You went on a blind date and presented an A-level wanted criminal as a meeting gift?

With the shocking case concluded, Ghost Hand was escorted to Beijing overnight, and Jiangcheng City returned to its former tranquility.

The weekend was sunny and the breeze was gentle.

In the old town of Jiangcheng, the quaint little teahouse in Lin Chen's house was unusually lively today.

The sound of chopping filling came from the kitchen, while the living room was filled with an atmosphere of undercurrents and tension.

Today's topic is: helping Lin's mother, Shen Manyun, make dumplings.

Originally, this was just a normal family activity, but someone leaked the news, and as a result, four stunning beauties showed up uninvited, as if they had planned it all along.

Su Qingge took off her police uniform today and put on a set of casual home clothes, wearing a pink apron.

She was standing in front of the cutting board, skillfully kneading and rolling out the dough, her movements swift and efficient, revealing her virtuous and capable nature.

"Auntie, do you think the thickness of this dough is okay?"

As Su Qingge rolled out the dough, she chatted with Shen Manyun with a smile. Her obedient appearance showed no trace of the fierce mother of the Serious Crimes Unit.

"Oh my, Qingge's cooking skills are absolutely superb! Whoever marries you will be incredibly lucky!"

Shen Manyun was overjoyed, and the more she looked at Su Qingge, the more she liked her.

Sitting on the other side of the dining table was the aloof forensic doctor Jiang Tingxue.

Today she was wearing a simple white shirt and gold-rimmed glasses, exuding a cool and aloof aura with a touch of ascetic beauty.

Jiang Tingxue doesn't know how to roll out dough, but her dumpling-making technique is extremely strange.

She picked up a piece of dough, put in an appropriate amount of filling, and then, with her slender, jade-like hands that she usually used to hold a scalpel, she quickly pinched out a row of perfectly symmetrical pleats with an extremely precise and exquisite technique, as if stitching up a wound.

Each dumpling is exactly the same in size, shape, and number of pleats, just like a precision work of art produced on a factory assembly line!

"Tingxue, your dumplings are so beautiful! They're like works of art. Auntie doesn't even want to cook them."

Shen Manyun exclaimed in surprise.

"Auntie, you flatter me. I'm just used to precise operation."

Jiang Tingxue slightly pushed up her glasses, her cool gaze glancing intentionally or unintentionally at the man lying in the rocking chair in the courtyard.

On the most prominent sofa in the living room sat Ye Qingcheng, the icy female CEO of the Ye Group.

Today she was wearing a high-end Chanel-style suit. Although she tried her best to appear approachable, her queenly aura, which she had long held in a position of power, was still undeniable.

Ye Qingcheng doesn't know how to roll out dough or make dumplings.

But she has the power to make money.

"Aunt Shen, I'm really not very good at cooking."

"So I had the top-grade A5 Wagyu beef and Russian white sturgeon caviar flown in from Japan. I'll let you and your uncle try them later, as a small token of my appreciation."

Ye Qingcheng sipped her tea elegantly, speaking in a calm tone that made people gasp.

Using A5 Wagyu beef to make dumplings?!

This is absolutely outrageously extravagant!

"Oh, Qingcheng, you've come all this way, but why did you have to spend so much money on such expensive things? It's so embarrassing."

Although Shen Manyun said that, her smile became even brighter.

Just then, a cheerful song drifted from the courtyard.

"A flock of ducks swam by under the bridge in front of the gate..."

Su Ke'er, with her baby face, was wearing an adorable JK uniform. She was massaging Lin Zhiyuan's back in the yard while singing in her sweet voice, making Lin Zhiyuan laugh heartily.

"Hahaha! Ke'er is such a lovable girl. If my Lin Chen could have someone as cheerful as you by his side, this old man would wake up laughing in his dreams!"

Lin Zhiyuan laughed heartily.

"Uncle Lin, if you like it, I'll come and sing for you every day from now on!"

Su Ke'er smiled sweetly, but her eyes were fixed on Lin Chen beside her.

Four women, four styles, four directions of attack.

This is practically a war without gunfire!

Meanwhile, Lin Chen, at the center of the storm, was comfortably lounging in a rocking chair in the courtyard, holding a cup of premium Da Hong Pao tea, sipping his tea while mentally ranting.

"My God, this isn't making dumplings, it's a martial arts tournament!"

But who is Lin Chen?

He's a man with god-level psychology and a charm rating of +100!

Dealing with this chaotic situation was like a max-level player slaughtering a newbie village.

Lin Chen put down his teacup, stood up, stretched, and began the ultimate operation of being a "master of balancing things".

He first walked into the kitchen, gently patted Su Qingge's shoulder from behind, and leaned close to her ear, speaking in a magnetic voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Thank you for your hard work, Officer Su."

"Your virtuous and capable nature makes me want to marry you right now."

Su Qingge trembled, her pretty face instantly turning bright red to her ears, and she almost dropped the rolling pin in her hand. Her heart was overflowing with sweetness.

After comforting Su Qingge, Lin Chen walked to the dining table and looked at the rows of perfectly wrapped dumplings Jiang Tingxue had made, praising them without reservation.

"Tingxue, you have such skillful hands."

"Every single fold perfectly matches my aesthetic."

"Just like you, impeccable."

A rare, charming blush appeared on Jiang Tingxue's perpetually icy face.

She lowered her head slightly, a shy smile playing on her lips.

Then, Lin Chen walked to the sofa and sat down next to Ye Qingcheng.

He casually picked up a piece of cut fruit, personally fed it to Ye Qingcheng's lips, and said with a smile.

"Qingcheng, thank you."

"Whether you're a powerful figure outside or here with my parents, you're always so perfect."

"But don't spend so much money next time. I'd rather eat something you make yourself, even if it's just instant noodles."

Ye Qingcheng gave a haughty snort, opened her mouth and took a bite of the fruit, but the pampered happiness in her eyes could not be hidden.

Finally, Lin Chen walked out of the living room and into the yard.

He reached out and affectionately ruffled Su Ke'er's fluffy head, giving her a gentle head pat.

"Ke'er, has your voice been kissed by an angel? Listening to you sing makes all the fatigue of the past few days disappear."

"Hehe! If Brother Lin Chen likes it, I'll only sing it for you from now on!"

Su Ke'er was as happy as a little sparrow and immediately hugged Lin Chen's arm.

With a smooth combo, Lin Chen completely subdued the four stunning beauties who had been secretly competing with each other. Their faces were flushed with happiness, and the atmosphere instantly became incredibly harmonious and warm.

Lin's father, Lin Zhiyuan, and mother, Shen Manyun, watched this scene from the side. They exchanged a glance, both seeing shock and helplessness in each other's eyes.

"Honey, isn't our son's approach... a bit too much like a playboy?"

Lin Zhiyuan said in a low voice.

"You don't know anything! This is called being capable! I think these four girls are all pretty good. If all else fails, we'll move to a bigger house and marry them all!"

Shen Manyun waved her hand domineeringly.

In this joyful and heartwarming moment.

In Lin Chen's mind, the system's cold, mechanical voice suddenly rang out without warning!

[Ding! Warning! A new Crimson Sin value has been detected rapidly approaching the city!]

[Target's Sin Value: Exceeding the Critical Threshold! Extremely Dangerous!]

Lin Chen paused slightly in his teacup, and his previously lazy and relaxed gaze instantly turned as sharp as a knife.
