Song Zhizhi without saying a word.
Yin Qin didnât press further.
After all, he rarely got an answer from Ji Baijian about things he didnât want to discuss.
Yin Qin quickly finished a bowl and prepared to pour another one.
âIf you eat anymore!â Song Zhizhi suddenly called out to Yin Qin.
Yin Qin got a shock, and looked guilty as if he was caught stealing.
âDamn, youâre not asleep!â Yin Qin put down his utensils unhappily. âI was woken up by your noise.â Song Zhizhi tried to sit up.
She was indeed woken up by Yin Qinâs noise.
But she didnât want to get up when she woke up. She felt that Ji Baijiants embrace was warm, and she enjoyed lying in his arms.
She wanted to stay in bed a bit longer.
Who knew that Yin Qin would be so inconsiderate and eat the patientâs food.
âWell, I havenât eaten anything.â Yin Qin said, âI came to check on Baijianâs condition as soon as I woke up, so I totally forgot to eat. Iâm starving now.â
âXiaolang has gone to collect the takeaway,â Ji Baijian said.
He had asked Xiaolang to order some takeout so Song Zhizhi could eat something when she woke up.
âOh.â Yin Qin nodded.
After thinking for a while, he decided that a meal of meat and fish would taste better than this medicinal tasting congee, so he lost interest in Ji Baijianâs food.
Song Zhizhi got up from the bed, cleaned Yin QinâS used dishes and utensils, then served another bowl for Ji Baijian. She sat next to him and said, âIâll feed you.â âIs this necessary?â Yin Qin was speechless.
Can you be a bit restrained in front of other people?
âItâs like this between husband and wife, if you canât accept it, get married and show us.â Song Zhizhi said deliberately.
Whilst speaking, she used a spoon to scoop a spoonful of porridge, lightly blowing air on it to cool it. Once it was at an appropriate temperature, she put it into Ji Baijianâs mouth.
And Ji Baijian was enjoying it.
Dammit.
This is infuriating.
Yin Qin got up from Ji Baijianâs bed.
Ji Baijian was always partial to women.
He angrily sat down on the sofa on the side, watching the couple on the bed, who were demure and intimate.
He turned his head and took out his cellphone, forcing himself not to watch.
But the damn thing was, he couldnât help but want to look again.
He lifted his head.
Dammit.
He was going to develop trachoma.
Feeding him is one thing, but why were they also kissing?
He felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, impatiently got up from the sofa, and said somewhat furious, âIs Luo Xiaolang going to get the food takeout or buy it instead, why has it taken so long for her to return?!â
Having stolen a kiss from Song Zhizhi, Ji Baijian was brimming with pride, somewhat irked by Yin Qinâs sudden interruption.
It was indeed surprising.
Did ordering takeaway food really take this long?
âNever mind, Iâll go check.â Yin Qin grumbled, standing up from the couch. He quickly left, unable to stand the coupleâs displays of affection any longer.
They acted as if they were the only husband and wife in the world.
There was nothing to brag about.
Yin Qin stomped towards the VIP counter, asking, âDid the takeaway food get delivered?â
The nurse, frightened by Yin Qinâs menacing appearance, blurted out, âYes, yes, a very tall girl already picked it upâ¦â
âWhere is she?â
âShe left.â The nurse stared back at him innocently.
She didnât steal the food.
Yin Qin glared at the nurse.
Then, he stomped off back towards the patientâs room.
Entering the room, he found Luo Xiaolang missing, dashed out of the room, and started pacing around. He wasnât worried about Xiaolangâ he was just hungry, very hungry.
He stomped around in the hallway, panting with exhaustion.
Then finally, he saw Luo Xiaolang.
As he watched her standing with the takeout food, staring at the hospital map in the hallway, completely lost, âLuo Xiaolang!â Yin Qin roared.
The hospital, which was usually quiet, echoed with his booming voice.
The woman being yelled at, however, seemed utterly composed. She turned her head, simply looking at Yin Qin.
Yin Qin was dripping with sweat. Stomping over, he asked, âHave you lost your memory? Whatâs wrong with you, staring at that map? Donât you know Iâm starving?â Luo Xiaolang remained unperturbed by Yin Qinâs outburst.
She stood up and took off.
âLuo Xiaolang, where are you going!â Yin Qin asked.
âThe patientâs room.â
âAre you sure youâre heading to the patientâs room?â Yin Qin stood in place, watching her.
Luo Xiaolang paused for a moment.
âAre you lost?â Yin Qin asked, with his hands on his hips.
Luo Xiaolang didnât say a word.
âFor Godâs sake, are you dumb, Luo Xiaolang?â Yin Qin said, exasperated, âItâs such a small hospital. Just take a straight road from Ji Baijianâs room, make one turn to the counter, and you managed to get lost!â
Luo Xiaolang bit her lip.
True, she wasnât familiar with the city streets and thoroughfares. While at Wulin Temple, there werenât so many winding paths; she was used to the wilderness, not these boxy buildings. When she drove Song Zhizhi, sheâd always use GPS.
âThis way!â Yin Qin said, reaching out and grabbing Luo Xiaolangâs wrist.
Luo Xiaolang allowed Yin Qin to lead her, and they finally returned to the patientâs room.
In the room, Song Zhizhi was tenderly feeding Ji Baijian some porridge.
Luo Xiaolang never cared about such displays, so she didnât feel uncomfortable. Only Yin Qin seemed displeased.
