"Don't think that just because you wave a pair of big breasts in front of me, I'll give in. I'd rather go home and watch porn!" Lin Yi pursed his lips. "First, it was you who pressed on my wound. If you hadn't, would I have cried out? Don't cry wolf! Second, use your brain. Just because you're a girl, does that mean you can't be seen by others? The law is equal for everyone. Just because you're a girl, does that mean you're not equal? If you can't be seen, how can I be seen?"

Song Lingshan was taken aback, not expecting Lin Yi to have so many arguments! She wanted to say that girls and boys are different, but Lin Yi's words about "equality" immediately shut her up!

After all, she was a legal professional. If she said there was no equality, wouldn't she be shooting herself in the foot?

Song Lingshan was so angry that she pointed at Lin Yi with her finger for a long time, but eventually let her hand fall in frustration. What was wrong with her today! Song Lingshan took a deep breath. Was this still the usual calm and composed self?

The usual Song Lingshan was always calm and almost never got angry over anything, but today, she had repeatedly lost her composure in front of Lin Yi! It was all Lin Yi's fault for being so despicable, always exposing her weaknesses, which made her so angry.

Thinking about this, Song Lingshan's mind became clearer. Indeed, Lin Yi was right. If she hadn't touched his wound, he wouldn't have cried out. If he hadn't cried out, she wouldn't have touched his wound, and there would be no misunderstanding.

Everything that happened today was due to her own actions, and it couldn't be blamed on Lin Yi. Although she was very upset, Song Lingshan still lowered her proud head. "I lost my composure. Can we take the statement now?"

"Sure." Lin Yi was surprised by how quickly Song Lingshan changed, finding it quite remarkable.

"Your name?" Song Lingshan resumed her usual cold demeanor, as if the angry girl from before wasn't her.

"Lin Yi." Lin Yi cooperated, not wanting to make things difficult for Song Lingshan. The words he had just said were to get back at her for hurting his wound. In fact, a girl suffering such a misunderstanding would be far more aggrieved than a boy. Just like how Chen Yushu had already misunderstood him this morning, but it hadn't affected his normal life at all, and Chen Yushu hadn't looked down on him much.

"Age?" Song Lingshan continued.

"Eighteen, just turned adult." Lin Yi smiled.

Song Lingshan's face immediately turned red. She felt that Lin Yi's words and smile had some hidden meaning, as if he was saying that since he was an adult, she wasn't really teasing a minor... No, it was driving her crazy! Song Lingshan felt her head was about to explode! This way, she couldn't focus on her work.

It seemed her mindset still needed adjustment. After Brother Yang Huaijun returned, Song Lingshan planned to ask him for advice. She had never seen Yang Huaijun show any emotion, always calm and composed, which she admired greatly.

"Tell me about the situation at the bank at the time!" Song Lingshan sighed and said to Lin Yi.

After taking Lin Yi's statement, Song Lingshan quickly left the hospital amidst the flickering, suspicious, and disdainful gazes of Uncle Fu, Chu Mengyao, and Chen Yushu. Song Lingshan felt her face was like a big fireball, hot and red.

"Mr. Lin, are you okay?" Uncle Fu was slightly surprised to see Lin Yi able to get up. Wouldn't a gunshot wound require a few days of rest?

"I'm fine." Lin Yi shook his head.

"Amazing! Twice a day!" Chen Yushu passed by Lin Yi, grinning and whispering.

"Huh?" Lin Yi was taken aback, then realized what Chen Yushu meant, feeling somewhat amused and exasperated. Twice a day, but both times were misunderstandings!

Chu Mengyao didn't say anything, just gave Lin Yi a cold look and pulled Chen Yushu out of the ward.

"Chu Mengyao is just like that, Mr. Lin, don't take it personally!" After Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu left, Uncle Fu patted Lin Yi's shoulder and said, "Thanks to you today! When Mr. Chu returns, I'll definitely recommend you for a reward!"

"No need." Lin Yi smiled. "Mr. Chu has given me so much money, I should live up to it."

"Hehe!" Uncle Fu laughed happily. "No matter what, thanks to you today."

"Uncle Fu, this matter isn't that simple. According to the bald guy, a man named Cihua instructed them. Their main goal was to kidnap Chu Mengyao, not to rob the bank." Lin Yi said, "Although we don't know what the mastermind wants, I think we should investigate further. The police alone won't be enough."

"Right, I understand. I'll talk to Mr. Chu about this." Uncle Fu nodded, also suspecting a connection. Why was Chu Mengyao kidnapped during Mr. Chu's absence?

Lin Yi didn't say much more, as it was their family matter, and he could only hint at it.

In the hospital parking lot, Lin Yi saw Song Lingshan driving a police car past. He smiled at her, but she glared at him, didn't stop, and instead sped up.

Lin Yi and Uncle Fu got into the car, where Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu were already sitting in the back, talking. However, they fell silent when Uncle Fu and Lin Yi got in, making the atmosphere in the car somewhat tense.

Earlier in the car, Chu Mengyao and Chen Yushu had been discussing Lin Yi. Chu Mengyao was still determined to get rid of him, but Chen Yushu thought it was fine for him to stay, at least they would have breakfast every day.

This made Chu Mengyao furious. How could it be all about eating? They had plenty of chefs at their hotels, why would they need Lin Yi, a half-baked country bumpkin?

So, the two fell silent, and when Lin Yi got in the car, they became even more silent.

Uncle Fu parked the car in front of Chu Mengyao's villa. It seemed Chen Yushu would be staying with Chu Mengyao, so Uncle Fu didn't stop at Chen Yushu's house.

The three got out of the car, and Uncle Fu drove away to prepare meals for the three children, considering Lin Yi a child as well.

"Stop!" Just as Lin Yi was about to step into the villa, Chu Mengyao called him.

"What is it?" Lin Yi turned around. Although he could tease Song Lingshan, he still maintained a certain level of respect for Chu Mengyao. After all, she was his employer, and his duty was to accompany her in her studies and life, bringing her joy. So, Lin Yi always had a good attitude.
