Huo Lin paused in his actions, his gaze falling on the woman as if waiting for her to speak. He exuded a chilling aura, clearly stating that if her answer was even slightly off, he would show her no mercy.
Xun Ting's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling. Could it be that the villain had misunderstood something?
Despite the chilling aura emanating from the villain, she said, "Sweetheart, I'm afraid I'll hurt your hands if I hit you. It's alright, it's Lin Qingbai's intention. I don't want to dirty your hands."
Huo Lin raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly, "Is that so?"
"Of course! It can't be because we feel sorry for that scumbag! Let's get out of here quickly, let's not stay any longer," Xun Ting said ingratiatingly.
She couldn't possibly still care about Lin Qingbai.
"Okay." Huo Lin's fierce aura subsided considerably, and he smiled as he led her away.
"Xunting! You're not allowed to leave, come back here!" Lin Qingbai struggled to get up from the ground, trying to stop her from leaving, as he watched them prepare to leave.
Ultimately, it was my own negligence; I shouldn't have left any opportunity for others to find out!
However, the two left without stopping, stepping out the door without hesitation, leaving only a loud "bang" as they kicked the door open.
Lin Qingbai lay on the ground, his hands clenched tightly, pounding the ground with his fists, gritting his teeth in anger. He hoped Xun Ting would never fall into his hands again, otherwise…
He will absolutely not show any mercy again!

...
After getting on the bus, Xun Ting breathed a sigh of relief. The anxiety she had felt while with Lin Qingbai had never subsided.
After getting into the car and fastening his seatbelt, Huo Lin didn't drive off immediately. His slender fingers tapped on his phone screen for a while before stopping and looking at the woman next to him.
His eyes held a hint of coldness, and he said in a low voice, "Look at the text message you sent."
Xun Ting took the phone, still confused. She couldn't remember when she had sent a text message to the villain. After seeing the contents of the message, she was even more speechless!
She sent it? Impossible! Having spent so much time with the villain, she knew his personality very well—he was prone to jealousy! She spoke up urgently, afraid that the man would misunderstand.
"My darling, let me explain. I really didn't post this. What kind of weird nickname is 'Innocent Brother'?!"
"You didn't send it?" Huo Lin raised one eyebrow, naturally knowing that she wouldn't send it like that, otherwise she wouldn't have asked him to come and rescue her when she was on the phone.
"Of course, I would never call Lin Qingbai 'Brother Qingbai,' that's disgusting!"
Xun Ting explained excitedly, afraid that the man wouldn't believe her and that she would be unable to clear her name no matter what.
Lin Qingbai has such a perverse sense of humor; he even used her phone to send such disgusting words while she was unconscious.
"Okay." Huo Lin then started the car.
Neither of them spoke a word the entire way.
She scratched her head, realizing she'd forgotten her phone. "Sweetie, I forgot my phone."
"I don't want it anymore." Huo Lin said calmly, his hands moving slowly on the steering wheel. He wasn't interested in the phone that had been mistakenly violated by another man.
"Okay." Xun Ting wasn't particularly attached to the phone. To be honest, she didn't really need it, since she was with the villain every day and didn't need to contact him.
"How were you taken away today?"
"I saw Lin Qingbai after I came out of the restroom, and he said he wanted to put an end to our past and asked me to hug him..." Xun Ting immediately fell silent, feeling a little guilty.
