Daddy Always Gets Jealous

”...”

Wen Nuan stared at Qin Shaojin.

”Didn’t catch that?” Qin Shaojin’s beautiful fingers caressed the part of the cigarette butt, his peach blossom eyes narrowing into a slit.

”I heard it,” Wen Nuan said, obviously irritated.

Qin Shaojin stood there, looking towards Wen Nuan’s bed, his gaze landing on what resembled a jumbo Crayon Shin-chan plush on her bed, ”I was about to call the police station...”

Upon hearing Qin Shaojin’s voice, Wen Nuan’s face changed color as she forced a smile and stepped forward, ”Lawyer Qin, could you first cancel the report to the police?”

Qin Shaojin narrowed his eyes, ”Cancel it?”

”Yeah.” Wen Nuan nodded emphatically.

Qin Shaojin’s gaze left the suspected Crayon Shin-chan, looking at Wen Nuan, ”What a joke. My phone has lost quite a few important files, and I’m not yet sure about the extent of the loss. I’ll give you a list once I’ve tallied it up.”

”Might as well sell me off!”

Wen Nuan made a crying face.

Qin Shaojin stepped closer, looked down at Wen Nuan, and gently patted her baby-fat cheeks, ”You’re not even worth that much. Selling you would be a loss.”

Wen Nuan clenched her fists. His repeated insults were intolerable, ”Qin Shaojin!”

”Hmm~”

Qin Shaojin looked at Wen Nuan with a smile in his eyes.

Wen Nuan’s resolve weakened as she looked at him, ”Considering we’re relatives, can’t you just trust me...”

Qin Shaojin glanced around the room again, ”I only trust evidence and what I see.”

Wen Nuan circled around Qin Shaojin, ”Isn’t there a saying that what the eyes see may not always be the truth?”

”There is that saying, but it doesn’t apply here.”

As Qin Shaojin saw the shadow beside him and turned around, Wen Nuan crashed into his arms.

His beautiful fingers unbuttoned and then re-buttoned his suit jacket, recalling Wen Nuan’s flirty comment, he lowered his voice, ”Throwing yourself at me?”

”...!”

Wen Nuan quickly backed away a step. Even if she were throwing herself at someone, it wouldn’t be him!

Qin Shaojin picked up his phone and dialed the police station, ”Officer Yang—”

”Qin old...”

She almost blurted ”Sir,” but quickly changed it to ”Bro!”

Wen Nuan stood there, smiling sweetly, ”It really wasn’t me, look...”

Qin Shaojin licked his lips, ”Idiot!”

”...”

Wen Nuan glared at Qin Shaojin angrily.

Qin Shaojin, ignoring her, sat at the head of Wen Nuan’s bed, scrolling through his phone, looking at attachments that had been downloaded and checking his email once more.

Half an hour later, a knock sounded on the door.

Qin Shaojin left Wen Nuan’s bedroom, giving Zhao Wu, who was standing at the doorway, a glance, ”The door’s open. You need to knock?”

”...”

Zhao Wu glanced at Wen Nuan, feeling embarrassed! To think a well-known lawyer could speak so crudely.

Qin Shaojin caught Zhao Wu’s expression and casually pulled the group leader along, ”You can go back now.”

”...”

Zhao Wu stared at Qin Shaojin, finding something off about the whole scene.

Qin Shaojin folded back into Wen Nuan’s room, but then turned his head back to Zhao Wu, ”Find someone to install a lock.”

”...”

Zhao Wu glanced at the Wen family’s door lock, which had been forced open, a sorry sight. Don’t tell him Qin Shaojin did it? As Qin Shaojin’s assistant, he felt humiliated!

”What are you standing there for?”

Qin Shaojin glanced at Zhao Wu.

Zhao Wu quickly left.

Qin Shaojin looked down at the group leader, stroked its fur, ”Off you go.”

The group leader entered the bedroom, sniffed around everywhere, then suddenly started digging in a pile of clothes.

Wen Nuan saw her panties, which she had stuffed into the bedroom in advance, being dug out. She wanted to stop it, but it was already too late!