He started to dig into the takeout, speaking to Song Zhizhi, âIf youâre not eating, Iâm not saving you any.â
Song Zhizhi was unfazed.
Ji Baijian, however, took the bowl from Song Zhizhiâs hand, âYin Qin means what he says.â
âIs he a pig?â Song Zhizhi couldnât help but laugh.
âNo, he just enjoys taking revenge on humanity.â
Song Zhizhi laughed heartily.
How come it felt like Ji Baijian was bullying Yin Qin mercilessly?
She got off the bed to eat the takeout with Yin Qin.
Luo Xiaolang only ate her portion.
After they finished.
Everyone was feeling better.
Yin Qin leaned comfortably on the sofa, âWho wouldâve thought, one moment weâre being chased, and the next were enjoying ourselves like this.â
Song Zhizhi stared at Yin QinâS countenance.
Was this guy really so carefree and casual?
They didnât even know who was after them, or whether the danger had truly passed, yet he could just completely let go at this moment!
âBy the way,â Yin Qin sat up straight and said to Song Zhizhi, âYou made me hold my head high in my own home.â
âHmm?â Song Zhizhi was puzzled.
âDidnât we manipulate public opinion in M Country to get rescue forces to help us? You asked me to use the power of the Milky Way to spread the word, right? Now, all international channels are vigorously reporting on the inhumane behavior in M Country. I just saw that the official M Country has apologized and promised to increase official rescue forces to help those affected by the explosion, not neglecting a single life. Because our Milky Way was the first to report this news, we were commended by the worldâs most influential news agency, stating that our news was the most valuable and positive of the year, worthy for all the media in the world to learn from.â
Yin Qin was very excited about this.
He was awakened by his fatherâs call and then praised extensively, which momentarily thrilled him so much that he forgot to eat and rushed over to share his joy with them.
Of course, he would never admit these things.
He continued excitedly, âMy father always thought I was talentless and always thought that my damn cousin was better than me! Imagine my annoying cousin wishing for me to be beaten and kicked out by my dad, his face must be pretty grim right now!â Song Zhizhi laughed.
People like Yin Qin can really lift your spirits.
She suddenly thought of something and asked, âHas the father of that little girl been found?â
âYou mean the one from the video?â
âHmm.â
Because they left urgently, they basically dumped everything and didnât handle anything before rushing back to the country.
She didnât know how things were there now.
Itâs not that it has much to do with her, but out of human nature, she hoped that everything would end well.
âHeâs been found.â Yin Qin replied, âThe little girlâS father was seriously injured, but fortunately, he was sent to the hospital and has been resuscitated. The local media also found the little girl. She specially thanked you. The news is out there, do you want to see? I can help you find it.â
âNo need.â
As long as heâS been found, thatâs good.
Yin Qin always feels that other peopleâs focuses and interests are different from his own.
Heâs quite interested in these gossips.
âYin Qin, take this opportunity to work diligently in your familyâs company,â Ji Baijian suddenly spoke up.
Yin Qin was taken aback.
Actually, he hadnât had enough fun yet.
He was already working in the Milky Way, but it was just a nominal position, and he was barely seen at work. He was constantly criticized for it, but he didnât care. After all, he was the heir. Even if his father was pissed off by him, he was still the heir. He didnât want to tie himself up in the company so soon. He was not like Ji Baijian, frighteningly disciplined. He enjoyed the life of doing whatever he wanted.
Moreover, he was a loner. Who would he need to impress by working? He didnât need to support a family or act mature and sophisticated. It was better to just live freely and whimsically.
âLetâs take the work thing slowly.â Yin Qin said dismissively, âAnyway, Iâve observed that Wei Cheng canât snatch the inheritance of the Milky Way. Itâs firmly in my dadâs grasp! That old man seems to dislike me terribly, but heâS shrewdly fair in terms of property distribution. No matter how well he treats Wei Cheng, itâs only because Wei Cheng can help him at the moment. If Wei Cheng has any ideas, my dad would be the first to put him down!â â1 need your help!â demanded Ji Baijian bluntly.
Yin Qin looked at him.
âSo, you need to take over the Milky Way quickly.â
âAre you planning to make your move so soon?â Yin Qin raised an eyebrow.
He felt like Ji Baijian had been observing and waiting all this while, and now suddenly he wanted to start.
Had Ji Baijian discovered something?! âIn any case, just do as I say.â âOh,â Yin Qin nodded, âThen Iâm leaving.â
With that, Yin Qin left.
Song Zhizhi turned her head and continued to look at Ji Baijian.
Ji Baijian looked back at her, their eyes meeting.
âJi Baijian, what are you plotting?â
Ji Baijian didnât answer.
âThe question Yin Qin asked earlierâ¦are you planning to make your move so soon?â Song Zhizhi repeated, âWhat does that mean?â
Ji Baijian remained silent.
âWas the incident in M Country intentional?â Song Zhizhi speculated, managing to stay calm and composed even though Ji Baijian told her nothing. She continued, âThe person who wants to kill you, and the person who wants to wipe out our family, are they the same person?
âEighty percent likely, yes!â replied Ji Baijian.
Song Zhizhi frowned, her heart sank, âIs it because of me that you encountered this incident, because of me that youâre being hunted?â
âNot entirely,â Ji Baijian replied slowly, âBut our enemy is the same!â
Who is it?!
Does Ji Baijian know, who is it?!
