Qi Huan looked up at Han Lin, chuckled, and didn't respond.
Han Lin noticed Qi Huan's surprised expression, which even became agitated. "Qi Huan, stop pretending. I arranged everything that allowed A-Cheng to get close to you. That company annual meeting was clearly a trap set by A-Cheng and me. This little wolf cub has successfully ensnared you, and now he wants to kick me to the curb? No way!" Han Lin was about to stand up when he got agitated, but Liang Zichen quickly walked over to him and pushed him back into his chair.
"Han Lin, you really don't understand me at all. You've been fooled once, do you think I'd fall for it a second time?" Qi Huan found Han Lin's reaction amusing.
"What do you mean?" Han Lin's expression changed again, now showing surprise. "You mean you weren't drunk at all that day?" Han Lin looked at Qi Huan in astonishment. "Then why did you agree to let A-Cheng take you home?"
Qi Huan slowly moved over to Han Lin's side, staring at him for a while with an air of superiority. "As the boss, shouldn't you find me a free driver?" After saying that, Qi Huan continued to look at Han Lin as if admiring a clown, then smiled.
Han Lin's expression turned to astonishment again, and he fell into a long silence.
"You've always thought you were smart, but is that really true?" Qi Huan snorted coldly, shifting her gaze from Han Lin and sitting back down on the bed. "Now that I know A-Cheng was someone you arranged, how can I know what you're up to if I don't let him take me home?"
"Aren't you afraid..." Han Lin suddenly raised his head, wanting to say something resentfully. But before Han Lin could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by Qi Huan.
"What am I afraid of? Do you think I'm afraid she'll commit a crime? You're so adorable." Qi Huan covered her mouth and laughed while admiring Han Lin's expression. "However, I really have to thank you for this. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to find a man like Acheng."
As she finished speaking, Qi Huan's expression suddenly softened. "Let me tell you what happened that night. I tested A-Cheng many times, and he passed every time." Qi Huan said with a smile.
“That day, I pretended to be drunk and asked A-Cheng to help me back to my room. I figured this was part of your plan, right? I lay on the bed silently for a long time, but A-Cheng didn't do anything out of line. After a while, suddenly a warm towel touched my forehead. I immediately opened my eyes in alarm. At that moment, A-Cheng's face was right in front of me, and there was a hot towel on my forehead. When A-Cheng saw that I was awake, he hurriedly moved away from me, keeping a proper distance. I removed the hot towel from my forehead and, still pretending to be drunk, leaned against the edge of the bed. I patted the edge of the bed, signaling A-Cheng to sit next to me. He did so. At first, we remained silent for a while, then I pretended to be drunk and pounced on A-Cheng.” Qi Huan paused here.
Everyone, including Wang Shen, stared at Qi Huan with surprise. They all shared the same thought: were all outstanding women as good at acting as she was? Of course, Han Lin's facial expression was the most interesting. Acheng was originally a pawn Han Lin had placed beside Qi Huan, but unexpectedly, he had become a tool to turn against him.
"Guess what A-Cheng did?" Qi Huan looked at Wang Shen, then at Liang Zichen, and finally fixed his gaze on Han Lin. "If it were you, wouldn't I be the one in trouble?" Qi Huan said to Han Lin with a sneer.
“But Acheng didn’t. He said, ‘President Qi, you’re drunk,’ and then helped me back to bed. So, Acheng and you are different.” Qi Huan said these words to Han Lin. “I gradually lowered my guard, but still pretended to be drunk and started rambling. Apart from some personal matters, Acheng and I talked a lot, including some interesting things that happened in college. Of course, this also included the theft of the class activity funds.” At this point, Qi Huan looked at Han Lin again and smiled meaningfully.
"And so, Acheng and I talked almost all night. I gradually began to understand Acheng, and in the end, he told me everything about his original thoughts and your plans. When Acheng told me everything, my previously guarded heart completely opened up to him. Later, perhaps because I was really drunk, I even asked Acheng if he would be my boyfriend. And he blushed when he saw me. It was the first time I had ever seen a man blush. In the end, he nodded and agreed." Qi Huan's happy smile was impossible to hide. From what Wang Shen observed, all the smiles on Qi Huan's face and all the happiness in her heart seemed to be related to Acheng. Wang Shen sighed silently in his heart, because he didn't know if this was a blessing or a curse.
"So, do you understand now?" Qi Huan's smile vanished, her eyes fixed intently on Han Lin. "The thing you can use to threaten A-Cheng simply doesn't exist." With that, Qi Huan stood up from the bed and walked back to Han Lin's side.
Just as everyone was speculating about what Qi Huan was planning to do, "slap!" Qi Huan's hand landed on Han Lin's face.
"You!" Han Lin angrily tried to retaliate, but Liang Zichen stopped him. Qi Huan was also pulled aside by Xu Xiaolin, keeping her at a safe distance from Han Lin.
"But how dare you hurt the most important person to me, you deserve to die!" Qi Huan said through gritted teeth. "Now I'm afraid I can't punish you in my own way, but the law won't let you off the hook either!" After saying that, Qi Huan buried her face in Xu Xiaolin's shoulder and cried.
Han Lin laughed twice and replied, "Punish me? Punish me for what? I didn't do anything wrong. Acheng's incident was purely an accident! What evidence do you have to say that I orchestrated Acheng's incident? Huh?"
Hearing Han Lin's words, Qi Huan wiped away her tears and pulled a phone from under the covers. She looked at Han Lin with a cold laugh and waved the phone at him. Then, she opened an audio file and pressed play.
Why did you kill Acheng?
"Why? Because he's blocking my way! Anyone who blocks my way deserves to die!"
...
The recording contained the sounds of Qi Huan and Han Lin talking.
"This method should be familiar to you, right?" Qi Huan pressed the pause button, her eyes sharp as she stared at Han Lin like she was her prey. "I wore these pajamas on purpose for you. Did you think a phone could only be kept in your pocket?"
